51 Sports Press Release

As a vow to our fans to continue the web’s best short track racing coverage in 2012, Speed51.com has added three new positions to its staff for the new racing season.  Three regional Editors have been named and will provide in-depth race coverage, regional stories and columns and much more.

Mike Twist has been named as the Northeast Editor for Speed51.com and has already re-introduced his “Northern Exposure” column this week and has more in the works from his Maine headquarters.  Twist has been an integral part of Speed51.com’s growth over the years and the fans in the Northeast and beyond can expect even more great things in 2012.

Matt Prieur joins the staff of Speed51.com as the Midwest Editor in 2012.  A periodic “Midwest Minutes” column will be introduced soon from Prieur and he will be the hub of information for 51 throughout the Midwest.

Also, Daniel Vining, who led 51′s coverage of the Blizzard Series and more in 2012, will return as the Deep South Editor.  Vining will continue to hold the Blizzard beat, as well as cover many events throughout the Deep South and more with periodic columns and feature stories.  More announcements on new and returning Speed51.com staff for the 2012 staff will be made soon.
