We are skipping it. staying away from Slamboro, one conversation with Willie Reyns is all it took..haha

You can't go by what other drivers tell OR do at another track just cause he didn't like it maybe you would; he didn't do well at Sunset either a LOL.

We'll have both our cars for Octoberfest #36 and #9. Trevor Monahgan will drive #9.  We are also looking at both cars for Autumn Colors as well.

...
That's great news that you's are coming to Autumn Colors as some of the guys racing around here need their butt's kicked LOL, they don't go race anywhere else and need to have a wake-up to what racing is all aout "for real" ! 🙂

I see that Pete Vanderwyst is entered at Motordrome Speedway in Smithton PA this weekend!
Re Abel Castelein's mini stock. On Merrittville's board he inferred it made more sense to run his dirt car at Flammy than at the mini stock open at Ransomville which seems to have a high entry fee, little or no tech, little or no purse. Would be nice to see a few more dirt minis give Flammy a shot-perhaps Mitch Brown, Rob Overholt, Chase Hess, etc.
Just a thought for discussion: do these year end shows run too many divisions???. Would a high paying lm race instead make more sense or is everything so back gate driven that the local tracks do this as a matter of survival???? I often wonder why bring in limited late models if they don't run regularly at Flamboro for example? Usually the cars not familiar with the track cause half the cautions. Shouldn't they have have a big special instead at Sunset or Barrie, for example, where these cars run regularly? I guess I'd sooner see a complete program for all the junior classes on Saturday and then nothing but Oscaar and Late Model Sportsman on the Sunday but I think there would be fewer two day pit passes purchased as a result. (just answered my own question right-but it was rehtorical)

I was at Oktoberfest last year and they beat the hell out of Willie....Then when he retaliates the officials give him a hard time. We have run there in the past and the officials play a little favoritism to the home track guys/gals.

I have been myself and have witnessed the TC guys and how they treat..I was there 2? years ago and watched them try and wreck JR every lap. I'm not saying that they are all like that, because the mini guys were great, but let's face it..flammy has this reputation and I look forward to fall colours every year starting thanksgiving monday. I don't want to risk missing it.
