$10,000 Stock/Super Stock Race

Sorry to here that Robert.

With all due respect Gary, Dave has gone out of his way to make this race a success. I know its a far race for some, but the guaranteed purse makes it worth while.

To say it should have been on Monday or Tuesday before e-town or any other day is not fair to Dave and misses the point. I am so tired of racers complaining about payout and how they get treated.

Instead of asking why it wasn't on the day you wanted, maybe you should look at like, hey what a great race for the sportsman guy.

I did not mean any disrespect for Dave or anyone. I appreciate everything he does. Just thought there might of been a better turn out on monday. I think it is a great race. Gary

Thanks Ken for posting the info . Joe Sway and myself would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who participated in the first ever 10K to win Stk/SS race . Inspite of the car count Joe and I decided that no matter what we were paying the full purse. We have already discussed plans for it again for next year and we think it will be a little more accomodating for some people to attend.
We also want to thank some Sponsors who stepped up to the plate to make this happen :
VP Race Fuels
Roy Freeman from Hoosier tire
The Speed Shop at Atco
Last but not least a thank you to the people who worked behind the scenes to make this a very smooth running event , The entire Atco Raceway staff , Bill Holmes , Russ Wernes and of course the most important person in my life , my wife Gloria.
Again, we want to say thanks to the racers who came out and we look forward to a bigger and better event next year.

Dave Ley, You are one of the reasons that make Div. 1 a great place to race ! Well Done my friend

Really wish we could have come up for this one today. Unfortunately we did not get the bearings to put the motor together until 6pm today. However it is 90% done and almost ready to hang in the car for MIR!

A big thanks to Dave Ley and to Gloria and Bill & Joe for making Div. 1 the best. Although I never made it personally Bruce said it was a great day.This is another reason to make the drive from Nova Scotia. Congrats to Sal on his win.
