Posted by: DaveBacon« on: November 02, 2013, 01:29:36 AM »Hey guys and gals, my name is Dave Bacon. I've been racing at South Buxton the past 4 years running a partial schedule every year. The first two years I ran a 4 cylinder mustang, then built a mini mod the following year. Finally I raced a sport stock last year. I'll be running at Delaware this year in a old Super Stock again on a partial schedule. You can check out my teams fan page @ www.baconboys.com
Posted by: Thunder20« on: September 12, 2010, 12:04:02 PM »Hey all, I'm Kevin and I drive the #20 Thunder based at Flamboro that visited back at the end of July, beginning of August. I started out racing Challengers back in '89, but up until this year, had never raced at Delaware. Racing at Flamboro had ceased to be fun (for a variety of reasons, not necessarily the track's fault), so I thought I'd try something different.Owing to the fun I had at Delaware, I was seriously considering making the switch to Friday nights, especially considering that my work schedule allows the long drive. However, I think the time has come for me to hang it up, so I guess I won't be joining the SSS ranks after all, It was a blast though, and we got some great video footage. Good luck to all in '11(especially my buddy Juice Box and the #60), I'm sure I'll get there to watch.

I Just found this thread and relized your workin for the competition LOL !!! Send me a P.M !!! Posted by: Shadowracer« on: August 09, 2009, 07:19:26 AM »Welcome Matt. Nice to have another Shipway on board!
And a howdy to Mark too. Well have to get together and hash out some Delaware history sometime. Posted by: Sprintcarfan« on: August 08, 2009, 11:27:51 PM »Hello Everyone
My name is Matt Shipway, my brother paul is the Driver of the 88 Powerade Modified, im currently going to school for engineering. I have been involved with raciing since i was 6 years old and have been turning wrenches ever since. If it has tires and a motor, i will work on it. I have raced myself at grand bend speedway for a few years before retiring to be a crew member on the mod. I race remote control cars, my cheap little way of still racing. I do prefer sprint cars, but will not turn down the chance to watch a race of any type. Good luck to everyone and see you all at the track Posted by: BornAgainFan« on: August 03, 2009, 06:40:26 PM »Wow how cool will it be to see a MOPAR racing. I am a huge fan of anything MOPAR perhaps I should change my name to MOPAR MAN. Any way I will definitely be a fan if you run MOPAR even if you are part of snotrod team.
Posted by: snotrod2« on: August 02, 2009, 12:37:08 PM »Hi everyone!! Just thought I would introduce myself; I am Mark, the second half of team Snotrod. I built the car for Tyssen and I and I am the lucky one who gets to fix the car after every race. I have been going to Delaware for 23 years now; since I was 3 years old. My aspirations are to eventually turn my '98 Dodge Ram into a Demar Truck within the next year or so. I am now on Sid's team, pitting for the 33 and 88 trucks. Every week I look forward to being at the track on Friday night and getting an extra cheesy poutine in the pits. I love how Delaware has so much history and I have been researching it for many years. There are so many good people at the track; fans, drivers and teams and have met very few whom I dislike. If anyone ever needs a hand with anything, I work in a shop and have worked on cars since I was a kid. My Dad helped me get into racing when I was 16. He is passed away now so everything I do, I dedicate to him. Well, that's me. See you all at the track!!
Posted by: Shadowracer« on: July 27, 2009, 07:13:16 AM »"Brooksie" thats what people call me !!! Been racin way to long (81) my Dad's fault LOL !!! Tell me about the Fastest car you ever drove Heya Brooksie...glad you finally made it over. For those that don't know, Gary here drives the 57 Powerade Modified. (He usually does pretty good for an old guy.) Gary and I both started out on the same page, racing our dinky cars around makeshift tracks carved out of the top of the hill at Nilestown Speedway. But he ended up driving real race cars, and I ended up yapping about them on the internet.  There's a number of photos in the "historical thread" that are from him.

  Posted by: Statsman« on: July 22, 2009, 09:56:55 AM »My name is Craig Zurbrigg Hi Craig: I didn't know about your connection with Ken McIlroy and had been trying to remember who it was that owned that car. Was your dad also involved in the previous #04 Mustang?  This was from the 1970 season and it is an earlier body (67?) and lighter orange than the #4. I remember at invitationals in Barrie and from the pages in Wheelspin. The later one ran all over the place. Posted by: Shadowracer« on: July 22, 2009, 07:35:09 AM »Heya Racerwife, thanks for coming around. Well make sure to root for the 3 car this weekend!
And Zoom, welcome. Off the top of my head, you drive the white 4 car and you were there at the Partsource race right? Welcome to the boards! Always great to have aniother racer on board. You guys run primarily Flammy don't you? Its impossible for me to forget that 4 Mustang that Ken Mcllroy drove...growing up, whenever we say that kind of car on the street, my Dad would say "there goes a Mcllroy Mustang" I still think of them like that. Posted by: Zoom« on: July 21, 2009, 07:06:02 PM »My name is Craig Zurbrigg
I've been racing late models for 22 years on a very tight budget In the early 70's Ken McIlroy raced the #4 Mustang for my father Wayne I bought that car out of a scrap yard to start racing at Sauble and Varney in 1987 I also sat in the stands at Delaware as a kid and remember most of the names in other posts, and remember the car flipping and knocking down the string of lights I'm sure dad would love to talk to anyone about that era next time I'm racing there, he still has never missed a race I've been in Please stop by and introduce yourself, probably Laborday weekend Zoom |
