I want to take the time to THANK everyone who helped make last a night a very SPECIAL Event!!!

First of all to GRS Heating & Air ( Glenn & Rebecca Switzer). This was there idea and their donation of the generator that got this ball rolling. Rebecca worked very hard selling all the tickets on the pit side. Folks I cant even begin to tell you or THANK them enough for all they have done to help support Clary's Speedway this year. They are true SUPPORTERS of this sport. Just a little inside info, there have been some nights they have left the track upset over some calls or had some bad breaks go wrong on their car. NEVER once have they threaten to take their ball and go somewhere else to play!!! They have returned and raced every Saturday night and anything I have asked of them, they have never said no. Glenn and Rebecca On behalf of everyone at Clary's THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH

Also Lake Gaston Motocross (Buddy Isles), Nash Brick and Johnnie Edmonson Thank YOU for adding the bounty! It made for some interesting talk leading up to the Mini Stock 4 Race.

KMB Motorsports (Kenny Brown) Thank You for adding the Hard Charger Award.

Taylor's Insurance (Chuckie Taylor) Thank You for adding the Tough Luck Award

Kevin Fisher Photos, Nevin Twiddy, Wesley Cogdell, Local Race Chat and Nash Brick Thank you for adding the money for the Highest Finishing CLR and Dixieland driver. These helped raise the car count and put some extra fans in those stands.

I want to Thank all the usual Clary's drivers who showed up and supported this effort. Made it a heck of a show.

Thank You to all the CLR and Dixieland drivers, crews and fans for coming out for this special event. I hope you enjoyed your trip and are welcome back anytime.

Most of all I want to THANK everyone who bought all those raffle tickets and all the fans that came out last night to show your support for this event. It was a great night and well deserved attention for the Mini Stocks.

But we are not done yet folks!!!!! We have a big SLM race this Saturday night!!! The 1,000 dollar's for the top of the purse is in place, the Pole Award, the Hard Charger and the Longest Tow are also in place. Now we need to raise some funds to make this race at least $200 to start and to have some money to spread through out the purse. Lets go to work.

Also gonna have another raffle to announce real soon with the money going to another class to have their own SPECIAL NIGHT

ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!

And thank you, JH. Clarys is lucky to have someone like you. Not only are you the track announcer, but you also work very hard promoting the track.

Who would have ever believed the mini-stock class would grow so much in the last few weeks! Wow! It was an awesome race and very much worth all the hard work that was involved. As most people know Glenn and I (GRS Heating and Air) chose to do the raffle for the mini-stock class not only because the car count was so low, but because we might be a little partial to the driver of the 8J, Brad Cox, one of our four grandsons.

Brad made us so proud. It’s not all about winning, it’s about racing and he gave it his best.

A big “thank you” to Dwayne, Missy, Doug, Marcie and J.C! Without them we would not have such a great place to race on Saturday nights.

We are looking forward to another raffle with the hopes that it will also be a huge success.

So everyone… let’s race, have fun and most of all “be safe”.

Rebecca
