Notes-
The final official race is in the books for 2012-2013 just leaving the annual banquet race.  Last years banquet winner Shane Hiester along with his brother Sheldon will be preparing the cars for action this year on the tub track.  Bill Brenner celebrates 50 years of slot car racing soon and earned a hard fought 2nd in the feature showing the vets still can give these little cars a good run.  Bill has raced at many tracks over the years including my track in Trooper PA back in the 70’s.  Congrats to the Modified Points Champion Sheldon Hiester winner of 5 features and 44 segments this season.  I will put together a season wrap up over the summer so please look for that soon.  Tony Z gave the Jimmy Keppley #59 a good run coming home 11th.  Bob Amore had car trouble in warm-ups wrecking 2 cars and then had to jump in a Shane Hiester backup car at the last minute.
