(CONCORD, NC) The ASRS Short Track All Star Tour brought ASRS action back to Concord Motorsports Park for the first time since 2008, and while tire management was the big story of the night, the race went caution free.
Landon Sciacca and Jim Foose started on the front row for the 100 laps, while Greg Evans started sixth, but quickly went to work picking up spots. Sciacca led the first 15 laps but was merely along for the ride when Evans blasted by and took the lead, for what would be the race’s lone lead change.
Evans then opened up a lead that at the time of the checkered flag was just under nine seconds. It was a championship showing for Evans, who merely has to start the season’s final race at South Boston to win the championship.
Evans coasted to his seventh win in 11 races over Sciacca. Foose ran third followed by Alan Elwood in fourth and Steve Buhala in fifth.
Evans holds a 95 point lead over Foose heading to South Boston Speedway on May 17th.

(CLEVELAND, OH) The ASRS Street Stock Challenge Series is returning to action May 22nd as part of the “Back to Basics” plan by ASRS Officials. The Street Stock Series last ran in the late summer and fall months of 2011 and is set for a triumphant return, featuring a schedule that will allow many drivers to join in the fun, with no added cost for tracks to anyone who is an iRacing member.
The ASRS Street Stock Challenge Series will replace the ASRS Open Wheel Series on Tuesday nights, when the Camping World Truck Series is not in action. The schedule will feature stops at Thompson International Speedway, USA International Speedway, South Boston Speedway, Oxford Plains Speedway, Lanier National Speedway and the famed Charlotte Motor Speedway Legends Course. “All of the tracks and the car itself are included in the base content when a driver joins iRacing” said ASRS President Jim Foose. “We chose the tracks for the schedule because we want to provide an entry level series for drivers who are new to the iRacing service or drivers who simply do not have the financial means to run a series that runs mostly premium tracks and content” Foose continued.
The “Back to Basics” plan came to light when the six race Sports Car Series was dropped in favor the mostly short track, stock car Pro Series, which will take to the track for the first time on Thursday, May 24th at Iowa Speedway. On May 1st, it was announced ASRS was dropping its effort at an open wheel series, based on the IZOD IndyCar Series after lackluster results for many of the series events.
“We have experience with the Street Stock cars from 2011 and really have had several requests to bring them back into our program” Foose said. “Sometimes a change is a good thing and sometimes you get away from something you had that you felt you could do better, but the result is not as good as you hoped, that’s what happened with our road racing endeavors. It just didn’t work out as well as we had hoped.”
The Street Stock Challenge Series will feature fixed setups, races ranging from 50-100 laps and will feature caution flags and the lucky dog.
