The site has some useful info but the driver and track bashing is brutal. I rarely go to it as it takes too much time to weed thru the crap.

The race went green the whole 100 laps, only 35 mins to complete. Walters & Donaldson lapped the field  all the way to the 7th place car. Brandon was flying out there but sorry he didn't lap Baker, Jongen or Shepherd. He was about half a track behind the front 2. I got the top 10 as Walters, Donaldson, Delisle, Watson, Parsons, Graham, Baker, Jongen, Shepherd, Morrow.

 100  Lap race ,35 minutes to run with no cautions and a 23 car field sounds like it was a heck of a race. Very few tracks will have this happen in a year. Congrats Kawartha on a race well done

In spite of all the green with envy comments about Brandon Watson, I saw a 14 year old kid drive onto Kawartha's Speedway's track for a 100 lap race with all the top LLM's from 4 or 5 race tracks and drive an awesome race to finish fourth. The comments worthy of reading about Brandon Watson should only be to praise the ability that this young racer has at the age of 14 and he's experiencing the reality of what many racers can only dream about. Give him the credit he is due and be happy for him as I'm sure he will give many of us something to cheer about in the future.

To set the record straight for some of you knuckle draggers, I have never been to Barrie Speedway but I like to think that I can recognize driving ability and skill in an unbiased way. For those of you who think it was the car that made the difference, I know a ton of experienced LLM drivers who wouldn't have done nearly as well if they were driving the same race car as Brandon Watson.

Good job Brandon :)

How many times have we seen guys show up with the best equipment in the world and run around at the back of the field or get in everyone's way?

For a kid to jump in a LLM for the second time, first time on the track and finish in 4th place in a 100 lapper on a very fast track with a top field of cars is quite an accomplishment.

Unless you travel a lot it is not easy to just show up and get the setup right. Guys that run week in and week out at any track are generally tough to beat by any interlopers. On the other hand anyone can have an off night if something unexpected goes off in the car.  I notice that Chris Morrow didn't exactly set the place on fire either and he's been by far the best at Sunset this year. Walters has been running Kawartha the past few years but even he hasn't been on his usual game in the past few weeks there. If you are off a few tenths over a green 100 laps you are going to get lapped that is just an arithmetic fact :)

Typical dumb Barrie comment, Mcloud will not run anywhere except at Barrie,l must have been confused l thought Baker was leading the points at Barrie and Jongen was 3rd in the points.Also full praise for Brandon at that speed on that track it is an impressive result.

yes..speedwaysure...it sure was dumb...if you had left that dump and come to a real race track...you would have noticed that over the last few weeks, Baker's been about the third quickest....and your rebuttle was a typical sunset comment...

  I got this PM from a CRO member awhile back

Pinecrest:
The only thing we know about SpeedwaySue is that
a) She's bat-shit crazy;
b) Bitter

 I thought this would be an appropriate time to share it with the rest of you .

While ya'll sit back and bicker back and forth, do you guys realize what you could possibly have if you worked together (across the fan, team and track ownership levels) rather than fought to the death? Just curious, that's all...
