Microstocks return to Mahoning

This Saturday Night May 8th, Mahoning Valley Speedway will be host to the Microstocks in front of a great crowd as part of the regularly scheduled Saturday night event. This Class of Sportsman powered cars, including many having the ever favorite sedan body will hit the track for some high speed action. Topping out near 65MPH nose to tail and attracting 15-20 cars on a regular basis, they put on a show while exposing new people to the thrills and affordable fun to be had in a Microstock. Many Asphalt modified team members also get the chance to drive and to compete against the driver they help support the rest of the season.
Mahoning Valley Speedway is located in Lehighton, Pennsylvania a short drive from New Jersey.


Microstocks are scheduled along with the regular Saturday night line up for the following dates,

May 8th
June 19th
July 31st
August 21st
And
September 18th

Here is the post race write up from the mahoning speedway site

The Micro Stocks made their first appearance of the season and in it was a very competitive event. Pete Bayles led early but on lap six DJ Wagner reeled him and two laps later made the pass for the lead.

However, Wagner would only enjoy one lap out front as he and Bayles got their bumpers locked and had to stop in order to undo the issue.

Bob Wagner of Rockaway, NJ, then assumed the point and held off Roger Snyder en route to his third Mahoning win.

Wayne Krenn and Bob Wagner earned heat verdicts.

Modified Outlaw Micro Stocks at Wall Stadium

Ervin Scores 3rd Straight M.O.M. Victory

Wall Township, N.J. – Defending Modified Outlaw Micro Stock Champion “Uncle” Nick Cottone led the field to the green flag by virtue of a dominating last to first run in his heat race. At the start Cottone out dragged Tom Ervin to take the early lead going into turn one. Ervin attempted a crossover move to pass Cottone on the inside coming off of turn two, but Cottone got a good run off of the corner and pulled away by several car lengths. Ervin was able to make ground on Cottone in the corners, but Cottone continued to dominate the second half of the straights. Ervin eventually managed to close the gap, and a fierce battle began between the two with Ervin trying Cottone on both sides but unable to complete a pass.

Shortly after the halfway point Cottone got loose coming off of turn four. Ervin made contact with Cottone, sending Cottone spinning. Ervin was put to the rear for rough riding, handing the lead to Dennis Hiddemen with Joe Spiegel restarting in second. On the restart Hiddemen jumped out to a several car lead while Cottone and Ervin charged back towards the front. Ervin got to Hiddemen first and took the lead for the first time in the feature event with Cottone closing quickly. Once Cottone cleared Hiddemen he proceeded to run down Ervin, but was unable to make the pass. On the final lap Cottone got to the inside of Ervin entering turn one but Ervin got a good run off of turn two to hold off Cottone. Entering turn three Cottone again got his nose inside of Ervin, but Ervin was able to beat him to the line to claim his third straight win of the season. Hiddemen rounded out the top three.

Returning to action for the first time this season was Dennis Hiddemen in his #6. Hiddemen worked with his car all day, getting faster every time he hit the track.

The #99 K&K Express driven to victory by Ervin is sponsored by K&K Industries of Ewing Twp., NJ, Al’s Sunoco of Pennington, NJ, and Trenton Hot Rod Shop of Trenton, NJ.

The Modified Outlaw Micro Stocks will return to action on Sunday, May 23rd at Wall Stadium. The Modified Outlaw Micro Stocks may also compete on May 16th. Watch the Wall Stadium Sunday Series web site at http://www.wallsundayseries.com for more information. There is no club fee to race with M.O.M., and all Modified Micro Stock Drivers are welcome to compete.

SFI de-certification of Impact products

From what I am reading it appears that the SFI foundation has posted a “Cease and Desist” letter against Impact Racing. SFI is demanding that Impact recall and refund all customers who have the products affected by the claim. On further reading SFI claims this is in line with maintaining safety and the intent of the SFI Foundation. However, In My Opinion, this is about money. On the other hand, if Impact has gone and outsourced the SFI tags as claimed by SFI them selves. Although its capitalism at its best, it could be a poor business practice by Impact if they installed counterfeit tags as claimed by SFI and then did not pay for the licensing for such tags. No matter what the outcome, the end result will be hardships on the racers and racing community caused by either deceptive business practices on the part of Impact or of suspicions on the part of SFI.

Shame on Impact if SFI’s claims are true.
Or
Shame in SFI if this proves to be malicious.

Please follow the links and read for yourselves.

March 30th Update

Impact racing has a new post regarding the issue, Their lawyers have filed an appeal and there is a hearing in court on April 1st. They have made no claims to the maker of the tags but claim that they have full certification.

Lets all hope this gets resolved quickly.

Snydersville Track Meeting

February 28, 2010 @ 1:00 pm

Central Pocono Ambulance Building - Tannersville, PA 18372

Wow.. what a whirl wind!

OK.. so the Micostock News Wire has been neglected for some time. I am quite sorry, I had a few things going on. I got rid of an "albatross" around my neck, sold my house and moved to a much better place, At work a corporate takeover has jumbled things around restricting access to blogging accounts then a computer crash. Needless to say I had a few things going on. However, life is settling down, everything is back on track and its time to start this bad boy up again.

News From Weinacker Motorsports
the 24x has been stripped down, frame sandblasted and re painted. New Body panels and the new number are in and the rebirth in to the number 42X will happen soon.



The 10 car has goten a new front bumper, axle and real king pins along with brass sleeves in the spindles.

The 94 got a full going over with new bearings, belts and a WF motor that has a working compression release.

The 12a is currently torn down to nothing and being changed in to a sidewinder.

On a side note, The MRL Rule book will be updated with this years date on the front and no other changes unless someone can provide the WKA WF stock rules.

We are planning on coming back to Wall this year and being competitive with all 4 cars. Many many issues were found, resolved, repaired, rebuilt and or replaced.

See ya at the track!
