New Link Added to Links Page

Been doing some tweaking here and there and added a link to Hooson Motorsports. Mr. Hooson is working hard at putting a NASCAR Craftsman Truck team together and just recently launched this new website. Still at the 'new' stage but looks good so far!

Pictures Page Update

From this past week-end at Delaware. Also of note is an article in the London Free Press about Delaware's plans for track improvements.

Delaware OSS Labour Day

It was a love hate week-end at Delaware Speedway. The car was good right off the trailer. Kevin managed to pinch enough pennies to buy four new tires and we qualified 10th. The car was responding well to changes and things looked good for the first 50. After driving the car into 5/6th, the rear-end began smoking and we were black flagged. Repairs were made for the second 50 and once again Kevin drove the car towards the front only to have the gear let go this time. The problem was apparently not overcome and this ended the day for us. Sure would be nice to have a little luck go our way one of these races, just to see where the car can run.

It looks like our season is done at this point, unless we can find some funding for the Peterborough event in two weeks.

OSS race Labour Day @ Delaware Speedway

Trevellin Motorsports is looking for a marketing partner for the OSS race at Delaware Speedway on Labour Day week-end. For less than you may think, we can give your company 'Primary' locations on the car. We're looking to cover our costs for that week-end and create a relationship that may grow in the future. If you think you would be interested, or always thought it would be out of reach, give Kevin a call, you may be pleasently surprised!

Berlin Raceway

Three of us headed to the ARCA race at Berlin Raceway in Marne Michigan this past Saturday to give the #24 of Mike Harmon a helping hand. It was a long day for us as we didn't stay overnight.

The 24 car didn't get a chance to practice very much due to a throwout bearing failure that took most of practice to replace. We did get a chance to make some adjustments, but just didn't have a chance to get the car where it needed to be. Mike went out and qualified 19th.

Kevin was destined to be spotter for this event and did a fine job by all accounts. Mike asked him to talk slower once or twice(guess that 'accent' issue goes both ways!) but was happy overall. The car got 'doinked' in the Left Rear during an accordian deal but was in good shape otherwise, finishing in 18th.

At the end of the night, Mike stated it was not the worst car he's driven, but it certainly wasn't good, and wished he could have turned more practice laps. Our understanding is he's off to Pocono for next week-end and we wish the team good luck, maybe some of us will make it to that race as well......

ARCA Pics Added

Posted eight of our pics from the ARCA weekend, enjoy!

OSS Race-Peterborough

We pulled into Peterborough Speedway at 2:00PM for the one day event to bright, sunny skies. When the car hit the track for first practice, it was apparent we had a loose off condition to fix and by the end of second practice, we were confident the car would be good in race conditions.

Kevin went out first for qualifying and had problems on the first lap which affected his second, putting us 12th of 16. The car had been faster during last practice so we weren't too concerned with this result.

We started the first 50 on the outside of Row 6 and after the 3 quick cautions in the first 10laps, we restarted in 8th(WooHoo). We were running 6/7th when the car started to go away. Apparently, we had some work to do for the second 50.

We made three changes to the car and started the second 50 on the inside. Unlike the first, this race stayed green up to lap 26. At that point, running 8th, we had lost track position getting around slower cars, and were in danger of losing a lap. With the caution tightening the field, we were looking forward to picking up some more positions when the skies opened up, and ended the race.

A great day of racing for us. This car is a couple years old and our first ever in-house front clip. We're finally getting a chance to see what it's like on the track. The car responded well to changes but we need to tweak the setup a little to get some more speed out of it.

Special thanks go out to Gary Leitch, One Yard At A Time and LA Collision.
