Even Mother Nature was a sweet Mom on this Saturday. While She teased with some cloud and a few light sprinkles in the early afternoon, in the end She let us play to the conclusion.

We’re going to try some NEW things for Barrie Speedway this year. One of the ideas we are going to work with is a weekly video recap, titled GREEN, WHITE, CHECKER with DAVE BRADLEY.

BSW Track Announcer Dave Bradley will give brief rundown of the nights racing and we will have some special features, driver profiles and other cool stuff at various times during the 2012 race season.

They are posted on YouTube under mikecableguyphotos

Here is the first, of what we hope to be many, GREEN, WHITE, CHECKER with DAVE BRADLEY.

What a Great Start to the 2012 race season at Barrie Speedway. Mother Nature provided us with some nice weather and even a SUPERMOON, couldn’t “crash” the party, as All the drivers behaved themselves and saved their equipment.

Speaking of Equipment, Do the cars ever look good with all that fresh paint and stickers. Even a few New Numbers.

Dave Lewis is sporting the Number 33 on His Limited Late Model this season… His reason.

33 years ago (1979), He brought his 1st car to the track and it was Number… 33. He also has The Tragically Hip on the car for much of the season. Congratulations Dave and Here’s to another 33 years.

The whine of an engine could be heard at Barrie Speedway this week… Is it Race Season Yet?

Not Quite… It was Daytona 200 competitor #86 Ben Young turning a few laps for a segment of Rogers TV’s SCS Simcoe County Sports with Hosts Cam Brown and Craig Ripley.

The 2012 Race season quickly approaches and the signs are in the air.

First off NASCAR kicked off the season with the 2012 version of the Daytona 500, which saw a bizarre crash with #42 of Juan Pablo Montoya, trying to catch up to the rest of the pack while under caution, breaking and taking out a Jet-Dryer in a Fireball. Barrie Speedways own Rick Hurst was there to witness the crash.

Then the great weather we had in March got everyone thinking racing locally. Barrie Speedway visited the Bayfield Mall with a small sampler of cars from all 3 NASCAR Whelen All American Series.

Joan & I would like to Thank… Mark Dilley, Linda Jones, Steve Slaughter and the Ownership group for providing the Central Ontario region with a premiere racing facility for both Drivers & Fans alike.

We would also like to thank the Drivers and Staff for providing an entertaining and exciting Show each and every night, but mostly, Thank You to the Fans for supporting local racing at the Grassroots level, without them, none of this would be possible.

We have had an amazing last 2 seasons, but it is time for us to move on. We wish all continued success and we will visit our Sunset Friends when we have a chance.

It was a Spectacular End to a Great Summer of racing at Sunset Speedway. Cars were in every Corner, Nook & Cranny. The weather co-operated and proved that when She was a Race Fan, Mother Nature could be very Nice indeed.

Congratulations to All our Competitors on making the Velocity Weekend a HUGE Success. Have A Safe & Happy Off-Season.
