Scott Sroufe Shares His Last Few Weeks of Racing

Scott Sroufe

July 23rd
  We headed to Dakota State Fair Speedway.  I started 3rd in the heat race and was running third until I got moved out of the way in turn 3 with a couple of laps away and ended up with a 4th place finish.  We made a couple of small changes to the car for the feature.  They farmed the track right before we got onto the track, so the track was pretty hammer down fast.  I started 6th in the feature and made short work moving into 2nd place.  While running in second with about 5 laps remaining the guy running in 3rd was trying everything he could to get around me including bending in my rear bumper by about 4inches.  I ended up loosing the fight with a 3rd place finish.  The car was a little bit too tight to keep up with the leader.

Scott Sroufe Finishes 3rd at Dakota State Fair Speedway

Scott Sroufe

We headed to Dakota State Fair Speedway for night number 8 of the season.  I started off bad right off the bat and drew 196 out of 200 for my heat race starting position.  I started 9th in the heat race out of 10 cars.  I knew that with only 6 laps in the heat race, I had to get a good start.  I made my way up to 3rd by the 2nd lap and was catching the leaders.  I ended up with a 2nd place finish in the heat race.  We made another pan hard bar and shock change for the feature to keep up with the track conditions.  I got into the lineup for the feature and the track guys decided to rework the track from the bottom to the top.  I thought I was going to be in trouble with the newly reworked track.  I started 2nd in the feature and took the lead on the first lap and lead for 5-6 laps.  I was passed and moved into 2nd shortly after a yellow flag came out.  I chose the top side on the restart and was battling for 2nd for a couple more laps and another yellow flag came out.  I got a good restart, but didn't have the car to keep up with the top 2 guys.  I ended up side by side for 3rd and 4th coming across the finish line and just edged out the other guy for a 3rd place finish.

After Multiple Rain Delays, Scott Sroufe Hits the Track

Scott Sroufe

The start of the racing season has been a wet mess with 2 weekends canceling due to rain.  Finally after the 3rd weekend, I finally was able to make some laps at Dakota State Fair Speedway in Huron, SD on May 7th.  I fought an ill handling car all night but made it thru the night with a 12th place finish.  Sunday morning the car was unloaded into the shop to check everything over and the ill handling problem was found and fixed.  The rear end gears were changed, parts were greased and the car was loaded on the trailer.  I headed to Casino Speedway in Watertown, SD.  The night went a little better and we ended up with an 8th place finish for the night.  All in all it was a disappointing weekend, but I made it out of the weekend with only a little bit of sheet metal damage.

Change of Plans Puts Dirt Car in Car Show

Scott Sroufe

We were planing on kicking the season off at the car show and test and tune at Dakota State Fair Speedway in Huron, SD on April 16th, but do to weather conditions the event was canceled. 

So headed to the Casino Speedway car show in Watertown, SD on Sunday April 17th to debut the new car at the car show.  The car show was held at the Codington County Extension Building.  We had the Torchmate 2x2 on display for drivers, chassis builders and fans to check out and ask questions about.  We had a good time at the car show talking to other drivers after a long off season.  All the cars look good clean and straight, but we are itching to get on the track to sling some dirt!

We received some more disappointing news and the season opener at Dakota State Fair Speedway in Huron, SD that was scheduled April 23rd has been canceled due to the weather.  Our next scheduled event is re-scheduled season opener at Dakota State Fair Speedway in Huron, SD on April 30th.
