2015 PASS SOUTH RACE

Preston Peltier Dominates For 3rd
Easter Bunny 150 Win At Hickory

HICKORY, NC (April 4) - Preston Peltier took the lead from Derek Scott, Jr. on a lap 44 restart and never looked back to take a dominating win in the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 Saturday night at Hickory Motor Speedway for the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) Super Late Models. Peltier's third Easter Bunny 160 triumph was his sixth PASS South win at the speedway and pushed his series leading wins total to 14.

"I was a little worried that a caution would come out at the end, but thank God it didn't and we were able to get this Hamke Dodge to victory lane," said Peltier. "This suits my driving style because Hickory is a momentum racetrack. I learned the hard way how to save tires and we did that tonight. It just feels great to get another Easter Bunny win."

Texas rookie Derek Scott, Jr. paced the field in qualifying for his first PASS South Super Late Model race with a lap of 80.286 miles per hour around the legendary 3/8 mile speedway. Following the top ten qualifiers redraw, Scott would slot into the seventh starting position, while Peltier and 3-time PASS National Champion, Ben Rowe, would move up to the front row.

Peltier would take the early lead, but Scott wasted little time working his way to the front moving into the lead by lap 17. The first caution flag of the race waved on lap 43 when Trevor Sanborn checked up to avoid Tate Fogleman and was tapped by Jeff Batten, sending Sanborn for a spin in turn four. At this point, 2006 Easter Bunny 150 winner, Mike Rowe, had made his way into the top 10 after starting back in 22nd.
When the green flag waved to resume racing, Peltier was able to power by Scott on the outside for the lead. The caution would wave two more times for a spin on the backstretch by Nick Robinson on lap 78 and again for the stalled car of Jason Stanley on lap 89.

The most serious accident of the night occurred on the ensuing restart when Jody Measamer and Ryan Moore made contact on the backstretch while racing for fifth. Both cars hit the outside wall with Measamer's Aquavapor Chevrolet briefly going over Moore's hood and onto two wheels. Walker Yates and Jimmy Doyle both spun in turn three to avoid the accident.

Back under way, Peltier continued to lead over defending PASS South Super Late Model champion, Tyler Church. All eyes were focused on two veterans making their way up through the field though. Mike Rowe made it as high as third and Jeff Fultz, who had dropped back to 27th early in the race, was in the top 10 by lap 108.
Peltier worked his way through lapped traffic over the remaining laps and had a 10 car length advantage over Church when he took the checkered flag. Following Peltier and Church at the finish were Mike Rowe, Ben Rowe, and Brandon Setzer. Rounding out the top 10 were PASS South points leader, Zane Smith, Fultz, Trevor Noles, Scott, and Shane Lee.

Kodie Conner swept both ends of a PASS Pro Late Model doubleheader by taking the wins on Friday and Saturday night. In Saturday night's 50 lap main event Chandler Smith finished second over Matt Murphy, Jake Spillers, and Ryan Krachun.

Matthew Lundstrom parlayed a big early lead to a win in the USAC Eastern Midgets feature over Scott Hunter and Chris Lamb. Steve Johns, Jr. and Alex Pacheco were the Legends winners and Aaron Pierce took the checkered flag for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars.

The PASS South Super Late Models and PASS Pro Late Models will be in action again on Saturday, April 25 for the Bash At The Beach 2 at Myrtle Beach Speedway, along with the Pee Dee/Coastal Super Trucks and Bell & Bell Vintage Modifieds.

"You know, the Easter Bunny 150 has really become one of the biggest races of the year and Iron Thunder is a place a lot of our fans and racers like to attend when they're in town for the race," said PASS President Tom Mayberry. "The first PASS South event ever held was at Hickory and we felt like this was a great way to celebrate 10 years of the Easter Bunny 150. With the Must See Sprints joining us and everything we've got going on at the track Friday and Saturday night, this was a great way to welcome everyone into town."

Iron Thunder Saloon & Grill is a favorite destination for the PASS contingent when the series comes to town and is glad to welcome every into town with lots of good food, drinks, and fun.

"PASS is helping kick off our Thursday bike night with the Racers Welcome Party by sending over some incredible race cars and drivers that will be signing autographs. We hope everyone will come out and enjoy the fun," said Niki Watkins of Iron Thunder Saloon & Grill.

Iron Thunder has several other area locations in addition to Hickory, including Concord and Mooresville, NC.

Some of the drivers currently planning to attend are 3-time PASS National Champion, Ben Rowe, inaugural Easter Bunny 150 winner, Mike Rowe, PASS South Super Late Model points leader, Zane Smith, along with Jody Measamer, Tate Fogleman, PASS Pro Late Model racers Zachary Dabbs and Matt Murphy, and Must See Racing Sprint Car driver Jimmy McCune, who is excited to get his season started at a new track for him.

BEN ROWE #4N

Ben Rowe Carries Momentum To Hickory For 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150

CHARLOTTE, NC (April 2) - For the first time in a long time, 3-time Pro All Stars Series National Champion, Ben Rowe, has things going his way as he looks forward to this weekend's 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway. In addition to his national championships, Rowe is a 4-time PASS AIM Recycling Super Late Model champion, he has won more races than any other driver in series history, and even captured the PASS South Super Late Model title in 2009. Rowe has struggled in recent years, however, going winless in the North for the last two seasons and not scoring any top five finishes in 2014. But, there was a glimmer of hope late last year as the Turner, ME veteran finished in the top five in both of the final PASS National Championship races of the year at Caraway Speedway and Southern National Motorsports Park. And Rowe was able to put the final piece in the puzzle with a win in the Peach Blossom Special at Anderson Motor Speedway two weeks ago.

"We built all new cars last year with Dean Clattenburg and brought them back home to Maine and struggled with them," said Rowe, after ending a winless streak that lasted over a year. "Dean has actually taken over as crew chief and really turned us around. The chassis is good, it drives good, we have speed back in the car, and that's what you need. They've been able to get the car where I can drive it and be there at the end."

The Easter Bunny 150 is certainly a race that suits Rowe's driving style. Rowe has been a contender each time he has raced at Hickory Motor Speedway, winning the Easter Bunny 150 in 2009 and charging from outside the top 20 to win the Over The Mountain 150 in 2011.

"A lot of good cars will be showing up to qualify for that race so getting a good qualifying spot so you can ride and have a lot of patience, that's the name of the game at Hickory," said Rowe. "It's a track that's pretty slick, you bounce around a lot and don't have much grip. It's a fun racetrack. Once you get started and get into the race, it's more of a head game than who has the fastest car."

One driver Ben Rowe will have to contend with is one that he has known his entire life, his dad, Mike. The former 3-time AIM Recycling Oxford 250 presented by Kenny U-Pull winner returns to competition at Hickory for the first time in a number of years. Back in 2006, Mike Rowe won the inaugural Easter Bunny 150 en route to claiming the PASS South Super Late Model title. Ben knows his dad will definitely be one of the drivers to beat on Saturday.

"He's going to run the 7 car for Petit Motorsports that finished right behind me at Caraway and it's a good car for sure," said Ben Rowe. "He's asked me a lot of questions and we know it will be a lot of fun. I always try to keep one up on him because he's about a hundred up on me everywhere else so I want to try and get my second Easter Bunny win before he gets his second."

The Rowes will have a strong field of challengers for this weekend's Easter Bunny 150 led by PASS South Super Late Model points leader, Zane Smith, along with fellow championship contenders Jody Measamer, Jimmy Doyle, and Tate Fogleman. In addition to Fogleman, Woodman Racing will also be fielding entries for Joey Doiron and Steve Halpin. Trevor Sanborn and Eric St. Gelais will be making the trek down south to Hickory. Former two-time Easter Bunny 150 winner, Preston Peltier, returns behind the wheel of Robert Hamke's Dodge, along with 2008 Hickory winner, Heath Hindman. PASS veterans Trevor Noles, Jeff Batten, Trey Jarrell, Lucas Jones, and Walker Yates will each be seeking their first Easter Bunny 150 wins, while Texas native Derek Scott, Jr. will be hoping to make his first career PASS start.

The Easter Bunny 150 weekend will expand to two days, beginning on Friday afternoon, April 3 with practice for the PASS Super Late Models, Must See Racing Sprint Cars and support divisions and will be followed by twin 25 lap qualifying races for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars and features for the PASS Pro Late Models and Legends cars. Then, on Saturday, April 4, the PASS Super Late Models will compete in the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 along with the 40 lap "Southern Showdown" for the Must See Racing Xtreme Sprint Cars and features for the USAC HPD Eastern Midgets, PASS Pro Late Models, and Legends.

The Pro All Stars Series is recognized as North America's premier sanctioning body for asphalt Super Late Models and boasts such marquee events as the legendary AIM Recycling Oxford 250 Presented By Kenny U-Pull at Oxford Plains Speedway and PASS South's Easter Bunny 150 at the historic Hickory Motor Speedway.

PASS Pro Late Model Racers Ready For Doubleheader Weekend At Hickory

CHARLOTTE, NC (March 26) - In just over three years, the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) Pro Late Model division has produced some of the top talent in short track. Seen as a proving ground for racers looking to eventually make the move up to the PASS Super Late Models, drivers like Tate Fogleman, Jody Measamer, Trevor Noles, and Jeff Batten credit their time in PASS Pro Late Models with helping ease their transition to the much faster Supers.

For the first time in PASS Pro Late Model history, the division will have two complete 50 lap races on the same weekend as part of the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway April 3-4. This will be a huge upside for PASS Pro Late Model racers who will get to compete for more prize money in a single weekend and get more track time as well, including being the feature division on Friday night, April 3 along with Legend car racing and heat races for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars. Kodie Conner, a 6-time PASS Pro Late Model winner, is looking forward to returning to his roots with the Easter Bunny doubleheader.

"It's very exciting, I haven't raced a doubleheader like that since the Bandolero days," said Conner, driver of the Jerry Conner Insurance/Wheel Chill Toyota #45. "We're very excited. We've got both cars ready to run just in case something does happen Friday night, but I'm pumped up...I can't wait."

Third year PASS Pro Late Model racer Matt Murphy is also excited about the opportunity the Easter Bunny doubleheader provides. Murphy's Matt Murphy Motorsports/Cool Shirt Systems Ford started the season off with a strong run at Dillon and followed that up with the best outing of his career at Anderson Motor Speedway. Murphy led until a problem on a late race restart sent him for a spin. Even with the problem Murphy still charged back to record a career best second place finish.

"Our luck at Hickory hasn't been that good, but we look to change that around because we've got a new car that's really made a big difference this year," says Murphy. "We've had a good car this year and probably could have won a race, but we've got a new look at Hickory and hopefully can come out with a victory."
Like Conner and Murphy, Matthews, NC's Zachary Dabbs is a graduate of Bandolero racing. And, like Conner, Dabbs has already gone to victory lane, scoring his only PASS Pro Late Model win at Dillon in his series debut last year. Dabbs has been in contention in both races so far this year and is excited to have two opportunities to race close to home in front of family and friends.

"Yeah, it's going to be fun, so far this year we've been used to racing every 2-3 weeks," said Dabbs, driver of the Truck Service of Charlotte #23. "It'll be good to get in the car and get some more seat time and it should be fun for the team and everybody. Hickory is where I first started my racing career and we've got some good memories there. I think we're going to be able to drive hard and possibly get the win."

For the first time ever, the Easter Bunny 150 weekend will expand to two days, beginning on Friday afternoon, April 3 with practice for the PASS Super Late Models, Must See Racing Sprint Cars and support divisions and will be followed by twin 25 lap qualifying races for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars and features for the PASS Pro Late Models and Legends cars. Then, on Saturday, April 4, the PASS Super Late Models will compete in the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 along with the 40 lap "Southern Showdown" for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars and features for the USAC HPD Eastern Midgets, PASS Pro Late Models, and Legends.

Also, look for more details to be released in the coming days on an Easter Bunny 150 Racers Welcome Party featuring food, fun, show cars, autographs, and a live band on Thursday, April 2 at Iron Thunder Saloon and Grill in Hickory.

The Pro All Stars Series is recognized as North America's premier sanctioning body for asphalt Super Late Models and boasts such marquee events as the legendary AIM Recycling Oxford 250 Presented By Kenny U-Pull at Oxford Plains Speedway and PASS South's Easter Bunny 150 at the historic Hickory Motor Speedway.

ZANE SMITH #77 - BEN ROWE #4N

PASS South Points Leader Smith Confident Heading Into His First Easter Bunny 150

CHARLOTTE, NC (March 24) - Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South Super Late Model points leader Zane Smith is brimming with confidence as he looks forward to his first experience in the Easter Bunny 150 coming up on Saturday, April 4th at Hickory Motor Speedway. With only seven starts under his belt dating back to last season, Smith has had a superb beginning to the 2015 season. The Huntington Beach, CA native finished third in his first ever trip to Dillon Motor Speedway and was runner-up to 3-time PASS National Champion, Ben Rowe, in a photo finish last weekend in the Peach Blossom Special at Anderson Motor Speedway. Based on his early season success, Smith believes he has a legitimate shot at capturing his first career PASS South win on one of the biggest stages of them all, the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150.

"I think we'll be good, basically every race we go to with Gary Crooks we have a great car and I'm not worried about it all," said Smith, driver of the Pro-Am Racing Products #77 Chevrolet. "I think we'll run up front, the car handles great every single weekend and I don't think it will be any different at Hickory. I'm definitely looking forward to it."

The Easter Bunny 150 has become one of the premier events in short track racing and has a prestigious lineage of former winners that includes Mike and Ben Rowe, Preston Peltier, and DJ Shaw. Smith has already proven that he can go toe-to-toe with the best the sport has to offer after his side-by-side duel over the last few laps with Ben Rowe at Anderson. Although he only finished 19th in his single start at Hickory in last year's Over The Mountain 150, Smith believes the time is right for a rookie to go to victory lane in the Easter Bunny.

"It would be pretty huge for me and I have a feeling that we honestly can win it," says Smith. "There's going to be a good field of cars there so it's important for us to get a good starting spot. Then, it's just going to be who can save the most and have the most car left at the end."

Early entries continue to come in for the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150. Joining Smith, will be fellow PASS South championship hopefuls Jody Measamer, Tate Fogleman, and Jimmy Doyle. A strong Northern flavor will be present as always led by former Easter Bunny 150 winners Mike and Ben Rowe, along with Joey Doiron and Quebec's Eric St. Gelais. Trevor Noles returns and will be seeking his first Easter Bunny 150 win as well as Texas newcomer Derek Scott, Jr.

For the first time ever, the Easter Bunny 150 weekend will expand to two days, beginning on Friday afternoon, April 3 with practice for the PASS Super Late Models, Must See Racing Sprint Cars and support divisions and will be followed by twin 25 lap qualifying races for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars and features for the PASS Pro Late Models and Legends cars.

Spillers To Compete in PASS Pro Tour
with MyComputerCareer

Charlotte, N.C. (March 31, 2015) This morning in uptown Charlotte, WGP announced their two newest clients Jake Spillers, an eighteen year old from
Holly Springs, North Carolina and MyComputerCareer an accredited IT training program with campuses in five major US cities and another opening soon in Charlotte, NC.

"It's always exciting when you get to work with someone new," said Dwayne Gaulding, vice president of WGP. "Jake will bring a lot of excitement to WGP and his work ethic is second to none. When not balancing school at UNCC he is studying the sport of racing and focused on improving his health, strength, and endurance."
Jake, a mechanical engineering major at University of North Carolina Charlotte, will compete full time in the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) Pro Late Model Tour driving the No.55 MyComputerCarrer.edu Toyota for Team Johnson Motorsports. Jake has spent the last several year in the INEX Legends Cars competing at Charlotte Motor Speedway and local short tracks across North Carolina.

"I'm looking forward to a great season with WGP and MyComputerCareer" said Spillers. "This year will be a learning curve but I have confidence in Jerick and everyone at Team Johnson Motorsports and I know we'll be competing for wins."

Spillers will kick off the season in the No. 55 MyComputerCarrer.edu Toyota at Hickory Motor Speedway in The Easter Bunny 150 and compete in the remaining PASS Pro Late Model tour races along with additional NASCAR Whelen Late Model series events.

MyComputerCareer is breaking new ground with the racing sponsorship. But that's not new to the career college that started with their first campus in Raleigh in 2008 and will soon add their 6th in Charlotte later this year. "We love Jake because he exemplifies all the qualities it takes to be successful in our program and in life; vision, desire, character, persistence, and hard work. He's a great example for our students and anyone who seeks to accomplish great things. That's why we're backing him," said Tony Galati, President and Founder of the school.


TWO-TIME HEADED TO THE “SOUTHERN SHOWDOWN”
Holly, MI - "Two-Time" is a nickname that Crawfordsville, IN driver Jacob Wilson has respectively earned by virtue of his back-to-back Must See Racing sanctioned Pay Less Little 500 victories. But if you ask Wilson, he hopes he gets a new nickname if he can claim a third Little 500 victory this coming May 23. Wilson is one of the first of a handful of early drivers that have committed to run the Must See Racing season opener April 3-4 at Hickory Motor Speedway in Newton, North Carolina. The event is part of the PASS South Super Late Model "10th annual Easter Bunny 150". The twenty-four-year-old had a remarkable season in 2014. He claimed his second consecutive Little 500 victory and capped off his season with a winged sprint car win at Madera, CA on November 21. The event was televised by Must See Racing television on MAVTV. After his Little 500 win in May, the new nickname "Two-Time" began to be a commonplace. "I've never had a nickname that stuck before" explains Wilson. "It's been kinda fun, but I'd definitely like to change it come May 23". The "Southern Showdown" is a race Wilson is eagerly looking forward to. It is an area of the country Wilson enjoys and it will officially start the 2015 racing season for his Wilson Bros. Racing Team. "I like going down there. I ran a Kart there when I was twelve. Going to stock car country is definitely fun because we expose ourselves to a new fan base". Wilson has a lot of different options in 2015. He will be running Must See Racing events in addition to a USAC Silver Crown car and a winged dirt sprint car. But, his primary focus will be winning a third consecutive Little 500 victory. "My main focus is the Little 500. I plan on running the first four Must See Racing events. We'll see where we are at after the Little 500 and decide what we'll do the rest of the season. I've got so many different options this year. I need to see what I can do with the sponsors I have. Maybe I just go where the money is and do a few dirt shows? If I'm leading the points, who knows. I want to focus on wins". Wilson is definitely a favorite entering the inaugural "Southern Showdown" April 4. The young driver may be arguably the hottest pavement sprint car driver entering the 2015 racing season. At only twenty-four years of age, he has won the two biggest pavement sprint car races in the country already in his young career. In addition to his Little 500 victories, he won the 2008 Joe James/Pat O'Connor Memorial at Salem (IN) Speedway. He also competed in the Indy Lights Series in 2011. Don't be surprised if Wilson emerges victorious in the inaugural "Southern Showdown". Luck seems to be riding on his side in recent seasons. Maybe that has something to do with the March 17 birthday he celebrates. Log onto www.mustseeracing.com for more info on the "Southern Showdown".

Easter Bunny Weekend Expands to Two Days; Sprints Ready for “Southern Showdown”
CHARLOTTE, NC (January 29) - Pro All Stars Series (PASS) President Tom Mayberry is pleased to announce that a deal has been finalized to include the Must See Racing Sprint Cars at this year's Easter Bunny 150 weekend at Hickory Motor Speedway. Additionally, the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 weekend will expand to a two day show for the first time in the prestigious event's history. The Easter Bunny 150 will be the second PASS National Championship Series race of 2015 and will feature the best Super Late Model racers from the North and South. For the Must See Racing Sprints, the event is shaping up to be a 'Southern Showdown' as the Tampa Bay Area Racing Association (TBARA) teams are invited to participate. The TBARA has been in a dormant state since club members decided to temporarily put the series in hiatus several weeks ago. A vote by the club in the coming weeks will determine if the TBARA will accept the invitation. "The Easter Bunny 150 has always been exciting because it brings the best Super Late Model racers from the North and South together in one of the biggest short track races of the Spring," said PASS President Tom Mayberry. "The addition of the Must See Racing Sprint Cars only adds to this great event. It will give our fans the chance to not only see Winged Sprint Cars race on asphalt, but it will also give them a glimpse of some of the fastest cars to race on short tracks period. These guys have been setting track records everywhere they go and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them do the same at Hickory." This will mark the first ever visit to Hickory Motor Speedway for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars. Hickory and the Easter Bunny 150 weekend will open the 2015 campaign for the Midwest's best asphalt Winged Sprint Car drivers as they get set to compete against some of the South's best "Winged Warriors." The 'Southern Showdown' will pit the top Southern and Northern winged pavement sprint cars head-to-head. This event could prove to be one of the biggest pavement sprint cars events ever held in the South in recent seasons. In addition, the event is expected to draw the top pavement sprint cars drivers from across the nation. "We have been very fortunate to open the season in the Deep South over the last several years, however, because of the current state of pavement sprint car racing in Florida and the opportunity to race in a different part of the country, we decided to take advantage of the offer to compete at the first class Hickory Motor Speedway in a great event with PASS," said Must See Racing's Jim Hanks. "A two night event will attract race teams and give the fans plenty of wheel to wheel racing action. The event is closer to our home base, introduces the unparalleled speed of winged pavement sprint cars to new fans, plus, the track length and configuration at Hickory is perfect to have the Northern MSR 410's and the Southern 360's compete evenly and fairly without compromising the rule books or very importantly, the engines. We are really looking forward to starting the season at this new and exciting area, track and event." For the first time ever, the Easter Bunny 150 weekend will expand to two days, beginning on Friday afternoon, April 3 with practice for the PASS Super Late Models, Must See Sprint Cars and support divisions and will be followed by twin 25 lap qualifying races for the Must See Sprint Cars and features for the PASS Pro Late Models and Legends cars. Then, on Saturday, April 4, the PASS Super Late Models will compete in the 10th Annual Easter Bunny 150 along with the 40 lap "Southern Showdown" for the Must See Racing Sprint Cars and features for the USAC HPD Eastern Midgets and Legends. The Pro All Stars Series is recognized as North America's premier sanctioning body for asphalt Super Late Models and boasts such marquee events as PASS South's Easter Bunny 150 at the historic Hickory Motor Speedway and the legendary Oxford 250 at Oxford Plains Speedway.
