ARRA is thrilled to have our website back to full operation!  We urge anyone who may find some minor glitches to contact us at the email address down below.  Restoring the website was a long and arduous process and along the way...there is chance that something was keyed in wrong.  Hey, we are human here at ARRA and humans make mistakes.  Thank you for your patience while we worked to get it back and thank you in advance for informing us of any little problems.

  While the members of ARRA have done their own personal research and compilations and can with a definite degree of confidence - back the information in their efforts with certainty to be complete and accurate...there is always the chance of a missing statistic due to our research sources.  They are compiled to the best of our ability and to the limits of our research material.  The original intent of this website was to feature our research work alone.  However, we have also included research material from sources outside of our own work...in an effort to become the "one stop historical database shop".  With that in mind, we cannot extend the same level of confidence in that work as we have in our own work....simply because we didn't do the work ourselves.  That is not in an effort to cast doubt on the reliability of others work....simply to point out that it is the work of others who have done the research and it was simply our choice to include it on our website.  We welcome getting notified of any inconsistencies and omissions in any of the work and will take each inquiry to task and try to look it up and resolve the issue.  It's all about the facts and adding to the documented history of our local sport.

Undoubtedly my proudest moment in my life long involvement in auto racing!  From the age of five years old...local dirt track racing fascinated me.....took a hold of me and pressed a lifelong choke hold on my choice for personal entertainment and an outlet for my desire to share my thoughts and ideas and contribute back to the sport that I so have loved since that five year old kid attended his first race at the Flemington Speedway with his Pop Pop!  Above...my original compadrie in this research stuff....Bill Braga Jr. joins me in celebrating my Media Excellence award at the Hall of Fame ceremony.    Shane Andrews throws some questions my way when my award was being highlighted.  Andy Fusco will always be there looking over his award recipients on the wall at the Hall of Fame in Weedsport, NY.  I am in some fine company!  And the plaque that will commemorate the night and always remind of of the honor bestowed upon me!  What an evening!  Thanks to Buffy Swanson, the magician that makes all of this happen in a timely and classy fashion and the entire staff of the Northeast Dirt Modified Museum and Hall of Fame!  I am deeply appreciative!

The four original founding members of the ARRA group gather at a Flemington Speedway Historical Society meeting.  Bill Braga Jr., Steve Barrick, Bill Hanna and Fred Voorhees all get together for the first time as a group.  Missing is later added founding member Bill Skinner.
