2013 Races 17 & 18 (Marlisle 200)

Terra International Motorsports a no-show for Marlisle 200 due to logistics issues

While the team and Jack Dempsey may have arrived safely for the race, it seems that their driver failed to follow directions and how to comprehend the French language. This failure led the driver, who was supposed to be following a GPS, to wind up at the Hudson Bay.

"This is utter bullcrap," Dempsey stated to reporters, "I come off from a 3 race suspension, I get knocked out due to a fuel mileage issue last week, and now my car doesn't arrive?! I have had less trouble with the A.S.S. (Animal Safety Society). I know the team did their best not to have things f**k up this weekend, but our luck really needs to turn around."

The hauler driver was unable to find his way back until the RCMP was able to escort him to the track. As he arrived, he was given a pink slip and a ticket back to his home state. The driver was unavailable for comments.

Zachary Zins missing following race in Marlisle

After Zachary Zins did not show up for a post-race interview following his strong run in Mudmagnumumumum, the team announced he had not returned to the garage since the race ended. More updates to follow...

Jon Halks: "It's nice to finally finish a race. It's even nicer that we finished in the Top 10 and got back into the Top 35 in points. I hope we can make Pocono, because if we do, that will really help our shot at a Top 30 finish in points."

Zachary Zins arrested on charges of Assault outside of track.

Zachary Zins was found outside of the track being tackled to the ground by some of the racegoers. When officials interviewed the people who held him down, they said the scuffle started when one of them accidentally spilled some water on the driver, who appeared to be searching for something or someone at the time. This apparently set Zins off in a tirade of accusations of an assassination attempt and a couple of racist remarks involving Karls. He landed punches on at least seven people before being taken down. Zins will be charged and could face up to a whole week in prison along with a hefty fine if convicted.

"Lead" Foote Dominates the Marlisle 200

Power Steering Incorporated made it two consecutive wins in a row when Bigsby Foote powered his way into the winner's circle at the 1/3-mile Autodrome Montmagny in Quebec at the final race of the ARLA Canadian tour.

  "I'll say that we've just witnessed the new frontrunner for 'Race of the Year'," PSI owner William Power stated shortly after Bigsby Foote's convincing win. "That was some of the best side by side racing I've ever seen on the planet-- and not just this year, but ever!"

 "That was much more fun than what happened at Mexico with Ashley Tucker and Rip a few weeks back!" shouted and elated Foote. "Rip and me were having a blast and racin' hard and clean-- not as teammates but just as competitors. It seemed like we were the only ones on the track at one point. Can't beat that for excitement!"

  Unfortunately for Tyler the fun came to a crashing halt when the #78 car of Andrea Kinasa got loose and hit the #707 car of Edwin Schwarzloski. Schwarzloski then shoved Kinasa's car up into Tyler's Leapin' Lizards Lycoia Interceptor causing Tyler to slam into the wall effectively knocking Tyler out of contention for the win. Kinasa was running 4 laps down at the time.

 That left Foote to duke it out with the #45 car of Harry S. Enola. An impressive side by side battle similar to that of the one earlier in the race between Foote and Tyler ensued. Foote and Enola dueled trading the lead back and forth for many laps. But even with some damage sustained earlier in the race, Foote finally managed to pull away with the help of some lapped traffic.

"That earlier exchange with Tyler really helped me when battling Enola," Foote stated.

Tyler salvaged a podium and a third place finish and Libby Bell managed to complete the top 10 trifecta for PSI with a seventh place finish. All three PSI cars led a lap with "Lead" Foote leading the most.

 After the conclusion of the Marlisle 200, Tyler has climbed back into championship contention closing the gap on series points leader Taylor Brillon to just 79 points. With the win, Bigsby Foote moved up into seventh, 141 points back. Bell slots in fourteenth 179 points behind Brillon.

 "I think this team is back on track and we may be able to make another championship run like we did late last year," a beaming Power responded. "Barring a complete disaster, this could be another great season in the annals of PSI's short history."
