Austin Theriault: ACT Late Model Tour
Lee USA Speedway Race Preview
THE STORY
Austin Theriault of Fort Kent, Maine, makes his official ACT Late Model Tour debut with RPM Motorsports when the 2011 season begins with the NH Governor’s Cup 150 at Lee USA Speedway in Lee, N.H., on Sunday afternoon, April 17. Theriault left his family-owned team during the offseason to drive for the seven-time ACT championship organization, and this will be his first points race with RPM after competing in two non-championship events at New Smyrna (Fla.) Speedway in February. Theriault has competed twice at Lee USA Speedway in a Late Model; once in this event last season and once in a weekly NASCAR Whelen All-American Series event at the .333-mile facility.
