NEW SENOIA RACEWAY, “WHATS UP”, COME ON MAKE MY DAY!

Tony and Tim Moses have been putting together some great shows at New Senoia Raceway, but the fans have spoken that they would like to see more local features with maybe some extra money on the line.

Yes we know the Outlaw Sprint Cars will be back in August and we can deal with that, but gone are the touring Crate car series at least for the rest of 2011.

Back will be some special events for fans and families and children, so you can look forward to some exciting events.
How about today’s 1st Spectator Drag race around 3/8th mile Senoia Raceway with some street legal cars, all drivers who win advance to the final round and will be crowned the 2011 Spectator Driver and Champion for the 2011 racing season.
This is going to be good, I mean real good, and the fans will really have a great time watching each car advance. So be ready to pick your driver and car, and see if he can make it through the 8 tries around.
Also coming up is the famous “Demolition Derby” last season it was front wheel drive vehicles this season, let’s get a little crazy and have a minivan demolition derby, that’s right mini vans.
This has always been a fan favorite event, and only New Senoia Raceway knows how to handle events of this magnitude.
Later I am sure we will see the famous “Watermelon eating contest” that makes everyone hungry and happy.
This is also the night of the famous Senoia Raceway “Fireworks Show”.
All in all racing at New Senoia Raceway, are going to be more exciting and a lot more demanding on the drivers, because drivers who race at Senoia are not 2nd place drivers they are all fighting for the win every race night. 2nd place is nice but not what they come after, just ask #41 Scott Sherrer, who blazed the way in the Hobby feature last season, it is just this season he is up against some great drivers.


Like #07 Clifton “Hog Head” Moran, then you have #01 of young Blant Duke, plus #33 of “Rambling” Rusty Johnson. Also when he is racing is none other than #K1 of Kip Stanfill, who has been out for a while do to being run into with of all people #87 Pappy Powell.
The list of drivers goes on and on, because Senoia Raceway is known for setting history and making drivers great.


And if the fans don’t like the Hobby feature, wait we have the famous B-Cadet feature which features some of the most outstanding drivers in the South. Drivers like #B7 Billy Bright Sr. known as “The Legend”, his son, Billy Bright Jr. in the #B7Jr car, always a huge threat in any race. Then you have the current point’s leader, #3 of Jeff Carter who has had the car to beat so far this young year.
But B-Cadet racing has become more intense as extra drivers have been really showing that they also can be winners. Rumor has it, in a few weeks the sometime driver of the Pure Mini #4 car which belongs to Dusty Jones will be racing in the B-Cadet feature and he is none other than Erik Hogsed, a well-liked driver who can drive with the best of the drivers. So fans please be ready for some exciting B-Cadet features and these races will never let you down in any way.

When the Crate cars appear on the track for their feature you never know who can and will win this exciting race, drivers like #T7jr of Tim Bright is itching for a win, or even a 2nd place finish. Then you have #M96 of young Marty Lunsford, who is young but has the talent to run with some of the best drivers in this feature.
Drivers like #91 of Todd Darda, can leave their mark on the track, Darda has been a winner of many a Crate feature. But that does mean he cannot be beaten, just let him slip up and who knows you may see Tim Bright or Marty Lunsford taking the win.

After the Crate feature, let’s get ready for the hardest working drivers at the track, those Pure Mini drivers, who work all week, just to get their 4 cylinder cars ready to race.

Drivers like #00 of Matt Black from Douglasville, Georgia, also racing are #0 of Dorough Bright known as “The Original”, plus a driver that never fix’s his car same dents as always, #13 of Gary Parker. We know that #4 Dusty Jones has been disqualified from racing for 1 more week, but his car will be driven this Saturday night by Erik Hogsed, and believe me when I tell you if he wins it is because his car is legal all the way. They changed all the wrong parts and installed all the right parts, so if the #4 wins it is because it is the driver and the car. One driver that was involved in a wreck on the back stretch was #54 Norman Chambers. I have no idea if his car will be ready after last weekend’s wreck.

Then after you have raided the concession stand for some great food and drinks you can get ready to watch some of the greatest Limited Late Model Drivers in Georgia.
Drivers like, #9 Shane Fulcher, plus a winner from 2 weeks back #73 “Racing” Jason Williams, and we might see #21 of Little Joe Armistead Jr. who we have been missing. Don’t worry #99 Rucker Orr will return he is always a driver that fans either love or hate, he is more or less the bad boy in racing.
One thing about the Late Models is you never know who is going to win, all 25 laps are fast and furious and when the dust settles, and Chad Harrington has thrown the “Double Checkered” Flags you know you have seen a race and seen some true winners on this fast track.

My racing partner, my wife, has departed into the skies in Heaven and I miss her reading my blogs and proof reading them for me for all my mistakes, she was my prayer warrior, and believed in me in everything I did, I miss her so much, more and more I go on because that is what she would have wanted but there are times I want to just quit.
I am asking for your help and prayers, please if you can purchase a DVD because that money is set back to help pay off some of the funeral expenses and there is plenty that needs to be paid off, please help me in any way you can. Please I am asking you as a friend and a writer who loves Dirt Track racing.


May GOD bless you always, and may you WIN every race you drive in!

Many Thanks to everyone,
