Field Set for the PASS South \u201cTHE RACE\u201d at North Wilkesboro Speedway
\n44 Drivers Set to Take the Green Flag for $75,000.00 Sunday Afternoon<\/strong><\/p>\n

A total of 77 drivers entered the gates at North Wilkesboro Speedway (NC) this weekend to partake in the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South presented by JE Pistons and Roush Yates Performance Products \u201cTHE RACE,\u201d which is scheduled to take place Sunday afternoon, April 10th. After qualifying, heat races and a couple last chance events, the 44-car field is set to take the green flag at the historic North Carolina track, where the winner will take home $75,000.00, along with five drivers eligible for the additional $25,000.00 bonus.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Stephen Nasse etched his name in the record books, earning the McGunegill Engine Performance Fast Time Award with a new track record of 18.700 seconds. Justin Wakefield, Ryan Moore, Brian Ickler, Bubba Pollard, Augie Grill, Pat Kelly, Andy Loden, Johnny Clark, Jay Fogleman, Cale Gale, Kenzie Ruston, Trevor Sanborn, TJ Reaid and Chris Eggleston all locked themselves into the field as the fastest 15 during qualifying. The top-10 drivers redrew for their starting positions, with Clark and Fogleman starting THE RACE on the front row followed by Kelly, Loden, Grill, Pollard, Wakefield, Moore, Ickler and Nasse.
\n
\nFriday evening, five 25-lap heat races were run with the top-three drivers in each race transferring into THE RACE. Winners of the heat races were Patrick Laperle, Ross Kenseth, Ryan Blaney, Jeff Choquette and Preston Peltier. Others that transferred in during the heat races were Jody Lavender, Rebecca Kasten, Mario Gosslin, Brandon Ward, Erik Darnell, Heath Hindman, Corey Williams, Mike Rowe, Garrett Evans and Scott Mulkern.<\/p>\n

Saturday, the balance of the non-qualified drivers raced in two 40-lap last chance races with just the winners transferring into THE RACE. Taking the victories in the two races were Trey Mitchell and Alex Fleming.<\/p>\n

Provisionals to complete the 44-car field went to Ben Rowe, Joey Doiron, Steve Legendre, Cassius Clark, Gary Smith, John Batten, Jimmy Weller, Scott Alexander, Randy Turner and Gray Gaulding. Geoff Bodine and Sterling Marlin were added to the back of the field as North Wilkesboro Speedway track provisionals.<\/p>\n

In addition to the $75,000.00 that will go to the winner, five drivers have a chance at an additional $25,000.00 bonus. Clark, Fogleman, Peltier, Legendre and Rowe competed full time in either the PASS North or PASS South season in 2010, as well as the four National events, making them eligible for the extra cash if they win THE RACE.<\/p>\n
