The ASA Late Model Series is a premier and distinctive late model touring series. A series that was born into its rich grassroots history through the racers for the racers.
The series has always been a topic of interest to the fans, racers, media and other series across the country. What makes this series so intriguing to so many?
It all started back in 2002 when an idea was born on (believe it or not) a message board. (The Michigan Short Track Racing Club). The idea was to start a late model crate engine series that was cost effective with a rules package created by racers to keep the cost of racing down.
Talk is one thing especially on a message board, but to take the next step and host a meeting about a new series created by racers is another thing. That is just what happened.
In February of 2002 in Lansing, Michigan; Select drivers were invited to discuss the rules that had been formulated to date and to design a USPRO Cup race car. Tim Felver, Mark Kortz and Phil Massuch, all super late model champions, as well as drivers from factory stock to limited late model to modified drivers attended the “invitation only ” meeting.
