Rich,
Thanks for helping me relive memories from the 60's. On a side note you are missing picture perfect weather for this years running of the Oswego Classic. Doug Didero has the pole.
Safe racing,

Patti,
You bet, the weather at Oswego is going to be super.
Doug Didero is a 'hot shoe' by all means. Go! Otto Sitterly, hey what can I say, I have been a fan of his for a long while. And, Indy vet and open wheel great Davey Hamilton in John Nicotra's other supermod - a potent racing team indeed.
Have a good day at the Oswego Classic
Keep me posted on the days events up that way in ole' Oswego
Thanks, Rich

Rich, you called it the Nicotra team certainly was potent with Otto and Davey then they added Bobby Santos to the team, putting Davey in the newly acquired Extreme Chassis. Sitterly made his move pass Didero on lap 160 for the lead and never looked back. Didero and Davey ran 2nd and 3rd until lap 199 when the two came together in turn 1. Doug was able to continue however Hamilton's car was damaged and he ended up 10th. This crash extented the race by seven laps. Otto Sitterly certainly dominated at Oswego this year, 2009 Oswego Speedway Supermodified Track Champion and his first Budweiser International Classic victory.
You needed to be there to see the smiles on Otto and John's faces, although I didn't get to see the race I did get to see them both about a half hour after the race. They were just beaming!!!!
I did manage to see a replay of a good portion of the race last night at Pinner's.
Timmy Jedrzejek had a good weekend winning Friday nights Winged Super Nationals and filling in for Todd Stowell in the Classic finishing sixth in a car he had never driven before.
Race of Champion's this weekend for the modifieds and Oswego Speedways season is over for another year.
Safe racing,
Patti
