The race is round two of the five race series that got  underway  in January at Florida\u2019s New Smyrna Speedway. Two New Englanders are  currently  atop the standings, with<span> <\/span>PASS  newcomer Brad Leighton in the number one spot by virtue of his PASS  Florida  Winterfest win, followed by defending and four time PASS North Champion  Johnny  Clark, Canada\u2019s Lonnie Sommerville and <span> <\/span><span> <\/span>Steven  Legendre. Preston Peltier, Jay  Fogleman, Dale Brackett, Devin Jones, Brandon Ward and Clay Jones round  out the  top ten.<span> <\/span>They\u2019re all expected  at the Easter Bunny 150, so they will all remain in contention for the  2010  crown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">The  Easter Bunny will award both PASS South and PASS National points, so  Ryan Blaney  will be looking to back up his first career PASS South win in the season  opening  South Carolina Clash with a victory at Hickory.

Blaney stands atop the South standings with Hal Goodson, Steve Legendre,  Preston  Peltier and Spencer Wauters second through fifth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">On  Friday March 2<sup>nd<\/sup> there will be practice for all competing  divisions.
