Trackside Tidbits by Debi Domby
A lot of things describe what you feel when you win, joy, elation, jubilation. 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. Root was nearly lapped earlier in the race, only to come on late in the event to win his second Gold Cup feature ... the 150-lap feature a couple years ago. The largest Gold Cup field this season, 34 Super Late Models, were on hand.
...PELLETIER-FRANTZ-EARLEY BEAT THE RAIN AT FLAT ROCK (ALMOST)
(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - August 4, 2012) - For the first time since April 28, rain fell on a Saturday at Flat Rock Speedway. But a great effort by the race teams and track officials kept things moving along and allowed the Glass Unlimited Night to be nearly complete, as the Figure 8 feature was called after 14 of the 20 laps. Paul Pelletier, Rich Frantz and Billy Earley captured the wins. Walter Krause of Glass Unlimited presented the trophies and bonus money to the winning trio.
The clouds started to roll in around the 4 p.m. practice start and continued to build as approaching storms just missed the track. At 6:45, 15 minutes before start time, a heavy 10 minute downpour caused a delay, pushing the race card back to a 7:30 p.m. start. The race teams were ready and kept the race card moving through the heats and features.
...TRACK RECORD HOLDER SCHULTZ, FORMER ARCA/CRA CHAMP HANTZ ENTER MILLER LITE 100 AT TOLEDO

The race, scheduled for this Friday night, August 17, teams the ARCA Allegiant Gold Cup and the Main Event Racing Series together for the first time as the outlaw-bodied Late Models will battle in a 100 lap feature event.
...REMEMBERING MICHAEL CHAMPAGNE

Michael was a member of the United States Navy and served on the U.S.S. Cape George.
The family will receive friends at the Staffan-Mitchell Funeral Home in Chelsea, MI Monday, August 20 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 6 p.m to 8 p.m.
Services will be held Tuesday, August 21 at 11 a.m. at Shalom Lutheran Church in Pinckney, MI.
...PELLETIER FLIES TO FLAT ROCK WIN
(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - August 18, 2012) - Trenton, MI resident Paul Pelletier recorded his 5th win of 2012, taking the victory in the 50 lap ARCA Moran Chevrolet Late Model feature Saturday night at Flat Rock Speedway. Saturday was arguably the best weather of the season that greeted a good crowd that attended the Leppen Chiropractic/UAW Local 3000 Autograph Night. Fans had the chance to walk on the track and meet the drivers prior to the start of the show. Dr. Cecilia Leppen, together with her son and grandson, presented trophies to the winners, which also included Tim Moore, Rich Abel and Dennis Whisman. The speedway also honored members of the military for Armed Forces Night, as all military personnel were guests of the track Saturday evening.

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - August 25, 2012) - Flat Rock Speedway hosted Action Exteriors Kids Night Saturday, with all kids to age 14 admitted to the track free, and each child received a free hot dog, chips and a drink, courtesy of Jim’s Butcher Shop, Sherwood Foods, Dr. Pepper Snapple Group and Herr’s Potato Chips.

...STANDING-ROOM ONLY CROWD JAMS “THE ROCK” FOR SCHOOL BUS FIGURE 8 SHOW
(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - September 15, 2012) - The largest crowd in several years ventured to Flat Rock Speedway Saturday night for the Griller’s Select BBQ Sauce School Bus Figure 8 races. The final race of the season saw standing-room only at the track, and the fans were treated to a spectacular evening of entertainment. Costa Cardasis and his Griller’s Select staff presented trophies in victory lane ceremonies as well as a case of bbq sauce to each feature winner.
The headliner School Bus Figure 8 race was wild! 3 buses got knocked over on their sides as the gigantic crowd roared each time. And, each time the bus was rolled back on all 4 wheels and the drivers jumped back in and re-joined the action! Stephanie Bradley thrilled the crowd early in the contest as she went over, thanks to Dennis Whisman’s help! She jumped back in the bus and took off as the race resumed. Danny Gaddis was next to go over as Billy Earley slammed into Danny at the intersection. Next up was Danny’s father, Ray, as Ray got tagged going into the turn and went over. Thinking his day was done, Ray went up into the grandstands, but found out his bus re-started. Ray, the leader at the time, got back in the seat and kept the lead for the win over Earley, Robbie Loving, Danny Gaddis, Bradley, Whisman, and Gary Majchrzak. Bus sponsors were Suburban Oil, Griller’s Select BBQ Sauce, Parts Galore, Sportway Go-Karts and Batting Cages, Southern Belles Roller Derby Team, Sterling Printing and Graphics and Glass Unlimited.

JOHNNY VANDOORN LEADS FRIDAY GLASS CITY 200 PRACTICE
Toledo, Ohio—September 29, 2012: Coopersville, MI driver Johnny VanDoorn led a very fast practice session Friday afternoon for tomorrow’s 24th running of the Great Lakes Helicopter Glass City 200 at Toledo Speedway. VanDoorn clicked off a lap of 14:828 in preparation for the big race. A total of 29 cars took practice laps for the outlaw Late Models. Several Sportsman Cars and X Cars also took part in the 2 hour practice, held in brilliant sunshine with blue skies. The practice session was uneventful as teams worked away at getting quicker each session.
The top 10 in practice were VanDoorn, JR Roahrig, Steve Needles, Brent Jack, Terry Senneker, Dakota Carlson, Brad Rogers, Jack Varney Jr., Harold Fair Jr. and Johnny Belott.

...TOLEDO-BASED PB FAB TEAM MAKES SNOWBALL DERBY
Toledo, Ohio--December 1, 2012: Bluffton, SC driver Brad Rogers, at the wheel of the Toledo, OH based PB Fabrication team, qualified 11th out of 60 cars and is in the field for Sunday's 45th Annual Snowball Derby at the Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola, Florida. The race is for template-bodied Late Model cars.
Rogers, who has competed in the last 3 Glass City 200's at Toledo behind the wheel of the PB Fab #0 outlaw Late Model, had a great qualifying run for the race during Friday evening's qualifying session. Brad's relationship with the team began several years ago when crew chief Nick Bailey, a former Toledo Late Model driver, was working with several NASCAR teams while residing in North Carolina and became friends with Rogers.
Good luck Brad, car owner Pete Bailey, Nick and the entire PB Fab crew in Sunday's race!
