I picked up the Late Model from Jason Legge who has been very helpful to me this winter. We have a long list of things to do. We don’t want to miss any scheduled events, it’s important to keep our streak of 753 consecutive nights going. The next few weeks will be intense, but it’s […]
The Modified is done chassis, shock, engine wise, but the body needs complete sanding, all exterior and interior panels, then it has to be loaded to power wash the chassis and frame, drive line etc. Wheel bearings will have to be repacked and brakes bled. The body panels go for painting the end of this […]
A little behind, but the Modified is home now. Bumpers out getting Chromed at Metal Coaters. New paint to be done on the sheet metal of the Modified, decals will be and then sent to Josh Watson to do his magic. More updates on the OSCAAR Mod soon……the Late Model is still being worked on […]
I posted this picture the other day and noted there was one racer that I did not know his name. Steve Trendell message me his name this morning. He is sitting on the second row, at the far right. He’s Bob Beck, and I should have known him because in 1973 my brother-in-law Harry Bow […]
How great it is for our team to have Ron Easton of Oakville Trailers sponsor us for the 2016 race season. I have dealt with Ron for many years with all my cars, our CVM Coupe, Late Model and now Modified. There isn’t a race car that Ron and his shop can’t build, fix, fabricate […]

On April 2nd the CVM/Hobby Club held their 50th Anniversary celebration event at the Legion in Dundas. The Hobby’s, known as the Jalopies during their beginning, raced at the CNE when it opened in the early 50’s until it closed in 1966. A group of men decided to preserve these nostalgic race cars forming a […]
These pictures from March 30th show our Modified taking shape. Mostly cosmetic updates for this year. Things have been hectic for me causing a slow start on our cars, but we are in high gear now and looking forward to getting both cars home and finished. The Modified will be painted by Josh Watson once […]
Gary Elliott Motorsports is very proud to once again run the PPG logo as the official paint supplier for our race team. This will be season #4 with PPG and we look forward to a great season being an ambassador for their fine products.
I am very fortunate to have so many good associate sponsors for our race team. Grind Stone joined us in 2008, our 40th year racing, and has been a great sponsor with us. If you wonder why I have 2 landscaping sponsors it’s because the owners of both Timber Green and Grind Stone are father […]
My good friend and brother in Christ, Henry Linde has agreed to sponsor us again in 2016. Timber Green started with us in 2008 and this will be their 9th season sponsoring our team. We are very thankful for the support from Timber Green, and though they do not have a web site, their logo […]
