Ardmore track management has cancelled all of their races for this weekend.  We will try to reschedule if we can find a date that works.

Mother nature doesn't want to race Sunday, 4/23/23.  Track and TMCCC officers have decided to postpone this race to 8/13/23.

One pager schedule on TMCCC events page has been updated.

The forecast for Sunday, 4/2/23, keeps worsening.  TMCCC President, Vice President, and Redline staff have decided to postpone this race.  The new date date for Race #3 at Redline Raceway will be 4/30/23 with an 8AM gate time.

Schedule is still subject to change but it has been posted on the TMCCC.org page under Events.

Points are up

Yesterday was a rough day.  Track had timing system issues first thing, then the weirdest clean up I've ever seen.  A muffler blew up and sprayed fiberglass all over the track.  Then it started misting during the first round of eliminations in Super Muscle.  Mother Nature won this one.

Race will pick up where we left off on the 8th of November.  No new entries will be accepted.  If you are unable to make it back, you will be given your bonus points for making the race if you qualify. 

I know there will be a few of you that cannot make it back on the 8th.  I apologize for the inconvenience, but the one thing we have no control over is the weather.

Keep your wristbands, they will be your way back in on the 8th.  The gate will also have a list of those that turned in tech cards, this will show if you were entered in more than one class.  Unfortunately the only way to get the spectators and pit crew back in will be to use their wristband.

If you were already eliminated and you are eligible for the Big Dog, you will not need to pay again on the 8th.  Just give them your wristband and let them know you are here for the Big Dog.  If you are eligible to run the Big Dog and did not make it yesterday (Oct 25th)  but can make it on November 8th, please get with me ASAP.  You will not be able to enter the races for the classes but you will be able to run the Big Dog.  

See everyone on November 8th at the Motorplex, gates at 8 AM!  

Martha is on vacation so I'm going post a quick update for yesterday and she will get the points tallied when she returns.

Good Morning Racers, It is with heavy heart that I write to you this morning, Ray passed away Saturday morning after a fight with cancer.   Ray was one of the founding members of the Texas Muscle Car Club Challenge and he helped keep it going for over 20 years.  His passion for racing was evident every time you had a conversation with him.  He was a great mentor on our team and has helped usher the new generation of racers into the sport, myself included.  He always had great advice and was a wealth of knowledge, specially on our finicky modular motors.  After one particularly rough race of mine a few years ago he said "Get out of your head and drive the damn car!" and it has stuck with me.  Like many of us, he made me a better racer.  We are going to miss that stubborn ole man! Services will be Saturday December 7th at 10 AM at the Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow Funeral Home in Allen.  In lieu of flowers the family has asked for toy donations =10pt(new, un-wrapped)=10pt to the AER Toy Drive happening the same day.  (This Toy Drive was near and dear to Ray's heart)  The team members at the banquet this past weekend have decided to use our winnings from our 3rd place finish ($75) this weekend to buy toys.  The Lake Cities Mopar (thank you Tim!) team kicked in $20 and the Dittmer's donated their door prize winnings ($50) to help get us a great donation.  If you would like to donate toys (new, un-wrapped) or to the toy fund please reach out to me via cell 817-821-7511 and we'll make arrangements.  I will load up the truck and take our donations to AER after the service. You can find out more info about the services from [url]h

The bad thing about Ardmore is the pit parking is mainly grass (unless they've made improvements since last year).  A big rain Saturday will make it a mess for Sunday.

The rain chances for Saturday are enough to make me cancel my hotel reservation, don't have the money to waste if we get rained out.  If we race I'll see everyone bright and early on 35W Sunday morning!

Super happy with the track.  The track was prepped nicely, the pits were concrete, and the restrooms were clean!  The track crew did a wonderful job!  I vote more races at Crandall!!!!
