McClure, a former driver himself joins Fast Track Racing with an impressive resume and was responsible for leading driver Ken Butler III to his first ARCA RE/MAX Series victory at Toledo Speedway last May. McClure also assisted rookie Dominick Casola to his career best third-place performance at Talladega Superspeedway in October.
