CHARLOTTE, NC (April 30) – With a quarter of the season behind them, the racers and fans of the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South Super Late Models are raving about the competition thus far. In the first four races of the year, three have been decided in the final two laps and the other with a pass for the win with 10 laps to go by Daniel Hemric who nearly lost a lap in the early stages at Greenville. Hemric followed that win in the Woodman Racing #41 at Greenville up by driving the Carswell Motorsports #98 around Cole Timm with two laps to go for the win at Dillon. At Orange County, Roger Lee Newton and Trevor Noles battled from the drop of the green flag of the Orange Blossom Special to Newton taking the checkered flag as Noles spun across the finish line. Then, at Hickory, hometown favorite Tyler Church appeared to be on his way to a popular win until a bump by DJ Shaw entering turn three on the final lap sent Church up the track and Shaw to victory lane.
