024 By Rob Hinckley

SATSUMA, FL (April 11) – “I saw him. He was right there.”

But that was as close as Corey Crews would let Paul Snyder get. The rush of Crews’ first ever Modified feature win overcame a sputtering car the last handful of laps and propelled him to the Putnam County Speedway Winners Circle Saturday evening.

“This is great,” Crews said in the Winners Circle. “My very first win.” (more…)

Dutilly beats long-time nemesis for Desoto win

jesse Dutilly by Scott Lockwood

For the last several years Bradenton’s Jesse Dutilly has been trying to beat Anthony Campi in a head-to-head battle for a race victory at Desoto Speedway.

Using a brand new car in Saturday’s Brighthouse Challenge Series 100-lap Super Late Model event, Dutilly finally got the leg up on his chief rival. The defending series and track champion drove from deep in the field and got the best of Campi on a late restart to take his first victory of the season.

The Alabama Gang Invades Southwest Florida

When you mention the “Alabama Gang”, you automatically think of the Allison’s, Neil Bonnett and Red Farmer. But after Saturday night at Three Palms Speedway in Punta Gorda, Florida, you have to add Joey Sims. He grew up in Alabama with Davey and Clifford Allison. He has since relocated to S outhwest Florida and now calls Fort Myers, Florida home.

After not racing in almost 20 years, Sims came out of retirement and set fast time in the Sportsman class at Three Palms Speedway in Punta Gorda, Florida. He then went out and wired the field in the main event. Punta Gorda’s own Rick Reed finished second. Randy Sober was third. Mike Kohut in his MDK Pro Flooring Chevrolet was fourth.

Coulter Pro-Truck Series Shuts Down due to health of series director

This is a quote from Rick Bristol
“I am heart broken and so sorry that I cannot continue to run the series. I have always put many things before my health and it has gotten the best of me. I have tried to battle through this once again but I have a family and a new grandson that need me and my health has to be my focus now. I am sorry to the drivers, crews, tracks and the fans that have supported us this last year and three races. Please know I care so much about racing and specially the truck series and its people. I ask you to please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I try to get my health in order. I am thankful for the friendships and relationships built along these many years I have been in racing, they are what matter most to me in all of this. There will be those that will bash after this decision made by myself and Joey Coulter, that comes with the territory but those that know me and know how much it meant to me know this is one of the hardest things I have ever done. Joey got involved with this because I asked him to, and because he loved the trucks and how it helped him get started. As we talked these last days he made clear to me that if I was unable to run it, he choose we end it together. I again am sorry, and wish all the drivers, crews and tracks the best going forward. I hope to come around once in awhile to see everyone.
