FASTRAK $5,000 to win “Battle of the North-South 50” POSTPONED for this Weekend at Thunder Mountain Speedway, New Race Date Set for June 1st
**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** May 16th, 2013 FASTRAK PR
(Four Oaks, North Carolina) – Due to the Projected Forecast of 80% chance of precipitation for this Saturday in Hanover, West Virginia. FASTRAK Companies International and Thunder Mountain Speedway have reached a mutual agreement to POSTPONE the Saturday May 18th “Battle of the North-South 50” $5,000 to win event. A new date has already been set in place which will be now rescheduled to June 1st.
“With an almost $20,000 dollars Purse on the line and the weather projections not looking good it was just in the best interest of everyone to POSTPONE this event for another day – June 1st.” stated Brian Haynes – FASTRAK Director of Operations. The race with the FASTRAK Racing Series is a FASTRAK National Event. Meaning it’s going to be drawing drivers and teams from all the regions of FASTRAK. Paying also $5,000 to win, it’s the biggest racing spectacle to ever hit Hanover, West Virginia’s 4/10th mile newly high-banked track nestled in “coal-mine” country.
Everybody is certainly “hyped and excited” to see this racing event take place as the FASTRAK Racing Series always puts on an awesome performance. The FASTRAK events are always a well officiated and professional show. With the weather that affected West Virginia tracks and much of the Southeast United States last weekend. We all took a gamble playing against the weather. We just do not want to take that chance for this weekend’s big race event at Thunder Mountain Speedway. Plus the weather looks to be a lot worse than last weekend’s forecast for Saturday.
It will still have a $20,000+ purse up for grabs and payout $5,000 to the winner of the “Battle of the North-South 50”. The race event will still be a FASTRAK National event, the only thing that changes is the race date. We are really absolutely looking forward to putting on the biggest racing event thus far ever at “Where the Mountain Roars” – Thunder Mountain Speedway but we’ll just have to wait a few more weeks before it comes to fruition.
The next event on the schedule for the 10th Anniversary “Decade of Speed Tour” for the FASTRAK Racing Series is our Memorial Day Weekend extravaganza. The 8th Annual $30,000 FASTRAK Triple Crown is set for 3 big nights of racing – May 24th, 25th, 26th. Each event will be paying $2,000 to win and a guaranteed $250 to start. The races itself are very unique with 3 different style track and configurations. Friday May 24th we’re at the 3/8th mile Beckley Motorsports Park in Prosperity, West Virginia. On Saturday May 25th we return to the always exciting ½ mile Wythe Raceway nestled off I-81 in the Allegheny Mountains of Rural Retreat, Virginia. Then we’ll close out the 2013 FASTRAK Triple Crown with the return of FASTRAK at the 4/10th mile Princeton Speedway in Princeton, West Virginia.
