The MASSTOWN car show brought lots of cars and fans to the event. Here these excited youngsters hold an autograph card. Bob Landry, in the back ground, one of our 2020 crew was answering questions and talking to visitors. Our next show will be Saturday August 8th in Truro Nova Scotia at the Canadian Tire […]
We finally were able to get our car to a show on Friday night. We were the only oval race car there, but it was pretty well packed with classics and hot rods. Our next show will be Saturday August 8th at the Canadian Tire in Truro. Our next race will be August 15th at […]
“All I could see was this big Quaker State logo in my mirror” stated Nevin after the race. He held me off for many laps, and in the end after both of us pitting a few times I still couldn’t pass him but sure had fun trying. Our next race is August 15th at Petty […]
We had a good run on Saturday night at Petty International Raceway. A full field was on hand, 25 fast Pro Late Models. We started 25th and stayed out of trouble finishing 148 laps and claiming 11th place. In this picture courtesy of “Ernest Pothier photos”, I battled all night with #19 Nevin Scott. We […]
This Saturday we will head to Petty International Raceway for our second race of 2020. We’re hoping our radios work this time. They were new in the off season but have been nothing but static. We had some help during the week from Brent Rowley of EIT Radios, hopefully they work away from home. If […]
New car New track New crew We got the first race of 2020 in the books on July 4th. Ironically this was our 43rd different track and Petty at that, quite a coincidence. We had trouble all day with radios and that hurt us terribly, but all in all it was a good test for […]
Getting excited for this big race July 4th. Haven’t raced 150 lapper in decades. That’s not counting a heat and maybe last chance. Yes I am somewhat nervous. New car, never been moved yet, and never been on Petty International Raceway before. I’m waiting for gaskets to come in to fix a fuel leak that […]

It will be a 150 lap race for all Pro Stock Late Models from Nova Scotia, PEI and New Brunswick. I hope to get out Friday night and […]
My daughter pictured here at Galesburg Speedway, in Michigan. This was my Championship car from 1989, and one David drove in 1990 and 1991. Shirley had a busy season racing in 1992, with races that included trips to Michigan and a bunch at Flamboro Speedway. Shirley did great her only season, racing 15 nights. She […]
It was David’s first year racing Late Models, and my final full season with the Hobby/CVM class. Both of us won our features, David winning his first in a Late Model, with many more to come, and it was my 2nd feature win of 2004. It was truly an amazing night.
There are a few types of accidents that are not good. Fire is the worst, a roll over can be just as scary, a blown engine taking you for the slide of death, and a stuck throttle. The roll over happens sometimes very slow, other times can be a few rolls (my worst 1973 had […]
I want so bad to promote my sponsors for 2020. Quaker State, Lincoln Electric, PPG, Permatex, Grind Stone, FMS, Brand Apparel, PYE Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Strictly Hydraulics. I will get a chance on June 5th for another I race to get some exposure. The Maritime Pro Stock Tour season has been cancelled until the […]
