IF THE RULES DON'T SAY YOU CAN DO IT... DON'T.

ALL CARS ARE SUBJECT TO OFFICIALS APPROVAL.

To all racers:                                                                                                                

        I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for considering Fastrak as your series to race in 2006. The one thing I have constantly seen in the series is teams helping other teams. To me that is important. As one racer expressed to me when asked what he was going to do for 2006. He told them he was going to race Fastrak. He said he had never had more fun in ten years racing than he did in 2005 with Fastrak. On one occasion he had ruined a radiator on a Friday night and had 6 brought to him that Saturday morning at his motel room. That’s what we like to see and hear about Fastrak. Races helping racers. Every team will need it at some point. Having fun again and some of the best racing in this country.

        Things have continued to grow with Fastrak for 2006. The $250,000.00 National Points Fund is second only to the World Of Outlaws in the dirt late model racing world. I think you guys deserve it. After all you are the ones that support the racing and it’s about time you were rewarded for it. Hopefully this program for 2006 will do that for you. We took a lot of time designing this program in hopes of making it as fair as possible for everyone involved. I hope each and everyone a great success in the 2006 season. In our book, you are all Champions!
