This is a quick "tidbits" update.
Please make sure you keep the Daughertys in your thoughts and prayers as their daugther Dawn suffered a Seizure Monday afternoon. As you read in previous tidbits update a couple of weeks ago, this young lady is suffering from Autism. Her father, Ray, will keep us informed on her condition but please keep the family in your prayers. For more on Autism and how you can help, refer to the information and donation request down below.
Mike Goodman will be driving the Tom and Kevin Pickard #78 super sprint at SFS almost ever week at SFS in 2008. Mike will also be driving the #22 champ sprint (see photo in the image gallery) at SFS and on the OCRS tour as he goes for his fourth series victory.
From all indications, the ORA and booster club car show at the parking lot at Pole Position Raceway was a success. Despite changing dates and taking the heat for making changes for some - who didn't even show up - it appeared that the day went off without a hitch. Kudos to all of you who did attend. I have Mike Howards photos that he took on that day in the image gallery and should have my developed and posted soon.
Met young, 14 yr. old Shayla Waddell as she had her beautiful #88 champ sprint on hand for the car show. This I-44 Speedway champion in the restricture division says she is not intimidated in the move up to the faster and bigger track and even seems to have class about herself and represents herself well. Already a step ahead of some. I hope to have a profile of her completed soon so stay tuned her for more details.
The classified ad section has been updated with a complete motor for sale. Check it out!!

Mr. Hoser himself, Alan Holland, will be on hand this weekend at the Devils Bowl Speedway for the annual Spring Nationals featuring the ASCoT. Hopefully I can make it down for Friday night (sons Putnam City West tournament pending) and see Alan, who I was one of the first writers on his page (tidbits column) back when he started almost ten years ago. It amazes him to this day that something that he started just for fun has turned into one huge and dominating website. My Saturday night plans (tournament pending) is the USMTS show at Humboldt Speedway in Kansas.
Back to Mike Howard and his photos, he is seriously contemplating on developing his website to sell photos and if he does, you will be able to access that website once it is done. In the meantime, keep viewed here for all his photos and make sure you order what you like from him. He is now selling huge (can't remember the size but I am sure when he reads this he will email me) poster size photos for $35. Stay tuned here for more information on that.
Don't forget the "Kegger" at Tri-State Speedway in Pocola is also this weekend. I understand that Tyler Propps will be there to try to represent OKC well. Click on the banner up above for more race information.
Looks as though Outlaw Motor Speedway in Wainwright will climb aboard with a track ad for 2008. Until then, look for more information for their $5000 to win, $1000 to start modified race on April 10-12 on their website at www.outlawmotorspeedway.com.
