Mall Shows Signal Start of Flat Rock, Toledo Racing Season

TOLEDO OH (3-31-08)--There's something about walking into Frenchtown Square Mall in Monroe and Westfield Franklin Park in Toledo at this time of year and seeing the freshly-painted, sharp-looking race cars on display in the concourse, signaling the fast-approaching racing seasons at Flat Rock Speedway and Toledo Speedway.

Division Sponsors, New Marketing Partners Set for 2008

TOLEDO, OH (3-28-08)--Flat Rock and Toledo Speedway are proud to announce the return of a majority of the race car division sponsors for the upcoming 2008 season, the addition of one new title sponsor and the new association with several companies at both tracks.

Moran Chevrolet of Clinton Township, MI and Miller Lite, through O & W, Inc. of Ypsilanti, will again return as co-sponsors of the ARCA Late Model class at Flat Rock Speedway. The duo begins its second year of title sponsorship of the super-fast, sleek Late Models at the ¼ mile paved oval. Moran Chevrolet has been involved with the division for several years, backing Dick Barker's #25. O & W, Inc. is in its second season of sponsorship at "The Rock". The new kid on the block will serve as the sponsor for Flat Rock's ultra-competitive Street Stocks, to be known as the Greater Detroit Auto Auction Street Stocks. Michael Haddon of the auctions, with locations in Port Huron and the Romulus business, just 5 miles north of the track, became involved with Flat Rock last season as the Winner's Circle sponsor.
