PASS To Award 2013 National Champ With Championship Ring at Season's End

NAPLES, ME (January 23) – Pro All Stars Series (PASS) officials announced today that the 2013 PASS National Series Champion will be awarded a one-of-a-kind championship ring.  PASS, in association with series supporter Northern Race Tire, will present the newly crowned PASS National Champion with the championship ring following the final race of the season as part of the Mason-Dixon Meltdown at Southern National Raceway Park in Kenly, NC.  The PASS National Champion’s ring is currently being manufactured by Stylecraft.  From Super Bowl rings to civic awards, Stylecraft has been making finely crafted jewelry in the United States for over six decades.  The 2013 PASS National Champion’s ring will be massive in size and will be emblazoned with the PASS logo and other jewels.  This year’s championship ring is meticulously being designed now and will be unveiled on the PASS website in the coming weeks.  It joins an impressive list of awards for the PASS National Champion which includes a chassis from Bull City Race Cars and a custom helmet made by Bell Helmets.

 

 

“We are very excited to be giving this opportunity to North America’s best Super Late Model racer,” said PASS President Tom Mayberry.  “For whoever wins the 2013 PASS National title, no matter where they go, this championship ring will stand as a symbol of the hard work and dedication it took to achieve one of short track racing’s ultimate goals.”

The PASS National Series is comprised of six elite Super Late Model events throughout North America and gets underway in less than three weeks with the Inaugural Florida Winter Meltdown at Auburndale Speedway on February 8-9.  In addition to a talented group of PASS regulars, former PASS National Champions Ben Rowe and Jay Fogleman hope to contain a strong contingent of Florida Super Late Model standouts on the tricky quarter mile oval.

The PASS National Series will also be highlighted by the return of Super Late Model action to the 40th Annual TD Bank 250 at Oxford Plains Speedway in July.  The TD Bank 250 is the biggest single day short track event in the country paying $25,000 to win, with an additional $25,000 in guaranteed lap money.

In addition, a PASS National Series event will be held in Canada for the first time ever at Autodrome Chaudiere on September 7.  The 200 lap race will pay $10,000 to the winner plus an additional $20,000 in guaranteed lap leader money.  This race will also be the final event of the Autobus La Quebecoise Triple Crown, a “mini-series” of three PASS North races at Autodrome Chaudiere with a separate bonus points fund totaling $30,000 for drivers who compete in all three events there.

Traditional stops for the PASS National Series will include the Easter Bunny 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway in March and the PASS 400 Weekend at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in September.

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 PASS Northwest Triple Crown at Wenatchee Valley Super Oval, PASS South’s Easter Bunny 150 at the historic Hickory Motor Speedway, the Autobus La Qubecoise Triple Crown, and the legendary TD Bank 250 at Oxford Plains Speedway.  For technical information concerning the PASS National Championship Series please contact Scott Reed at 207-625-3230 or scottreedpass@yahoo.com.  For media or marketing questions, please contact Alan Dietz at 704-231-2039 or alandietzpass@live.com.  Please visit ProAllStarsSeries.com for more information and don’t forget to “Like” the Pro All Stars Series on Facebook to keep up with breaking news as it happens.
