"If the Series unfolds anywhere near how it did last season ... race fans are in for some exciting and unpredictable action ," reveals (Merrittville GM) Erica Bicknell-Jones, "the race to be the David Chevrolet King of the Crates saw three different drivers visit Victory Lane and the title decided by just 2 points!"
