Green Getting Back To The Racetrack At Mobile
MOBILE, Ala. – Clayton Green will return to the seat of his pro late model as racing resumes at Mobile Int’l Speedway this weekend.
Saturday evening’s show at the half-mile Alabama oval will mark the first race for the 27-year-old native of Marble Falls, Texas, since a May 31 event at Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola, Fla., where he earned a top-10 finish in ninth.
After a two-month break in the action, Green is eager to strap back into his No. 54 and chase a victory, something that has been missing from his resume so far this season.
“I’m very excited to come back to Mobile Int’l Speedway and get back to racing again in general,” said Green. “It’s been a lull in our schedule that wasn’t necessarily planned, but it will feel good to be back in the groove of a race weekend and go after a strong result.
“Mobile is one of my favorite tracks to race at, so hopefully we can dial everything in and have some fun while we’re at it.”
Though his pro late model appearances this season have been limited, Green’s highlight race so far this year was at North Wilkesboro (N.C.) Speedway in May, when he made his NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut with Roper Racing.
Beyond Saturday’s Mobile visit, Green intends to compete in at least three more pro late model events in the Gulf South during the buildup to the prestigious Snowflake 100 pro late model classic at Five Flags, held as part of the annual Snowball Derby weekend each December.
Green would like to thank Royal Vista Inc., Race Face Brand Development, and the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation for their support of his racing efforts.
