The entries continue to pour in for SpeedFest 2013, to be held later this month at Watermelon Capital Speedway in Cordele, GA.
Among those set to compete for top honors at “The Melon” Jan. 26-27 are a trio of second generation racers, led by 2011 SpeedFest winner Chase Elliott. Elliott scored the win last year in the 100 lap Pro Late Model preliminary event, a race he has won two years running. 2012 was a banner year in Late Models for the Dawsonville, GA driver.
Elliott, the son of NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Bill Elliott, won the World Crown 300 at Gresham Motorsports Park, along with a brace of SLM wins at the Jefferson, GA speed plant.
John Hunter Nemechek, son of NASCAR Sprint Cup driver Joe Nemechek, is also slated to compete, as is NASCAR Sprint Cup driver David Ragan, himself the son of Georgia Racing Hall of Fame member Ken Ragan.
Senoia, Georgia’s Bubba Pollard, who finished second in the 2012 SpeedFest main event to Kyle Busch, is set to try to better his position by one this year. The 2012 Rattler 250 victor will be joined by 2012 Snowball Derby champion Erik Jones, Red Eye 100 winner Stephen Nasse, as well Anderson Bowen, Kyle Benjamin, Mike Garvey and Hunter Robbins.
Other drivers set to take part include Spencer Davis, Allen Karnes, Rand Gentry, Brandon Oakley, David Odell, Donnie Wilson and Travis Sauter.
SpeedFest 2013 consists of a 100 lap Pro Late Model race for the JEG’s/CRA All Stars, followed by a 200 lap Super Late Model race for the CRA/ARCA Super Late Models.
Saturday’s events feature practice and qualifing for both events. Both features will be run on Sunday.
In addition, Sunday’s festivities will include an autograph session featuring several past, present and future racing heroes, including 1960 NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Rex White, 1988 NASCAR Sprint Cup champ Bill Elliott, current NASCAR drivers Joe Nemecheck, David Ragan, and Jeff Burton, along with future starts Chase Elliott, John Hunter Nemechek, and Harrison Burton.
