IT'S A FAMILY THING...

O NO...
Word from Shane(-O-Mac) Greene's car owner is that he will be running for the 2012 Oxford Networks Late Model championship. However, if he does not perform up to expectations, the infamous message board member Brother Joseph may take over. As a last resort, they may look to Missy Morgan to fill the seat. (12/30/11)
SHUR IS...

SCALING BACK A BIT...
Long-time Oxford Networks Late Model competitor, Corey Morgan, will be scaling his 2012 efforts back just a bit. After running a few Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Strictly Stock races at the end of 2011 with great success, Morgan has decided to turn his attention to the division full time in 2012 in hopes of that elusive championship. Don't worry though, he still plans to bring the Late Model out to play a few times. (12/02/11)
2 WHEELS WEREN'T ENOUGH...
Apparently 2 wheels on the ground weren't enough for Nic Skillings. The former dirt bike racer ran a limited schedule in 2011 to keep his Rookie status and will be back in the Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Mini Stock division next year. (12/02/11)
CHANGING THINGS UP...
After running a Monte Carlo in 2011, Sue Veinott will be changing things up and running an '84 Camaro for the 2012 campaign in the Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Ladies division. (12/02/11)
MORR, MORR, MORRIS???
The former #61 Toyota Celica Mini Stock Championship winning car driven by Chris Morris has made it full circle back to the Morris family. Ron Morris is currently updating the car. Plans are tentative of what will be the car's role next season... A backup for the Morris brothers? Will Ron campaign the car himself? All that's known for certain is that Morris Family Racing has already asked to reserve the #63 Mini Stock for 2012... (11/29/11)
