Jackslash Heads South for the Hank Arnold Memorial

Tucson, Arizona (August 12th, 2009) – Sean Buckley and the Jackslash crew will head south to Tucson’s USA Raceway marking his first visit to Arizona’s premiere short track. Buckley will be calling the ASCS Discount Tire Labor Day double header that will honor Tucson’s Hank Arnold.

Arnold, a legendary racer as well as a master craftsman, was instrumental in bringing the future of open wheel racing full circle. He won more than 160 main events, held 17 track records and built cars with names like the "Twister" and "Little Stinker."

Jackslash will be on hand to rock the house offering his legendary hard core media style and his astounding love for open wheel racing.

"I'm really excited about coming to Tucson." "I've always heard great things about the place and amazingly enough, I've never seen a race there." Commented Buckley

"The ASCS guys are good racers and I look forward to seeing them!" "Labor Day Weekend cannot come soon enough!"
