(press release courtesy of Speed51.com)

Hickory, NC — A spring tradition in the Carolinas which has grown each year is the PASS Easter Bunny 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway.  This year, Easter weekend will be bigger than ever at “The Birthplace of the NASCAR Stars,” and fans unable to attend the event can spend the holiday weekend watching along on Speed51.TV.

With COVID-19 leading to the cancellation of the 2020 Easter Bunny 150, the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) will contest two 150-lap Super Late Model features.  They will be joined by the American-Canadian Tour (ACT), making its first trip to the North Carolina bullring.

Racing on both Friday and Saturday, April 2-3, will be streamed live on Speed51.TV, allowing fans from around the world to watch all of the excitement.

“The Easter Bunny has established itself as one of the spring's biggest races over the last 15 years,” said PASS President Tom Mayberry.  “With the addition of ACT and two big nights of action for the PASS Super Late Models, there should be a captive audience at track and watching on Speed51.”

Fans will be able to purchase one-day pay-per-view tickets for each evening of racing, as well as a two-day pass for the best value on Easter Bunny 150 weekend.

The one-day passes will be $24.99 per day, granting access to Speed51.TV’s broadcast on either Friday or Saturday.  For $39.99, fans can purchase the two-day pass to watch both nights of racing. Visit www.speed51.tv/products/ppv-easter-bunny-weekend-pass to sign up for the broadcast.
