tate is definately a gasser. the moves on the outside on front stretch was definately breathtaking

Tate's a great kid from a great family. He has very little seat time in a full midget on dirt. He has raced a full midget on pavement on occasion. I would love to see Tate get more full midget starts on dirt!

Way to go, kid!

I didn't get a chance to mention Tate in my first post, but his ride on the high side was incredible. I know when the push truck got behind Tate to restart him after the flip a big cheer went up in the crowd. Don, at Montpelier alone, gave three guys new to Midget racing a shot that they may not have ever received otherwise. Tate certainly took no prisoners with his shot and turned a lot of heads!

We want to sincerely thank everyone for their support last night, and throughout the season. We know it is tough to support a new series with the uncertainties that surround it, but we hope you felt like we gave you a good place to race, followed rules, treated everyone fairly, and followed through with everything we said we would do. We certainly worked hard at it.

At the end of our season, we will survey where we are at with the series, again look from input from car owners and drivers, etc...

Feel free to PM me or email me (bemcevoy@yahoo.com) with any questions or comments, and I will get back with you.

Isn't it crazy how he just keeps getting better with time. Congrats on the good run back through the field. Hope he get to run that car some more.

SETracing had an awesome time at the track Saturday. Wish we coulda got the 52 refired after the 2nd red but we will build on last weekends event and get ready for next time. Looking forward to coming back to Montpelier Motor Speedway. It was fun to race against national cars and run competively.

My son Alex drives the 3E minisprint – to be honest, I thought we’d make the drive from Columbus, Ohio once, say we ran against midgets on a full-sized track, and that would be it. However, we had a blast, met some great people, found we could run competitively, and decided to come back as often as we could. So despite the logistical challenges of Alex off to school at Miami University, plans to participate in the Hewitt the next night, etc., there was no way we would miss the Montpelier’s midget season finale. I’m proud as heck with the job Alex did, running 5th most of the feature and just getting edged by Tate at the checkered. Thanks to Lynsey Tilton and Joe Ligouri for their efforts to promote the series, and the help they provided to all the competitors – congrats to Lynsey on her points championship. To Brian and the staff at Montpelier, thanks for making us feel welcome, and all your efforts to support midget racing, regardless what engine is under the hood.
