We were invited to Colorado National Speedway by General Manager Scotty Backman  to cover for TV. Scotty graciously gave us a ride in his golf cart as we video’d driver interviews. Fans and drivers seem to love it. We’ll let you be the judge. Below is a recap of the night.

A Clean Sweep for Bear Lynch in the Spring Fling at CNS

From CNS News Desk:

Saturday, 16 April 2011 Bear Lynch led every lap of the Sportsman main event to take the win as well as taking home the top spot in the Pro Truck main event for a clean sweep of the Spring Fling at CNS.

Pair-A-Dice Interior Finishes Sportsman
A stellar field of 18 Sportsman cars rolled out on to the track to headline the CNS Spring Fling with car number 26 Bear Lynch and 84 Bruce Borchardt on the front row. Bear Lynch built a commanding lead with two thirds of the race complete but Bruce Borchadt was not letting Bear out of his sights. As the leaders approached lapped traffic car Borchardt was able to catch the leader Bear Lynch but Bear wasn’t about to give up his chance to win another main event and he hung on to win followed by 84 Borchardt, 6 Roe, 8 Walbaum, and Stan Griffin in the 43 machine rounded out the top five.

Snap-On Tools Pro Trucks
Only 10 Pro Trucks lined up for a 30 lap main event and after just 3 laps the “Pebble” Matt Burton was smoking heavily in the #36 truck which may have been the cause for #5 Troy Wittar spinning and hitting the wall hard in turn one. Troy was OK but a huge cleanup was in order. The Jing Daddy Motorsports trucks of 32 Mark Neff and teammate 26 Bear Lynch owned the top two spots when the race resumed but last weeks winner 07 Chris Leaf was in hot pursuit. At the halfway point Bear Lynch in the 26 Truck had found his way to the front and Roger Avants was pressuring Neff for second. At the checkered flag it was 26 Bear Lynch grabbing the trophy followed by 32 Mark Neff, 27 Roger Avants, 34 Rudy Vanderwal and 07 Chris Leaf rounding out the top 5.

NTC Logistics Super Stocks
19 Super Stocks lined up to take the green flag in the NTC Logistics Super Stock division, Harry Livermore Jr. led lap one in the 23 car followed closely by Jack Nugent in the 39 car. At the halfway point Jack Nugent overtook Livermore Jr. and grabbed a commanding lead of the race. Super Stock 39 Nugent maintained his lead and won his second straight Super Stock main event by 10 car lengths over 23 Harry Livermore Jr. and newcomer John Humphrey in the nice looking 61 car.

Sunoco Modifieds
Anticipation filled the air for this event because for the first time ever the CARC Mod Coupes and the Grand American Modifieds were combined to race as one division. In the heat races Jace Hansen in the 08 GAM took heat number one while Gary Land in the 55 Mod Coupe took heat number two which setup a great showdown in the main event. After the halfway point Jace Hansen in the 08 GAM modified had a huge lead but broke down and left the track with 5 laps remaining. Mike Castagno in the 22 Grand American Modified ran a smooth and steady race and took the win while Chad Guilford in the 24 mod coupe finished 2nd and therefore won the mod coupe division.

A Comfort Shack Figure 8s
Big Al Duran and Joe Matlock paced the field for the start of the 20 lap Figure 8 main event. On the first lap car number 17 Harry Livermore Jr spun and collected several cars in a spectacular crash. 28 Vic Johnson, 03 Luke Zike, 15 J. Wall, 10 Brandon Drieling, 17 Harry Livermore Jr., and 5 Dennis Summers all sustained damage thankfully all the drivers were uninjured. At the halfway mark Big Al had a slight lead on Matlock while Luke Zike thrilled the fans with several near misses in the “X”. #23 Big Al Duran was able to hold off #4 Joe Matlock to take the win.

CAPE RACE, N.F., April 15. — The White Star liner Olympic reports by wireless this evening that the Cunarder Carpathia reached, at daybreak this morning, the position from which wireless calls for help were sent out last night by the Titanic after her collision with an iceberg. The Carpathia found only the lifeboats and the wreckage of what had been the biggest steamship afloat.

The Titanic had foundered at about 2:20 A.M., in latitude 41:46 north and longitude 50:14 west. This is about 30 minutes of latitude, or about 34 miles, due south of the position at which she struck the iceberg. All her boats are accounted for and about 655 souls have been saved of the crew and passengers, most of the latter presumably women and children. There were about 1,200 persons aboard the Titanic.

The Leyland liner California is remaining and searching the position of the disaster, while the Carpathia is returning to New York with the survivors.

It can be positively stated that up to 11 o’clock to-night nothing whatever had been received at or heard by the Marconi station here to the effect that the Parisian, Virginian or any other ships had picked up any survivors, other than those picked up by the Carpathia.

First News of the Disaster.

The first news of the disaster to the Titanic was received by the Marconi wireless station here at 10:25 o’clock last night (as told in yesterday’s New York Times.) The Titanic was first heard giving the distress signal “C. Q. D.,” which was answered by a number of ships, including the Carpathia, the Baltic and the Olympic. The Titanic said she had struck an iceberg and was in immediate need of assistance, giving her position as latitude 41:46 north and longitude 50:14 west.

At 10:55 o’clock the Titanic reported she was sinking by the head, and at 11:25 o’clock the station here established communication with the Allan liner Virginian, from Halifax to Liverpool, and notified her of the Titanic’s urgent need of assistance and gave her the Titanic’s position.

The Virginian advised the Marconi station almost immediately that she was proceeding toward the scene of the disaster.

At 11:36 o’clock the Titanic informed the Olympic that they were putting the women off in boats and instructed the Olympic to have her boats read to transfer the passangers.

The Titanic, during all this time, continued to give distress signals and to announce her position.

The wireless operator seemed absolutely cool and clear-headed, his sending throughout being steady and perfectly formed, and the judgment used by him was of the best.

The last signals heard from the Titanic were received at 12:27 A.M., when the Virginian reported having heard a few blurred signals which ended abruptly.

The largest passenger steamship in the world, the Olympic-class RMS Titanic was owned by the White Star Line and constructed at theHarland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland. She set sail for New York City on 10 April 1912 with 2,223 people on board. The high casualty rate resulting from the sinking was due in part to the fact that, although complying with the regulations of the time, the ship carried lifeboats for only 1,178 people. A disproportionate number of men died due to the “women and children first” protocol that was enforced by the ship’s crew.

Titanic was designed by experienced engineers, using some of the most advanced technologies and extensive safety features of the time. Adding to the ironic nature of the tragedy is the fact that the liner sank on her maiden voyage. The high loss of life, the media frenzy overTitanic‘s famous victims, the legends about the sinking, the resulting changes in maritime law, and the discovery of the wreck have all

RMS Titanic was a passenger liner that struck an iceberg on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York City, and sank on 15 April 1912. She hit the iceberg four days into the crossing, at 23:40 on 14 April 1912, and sank at 2:20 the following morning, resulting in the deaths of 1,517 people in one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history.

Want to be a Summer Organizer for President Obama???

2012

Next year, President Obama will join thousands of other Democrats on ballots in all 50 states.

These next 19 months will provide some of the best opportunities for community organizing that this movement has ever seen — and we’re looking for a few more folks to join the Summer Organizer Program and take the lead.

From June 4th to August 6th, summer organizers will help lay the groundwork for 2012 across the country, planning events, registering voters, and building neighborhood teams.

These organizers are the future leaders of this movement — will you be one of them?

If you haven’t already, apply here by Monday, April 18th, or pass this message along to anyone else who might be interested.

If selected, you’ll hit the ground running with top-notch training to learn how to recruit new volunteers, manage resources wisely, and run an efficient operation.

Then you’ll get to work in the states. Maybe you’ll run a local strategy session in Philadelphia. Maybe you’ll register voters at a concert in Las Vegas. Maybe you’ll empower a supporter to become a team leader in Dallas.

Or maybe you’ll help fire up a big crowd before the President takes the stage.

No experience is necessary, and anyone can apply — but you need to do so by midnight on Monday, April 18th:

See you out there,
