MSCCS Opener Next For Scott Creel

Franklinton, Louisiana (03/02/10) – Scott Creel will travel to the deep south this weekend as he enters his #31 Creel Brothers/Black Warrior Auctions/Mastersbilt/Pro Power Racing Engine Super Late Model in the 2010 Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series (MSCCS) season opener.

Scott was last in action in late January in the Super Bowl of Racing at Golden Isles Raceway in Brunswick, Georgia. The action got underway on Thursday night, January 28^th with a $7,500 to win event. He qualified 21st fastest of the 34 entries on hand, which gave him the 6th starting position in the first heat race.  He advanced one spot to a 5th place finish, and with only the top four cars transferring to the feature, he was forced to a b-main event. In the b-main, he would earn a transfer spot to start 21st in the feature. After not making up much ground during the early stages of the feature, he would retire to save his equipment and would be credited with a 23rd place finish.

Friday night, January 29^th would not be very kind to Voodoo Motorsports as Scott saw the rear-end break while running in a transfer spot in his b-main event, which brought his night to a disappointing early end.

On Saturday night, January 30^th the $12,000 to win finale was held. After winning his b-main event, Creel started 19th on the grid in the feature. He would ultimately retire from the event to a 22nd place finish.

Next on tap for Scott and Voodoo Motorsports will be the Frostbite 50 at South Mississippi Speedway in Gulfport, Mississippi.  The event will be sanctioned by the MSCCS Super Late Models and will pay $5,000 to the winner of the 50 lap event on Saturday, March 6^th.  For more information, please visit www.StateSeries.com and www.SouthMsSpeedway.com .

Shannon McIntosh Motorsports..February 2010‏

The News on Racecar Driver Shannon McIntosh February 2010   Hello everyone! I've changed the layout of my newsletter, and I hope you like it! First of all, Happy New Year! I finished off 2009 in December at the 1st Annual International Motorsports Industry Show in Indianapolis. During the show, I was fortunate to attend the Ahead of the Game Seminar with Ken Ungar and U/S Sports Advisors! This was an extremely valuable and informative experience about sports marketing and branding. At the USAC booth at IMIS More recently, I've been hard at work putting together a program for the 2010 season. I've got a deal on the table to drive for the best car owner, builder and team in USAC with an initial part-time schedule In the USAC National Midget series. If I am able to secure partnerships for this, I will be testing 3 times at Anderson Speedway and O'Reilly Raceway Park in Indianapolis. I will race twice on March 24-25 at Hickory Motor Speedway near Charlotte, North Carolina and compete in the annual "Night Before the 500" at O'Reilly Raceway Park. Our budget is $25,000.   USAC National Midgets At the end of December, I did a photoshoot with CKB Photography. It was a blast and I must give a special thanks to Christina Brown of CKB Photography for making it possible! The photos turned out great! CKB Photography I have just returned from an extremely busy, eventful trip to Florida. I spent a day in St. Petersburg where I was able to see where the IndyCar series races the annual Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. This was a very cool experience as the following day was my introduction to road racing. I was given the opportunity to attend the Skip Barber 2-day advanced racing school at Sebring International Raceway. 2-Day Advanced Racing school at Sebring with Skip Barber Having been primarily only exposed to oval racing, I wasn't sure how steep my learning curve would be on a road course. After the first day at Sebring, I realized there were MANY more elements that were different and new than I expected. Some of the new crafts I needed to practice were shifting and "threshold" or as I would say, extreme braking. I spent the eve of the first night studying the 17 TURN racetrack, and watching in car camera videos from Sebring. I also spent time asking questions and getting pointers from 2009 Skip Barber regional series champion, Nick Andries. After getting a general feel of the new type of racecar and a grasp of the basics on the first day, I was ready to get back on track for day two. My improvements were significant and I was able to practice the elements that needed improvement on my end. This experience couldn't have been more lucrative. I even obtained my first experience of driving in the rain! A special thanks to former IndyCar owner Dale Pelfrey who gave me this awesome opportunity. Our next step is to decide where our first race in the Skip Barber Regional series will be.   From Sebring, I went straight to Daytona for the Women in the Winners Circle Event where the unveiling of the women in motorsports travelling exhibit was unveiled. I also spent some time at Daytona International Speedway on Thursday for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Duels and flew home on Thursday evening. A special thanks to Linda Conti, Ted from Mechanix Wear, Dale Pelfrey and Lyn St. James. At Daytona International Speeway Feb. 11 Some exciting news, is that I've been hired by Ken Ungar and Krissi Price with U/S Sports Advisors in Indianapolis and will be moving to Indy this weekend. I've been searching for a job that would allow me to reside in the Racing Capital of the World and am very excited to be working for a great team in a field that I know and love very much...Sports Marketing/Branding. I'm looking forward to my venture to Indy and will continue to seek marketing partners for my 2010 season. Anything and everything helps and if you would like to be a part of my program, I'd love to hear from you!

East Bay Tri-Fecta Up Next For Eric Cooley

Fulton, MS (02/16/10) – After watching Old Man Winter put a damper on the past two events that Eric Cooley has attempted to enter, he is eager to ride his #33c Cooley Transport/Victory Circle M1 Chassis By Moyer Crate Late Model into battle this weekend, February 18th-20th at East Bay Raceway in Tampa, Florida for a NeSmith Late Model Series triple header.

Twice over the past few weeks, Cooley has planned to travel to Whynot Motorsports Park in Meridian, Mississippi for the 2nd Annual Winter Bash, but on both occasions inclement weather forced the cancellation of the event.

Cooley will look to not only outrun Old Man Winter this weekend, but also his fellow competitors as the 2009 NeSmith National Champion invades East Bay Raceway Park in Tampa, Florida for three events.  After an open practice session on Wednesday night, the stakes will increase on Thursday night with a $2,500 to win, 40 lap event.  On Friday night the NeSmith tour will come with another $2,500 to win, 40 lap event before wrapping up the triple header on Saturday with a $3,000 to win, 50 lap event.  For more information on the events, please visit www.NeSmithRacing.com and www.EastBayRacewayPark.com .

Ross Camponovo Has Strong Winternationals Run; Moulton Up Next

Clarksdale, Mississippi (02/15/10) – “The Big Boss” Ross Camponovo is coming off a brief venture to Speedweeks at Volusia Speedway Park (Barberville, Florida) and East Bay Raceway Park (Tampa, Florida), where he opened a lot of eyes around the sport.

Ross Camponovo entered a Super Late Model event at Volusia Speedway Park for the first time ever on Monday night, February 8^th in the $7,000 to win opener for the UMP DIRTCar Series.  With 67 of the nation’s top Super Late Models in action Ross qualified 3rd fastest in his group.  An inversion of four was drawn for heat race action, which put him starting outside front row.  Ross would fight off early advances from Boom Briggs and Eric Jacobsen before driving away from the field en route to the heat race win, which earned him the 6th starting position for the main event around the big 1/2 mile. Ross would battle an ill-handling race car in the feature and would ultimately retire to a 24th place finish on the 22nd lap. Despite not having the feature performance that the team had hoped for, everyone at RC Motorsports was quite excited with their opening night performance at Volusia.

Tuesday’s program (February 9^th) at Volusia was nixed by Mother Nature.  Ross had originally planned to compete for the rest of the week at Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Florida in the 39th UMP DIRTCar Nationals, but family business obligations forced him to head back to Mississippi on Wednesday.

The week before the Volusia events the team traveled to East Bay Raceway in Tampa, Florida for the DART Winternationals. They entered their first event on Wednesday night, February 3^rd with a $5,000 to win, 30 lap event.  Forty-nine Super Late Models entered the event, and the night got off to a good start for Ross, who timed in 11th fastest in his group to earn the sixth starting spot in his heat. However, he would receive damage in his heat race, which brought his night to a disappointing early end.

On Thursday night, February 4^th, RC Motorsports entered the season opener for the Lucas Oil Super Late Model Series at East Bay Raceway Park as 57 entries signed in for the $10,000 to win event. Ross turned in a strong qualifying effort for the second straight night, and would finish 5th in his heat race and 5th in his b-main, which left him short of qualifying for the feature. He battled at the front of the pack in the Strawberry Dash, but with only the winner transferring to the main event, his night came to an early end. Despite not making the feature, it was still a strong night for Camponovo.

The next event that is tentatively on tap for R.C. Motorsports is the 1^st Annual Melt Down at Moulton Speedway in Moulton, Alabama on Saturday, February 20^th.  The special event will be highlighted by a $2,000 to win/$150 to start, 35 lap event.  For more information, please visit www.MoultonRaceway.com .

Ross and RC Motorsports would like to thank all of their sponsors including Camponovo Farms, Young Farms, Marion Towing, Edwards Farm & Flying Service, RPM Racing Engines, Elam Race Cars, GRT Race Cars, Rocket Chassis, MSRMafia.com, and Xtreme Race Graphics.

Scott Hensley Rockets Past Winternational's Foes

Olive Branch, Mississippi (02/15/10) – Scott “The Rocket” Hensley from Olive Branch, Mississippi used four wins to lift off from his fellow competitors en route to claiming the INEX Winternationals Championship last week, February 9th-13th, at Orlando Speedworld in Orlando, Florida.

The INEX Winternationals were highlighted by five big days of racing action for the INEX Legend Cars.  After losing Tuesday's opener to Mother Nature, Scott took part in a double header for the Legends Car division on Wednesday at Orlando Speedworld.  During the first program Hensley qualified 4th fastest for the feature lineup.  Midway through the event, he was battling for the second spot, when a competitor cut down on the track to block him, causing Scott to check up, which resulted in the competitor behind Hensley knocking him up the track. After losing several spots, Hensley would rebound to a 5th place finish at the checkered flag.

For the second feature, Scott qualified fastest overall, which earned him the pole starting position.  Hensley would swap the lead with the second place runner several times during the course of the event before taking sole possession of the lead late in the race en route to his first win in the Pro Legend Car division!

Scott put on a dominating performance on Thursday at the Orlando Speedworld in the INEX Winternationals. After qualifying on the pole for the feature event in Pro Legends Car division, Hensley took the lead at the drop of the green flag and drove away from the field en route to his second win in as many days.

Mother Nature intervened for the second time during the series on Friday, resulting in double features on Saturday.   Hensley would put on a driving clinic during Saturday's double header finale at Orlando Speedworld as he set fast time in both events to earn the pole position for each feature. He went on to win both features and to claim the INEX Winternationals Championship in his first attempt at the Pro Legend Car Division!

Scott’s is unsure when his next event will be, so please check out his website at www.ScottTheRocket.com frequently for the latest team news!

Muscle Shoals, Alabama (02/08/10) – After a few weeks away from the track, Anthony Burroughs is set to take his #121 ALT Transportation/Mastersbilt By Stuckey Super Late Model back into action this weekend in the 1^st Annual Ice Breaker.

Anthony opened his 2010 campaign a few weeks ago  on Saturday, February 8^th with the 10th Annual Winter Classic at Columbus Speedway in Columbus, Mississippi. The $3,000 to win, 40 lap event drew a field of 32 Super Late Models. After going out late in the qualifying order, Burroughs registered the 7th fastest lap to lock into the 7th starting position for the main event.  As the feature went green Burroughs began working his way to the front of the pack. By lap 15 he was up to the third position as he began to challenge front runners, Dane Dacus and Mathew Turner, for the lead.  Two laps later Burroughs would move past both front runners to take the lead. However, before a lap could be complete, the caution flag waived.  Reverting to the previously completed lap, Burroughs was forced back to the second spot. Anthony would fall back as far as third during the last half of the race before rebounding to a solid second place finish behind Dacus.

This Saturday, February 13^th, Burroughs will travel to Tennessee National Raceway in Hohenwald, Tennessee for the 1^st Annual Ice Breaker, which has a posted purse of $3,000 to win and $300 to start for the 40 lap event.  For more information on the event, please visit www.RaceTn.com .

Bobby Labonte Racing Ready to Start Lucas Oil Series Championship Run
 

 Pearson Jr. and Neat Warmed Up with Solid Finishes at Golden Isles

 

Archdale, N.C. (February 1, 2010) - The revamped Bobby Labonte Racing team is warmed up and looking for their first win of 2010 as it rolls into Tampa, Fla., this week for the first official events of the 2010 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series season.  Earl Pearson Jr. and Brad Neat will race four nights of the East Bay Raceway's DART Winternationals, Feb. 3 to 6, culminating with a $12,000-to-win event on Saturday.

Pearson Jr., driver of the No. 44 Lucas Oil Dodge, and Neat, driver of the No. 41 Red Buck Filtered Cigars Chevrolet and new addition to the BLR team, are coming off strong performances at last week's Super Bowl of Racing at Golden Isles Speedway in Brunswick, Ga.  In three nights of competition, Pearson Jr. earned three top-10 finishes, and Neat earned two top-five finishes and one start from the pole.
 
The team looks forward to this week's action at the "Clay by the Bay," known for record-setting races and electrifying finishes, and where Pearson Jr. is a former winner. 
 
Team Manager Jason Fitzgerald Comments on Opening Week and the events upcoming at East Bay Raceway:
 
"Well, we just came off three nights of racing in Georgia and I think we're pretty happy so far.  Both cars were fast last week at Golden Isles, and that's what you're hoping for when unloading off the hauler for a new season.  Earl and Brad both had shots to win and both ended up with some top-five and top-10 finishes.  Brad has earned us our first pole for the team and for Red Buck this season.  That was a nice accomplishment for Brad and his guys to open the season.  We need to build from that this week at East Bay.
 
"This will be our second outing of the season as an expanded team.  We are still coming together and learning to mesh.  Saying that, we proved last week our equipment is good, so it will all come together.  That was our first weekend of a long season.  Any time you expand and bring additional guys to a team there will be learning process for everyone. It will just take some time for everyone to create that winning chemistry.
 
"Yeah, we're looking forward to East Bay and kicking off the Lucas Oil Series.  It is an extremely racy facility.  There is always good racing no matter what and the series puts on a good show for the fans.  Earl has had good luck there every year and Brad has had decent finishes, too. 
 
"We need to start strong in the Series with both teams.  The goal is to bring back the championship trophy to Bobby Labonte Racing.  That starts this week.  We want to win every series race, but know that's not probable.  If we can't win, we want to finish and collect top-five and top-10 finishes. I know both Earl and Brad are ready to do just that."

Billy Moyer Jr. Scores Top Three Finish in $10k Wild West Final

Batesville, Arkansas (01/17/10) – Billy Moyer Jr. wrapped up the ultra-busy 4^th Annual Wild West Shootout on Sunday night with a great third place finish in the $10,000 to win finale in his #21jr Victory Circle M1 Chassis by Moyer/Clements Racing Engine Super Late Model.

Sunday night, January 17^th marked the finale for the Wild West Shootout as the $10,000 to win, Bill Cheesebourg Memorial was held at USA Raceway in Tuscon, Arizona. Forty-two Super Late Models entered the event, and Billy finished in the fourth position in his heat race after starting fourth. He would fall short of earning enough passing points to lock into the feature and was relegated to the b-main event. Moyer Jr. would race his way out of the b-main to the a-main via a third place finish, which earned him the 22nd starting spot on the grid for the 40 lap feature. The main event would get off to a rough start for Moyer Jr. as he was involved in a lap one melee that included ten cars. Luckily he received minimal damage and was able to restart the event. As the event went back green, he began to methodically work his way toward the front of the field. By lap 15 he had cracked the top ten as he rode in the 9th position. Over the final half of the race he would ultimately march his way to a great third place finish behind event winner, Jimmy Mars, and Jeremy Payne!

Sunday night’s finish was a redemption for bad luck that struck on Friday night when Moyer was contesting Terry Phillips for the lead on lap 24 of the 30 lap event only to have his right rear tire go flat, relegating him to a disappointing 14^th place finish.

“The car was awesome on Friday night, and I really thought that I might win that one.  Then the tire went down, and it was really a let down for our team.  However, with the third place run on Sunday night against this field of cars, I’m really proud with the progression that we made during the week out here in Arizona, and I’m really excited about the 2010 season!” commented Moyer Jr.

Billy’s results for the week are summarized below:

Round #1: January 9^th: USA Raceway (Tuscon, AZ) - $3,000 To Win - DNS

Round #2: January 10^th: USA Raceway (Tuscon, AZ) - $5,000 To Win – 14^th

Round #4: January 15^th: USA Raceway (Tuscon, AZ) - $3,000 To Win – 19^th  

Round #5: January 16^th: USA Raceway (Tuscon, AZ) - $3,000 To Win – 14^th

Round #6: January 17^th: USA Raceway (Tuscon, AZ) - $10,000 To Win – 3^rd

This Saturday, January 23^rd, Billy will attend the O’Reilly MSRA banquet in Little Rock, Arkansas, where he will be crowned the 2009 Champion.  He will receive over $5,000 in cash plus contingencies.  For more information on the MSRA tour, please visit www.MSRADirt.com .

Jack Sullivan Begins New Era in GRT House Car

Greenbriar, Arkansas (01/08/10) – Veteran racer, Jack Sullivan, has been well traveled and experienced over the first ten years of his racing career, but as the Greenbriar, Arkansas driver enters his eleventh year of competition, he will be embarking on a completely new era as the pilot of the Team GRT House Car.

In the racing world deals come about in a wide variety of circumstances, but for Sullivan the events that led to him being named the top GRT chauffer were a bit ironic. “Joe (Garrison) and I had a running joke for a while that I should drive the house car, and then one day he called me and said let’s make this happen. I didn’t know at first if he was still joking or not, but I realized pretty quick that this was the real deal and that I needed to take advantage of it,” notes Sullivan. “I’ve been indirectly involved with the GRT program for several years now, and I’ve driven and tested the house car on a few occasions, but to actually be the true ‘house car driver’ is a bit surreal”.

A variety of driver’s have driven the GRT House Car over the past few years with Wendell Wallace and Clint Smith most recently behind the wheel. Sullivan feels that for Joe it might be an easier working relationship than what he has had with some veteran drivers, and he comments “Sometimes with the veteran drivers they are set in their ways and not always open to new ideas or setups because they know from their experience what does and doesn’t work for them. For me, I realize that I still have a lot to learn, and I’m usually pretty receptive to trying new things and suggestions from people, who have as much experience and knowledge as Joe.”

With the #1 Triple A Diesel/Bryant Motorsports/GRT team en route to Arizona for their first events together this weekend during the USA Raceway (Tuscon, Arizona) Wild West Shootout, the question was posed to Sullivan on how prepared he felt that the team was for the start of the season, and his response was what you would expect from a new team with a lot of unknowns.

“Our team is probably batting about 70% right now. We still don’t have the trailer completely outfitted, and we really only have one car built right now. I’ve got some new crew members working with me this year, and we’ve all just got to get used to working together. More than anything we just need some track time to learn what does and doesn’t work for us, and that’s the beauty of this Arizona deal because you get to race six times in about a week, and get to try a lot of different things under consistent track conditions.”

While he did compete in some Super Late Model events in 2009, Jack spent much of the season behind the wheel of his Open Wheel Modified competing with the USMTS Open Wheel Modified tour. Sullivan feels that this is something that he will have to work out of his system early this season in order to be successful in the Super Late Model. He comments “Super Late Models and Open Wheel Modifieds are two such totally different driving styles that getting comfortable in one can result in you really struggling in the other. That’s the main reason that I probably won’t compete in any Open Wheel Modified shows this year, so that I can put all of my focus into honing my skills and driving technique in the Super Late Model.”

Sullivan also recognizes that the tire game will be a big part of the learning curve for the 2010 season. Over the past few years and for much of his career, he has been accustomed to running primarily events on hard compound tires. However, this year he will be entering a lot of events with open tire rules, and he feels that this will be his biggest challenge. “It’s such a different game, when you have unlimited compounds to choose from. You really have to be able to read the track, and know what to use when. I have no doubt that we can get a firm grip on the tire game, but once again, it’s just going to take track time and experience.”

As far as the team’s plans for the year, they really aren’t committing to be at any certain place. Sullivan recognizes that you have to crawl before you can walk, and he wants to take time to do things right with the new team.

“After Arizona, we’ll just be hitting and missing some various shows to start the year. We really need to get the rest of our equipment ready to go. I won’t say that we 100% won’t be going to Florida for any of the Speedweek shows in February, but right now it just doesn’t make sense for us to go down there. Those events are so tough on equipment and burn up so many resources that at this point, I would just rather not go and instead use that time to prepare for the season. We need to hone our skills in our own backyard before we try to conquer the world. I hope to fully get this program to where we want it to be within the next year or so and then evaluate running a tour. That’s definitely our ultimate goal!”

As far as goals for the first season, Jack is being realistic, while at the same time setting as high expectations as possible for himself and the team. “Early in the season the learning curve is no doubt going to be pretty steep for us, but if by the second half of the season we can unload anywhere and be confident about the team and the setup, I will consider the season to be a success. We are focused on making shows and running consistently in the top ten. If we do this, then the wins will come.”

Despite facing all of the hardships and challenges that come with starting a new team, Jack Sullivan is extremely confident and excited about the upcoming season. “We have such an awesome combination here between many of my pre-existing sponsors and the new ones that have come on board. I’m excited and honored to have Bryant Motorsports fully supporting me for another season, and to welcome Triple A Diesel on board as a title sponsor is really something special. Joe Garrison and everyone at GRT Race Cars have stepped up to offer me the opportunity of a lifetime, and I fully intend to use my performances on the track to repay them ten-fold.”

Jack Sullivan would like to thank all of his sponsors including Triple A Diesel, Bryant Motorsports, GRT Race Cars, Central Arkansas Pest Services, Rinehart Trucking, Merrill Bonding Co., Vic Hill Racing Engines, JFR Graphics, Xtreme Suspension Technology, AFCO Radiators, Allstar Performance, ATL Fuel Cells, Brinn Transmissions, BSB Manufacturing, ButlerBuilt Safety Equipment, CV Products, Delph Communications, Frankland Rear Ends, Goodridge Hose & Fittings, GRT Fab, Hoosier Racing Tire, Hypercoils, Joe's Racing Products, K-B Carburetors, Out-Pace Racing Products, Penske Shocks, Performance Bodies, Performance Powder Coating, Peterson Fluid Systems, QuarterMaster, QuickCar, R2C Air Filters, Sweet Mfg., MSRMafia.com, Trick Race Parts, Turbo Start Batteries, Wiles Driveshafts, and Wilwood Engineering.
