Gremlins Plague Dan Green’s VIP DJ Entertainment’s #46 Super Late Model!

Coatesville, PAMay 24, 2017Dan Green and the G & H Motorsports team traveled to Selinsgrove Speedway (PA) this past weekend for the Moon Shine Route 35 Super Late Model Series Race. The Heat race went well as Dan started 2nd and ran well for the first half of the race but the car slowed down just a little and finished 5th. After the heat race the team checked under the hood and determined that is was a blown head gasket and the best plan for the team was to start the feature in last and then pull off after completing a few laps. The first year starting any new venture is always challenging, having the Super motor is no different, the team is very positive that things will turn around and the finishes will be much better then what we are currently having. Bryan Bernheisel and the DMB Motorsports #119 won the feature event, congrats to Bryan and the team!
Team News!
The team has been busy with both the Super Chassis and motor. The Chassis was inspected by the good folks at Bernheisel Race Components (BRC) after the accident at Port Royal Speedway and it was decided that it will be replace with an all new 2017 Lazer X Chassis. BRC is preparing the Lazer and it will be debuted in mid to late June. We want to send a huge “Thank You” to Ed and Mike at Hot Rod Processing for assisting the team with the decision making on the new equipment. Without sponsors like them we would not be able to do what we love!

The super motor is being taken apart and sent to Craiger Racing Engines for repairs. It will be back and reinstalled in time for the first appearance of the #46 during the Appalachian Mountain Speedweeks race on June 1st.
Congratulations to Our Friends!
This past weekend was a great one for Nathan Mohr in his 17m Sportsman and both Big Diamond and Grandview Speedways. After a serious flipping accident a couple weeks ago, the young driver in his 1st full year racing, came back and won both heat races and after leading many laps in the feature finished 2nd. Congrats Nate!

The Grandview modified #22 team with Joe “Geezer” Fanelli at the helm has been a huge help to the G & H team. This Saturday he qualified and then finished 20th in the feature. Joe says he is learning his new modified and getting as much seat time as possible. Look for him to move up each week as they continue to qualify with the best in the very competitive division.

Grandview Speedway changed the Late Model division this week and no longer have heat races but switched to time trial qualification. There have been some good remarks from the drivers and you can look for the officials to tweek things over the next couple weeks. There are always things you don’t think about when making changes to a process. Congrats to Wayne Pfiel for his feature win in the Late Models.

Blast from the Past Vintage ran at both Big Diamond Friday and Grandview Saturday this week. Our family and team friends Todd Lapp and Ron Myers run them. Todd finished 2nd Friday and 4th Saturday while Ron finished 3rd Friday and we congratulate him on winning the feature Saturday!!
