Short Track Super Series
Terry Fasnacht Fields Two-Car Team for Gular & Strunk in Louisiana
VIVIAN, LA - Last year, Terry Fasnacht was surprised at the Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco Awards Banquet with the Car Owner of the Year Award.
As the series
heads to Louisiana to meet the Southern Super Modified group for a series of exhibition
events, Fasnacht continues to show his dedication to the STSS. Not only will
Fasnacht™s Conestoga Valley Custom Kitchens team field one car for its regular
driver Mike Gular on the Bayou; they™ll bring a second for Pennsylvania star
Jeff Strunk, who served as a mentor for Gular through the early stages of his
career.
Both Gular and Strunk will be aboard the familiar No. 2A Bicknell cars as the STSS breaks new ground on Louisiana soil competing at Ark-La-Tex Speedway in Vivian Wednesday, November 11 (40 laps, $4,000 to win) and Thursday, November 12 (50 laps, $5,000 to win) before venturing two hours east to Chatham Speedway in Chatham for Friday night Qualifying and Saturday™s 75-lap, $20,000-to-win Mods in the Marsh™ special.
All events
will be broadcast live on Dirt Track Digest TV (www.dirttrackdigest.tv) for those
unable to attend in-person.
Gular enters
the Louisiana Cajun Swing™ after a wildly successful 2020 campaign that has included
a track championship at Big Diamond Speedway in Minersville, Pa., two top-five
finishes in the STSS Modified Halmar International North (second) and Velocita-USA
South Region (fifth) standings and a Diamond Nationals triumph among other
highlights.
Strunk is riding
the momentum from a convincing $35,000-plus victory in the Freedom 76 at Pa.™s
Grandview Speedway driving for Glenn Hyneman. With Hyneman vacationing in November,
Strunk jumped at the opportunity to compete in Fasnacht™s equipment when the
series ventures south to Louisiana next week.
Wednesday night (Nov. 11) gets it all started at Gene Boyter™s
Ark-La-Tex Speedway with a 40-lap, $4,000-to-win STSS Modified feature
