Fowl Mood Racing Scores First Win of 2012 at Brighton Speedway


After a disappointing night last week at Brighton, and some added frustration during a mid week race at Can Am, Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team bounced back in a big way, leading every lap and dominating the 30 lap Late Model Feature at Brighton Speedway on Saturday night.

After a strong second place finish in their qualifier, Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team made some adjustments to their car in preparation for the main event.  Starting from the front row, Potts took the lead early and ran a flawless race, leading every lap and dominating the entire race.  The win was their first in the 2012 racing season.

“I really have to thank Stu Archer and the entire Fowl Mood Racing team for all their help”, says Potts.  “Everyone puts a lot of time in at the shop and here at the track to get this car running better, and tonight it has all come together.  I also want to thank our fans and sponsors for their support throughout the season”.

This coming week, Potts will be back in action at Brighton Speedway on Saturday night looking for his second win in a row.  The following week will be a busy one, with the first round of the Go Nuclear Late Model Series at Mohawk International Raceway on Friday, June 9th.

Fowl Mood Racing would not be possible without the support of our sponsors.  We would like to thank Hutchinson Fuels, Indewey Excavating, Vanderlaan Building Supplies, Bill’s Johns, Gord’s Water Service and Brighton Recycling Inc. for all their support, and we look forward to a very exciting 2012 season.

Fowl Mood Racing Has Disappointing Night at Brighton Speedway


After a pair of top five finishes to start the 2012 season at Brighton Speedway, Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team were looking forward to getting back to the track, trying to get that first win of the year and more importantly continue their consistency and battle for the Brighton Speedway Late Model Championship.

The bad luck began just one lap from the checkered flag in the qualifying race, as a flat tire sent Potts to the pit area.  The team made some adjustments to the car to prepare for the 30 lap main event, but on the very first lap, the driveshaft broke, sending Potts back to the pits.  They did return to the track for the final eight laps with a very fast car, but several laps down.

“We had a good car in the heat race, and then we got the flat tire, and didn’t even get a chance to see how good we could have been in the feature with the driveshaft issue”, says Potts.  “It a pretty disappointing night, but that’s racing”.

This coming week, Potts will be at Can Am Motorsports Park for a special Wednesday night event, and will be back at Brighton Speedway looking to get back on track, and get back to their hometown victory lane.

“It is a tough field out there, with a lot of competitive race teams in this division”, adds Potts.  We are going to keep working hard, and hopefully we can get our share of wins, and battle for the championship as the season progresses”.

Fowl Mood Racing would not be possible without the support of our sponsors.  We would like to thank Hutchinson Fuels, Indewey Excavating, Vanderlaan Building Supplies, Bill’s Johns, Gord’s Water Service and Brighton Recycling Inc. for all their support, and we look forward to a very exciting 2012 season.

Fowl Mood Racing Gets Another Top Five Finish at Brighton Speedway


After a second place finish on opening night at Brighton Speedway, Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team were anxious to get back to the track, hoping to finish one spot better. 

A second place finish in their qualifying team had them optimistic going into their 30 lap feature.  The team made some adjustments on the car after qualifying, as they were looking to capture their first win of the 2012 season.  At the end of the race, Potts finished with a solid top five run, placing him third in points after two events.

“We are off to a pretty solid start after the first two weeks of the season”, says Potts.  “Hopefully we can get that first win of the season soon, and stay consistent throughout the season.  If we can do that, we will be in contention for the Late Model championship here come September”.

The Fowl Mood Racing team does have their new 2012 race team apparel available for purchase.  Stop by and visit the Fowl Mood Racing team after the races, or contact us through our website to make other arrangements.

Fowl Mood Racing Gets Second Place Finish on Opening Night at Brighton


After a trip to Florida in early February, and a short dash across the border for practice and opening night at Can Am the last couple weeks, Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team were anxious to get the season started on their home turf, as Brighton Speedway opened for the 2012 season.

Before the events at the track got underway, the Fowl Mood Racing team joined several other area race teams for a parade along the streets of Brighton to support the local Food Bank.  With the parade over, the attention soon turned to the night’s racing activities.  Potts finished his qualifying heat in second, and was very happy with how the car handled.  With some fine-tuning on the set up of the car, the team was confident that they would have a good finish in the main event.

In the 30 lap main event, Potts started from inside of the second row in the third position.  He ran a solid race, and moved up to second at the checkered flag.

“We had a good run tonight, the car really worked well for us”, says Potts.  “Hopefully next week will be just a little better, and we can get this car to victory lane”.

This coming Saturday night, Potts and the Fowl Mood Team will be back at the Brighton Speedway looking for their first win of the 2012 season.  The team will race at Brighton weekly, and will follow the Go Nuclear Late Model Challenge Series, beginning June 8th at Mohawk International Raceway in Hogansburg, New York.
