Doiron Eager To Tackle North Wilkesboro
Reigning PASS Rookie of the Year Ready To Shine In ‘The Race’
BERWICK, Maine – Joey Doiron figures he was probably only four years old the last time the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series competed at North Wilkesboro (N.C.) Speedway, but he sensed the history as soon as he visited the venerable racing grounds on a recent trip.
“I think I used to watch the races then, but I honestly don’t remember if I ever saw North Wilkesboro or not,” Doiron said this week. “It’s a really cool place, though. It’s like stepping back in time when you get there. It was kept up pretty well for no one really touching it in 15 years or so.”

PASS South Ready To Kick Off 2011 Season at Anderson
CHARLOTTE, NC (3/5) – The winter months are hard for everybody. Weather extremes and fewer hours of daylight are just a few of the reasons people choose to stay inside at this time of year. For race fans and competitors winter can be downright excruciating. Not only is it cold outside, but there’s no racing to be found anywhere.
But, with Spring just a few days away, the smell of burning rubber and race fuel abounds as Pro All Star Series (PASS) South Super Late Model teams begin testing at short tracks throughout the Southeast. Teams will soon put together all the things they’ve learned during the off season when the 2011 PASS South season begins on March 11-12 with the Electric City 150 at the Anderson (SC) Motor Speedway.
PASS South has only raced at Anderson once and quite a bit has changed since back in 2007. PASS South has grown from its early days when people were not sure if Super Late Model racing was viable in the South anymore to one of the premier short track racing divisions in the country. Anderson Motor Speedway has seen a similar transition. After nearly 50 years in operation, time had begun to take its toll on the 3/8 mile track that was paved back in 1986. Now under the operation of promoter Sylvia Porter, Anderson Motor Speedway has seen numerous upgrades to the track and facility and has become a premier destination for drivers and fans alike.
