Race
summary for 3-1-08 (Season Final)
What a season end our weather could have not been better as we saw
temperatures of 30 to 35 degrees. Our hosts Dennis, Doris Moon &
family (Anchor Bay) prepared a excellent race set up with food,
refreshments, bleachers right out on the ice. We had another excellent
crowd along with the Biron Fire Department First Responders watching
over for everyone’s safety. This was just another thing that Dennis
Moon has done for this club. We all have to thank Dennis, Doris &
their family for donating approximately $250.00 To our club. I
believe this is the biggest donation we ever received again hats off to
them.
We had a total of 22 different racers through out all the classes and
we had some more first time winners through the day. In the pure stock
heat we saw Shane Treba win for the first time along with Adam Weiss
wining the pure stock feature. It was sure
nice to see the smile on these kid’s faces. In the men’s Mod stock we
saw Mr. Chevrolet Dust Clark win the heat and also the Mod Stock
Feature. These were Dusty’s first wins this year in a class that has
been dominated by Cody (The Kid) Knutson. The men’s open mod saw a
spectacular wreck at the start finish line last lap of our heat race.
Rapid Rick Cisewski and Big Roche Rossier got into each other coming
for the finish that sent big Roche Tipping into the snow banks. Luckily
no one was hurt but sure the 48-year-old Roche feels a little pain
today. We had an excellent points battle in the Men’s Open Mod between
Racin Jason and Jake the Snake Simkowski. Jason took the early lead in
the race and had about a straight away lead on the Snake before he got
out of the pack. Once clear of the Pack the Snake had about 6 laps to
run Jason down and passed him on the white flag lap to take the
championship in Open Mod. I must say that all the spectators got to see
some excellent races today and through out our series.
Just a reminder to all racers, pit crew members, sponsors, and everyone
else involved with our series that our awards and sponsor appreciation
party is on March 22
nd, 7PM, at Club 10 in Stevens Point.
Please try and call me with a number of folks that you expect to attend
from each of your crews please. Also we will probably start meeting
October of 08 for the 09 season. As we move forward we are thinking of
starting a 120 mini sled stock series to our program. Everyone watch
our web site for news, as big Rick will be adding pictures and updates
as he has time. Thank you to all sponsors and Racers for a very
successful year.
