Our winter season started off with a bang! We had 76 cars for the 724th Fundraiser race. What a great turnout! Lots of great racing, the competition was awesome. This is also our first year with allowing the brushless systems. They don\'t seem to be any quicker than the brushed system. In  fact you have to dramatically change your gearing. We\'ll see what the verdict is at the end of the season. We all should thank Bonnie for manning the food table all day. She did a great job. How can you beat taco in a bag?!?! Of course we have our weekly club race, but stay tuned for info on the New Years Rumble in January and the State On Road Champs in March.

    Time for another update. The season has started, a little later than we and hoped. Between getting the new track completed and mother nature dumping rain on us it took a little longer than expected. The new facilities are awesome! Big pit lane, longer drivers stand (and covered), heated/air conditioned scoring booth, tons of lighting,... plus many more features!! We have some events scheduled for the summer, Monster Truck Mayhem, Proctor Fair Frenzy, Chill on The Hill to name a few. Please check our forums for more info.

    We\'ll another winter racing season has gone by. We  had a great turnout all season long. Once again we have to thank the 724th for the use of their facility, we wouldn\'t have a place to run if it wasn\'t for them. We started the season off with the 724th Fundraiser race. We ended up donating over $400 to the Family Fund for the 724th families. The next big race was the News Years Rumble. We made it a two day event this year to accommodate the large number of racers we expected. We weren\'t disappointed! It was another tropical themed race, lots of people in shorts and brightly colored shirts. Great racing all weekend, lots of fun! If you want to check some pictures from that race, you can view them here. The other big event that kind of fell into our laps was the World of Wheels Race, better known as the Minnesota State On-road Champs. This was put together on very short notice. We had to get everything lined up with the DECC and World of Wheels car show. Not only that we had to haul all of our equipment from the armory in Superior over to the DECC. Thanks goes out to all of you that helped! We had a great turnout, just as many if not more then the News Years Rumble race. Another great weekend of racing! Many thanks goes out to the people that have made this last year of racing as successful as it was, thank you! You can also see some pictures from the State Champs weekend here

    On to the summer season. As all of you know we had to move our dirt track to a new location for this up coming race season. The sad part s we lost our awesome view, great news is out track will be bigger and better! The construction of the track has begun. Our new 40\' drivers stand is in place and ready to be painted, track borders up also needing painting. The lights and electrical are going in this weekend. This will be a first rate race facility!! The race dates aren\'t set for the season, so make sure to check the forums often.

    Sorry about the lateness of this update. To get you up to speed we have moved to our new web host. Things took a little bit longer than anticipated but all worked out in the end. That gave us the flexibility to add a picture gallery for the club members to use along with the ability to host video files. Along with the move we gained tremendous amounts of bandwidth. When we had some busy months we would actually exceed our bandwidth a few days before it would reset. No forum access for days...arrghh!!! With our new host even with all the picture uploads, streaming video...we've only used at max about 4% of our monthly bandwidth. Way nice!

    On to the summer.....All I can say is wow!!!! This summer was largest so far. Average car total was 60 cars a night!!! Up from the 35 we used to get years ago. With a fairly dry summer, we only lost 2 race nights to mother nature, and of those 2 nights we at least got some racing in before getting rained out. We had a good turnout for the Heavy Metal Mayhem on September 17th. Everyone wanted to get some practice before the big end of the year race......Chill on The Hill! Chill on The Hill.........what a weekend! Racing starts on a Friday night and doesn't stop until Sunday night. Many long nights were put in. The Chill was held in conjunction with the Minnesota Traveling Points Series which made that weekend the biggest race of the year. For the Chill race on Saturday we had over 170+ cars entered. That only dropped slightly on Sunday for the final race day for the Traveling Series, I believe the car count was in the 140's. There was some controversy about watering the track. It wasn't cold that weekend, but windy. The dust was pretty bad, but letting the track dry out and "blue groove" actually made the track have traction. We may have to try it again this next summer.

    Now I guess to the big news. We\'re moving!!! Most of you know this. During the summer Spirit Mt. had a change of heart. Apparently we didn't fit into their "big picture". As much as setting up and tearing down the track every year sucked, the view was killer! But Spirit Mt. misplacing our 3 year contract ; ) and some of the griping going on it was for the best. So on to the good news. We're moving!!!!!! Our new home will be not that much further away. Proctor Speedway/Fairgrounds will be it. Gary has already secured a 5yr contract with the Fair board. Things are moving fast ...power has been run to the track, light poles positions have been marked and will more then likely be put in before the snow flies! We may also have a bigger and better drivers stand for next year. How does a 40' drivers stand sound? The area we have set aside for just the track is 150'x200'. The potential is huge! I BIG thank you goes out to Gary for getting us into our new home. Definitely couldn't have done it without him! Also Dan for finding a transportation for all the dirt Spirit Mt. gave us. Not to mention all the other people that help tear down the track and move it to the Proctor Track at the end of the year. Thank you!!!!

    The end of racing in the summer doesn't spell the end of racing for us. Our carpet season started November 12th and kicked it off with the 724th Fundraiser.  We had a great turnout! 71 cars for our first race of the year.  All proceeds of that event went to the Family Fund of the troops. That money will help put on Family events for the troops, plus it is our way to show our appreciation for letting us use their facility. This winter looks as promising as last year. You can get our schedule of events here or by checking our event calendar. See you at the track!

We are currently moving our website to a new host. Hopefully this will only take a few days to do. So please bear with us.

If haven't herd yet, the outdoor season has started!!! We've had a pretty good turnout so far, with an average of 45 cars a night. We expect the to go over the next few weeks. If your not sure what we're about please swing by and check us out! Also I have available for download the video that Venture North did on us late last summer. You can view that here. For our race schedule please go here. Also the Minnesota Traveling Series is under way, you can view the race schedule here, or their website here.
