NASCAR quick hits
Some observations as the NASCAR season comes to a close.
- Kyle Busch will never win a Championship until he grows up.
- His brother was lucky to win in 2004
- Kasey Kane is the next Dale Jr.
- There will be short fields next year
- I hope Denny Halmin wins the Championship. Anybody but Johnson....and Gordon.
- I am a new Clint Bowyer fan, RCR is back...finally.
- The racing is good, the tv coverage is awful. Which is truely amazing because there was never a pre-race or post-race show 15 years ago.
- The Nationwide Series (I still want to call it Busch) is in trouble.
- I still follow it and know what is happening...but I don't watch every race like I use too. Maybe because I would rather be racing....LOL
Be safe and keep it on the road.

2010 Waterford Hills Award Winners
These are the non-championship awards given out each year at the Waterford Hills Banquet. TF American Racing decided to skip this year's banquet to save some cash for the injured racecar, a wedding, and a Saturn that decided to break bolts and smash valves. Ahhh...life.
Congrats to the winners
Lynn Bertin - Presidents Award
Lynn seems to always be the first to the track and at every event, a race or an open track day. The Leader of all the corner workers, she is one reason that Waterford Hills is a great place to be and keep us drivers safe. I do remember when she was racing herself, in a white SSB #11 Neon.
Eunice Lucas-Logan - Female Enthusiast
I had the pleasure of working with Eunice during the August Open Track Day at Waterford Hills. She knew her stuff and did it all with a smile. You can find her behind the wheel of her Miata...just not on the track.
The late Bill Gamalski - Male Enthusiast
Bill had enthusiasm like no other. He was a racer too. He passed away last December unexpectedly. He has been missed by many.
Liz Hammond - Rookie of the Year
Liz might just start kicking my butt on a regular basis next year in her SM/ITS Miata (Note as much as it pains me...Miatas go faster then Mustangs at Waterford Hills). Always a great qualifier and a smooth predictable racer. She always had the right attitude and had a smile on her face as well. Her crew (Dad and husband) kept the Miata in tip top shape and Liz will be pushing those leaders soon.
Vern Roberts - Sportsmen of the Year
I am not sure what I can say about Vern. Vern is a sportsman, a gentleman and a great asset to Waterford Hills. He had a health scare earlier this year, but he is a determined guy and was back racing in no time. It has been a pleasure to get to know Vern more and more this year working on the BoD and at racing events. He even made sure I felt welcome traveling to Mid-Ohio for the first time earlier this year. A place he really enjoys.
Dave Cordier - Gary Taylor Memorial Trophy
Note, I know that October was light on the posts but TF American Racing is committed to keeping you updated. During the off season check in about once a week. There is a lot to talk about, even in the off season.
God Bless, and keep it on the road.
