MARFC Members were treated to a discounted admission for the “Brad 100” that was run on August 16, 2012 with the JEGS/CRA All Star Tour at the Auto City Speedway. It was a spectacular night of racing in spite of the threatening skies all around and the predictions of rain. Track owners/promoters Joe DeWitte and Sharon Fischer didn’t let that stop them and the show went on as planned. Guest of honor was Rochester Hills native and leading NASCAR Sprint Cup Driver Brad Keselowski who was on hand to sign autographs, give pace car rides, and wave the initial green flag. MARFC was invited to take part in the festivities and to help honor Brad for his accomplishments. A “Special Recognition Award” was presented to Brad by MARFC President, Dave DeHem while the Veterans in attendance gathered around.

The club had a great night of racing at the I-96 Speedway on Saturday August 25th with at least 20 members sign in at the membership table and more in attendance for Season Championship night. Zack Olger, driver of the #0 Late Model was the MARFC Helmet Bag recipient while Jason Snelenberger won the fan club drawing. Zach Olger also clinched the I-96 Modified championship that night as well piloting the 0x Modified. Board Member Denny Trinklien manned the membership table with help from Barry Meschke and Peggy Mackey. A great big Thank You to track owners/promoters Mike & Sarah Mouch for working with the club to get this date in from our earlier rained out effort last spring. Also a big Thank You to track P.A. Announcer Matt “Hollywood” Prieur and Renee House-Thomas for the many plugs for the club and all the help they gave as well and we look forward to 2013 and a return to the I-96 Speedway.
