PROMOTIONS ANNOUNCES
CHANGE TO NSS LINE-UP |
On Monday, September 14, 2009 , C&C Racing Promotions announced plans to
change the line-up of the 7th Annual John Blewett III Memorial North-South
Shootout scheduled for November 6&7, 2009 at Concord Speedway in Concord,
NC. The ASA Southeast Asphalt Tour originally scheduled to be part of the
festivities will no longer be part of the two-day event.
“It was only after long and careful consideration that we came to
this very difficult decision,” said Promoter, Charles Kepley. “With the
uncertainty that currently surrounds the ASA Southeast Asphalt Tour we felt
that it would be in the best interest of the race and the competitors to
terminate the relationship at this time. Anyone can fall on hard times and
we will not stand in judgment, we will just move forward.”
The Tour-Type Modifieds of the North and the South will continue to
be the crown jewel of the annual event. Support divisions will include the
popular SK-Type Modifieds, TBARA Sprint cars, and the Vintage Modifieds.
The format for the seventh annual event will boast time trials,
heat races, and consolation event(s) for the Tour-Type Modifieds and SK-Type
Modifieds. A full schedule can be found on the events official website
www.northsouthshootout.com.
An announcement is expected in the coming days as C&C Racing
Promotions explores four different opportunities to include Late Models into
the schedule. Kepley and company will make a decision after determining
which of the options on the table is the best fit for the North South
Shootout.
“All of us at C&C Racing Promotions admire the efforts that John
Keyes has made and continues to make in support of his Series,” concluded
Kepley. “We wish him the very best of luck and hope to keep the door open
for opportunities in years to come.”
The North-South Shootout promises to provide the fastest most
exciting short track race of the season with a host of open wheel and full-fendered
racing action. For complete details visit
