Toledo, Ohio—July 12, 2012:  In a mutual decision among both the Buckeye 305 Sprint Car tour and Toledo Speedway, the Friday, August 10 show has been cancelled at the Glass City oval.  The group has experienced short fields for several events this season and the decision has been made to cancel the race at Toledo.

“We have been in constant communication with the Buckeye 305 Sprint Series for several weeks regarding the Toledo race,” said Scott Schultz, General Manager of Toledo.  “The group has had short fields for several of their races and it was agreed that it was in the best interest of the Series and Toledo Speedway and its fans to cancel this event.”

“With that said, we have confidence in the group and we will begin discussions this fall regarding booking dates for the 2013 season at both Toledo and Flat Rock Speedways,” added Schultz.  “We will continue to work with the series.”

With the cancellation, Toledo track management will make a schedule adjustment.  The Figure 8 Train Race, originally set for the August 3 date, will now move to Friday, August 10.

...

(TOLEDO, Ohio - July 13, 2012) - As promised, Santa Claus made good on the delivery of over 60 prizes that were handed out in the annual Christmas In July promotion Friday evening at Toledo Speedway.  The Jolly Old Elf was at the track to greet fans young and old.  Velvet Ice Cream and Lakeshore Utility Trailer Sales served as sponsors of the night of racing at the Glass City track.

 

Jim Froling, Cory McCaughey, Scott Apperson and Kyle Trinklein took the feature wins and received their trophies in the Sun Drop Winner’s Circle from Gene Little of Lakeshore Utility Trailer Sales.

...

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - July 14, 2012) - Tadek Stadniczuk pocketed over $1400 for his win in Saturday night’s ARCA DTS Drive Train Specialists Street Stock 100 lap main event at Flat Rock Speedway. Santa Claus was on hand for the track’s annual Christmas in July prize giveaway, as over 50 prizes were given out to the fans.  Troy Brehmer edged out Rick Bennett to win a great 30 lap Street Stock B Main race, while Greg Studt held off a strong, strong run by Gary Cronenwett to win the 20 lap ARCA Parts Galore Figure 8 feature race.

The track’s Street Stock class, regarded as one of the most competitive groups in the area, had 39 cars in the pit area for their biggest race of the season.  Rich Frantz set the Fastime Racing Engines and Parts quick time with a lap of 13:452, while Joe Haener was the B Main fast qualifier at 14:098.

...

With the entire Midwest under an Excessive Heat Warning Friday, the ARCA Allgiant Air Gold Cup went on as scheduled at Toledo (Ohio) Speedway on Friday. Harold Fair Jr. won the race.

It was the temperature and high heat indices that was the story prior to the race. At qualifying it was 96 degrees and a heat index of 105 according to the National Weather Service. The race was scheduled to start just after 7:30 with a temperature of 95 degrees and an heat index of 103 but it was put on hold about a half hour while several heat induced medical emergencies occurred on pit road and were taken care of by the EMTs.

When the cars took to the frontstretch about 8:15, the temperature had dropped to 90 degrees but the heat index was still 103. Luckily for drivers and the sparse crowd that braved the heat, a light cloud cover appeared in time for the start of the race. At the halfway point the drivers all came down pit road and ARCA officials provided them with water (no work was allowed) by this time the temperature had dropped to 87 degrees and a heat index of 98. At race end it was 84 with a heat index of 93, because of the high oppressive humidity.

Now for the race ...

(FLAT ROCK, MI) - July 23, 2012 - A total of 23 cars have registered as of Monday morning for this Saturday’s Moran Chevrolet/Stan Yee Memorial 150, set for Saturday evening, July 28 at Flat Rock Speedway.  The event, recognized as one of the top outlaw Late Model events in the area, is expected to draw over 30 entries and will pay $2533 to win and $533 to start the contest.

...

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - July 24, 2012) - Current ARCA Allegiant Gold Cup Series point leader Dakota Carlson of Cedar Springs, MI has inked his entry for Saturday’s Moran Chevrolet/Stan Yee Memorial 150 at Flat Rock Speedway.  As of noon Tuesday, 28 cars are entered for the race at the ¼ mile paved oval.

...

FLAT ROCK, MI: (7-25-12):  An open practice is scheduled for today, Wednesday, July 25 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. as teams prepare for Saturday’s Moran Chevrolet/Stan Yee Memorial 150 at Flat Rock Speedway.  The pit area opens at 4 p.m. The practice is open to any type of race car.

The 4 hour practice session is expected to be busy as nearly 30 ARCA Moran Chevrolet Late Models have entered the race, which honors the memory of Stan Yee Sr., who owned Late Models for over 40 years.  Stan passed away in May of 2008.  His famous #33 cars won numerous big events and championships throughout his career, including the 2003 Flat Rock Late Model crown with his son, Stan Jr.

...

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - July 26, 2012) - Wednesday night’s practice session at Flat Rock Speedway saw 19 Late Models burn up the ¼ mile paved oval as final preparations take place for Saturday’s Moran Chevrolet Stan Yee Memorial 150 for the ARCA Moran Chevrolet Late Model class. 

...

(TOLEDO, Ohio - July 27, 2012) - Rain put a damper on Friday night’s Teamster Local 20 Kids Night at Toledo Speedway, cancelling the racing card for the evening. 

All Teamsters Local 20 tickets dated July 27 will be honored next Friday, August 3.  The Kids Night promotion has also been rescheduled for next Friday night.  All kids up to age 14 will be admitted FREE and receive a free hot dog, chips and a drink, courtesy of the Dr. Pepper/Snapple Group, Sherwood Foods and Herr’s Potato Chips. 

Jeff’s Collision of Toledo will also sponsor the August 3 show.  The ARCA ACME Dismantling Sportsman, Parts Galore Figure 8’s, ARCA 4 Cylinders and Michigan Legends Cars will be in competition.

The gates will open at 5 and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

...

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - July 28, 2012) - It’s a race that will be talked about for a long, long time.  5 different leaders, side by side, sometimes 3-wide racing and just great action from the front to the back.  A stellar field and superb driving by the entire 24 car field set the stage and wrote the book on what race fans come to see at the local short tracks across the nation every summer weekend.  This story will not do this race justice—you really need to talk to the fans that were at Flat Rock to witness this incredible race.

And Saturday night at Flat Rock Speedway, the ARCA Moran Chevrolet Late Models put on perhaps the best race in years for the division at the fast and extremely competitive ¼ mile paved oval.  Grand Rapids, MI driver Mike Root charged to the front after dropping back as far as 20^th and powered by Harold Fair Jr. and then Scott Hantz on the high side with 3 laps to go to win the sensational Moran Chevrolet Stan Yee Memorial 150 in front of an excellent crowd on a perfect evening.  Dick Barker, representing Moran Chevy, presented the Gold Cup to Mike, while Ann Yee awarded Root the 5 foot Stan Yee Memorial trophy in victory lane ceremonies.  The 150 lap race was also leg number 5 of the ARCA Allegiant Gold Cup Series.

Mike Root won the ARCA Allegiant Air Gold Cup Stan Yee Memorial 150 at Flat Rock Speedway and added a couple unusual reactions, such as baffled, dumfounded and mystified.

The largest Gold Cup field this season, 34 Super Late Models, were on hand.
