16 year-old Harli White has already been through more than some racers will experience in a lifetime of racing, including being pulled from the burning wreckage of a vicious accident, living to tell about it, and then stepping back into the cockpit. Read her story here.

PRI 2011: 1973 Herb Vail North East Modified Time Capsule Car
by Bobby Kimbrough
on December 5, 2011
At this year’s PRI trade show, we found a North East Modified racecar that was built for the 1973 Syracuse 100, but due to a series of odd circumstances, it never raced and was garaged for the next 33 years, leaving us with a mint condition version of a vintage North East Modified car from the early seventies.
The late country singer Marty Robbins, one of the most popular country artists of his era, had two great loves in his life, singing and racing. Many people don’t know that the singer who belted out hits like “A white sport coat and a pink carnation” and “El Paso”, was also a very avid race car driver in NASCAR.
Walking the tradeshow floor at the PRI show in Orlando, we happened to run across Bobby Lake Motorsports’ FASTrak crate late model in the Ikotec booth. Check out his awesome ride here.
