Lappy's racing up-dates!

We are also selling one of our haul trucks. Trades are accepted. PM me for more details.

I heard today the track is not closed closed, but will we open sometime in July.
 
Clinton County Speedway is closed.

http://www.clintoncountyspeedway.net/

Due to my health condition, low car count and low fan attendance we regretfully have to close down. We want to thank all the racers and fans that supported us each and every week. If the economy turns around and fuel prices go down, things may change. But for now we cannot keep the track open. James & Mary Brown
 
Hope to have the car ready to race Sat night.

I re counted and have 6 races to make the chase. I am 12th place, 117 out. (Clarksville)
 
July 5
Clarksville

Draw - 3
Heat - 3 ( motor/fuel/dont really know problems)
Feature - 1

Im really to tired to type, but i took the lead when the leader spun him self out right in front of me, and lead the last 6 laps. We had about 8 restarts in 6 laps. (Yellow dont count in dirt) and was able to hold them off for my 1st win in the mini mod class and at Clarksville!!

This was also my 1st race back since the wreck a few weeks ago, and the 1st race with the 5 speed in the car!!

THIS JUST IN FROM LAPPY

"Feature only at Clarksville. Started 3rd, took lead at flag stand. Lead flag to flag! 2 in a Row!"
 
Thank ya'll!!

I went and looked at another car today. Nothing special about it. It will be my Paducah car. Just were i can get UMP national points and everything.

Clarksville was fun this week. Due to a low car count in our class we ran just a feature. no heats. I started 3rd. I knew the car in front of me was "slow" (well slower then me) And on the start once the green is out, you can go and pass. So i held back a little on the guy, and once the leader started to rev his motor comming out of 4, i droped to the bottom and look the lead! Lead all 12 laps. I had one car pass me, but i guess he tryed so hard, he spun out! and the last lap i had a car pull up beside me, but i drove it in deep the last lap and held em off for my 2nd win in a row!!
 
Thanks, Mag! Lot of hours in work on that car.

I got another car tonight. As of now it's not much. Got to do a lot of work to get it on the track. Might not be able to get out this year. When we build cars we do not just throw something togather.

Work to do on new car:
Sand-primer-paint
paint cage and inside of car
Take off doors/hood
strip out doors and hood
build front bumper
build kickers onto cage, re do door bars
set up front and rear end. (If i told ya id have to kill ya)
Strip un-needed parts from upder hood. (AC, Heater, Wipers, ect)
and maybe some more stuff.


But before i do that, i got to stip out some parts cars i have seting around. Going to be a busy next few weeks
 
Points:

Track:
Clarksville: 9th +1

UMP: (still waiting on non members to be removed from standings)
Tenn 32/150 +6
Nation 220/1199 +50

I'v got 6 races in for UMP so far this year. I hope to have my orther car running in a few weeks so i can race Fri and Sat and rack up more points. They count your best 25. Be close for me to be able to get that many races in, but i'll try.
 
Clarksville 7-26-08

Make Up Feature for 7-12 - 5th.
*Car just was not running right, handled good, just was flat and was turring around 6 grand. Some cars got togather on last lap and i got around 2, almost 3.

--------------------------------------------------

Heat - 2
*Started 3rd. Car was fast and 1-3 was all side by side, and racing hard, then mine went to crap again, i just stayed with it and held on, a car spun on the last lap so i picked up one spot

Feature - 3
*Had fastest car, was running and handling to a T, but the leaders were side by side, and kept pinching me off. My front tires stick out a good deal, so i really cant rub them. But 1-3 was probley not over 5 cars lenghts at the finish.

---------------------

Stayed 9th in points at the track, so it was a good night.
 
I was disapointed that the car did not run better. I was driving the car in so hard i was lifting the left rear wheel off the ground around 8 in! (car is Front wheel drive)

But the good news is, if i have done my math right. I am LOCKED in the Chase. Not really for sure were i will start the Chase at in points. But as of right now i am 9th. But I could be higher up when it starts. (not for sure on the format they use)
 
Clarksville- 9 + 0

With my math, i am locked into the chase. I have been in about 1/2 the races as the top 3. Also have the fastest car on the track. If all goes well i think we have a shot at this. Im not sure how it will stack up after the chase starts, but i think i'll be in a good spot to give them a run.

Thanks guys!

I know iv never been a fan of the chase in NASCAR, but hell i like this! :D :rolleyes:

I don't understand why they gave the leader 1000 points. When most drivers that were leading had over 1000. And 11th to even 14th in some classes is still really close. I think it should be 2000 for even 3000 for the leader and down 5 points each tell 10th. I have been temped to call the owner. But i dont think he wants to hear from me for a little while. :)

I guess play time is over, time to kick ass and take names!

UMP:

Nation: 148/1300 +17
TN: 26/(over 150) +1

Getting harder to move up in points. Id like to get a top 50 Nation and 10 in State. But since i got off to a late start, i'll be happy with what i can get. But being ranked 148 out of 1300 is sweet!

Next year im going for UMP National, along with KY & TN State. I'll have 3-4 cars going. 2 for PIR and 1-2 for Clarksville.

Feature - 2

I started 6th, got up to 2nd on the 1st or 2nd lap, but the leader was gone. with 2 to go the yellow came out. When we went back to green I went to the bottom and pulled along side of him on the back strech, and he truned down and i had to back out to keep from wrecking. I tryed like hell to get a nothing good run on him but never could. you could not fit a bike between us at the line.

Im tryin to figger out points. I moved up to 4th, but am now 26 points behind. But the "leader" i have beat both weeks. I added up with and it turns out rights, i just dont see how it can be. How i went from 19 out. to 26 out and i finished 2nd!! :confused::confused:


The car that won and was 400 pounds light (they let the guy keep win and money, but got no points) blew up in hot laps...Them Toyota's make good power and can screem, but when they blow...they blow big time!

UMP of as 8-11-08(not counting this week of racing)
Nation - 139 +9
TN - 25 +1

Depending on if they drop non-members and everything, after i recived my points from 8-16-08 I could be around 100th in the nation, and 22nd in TN.

Last year i was 18th in the Mid America Nation. But they are doing the points this year, like they do with the rest of the classes. I know i will not be able to win it this year, but maybe i can keep sneeking up and get another cool trophy this year.
