It's Monday......."let's race"

 Phil Honaker aka..the "Rooster" seen here with a pair of tough Foot Brakers Eugene Ross (in the center) an the late Arvil Thomas. Must have been an old greasy split going on here?
Before he ran TOP Fuel and purchase Wilkesboro Raceway Park, Danny Dunn ran in the ET wars of the day. Danny was an original member of the Farm's 5 second club back in the early '80's.
The produce man from Cana, VA Mike Hawks seen here showing off the underneath of  his John Deere Green "Country Mouse" Vega. He can tell you about a Farm mishap with the guard rail on one of those wild wheel stands. This photo is for the Rooster!
I'm counting the days to the upcoming Shriner's Drag Racing & Hot Rod Expo January 21-22, 2011 at the Greensboro Coliseum. It's the mid winter break we need to get us pumped up for the 2011 racing season. Also, will inductee four new members into the North Carolina Drag Racing Hall of Fame. They will include former southern style Pro Stock ace "Slammin" Sammy Carroll, Mr. Shoebox" Charles Carpenter, Ronnie "the Shoe" Hood and the "Professor" the late Steve Taylor. Make your plans to attend the ceremonies on Saturday, January 22, at 1:30 PM. We'll also salute our 2010 Inductees Mike Boyles, Gene Fulton, Elmer Trett, Jeff Taylor and Rickie Smith. Hopefully the weather this year will be a little more warmer and drier.

The Function Is Still On This Saturday @ MJ Printing in K-Ville

If you haven't been re informed. My annual Christmas Function and Chicken Stew will be held again this Saturday, December 18th at my PRINT SHOP in Kernersvllle, NC.  I had earlier moved it to the "Game Room" at Farmington. Then I realized the fact my mom and other folks that don't need to be that far away from the house that late isn't cool. So I've moved it back to the print shop. I apologize for the the mix up. Everything gets started around 5 PM. It's what i call a floating deal. Just float in for a second or hour to say hi. Get something to eat or just talk or look at pictures. It's All Good and Everyone and Anyone is invited to stop in...who knows we may have a free shirt of too.
Thanks and everyone have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a better New Year!
MJ

Remember The Day.......there not forgotten on Fridays

 You may know this man from dragraceresults.com as Mike Hawks. This former Farmington Dragway champion from Cana, VA (via Yadkinville, NC) grew up drag racing. He's probably drove as many cars as Deat Buckner has owned......and that's alot. Seen hear back in day running Hot Rod with his Odie's Speed Wagon. I would have to say that was one of more favorite Hawks owned cars. The John Deere Vega was cool too.
 The fastest moving man on two feet...Alvin Dilldine has long been a main stay in the world of local drag racing. This Tennessee wild man loved horsepower a long time ago, moving to High Point/Thomasville he has raced a little of everything in his forty plus years. But Alvin is probably know more for his announcing as he has been calling races since the getting his start at Piedmont Dragway. He tickled me at at Carolina Coalition race at Rockingham. Where a bunch of drag racers having good time got a little too loud and hah kept a working guy up. Needless to say I have no clue who that group was....but anyway......Alvin got on the PA in his straight but racer style of announcing and said "he hoped all those folks live long and all their badies are born naked".  That's what make Alvin's style of announcing different he knows what racers are up to, in a car in the pits and where.....cause he's a racer.  Hope to see Alvin and Linda at my function on Saturday. Promise we want keep any neighbor's up...lol
You know what I have always loved about DRAG RACING...? Is that it doesn't discriminate against anyone or any car. For some reason I've always like the VW. It's bodied lines, to the wild paint schemes have always been cool to me. Plus the fact they shouldn't being going that fast has always set they apart, but then not, it's drag racing. Jerry and Terry Cornatzer seen here at Rockingham's IHRA National event running then MODIFIED was long time Farmington racers. Jerry, driver of the HumBug from Mocksville, NC cut his teeth in the early '80's racing weekly with brother Terry's famed "HUMBUG" VW. They gave the NC Hall of Fame member Gene Fulton heck back in the day too. They had defeated the former IHRA Modified World Champion Fulton in the finals of a IHRA Pro Am at Piedmont that sent out the word VW power is for real.  The legend on the HunBug lives on know with David Cornatzer, whose dad Terry past away a few years ago. You can still see the "HumBug" racing at select SEVWA events at Farmington and Piedmont. You can go to www.SEVWA.com for event information.
 You know at this time of Christmas and all the giving that goes on....it never stops at a DRAG  RACE. You say....your crazy...yeah. but think of all the times in DRAG RACING that other competitors have gone out of their way to help the fellow racer. I've send times when our weekly racers would take new racers in and make them fill welcome. It could be from just pointing out the goods and bads of a track to just coming up and saying "Hi" and Welcome to the Farm, or the Dirty Mo or anywhere.  The late Bobby Tilley, winner of the Farm's First Pro Drag Series championship back in 1980,  seen here working on a guys Ford. Is an good of example of fellow racer lending a helping hand when they could. Bobby's son Chad Tilley has gone on to win bracket and Big Dog races.
I guess that's why I've aways been glad to be apart of should a great social group that call their selves DRAG RACERS.

PRI Recap: World Challenge + New Racing Caliper Preview

The StopTech crew is back from Florida. Another Professional Racing Industry (PRI) trade show is in the books. The annual event is billed as the busiest professional race marketplace on Earth, and by all reports they are right.

StopTech set up shop at event once again, which should come as no surprise considering the company's unyielding dedication and success in the production-based racing vehicle circles.

This year StopTech rolled in with a big piece of news plus an early look at an underground project that is coming to fruition.

First up was the news that StopTech has been named the Official Brake System of the World Challenge Championships. The World Challenge races are not only fan favorites but are a true proving ground for production based racing cars. The StopTech World Challenge Porsche GT3 Cup Car has been a regular fixture on the series for several years, plus teams such as GMG Racing, find their way to the winner circle on StopTech brakes.

Visitors to StopTech's PRI booth got their first look at the StopTech GT Racing Caliper, which made an underground debut last week to rave reviews at the 25 Hours of Thunderhill. An official announcement about this enduro-focused addition to the growing StopTech racing product line is expected early in the new year.

Quick 8 Mad Dawg Warriors On the Move for 2011

News in from the "We Fly Together" race team is that the two time Mooresville Mad Dawg winning Chevrolet Corvette has been sold. The "Rock" says there is a new Camaro in the works....more to come.
Charles and Tracy Terrell broke into the "THREE SECOND ZONE" recently at a Quick 8 at Coastal Plains with their supercharged Ford Mustang. That was also in legal Piedmont Big Dog weight. This could be interesting come the first dog race April of 2011.

The husband and wife Mad/Big Dog team of Jamie and Ghia Chappell are in a rock and a hard spot going into 2011. Their ex-Pro Stock Pontiac built by Stroupe Race Cars was a good tenth behind the competition last year with their 632 Albert built motor. Jamie is looking to either step up to a BIGGER motor or drop back to the Renegade class. The new Piedmont weight rules favorite the bigger cubes in 2011?!?

Let the Bench Racing Begin!

It's that time of the year....to "Bench Race" and reflect back on 2010. As we grow older there is fewer young people getting into the world of local drag racing. Main reason is MONEY, but secondly we haven't changed the way we've bracket race in over thirty years. I hate that word "Bracket", see we need to change that to fit modern times. We haven't bracketed (put cars on a ladder) at Farmington or Mooresville in over twenty some years........anyway.  ET Dial-in racing was started to make it FAIR for all to be competitive. It's the only motorsports class that doesn't discriminate against your money, skin, sex or really anything. So as we get ready for 2011...another decade...let's try to put or minds together and help promote what is a dying sport in Drag Racing.......Handicap drag racing.
 The Farmington Dragway Banquet is scheduled for Saturday, January 15, 2011 at the Village Inn in Clemmons, NC its a RSVP deal. Contach Sandy Collins at 336-465-1018 to get your tickets. They'll salute the 2010 Farmington Track Champions, and hand out special awards. Plus they'll have a super picture presontaaion and "Bad Brad" the DJ will be back to play all the music.
