SUPER SOUTHERN SERIES

  ASA staRS National Series

www.starsnationalseries.com

The ASA STARS National Tour will debut in 2023 for Super Late Model racing in America.  Announced in October, many of the best drivers in America are expected to compete in the 10-race national tour with a minimum $100,000 point fund. The championship team will be guaranteed $25,000. 

The national series is made up of three races from each of the regional pavement Super Late Model Series under the Track Enterprises banner; the ASA CRA Super Series, the ASA Midwest Tour and the ASA Southern Super Series.  

A Winner’s Circle program will also be part of the ASA National Tour for licensed drivers/teams with perfect attendance.  The program details will be announced at a later date, but it will be in the same vein as ASA utilized in its heyday.

Track Enterprises, a Racing Promotions Company based in Illinois, will operate the ASA STARS National Tour.  It announced the acquisition of the CRA sanctioning body in January and followed that up with the purchase of the Midwest Tour in July. In October, Track Enterprises President, Bob Sargent announced a partnership with the Southern Super Series which set the table for the formation of the ASA STARS National Tour.

Coughlin Cruises to Anderson Win in Return to JEGS Tour


 
 

Anderson, IN - A strong field of 20 cars unloaded at Anderson Speedway on Saturday for the O'Reilly Auto Parts 100 with the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by Chevrolet Performance. The second race of the 2024 season featured a full rack of regular hopefuls for a JEGS Tour win, and a return of one of the more dominating drivers on the Tour in recent memory.


 

The night started when Delaware, Ohio driver Cody Coughlin blistered a new track record in single-car qualifying. Coughlin turned in a time of 11.992 seconds in the second half of qualifying, knocking down the mark set by Travis Braden in 2020 of 12.140. 


 

After the redraw, West Michigan 100 winner, Blake Rowe and Evan Varney led the field to the green flag. Rowe jumped out to the early lead as Varney struggled in his No.16. A stack up in turn one put drivers on their toes, however, everyone was able to continue keep[ing the track green. Things changed on lap 13 when Keegan Sabilo spun in turn four getting extensive damage bringing his night to an end. 


 

Just six laps later, Rowe’s time at the front came to an end as Coughlin completed the pass that he started before the caution flew. Coughlin’s rein at the front of the field was interrupted many times across the run of the 100 lap contest. 


 

A spin on lap 40 gave Rowe an opportunity to try and overtake Coughlin again, however, the field was quickly stopped after a crash on the front stretch during the restart. Rookie Chase Pinsonneault appeared to have an issue leaving Charlie Keeven nowhere to go. Keeven ultimately turned the No.14 into Dylan Stovall and both drivers made heavy contact with the outside wall, resulting in them going airborne into turn one. Both drivers were okay, but their races were over.


 

Two more cautions flew toward the end of the race, including a slow down with just five laps to go. A tire issue for Eddie VanMeter forced the No.23 to come to a stop and re-rack the field. Coughlin and Rowe were both trying to get the upper hand on the restart, with two warnings handed out to the front row for restart violations. In the end, the pair got it right and raced toward the checkered. Despite their best effort, no one had anything for Coughlin who led the final 80 laps en route to the win. Rowe settled for second, Brett Robinson third, Keeven fourth, and Barrett Polhemus fifth. 


 

“The car was great,” Coughlin said in victory lane. “I haven’t raced a late model in two or three years, whatever its been, but obviously a fairytale return to it. I lost a little bit of grip on the last restart and I was a little worried about it, but it worked out,” Coughlin recapped. 


 

The next event for the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by Chevrolet Performance is Saturday, May 25th at Owosso Speedway for the $10,000 to win, $1,000 to start Big O Classic 100.

JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Squares up to Anderson Speedway for O'Reilly Auto Parts 100 Saturday


 

Nashville, TN - The JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by Chevrolet Performance returns to action Saturday for the O’Reilly Auto Parts 100 at Anderson Speedway. The second race of the 2024 season features the only visit to the home of the Redbud 400 and Little 500, two of the nation’s most sought-after race wins in short track racing. The O’Reilly Auto Parts 100 will be, for some drivers, the biggest hurdle of the 2024 campaign - for others, it’s the best chance for them to go to Victory Lane.


 

Saturday will be the 11th appearance for the JEGS Tour to Anderson Speedway since the first event in July of 2011. The most recent visit for the Tour was on August 6th, 2022 when Nicholas Naugle collected his first and only JEGS Tour win. He pulled off the win over Brett Robinson and Dylan Bates. Trent Snyder is the winningest JEGS Tour driver at Anderson with three (3); however, only two drivers on the current entry list have ever won a JEGS Tour race at Anderson, and one has an opportunity to match Snyder’s mark.


 

Entry List


 

2022 ASA/CRA Super Series Powered by JEGS Champion, Eddie VanMeter won the fifth race held for the JEGS Tour at Anderson in July of 2015. The win is VanMeter’s only triumph in the Pro Late Model division, however, Anderson has been home to other accomplishments for VaMeter including his third career Super Series win in his final and Championship season.


 

A former dominating figure on the JEGS Tour makes his return on Saturday. Cody Coughlin, a 10-time winner on the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour and four-time champion returns to the sanction for the first time since falling off the Tour four races into the 2022 season. Coughlin returns to Anderson Speedway where he collected a pair of wins in 2016 and 2021, both seasons resulted in Championships for the Delaware, Ohio native. 


 

VanMeter and Coughlin will have to deal with a young crop of talent looking to crack into JEGS Tour Victory Lane. Full-time driver, Charlie Keeven has the O’Reilly Auto Parts 100 circled on his calendar as an opportunity for his team to show their strength. A former track record holder, Keeven has finished in the top five in nearly every race he’s competed in at Anderson from Jr Late Models, Vore’s Welding CRA Late Model Sportsman, to the JEGS Tour. 


 

Chase Pinsonneault, current Rookie of the Year Championship leader, looks to build on his early success. Fast Qualifier last week at Berlin and an eighth-place finish doesn’t serve as a good indicator of how fast the Carson Hocevar Racing team was. A missed shift on the final restart took the No.14 out of contention for a podium finish. Pinsonneault will have a lot to learn, though, as he visits Anderson Speedway for the first time.


 

JEGS Tour invaders will also look to capture glory on Saturday including Brett Robinson. The New Albany, Indiana driver is a two-time runner-up on the JEGS Tour, including in the 2022 contest at Anderson Speedway. Robinson says he feels he should have won both races where he was the bride’s maid. Ethan Stadniczuk trades in the headset and wrenches for a steering wheel in week two. Serving as crew chief at Berlin Raceway for Dylan Stovall, the VanDoorn Racing Development drivers will battle head-to-head at Anderson. Stadniczuk grabbed his first outright JEGS Tour win in 2023 at Birch Run Speedway. 


 

Other notable drivers on the entry list include bullring regulars Brandon and Evan Varney, who have cut their teeth on tracks known for close quarter racing and tight action on the track. JP Crabtree of Muncie, Indiana has perhaps the most amount of laps at Anderson this season in a Late Model Sportsman. A pair of second-place finishes including in last week’s Vore’s Welding CRA Late Model Sportsman race set Crabtree up as one to watch.


 

The O’Reilly Auto Parts 100 on Saturday, May 4th at Anderson Speedway is the only trip to central Indiana for the JEGS Tour in 2024. General Admission gates and the CRA FanZone opens at 3:00 PM. JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by Chevrolet Performance Qualifying begins at 6:30 PM and racing is set to begin at 7:30 PM. Fans who can’t make the trip can catch the action LIVE on TrackTv.com and RacingAmerica.Tv.

super cup stock car series

www.superstockcarseries.com

About Super Cup Stock Car Series It is with great excitement that we announce the formation of the highly anticipated SuperCup Stock Car Series (SCSCS).  This series will feature former Hooter's ProCup Steel bodied stock cars that competed from 2001-2006.  The new series recently competed in two exhibition races in 2007 at both Hickory Motor Speedway and Tri-County Motor Speedway in NC.  Both races were very competitive and featured a glimpse of the anticipated competition in 2008.
 

 

Season Opening SCSCS Event at Lonesome Pine Postponed

 

Statesville, North Carolina (May 2, 2024) – The commencement of the 2024 Super Cup Stock Car Series season will have to wait a little bit longer.  Due to the uncertainty of inclement weather expected for this Saturday, Lonesome Pine Motorsports Park made the early decision to postpone racing activity for the weekend.  Series officials will be working with track staff on a possible reschedule date for the Coalminers Classic twin SCSCS races.

 

In the meantime, sights are set on the next, and now first, scheduled event of the season.  The annual Veterans Classic takes place at Shenandoah Speedway on Saturday, June 1st.  The progressively banked 3/8-mile oval returns to its traditional weekend after closing out 2023 with some exciting action that featured three different race leaders and Petersburg, West Virginia’s Brent Nelson earning the checkered flag in both main events.

 

More details will be available at the Super Cup Stock Car Series official website supercupstockcarseries.com, on Facebook (search Super Cup Stock Car Series), Twitter (@SCSCSRacing), and Instagram (SCSCS_Racing) over the coming weeks.

 

 

Coalminers Classic Kicks Off 2024 SCSCS Season Saturday at Lonesome Pine

 

Statesville, North Carolina (May 1, 2024) – Months of preparation in shops across multiple states will be brought to light when the opening event for 2024 is scheduled to take place this Saturday in Wise County, the Southwestern most section of Virginia known for its coalmining industry.  The Super Cup Stock Car Series returned to Lonesome Pine Motorsports Park in August of last year, the first time visiting the 3/8-mile banked facility since 2017, resuming a tradition that enters this year with the Coalminers Classic.

 

Some drivers expected for the season kickoff, such as West Virginia’s Larry Berg, will be taking to this particular track for the first time.  Others to watch who have previously competed at the facility have a range of past results.  Hickory, North Carolina’s Ben Ebeling was unable to attend 2023’s event, but has won twice at Lonesome Pine, including his series debut in 2016.

 

Track president Jeff Roark will look to get behind the wheel once again after showing speed in his select starts last year while team owner Bill Ashton is one of at least a couple drivers venturing from Pennsylvania to compete following a pair of third place finishes in 2023’s event, his best finishes so far in the town of Coeburn.

 

Not only could performance set the stage for ensuing weekends, but the twin races will also serve as a tune up for quite a few competitors.  The final event of 2024 takes place at Lonesome Pine as well with the Champions Classic in late September.

 

This Saturday evening’s festivities begin at 5:00 p.m. with general admission for the feature races, including four local divisions, available at the low price of $15.  In addition, the Rusty Wallace Racing Experience is on hand during the day, go-kart track on the facility grounds will be open, and “Juice Box” races for the kids are part of the program as entertainment for all ages.

 

More information can be found on the Super Cup Stock Car Series official web site supercupstockcarseries.com with interactive updates throughout race day available on Facebook (search Super Cup Stock Car Series), Twitter (@SCSCSRacing), and Instagram (SCSCS_Racing).
