Re-cap of the Annual General Meeting and Registration
Day
A note from
JP and Flamboro Speedway - February 7, 2012 4:00pm
(edited Feb. 15, 4:00pm)
A strong
turn out for the 51st annual racing season at Hamilton's
asphalt arena, Flamboro Speedway, gathered at the Royal
Canadian Legion in Waterdown, Ontario for the Annual
General Meeting and Driver Registration day, held Sunday
February 5th. There was much anticipation after
meetings held in the fall, following the close of the
anniversary year, where rules and officiating were hot
topics of discussion. After weeks of speculation
and rumor the speedway announced the official decisions
for 2012 including: changes in personnel, changes to the
rules in all divisions, changes to the weekly handicap
and feature lineup, the debut of a new weekly class, the
debut of a new long weekend series, the debut of a new
sponsor partner, changes to weekly payouts and changes
to end of season rewards.

Schedule Sneak Peek, 2012
A note from
JP and Flamboro Speedway - January 25, 2012 6:00pm
While
details of the 2012 event schedule are yet to be
finalized and published, promoter John Casale has shared
some insights into the excitement that is expected to
fill Hamilton's asphalt arena this summer season.
The Grisdale Triple Crown Tournament for Late Model
racing will return for it's 10th anniversary, completing
a decade of providing the top tier grassroots
competition in southern Ontario. The G3 events are
scheduled for Saturday June 9, Saturday July 7, and
Saturday August 11, all with rain dates for the
following Sunday if needed.
Other
important dates shared are: Practice Day, April 14th;
Opening Day, April 21st featuring Thunder Cars and Mini
Stocks; and the first appearance of the Late
Models on April 28th. Casale has also shared that
all regular divisions (Lates, Thunders and Minis) will
have scheduled nights off through the year, and that
once again some of Ontario's top touring race groups
will fill those openings in the schedule. There is
also plans to announce a new Flamboro home division
(already leaked in the message board community), and
that this division may be joined by Thunder Cars and
other attractions to complete a Sunday program on the
summer long weekends (Victoria, Canada and Labour Day).

Supporting Businesses Who Support Grassroots Stock Car
Racing
A note from
Flamboro Speedway management
Sponsorship
has been a driving force of motorsport for decades.
From the beaches of Daytona, through the mountains of
Appalachia, and across the Great Lakes into southern
Ontario, it is with business investment and support that
stock car racing has grown into one of the largest and
most popular North American pastimes. Sponsors
help speedways to make facility improvements, provide
prizes and incentives for race teams and promote race
shows to eager fans and customers alike. Sponsors
help race cars get built, race teams get outfitted and
race programs to grow. As we enter our 51st
racing season we would like to thank all sponsors of
Flamboro Speedway racing for their ongoing support.
We will continue to do our part to raise awareness of
racing partnerships, and promote your business and
services.
Looking for
a business service? You can check out our
Partners
link for speedway partnerships. We have also
reported race team sponsors and web links with each
driver profile, available from the
Roster list,
under the Competition tab. And on race night,
don't forget to pickup your copy of the Race Night
Review - official
Souvenir Program of
Flamboro Speedway.
We ask you
Race Fans, to please help us support the partners who
support grassroots racing at your local speedway. |
