NASCAR promo for "Last Asphalt Short Track in Texas"
arob replied to NickHolt's topic in Texas Auto Racing
Got to give Ms. Knowles and her staff a tip of the hat and a standing O for all she has done and continues to do keeping asphalt racing alive in this area. The most telling comment in this piece is having to travel 12 hours to the next asphalt track. Hopefully HMP will continue to grow.- 12 replies

Hi Tech I heard some of the mid packers on back in Factory Stock are going to E-Mod. Gotta feeling that may become a trend until they jack with the E-Mod rules and make it more expensive.- 12 replies

Some pics of SAS taken on Monday, March 1, 2021
arob replied to NickHolt's topic in Texas Auto Racing
I would sneak out of work in Corpus at 5:30 instead of 6:00 so I could get to SAS in time. Did that for years. Saw a ton of great races and great drivers at that track.When I saw this post I didn't want to look but I'm glad I did as the memories of SAS came through my mind at warp speed.Sure glad I got to experience San Antonio Speedway !- 13 replies

Maybe the switches for ignition, fuel pump etc should be placed in the same location in all classes of cars so the safety crews know where they are and can turn off if possible. Thank God everyone involved is ok.

Well , there should be two drivers and their teams that will never get to race there again at the very least. -
Texas Short Track Driver of the Year Award announced
arob replied to PhilWhipple's topic in Announcements, Press Releases, and Results
Well , the best driver doesn't fit either category. But in terms of wins and top fives I would think Dalton Faulkner would be hard to beat.- 1 reply

I was there that night. I think the said moon was aimed at Tommy Grimes (?) walking along pit lane.

Now THAT is the definition of a crowd pleaser!

CC Speedway sold! t's fate is unknown at this point
arob replied to NickHolt's topic in Texas Auto Racing
Yes , tons of memories at CCS. The first race I attended was there in 1956. I remember the top class the cars had no fenders front and rear.I remember the flathead Fords were the hot engine. It was not unusual to start 30 cars in a feature in some classes over the years. And how can you forget how rowdy the Australian Pursuits were! I think I'll run by there and see if they will let me get a chunk of race track asphalt. Dale Jr. needs to send a crew down for Lost Speedways before it is too late. You know Lucky Number Programs would be a cool thing to bring back to the tracks of today. -

This mans contribution to racing in Texas during his involvement is second to none. Rest in peace and thank you for all the memories his Series provided. -
