Independance day is just a little over 2 weeks away, but the summer heat has already begun. With almost 2 months of racing completed in the 2009 season, Chad finds himself in the middle of a tough point battle at both Merrittville and Ransomville Speedways. This weekend will see autograph night at Ransomville friday, and $1 hotdog night at the Merrittville Speedway saturday. Then, as if that isn't enough pressure, the big dawgs are coming to eat on July 3rd with the Advance Auto Parts Big Block tour stop at the Ransomville oval. One of the two biggest races of the year is upon us and is shaping up to be a great night out for both the race fan and the family. In anticipation for this night the Brachmann team has "tried some new changes in the past few weeks" and feel that they are as good as anyone on any give night, while looking forward to the challenge that the series always presents. It was just a year ago when a tangle in the heat race would force them to the consolation race, where they eventually broke and missed the feature for this same show. This year "will be a whole different ballgame" according to the crew, as they prepare for a stretch in the season that will make or break their points battles and championship aspirations. Make sure you take advantage of this great weather and enjoy some great racing, and dont forget to stop by the car on autograph night for your autographed hero card, and talk with Chad about his season so far. Thats all for now, we'll see you, in victory lane. |

Chad and the Mighty Taco number 3 team have set their sights on Ransomville Speedway tonight with one thing in mind, 2 wins. With a washed out feature from a week ago, as well as tonights feature to run, 2 wins would close the gap between CB3 and points leader Todd Burley. Last saturday, the Merrittville Speedway hosted a sprint car show that gave the modifieds the week off, so there has been a little extra preparation put into tonights events, with the expectations of lap leading finishes. So, get yourself out to the Ransomville Speedway tonight and check out your local dirt track and support grass roots hometown hero's. New Mighty Taco CB3 racing t shirts are available at the trailer, so be sure to stop by after the races and check out the new apparel. Racing starts at 7:15 and the weather looks absolutely gorgeous for this evening. |

After a few promising finishes this past week, and a big race coming up this monday, CB3 and the team look to Canandaigua Speedway and the Land of Legends tonight for a tune up. Its with an off night at the Merrittville Speedway that a decision was made to take the Mighty Taco big block for a tour, on a track that was once their saturday night home. Last week, Chad drove to a 5th place finish at the Ransomville Speedway on friday night with a heat win. Saturday night at Merrittville, he drove from the middle of the pack to a third place finish, and feels that the car was much better off the corners than the week before. Still looking for his first win of the season, Chad stated last night that "we're going to tow up tomorrow and see what we have. I would like to try some things that we've been talking about all winter". Dont forget, this monday you can catch the Brachmann Racing team again at the Merrittville oval for twin 50 lap events, a Lucas Oil Shootout race and the culmination of the 358 Modified Super Dirtcar Series race that began on April 25th. |

It was a bright sunny day, southern breeze, fresh paint, new sponsors and fifty three of the best 358 Modified drivers from the Northeast. It seemed like a dream, cue the black clouds and wet rain. As CB3 and the team looked to start this years 358 Super Dirtcar Series with a win, they began the evening exactly the way they imagined. The Mighty Taco Modified was fast, fast enough to time fourth fastest overall, first in their heat, leading to an eventual heat win that would put CB3 into the redraw. Chad would draw starting position 10, of the 10 available, and then mother nature pulled the plug. The rains came, and despite many attempts to run in the track, the weather was too much for track officials to handle, and with that came an early trip home. Earlier in the night, the only 3 cars faster in time trials were all less than a one hudredth of a second quicker than CB3 and with a home track advantage and the defence of his track championship to begin, Chad was indeed ready, to take on any and all challengers. However, he will need to carry that enthusiasm with him for a few weeks as the race was re-scheduled to May 18th, and will be half the distance of green flag laps. Fans will be treated to a 50 lap SDS make-up race, and a second 50 lap Lucas Oil Shootout event on the same night. Ticket stubs from April 25th will be honored for a $3 discount on admission, so keep those dry and safe. On tap this week, are a pair of official season openers at both the Ransomville and Merrittville Speedways friday and saturday, we hope to see you all in victory lane. |
