Houston Next Stop For Stars of The Texas Super Racing Series

 

The stars of the Texas Super Racing Series are making final adjustments to

their sleek late model machines for this Friday, May 7th, as the second year

series prepares for its' participation in NASCAR Weekend at Houston

Motorsports Park. It has been 35 years since NASCAR has visited Houston.

"This is such a prestigious event," said series founder, Mary Ann Naumann.

"Everyone with the Texas Super Racing Series is very proud for Graham, David

Baker, Steve Turner & their families to have accomplished the signing of

this agreement with NASCAR."

 

If the season opener is an indicator for what race fans will see this year,

the race for the championship will be a hotly contested battle every week.

Houstonian, Mike Yale, currently stands on the top step of the point's race

after winning the season opening race at Corpus Christi Speedway. "We still

need to change the gears and a couple of springs," said Yale about what he

still needs to do in preparation for the Houston race. "We don't have much

left to do to be ready for Houston."

 

Several teams tested at Houston Motorsports Park in April lead by series

regular Jamie Fuller, who finished second in the season opener. Houston

Motorsports Park has become a very fast and competitive track because of the

new racing surface installed last year. At last September's Space City 125,

Texas Super Racing Series drivers found passing easier than before and gave

fans the most exciting finish in series history with a spectacular photo

finish. "I can't say enough about the Houston track. The Baker family is

outstanding to work with," added Naumann, "Each of our incredible

Drivers/Car Owners & Crews has the desire to be apart of this exciting

weekend of racing!"

 

Houston Motorsports Park has put together a great weekend of racing for

fans. Gates open Friday at 5:00PM. For ticket information please call

(281) 458-1972 or visit their web site at www.houstonmotorsportspark.com.

The track is located at 11620 N. Lake Houston Parkway in Houston.
