Watermelons for WaterBoy?

January 25, 2012 10:00 pm (Continuous Blog Until January 31st)

Well, here we go again! WaterBoy will be waking up in approximately 4 hours and flying the friendly skies to the quaint little town of Cordele, Ga in pursuit of High Adventure with the Paragon Racing Team. I won't go into the details of how this trip came about or even the ficticious reasons why I was invited to rejoin the Paragon team, but I will say that I literally jumped at the chance to share this adventure with our good friends, the Jones family. It was even suggested to me that I write a blog of our travels and adventure so I will do my best to keep all of our Michigan family informed of our progress.

2012 Rules Now Available

Just in time for the Christmas Season, the rules are now available for the 2012 season at the historic Owosso Speedway. Fast Track Promotions look forward to seeing everyone’s cars at the opening of the 2012 season, and finalizations to the 2012 schedule are being put in place as of this writing.

The rules are located under the “Track Info” link in the right hand box of the website.

These are the OFFICIAL rules for the 2012 Season, because we can amend them on the website. If any amendments are made, we will let you know and you can print them off and attach them to the hard copy you may have purchased at the 2011 Awards Banquet.

If you would still like to purchase a hard copy rulebook, there are a few still available for $2. If you are interested call Rick at (810) 965-6698

Smith, Laney, Basalone, Cords and Slagle Crowned Champions

Owosso Speedway’s Erik Jones teams with Venturini Motorsports for 2012

15 year old Erik Jones of Byron, Michigan has signed on to make seven starts in the ARCA Racing Series Presented by Menards for the 2012 racing season with the Venturini Motorsports team.

Jones is scheduled to make his debut on May 20, 2012 in the Toledo ARCA 200 at the Toledo Speedway. Jones will follow up the Toledo race with the events at the Winchester (IN) Speedway, Iowa Speedway, Lucas Oil (IN) Raceway, Mobile (AL) International Speedway and Madison (WI) International Speedway. Due to age restrictions, Jones cannot compete on a track larger than 1-mile until after his 18^th birthday.

Where are we Going?

March 23, 2011 - On June 24^th 2008, Greg Tunnicliff wrote an article in the Flint Journal that was entitled; “Owosso track hoping for Miracle with new owners”. Fast Track Promotion Inc was not real excited about the article because we felt that it cast a negative light on the past history of the track and it didn’t do much to instill optimism and enthusiasm for the future. Co-owners Jeff and Pam Parish, Jennie and myself had just spent months planning and organizing our business and we were very enthusiastic about our plans and our commitment to the race track and the community.
