Two weekends ago Louie and Stephen came by to finish stripping the Modified, leaving just a steel frame. Last Wednesday Louie and I made a dolly out of ply would and casters to move the chassis around. It’s now at Rival Sand Blasting in St.Catharines, then will get powder coated after. Next step is to […]

I sent our Modified to Oakville Trailers for Ron Easton to do some work on the chassis, and make the new body panels needed for the car. He did a great job as always. Next step is to get it sand blasted and powder coated. Thanks for visiting our site

Well, it is down to the bare bones now. We wanted to do a face lift on our Modified and go for the Championship in 2018, our 50th year. Louie has been a great help getting the car stripped. We already have a new fuel cell, rad and electric fan, and we will order many […]

We have started on our 2018 race program. My goals are simple, go for the OSCAAR Modified title, and compete as competitively as we can in the Pro Late Model series at Flamboro with my son David…but with a new program there….more on that later. I wanted to get an early start because 2018 is […]

We had a great season with the Modified. Of the 9 features we ran, all nine were in the top 10 and four of those 9 in the 5. We had 3 heat wins and a few others in the top three. We moved into 5th in points on the last night of racing, giving […]

Well we did it, and God had His hand upon the outcome. How good was it to have our final night at maybe the biggest show, Autumn Colors Classic at Peterborough Speedway. We lost 3 races to rain, I accidentally called Jukasa Speedway a 2 race show and it was only one. we did get […]

We will hit our 800th consecutive night of racing at the 3 day Autumn Colors Classic in Peterborough. Ironically our 700th consecutive night was also in the Modified at Sunset Speedway. I am very proud of this accomplishment and grateful to all those who have made it possible. First I thank God for providing me […]

We raced our 798th consecutive night at Sunset Speedway on Sunday the 24th of September. We have 2 more races to go to hit 800, Flamboro’s Octoberfest and then Autumn Colors on Thanksgiving Weekend. We had a great run in our Modified, starting 23rd and finishing 9th. I drove about as hard as I ever […]

Early in the year Rob DiVenanzo asked if there was any races he could get from either of my cars. I had decided to race the Late Model more this year so I gave Rob 3 Modified shows to do, all OSCAAR. His first one was August 5th at Peterborough Speedway but he was unable […]

It was a good night for our team overall. We didn’t win the feature, and we really wanted to, and we sure did try. Our 40th career feature win will have to be on hold for a while. The truth is, we have to drive so very hard with the HP we have, and it’s […]

The past weekend we were supposed to race Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Friday was great, Saturday we got the first feature in, but lost the second to rain, and Sunday was cancelled late Saturday night. This picture was after the feature at Kawartha…we were very happy. This weekend we race the Modified at Flamboro. We […]

We will race our Modified this Saturday, June 24th at Flamboro Speedway. The next 2 weeks are Modified races, including July 1st at the beach, Sauble Speedway. Hope to see my fans and friends at Flamboro Speedway this Saturday. Thanks for visiting our site.
