Over twenty (20) Sprints are expected tonight. Look for
several of them to be turning mid 14 second laps at well over 120 mph. Anyone who argues that you cannot flat-foot a race car around Five Flags needs to be present when qualifying takes place, because these boys will prove you wrong!!
Also on the card will be the always exciting Sportsman and Bomb-
ers. I think you fans will agree that there has not been a single week this year that the Sportsman races have been dull. The competition in this class is as good as you will find anywhere in the U.S. When the Super Late Model drivers stop what they are doing and climb atop their trailers to watch this class, then tell you that is some of the best racing they’ve seen at any track they visit, you know you are doing something right for the crowd. Now don’t leave early because I can guarantee you the Bombers will fill the air with some down home good racing as well.
Watch our Post Race results and discussions on BLAB-TV
Monday night at 8:00 pm. Until next time; be safe and enjoy the races.
Blue Angels at Beach; Winged Sprints at 5 Flags
Let’s talk about “Fast Machines with Wings”. Since this is the
Winged Weekend in Pensacola, I think it’s fitting that we talk about the Winged Warriors, which are packed with breath taking excite-ment. First, the Blue Angels will take to the air for their July show in front of their home crowd, based right here at NAS Pensacola. The Blues always take a little extra pride when performing at Pensacola Beach or at NAS showing their precision flying skills .
Now let’s move to another type of Winged Machines with dare
devil pilots. I’m speaking of the Tampa Bay Area Racing Association (TBARA) Winged Sprint Cars. These lightning fast cars are the featured event this evening at one of the world’s fastest ½ mile banked paved ovals.
Five Flags Speedway –America’s Favorite Home Track-has this one
and only date for the TBARA boys for 2011.

Two local drivers burning up the track this season are the most recent winners. Curtis Faircloth of Pace in the #7 Bomber has an impressive list of wins this season, and leads in the points at the season’s half way mark.
Brannon Fowler in the 00 Sports-men has worked his way to the top spot in that division with his win last race, ousting Jim Pokrant. Maybe we should say squeeking past Pokrant. The Fowler lead is by one point. The standings after each race are posted on our web site an hour after the final race is certified.
