Ross Chastain To Compete In Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series At Georgetown
NASCAR Cup Series star Ross Chastain will compete in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series event at Georgetown Speedway on April 28.
MOORESVILLE, N.C. – Ross Chastain will pilot the No. Forty-1 Precision Vehicle Logistics/AutoVentive dirt late model for Niece Motorsports at Georgetown Speedway on Friday, April 28.
“I am looking forward to piloting the Niece Motorsports dirt late model at Georgetown Speedway,” said Chastain. “Al [Niece] and Cody [Efaw] are passionate about dirt racing, and the opportunity to drive for them at Ken Adams’ facility is a great addition to my Dover race weekend.”
Chastain has three dirt starts in the NASCAR Cup Series, all coming at Bristol Motor Speedway. In addition, the Alva, Florida-native has one start in the Truck Series at Eldora Speedway, where he started and finished 12th.
“Dirt racing is something that is near and dear to our hearts at Niece Motorsports,” said General Manager Cody Efaw. “A lot of us got our start in racing at a local dirt track, so anytime we can go dirt racing, we jump at the opportunity. It’s a discipline of racing that Ross is looking to improve, and the only way you can do that is by getting more laps. We’re excited to go racing with him at Georgetown Speedway.”
Georgetown Speedway is located at the intersection of Route 113 and Speedway Road in Georgetown, Delaware. The half-mile clay oval was constructed in 1949 by Melvin L. Joseph.
