June 23rd saw the club make its way to the center of the state and a full program at the Springport Motor Speedway. Club members were not only treated to a fantastic night of racing that also saw a vintage race car show on the race track as well as a MARFC Social/Pot-Luck/Picnic prior to the night’s races. We had a great turnout for this event with some really great tasting dishes that were passed around. The club provided the Burgers-n-Dogs while the Speedway provided the ambience and facility. If you missed it you missed some really good food and some great bench racing before a night of competitive stock car racing. The recipient of the MARFC Helmet Bag was the racing team of George Speer and Shane Wright, drivers of the #3 and #8 ABC Stock Cars. These two drivers work on their cars together and share one 
trailer to get back and forth to the races which means two trips each way to the Speedway. These two share everything for their race cars and we are sure that they will put the MARFC Helmet bag to good use. The MARFC Member prize winner was Michelle Spraque while table helpers were Al Peltier and Dave DeHem. Many thanks go out to Jeff and Pam Parish and the staff of the Springport Motor Speedway for hosting the club and providing a great venue for our Social/Pot Luck/Picnic.

The club went to Flat Rock’s Sister track, The Toledo Speedway on the 22nd of June. The MARFC Helmet Bag was presented to Matt Bunting, driver of the #19 Street Stock for his and his families long time support of both Speedways. MARFC Member prize winner was Iris Anton. Many thanks to Ron Drager, Scott Schultz and the staff at both speedways, especially Track announcer Gary Lindahl for all of his plugs for the club both nights. Table helpers at Toledo were Jeff Horan, Paul Anton, and Bob Ryder.
