This gallery is just some of the photos I didn’t use in the article about the season opener. 95A Speedway’s opener was a good afternoon of racing. Even though the car count was a bit down the drivers still gave a good account of themselves. Now the at Easter weekend is past us the count should increase as well as the crowd numbers. Even the classes with the fewest cars showed speed and the Pure Stock winner, while unchallenged had to over come challenges his car gave him. And Robert Miller, the Pro Stock winner had a good shake down

MRANN – BLUE WING FLAT VIDEO

Comments Off
Here is the MRANN video from Blue Wing Flat. Please excuse the error I made in the video title, my fault entirely. Once again I’m indebted to the efforts of Brittany Hutchings as she took care of the video duties. Many thanks to her and hopefully she can continue to help me. Can’t do both the video and stills at the same time. It was great weather and good fields so the promise of a great season is being realized. Good hard racing with only one rider needing much medical attention. Not to mention getting a helicopter ride to Reno.

As the racing season gets closer and closer the action is heating up across the country. And soon it will be locally as well.

First and foremost there will be no practice sessions this Saturday and Sunday at the Livfast Exit 28 Motocross Track. The crew is prepping for next week’s opening of the local motocross season. Further east Rattlesnake Raceway has
