McGlashan Motorsports

After a hot start to the season the past few weeks have really been a struggle for us. We broke our primary engine 3 races ago and we purchased a replacement that we hoped would be good but sadly it’s been nothing but problems since we got it with the head gasket letting go the first week then after having the head redone in an off week we had it break again after crossing the finishing line last Saturday.

I was ready to throw the towel in on our season with only 1 week left but my father in law wasn’t ready to give up and he changed motor in my car all by himself this week cause I was so busy with work. This motor is nothing special and we know nothing about it weather it’ll last 1 lap or 1000 laps but I can’t thank bill enough for his effort to keep me in the points chase since we are second in points still!

This season wouldn’t have been possible without all my amazing sponsors and my father in law Bill for all his help and hard work!

Not the night we were looking for after a long 2 weeks getting our new motor ready. Started 6th in my heat race got up to 2nd before i was punted thru the grass and settled for 3rd. Come feature time I started 4th and we had the outside rolling and worked our way into second and had the fastest lap time of the race at the time when our motor overheated and shut down on lap 11. Don’t think we would have been able to catch the leader but we’ll never know now.

Special thanks to the skld team for letting me use a water hose after we had one blew after our heat race. Without that hose we wouldn’t have made the feature.

Big thanks to all my sponsors for there support we’ve hit a rough patch the last few weeks but we’ll keep digging and be back in 2 weeks.

Not the weekend we were hoping for, went out for practice at Peterborough Speedway and the car felt fast. When pulling off the track I noticed the oil pressure started going low. Once I made the right hand turn off the track it went to 0 and I instantly shut it off. I can’t thank Coltin Everingham enough for talking to the owners of the car he was gonna drive and giving up his ride for the night so I could get the chance to keep racing. Sadly early in the race in that car the motor expired in that car too.

We’ve been working on my car the past two days and it appears I shut the motor off early enough it didn’t destroy the engine but it will need work before it can be run again so we are on the hunt for another b18 motor so we can get back out in 2 weeks. Thank you to all my sponsors and everyone in my corner this year. This is a minor set back we will be back!

After picking up our 6th top 5 finish of the year and our 4th heat race win in 7 races at Peterborough Speedway last time out, we’re excited to head back this weekend For a 50 lap race! We’ve been working hard on improving the car and it felt the best it has all year our last race. If all goes well Saturday we will head to Sauble Speedway Sunday to race in the Heat Wave weekend. None of this would be possible without our amazing sponsors!

Started our heat race off in 7th last night and it was shortened due to a crash on lap 6. We were able to cross the line in 2nd but following tech we won our 3rd heat race of the year. 🏁 Sadly Aundrea was involved in a bad wreck so I withdrew from the rest of the nights racing. We will be back next weekend ready to do battle again! Thanks to all my sponsors for your support and understanding last night.

Loading up for race 6 of the year at Peterborough Speedway! Found some issues with the car in the off week hoping we can find speed in it for tonight 🏁

P5 last night at Peterborough Speedway after starting 7th. Our car turns so good but we’re getting out powered by every single car on the track and loosing like 2 car lengths every straightaway. Gotta find a way to get some speed out it before we come back. Big thanks to all my sponsors for there support this year! Was great to see the track packed last night at fan appreciation for double toonie night! 🏁

Not the weekend we were hoping for, but there were definitely some positives to take away. We spent most of the feature running inside the top 5 and had a fast car all night. Unfortunately, some contact and getting stuck on the outside lane changed the handling and made for a challenging finish. We'll go back to the shop, regroup, and put in the work to get things headed back in the right direction. Nights like these are all part of racing, and we'll come back stronger.

Another solid night for us at Peterborough Speedway last night. Won our second heat race of the year. Finished 3rd in the feature, car started overheating bad with 5 laps to go so had to limp it home. Did a leak down test today and all seems good so we’ll be back at next weekend again looking to find some more speed.

Great night for us at Peterborough Speedway. Made some adjustments to the car this week and it really paid off. Started 5th in my heat race finished 3rd. Come feature time I started 4th worked my way up the lead for a corner before settling in 2nd. Missed a shift on the final restart and Crossed the line in 3rd but post tech we ended up 2nd! I’m getting more used to the car every time out and I feel there’s still room for improvement with the car and myself. Thanks to SKLD for helping me parts after a little issue in practice.
Huge thanks as always to my sponsors
