"As much fun as road courses have been, I’m looking forward to getting back to racing on a short track."— Paulie Harraka
“As much fun as road courses have been, I’m looking forward to getting back to racing on a short track,” said Harraka. “Toyota Speedway is really a beast unto itself, so we haven’t been on a true short track in about two months. We’ve got a great NAPA AutoCare Toyota Camry to take to Colorado National Speedway and I know we can contend for the win. It will be great to race in front of all of the NAPA people there as well.”
Harraka is currently fifth in the chase for the series championship with a podium finish at Miller Motorsports Park.
Harraka will be making a driver appearance on Friday August 14th at Stapp Interstate Toyota from 2 until 4 pm. Please come by at 8019 Raspberry Way in Frederick, Colorado. The No. 16 Hasa team car hauler and driver Moses Smith will be there as well.
