5/24 - I want to thank everyone who helped and participated in todays Car show /BBQ. It started off quite interesting with the Visit from Mr. Lucia. I don’t think he know’s how much pull I have in this Village, Oh well. I also want to congratulate the raffle winners. Till next time. Life only goes around once , you may as well go in circles.
5/26 - Had a great time watching the King spank them guys all nightat the Wheels. Finaly got to meet a bunch of DTD members and hang out and shoot the shit. A great time all together.
5/31/08- Our largest field since our inception in 2006. A great night of racing. I want to thank all the teams for the super jobs they did.. New comers to the club and all you rookies ,I couldn’t be more proud of the way you handled your selves and the way you drove. The club and its members A+ for the evening. As far as the non-racing issues , it will be taken care of. We have come a long ways in 3 years and now its time not to go through the other issues we all put up with from the past. Thank You teams , see you Friday at one of our favorite facilities.
5 / 31 / 08
The CRSA sprint car series makes there way to Penn Can Speedway on Friday June 6th. This is one of our groups favorite tracks. They have been with us since our inception and its just a great place to go. There should be another stellar field of cars making the trip. Last season we had some great shows there and were all in for more exciting action. With a bunch of new comers and rookies plus our regular wheelmen ,we will see one thrilling show. All the teams are fan friendly so make sure you stop by and say hello. See you all there.
6/04/08 - There have been a lot of negative things posted on the internet lately. Lets all sit back and think about what is going on. I posted a few paragraphs about Fonda a couple months ago that I shouldn’t have posted. This had nothing to do with the club not getting a race there , that is always up to the promoter. It did have to do with the way I felt. I also think that if you are a promoter at a track and there’s a organization in your home town it would be the right thing to do in having that organization at your facility. As for the reasons I understand why we didn’t get a race there. Well, all I can say is Mr. Lucia should have asked me about them and not yelling and screaming. I can say many things about what I have been through the past three years with this club and with many promoters. I will not bash any promoter for any reason that has to do with CRSA. I do remember what takes place when we run at their facility and that alone will tell me if we return for another show. Let's all get on with our great sport as I am very busy working on our series for 08 with maybe some BIG BIG BIG news for 2009.
