Diecast Cars Celebrating Our 50th Year With Quaker State Are Here
It’s been a busy past month with Buttons sick and working constantly on the Diecast and race car.
I am still having issues with Go Daddy on my site being so slow at times. I can’t maneuver from page to page on my Message Board and that’s very frustrating. When I try to update my Message Board, the past 15 times, since our race at Peterborough Speedway, the message comes up saying our page “Timed Out”.
Anyway, I will keep calling Go Daddy to get it fixed.
Meanwhile the Diecast cars came in and they are a home run. I called Lionel telling them I expected a Lincoln Continental and got a Rolls Royce. I asked God to be in this with me from the beginning and it sure paid off. The people at Lionel Racing, John Strizzi especially, were very easy to work with.
I will hopefully get my Message Board updated with the final race and the current progress on our 2023 race program.
If you would like a Diecast Car, they are $125 plus shipping, they represent the longest driver/sponsor partnership in racing history…..and that my friends by a grass roots Canadian racer. If you want one, you can email me at garyelliottmotorsports@gmail.com

Merry Christmas And May God Bless You In 2023
What a special time of year this is as we celebrate the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ. The Angels told the shepherds “Unto you today in the town of Bethlehem is born a Savior who is Christ the Lord”.
We will never die but have eternal life says Jesus if we have faith and believe in Him. To prove His power, He defeated death and did it for us.
Praying you all have a great Christmas and a blessed 2023.
Jesus is the reason for the season.

The Body Is Close To Completion…..Rockers, New Hood Still To Fit
We’ve had a very busy post season working on the car to get it ready as soon as possible. We have finished the body, and still need to fit the rocker panels and a new hood. The rockers will be easy, the hood is always tricky.
All the maintenance is done, new brakes, quick change repair, engine checked, wheel bearings packed, lead painted and other small things fixed.
We will finish the body soon, then have our painter from PYE Chevrolet come by and stripe out the area to be painted gold.
I have been having issues updating Diary of a Season 2022 and 54 Years of Stats because my site keeps timing out.
I hope to have that rectified soon.
Thanks for visiting our site.
We should have the Diecast cars in 3 weeks, over 450 have been sold so far of 700.
If you would like one, text me at 905-928-8086.

Rebuild Continues As New Body Goes On
We’ve been working steady on the car the past few weeks to get it done before the new year. My crew have been very supportive dedicating their time to come over and get things done on the car.
Once the front end is in, the fenders, nose and steel bumper we will be close to being finished. Then our painter will come over and mark where the colors need to be painted gold and black.
So far it has been a lot of work but fun.
PS….I’m still having issues with slow performance for my site, in fact all my computer issues are slower than they use to be. Hopefully I can ge them to rectify that so I can update the final race Peterborough Speedway and 53 Years of Stats.

2023 Rebuild Underway….If My Message Board Is Responding I Will Post Pictures
The boys have been busy coming to the shop helping get our car stripped, cleaned, and replacing new parts and servicing others.
I should have an update on all we’ve done soon on the Message Board “Diary of a Season 2022”.
The engine was sent out, tested and returned, not needing a rebuild and that is amazing with 34 nights and 4000 laps on it.
I have been very busy collecting payment for our special 50th Anniversary with Quaker State, selling and collecting for the Diecast cars.
Sales have been really good and hopefully we will have a few of the 700 left over for 2023 fans to purchase.
Thank you for visiting our site.
Work On The Car & Equipment Has Started….Trailer Getting New Floor
I have so many areas in our race program to get fixed that I need to start early. My crew here of Shannon, Bob, Chris, Jack, and Alex are helping us get this moving so we can take advantage of warmer days.
I finally was able to update Diary Of A Season 2022, the trip and Flamboro race. Autumn Colors at Peterborough will be next.
Thanks for visiting our site.
Rebuild Has Begun
My crew came over on Saturday the 23rd to do some work on the car for 2023.It was quite a busy day for
Shannon, Bob, Chris and Jack.
We got everything done we wanted including stripping the body and removing the drive line. We will continue on the rebuild early November as some of our crew members are away and the banquet is coming up on November 5th.
Meanwhile Chris will be here this Saturday and we will remove the flooring from the trailer and get a new floor cover installed. Then soon after new panels on the outside of the trailer.
Here’s one picture from last Saturday.
I have been having issues trying to update Diary of a Season 2022, the final two races. I can’t get on the posts to update. It might be the slowness of my computer, but I am working on that as well.
Thanks for visiting our site. 🙂
Flamboro Speedway Oct 2nd With Billy Schwartzenburg
Here is a picture from Ashley McCubbin I just received from Flamboro October 2nd.
We will make sure in 2023 we have better shocks on the car to help it turn better.
I hope to have both race reports done soon, just need my Diary of a Season part of this site to be fixed so I can post results.
Thank you for visiting our site.
