Upcoming events...May 22-24, 2015

Hey there fans!
Just wanted to let you know that Bowman Gray will be this weekend at 8:00 on Saturday, and I will be looking forward to seeing you! In honor of the Alexander family and Baby Declan, Jason Myers helmet will be auctioned off! So buy a raffle ticket for this incredible helmet worn by Jason himself when he won first place in past seasons races. What a great day to come home with your favorite drivers helmet huh?! Donations will also be taken as well, plus you can buy a shirt for 10$ to help fundraise for this family.

For the fans that don't know about Baby Declan... He was born with Hypoplastic left heart syndrome. This disease is when the parts of the left side of the heart do not develop. His left side of the heart is blocked which means restricted blood flow. He is being held at the Duke hospital in Raleigh, NC to make sure he is taken care of by the best. Currently Declan has been put on a heart transplant list which could take up to 9 months. There is a 1 year anniversary at Corks Caps and Taps in Downtown Winston Salem at 12:00 to celebrate drivers victories, portions of the money will go to assist this family to take care of Baby Declan.

Also the PASS race at Concord Speedway will be held at Concord Motor Speedway this Friday at 7:00! So get off work early and come on down! Different divisions will be racing and the weather looks good, so it will definitely be a great race! I will be there at the crack of dawn, so if you would like to chat... private message me, or send me a tweet!

Thanks again Y'all! See you soon!

Bowman Gray, May 9th, 2015, Winston Salem NC

Well I hope everyone had a great weekend, like I did! This weekend Bowman Gray was jam packed as usual! Sadly, the weather did take a turn and the race got cancelled... But surely next weekend will be wonderful!

This weekend we had the Krazy Kevin Powell 100, which included the modifieds racing 100 laps, and  the Colors Edge challenge. This challenge was given to the best 4 qualifiers and also given a decision whether or not to accept. If the driver was to accept, he/she would win money depending on position, but if the driver did not accept,  he/she would redraw as well as the other drivers participating in the race.

This got the fans pumped and wilded up! The announcer did a great job at getting the fans involved when asking the driver to accept the challenge or not, as well as those lovely ladies shooting T-shirts out of the gun to the fans!


Unfortunately, because we had the beginning of the tropical storm... We only got through 2 full series, and almost halfway through the Kevin Powell 100 modifieds. After trying to dry the track for several minutes, Bowman Gray decided to call the race for safety reasons.


Although the rain did call the race, the money from the challenge will be doubled next weekend. Keep your head up and pray for no rain next weekend!


Next weekend I will be covering Bowman Gray again, and hope to see many over you there!
