Gumboro/Crisfield Mudbogs Racing Points As of 9/1/12
The mudbogging season will come to a close locally with the last event being held in Gumboro, Delaware on October 13, 2012.
Racing for the closing events is going to be a nail biter! A few of the drivers are very close in points and anything can happen in that mud pit....(we've all learned that heartache).

Gumboro MudBog Season Opens
Gumboro Mudbog
Saturday May 5, 2012
Mudbog season is finally here!
All trucks clean and shining....changes for some were made over the winter...and ready to go!
I believe the final count was 72 entries in the various race classes. Keep in mind that some of these driver enter two and three different classes and don't get to finish the racing day due to a malfunction with the truck....such as "The Short and Sassy" which suffered a broken drive shaft (and some other problems) in it's first race of the season.
Now, to set the record straight concerning my thoughts (because I take this crap pretty seriously)... this can happen to any truck at any time. I've seen it happen many times. I'm just glad it happened during the first of the season instead of having accumulated points and be near the season end when points are most important.

187 East Performance/ Bowden Racing didn't seem the same Saturday without Johnny. It seems Johnny Edwards, driver of "In the Mix", has taken the season off. We're all going to miss him and his family this summer. But at least I know I will leave at the end of the racing day with my nerves in tack. His driving makes me nervous!
On this particular Saturday mudbog history was made at Gumboro. "Wild Fire" and driver Sonny Sturgis made their first venture to the muddy track. Because Sonny wasn't able to drive he designated Donald to drive. Well, the "Mud Doc", I call him, had never driven in the mud. Oh, he's a racer but all of his driving has been done on the dry tracks in places like Delmar.

In case you don't know - Donald has worked on many of the engines in these trucks for many years. He knows engines...he knows racing and how to race....but he's never ventured into the mud.
So, wearing the T-shirt that read "Drive it like you stole it" under his racing suit Donald sets out for his first mud race competion!
If believe this is the Modified Class and Donald ended with a time of 4.56 !! If I'm not correct I'm sure one of them will correct me. What a thrill it was for all of us to see! Here's a guy that has been there for all of us through the years and is always there with us on racing days.
He's seen trucks go into the mud and out of the mud. He's seen them stuck in the mud and he's seen them zig zag and catch fire. But he never had the opportunity to drive....until this Saturday.
I hope he's still smiling........
More photos soon.

Gumboro Mudbog Racing Has Begun
Gumboro/Crisfield Mudbogs opened the 2012 season on Saturday under foggy skies but the weather didn't seem to put a damper on the amount of mud trucks anxiously awaiting opening day.
I'll have more photos and video posted later.
But first here's something that, in my opinion, you need to know.
The Modified Race was "The William "Mike" Brittingham Mudbog Tribute Race.
After very successful pass through 200 feet of mud Charlie Price, driver of "Midnight Express", stopped his truck, removed his helmet and presented it to someone in the granstands. During the remainder of the race day Charlie's helmet was passed around in the grandstands and pit area to collect funds for the Mike Brittingham family.

For those who may not know, "Mike" Brittingham was killed in a vehicle accident a few weeks ago. He was an avid fan of mudracing and Mike's untimely death leaves behind a wife and four young children. Funds collected will go into a trust fund for Mike's children.
GREAT JOB, CHARLIE !
