AIM Recycling PASS North Super Late Models To Make Their Debut This Weekend At New Hampshire Motor Speedway
The AIM Recycling Pro All Star Series North Super Late Models will make their inaugural debut this upcoming weekend (July 4th-5th) at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The series raced this past Friday night at the Lee USA Speedway in Lee, NH. D.J. Shaw would take down the win. Shaw tested his Super Late Model back in May at the Magic Mile. For Shaw, the test session was about what he expected on the track. He felt that the car didn’t feel overly fast like he thought it would. The lap times to him were still there. ” The corner speeds are more up like a late model than I thought. It’s going to be interesting. It’s going to be hard to pass as usual at Loudon. Shaw Said
Shaw believes it hard to pass in anything at Loudon with the gearing the way it is. ” The cars don’t really spin like they do at a short track. If you get a run on the bottom. It’s hard to keep it on exit.”
Shaw believes you will also see double file racing with plenty of room to race side by side just be hard to pass. Shaw has raced at the Magic Mile in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East.
Cassius Clark was another driver that went and tested was Cassius Clark. Clark learned some things about the Magic Mile and felt he had a decent car during the test. The team is planning to bring a different engine package for this weekend.
Johnny Clark feels to be good at Loudon. You will have to put a lot of concentration on this race. ” To make yourself really good at Loudon. I think your going to have to concentrate on that race so much. We’re going to do everything we can aero wise and everything. We’ve got what we got for an engine package. We’re not going to spend $30,000 on a motor. I still think will be highly competitive there. There’s going to be guys there that are so fast because they know the track.” Johnny Clark Said
Mike and Ben Rowe are also entered for this weekend’s race. Mike was unsure of what engine package he was going to go with. For Ben, he thinks Loudon will be an incredible race. He went with his team and tested in May. ” The speeds we see with these race cars is just phenomenal. To me it was fun. It was great. That’s going to be one of the best races of the year I think.” Ben Rowe Said
