ASRS Grand National Drivers Prepare to hit the Road!
(CLEVELAND, OH) The ASRS Grand National Series drivers are preparing to turn left and right for the first time ever. The series heads to the road course in Watkins Glen, New York for the first time Monday, August 31.
The trip to Watkins Glen will not be the first time an ASRS series has raced at the tricky 2.45 mile, 11 turn course. In 2008, the ASRS National Series competed at Watkins Glen with ORP Grand National Series winner Jake Morris taking that victory. The National Series had previously hosted a road race at Lime Rock Park in 2007 where Jeff Bye, Jr. picked up the win, and even further back in the history books, the ASRS Canadian Challenge Series raced at Mosport in 2005, where Eric Bannenberg was the winner.
This time around, the field is filled with top notch competition and solid road racers as well as oval track racers.
The American Sim Racing Series has seen continued growth since its birth in 2002. Since 2005, some of the biggest names in short track sim racing have raced in the American Sim Racing Series, making it America’s #1 Online Short Track League.
