In the August 7th edition of Spencer Lewis’ Short Track Notebook, we catch up with 2-time Barrie Speedway Ltd. Late Model champion Gord Shepherd, current Sunset Speedway Mini Stock point leader Brandon McFerran, Thunder Car heavyweight Shawn Chenoweth and 13-year old third-generation star Jake Watson.

We recently had the opportunity to speak with Barrie Speedway Ltd. Late Model point leader Gord ‘The Smoke’ Shepherd. The Oro-Station, ON driver currently sits atop the Barrie Speedway points with a slim lead over multi-time Mosport Speedway titlist Dwight Brown. Shepherd chats about his championship aspirations, his bouts of hard luck this season and the one race win he covets more than any other. Click here for the video and follow Gord on Twitter @GordShepherd10.


‘The Astronaut’ Brandon McFerran (above, by Debbie-Jo Zardo) currently finds himself on a 4-race win streak in the Mini Stock division at Sunset Speedway. The 15-year old leads the division points, and is en route to his first career stock car championship. We chatted with the Acton, ON driver post-race at Sunset this weekend and asked about his recent hot streak, his partnership with setup guru Tim Ellas, the short track racing learning process and how he hopes to end his 2014 campaign.

Pro Late Model champion turned Thunder Car front runner Shawn Chenoweth recently claimed victory at Sauble Speedway’s ‘Dash for Cash Invitational’. We had the chance to catch up with ‘The Mastodon’ post-race and asked about his 2014 season, the progress of his London Recreational Racing-backed Thunder Car program, his re-entry into Super Late Model competition and more.
