PASS
South returns to Concord Speedway during Charlotte Speedweeks 2010
CHARLOTTE,
NC (January 27) – After a nearly three year absence, the Pro All Stars Series (PASS)
South Super Late Models will return to the Concord (NC) Speedway this coming Memorial Day
weekend. The PASS South Super Late Models
will race on the unique half-mile tri-oval on Saturday, May 29th, on the eve of
the Coca-Cola 600 just up the road at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.
“We’re really excited to have the PASS
South Super Late Models back at the Concord Speedway in 2010,” said PASS President
Tom Mayberry. “The 2010 PASS South
schedule is the best we’ve ever had and we feel Concord will add even more flavor to
the diverse group of tracks we’re slated to race at this year. A lot of fans travel to the Charlotte area in
May for the festivities at Charlotte Motor Speedway and we look forward to having them at Concord
on May 29th for some great short track action.
I’d also like to thank Dwight Davies and the entire staff at Concord
for helping make this race possible.”
Concord
Speedway has a rich history of Super Late Model racing.
The legendary Big 10 Series attracted many of the nation’s top drivers
and made short track superstars of drivers such as Rich Bickle, Freddie Query, Jack
Sprague, and Hal Goodson.
“Concord
Speedway is proud to welcome back the PASS South series in 2010,” said Concord
Speedway’s Dwight Davies. “We hope
short track fans from across the country come to Concord in May to see the fastest cars on
America’s Fastest Half-Mile Tri-Oval.”

Jake Scott was the man to beat in Sport division action over the weekend.
The young athlete from Port Jefferson, NY, claimed Saturday's Sport Super
Stock final over Chris Ingles and Mike Billow, then repeated the performance
Sunday as Billow and Jesse James Bonaduce filled out the podium. Joe Bishop
piloted his Ski-doo to victory in the Sport Stock 600 final, while Scott
settled for second and Billow snagged another third.
In Junior division action over the weekend, Montana Jess registered a hat
trick while Edward Bandel, Hunter Patenaude, Leo Patenaude, Wade McPherson,
Jayme Lynch and Mason Pierce also earned final round wins. Jess, known in
snocross circles as “The Flyin’ Onion,” piloted his Ski-doo to victories on
both Saturday and Sunday.
Other final round winners over the weekend in Belmont include Rene
Desrochers (Plus 35 Masters); Glynn Desilva (Plus 25 Stock); Steffanie
Lemieux (Women Stock 600 Saturday and Sun.); and Jared White (Trail Stock
600 Sunday).
Rock Maple Racing would like to thank event promoter Craig Harmon, Lodge at
Belmont general manager Rick Newman, the Belmont Bogie Busters, Bobcat of
New Hampshire and everybody who worked so hard to make last weekend's event
such a success. With perfect weather conditions on Saturday and sunshine for
most of Sunday, fans turned out in big numbers to enjoy the high-flying
excitement of snocross.
Teams and officials from RMR will now enjoy a weekend off before a trip to
Farmington, NY, on Feb. 5-6, for the ISOC Eastern Nationals. For full
