Go Fas Racing
Go Fas Racing (doing business as Circle Sport-Go Fas Racing LLC, and often stylized as Go FAS Racing) is an American professional stock car racing team that competes in the ASA STARS National Tour, and formerly in the NASCAR Cup Series. Founded by long-time crew chief Frank Allen Stoddard as FAS Lane Racing, it merged with Archie St. Hilaire's Go Green Racing in 2014. The team's last NASCAR Cup Series entry was the No. 32 Ford Mustang GT for Corey LaJoie. As of 2024, they compete in big late model events around the country with drivers Caden Kvapil and Brandon Barker, as well as sponsoring the ASA STARS National Tour's Go FAS Racing Pole Award.
FAS Lane Racing was established in 2011 when Stoddard's old team, Latitude 43 Motorsports, closed its doors. Stoddard then formed his own team with the remaining crew members, purchasing cars and equipment from Mark Simo and Boris Said's No Fear Racing as well as from Richard Petty Motorsports, Roush Fenway Racing and his old Latitude 43 team. FAS represents Stoddard's initials (Francis Allen Stoddard), and Stoddard chose the number 32 in tribute to his racing mentor Stub Fadden, who was a Busch North Series racer from New England.
In 2014, after a few years of struggling with team ownership, Stoddard merged the team with Archie St. Hilaire's Go Green Racing, forming Go Fas Racing. By 2017, the primary team owner was St. Hilaire with Stoddard as the team consultant and Mason St. Hilaire as the general manager.
In 2018, the team partnered with Circle Sport owner Joe Falk to use his charter on the #32, while the charter used on that car for the prior two seasons being sent to Wood Brothers Racing in a partnership with Go FAS.
On October 22, 2020, majority owner Archie St. Hilaire and team manager Mason St. Hilaire announced that they had sold their stake in GFR's charter to an undisclosed buyer, later revealed to be B. J. McLeod and Matt Tifft for Live Fast Motorsports. They also announced that GFR would exit full-time competition at the end of 2020 and run only a handful of Cup races in 2021. However, the team closed up shop soon afterwards, after not securing the sponsorship for more races.
With Stoddard serving as both owner and crew chief, the team began with Cup Champion Terry Labonte at Daytona 500, finishing a solid 15th. Veteran Mike Skinner would run the next two races. After Ken Schrader finished 33rd at Auto Club, the team became locked into the Top 35 in owner points despite failing to make Bristol with Schrader. Schrader also drove the car to a 22nd-place finish at Martinsville. The team also ran the full race at Texas with Big Red and finished 33rd. Talladega saw a change where they brought back Terry Labonte and Texas-based company C&J Energy as the sponsor. They were upfront a couple of laps with J. J. Yeley drafting with them, but the engine let go to a 34th-place finish. The team has had multiple sponsors including VA Mortgage Centers, U.S. Chrome and Big Red. FAS Lane Racing also gave 2 drivers their Sprint Cup debuts this year. Jason White was one. White ran the No. 32 GunBroker.com Ford at Pocono Raceway. He started 41st and finished 33rd. Andrew Ranger was the other. Ranger, the young Canadian from Quebec is a former NASCAR Canadian Tire Series champion. His debut came at Watkins Glen International in the Bully Hill Vineyards Ford where he started and finished 35th. His debut was cut short about 15 laps early with transmission failures. The team finished 34th in owners' points, guaranteeing the team a start in the first five races of 2012; the team later sold the owner's points to Michael Waltrip Racing in 2012 to allow Mark Martin to compete in the Daytona 500, with Labonte taking advantage of the past champion's provisional.
For 2012, FAS Lane Racing ran full-time in 2012 with Terry Labonte running 4 races with C&J Energy as the sponsor, Mike Bliss running 7 races with U.S. Chrome and Air National Guard as the sponsors, Ken Schrader running in 9 races with Federated Auto Parts as the sponsor, Boris Said running in 2 races, Reed Sorenson in select races, and other select drivers and sponsors for the remaining 13 races. After the Daytona 500, FAS Lane acquired the points from the No. 6 Roush Fenway Racing team. Ken Schrader drove in at least 9 2012 races with sponsorship from Federated Auto Parts. Also, Boris Said ran the No. 32 HendrickCars.com car at Sonoma and Watkins Glen. Jason White, Timmy Hill, T. J. Bell, and two-time K&N Pro Series East champion Mike Olsen also raced in the No. 32.
FAS Lane Racing used a variety of drivers for 2013, with Schrader, Hill, Said, and Labonte racing. On January 30, 2013, Hill declared his intention to run against Danica Patrick and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. for Sprint Cup Rookie of the Year honors.
