New Era of FASTRAK Pro Late Model Racing begins tomorrow at Virginia Motor Speedway

Jamaica, VA – When you get track owner Bill Sawyer and FASTRAK Racing / Ultimate Super Late Model Series founder Stan Lester together you never know what they will come up with when it comes to promoting a race. With the running of this Saturday’s $20,000 to win Aaron’s King of the Commonwealth and the $3000 to win FASTRAK National Tour races the two have come up with the idea to present one of the largest 4-wide salutes to the fans in history. The fans will be saluted with no less than a 48 car 4-wide salute accompanied by fireworks and a cannon shot from the Third Richmond Howitzer re-enactors.

“I told Bill this might sound crazy but I want to do a 48 car 4-wide salute to the fans with fireworks using both divisions of competitors and he said I like crazy let’s try it,� stated Stan Lester. “We can’t thank the fans enough for supporting dirt racing and racing at Virginia Motor Speedway, they deserve a huge salute,� concluded Lester.

The $20,000 to win Aaron’s King of the Commonwealth will feature a who’s who in dirt late model competitors and is the largest paying event in Ultimate Super Late Model Series history. It will be co-headlined with a $3000 to win FASTRAK National Tour event for Pro Late Models.

Spectator gates open at 4pm with on-track action beginning at 6pm with hot laps for both divisions followed by qualifying, heats, B-Main(s) and features. This is a must see event for late model racing fans!
