ASA AERO EXHAUST NORTHWEST TOUR RETURNS TO EVERGREEN SPEEDWAY

November 28, 2007 MONROE, Washington  – Evergreen Speedway and the ASA Aero Exhaust Northwest Tour jointly announced today that a 23-year tradition returns to the Northwest's premier racing oval. Opening night on March 29, 2008 will feature the return of the ASA Northwest Tour to the Northwest's biggest oval the .646-mile (5/8's) track at Evergreen. Also on hand will be the ASA/NSRA Winged Sprint Cars for the Doug James Memorial.

Evergreen Speedway was where the Northwest Tour got its start 23-years ago. Evergreen hosted opening night for 22 straight years including the most races of the series' history. After taking a year off of hosting traveling stock car series', Evergreen Officials are excited to return to the long tradition. "The fact that our own drivers are able to compete in the ASA event was the key factor in considering this race," said Evergreen's longtime promoter Mickey Beadle.

ASANWT director Ron Bennett said, "This is a great step forward in bringing the popular stock car series back to its former prominence. We want to thank everyone at Evergreen Speedway."

The Northwest Tour has been a springboard for some of the countries best stock car aces. NASCAR champions Chad Little, Mike Bliss, Greg Biffle are graduates of the Tour. Others that moved up the ladder included: Tobey Butler, Derrick Cope, Dirk Stevens and Kevin Hamlin.

The remainder of the twelve-race ASA Northwest Tour 2008 schedule is in the process of being firmed up. The full schedule will be released the first week of December 2007. The new car construction rules were designed to allow local cars to be competitive. The local driver will have the opportunity to show their stuff against the best of the Northwest.
