just got word from the top that we're back for what I believe to be 8 races in 2009. Thanks to the track for giving us a second chance. If you have a LM, please bring it out in 2009 for these shows.:):):):):)

Thanks for all involved if this is true... Riverhead has never made an official announcement one way or another yet ... I guess time will tell.... My car is 85% ready to go ....... Hopefully, I can finish the other 15% if and when this becomes official.....Artie

First off, I would like to thank the Cromarty's and the management of Riverhead Raceway, Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! As a member of the "Late Model Nation", we appreciate the opportunity to compete at our 'home track' of Riverhead Raceway for the 2009 season. Hopefully, we will be able to come back strong for 2009 with better car counts and better racing for the upcoming season.
Hey all of you LM competitors who have left the raceway in recent years because of disputes amongst ourselves and the officials, now is the time to step up and let all of your past issues be put aside so that we can prove to one and all, that the Late Model division does deserve this second chance that we have been given.

Thankfully cooler heads prevailed and things were handled in an adult manner or we wouldn't be seeing these end results.

I'm sure Roger and his tireless efforts to help the division had a lot to do with this!

Good luck to all the Late Model teams in 2009.

I'm glad to see the Late Models added to the 2009 schedule. :applause:
Maybe between them and the SK's if they do run, could split the 20 race schedule, maybe even run a Sunday show or 2.

I received this great news from Mark Tooker while I was covering the N/S Shootout, and it made my weekend even better.
A big thanks to track management for giving this chance to one of the best divisions to appear once again for the entertainment of Late Model fans all across the Island. :)

I believe a lot of thanks should go to Jim at Unique Golf as well.
I think his professionalism had a lot to do with the powers at be keeping us around.

Any word on the Qualifying/Race procedures?

I think you'd see more cars if T.T. were used
