DTRA & Fastrak Form Partnership In The Midwest
November 13, 2006.
The Dirt Track Racing Association (DTRA) and the Fastrak Racing Series are
proud to announce a partnership between the two organizations whereby the DTRA
and the Fastrak series will offer a crate late model racing series in the
upper Midwest. “I couldn’t be more excited about this”, stated Steve
Kaufman of the DTRA. “The DTRA’s main focus is to reduce the costs of
racing for competitors while providing driver input into decisions, huge
opportunities for sponsors, and superior racing to its fans. This partnership
with the Fastrak series fits perfectly in that mission”.
The Fastrak Racing Series was started in 2004 and has already grown to 26 race
tracks with a point fund of $250,000! The DTRA was started in 2006 and
achieved huge success in its inaugural year. The combination of these two
entities is a huge asset to racing in the upper Midwest and is sure to create
awesome racing. DTRA will be working closely with Jeff Curtin of Shawano,
Wisconsin who runs the Great Lakes Region of the Fastrak series to expand what
he has already started in Eastern Wisconsin and surrounding areas.
“My first race had just 5 cars”, stated Stan Lester, owner of the Fastrak
series. “Just 2 years later, we had over 150 cars compete in 2006! I am
confident that the upper Midwest can produce similar results under the
leadership of the DTRA. Further, I am excited to help DTRA grow as we will be
partnering with them to add DTRA tracks in other parts of the country where
Fastrak is currently very strong”.
Detailed rules and procedures for the tracks interested in running the new
series will be forthcoming. For more info on the DTRA, visit www.dtraracing.com.
