What a great finish for the East Coast International Pro Stock Tour series. After 11 events we finished the series in 10th place in the point standings. This was our 47th top 10 points finish in 55 years racing. The day went very well for our team. I was determined to run hard in the […]

This Saturday will be the final race for the East Coast International Pro Stock Tour. We showed up every race and will finish 10th no matter what happens this weekend. I wanted to finish better but we did good considering the year we had and I am good with a top 10, so is my […]

We did it. Finished on the lead lap….all 150 laps …..and first in our age group 🤣. What a great night. The car was working well. No issues. I was a little tired but kept pace with the back 5 cars. Such a relief to drive that hard and not put a mark on the […]

We’ve had a very busy past 2 weeks getting the car ready after a series of mechanical issues that I believe are all fixed now. This Friday I am doing a show at Canadian Tire in Truro from 11:30 until 3. Then I head to the Rath Eastlink Community Centre, home of the Truro Bearcats, […]

They say bad luck comes in threes. That theory applied to us this past weekend when we suffered our 3rd DNF in a row, this time from a brake pedal going to the floor over 100 mph. The brakes were bled during our weekly maintenance on the car, and the pedal was rock hard, just […]

We were doing great in the Summer Clash 250 at Scotia Speedworld on Saturday the 12th….sorry for the late response, did get our show and race reports done though. We stayed in the top 14 all race, even looking like we could get a top 10 in this long tough race. On lap 234, we […]

We had our car on display this past Thursday for the Summer Clash Show & Shine event held at Scotia Speedworld. There were big trucks, food trucks, Classic cars and lots of race cars. We stayed from 4 until dark. I got to meet lots of fans and mingle with my racing buddies. Here is […]

We have put a lot of hours in so far to get our car fixed. My excellent crew have been a huge help as always. Though this wasn’t a severe wreck, these cars are so sophisticated, it doesn’t take much to make the repairs a long process. So far repairs and parts have included: *Radiator […]

It was one race I was really looking forward to. Short track, love the atmosphere and run well here. After struggling to get the car set up we finally were flying by our heat race and feature. We were using 180 lap tires for practice, a budget thing. We couldn’t get to the lap times […]

We also won the Hard Charger Award sponsored by Kenny U-Pull. God is so good.

Wow, we had our best race since coming to Nova Scotia and racing in the East Coast International Pro Stock Tour. We removed the bump stops a few weeks ago and keep seeing better results with a more consistent car to drive and set up. I have taught my crew how to set up this […]

This weekend is a mess, like most around this country. We’ve had cold and damp the past 6 weeks and a ton of rain this month already. This Saturday in the Fleetrite 150 at Petty. It’s been calling for rain all week and so far some Friday night races have been cancelled. Our race is […]
