(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. 

...

(TOLEDO, Ohio - August 2, 2013) - An early afternoon rain stopped just before the pit area opened, allowing for Toledo Speedway’s Meijer Night at the Races to take place.  Brian Nester took the Top Speed Modified Tour race, while Kyle DeLisle Jr. was the victor in the ARCA ACME Dismantling Sportsman feature.  Tommy O’Leary captured the Road Course race as all 3 winners visited the Sun Drop Winner’s Circle.

The Top Speed Modified Tour made their initial stop at Toledo, with Brian Nester claiming the win in the 40 lap main event.  The first 13 laps saw the trio of leader Jonathan Martin, Nester and Trevor Berry run under a blanket.  They diced back and forth until Berry had an engine let go, bringing out the yellow flag on lap 13.  On the restart, Martin looped his machine, giving Nester the point and Brian took off as the race went green the rest of the way.  Nester took the win as he sailed to victory over Tim Burkett, Josh Weyher, Damon Breedlove, Greg Fuller, Dave Christiansen, Brad Wyatt, Martin, Mark Bott, Norm Taylor, Kenny Phillips, Ralph Baxter, Tommy O’Leary, Berry and Jim Resnew.  Berry set fast time at 16:689 for the 15 car field and won the fast heat.  Weyher captured the other heat win.

LaSalle, Ontario driver Kyle DeLisle picked up victory number 2 of the season, scoring the win in the 35 lap ARCA ACME Dismantling Sportsman feature.  Ron Allen led the first 8 laps until Howard Kelley Jr. motored by on the outside for the lead on lap 9.  On lap 11, the yellow appeared when Greg Stilwell and Kent McCloskey tangled.  Allen dropped out with a flat tire at that point and on the restart, DeLisle, running second, got to the front and took control of the race, which went green for the final 24 laps.  DeLisle withstood Kelley’s charge to take the win, with Mike Young third, Jim Froling fourth and Norm Lewallen fifth, followed by Kenny McKay Jr., Andy Harding, Jeff Myers Jr., David Frantz, Dan Grigsby, Rich Abel, Allen, Stilwell and McCloskey.  Allen and McKay Jr. were the heat race winners, as McKay Jr. nipped Myers Jr. by inches to win that heat race.  Young set fast time at 17:386 for the 14 car field.

...

Qualifying is up next at Toledo Speedway for Meijer Night at the Races!  The Top Speed Modified Tour is up first for time trials, followed by the ARCA ACME Dismantling Sportsman division on the 1/2 mile.

The night will be capped off with a 25 lap Road Course race, which uses parts of the 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile and pit road!  

It's overcast but nice and cool...a great night to be entertained at Toledo Speedway!  Racing begins at 7:30.

FLAT ROCK, MI: (7-30-13):  With Mother Nature’s unwanted assistance, Flat Rock Speedway has had to alter its scheduling after several rainouts in the past weeks.  Saturday, August 10, the Joy Fair Memorial and the Stan Yee Memorial will be combined into 1 race, for 150 laps.  Diamond Racing Products and Moran Chevrolet will sponsor the biggest race of the season.

“We have simply run out of dates,” noted Ron Drager, owner-promoter of the track.  “After 2 postponements of the Joy Fair Memorial and now the rainout of the Stan Yee Memorial last Saturday, our options have dwindled,” added Drager.  “We will now honor the memory of Joy Fair and Stan Yee for the August 10 race, which will be 150 laps.”

The pit pass prices and front gate prices will remain the same as they were for the 150 lap event that was scheduled for July 27.  The event will pay $2533 to win and $533 to start the contest, with over 30 drivers from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Canada expected.  The lap money will rise to $10 per lap, as the laps have sponsors for each of the 2 races.  That will now be combined to move the amount to $10 per lap.  In addition, several laps have additional bonus money attached.

Diamond Racing Products has posted $333 for fast time, in honor of Yee’s famous car number, #33.
