Attn: all in the pits.  The Fairgrounds has required  that all quad riders must  wear a helmet.  No Two wheel or three wheel bikes allowed. 

   Just wanted to send a big thanks to everyone who helped me saturday to change my radiator. From realizing there was a hole to driving to my house pulling out a spare out of another car driving back and installing it it took us a little under an hour. That race deffinatly was one of survival and we proved why we are the best TEAM out there. Jefro and Jim Burnett, if it wasn't for you guys I probably wouldn't be where I am. Thanks guys, YOUR AWSOME!!!!          SC46        07/23/08

To all my friends and fans, Sorry to say, The Stauffacher Racing #5 Sprint car will not be back this season, due to the amount of bad luck throughout the season. We have  just received the damage report on our motor, (and the $$$$ amount needed to fix it) and we have come to the conclusion that we will not be able to finish off the season. Thanks to the Perkins for letting us rent the sprint the other night, we were hoping to have ours fixed in time, but now we know that’s not going to happen.  I would personally like to Thank all of my sponsors who have supported me , Professional Realty, ITI Performance Motorsports, Hesperia Hose Supply, Justice Brothers, and mainly  Betsy Miller.

Again, Sorry to miss out the rest of the season, but I will still be around the track with gear bag in hand!! LOL!!

Sincerely

Kris Stauffacher     07/23/08

Hello to all, This is Jeff Reed, I am in the process of bumping up to street stock with the car I was running in all American. As I do research it is very hard to find any set up information, I know the car is not ideal but it is what I have. I am looking for some basic information on set ups. I have also added a page to my website, www.stickittooyou.com for free set up information. If you would like to pass on information for beginners like me, please send me an email with the type of car, class you run and your set ups, if you don't want your name mentioned then let me know if you don't care I will post it. I appreciate any help I can get and I will forward it on to others. Thankyou

I want to thank my sister Cynthia Andrews for all the sweet tea, chimichangas, cheez its (they keep my driver happy) lol and all the other food and great deeds you do for us.

Hey Bryce, Way to Go dude!!  Prishmann was All Over you, but you held him off!!! Tim Congrats to you also Big Guy!! 3rd in the Mods. Great Night for the Thomas Fabrication Crew!!

  On a seperate note I'd like to give a shout out to Kevin Scott Street Stock #66. He sat out last night's racing so he could "Hang out, enjoy the races and have time to talk with his fellow competitors before he ships off to the Middle East."

  Kevin, you've been like a brother to me at the track and you will be sorely missed while your gone. GO GUARD!!! and God Bless Our Troops. Thanks for all you do for us Bro.

Kevin#33A   07/01/08

; to all racers, we have had a heck of a time getting feedback about tires as well as delivery delays so we made a new policy that should make everything smooth sailing.  All tire orders need to be made by the Monday of the race week.  We will then bring them to the track on the race day(s).  We only ask for your feedback to service your needs the best we can.  Please send email to ej@sportsracigfuel.com to suggest anything.  Thanks a lot in advance for the help.   07/01/08

As you may know you have a lot of inconsiderate people in the pits. (LOL)  Last year you put up "NO STANDING" signs and for a short time people didn't stand in front of the pit grandstands.  All but a couple of the signs have fallen down and people think they can stand in from of the people in the grandstands.  Maybe you could paint the poles on the sides and say no standing between the poles.  We all want to see our guys race!   07/01/08

HEY I CAN READ JUST FINE QUIT YELLIN AT ME.

   I just noticed when the Sprints race, the grader works the slop at the top into the bottom groove. Usually John runs the Grader, when the Sprints don't race, the grader doesn't run. When I saw Mike hanging on the Grader (first I have seen) I figured Mike was learning the Trick. I was applauding the effort. Didn't mean to be accusing.Sheesh. Some people take things so Negatively sometimes.

              HEY PATTI, I saw you too, I have trouble recognizing you out of your driving suit. My BAD!!

How about that Jeremy Queener finishing Mid-Pack in the Mini's driving a Sports Compact?? Congrats to Brian Fabbri I like watching you run!!

        Perkins Family,  sorry about my post bumping that letter to you down, sounds like you have a really cool operation going. Keep it Up!!

Take Care. Kevin                 06/26/08

My son, Chris Ennis, drove the Perkins prepared non winged 360 rental sprint car Saturday 6-21-08. I would like to personally thank the entire Perkins family of Bill, Will, and Kenny for their going out of their way to be great ambassadors for Victorville Speedway with their Sprint Car Rental Program. We normally run a modified at Bakersfield Speedway. Jeff Heusdens, my modified crew chief had a great time driving the rental 410 sprint car on Friday and then helping Will and Kenny on the car Saturday.

Bill Perkins did everything he said he would do and more. We are thoroughly impressed with the racing ethics of the Perkins Family. The three of them set the car up perfect for my son who have never drove a sprint car until then. Johnny and the other people in their pit were great in helping throughout the night. We could have not been more pleased and will continue to sound the horn for their program.

Again, I would like to say thanks to the Perkins Family for allowing my myself and my son to have one of the most memorable nights of our lives.   06/25/08

Kevin , I can assure you that the same attention is paid to the track on days that the sprints are not racing.  In case you didn't notice John didn't even race.  The differance is when the sprints race they pack the track better. 

Awsome Job Chuck!!!  Congrats on your win,  Kevin I passed right by you, duh, sorry I didn’t say hi.

Hey, Just wanted to say Saturday Night's Racing was pretty cool. The new announcer had me laughing with some of the wise ass comments he came out with. For those that do not know, RealFast.tv has covered a few of our races. It's nice to finally see some coverage of Local Dirt Track Racing.

  Congrats Heidi Tressler and Good Luck with the Nascar Testing!! WTG SuperChuck!!!!! Nice Run man. But tell me, WHO? was happier you or Jeffro?

 I thought the Best show was the Mini Figure-8's  I am not sure why exactly but I can't stop Laughing as you guys Race. It looks like so much fun!!!

P.S. HEY BOB, What do I gotta do to get a personal visit from you Down on the Track? HAHAHA, I've never seen a Starter get down off the Stand like that before. That was Hilarious.  MIKE Hope you were paying attention on the Grading John was doing. Seeing how he won't do it for us unless he is Racing. I don't blame him, I just hope you'll do it for us.

Thanks, Kevin Andrews #33A.    06/24/08

  If you saw the sprint cars turn one crash, May 31 (Jimmy Crawford and Alan Ballard you might want to log onto the video of it on YouTube channel Videosportz:  CRAWFORD SPRINT CAR CRASH.

  From Memorial Day Weekend racing, checkout the Videosportz feature on YouTube on Vuki Wilson (Minden, Nevada) and his sons. It's called VUKI'S PRIDE.  There are two features on Seth Wilson, and others upcoming on Kevin Andrews' Sweep, Brad Bennett, S/Sgt Kevin Scott, Ebeling Racing, and the Dwarf Sportsman champ, as well.

  Other drivers have contacted me after races about video, but I need to be contacted ahead of time.  Since the focus is on featured drivers, I need that lined up in advance.  Thanks to all who have inquired.

  Congratulations to Mike and Dena on the success of the Memorial  Day Weekend marathon, and the excellent show, May 31 (over forty sprint cars!).  Competition's tougher, racing's more exciting, programs have improved, and so will the crowds.  --Terry Kurtz (760) 953-9813

Great show last night!!!!!!!! The format is great!!!!!!!! Letting one of the top 8 qualifiers go to the back, for a chance to win $20,000. Also the 5 grand to win makes for a real racy show. I want this to be a very successful venue for you & hope to see it many times again. I almost missed the race, because I didn’t know anything about it. I was looking at Cory Kruseman’s web site & it said he was going to race at Victorville 5/31/08. This was about 5:00PM last night! I would like to offer a few suggestions.

(1) Better advertising.

(2) fix the sound system. It was so bad you couldn’t understand anything, anyone said.

(3) Have a live person sing the national anthem, like the girl that sang for the first sprint car race in April.

(4) Maybe start the races at 6:00 or 6:30PM, so there’s no conflict with curfew. If this race would have gone the full 40-laps, there probably would have been a different winner, as the track was changing fast & I’m sure some guys were set up to run the full 40-laps.

All in all, it was a very good show, great crowd, reasonably priced & great food at a fair price. Also the track preparation is the best, I’ve seen anywhere!!!!!!!!!

Good luck in the future & I hope to see many more USAC/CRA races in the high desert.

Sincerely,

Fred Kottman    06/01/08

Sue,

 Thank you for being concerned for our safety. It means a lot to us Drivers.

I agree somewhat with your post about Bob being inconsistant, However I must disagree about it being "His Fault".

  I believe it's up to us drivers to keep our eyes open on the Track. Bob throwing the Yellow isn't the first I see when there is a caution. What is more of a "Critical " issue is getting the Yellow Lights on. 9/10 times I see the Lights WAY before the Flag anyway.

  Either way, No one listens to Bob anyway (just ask him) LOL

George is Alright, I don't think i am alone when i say we look to him more often than not to find out What's going on.

Thanks Again Sue

And Hey what is this the "Patti Smith Rap Page" LOLOL       05/29/08

I go to the races almost every week and I don't think I have every seen a starter as negligent as Bob.  He is going to get someone killed.  The wreck involving Kris Stauffacher could have been avoided had he thrown the yellow.  The people sitting in the stands around me all had the same opinion.  I can understand why he waits before he throws the yellow with the cars that don't need to be pushed, but when a car is dead on the track and he doesn't throw the yellow immediately is beyond me.  That particular wreck started while 75 was exiting turn 4.

Bob is such an inconsistent starter it is irritating.  Someone may want to get him a copy of the rules.

The other issue is the George the flagman on the field.  He is going to get himself killed.  He runs in front of the cars waving the flag at the drivers. How safe is that??

I come to Victorville from Hemet  to watch these races because I have 4 family members in various classes, Sprints, modifieds, sport compacts, and all american.  I want them to be safe as well as the other racers on the field.

Patti#38   05/20/08

 Congrats! Kevin,  Thanks for thinking of my Dad, you're right  I think he was in that car with you, Im sure he is very proud.    Patti#38  05/13/08

Thanks Guys!!

  Talking on the Mic after the race is TOUGH!!! I forgot to mention a whole bunch of people. First and Foremost my Wife and Kids (yeah that was brilliant). I was looking at them for support while Thanking everyone and forgot to thank them!! Thanks Guys, I Love You!!

  As for Winning, It's not real tough to lose when you start from the front row. I kept waiting for Chris "Ted Nugent" Tooley to come up and take it from me, But seen on the Video he was held up in traffic. He has his car dialed in this year and It's going to be Tough to beat him on a Good Night. Good Luck Chris.

  Mr. Prishman. Thanks for racing me clean!! I saw your Nose and said "Uh-Oh" (censored BTW)Looking forward to Next Time.

  69,66,84 You Guys have Stepped it Up this Season. I should be proof that you need to Hang In There!!! It CAN Happen.

   JACKSON. Thanks for the Knowledge you've given me over the last couple years. I couldn't have gotten the car set-up with out it.

  Jim "J.J." Burnett mini #95...w/o You and your Crew, I wouldn't have made it to the first race. Anyone who'll will be up til 1 am working on someone else's car is Awesome in my Book. Thanks!!

  There are too many to list here....Otts Potts Crew, The Elderbaum Squad, Thomas Fabrication Crew, Queener Racing......

 Last but not Least, I'd like to Thank some people that I really Felt were with me, Protecting Me.

  My Lil' Grandma, Dale Smith Sr., and Danny Hamel, I thought of each one during the Last Caution, and truly believe they were there watching out for me.     Thanks Everyone!!!!    Respectfully Kevin Andrews #33A
