One of the plusses of running a “true outlaw” schedule is that if inclement weather is forecasted, a change in plans can quickly be made and a track with a more favorable forecast can usually be found. That is the approach that Taylor Ferns and her team took last weekend as rain was called for and fell for a large portion of the day at Fremont Speedway in Ohio, where they had planned to race. They headed north instead and hit the track at Butler Motor Speedway in...more

I have been very busy since that special Saturday night on June 28, 2014, when I completed a POWRi feature event at Tri-State Speedway finishing 14th. Just buying pit passes and registering to race at a track that it seems like I went to 100 times as a kid was amazing! Pulling out on the track and having really fast hot laps caused the excitement for race time to build even more because I felt like I had a chance to get a good finish. All that came crashing to a...more
