With their driver Wyatt Alexander in North Carolina going to school, the principles at Wyatt Alexander Racing (WAR) normally based out of their shop in Ellsworth, Maine have decided to compete in several Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South races.
The team’s first race will be this Saturday, March 31, the 13th Annual Easter Bunny 150 from Hickory Speedway, Hickory, North Carolina. The race will pit the North vs South. As of publication time there are 27 entries for the 150 lapper.
The South team is led by Matt Craig, the winner of the PASS opener March 18 at Caraway Speedway. Joining Craig will be Tate Fogelman, Brandon Setzer, Kodie Conner, Tyler Church and several more.
The North team will be led by Ben Rowe, Derek Griffith, DJ Shaw, Garrett Hall, Wyatt Alexander, New Brunswick’s Lonnie Sommerville, and others.
WAR hope to finish their racer tonight and head south Monday. They have a session planned at Caraway Speedway, in Sophia, North Carolina on Wednesday to shake out some cobwebs and bugs before heading over to Hickory for practice Friday at that track.
Crew chief, Bob Alexander said, “Top three goals for me are:
1. Show up with a competitive car.
2. Time trial well enough to make the field.
3. A top ten finish would be awesome.”
