CHARLOTTE, NC (March 26) – In just over three years, the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) Pro Late Model division has produced some of the top talent in short track. Seen as a proving ground for racers looking to eventually make the move up to the PASS Super Late Models, drivers like Tate Fogleman, Jody Measamer, Trevor Noles, and Jeff Batten credit their time in PASS Pro Late Models with helping ease their transition to the much faster Supers.

Although some chilly World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing-type weather is
on tap for Saturday night, expect plenty of red-hot racing for week number
three of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Racing Series at New Smyrna Speedway.
The Super Late Models will be in action for 50 laps and $1200 to win along
with the Super Stocks, Sunshine Seamless Gutters Mini Stocks and the Bombers.
One driver looking to turn his luck around in the Super Late Model division
will be veteran David Rogers of Orlando as he begins his 42nd year behind the
wheel of a stock car. For the first time in recent memory, Rogers was winless
in 2014 and he wants to end that streak as quickly as possible this season.
As usual, Rogers will have a talent-laden roster to contend with including the
likes of Daniel Keene, Jr., Brad May and possibly Tim Russell who is putting
the finishing touches on a new “hot rod.”

(Stafford Springs, CT)—When the green flag falls on the 2015 season at Stafford Motor Speedway, Belchertown, MA native Adam Gray will be looking to join some very select company. In 28 years of Late Model competition at Stafford, only two drivers have ever won three consecutive track championships. Phil Rondeau was the first driver to accomplish the feat from 1987-1989 and he was followed by Ryan Posocco in 2003-2005. Gray is the two-time defending track champion and he thinks he and his #97 Meadows Motor Car team can once again be in the thick of the championship chase.
