Flat Rock, Toledo Speedway Bulletin

(March 21, 2011) - This is the final of our winter bulletins.  All bulletins are posted on the site...no direct mail.  Flat Rock office will open April 14.  Toledo phone number is 419-727-1100.  Please share this bulletin with those who do not use the computer!

DIVISION SPONSORS/:  FIGURE 8 DIVISION:  We welcome Parts Galore as the Figure 8 division title sponsor at both tracks; R & M Recycling for the Toledo Street Stocks, ACME Distmantling for the Toledo Sportsman. They join  Moran Chevrolet (Flat Rock Late Models), DTS Drive Train Specialists (Flat Rock Street Stocks) and Jeff's Collision (4 Cylinders) as 2011 division sponsors.   Allegiant Air returns as the presenting sponsor of the Late Model Gold Cup, but we are still working on a LM Gold Cup sponsor as of this bulletin.....

FLAT ROCK LATE MODELS:  IF we get rained out of the April 30 opener, the LM's will race on the May 7 date.

PAD RENTALSHave been mailed out-Deadline is April 10.  We WILL ENFORCE THE DEADLINE.  If you do not make any effort to contact us about this....kinda hard to work with you!  2010 renters will have right of first refusal, but must be paid by the due date or you lose your pad.  A waiting list is being compiled at Flat Rock-call us if you have not done so yet to get on the list. 

15 year old competitors:  As announced March 10, ARCA will now permit 15 year olds to compete in Street Stock, 4 Cylinder and Enduro class.  They must be pre-approved prior to a race.  Questions, please call us.
