In the September 6th edition of Spencer Lewis’ Short Track Notebook, we profile Brandon Watson’s upcoming start in the NASCAR K&N East Series, Matt Barton’s return to the OSCAAR Modified Tour and Scott McTeer’s Velocity weekend plans as well as video interviews with Sunset’s Herb Walters and Barrie’s Mike Gettliffe.

Current OSCAAR Super Late Model point leader Brandon Watson has announced he will make his NASCAR K&N East Series debut on September 21st at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Watson last appeared at NHMS at the 2009 ‘ACT Invitational’, logging a head-turning 3rd place performance after leading much of the race’s early stages. The Stayner, ON driver will campaign a car normally piloted by Vermont driver Steven Legendre, prepared out of Dave Blaney’s North Carolina shop. Watson’s family-run operation will test with the car at Motor Mile Speedway in Fairlawn, VA next week in preparation for September 21st’s ‘North American Power 100’. The team will be holding a fundraiser for their trip on September 13th at the Shrine Hall in Barrie, all are welcomed to attend. Despite the excitement of readying for his first career K&N East Series start, Brandon will be back in action with the OSCAAR Super Late Model tour this Saturday (September 7th) at Flamboro Speedway.


2013 Sauble Speedway Ltd. Late Model champion Scott McTeer (above, by TW Robarts Photography) has announced he will compete at Sunset Speedway’s Velocity 250 weekend on September 28th & 29th. The Tiverton, ON driver has acquired the same engine that Dwayne Baker utilized to win the 2012 Autumn Colours Classic, and is confident that switching to a crate engine from his traditional built power-plant will give him the advantage he’s been missing at Sunset. McTeer has won at Sunset in Super Stock competition, but will enter the Velocity weekend in search of his first career LLM triumph at the Innisfil, ON 1/3 mile. The Sauble titlist will compete alongside a who’s-who of Ltd. Late Model royalty, including Sunset championship contenders Mike ‘Lights Out’ Bentley and Stompin’ Tom Walters, 7-time Sunset champion ‘Mr. Excitement’ Chris Morrow and 2012 Autumn Colours Classic champion Dwayne Baker.


Fan favourite OSCAAR Modified Tour contender ‘The New Hamburg Nightmare’ Matt Barton (above, by Thompson Photography) has confirmed he will be back with the tour at Flamboro Speedway this Saturday (September 7th). The sophomore driver has competed part-time with the upstart organization this season, suffering a multitude of mechanical problems along the way. Barton will return to Flamboro for the first time in 6 seasons, after winning a Hurricane Midgets event at the speedway in 2007. The MDB Racecars house driver will compete alongside reigning champion Gary McLean, multi-time winner Brent McLean, popular sophomore Davey Terry and the rest of the tour regulars, as he continues to search for his first career tour victory.
