BOISE, Idaho -- The big question going around these past few weeks has been: What makes the “2008 Summer of Excitement Series” so exciting? Well, that’s a good question. And the best way we can answer that, is to take a look at the results from the Northwest Pro4 Alliance’s 2007 season.

The 2007 Northwest Pro4 Alliance “Tri Track Showdown” saw 49 different race teams compete from six different states, with an average of 29 cars per event. The Alliance had three different winners, and a champion that didn’t win a single race but consistently finished every event, never once placing outside the top three spots.

The Alliance raced for combined awards of over $20,000.00, including track purse, event sponsorship money, and major product sponsorship awards. The Alliance also added a website maintained by Julie Bundschuh (www.nwpro4alliance.com ) and obtained the services of Troy Blanton as Race Coordinator.

Now during the off season, the staff of the Alliance has continued to work diligently preparing for the 2008 racing season, and the positive results speak for themselves to answer the question, “What’s so exciting?”

First, shortly after the end of the 2007 season, the Northwest Pro4 Alliance announced a provisional start program and the list of eligible teams for 2008. These 14 teams will now have the chance at using a provisional start, should they encounter problems that keep them from qualifying for an event in 2008. The second announcement was the Motorsports Consulting Services Crew Chief of the Year award, which will further honor the efforts of the men and women behind the race team.

The 2008 schedule also saw the addition of the Wenatchee Valley Super Oval to the list of outstanding racetracks visited next season, bumping the schedule to four events in 2008. And we are also thrilled to announce that all of our 2007 Sponsors have returned, and we will also be welcoming several new sponsors for 2008. And the list of drivers committing to the series continues to grow, with names such as 2006 and 2007 Meridian Speedway Champ, Kale Freedman, and 2007 State Line Speedway Champ, Jeff Smyth, just to name a few of the teams who will join our Alliance Champ, Kameron McKeehan, in 2008.

We still have several goals we are working on for 2008, but you can bank on next season living up to its name, the “2008 Summer Of Excitement Series.”
