A huge thank you to everyone who came out yesterday to support us! We're so lucky to be surrounded by so many great people.
On a side note...I'd post what we gave away for the 50/50, but I heard its more than Uncle Sam would approve of.

I like to run other places. I see it as a opportunity to fill in the schedule with Ransomville and holland races, without the added pressure.

I had just seen Jody, she was such a strong person that I thought she was doing better. She has spent all summer getting their new home ready(their home burnt down in the fall).
Jody and Bucky are a true love story. In fact, they told me the story of their first meeting less than a month ago.
Jody will be missed.

Racing Discussion / Re: Food Trucks
« on: 21 Sep, 2014 01:10 »They had a couple in the pits yesterday at Lancaster. Had a Bang Bang Shrimp Po Boy at the one truck. Might have been the best thing that I have EVER eaten at a racetrack. And that covers a lot of ground. Food is one of my favorite subjects.....lol
....Support these guys, I'd like to see them back again. You won't be disappointed.
I'm a chef for a living, and I told everyone they had to get that po boy. I agree. Best sandwich of my life.
But don't miss out on the roaming buffalo burger. Voted best burger in WNY two years running. Best burger of my life!

Racing Discussion / Re: Holland Chargers at U.S. Open
« on: 17 Sep, 2014 14:44 »Alex Morris has 4 Ransomville Street Stock titles: 1998, 2001, 2003 and 2012; he also won the 2003 Humberstone Street Stock title. Ryan Susice was the 2007 Ransomville Street Stock champion.
It looks like that it will be a fun field of drivers anyway. The dirt drivers having never raced at Lancaster adds a different flavor to the race. It reminded me of when the Lancaster drivers were "out of their element" in the early '90s when they had their own special race or two at Ransomville with guys like Wayne Bukowski #66, George Troester #8 and former racing photographer Jim Wolford.
Woohoo! I know something Mark doesn't. He's a seven time champ, with four at Big R, one at humberstone, and two at Canadaigua
Of the guys coming, only Alex Morris and John Richael have been on asphalt in a street stock, and both were at holland. Brandon Sherwood has run a four cylinder.

Racing Discussion / Re: Holland Chargers at US open
« on: 17 Sep, 2014 08:35 »Not sure how they'll fair, but almost every heavy hitter from Ransomville is coming.
Tenative list includes:
99-Alex Morris-2012/7 time champ
12-Brian Lonneville-2014 champ
87-Brandon Sherwood-multiple feature winner
5c-Cliff Brucker
25k-Ken Camidge
20h-John Richeal
14p-Pat Dell-2013 champ
Four or so more planned to come, but didn't survive KOH, including my #54. I was really looking forward to bringing that throw back 1986 paint scheme to Lancaster...
My favorite class next to the TQ's, this is going to be an excellent race especially if we can get a blend of Holland/Ransomville/Canandaigua cars.
The competition/excitement level would jump up if just Morris, Camidge and Sherwood came. But add in Lonneville and Dell...the 06 may just finish 3rd!
I wonder if 131 Bleich, 05 Reid, 111 Senek, 16 Wendt, 19 Short or the 10 Israel will be able to make it; all excellent, quick cars.
Anyone know if 1 Miszczak, 6 Loffredo, 8 Hamman, 13 Northem, 17 Carnes, 21 Wilson, 36 Maltby will be running?
The 20 and 21 will be there. It's been two months since those cars raced!
Bleich was going to, but had too much damage. Senek was not interested at all. Wendt sold his car. Shortie is out of town. Oh...and isreal isn't coming.
Hamman is, lofredo told me maybe. Maltby is coming.
Based on my counts, the field should be in the mid twenties
I still don't have enough tires to give to all the ransomville guys that want to come. We've given away over 30 tires so far.
