Ahhhhh….Finally, spring has arrived!
Last Friday night (May 13th) I went to Mt. Pleasant Speedway and saw some great racing action on the 3/8-mile clay oval. Continue reading “A Great Friday Night at Mt. Pleasant Speedway”
This past weekend the Rally community suffered a great loss. While competing at the Olympus Rally in Washington the #65 of Matthew Marker and Christopher Gordon left the course on stage 6 and struck a tree, fatally injuring Marker. Gordon was uninjured. Continue reading “Honoring Matthew Marker”
I have come to the conclusion that Calendar’s lie. According to the grid on my wall Spring was to have sprung over a month ago, yet here I sit, hours away from a race track with traces of white stuff still in my yard. Continue reading “Spring???!!!!”
Last weekend (April 9th) I attempted to kick off spring with some great dirt-track racing action; unfortunately the weather was uncooperative. A forecast of 70º and sunny for Eldora Speedway turned to 53º with nasty thunderstorms in the blink of an eye washing away the chance of the Saturday night portion of the Coca-Cola Spring Classic.

When most people think of spending a wintery week in Florida it is images of sandy beaches, flip-flops, and sunscreen that come to mind; but I’ve never really been like most people and when I thought of a week in Florida, one primary thing came to mind, auto racing!
From February 12-18th I soaked up some sunshine from not only those beautiful sandy beaches, but from some great grandstand seats. Continue reading “An Awesome Week of Speed in Florida”
This past weekend I attended the 8th annual Michigan Short Track Racing Club Bowling Tournament; and although my bowling skills would have easily landed me in a B or C main I had a blast attempting to bowl and catching up with friends.
This annual event held at the Capitol Bowl in Owosso, MI is not only a great way to beat the mid-winter racing withdrawals, but it is all for a great cause. Continue reading “8th annual MSTRC Bowling Tournament”
It was an exciting weekend in Montmorency Co. with the normally serene woods filled with the rumble of engines and hiss of turbo’s. On January 28-29th a county typically void of traffic and containing not a single traffic light was filled to capacity for the 2011 Sno*Drift Rally.

Last weekend I had an amazing time at a stock-car race in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I know that it sounds funny, but on January 8th and again on February 5th there is true stock car racing within the confines of the Grand Rapids DeltaPlex.
2011 is officially here and with it brings the promise of another great racing season, the only hard part is waiting for it to arrive. I myself am not really great on patience, so I will be kicking off the 2011 racing season at the end of this month (January 28-29th) on the snow and ice covered back roads of Montmorency County (Michigan).
It’s always amazing how very fast the Christmas season comes upon us; I love the cheerful greetings and hustle and bustle of the holidays.
