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.

(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.
