Again, All necessary safety precautions are taking place. Masks Mandatory. We ran a twin bill of divisions racing on lanes 3-4-5-6 and were completed by 815p. Great job by everyone keeping the show moving and helping out. Everyone is very excited with the changes that we are making to the racing – Having FUN is the key.

Michael Mackaravitz

– Look out for Team Mac this season, Mike has built some rockets and He and James are serving notice they are ready to race. James won segments this week and his 1st victory lane is coming soon. Great to have Fitzie back with us. Mike was equally strong on the night. Word in the pits, Hiram Durant is looking for a new crew chief. Good to have Eric back with us, Eric was fast and challenging for the checker in Mods. If anyone needs parts – Billy D. has the speed shop fully stocked.

Door Slammer Notes:

Track Promoter Randy held a short driver’s meeting at the start of the night to review a potential Kutztown Boro Ordinance they may affect racing moving forward this season. Randy reviewed with the driver’s in attendance a plan to race on Tuesday and Wednesday Nights this season in smaller groups of 10 or less. Please stay tuned to the tracks Facebook Page, Website and Email for details this weekend in regard to racing next week. Randy will need to know in advance of all driver’s plans to race so we can provide a racing slot on 1 of the 2 scheduled race nights…More details to come on this. With 9 drivers in attendance for the new FUN themed racing Nascar Tyco 440×2 Bodied cars were on the card for racing. It was decided by the group to race 4 lanes – 3,4,5, and 6 and race for 15 laps. Action in the Hot Lanes was fiercely competitive. We saw some of the most competitive wheel to wheel racing in several years. We had 2 photo finishes that needed a camera replay to determine the winners. Almost every segment the race for the lead was 2 & 3 wide racing down to the finish.
