Featured Video: The Origins of Cherry Picker

Posted Jody Shannon on July 2nd, 2008 | Filed under Jody Shannon, The DRC, Video | Comment now »

If you have been to Brownstown Speedway sometime over the course of the last two seasons, you have heard Moes and his band of merry men bellowing out “Cherry Picker” every time Steve Barnett is on the race track. I thought it was time to get to the bottom of this phenomenon, and who knows, after watching this video you might be screaming CHERRY PICKER too?

Brownstown Speedway Lee Fleetwood Memorial Updates

Posted Jody Shannon on June 28th, 2008 | Filed under Commentary, Jody Shannon, The DRC | 2 Comments »

-Ratliff drove a great race passing Lee about midway through the event. Lee battled back and challenged Justin several times to no avail. Barnett and Lee made contact with Lee getting the worse end of it, spinning Victor. Lee fired on the gas and never lifted, and when the yellow flag waved he got his spot back. Greg Johnson used the highside to move to the second postion at one point, but drove over the bank on the last lap, falling back to fourth. Videos Highlights, Winner interviews and more will be available in the morning. Daryl Herbert won the Modified feature over Shelby Miles. Special thanks to Chris Nunn, Alan Tilley, Mike Despain, and all the staff from the Battle of the Bluegrass for their help with line ups and results. Hope we can do this again soon.

Portsmouth Raceway Park - 6-14-08 - $5,000 IRS Late Model Highlights

Posted Jody Shannon on June 15th, 2008 | Filed under Jody Shannon, The DRC, Video | Comment now »

Portsmouth Raceway Park was racy as usual, with cars racing three and four wide several times during the fifty lap A-Main. “The Salt Rock Express” Eddie Carrier Jr. took the lead on lap one and never looked back. Behind him cars were dicing for position as Tim Dohm and Robbie Blair battled for second. Josh McGuire in his debut with the Stephens Motorsports Team came from the back to run in the top five, only to blow a tire and be forced pitside. Despite having to stop for a flat tire on lap twenty-two, “The Winfield Warrior” Mike Marlar used a heavy foot, and the top groove of PRP to rally his way into a top five finish.
