XIIR 2022… What?

Been a while since any updates have been posted. All I can say is life. Things need to get done and don’t always have time to post updates. So here goes….. I’m sorry this is over a year behind! Illnesses, injuries, and moving made it very difficult to get it done. I had the draft sitting in the folder for a while, just had to add the pictures! XIIR… wtf is that? It is extreme indoor ice racing. When you receive an invite to the northeastern leg of the tour YOU GO! So Jr busted his ass and put together … Continue reading XIIR 2022… What?

Back in the drivers seat!

Jr had an invite to drive our friends mini sprint at a Bear Ridge race last weekend, of course he couldn’t pass it up! So the boys busted butt and set the car up for the weight difference and driving style. Off we went to Bear Ridge hoping to place the 44 car of Vickery Racing in the winners circle. Jr is a driver and can adapt to almost anything he is put in or on, but not thus time. He gave me flash backs to his very first ATV race at the age of 4/5 and ran out back … Continue reading Back in the drivers seat!

2020 Season recap

With Covid restrictions in our area putting a damper on racing the team went in a different direction for the season. Our racing roots are in ATV flat track racing…. So that’s where we went! Last winter we purchased a few Honda 250x Atv’s. They were not in the best shape and needed work. The boys got 2 of the 3 running and ready to go. First race at NHMX flat track was a blast. A little bit crazy, but still a blast. The mini sprints were out for this trip along with the atv’s. First off there is Justin…. … Continue reading 2020 Season recap

Covid-19 puts hold on racing….

With the 2020 race season scheduled to start soon, car shows and test days were to be on May 2, Covid has put an uncertain hold on racing. Two dirt tracks in two different states, NH as of this writing, has a stay at home order until May 4th. This is expected to be extended by the Governor in the next couple of days.  VT just extended their stay at home order until May 15th.  Once orders are lifted it surely will be with many conditions. Social distancing will be the new normal for the foreseeable future. Until then we … Continue reading Covid-19 puts hold on racing….

Right side racing gone wrong….

Over the winter we picked up an enclosed trailer from a fellow racer. Included was a left side car. The boys decided that the proven antique right side car was in need of some rest and relaxation, so they went to work on the left side car. Jr busted butt to get the motor together, broken in and ready to race. The left side 01 car made its first visit to Bear Ridge Speedway in Bradford VT .It was a bad trip. Right down to tow vehicle problems. Practice laps gave Jr some input on changing the cars set up. … Continue reading Right side racing gone wrong….
