FASTRAK@Wythe Unnoficial results
Rural Retreat, VA (Sept-1) Austin Dillon, in his last race on dirt before making his NASCAR debut next weekend, used a power move on the outside entering turn one on lap 45 to advance from his 4th place position in the running order to overtake both Lee Cooper and Shannon Buckingham in one lap, moving on to challenge and pass leader Royce Bray on the next circuit around the ½ mile Wythe Raceway and go on to win the 75 lap $10,000 To Win ‘Pro late Model Nationals’
The 5th installment of Wythe Raceway owner Fred Browns 'Pro Late Model Nationals' lived up to all the build up leading up to tonight’s spectacular event. The race was one that had something for everybody, close quarters racing, multiple position changes lap after lap, and even some controversial retaliation.
But in the end, when the checkered flag was unfurled, Austin Dillon is able to embark on what promises to be a bright future in NASCAR, having capped off his career on dirt with the biggest win of his career.

FASTRAK-09 changes to benefit teams
After some long hard discussions The FASTRAK Racing Series has found several ways to benefit the teams of the series in 2009.
1) ALL SE TOURING PURSES HAVE BEEN INCREASED FROM 9TH - 24TH
2) MOST (98%) OF PURSES ARE $3,000 TO WIN or HIGHER.
3) TEAMS NOT MAKING MAIN EVENT will have a paid BONUS FEATURE. If time does not allow, part of entry fee will be reimbursed for teams not making main event.
4) 99% of all races are now one day shows including $3000, $5000 purses. Some will have open practice the night before, but no qualifying.
5) There are now $2000, $3000, $4000, $5000, $7500 and $10,000 to win purses.
6) Several teams from across the country have suggested the Grand Nationals pay $25,000 to win instead of $50,000 and increase the pay-out through the field and/or pay more positions. This will be discussed at the National Points Banquet with all our race teams that Saturday January 24th. Its your money so either way is good with us.
7) Going back to Eldora August 1st. $5000 to win, one day show. CHASSIS CHALLENGE! Friday night open practice - chassis manufacturers to be there to help our teams. SATURDAY MORNING: chassis seminars with participting manufacturers set up classroom style. NO CHARGE TO OUR RACE TEAMS.

10) Currently working on TRIPLE CROWN during the 09 season. 3 races 3 different tracks in 3 days. Driver with most points in 3 days receives a crown, robe and scepter as Triple Crown Champion. (to become annual ervent)
11) New engine sealing system now in place. Provided to FASTRAK teams and FASTRAK weekly sanctioned tracks. NO MORE BLUEPRINTING OF NEW ENGINES!
12) All touring events live audio via the web. Commercials will be pre-programmed for cautions and dead air time. We are getting a REAL annnouncer, not Stan. lol!!
13) New Web Site for the SE Region, seperate from the Corporate web site.
14) New sealing system will have all info on corporate website to make tech much easier for local track tech inspectors. They can pull up the corporate web site and see if seal serial numbers match serial number of engine block.
15) Raceiver will be the Offical Timing and Scoring Company of the FASTRAK Racing Series. They will be at every SE Touring event with transponder scoring.

FASTRAK-Natl Points Fund ALL classes in '09
FASTRAK Introduces National Weekly Championships for ALL classes in 2009!
Carnesville, GA (Dec-23) The FASTRAK Racing Series Weekly Racing Division now has NATIONAL WEEKLY CHAMPIONSHIPS for any class in 2009. 4 cylinders, Enduro, Street Stocks, Front Wheel Drive, Modifieds (big block, small block, open wheel), Sprint Cars, “crate” Late Model, Limited Late Models and Super Late Models will all have the opportunity to participate in anywhere from a $3000 NATIONAL WEEKLY CHAMPIONSHIP for 4 cylinders all the way to $10,000 TO WIN for Super Late Models.
ALL WEEKLY CLASSES WILL BE HANDLED THROUGH THE CORPORATE OFFI CE. (678) 935-7304
Super Late Models (includes Limited late models): $10,000 to win
“Crate” Late Models: $10,000 to win
Sprint Cars (Winged and non winged) $5000 to win
Modifieds (Open wheel mod, big block mod, small block mod) $4000 to win
V-8 steel body (includes street stock, super stock, endure, etc) $3000 to win
4 cylinders (includes stock 4, advanced 4, mod 4, etc) $3000 to win
Front Wheel Drive (includes U-Car, Hornets, etc.) $3000 to win
“We have had a tremendous amount of calls in the last three years from other classes” stated FASTRAK Founder Stan Lester. “Amazingly enough, the majority of the calls this year have been from chassis builders and Super Late Model teams. The question is “when are you going to do something with the supers”? Well, now that begins” said Lester. “We start with a very simply designed NATIONAL WEEKLY CHAMPIONSHIP. Same plan we did with the crate late models. There will be no rules for this class. They use their track rules therefore no one has to change anything. That is except tires. Goodyear is the company that has supported FASTRAK since 2004.
So to run for 100% of posted point fund amounts, the track has to use the Goodyear tire for that class. However, unlike most series that I know of, FASTRAK does not mandate the Goodyear only tire rule. You can use other tires; you are just running for 50% of the posted amounts if you do so. It’s the same deal we use in the crate class” said Lester. “From the feedback we get, everyone understands that. What’s fair is fair and most race teams have no problem with that. $5000 to win instead of $10,000 is still a pretty good payday for teams that run weekly tracks every week. Some people just can’t afford to travel” said Lester. “This is a way for those teams to also have something on a NATIONAL scale to race for. They come across the stage at our annual National Awards Banquet in Nashville TN, no different than the other teams and classes in the country. I really think with the down turn of the economy this is a great way for tracks to go”.
“We only posted this a week ago” said Michael Hurley, PR Director of FASTRAK. “The phones have not stopped ringing. We have been working until 9:00 almost every night. The response has been amazing. Of course our crate Late Model Series has been the strongest for us, but I can really foresee some of the other classes gaining popularity very quickly. For instance 4 cylinder teams have been driving the track owners crazy or that’s what the track owners are telling us anyway. The system worked great in 08 for the FASTRAK “crate” Late Model Series. There is simply no reason it won’t work in other classes as well”.
