The Dream at Eldora

00:06:20
Speaker

00:06:33
Speaker
um Tony Stewart, big NASCAR racer, now NHRA, top alcohol dragster, he owns the track and stuff, and they've been putting this race on for years. And some guys I grew up around and stuff,
00:06:48
Speaker
The next generation's been carrying it on. Donnie Moran's kid, Devin Moran and stuff, and all them. Devin had a decent weekend. He had some motor issues.
00:07:01
Speaker
But big shout out to Jonathan Davenport, the first man ever in dream history to win it three years in a row.
00:07:10
Speaker
From posts I've seen on Facebook and stuff, everybody said it was an amazing weekend that I know that went to it and stuff and seen pictures and everything. But yeah, they had a great weekend. And then also this weekend for the motorsports side, they started the technically the official kickoff for the Ohio State Truck and Tractor Pulling Association.

Ohio State Truck and Tractor Pulling

00:07:32
Speaker
um They had a big two-day event up at Dragway 42 in West Salem, Ohio. It's north of me from my hometown here. And they did a two-day event.
00:07:46
Speaker
Congratulations to all the winners in that class and people I know that went and pulled and stuff and ones that had some bad luck that I, I know personally, um, hopefully i get it figured out. You guys got a busy schedule. There's 23 more hooks this season. I seen on the schedule. So, um, unfortunately one of, one of the good, one of the guys I know, um, had a very bad mishap, uh, a line, fuel line, let go and everything else. And is in the middle of the pool and is caught on fire and everything else. Um,
00:08:18
Speaker
you guys are watching on Facebook and stuff, send a prayer out for him. He got away with no burns and stuff. His safety equipment did what it needed, but they're in the process of repairing everything and stuff on his truck.
00:08:33
Speaker
It's Jeff Barker. He used to have extreme tech ATV and stuff in Morrow County in Mount Gate, Ohio. um Yeah, he had a mishap going through poles and caught the truck front of the truck on fire and stuff. Hopefully he gets it back together and everything and Continues with the season

Revitalizing Mansfield Motor Speedway

00:08:50
Speaker
and stuff. so But, yeah, other than that, I mean, seems like the last two or three weekends that I've been gone, i've been kind of keeping up with it with the busy schedule I have.
00:09:00
Speaker
A lot of local people have been doing good. um News broke this last week. Former NASCAR owner, actually, Medina, Ohio, used to live in Medina, Ohio, resident, just bought an old dirt track up north from me called Mansfield Motor Speedway.
00:09:19
Speaker
i And he's going to revitalize it and bring dirt track racing and stuff back to the Mansfield area, which I think is awesome. um They used to be an asphalt track. They held NASCAR races, stuff like that.
00:09:31
Speaker
His plans within the next five, ten years, he said, hopefully it'll be I want him to keep it dirt, but he wants to pave it and everything else and bring NASCAR races and stuff and big red like road course races and everything back up there. But we'll see what happens. But yeah, so one of the let One of the local tracks that got closed down is getting opened back up. um Excited for that. ah But, yeah, they
00:10:00
Speaker
the the dream of videos I've seen from fans and stuff on there back to the Eldora race, man, there was a lot of good racing, lot of tight racing and everything else. and Made for one amazing weekend, especially for the final day.
00:10:18
Speaker
When Davenport won, he actually came came from third place and everything else and took it with the last, like I think, eight laps, they said, and ended up getting the lead and everything and won. And like I said, he's the only man to do it three years in a row.
00:10:32
Speaker
So that's a historic feat for himself. But, yeah, this summer is going to be โ€“ it's got a busy schedule and everything else and stuff keeping up on and some events the family and I are going to try to make one if we can. But, yeah.
00:10:47
