TOPEKA, KS-- Jenny White of Topeka, KS is the first female driver to register a car for the newly formed American Stockcar Series (ASL).

The new series has two stops on her home track. The series will contest 150-lap races on the high banked half-mile I-70 Speedway in Odessa, MO Saturday night, April 30 and Friday night, Sept. 30.

Jim White, Jenny's dad, is happy that Mid-American Stock Inc. has picked up the division for 2005. "We bought this car for the ASA Touring Series. They had problems, but we are extremely happy to have a place to race this car this year," he said.

"We've practiced with the car, but honestly have to get a lot faster by April 30," he admitted.

Jenny White has excelled both on the race track and in the classroom. She has been a brillant student.

She has earned a 4.0 grade point average through grade school, middle school, high school and college.

She is currently studying as a Business Administration major at the University of Kansas.

Her on the track accomplishments are equally amazing. She won the World Cup 200 late model race at I-70 in 2003 and finished second in the track's NASCAR point standings. Before moving into a late model car, she competed in quarter midgets. She is a two-time national champion in those cars, won 16 regional titles, and established over 50 track records coast to coast.

Mid-American Stock Car Inc. also operates the Midwest AllStar Late Models, Mid-American Stock Car Series, Mid-Am Super Trucks and Stock Car Classics.
