JACKSONVILLE, FL (October 1, 2008)- Jason Fitzgerald and the Mixson Motorsports Team will travel to North Georgia this weekend and compete in a pair of events.

Then on Saturday night Jason and the team will travel to Talladega Short track in Talladega, AL and compete in a $5,000 to win O'Reilly Southern All Stars sanctioned event.

Then on Saturday Jason competed again at the same track in an O'Reilly Southern All Stars Series sanctioned event in a 50-lpa $5,000 to win feature. Jason again fought the chassis setup all night finishing a disappointing 16th. Jason still remains in second place in the series point's standings and leads the series "Rookie of The Year" category.

"Were looking forward to racing this weekend and running better. We found a few things wrong with the car from last week so hopefully we'll be in contention for a win this weekend.
