I sure hope all the mother’s had a great Mother’s Day this past Sunday. This should be a very special day for all of us because out “MOMS” deserve it. While we’re on the subject of mom, let’s move on to this Friday night here at Five Flags Speedway. You’re going to see some mom’s that are a little different from the “Sweet Little Ladies” that you are used to. The one’s I am referring to are hardnosed rough around the edges out of control dare devils of the Modifieds of Mayhem (MOM) open wheel modi- fied series that will be in the pits this week. Who in their right mind would schedule these boys on a Friday 13th? Blame Tim Bryant for that. All jokes aside, get ready for some fantas- tic open wheel racing from drivers such as Melvin, Cotto, Hamric, Mason, Ruble and a host of others who will light up the track with plenty of open wheel to wheel action. See inside story on Ryan Worsham.

All drivers in will be out to stop the early 2016 domination of Todd Jones, Super Stock, Steve Buttrick, Sportsman and the drivers from Mobile in the Bomber class. On May 27th we return with the second Deep South Crane “Bliz- zard Series” for Super Late Models. If the first one was any indication, look for a strong field of cars. Congratulations to Georgia’s Casey Roderick on his win in the Blizzard race on April 29th. Looks like he may have back to back championships on his mind. The family of Five Flags would like to send their condolences to Steve and Gale Brassell on the loss of Steve’s mother this past week. Gale is the sister of Kay Bryant and sister in law of Randy Bryant. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.
