Champions Crowned!

Saturday night we crowned our 2009 Sidelines champions.  Rodal Partin and Allen Cox were on hand to accept there awards and prizes.  Partin is the inaugural winner of the Sidelines Demolition Derby Points Chase.  He sealed the deal winning the final show of the season at Scottsburg.  This season Partin became the first ever repeat winner.  He actually pulled out 3 big wins. Big Al made the trip up to be crowned the inaugural Indiana AutoCross Champion.  Cox won the fair show at Johnson County.  This show was the ticket to the championship after car troubles put him out of the last race.  Brad Bex and Chris Perry fell short of the championship by just a few points. There were also several awards handed out throughout the night.  The first award went to Randy Perry for "Roll over of the Year".  Randy rolled his car at the Johnson County Fall show.   It was a very violent roll that had everyone worried.  He shook the cob webs loose and off he went!  I.A.S. Sportsman of the year went to Brad Bex.  Brad is always willing to give someone a hand.  There are not enough words to emphasize the amount of class this man shows at every single event.  The demolition derby Sportsman award went to the BAAMM team and Marc Hommel.  How many people do you see driving a derby car with a smile.  The guy gets out of his car and shakes everyones hand.  He is defiantly one of the most pleasant drivers to be around.  The next award was "Hardest hit of 2009", this award went to Travis Stienhour for his monster hit at Marion County.  There were alot of hits that stand out, but this shot was by far the most memorable!  Our next award was awarded to Joey Woodward for "Break out Driver Of the Year."  Several guys stood out for this award, but we had to determine which guys would be targeted at shows next year.  4 drivers went from the average ranks to contenders, Woodward, Dave Sims, Jeff Jarboe, and Jason Reece.  All of these drivers posted there best ever finishes this season.  All of them backed up there best finish with multiple solid runs and at multiple tracks.  At the end of the day Woodward had the best finishing average of everyone.  The final award was Sportsman of the year voted on by the top 10 in points.  This award was given to Jeff Jarboe.  Jeff had a very tuff season giving and receiving big shots.  No matter what the outcome, he got out and congratulated everyone.  We were pressed for Time during the awards part, because of the upcomeing band.  One part that got left out was the Rising Star portion.  Several drivers made there first ever features this season and had there best runs. We wanted to point out a few of there accomplishments.  Most of these guys were not able to make make a run at the points but they are guys to look out for in the future.  Guys like Brock Hemiger making both Johnson County Fair Features.  Randy Sheckels getting his career best feature finish at the Johnson County Fall Show.  Randy backed up that run by making the feature at the season ending clean up show.  Even though these 2 guys did not go after the points, there good runs put them in the top 20 in points.  The 2x of Eric Helton and the 74D of Donnie lucas, both broke thru at their local track to post good runs.  The party was alot of fun.  The band was a bit loud, but were a nice addition.  Next years party will be bigger and better, we leaned alot last night.  Once again I would like to thank everyone who made it!   Edit Text

Mark Hommel Wins Johnson County Championship!

Mark Hommel DOMINATED the Johnson County Fair this week.  Mark won on Friday night and took home a very hard fought 3rd place on Saturday.  The real story was his close victory on Saturday.  The final 3 cars were getting hung up on each other, and it ended with Toast getting hung on Hommel and Tony Dunn making the final tap to win.  Toast took home 2nd in the county Championship by a very slim margin over Jason Jarbo.  We still have not figured out how Jason was able to get that car back to the track on Saturday, let alone get another 10 finish.  Hommel's weekend of dominance has spring boarded him up to 2nd place, a slim 40 points behind point leader Rondal Parton.  Edit Text

Saftey Rules Change

Over the weekend we received many phone calls regarding the windshield bar or strap.  This bar or strap was put in place to protect a driver if his hood were to come loose not to strengthen the car.  If you are NOT running a Distributor protector, this bar or strap can be run in any manner.  If you ARE running a distributor protector, only number 9 wire or a thin strap may be used in the area of the distributor protector.  If you are using a bar, thick strap, re-bar, or any other type of material that can strengthen the car in any way, it may only be attached to the firewall or dash bar 4 INCHES to either side of the distributor protector.  If you have any questions, contact JR Rouse @ 765-238-8012.  All drivers have atleast 2 weeks to make changes to there car.

The 2009 outdoor season started with a big bang in Noblesville, Indiana Saturday night.  46 cars were on hand to take part in leg #1 of the Sidelines Challenge.  18 cars advanced to the feature, but only 17 were able to make it back to the track. The Silver #77 of Rondal Parton came out on top.  We had to go back to the video to find 2nd place.  It was determined that the 412 of Joe Woodward made the next hit.  The 1181 of Larry Eidson took home 3rd and was awarded the Event Wrecking Ball.

Compact Trucks Rules Posted:

In 2010 all Indiana AutoCross races will feature compact trucks as a support class.  This class will be run in an exhibition style format until there is enough support to run a full race event.  I have had alot of interest in this class, look for big things out of these small trucks!!!

Marion County Rules Released!!!!!

 Rouse Promotions has teamed up with the Franklin Township Lions Club to put on the Marion County Fair Demolition Derby.  This derby has constantly been one of the largest derbies in the State of Indiana.  This event is the largest fund raiser for the Franklin Township Lions Club, they use the money to fund several youth based projects there in the community.  

This derby will not use our normal rules.  This derby requires cars to be "Bone Stock".  The derby is designed to allow drivers a very quick and simple build.  This derby is also geared towards new drivers that do not have experience building demolition derby cars.  Look for more information to come on this show.

Hamilton Co. vs Boone Co

Jay Anderson and JR Rouse have teamed up to reward the drivers that are running all of our shows in Lebanon and Noblesville. Each venue will host 2 events during the 2009 season. Jay and i sat down to talk at the end of last season, we both recognize that our core group of drivers are the same for these 2 venues. We decided to try to do something to reward these drivers. Easiest way is to create a mini point series between the 2 venues. The guys down at Thorntown Auto Salvage loved the idea. They helped make it possible for us to reward the winner of the series a fresh 1992 Lincoln Town Car. We have a few more ideas and prizes still to come!

The first event will be held at the Hamilton County Fair Grounds on May 16th. The 2nd event will be during the Boone County Fair on July 25th. The 3rd event will go back to the Hamilton County Fair grounds on August 8th. The Final Event will be held at the Boone County Fairgrounds in September ( date will be announced soon)! These are the only events that will reward points for the car. If another even is scheduled in these counties or at the venues it will NOT count.
