Well Kenny, I got the word on Jake Keaton straight from the driver's keyboard.
"We are planning on racing at Ona this weekend. We will have the three classic cars and the modified there. We may also race a few more dirt races this year. For next year we are planning on just racing the dirt modified. All of our asphalt cars are for sale. However, if we don't sell out the cars we might race a few races at Ona next year."
So Jakefans, get out to Ona in force this Saturday night! And for the big-time fans, here's a chance for serious memorabilia - own your own Jake Keaton car! NASCAR fans buy sheetmetal, hoods, tires, lugnuts, etc. Why not a whole car? (No, I'm not getting commission on any sales, either.)
Don't forget this Saturday is the big end of the season Halloween blowout at Ona Speedway.
Kids and kids in costume can trick or treat in the pits, getting candy from drivers. Yay! Candy! Yay! Costumes! Yay!
There is a kids' bike race to kick off the racing Saturday night. You know you love to watch the little tykes on bikes! I think if you are a real little person on a teeny tiny bike or have training wheels, you should get a head start all the way to turn three. Hear that Mike? Maybe to turn four. They need a chance to win at least one time this year. Yeah, all the way to turn four!
The WV Pumpkin Festival Queen will be at the track to present trophies and plaques to winners in all divisions for the season point standings.
Now, a merciless plug for my own activities this weekend...
The annual Fall Festival at New Life Church (1101 Cedar Crest Dr., Huntington) will feature Herd Racing's NASCAR Nationwide Cup #75 car and the new NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series truck. Brett Rowe will drive both in the 2009 season. He'll be at the festival to sign autographs and talk racing with fans.
The Nationwide car will be racing Saturday at Memphis Motorsports Park with Tim Weaver driving. Both the Herd Racing #75 and Faith Motorsports #89 will be sponsored by Lagina Plumbing, a Wisconsin-based company.
Brett will be in Louisville with Truck sponsorship commitments. That sponsor will be announced tomorrow in Louisville. The car won't be MU themed, but will have Herd signage. Both cars will be green and yellow themed.
Driver of the #89, Morgan Shepherd is currently 27th in Nationwide driver points and Faith Motorsports is 31st in owner points.
Well, I think that's everything for right now. More about Herd Racing's truck sponsorship when it happens tomorrow.
