    Another case of if someone wins more than his fellow racers he musy be cheating. Michale Bauer is a talanted racer who arrives at the race track prepaired. Out drives most of his rivals and is a gentleman. Sportsmans speedways loss. In the long run its only a stepping stone any way.

Trumbull county court Dec. 8 2012 Judge Thomas Campbell ruled Fastrack must pay the $2,000 owed to Russel King also Russ King took a Forensic Assessment and Polygraph Examination by Holly Niotti-Soltesz  a Forensic Psychophysiologist that he past with indications of truthfulness greater than 98% that he was telling the truth when he denied in any way chemically altering or enhancing the tires used on that Memorial day.

  This is my last post on this subject to the nay sayers get a life.  Work hard all week drive hard on race day and win then people will find something wrong with how you win.

This matter of doping tires was taken to court and the decision was made in Kings favor Fastrak was made to pay prize money that due.

Two things have been going on since there has been racing, hand signals and people not liking when some one wins and they think the reason why is because they cheat. Go Kings looks like iys going to be a great year.

It's BACK TO THE FUTURE with Bio Based USA as they present the one and only Sandusky Speedway King of the Wings Open Wheel Extravaganza on Wednesday, July 16th. This will be the very first major event in many years to feature both the Supermodifieds and Sprint Cars running together. It’s a one-time event showcasing the fastest short track racers in the country. If you miss this one you will miss it forever. Finally the world will know which racecar is the fastest in competition.

We have received several calls with suggestions including an hour long very informative session with a car owner. The concerns were how much to win, what's the purse and let's talk about that tire rule.

The answers are that the winner of this event won't make as much as if he had won the Hi-Miler but it will be more than what an ISMA driver makes at a regular event. Here’s your purse: 1-$5000, 2-$3500, 3-$3000, 4-$2500, 5-$2000, 6-$1500, 7-$1250 and $1000 for 8th place back to 24th place.

The complete purse is rather stout due to the fact that if you make it to the feature you are guaranteed $1000. The only exception would be someone who decides to start and park the minute he gets the green. Remember this if you remember nothing else, unless you are involved in a major accident at the beginning of the race and can't continue you must make at least five competitive laps to get paid anything.

Then there is the tire rule. One racer wanted to run American Racer tires. That answer is NO! The traditional tire for both Sprints and Supers is Hoosier and that isn't changing. The whole idea is to keep costs down and buying eight tires for one race just doesn't cut it. With that in mind there will be a four tire rule. Along with that the Supermodifieds will use the MSA tire rule which is the same as all the other sanctioning bodies running Supers. The Sprints will conform to either the Auto Value and/or Buckeye Super Sprint tire rules.

So let’s make this simple, there will be NO weight rule, no left side rule, no wing rule, no engine rule and the only tech inspection is for safety.

There will be practice on Tuesday evening July 15th with old tires and then qualifying, heat races and a fifty lap Feature Event on Wednesday with four new tires.

There is no fuel stop for a 50-lap race but if a major incident stops the show for a while the race will go red. Remember, any rule made must benefit the Supers and the Sprints equally.

There was a question about show-up money. Yes, not a lot but enough so you don't go home broke. Remember, we pay with cash immediately after the show.
