Blair Claims Monumental FASTRAK Northeast Inaugural Race at Marion Center, PA
** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** August 25th, 2013 FASTRAK PR


(Marion Center, Pennsylvania) – The ¼ mile facility operated by the Potts family from the get go has one nickname to describe the Marion Center Speedway – “Thrill on the Hill”. Oh what a thrill it turned out to be on Saturday August 24th as the Inaugural “Triple Crown” Finale was to be decided for the FASTRAK City Chevrolet Northeast Touring Division. When it was said and done 2 champions we’re crowned. #111 Max Blair picking up the first ever Touring win at Marion Center and #6 of the year, #20 Wayne Robertson from Corning, New York being hailed the Inaugural FASTRAK NE “Triple Crown” Champion, we will have a Press Release on the Triple Crown coming shortly. After the driver introductions we’re concluded and the packed faithful saw a spectacular “FIREWORKS” display with the 4-wide salute ungluing the crowd with awe, history was set to be made for 35 laps up on “The Thrill on the Hill” as the “Nation’s First and Premier Pro Late Model Series in the Country” was ready to Rock n’ Roll.


At the start Moyer and Prosser would battle side by side the 1st lap around but exiting off turn three Moyer slipped up and allowed #77 Joel Prosser in the “Amsoil Express” to move to the top spot causing the 1st lead change of the race. Prosser was able to hold on for a few circuits when on lap 9 he slipped up “top-shelf” in turn four. This allowed Rochester Hills, PA native #2 Rocket of Andrew Satterlee to relinquish the top spot. A few cautions fell but the BIG one on “The Hill” happened on a restart when almost 9 cars we’re entangled with carnage off the 2nd turn on lap 15. Several top contenders we’re collected putting many on the hook for the evening. We go down to the final laps while the race continued a battle quickly ensued to a rivalry between the Rocket chassis’ of #111 Blair and #2 Satterlee. Some of the most intense racing was witnessed as they put it all on the line to the finish. A caution would fall when the field was on the white flag when #B4 Steve Beatty went for a spin in turn 2. This set up a Green White Checkered finish, Blair and Satterlee to battle in the shootout for the win but also #14 Dan Angelicchio was ready to strike. Also eventual Triple Crown Champion #20 Wayne Robertson rallied from 10th on the last restart to pass seven cars to the finish solidly. 3rd thru 5th would battle hard even three wide coming to the finish but they couldn’t catch #111 Max Blair taking his 6th FASTRAK touring win of 2013. #2 Satterlee settled for 2nd, 3rd to Triple Crown champ #20 Wayne Robertson, 4th went to #14 Dan Angelicchio and rounding out the top 5 #55 Joe Martin.
