I spent a few days at Westdale Secondary School in mid December. During that time, I was asked if I would like to leave the car there and have the students start to strip the car down….I said of course! Once Christmas break was over the students got busy and here is some of their […]
Okay, so the past few months have been crazy for me. The rush to get my stuff from Owen Sound, storage and into our new place, then sorting through tons of boxes and getting my living place organized was very successful but very time consuming…..and then Christmas, a time I love very much. Now it’s […]
I hope all my racing friends and fans have a great safe holiday season and a blessed 2016. I have been extremely busy preparing the shop and my new home but will get back to racing in the new year and update my sight and finish the last race…lol….I promise. Meanwhile keep Christmas in the […]
Buttons and I are moved in, but still a lot to do in the garage now, mostly putting stuff away, trying to find a place for so many collectibles over the years. I hope to have the garage complete before this weekend. Special thanks to those who have helped me get organized. Once I get […]
The past racing year has been one of the hardest on me since I started racing 47 years ago. Once our home was sold I asked the new owner if I could rent a room for Buttons and I at the home I lived in for the past 12 years and he said yes, but […]

Big Congrats To My Son David & His Team On Winning The 2015 Flamboro Speedway Championship……His 8th Major Title
I am excited, and couldn’t be prouder of my son and his accomplishmets since he started racing. It began in 1988, when I got him started in stock car racing. He had no previous experience in Go-Karts or Mini Stock, jumped right into open wheel high powered in line Hobby cars. I always wanted to […]
We had such a great car on Friday night, even Saturday during practice. Two new tires on Saturay night for the second heat wasn’t as good as we expected, but not bad. We had all day Sunday to make sure our car was ready to grab a podium finish for this final OSCAAR tour race. […]
