Toledo Speedway

Flat Rock, Michigan—June 15, 2013 (Delayed):  Rain began to fall at Flat Rock Speedway
Saturday night, causing a nearly 1 hour delay in the program.  But a large crowd sat through the elements, and more fans came late as the Parts Galore School Bus Figure 8 races were not to be stopped! 

The night featured perhaps one of the most entertaining and destructive nights of fun.  And, for the very first time, the bus fans were treated to a night of the ARCA Moran Chevrolet Late Models for a 50 lap event.  The ARCA Parts Galore Figure 8 class also thrilled the crowd.

Despite a nearly 1 hour delay due to rain, a large and enthusiastic crowd ventured out to Flat Rock Speedway Saturday for the Parts Galore School Bus Figure 8 races.  Dennis Strickland captured the 50 lap ARCA Moran Chevrolet Late Model feature, while Dennis Whisman took top honors in the Parts Galore Figure 8 race.

An incredibly wild and destructive night had the crowd roaring as Jeff King and the field bounced off of abandoned boats and trailers to win the Boat Figure 8 race.  After the flag, Jeff slammed his machine over the top of a boat and blasted it into pieces, again to thunderous applause and cheers.  A total of 3 buses went over on their sides in perhaps the wildest School Bus Figure 8 race in memory at "The Rock".  Ray Gaddis survived to claim the checkered flag.

Additional details will follow Monday.

(TOLEDO, Ohio - June 14, 2013) - A huge crowd witnessed a great night of open wheel racing at the 2013 version of the All American Coach/Super Fitness/Hemelgarn Racing Fastest Short Track Show in the World Friday night at Toledo Speedway.  Hometown star Jimmy McCune flew to victory in the non-stop 40 lap MSA Super Modified feature, while Tampa, Florida native Troy DeCaire etched his name in the record books, grabbing the win in the 30 lap Auto Value/Bumper to Bumper Super Sprint (AVBBSS) main event.

Tom McGuire and his family from All American Coach and Super Fitness boss Ron Hemelgarn presented the 5 foot trophies to the winners in the Sun Drop Victory Circle.

A total of 24 Sprints and 18 Super Modifieds made the trip to Toledo for this one-of-a-kind event, created by Toledo management 13 years ago.  Zach Gibson tagged the turn 1 wall in practice when his Super Mod lost a right rear wheel, ending his night.  Earlier in Sprint car practice, 2012 race winner Jason Cox had an axle snap, sending his machine spinning into the turn 3 wall.  Both drivers took hard hits but were ok.

...

(TOLEDO, Ohio - June 11, 2013) - It all began in 2001--created by Toledo track management, the event has become one of the top open-wheel pavement races in the country.  And for the 2013 version of the All American Coach/Hemelgarn Racing/Super Fitness “Fastest Short Track Show in the World” at Toledo Speedway this Friday night, the Super Modified winner of that first race, “Liquid” Lou Cicconi of Aston, PA has filed his entry for this one-of-kind event.

Four- time SLM champion (2004, 2008, 2009, 2011) Eric Lee’s second win of the season is a milestone for him. With the two wins this season it gives him 20 wins, tying him with his father Steve and Dick Barker for ninth on the Career Flat Rock Late Model win list. Rick Knowles with 22 wins is the next one on the list for Eric to pass. “What a great way to start out the season with 2 wins. We had a good run tonight the car was turning good and stayed consistent the entire race hopefully we can keep this momentum going.  I have to thank my crew and sponsors: Action Drywall, Lee Motorsports, Arrow Uniform, D&E Landscaping and Powertran Transformers.”

(TOLEDO, Ohio - June 3, 2013) - The Friday, May 31 cancellation of Toledo Speedway’s race card has brought about the rescheduling of several promotions and events.  To date, they are as follows:

...

(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - June 1, 2013) - Well, the forecast for rain was at 80%, pretty much a sure bet for a Saturday washout.  With no rain falling, the decision was made to go ahead with the Glass Unlimited Autograph Night at Flat Rock Speedway.  Albeit a few sprinkles, the show was completed  and Eric Lee, Tadek Stadniczuk, Dennis Whisman and David Price captured the feature wins.  Walter Krause of Glass Unlimited presented the trophies in the Sun Drop Winner’s Circle.  A fabulous rendition of both the Canadian and National Anthems by the Barbershop Quartet “The Party” kicked off the Saturday night action.

...

(TOLEDO, Ohio - May 31, 2013) - It’s the race that’s described by race fans as a “can’t miss race, you have to see it in person” and on and on.  It’s the All American Coach/Hemelgarn Racing/Super Fitness “Fastest Short Track Show in the World” at Toledo Speedway, starring the Adkins Glass MSA Winged Super Modifieds and the winged Auto Value/Bumper to Bumper Super Sprints (AVBBSS)!  Created by Toledo track management, the event has become one of the top open-wheel pavement races in the country.  The date is Friday, June 14.

...

My family and I want to thank everyone for all the thoughts and prayers for my family after the passing of my father on May 5th, it was and is appreciated. Because of this, my article has some older tidbits. I love hearing news from the teams, my email is at the end of the article.

April 28, Flat Rock

Opening night and a great field of Super Late Models (21) and Street Stocks (26). The Figure 8’s were showing off their new body style, looking like USA Modifieds with their wings on top, it was a short field, only 9, but not everyone was ready for opening night.

...

(TOLEDO, Ohio - May 28, 2013) - Friday, May 31 Toledo Speedway will join forces with PNC Bank to be a “Champion for Childhood Literacy”.  Fans that donate a new book at the track when arriving for this Friday’s racing show will receive a $5 discount off the adult admission price.

Re:  Hoosier Sportsman tire

May 28, 2013

Effective immediately, the Hoosier Sportsman tire will be legal for competition for the remainder of the 2013 season.  No mixing of compounds will be permitted (all 4 tires must be of same compound—4 Hoosier Sportsman 26.5, 27.5 sizes or 4-Hoosier 880’s-26.5, 27.5 sizes).

The original plan was to stop allowing the Sportsman tires for competition June 1, but we will now permit them for the 4 classes listed above for the remainder of the 2013 season.

There is a limited supply of Hoosier Sportsman tires still available at the tracks. 

All tires must be purchased from ARCA and will be checked through the scanner system.
