(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - August 10, 2013) - Phil Bozell, making his first-ever start at Flat Rock Speedway, nosed by Harold Fair Jr. with 10 laps to go, setting up another incredible finish as 4 cars resembling a 4 car dash battled to the wire in the Joy Fair Memorial-Stan Yee Memorial 150, sponsored by Moran Chevrolet and Diamond Racing Products.  Bozell had enough to nip Terry
Senneker, Fair Jr. and Dennis Strickland to win the event, which saw the first 83 laps run without a yellow flag.

As was the case in the 2012 edition of this race, which saw Mike Root pass 2 cars on the high side in the closing laps, this story cannot properly describe this 150 lap classic.  It’s very simple—ask anyone that witnessed this race, which was leg number 5 of the Glass City Gold Cup Series.

Members of the Fair and Yee family presented the Gold Cups and trophy to Phil in the Sun Drop Winners Circle.  A large crowd turned out to fill the Joy Fair Grandstand and witnessed tremendous competition, as 42 cars were on hand for the prestigious race, which has become one of the “can’t miss” Late Model races in the area.

The Fair Memorial, which was originally scheduled for 100 laps, was rained out June 22 and again July 6.  The Yee Memorial fell victim to rain July 27, and with the 2013 schedule winding down, the 2 Memorial events were reset and combined into 1 race for Saturday, honoring Joy Fair and Stan Yee Sr.

...

There are 42 Late Models in the pits and practice has begun for tonight's Joy Fair Memorial-Stan Yee Memorial 150 at Flat Rock Speedway! 

The Figure 8's and Sportsman are arriving now.  And it looks like no rain!

It's the biggest show of the season--see you tonight!

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - August 3, 2013) - Sunshine and clear skies finally returned to Flat Rock Speedway for a Saturday night of racing, featuring a last-lap pass by Rob Moore for the win and a great battle to the finish in the 250 lap Enduro race, with Rayce Metdepennigen awarded the win.    David Price grabbed the 4 Cylinder win.  All 3 drivers took their cars to the Sun Drop Victory Lane.

The 25 lap ARCA DTS Street Stock feature race was accident-filled, including a complete restart of the race when front row starters Clyde McKee and Corey Duane tangled, collecting Tim Moore and a host of other cars.  When the race went back to green flag, McKee darted out front with the lead.  Through several yellow flags, Clyde kept the point but with 2 laps to go, the yellow appeared again, bunching the field for another double-file restart.  After a couple of tries, the green was displayed.  Rob Moore was in second spot and as the cars came to the white flag, McKee slid up the track, Moore slid back under and nosed into the lead as the checkered flag appeared, giving Moore the edge for the exciting victory.  Kyle Worley was also able to get by McKee at the stripe to take second, McKee was third, Landon Schuster fourth and Craig Lange fifth, followed by Guy Fire, Danny Bennett, Steve Searles, Scot Bunge and Scott Selmi.
