The New England Truck Series visits Monadnock Speedway this Saturday night for the first leg of the American Sign Triple Crown. American Sign Inc. will put bonus money on the line for the top three finishers over the course of the three triple crown events, but if one driver can win all three events they will take home the entire bonus. Top contenders include Duane Noll who was victorious at every NETS Monadnock Speedway event in 2013, and Andy Lindeman who has already won on the Winchester, NH oval this season. Bert Ouelette, Allen Coates, and Chris Correll are also expected top challengers for the American Sign bonus. The New England Truck Series and Granite State Pro Stock Series will headline an action packed evening of racing featuring 9 divisions on Monadnock’s high banked bullring. Racing starts at 5pm.

CHARLOTTE, NC (May 27) – As the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South Super Late Models prepare to return to Southern National Motorsports Park this weekend, the series is in the midst of one of its most competitive seasons ever. Through five races so far this year, there have been four different winners. Only Daniel Hemric has been able to double up in victory lane in 2014, yet that was with two different teams, Woodman Racing and Carswell Motorsports.
This Saturday night’s 2nd Annual Dogwood Blossom 150 could very well see the fifth different PASS South Super Late Model winner this season. Southern National Motorsports Park in eastern North Carolina has traditionally been a stronghold for Super Late Model racing. PASS South competitors John Batten and Joe Heigl are both former Super Late Model track champions at the high banked, 4/10 mile speedway.

The newly proposed Mini-Cup division that was scheduled to run weekly in the Budweiser Oxford Championship Series on Friday nights will be moved to the Go-Kart Series that is scheduled to start in June of 2014.
“The division just can’t get off the ground stated Oxford Plains Speedway, General Manager, Dick Therrien. We had quite a bit of interest during our organizational meetings, but the interest apparently were just tire kickers, and unfortunately you can’t race with just a couple of cars. We want to thank Barry Morris and Parker Varney for supporting us, and hopefully some others will join in when the Go-Kart season kicks off.”
Oxford Plains Speedway officials are looking at expanding the numbers of races for the new four cylinder Bandit division which will now debut on Friday, May 30th. A revised schedule will be released in the very near future.
