What a season so far here at “America’s Favor-
ite Home Track”. From the better than average fan base to the “Gut Wrenching, Edge of Your Seat Racing”, 2011 has been a year to remember. It looks like the changes General Manager Tim Bryant has made were good decisions for both the fans and racers. I never thought any of us would ever witness another Demo Derby but leave it to the Bryant family for proving me wrong…again. And what a good one it was! With 7 cars it was still one of the best Demo Derby’s ever. Congratulations to my ole buddy Ronnie Smith on his $1,500 victory. Smith stated that he is the Master of Destruction so this felt just right to him. Photos of all 7 drivers are inside. Did you notice one driver was in a Mercedes?
Also congratulations to Commissioner Gene
Valentino on his victory in the Celebrity Race to bene-fit United Cerebral Palsy. Over $2,200.00 was raised and many thanks to all who donated. More on page 3.

Escambia Commissioner Gene Valentino after winning the 8 lap annual Celebrity Race declared, “United Cerebral Palsy is the real winner.” And UCP did indeed win big. Over $2,200 raised. $1,250 from the fans at the speedway. Commissioner Wilson Robertson, who finished behind Valentino, made good his wager of a $500 donation to UCP if he lost to Valentino.
Valentino matched the amount. Lindsay Marie led several laps, but was involved in a crash on the last turn of the last lap. The field included the sheriffs from Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties, David Morgan and Wendell Hall; broadcasters Jim Sanborn of WCOA, Kevin Peterson of Soft Rock 94; Re-ese Andrews from Cat Country, and Lindsey Marie of WXBM; plus the 2 commissioners.
Celeb Race for UCP
The return of a Demolition Derby was met with overwhelming fan approval 2 weeks ago. Ronnie Smith had the last car running and took home the $1,500 check. The runners up are shown below. So, would you like to see another Demo Derby in 2012? Would you like to drive in one? Let us know. Congratulations all 7 daring drivers.
