POSTED 11-12-08 BILL SLADE TAKES THE CHECKER FLAG!

BILL SLADE 1959-2008
REST IN PEACE
__________________________________________________________________________
Last night at around 8:00 p.m. all of us Beech Bend Stock Car Driver lost a very special friend as Bill Slade took his very last lap with cancer. Bill fought a battle with cancer and was very brave. It all started, to the best of my knowledge around four years ago and then reoccurred again a few months ago. Bill had a last wish, it was to ride in a stock car around a track. Jay Parrish #79 took Bill for that last and only ride around the oval track of Beech Bend on a Monday evening. I believe that Bill is in a much better place now. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Slade family. May God bless and comfort you all is our prayer. From all the racers, race suppliers and race fans.

POSTED 11-11-08 TWO NEW POLLS

This is in no way to go against Beech Bend Raceway Park. This is only an unofficial Ballot Poll for the Open Wheel Modified Cars and the All-American Bomber Cars that are not on the official ballot. Repeat, This is for fun only! NO MONEY, NO TROPHY just plain old FUN. Look to the right and VOTE! This will be taken off Saturday Morning, November 22, 2008. Good Luck Racers!

POSTED 11-11-08 FACT OR RUMOR?

The rumor going around is that Dallas Jones has or is buying Highland Rim Speedway. The answer is FALSE. I talked to Dallas Jones today and he has confirmed that this is just a rumor and is NOT true. Beech Bend Raceway will be open for racing in 2009.
