We are praying for no rain Saturday, but the forecast isn’t looking good. Calling for rain from the North Pole to Antartica.

Had some computer issues this past few days and wasn’t able to get up dated as quickly as I wanted. Please bare with me, I am in chaos right now for a short time, moving and finding a good place to keep my Mod. The Late Model is at Jason Legges and the Modified is […]
May 29th Full Throttle Speedway. The 1988 Monte Carlo was fun to drive, it just needs a few tweeks to get it better. This night was just a shake down, and we learned a lot. This car had been parked for two years, and then Jason had it rebuilt. Once the car is finished, we […]
