LIFE IS A DRAG By Dave Mance
I missed last week’s edition due
to the monsoon rains that hit on June 20th. Besides the track
being flooded, everybody would have gotten stuck in the infield
and that would not have been a good thing. I wouldn’t have been
there any way due to a family wedding in Buffalo. Suzi and I had a
great time at the wedding and a lot of fun at the casino on
Sunday. It was a good two day getaway to just relax and have fun.
I hope everybody found something to do while it rained on
Saturday.
The races on June 27th turned out
to be completely different. There where a few clouds to start the
day, but it turned out to be a fabulous night to race. The air was
good, the track was tight and 107 drivers came through the gates.
There was a great turn out of spectators to watch all the action
and a few different names to take home the winnings. So let’s
get to the winners of the night.
Super Pro 1st place – George
Smith Jr. Auburn

The street class had a double
point’s night, so it was a good opportunity for drivers to move
up on the points list to be the number one driver for the season.
The July 4th race will be a regular point’s night, and the race
on July 10th will be on Friday night due to the Whelen Tour coming
to town and racing the oval track on Saturday. (We’ll give them
1 Saturday night). July 25th, the Mustang Club is coming down to
race, and August 1st will be chassis certification at noon. If you
need your chassis inspected you better show up because Ryck won’t
be back for the rest of the year. You don’t need an appointment.
Just show up and he will inspect it. There is more going on the
rest of the season, and I’ll keep you updated in future
articles. The schedule is on the web sight along with the points
standings. Just go to Spencer Speedway.org and click on the
appropriate sight. Hope to see you all on Saturday night.
