Print Friendly

The time has come, finally! Teams have worked all year towards the FASTRAK Racing Series GRAND NATIONAL “Grand Finale”. Teams from across the country have run their nights 1 and 2 in their respective regions and now they all come together for night 3 and the naming of the 2010 GRAND NATIONAL CHAMPION worth a cool $30,000 in point money. The anticipation could be cut with a knife not only by the race teams but also the dirt late model fans in the country as well as the sponsors.

 

The event will be held in Rural Retreat VA home of the infamous Wythe Raceway. One of the few high bank half mile venues left in the country you can actually race at. It’s not uncommon to see these dirt late models racing at over 130 MPH three and four wide through the turns. “I am really excited about having the GRAND NATIONAL final event at Wythe Raceway” said Fred Brown of Wythe. “Fans are already calling from everywhere including Wisconsin, Maryland, Tennessee, West Virginia, Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Canada, both Carolinas, Georgia and Kentucky. I think we are going to have a packed house”.

 

There will also be a huge PIT PARTY/JAM SESSION in the pits on Friday night after the open practice session scheduled to end promptly at 9:00 PM. Fans are welcome to come into the pit area after practice and bring their favorite dish, plus a musical instrument to pay by the huge bonfire with the race teams. Only $5.00 fan admission on Friday in the grandstands and their pass will be good for the pit party afterwards.

 

Friday Grandstands Open: 4:00 PM                          Only $5.00 admission including Pit Party/Jam Session

Saturday Grandstands Open: 4:00 Hot Laps 5:30     Only $15.00

Let’s explain how the points work. FASTRAK has a National Weekly Championship paying $10,000 to win and through the top 50 teams in the country. Those teams count their best 15 races toward their points. Then comes the Regional Touring Championships for the teams that tour in their regions to the larger shows paying a minimum of $5000 to win, scored by a total number of race points. Then it all culminates to the GRAND NATIONAL point chase. The points start all over again at zero. Each region holding its on nights 1 and 2 then all the teams come together for night 3. The driver with the highest number of points at the end of night 3 wins an incredible $30,000 in cash to be awarded at the national point banquet. That’s plus a purse on night three to boot! The balance of the top 24 in points also pays handsome amounts including 2nd $20,000, 3rd $10,000, and so forth all the way to $1000 for 24th. The total of point monies makes it the single largest point grass roots championship in the entire world.
