I took our Quaker State Late Model to church Sunday, in Port Perry. There were about 100 people, a great barbecue with many kids getting their pictures taken with me and in the car. Thanks to the great people of Victory Christian Centre for their love and hospitality.

Our team took a hit in the points with our worst run in the Modifieds since joining the series. We could not get the handling for the big half mile track. We thought we were going the right way after the first set of hot laps when our car was tight in the middle, but […]

We didn’t win any races yet at Full Throttle Motor Speedway, but we had our best run this past weekend. Lloyd got his spotters initiation because there was no one else in our crew at the races. Lloyd was a huge help getting our pits prepared and the car ready for practice. There were only […]
We had our Modified at MacMaster GMC in Orangeville on Saturday from 9:30 until it rained, around 3. Tom and Anne Walters were there as well, with his Late Model. Lloyd Lariviere, our crew member was there with me, he came from Barrie to help me and I appreciated it very much. It was a […]
We are praying for no rain Saturday, but the forecast isn’t looking good. Calling for rain from the North Pole to Antartica. Last year there was a similar scare, it was to be the mother of all rain storms. People rushed out getting sand bags, rubber boots, canoes, rafts, and fishing line….well!!!….that’s how bad it […]
I want to say again, thank you very much to Jason & Michelle Legge for allowing me to call their shop my home. I now have a place for part of my museum, and my Late Model. I went to the Legger Race Shop on Tuesday and stayed until Thursday to get my bay and […]
We had our Quaker State Impala on display for 3 days at John Bear GMC Chevrolet in St. Catharines from June 17th to 19th. This was a cusotomer appreciation event and was very successful. Our next show is this Saturday, June 27th, at MacMaster Buick GMC in Orangeville.
