Dale Shaw will challenge PASS Outlaws at Riverside Saturday
Naples ME — The Pro All Stars Series (PASS) North Outlaws and Mods take center stage at Groveton NH’s Riverside Speedway on Saturday May 10th and there’s several wild card entries that will spice up the Outlaw lineup at the quick quarter mile.
Dale Shaw has confirmed that he will make a rare appearance behind the wheel in the PASS Outlaw division. Shaw needs little introduction to New England race fans; he’s a NASCAR champion, a noted car builder and of late he’s best known as father of PASS super late model racer D.J. Shaw. The Center Conway NH teenager already has a championship of his own under his belt, and he’s a leading contender for PASS North super late model rookie of the year honors. Dale serves as D.J.’s crew chief on the super late model circuit, but on Saturday the roles will be reversed when his Dad gets behind the wheel.
There will be plenty of Outlaw regulars anxious to take on Shaw. Speedway 95 winner Scott Mulkern is expected to be in the field, and Jamie Swallow Jr. will have home track advantage on his side. Mike Harnish, Gunnar Josselyn and Mike Thomas will make the trip to Riverside, and both Alan Wilson and Jimmy Renfrew will be making their first PASS Outlaw starts of the season.
The PASS Mods have a local racer for Riverside fans to root for as well. Whitefield NH’s Ron Gooden Jr. has two top five finishes to his credit in his first two 2008 PASS Mod starts and could break through to victory lane at his local track. Andy Shaw and Mark Lucas have both scored wins; Gary Norris Jr. and Tom Oliver have both been impressive, too. The fast open wheelers are well suited to the Groveton oval and are guaranteed to put on a great show.
A full under card of Groveton’s weekly racing divisions will complete the show. Practice gets under way at 1:30 PM. and the racing goes green at 5:00 PM.
