The past few weeks Mike Plummer in the #35 car has been turning in Top 3 runs in the feature. Tim McMurtry in the #59 car has been speradic in trying to figure his car out. He has been high as 4th and low as 8th. His new car has been a real challenge for him to get a handle on.Hopefully this weekend will be good runs for both.They will be running at Dallas County Speedway this Saturday night.

Dallas County Speedway's quarter mile track proved to be a real challenge this week for McMurtry racing. Mike Plummer in the #35 Factory Stock won his Heat again! Tim McMurtry in#59 car finished his heat in 6th putting him deep in the field for the feature.#59 car could not get any bite. Mike in the #35 car started A Feature on the Pole and Tim#59 started in 12th.Mike plummer battled the feature in second place going for 1st ,when he was spun out by another car,with only two laps to go.Mean while Tim McMurtry battled a tight car with no rear bite. Mike got by Tim and was gaining ground fast.On the final lap Mike's car (struggling to find bite) spun again. Tim McMurtry finished 10th and Mike Plummer finished 12th.Both driver's where fighting tight conditions and no bite in the cars.The track was Super Dry Slick and made for a tough night. Gary Plummer #57 Bommer finiished 9th in his class.

Racing at Lucas Oil Speedway was very intresting,The Track was so Dry Slick that it was a Caution feast,and hard to get a Lap in without one.Tom Mapels of Mapels Ford #73, Mike Plummer # 35,and Tim McMurtry #59 ran respectable in the Factory Stock Feature. Tom Finished 12th,Mike 11th,and Tim in 10th.It took a lot of skill and work to drive a Track that slick.David Gemes in our # 16 ULMA Late Model came from the back to finish a very respectable 11th.David avoided some good wrecks with over aggessive drivers hitting him in the rear and then spinning out behind him.David drove a very smart race passing 3 cars on the last lap.He had been bolxed in most of the race,by slower cars.

David Gemes in our #16 ULMA Late Model, ran the high speed Track at the Missouri State Fair Speedway.The whole Team was present Pam Gemes,Mike Plummer and his wife Tiffany,Tim McMurtry,and Tom Maples of Maples Ford (One of our Sponsors), We met a lot of great people,Kenny Wallace from NASCAR,driving his Modified. David was looking good,eexcept a lot of drivers hiting our car. David drove a very smart race,with a lot of cautions and even red flags.David had moved up when a car spun in front of him,he stop barely touching the car,when another car came in a nailed David right in front part of the drivers door. It did major damage to the front end. David still had moved up to finish the race in a respectable 11th place.Thanks to Our sponsors,Maples Ford,Cliff's Towing and Recovery,and C-En Spots Farms.They make our racing possible.

Tim McMurtry driving #59 in Factory Stock. David Gemes was on the move, got up to 8th place, was moving forward, and a car spun right in front of him.

McMurtry Racing pick up new sponsor ship Cliff's Towing and Recovery and more sponsorship from Maples Ford. We also made a driver change in the Late Model. We had to let Kurt Sledd go after retaliating on another driver under the caution and, not living up to his agreement..We have a new driver David Gemes for the Late Model and it is now # 16. We had a great weekend of racing even though rain came in and cancelled out A Mods and Late Model Features. They will made up next week. We finished the which made iFactory Stock Feature as the rain began, It was a new experence. Tim McMuirtry and Tom Maples finished 7th and 10th respectably. We now have a big pit crew which made it a lot of fun. My special thanks to David Gemes and Tom Maples of Maples Ford ( The best place to buy a car or truck,I personally have bought 2 there), who have really made a difference.
