FANS FUND DRIVERS CONFIRMED AND “ALL IN”

Top Ten & All-Stars “All In” And Excited For USA Nationals

FARMINGTON, Minn. (July 1, 2011) Following the completion of last weekend’s FANS Fund voting, the top ten FANS Fund drivers as well as the two All-Star drivers were called this week to verify their attendance at the USA Nationals presented by U. S. Steel. In years past, this process typically took several weeks to finalize the driver line up but this year it took one phone call to each of the twelve drivers. The overwhelming response from every driver and team… “we are all in and look forward to coming up to Cedar Lake Speedway.”

One of the more interesting conversations of the week was with the FANS Fund leading vote recipient Brandon Sheppard. Brandon is the current points leader of the Northern All-Stars Late Model Series and the sanctioning body has a series race scheduled August 6th at Farmer City and then at his father’s racetrack, Shepps Speedways on August 7th. The point fund for winning the NALMS is significant and Sheppard knows that by missing the race at Farmer City could cause him the championship. Sheppard’s reply, “This FANS Fund is a great deal and the opportunity to race for $50,000 is to hard to pass up… our team will be there.”
