Fall races creates tight points battle...

With only race left (World 100 this Wednesday) before the holiday break, three racers are within ten points of each other at Redmen Raceway.  While the points standings reflects points before the three-drop rule, nevertheless it points to the making of one of the most competitive seasons at RR in quite some time.

Two "regular" shows closed out November.  On 11-14 Ryan Missler took the first two mains of the night (Mods, Sprints) and Randy Dickmann closed out the evening with a Late Model victory.

Fred can never catch a break...

I guess we need a higher pit fence...and he stuck the landing!
