The 2nd Annual Snowball Derby is right around the corner and it is shaping up to be an interesting race. All American 400 winner Josh Berry is entered, ASRS Truck Series and East Series Champion Jim Foose is entered, as well as gaggle of fierce competitors. Surpsingly, 2007 RPM Late Model Champion Skip Honaker has yet to enter as does Jeff Dillon, the champion in the Outlaw Paintshop All American Series in the Winter and Spring seasons, as well as being the current points leader for the Fall Series.
It will definetely be a show, be sure to get signed up soon!!! You don't want to miss out.

All American 400
Well the 10th Annual American 400 has come and gone, and it was not the best yet. We aren't even sure it is worth bringing back for 2008, but we plan to run it again in 2008, the 11th running of the event! It was sad to see the limited support the event was given by the ASRS members, and even worse the support it received from outside of the American Sim Racing Series membership. To call it a let down is an understatement, let's just say I am glad its over. On a positive note, the race was a far cry from the wreckfest that people expected. With GREEN FLAG pit stops in the RPM race, it was a pleasant surprise for all involved. Of the 400 laps, less than 50 were run under caution!!!
As for the week leading up to the All American 400, I experianced a rollercoaster ride, with a death in the family, removing an imposter from our server, dealing with the aftermath of that including several vulgar emails, threats and just plain rediculous claims and remarks, and then the All American 400, it was truely a wild ride. I guess the only positives of the whole week was I clinched my 2nd Craftsman Truck Series Championship at Phoenix, after a solid run, and then a win in the Super Truck 50 at Nashville to officially kick off the All American 400 weekend! It was truely a great time and I feel the company of all the members during that difficult time helped me get through it all. Thank You all!
So, now we move forward and to the 2nd Annual Snowball Derby. This an event I am really looking forward to. Put the negative publicity from the 1st one, and the event was definetely a great battle. I hope to see 50 or so of the best short track sim racers battling to make the show. It would really make it all worth it for myself and the other ASRS admins. Would be great to see some of our old friends back on the track!
