Hope to see everyone there, Gary Elliott will be giving away a Bike for his 40th anniversary givaway. David Elliott Racing Team Adjusts 2008 Racing Schedule As David Elliott’s chances at a 2008 Late Model Title have been severely hindered due to a mechanical failure on opening night and now a questionable scoring call by Flamboro Speedway, the team has re-evaluated its 2008 racing schedule. David said “That after hearing the news from the Speedway early Tuesday morning, the Team decided, instead of running every weekend at Flamboro, David will run a limted Flamboro schedule. We will also run at Sauble and Delaware Speedway. “We’re in this to have fun, this is our hobby,” said David. “Based on the first three weeks of this year’s schedule, we’ve decided not to burn ourselves out trying to win the title that is realistically already out of reach.” The team will take one weekend off each month to allow team members to spend time with their families and the #37 Pennzoil Monte Carlo will make appearances at various sponsor locations. “With a lack of promotion resulting in poor attendance at Flamboro Speedway, we feel we can offer greater visibility for our sponsors by running a limited schedule and doing more appearances,” said David. The tentative schedule for the team is listed in the above link and we will also take off one additional weekend in September. _______________________________________ Happy Mothers Day David Elliott Wins first Feature in 2 years
David Elliott wins the feature and Heat on May 10th, but it isn't the way David and his Crew wanted it to finish. The feature had lots of caution laps and went for about an hour only running 16 laps. David led all 16. Coming off turn 4, David spun his tires and got sideways, and contact was made between David and Jason Shaw running second, David ended up crossing the line sideways and spun into the infield just past the start finish line. There was another incident on the track at the same time and the caution came out again and the race was called due to time. David was upset thinking he had no chance to gain any of the spots he lost, but track officials said that because the 37 Pennzoil Monte Carlo crossed the finish line in first and didn't bring out the caution. The win went to David. Needless to say there were lots of protests put in after the races, and David doesn't blame the other drivers one bit, " This has never happened before and I'm pretty sure it won't happen again, I'm just glad to be on the other end of a call." The race is still unofficial but as of right now David Elliott racing Had a perfect night. Thanks mainly to the hard work and determination of the crew. Ed, Marty , Brett, Dave C, Mike and Gordon did a great job as usual. Awesome job guys. ________________________________________ For any information e-mail davidelliottracing@yahoo.com |
