We had a great run on Saturday night in the Modified. We had the hat trick of 3rd place finishes, grabbing 3rd in each race. We are now in sole possession of 2nd with 4 shows to go, but it will be a grind with some great teams close behind. Top 5 1st #8 Gary […]
Wow, what a great night for us at Flamboro Speedway in our OSCAAR Modified. I went to Flamboro on Tuesday night for practice to see if we could get the car dialed in. I wasn’t happy with it at Sunset the week before and just needed to get a handle on it. David offered to […]

SU Race Camp A Great Success…Thanks Sunset Speedway…& All The Volunteers For Making This Race Camp A Home Run!
The Scripture Union (SU) kids Race Camp was another successful venture that I was proud to be part of. This was the 3rd year for this Race Camp and it went well in every category. Awesome weather, lots of kids, lots of opportunity to ride go carts and my time with the different groups each […]
The 3rd annual Race Camp put on by Scripture Union and hosted by Sunset Speedway is a great success. There are close to 25 kids and they having a blast on the go-carts, playing games and of course getting to go through the tech building to see our car and learn some aspects of racing. […]
Our Sunset Speedway outing was a disappointment. We worked hard on the car most of the day trying to get it to handle. We had some good help from Brad Pearsoll and Gary McLean. Unfortunately by feature time I wasn’t confident with our car and decided to take scratch. I only do that when I […]
The 3rd Annual Kids Race Camp is coming up next week, from August 24th to the 28th at Sunset Speedway. This great Camp is hoseted by Scripture Union and we are so thankful to Sunset Speedway for allowing us to do the Camp at the track. I will be bringing the Modified for this years […]
One of my favorite events at a race track is Fan Appreciation Night, or Meet The Drivers. It gives us a chance to give back to the fans by letting them see our car up close, maybe talk to some when time permits and sign one of our autograph cards for them. It’s a great […]
Our team was invited to participate in the Waterdown Dairy Queen Fund Raiser for MacMaster hospital. It was an awesome event. The DQ raised over $10,000 again for Mac. We were there from 11am until 10:30pm, almost a 12 hour day, but incredibly awesome getting to meet and mingle with so many people. Special thanks […]
We made our first visit to Sunset Speedway in our Late Model in 2015. We ran full seasons at Sunset in 2012 and 2013, but once in the OSCAAR Modified, missed the Late Model shows that were conflicting with the Modified. It was the 3rd annual Family Faith Night, put on by 2 of my […]
This was our only scheduled visit to Sunset Speedway in 2015. We planned to come because two of our team sponsors got together to bring the 3rd annual Family Faith Night. We actually ran better than I expected and to be honest, I missed racing on this track. Very tough competition, but our car was […]
Our latest run was with the Modified at Peterborough Speedway. We thought for sure we could turn things around but had a disappointing night. The car was not right again, as though it was out of control. It wasn’t out of control, but there was little feel with entering and going through the turns. I […]

August 1st……..OSCAAR Goes To Peterborough Speedway……..Series Race #5 Racing With Hard Charging Michael Hearty #20
After a quick rest getting caught up on some home business, we are off to Peterborough Speedway for Saturday night’s Mod race #6. We are currently 3rd in the points after a disappointing finish on Saturday night. Yes we did finish 5th, but if our car was pushing so bad I think we could have […]
