Title: Summer Sizzler
Post by: racefan72 on August 22, 2006, 07:32:20 AM
Has anyone heard who or how many cars they can expect to see this Sunday at the Summer Sizzler?  I have enjoyed the last two years of this particular race and hope that the car count and the racing is just as good as it has been.

im sure the count will be just as good if not better, this year are the LLMs going to be running with the LMs?

also, hopefully this year some ACT cars will come out...

is it a completely different car than the one he ran at sauble this year?

Yah, its the car he ran at Sanair in the ACT $10000 to win event. It was a brand new, ACT legal, fast car.

From the sounds of things on one of the other messsages on this board, there could be upwards of 42 cars trying to qualify this coming Sunday.  That is a huge amount of cars.  Certainly will be great racing.

Anyone heard the cost to get in and if they are offering the family rate once again this weekend?

Just checked the Kawartha website and no mention of the cost for the Sizzler but if its the normal rate it will be $14.00 per adult.  And the family rate I think is $30.00 if they are offering.

Would Derek Lynch run the same 15 car that he had at Capital city tonight? Just took a picture of them doing repairs before loading it up. Got into a wreck in the 50 lapper.

I don't think Derek will be running on Sunday, since he is Kawarthas track promoter.

I'm anxious to see if Robblee and McGrath with their Kenyon car will succeed to fight with Jeff Henley and perhaps beat him. Also to see if Dan Mchattie wil be part of the fight. Geart race to follow.

Some great racing at Kawartha today but I was expecting more Late Models. Jeff Hanley certainly had to work for first overall and is still the "King of Kawartha" beating Kirk Hooker by a single point ( three 2nd place finishes for Hanley and a 1st and two 3rd's for Hooker).

Surprised to see Tom Walters driving Shawn McWhirter's car.  Too bad Kyle Donaldson was not able to continue after contact in the first segment as he looked strong.

Robbie Thompson put on perhaps the show of the day by coming from the back in the first segment to win after he and Kirk Hooker got together early on. Hooker also had a great drive in the first segment back up to 3rd.  

Note for Derek (Racepulse): the correct driver's name of #15 is Joey Laquerre, an ACT veteran from Vermont.

One more thing: Did anyone catch who made contact with Robbie Thompson early in the 3rd segment that sent him into the frontstretch wall?  I did not get a good view of the incident. Thompson was tied with Hanley and Hooker going into segment 3 and was ahead of them at the time of his crash.

Not sure if Robby went up or the 15 came down but the 2 made contact and i seen Robby get turned and then they dissapeared behind the green shack and when he reappeared it was done. But definatly contact with the 15...he was put to the back for it.

Thanks ShortTrackFan - just read the name from the
roof of the car.  His name sounds familiar, but I can't say
i know him.   I was expecting a few more invaders too.

looks like 00 steve munro moved up well in the 2 75s . What happened to put him out in the final 50 . Was the 31 McPherson from Ottawa?
PS for Derek (assuming it's Derek Lynch) . I looked for the results under the news link of the Kawartha site but it hasn't been updated since sept 2004. Maybe save fans some frusration and delete that link.

Tom Walters was driving the #31 Shawn McWhirter car. Steve Munro was running very well (tied for 4th place going into the last segment)  until he had contact with another car on the backstretch and hit the inside retaining wall doing lots of damage to the rear end in the final segment.
Title: Summer Sizzler
Post by: Scroad49 on August 28, 2006, 11:31:52 AM
It was tough luck for Munro, he was running so well too.  I think that is the best run he has had, that I can remember at Kawartha.  Other than the incident with Robbie, I think Joey Laquerre ran a pretty good race.  He didn't have the fastest car on the track, but he seemed to have the best handling car.  I don't think he made one pass on the outside,  He kept the car down low, and everyone else seemed to go high.  Mchattie's car looked like it couldn't find the inside of the race track.  He ran high all over the track.

Apparently Munro snapped the quick change rear-end in half.  He hit that wall extremely hard and bent the read end of the car up really good.  They had to bring the trailer out to the infield to load it up.  

The racing was really good.  Like you guys mentioned it's too bad that more Delaware guys didn't show up, but Hooker, Hanley, Shaw  Munro and Thompson(last 2 while they lasted) put on a good show for the fans.

Dunno if Sheridan and Kennedy have their stuff fixed yet from last week, and if Pearn's got his engine troubles figured out yet. Hathaway and Kennington would've been in Montreal, and the 62 and 25 don't travel. The 91 was supposed to be there, and the 20 planned on being there, so who knows where they were...

Walters did not wreck Munro, Hanley got into walters ,hence jeff's visit to pit lane.Walters wrecked himself trying to avoid Munro. Donaldson different story , but its all yesterdays news now.

Hard to believe  but true Walters was running a limited late model with a four barrel carb.

I'd have to say that all the LM's put on an excellent show yesterday not just the front runners.  It was disappointing to only see 29 cars show up after the hype of close to 40 showing but in all reality I'm sure weather played a major role in that decision.  The only 91 car there was Max Beyore.  Are you sure that Walters was running a LLM??  Looked awful lot like his ALSTAR car or even his super late that he ran a year or so ago.
