When God puts someone on your heart, always connect with them no matter how much you see them, there’s a reason.
Jeff Warnes battled cancer and was given no hope of a cure from the Doctors. But there is always hope from God. I talked to Jeff a few times, the last call was on January 22nd. I told him how much God loved him and that I loved him as well. Jeff asked me if I would put something on my car so he could race around with me and I said of course.
Jeff passed away on January 25th. I was heart broken, but glad that he wasn’t suffering anymore.
Jeff loved racing, helping both David and I at times He was also was a huge fan of the Hamilton Tiger Cats. His favortie player was #31 Sean Thomas Erlington.
Here is Jeff’s request. God bless Ron Warnes Jeff’s dad and all Jeff’s family and friends .

I loved going to stock car races when I was a kid. I had a few favorite drivers,
Terry Dickenson in the Hobby Class, Vic Parsons in the Late Model and most of all, Glen Schurr in the Super Modifieds. I would eventually take the #36 for my races cars after my hero Glen Schurr, although #9 was a thought because of my favorite hockey player Andy Bathgate who was #9 and so was Vic Parsons. I would use the number 9 twice in my career, in 1985 in the Hooby class when I painted my Coupe like Bill Elliotts, and in 2009 when I ran full time at both Delaware and Flamboro Speedway.
I used #9 on Friday nights, and of course #36 the rest of the season on my other car.
But about this picture.
Since I couldn’t race when I was 20 (no drivers license) I decided to try Demolition Derbys. I always enjoyed them. I was a bit rowdy at 20 and was determined not to sand bag. I hated to see guys stay out of the action until near the end. They would save their car and come in to clean up when everyone else was all but destroyed.
I had an impact on sandbagging by 1968 when I convinced promoters to give the win to the driver that put on the best show…..if 2 or 3 did and they were still bashing it out at the end, then give it to the last car running, not the driver with little damage who survived and won because he stayed out of the battle.
This 1955 Chev was bought for $50, it was rusted pretty bad. It had an inline six and ran quite well. I always used the name “Color Me First” on all my 20 demolition cars, winning 6 of the 20 shows I was in.
I literally beat this car to nothing and we got the win and $150. That was 2 weeks pay. The smile lasted for weeks.
I will post a few more Demo wins.
I will be posting a picture soon of my finished Pro Late Model for 2020.

I am pleased to announce that Flamboro Machine Shop, FMS, will be back with our team in 2020. John has an amazing business doing high end fabrication for the all industry, commercial, construction, steel plants etc. John has supported many racers over the year building, repairing and supplying things they need for the season, but also during the season. Located near Flamboro Speedway, John attends most of the races and it’s not unusual for John to make or repair a part for a race team he doesn’t know to help them get back on the track.
His logo will be on our 2020 version Pro Late Model.
