Bubba Update - Fonda Speedway

Empire Super Sprints - Fonda, NY

Heat
Started 7
Finished 11

B Main
Started 10
Finished 5

It was Bubba and the team's first time ever to Fonda Speedway. From
the start it was a challenge trying to figure out the egg-shaped oval.
With making changes for the B Main, the set up for the car was
improved, and Bubba moved from the back to finish the B Main one spot
out of transferring to the feature event. Since it was not a points
race for the team, it goes down as a learning experience for the next
time they visit the track.

Bubba and the team will be at Arbitell Convenience for fan
appreciation day on Sunday morning, so stop by for all the day's
activities.

Bubba Update - Oshweken Speedway

Canadian Nationals Night No. 2 Time Trials 20th out of 77

Heat Started 3rd Finished 7th

B Main Started 10th Finished 1st

Feature Started 19th Finished 14th

Bubba made the feature through the B Main with an impressive run from the 10th position to take the win.

Having to start in the rear of the feature Bubba moved up 5 positions through the field before the checkers flew.

Another good outing for Bubba and the team with the high car count of very competitive teams and drivers.

Next week Bubba and the team will be competing closer to home at Fonda Speedway on Saturday night. Hopefully we will see you there. - Chris

Saturday, September 19th...

Happy 20th Birthday Bubba!! Linda/Norm

Happy Birthday Bubba!

Good Luck Tonight!

Bubba Update - Oshweken Speedway - 9/18/09

Night Number 2 in Canada
Canadian Nationals - "The Night Before the National"

Heat
Started 10th
Finished 4th

Feature
Started 10th
Finished 14th

Almost 70 cars attended the Friday night show and only 2 cars would transfer from the Friday night event to Saturday's feature. Since this is an open event, all drivers had to draw for starting position for the night. Luck was not on hand for Bubba with a draw of 92 out of 100, this put him starting in the back of the pack in the qualifying heat race starting 10th in one of the six heat races for the evening.

In order to qualify for one of the evening's Twin 15 lap events, he needed to finish in the top 5. Bubba made the charge from 10th to 4th moving him into one of the night's feature events.

Bubba & Bones thought they would need to step up and make some changes to remain competitive in the feature event, since a win was the only way to guarantee a transfer to Saturday's feature. So they adjusted the car, and Bubba set out for the feature event, right away Bubba figured out that the changes did not help the car. No worries though, because Saturday's event put all but 2 cars back on a level playing field with time trials and heat races for the final night at the Canadian Nationals.

I will keep you updated when I get the update from Bubba. - Chris

Bubba Update - Oshweken Speedway

Night Number 1 in Canada
ESS Event

The night started off good for Bubba with 50+ cars attempting to
qualify for the Thursday night show. Bubba won his heat race and
qualified for the dash finishing 3rd. He started the feature event
from the outside pole. Durring the 4 wide parade lap Bubba noticed
that the front wing was broken but tried his best to keep going but
the damaged wing altered the handling of the car and when the checkers
flew he was in 20th place.

Two more nights of racing for Bubba and the team in Canada at
Oshweken. Will keep you updated. - Chris

American Sprint Car Series - Eriez Speedway

........Broderick jumped from fourth to second on the opening lap and from that point to the finish was never more than five car lengths from the No. 51. The two navigated through lapped traffic masterfully and made life difficult for Howland

Bubba had a great night! Starting fourth, he ran a good line to finish

flew at lap 20, Bubba gained great momentum, passing the lapped number
45 putting him directly behind the leader, and securing the second
