CHARLOTTE, NC (August 14) – Without a doubt, the 2008 season has to be one of the toughest yet for the teams of the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South Super Late Model division. With eight races down so far, PASS South teams have already competed in the same number of races that made up the entire 2006 and 2007 schedules. Fortunately, for the drivers and especially their crew members, they have entered the longest down time of the season. When teams head to the Caraway Speedway in Asheboro, NC for the Piedmont Pride 125 on August 30th, it will have been four weeks since the last race was held at the Dillon Motor Speedway.

Martin Lacombe defeated the odds in a big way on Saturday night to capture the Toromont CAT 100 at Capital City Speedway, the second Série ACT Castrol win of his career. Lacombe has had nothing but bad luck in 2008 – at the opening event at his home track, Autodrome St-Eustache near Montréal and his hometown of Terrebonne, QC, Lacombe blew and engine in practice. After a hasty powerplant swap, he made his way to the lead pack… then the transmission broke.
