The following press release is from PASS Racing, Inc.
 

PASS Super Late Models To Nova Scotia


 


(Naples, ME – June 22, 2006) A dozen or more of the PASS North Super Late Models will be arriving at Scotia Speedworld in Halifax Nova Scotia over the next several days for the Forbes Chev-Olds 200 on Saturday night June 24th.


 


Cassius Clark has been the man to beat over the first three races of 2006 with wins in all three. However, Johnny  Clark was the leader for over 125 laps in the May 27th race at Canaan Fair Motorsports Complex, but a broken brake rotor put him and second-place runner Patrick Laperle out of contention. Whether the combination of car, team, talent and Lady Luck continues to shine on Cassius as the tour moves to Scotia Speedworld will be determined Saturday night after 200 laps of action.  Or will she turn back to Johnny Clark to make up for the Canaan finish? Or will Mike Rowe shake off the little things that have kept him off the podium so far in 2006? Or will Shawn Turple, Scott Alexander, Mike MacKenzie, Wayne Smith, or John Flemming thrill the hometown crowd with the victory?


 


Last year’s Forbes Chev-Olds 200 was a great battle between Mike Rowe and Cassius over the final 15 laps, with Johnny Clark, Travis Benjamin, Alexander, and Turple the last cars on the lead lap. Mike took the win with Cassius second.


 


Ben Rowe, like his dad, is looking to turn things around and get that first win for the Richard Moody team after a slow start with an eighteenth, a third, and a seventh so far in 06. That’s not the Benjie we’re used to seeing.


 


And you can’t rule out Richie Dearborn, who has been a slow starter in past years, but took second at Canaan and is third in the points, which is his best start ever in PASS competition.


 


 Travis Benjamin looks a lot better in 06 than he did in 05 when his luck was so bad it couldn’t even be called bad luck. His fourth last year in the 200 was no fluke, and he’s off to a good start in 06 and is currently sitting fifth in the points.


 


The time for prognostication and guessing is over. Whether it’s a Rowe, a Clark, Turple, Alexander, Flemming or a surprise winner, the packed house at Scotia Speedworld Saturday night will see another great race as the best Super Late Model racers from New England and the best from the Maritimes go at it.


 


Please note that in the event that Mother Nature doesn’t cooperate Saturday night the race will be run Sunday afternoon.
