Southern Nationals Series Schedule Complete with Addition of North Georgia Speedway Date!

(BRASSTOWN, NORTH CAROLINA) Nearly a month ago, nine of the ten dates for the 2011 Southern Nationals Series schedule were released and for a month, fans and drivers have speculated which Southeastern venue would get the Thursday, July 14 race. Today, officials from the Southern Nationals Series announced that they would fill that spot by making their first-ever trip to the North Georgia Speedway in Chatsworth, Georgia. The July 14 date at North Georgia will pay $5,300 to the winner, giving the series a record-high six $5,300 to win purses in the ten-race span.

The newly-announced show at the North Georgia Speedway also sets up a lucrative four-race extended weekend for the cars and stars of the Southern Nationals Series in the Peachtree State of Georgia. Events at the North Georgia Speedway (Thursday), Swainsboro Raceway (Friday), Screven Motor Speedway (Saturday), and Rome Speedway (Sunday) all pay $5,300 to win and $530 to start.
