Kelley Carlton Named Series Director for FASTRAK and Ultimate Racing Series

CARNESVILLE, Ga. -- After serving in an interim capacity as race director for the FASTRAK Racing Series in late 2011, FASTRAK Companies International, Inc. today announced that Kelley Carlton has been named series director for the FASTRAK Southeast / Mid-East Touring Series and the Ultimate Super Late Model Series for the 2012 season. Carlton previously held the same position with the Southern All Star Racing Series and also maintains a race management and consulting firm. Carlton’s immediate duties will include overseeing the operation and staffing of touring events, promotion, marketing and scheduling for both series.

“This is an exciting opportunity for me and my guys. Last year was just really not comfortable for me. I missed the whole schedule grind more than I thought I would. It was nice to have to some time off to get away but I am ready for a challenge. And it will certainly be a challenge taking on 2 complete touring series but my team and I are looking to take it head-on and put our best foot forward. I have had a tremendous amount of support from the dirt racing community. I want to thank those that have been in my corner and helped me with advice and guidance.I also want to thank Stan Lester for showing such confidence in me by entrusting me with both series. I am also happy that Tommy Tedder will be staying on board as the voice of the Ultimate Supers and we are on track and meshing with other staff to put a quality team together for the whole season. We are ready to get moving.” Carlton said.

The first order of business on Carlton’s agenda will be the Carolina Auto Racing Show (CARS) this weekend at the Hickory Convention Center in Hickory, North Carolina. “We will have a booth at the CARS show and have our FASTRAK Southeast / Mid-East Champion Brandon Umberger’s car on display. We will also be hosting a series of rules meetings and releasing our 2012 schedules for both series. We have great schedules for both series. Both are diverse and will take us to some great venues. Stan and I have worked closely together on getting the schedules completed. We are still expecting to add a few more dates to the Ultimate schedule.” Carlton added.

“Kelley has really been a very good fit for FASTRAK and we have been able to work together very well. He understands the racing business and he is well known and liked by drivers and promoters. He has earned a reputation of fairness and respect and we welcome that to our organization. That’s why I have the utmost confidence in handing over the reigns to both series to him so I can focus on our television package and growing the company. So we are happy that we will have him and all of his team as we move forward and take FASTRAK and Ultimate to all new heights.” commented FASTRAK Companies International CEO and Founder Stan Lester.
