November 7 Race Results - Susquehanna Speedway Park

Monday, November 9th, 2009

As you all know, Shawn started 16th in the rained out 20 lap feature at SSP. Upon arriving at the track, Duane made some final adjustments to the car before warm ups. Shawn went out for warm ups and came in and was very pleased with how the car handeled, and was ready for the feature.
As scheduled and as per qualifying last week, Shawn started 16th. He had good feelings about this race, and he finished in 8th. Shawn just wanted to end the 2009 racing season with a top ten finish and did it.
The car was great, and the Team was very happy at the end of the day.
Shawn would like to thank Todd and Rhonda Fisher for having them there to race. Shawn would also like to thank Duane for all the hard work and dedication this season, and all the hours traveling on the highways. He would also like to thank LaDonna Coleman for joining the Team mid season and taking over as the Public Relations Director for the Team. He would also like to thank all of the sponsors for their support and dedication through the trying season. Thank you also goes out to me, Matt, for trying to keep this site updated with the information relayed to me.
I have to admit, at first, I had my doubts, but I know where Shawns’ heart is, and how hard he works to make everyone happy.
The Team has raced at many tracks over this past 2009 racing season. From as far away as Oklahoma, Delaware, and Pennsylvania. They had their work cut out for them, as many of the tracks were a weekend of racing, and off to the next track. They raced at Susquehanna Speedway Park, Trailway Speedway, Path Valley Speedway Park, Shippensburg Speedway, Port City Raceway, Middleford Speedway, and Airport Speedway. I think I got them all.
Again, Thank you to everyone for their support, sponsorship, and hard work and dedication during the 2009 racing season. I have had a fun time dealing with the Team and their professionalism. As I am made aware of any updates over the next few weeks, I will be sure to post them here for everyone to read. Shawn, Thanks for having me on board. It has been a pleasure getting to know who you are and, well, you are not what most people think.
Well, the racing season is all but wrapped up, so, I guess I must say, see you all soon and keep in touch.
Matt

November 7, 2009 Racing Plans

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

The decision has been made to stay in Pennsylvania this weekend and compete in the feature that we qualified for this past Saturday that ended up being rained out. We will be racing at Susquehanna Speedway Park. Warm ups are scheduled to start at 12:30 with racing starting at 1:00. The Micro Sprint feature will be first, and will be a 20 lap event.
Shawn is scheduled to start in the 16th spot at the drop off the green flag. This track is by far the biggest track the Micro Sprints race on in this area. Should be interesting to see how fast these cars go, and who has the power and stamina to forgo the gruelling 20 laps.
Stay tuned, as with all of racing, plans do tend to change. Thanks for your visit, Matt

October 31, 2009 - Susquehanna Speedway Park

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

On Saturday, October 31, the Team traveled to Susquehanna Speedway Park. We would like to send a “Thank You” to co-owners, Todd and Rhonda Fisher, for welcoming us to the track.
Shawn was slated to start 11th in the second heat. The weather wasn’t looking good, but the track was very well prepared. Shawn finished 8th in the heat race to qualify for the 20 lap main feature. Just as the cars were being called to help run in the track, a heavy steady rain forced the cancelation of the race until Saturday, November 7.
The Team is currently working with Public Relations Director, LaDonna Coleman, in Tulsa, OK, to figure out where the Team will be racing this weekend.
They had a prior engagement to race in North Carolina on Saturday, November 7. They will be watching the weather forcast for both tracks and will make an announcement by Thursday evening on where they will end up.
Again, the Team would like to say “Thank You” to everyone at Susquehanna Speedway Park, and all the participants that welcomed the Team as well.
I will post by Thursday evening what the outcome will be for this weekend. Thanks everyone, Matt
