The Performance Racing Industry (PRI) Trade Show in Indianapolis signals the beginning of the end of the 2014 racing season for Thomas “Moose” Praytor and his DK-LOK Team. Home to thousands of racing vendors touting their latest products to racers from all over the country the PRI Show is the perfect lead in to the ARCA Championship Banquet on Saturday night.
During the 2013 ARCA Championship Banquet Praytor was awarded the HG Adcox Sportsmanship Award. “The Adcox Sportsmanship Award is by far the biggest honor I have ever received in my life,” said Praytor. “If I never get to turn another lap in a race car my name is on the list of recipients and there are a lot of big time racers on that list.”
This Saturday night at the Indiana Convention Center, Praytor and his DK-LOK Race Team are slated to pick up the hardware for finishing 7th in Championship standings. “It has been an incredible run that we couldn’t have accomplished without our marketing partners at DK-LOK, our team and Wayne Hixson.”
On Sunday the Moose will head back to Nashville with So Good Entertainment to take part in the Inaugural American Country Countdown Awards. In addition to the Moose pulling seat filler duties, So Good Entertainment has made it possible for a 20 person contingent from Mobile to take part in the broadcast as the group in front of the stage. “I had a blast at the CMA’s and now we’re getting an opportunity to have some more Mobile people take part in the fun!”
The ACC Awards will air live on Fox at 7:00PM CST Monday night. Carrie Underwood will get the party started with Florida-Georgia Line, Miranda Lambert, Kelly Clasrkson, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney and more performing with a special appearance by Reba McEntire.
