Opening Night At Flat Rock Speedway 2013

Jeremy Vanderhoof and the #6 car won the 20 Lap Figure-8 Race

     Flat Rock Speedway kicked off another season last Saturday, and the Mitten State Sports Report was there for all the action.  Mother nature was cooperative, providing a pleasant evening for late April racing.  The action began with a 50 lap Late Model race won by Dakota Carlson and the #8 car.  Carlson lead the entire way in a race that was ran clean and accident free.  Officials did have to stop the race during the Figure-8 heaps, and during the Street Stock 25 lap race to fix problems with the asphalt.  The Late Model 50 lap race did not experience any of these delays.
     The Street Stock drivers took the stage next for a 25 lap race that started in broad day light, and ended under the lights of Flat Rock Speedway.  Rob Moore and the # 82 car lead the entire race, and eventually took home the checkered flag.  Asphalt repairs, crashes, and spin outs, occurred during the street stock race, and one driver experienced a smoke filled car that followed a loud pop.  The delays did not take away from the excitement however, as fans used the opportunity to walk around, and utilize the refreshment stands.
     The "Motor City Mad Men, and One Crazy Lady" came out to a loud cheer from the crowd, as the Figure-8 races are a staple main event at Flat Rock Speedway.  The 20 lap race capped off the night with several close calls, and plenty of heart pounding moments.  Jeremy Vanderhoof and the #6 car took home the checkered flag in a race that he controlled from the get go.  Vanderhoof won his eleventh (all time) Figure-8 Race at Flat Rock Speedway currently placing him seventeenth all time in Figure-8 race wins at Flat Rock Speedway.  Bill Early and the #9 car finished in third place on Saturday night, and is currently in fifteenth place (all time) with eleven Figure-8 Race victories at Flat Rock Speedway.  Bob Studt holds the record at Flat Rock Speedway for most all time Figure-8 Race victories.  Studt accumulated a total of 115 victories.
