Hello Race fans. I have been planning on creating a motorsports news organization for about 4 years now. I got fed up with the scarcity of news coverage by the local news papers and decided to do something about it.
About 3 1/2 years ago I discovered a local publication called "Full Throttle" published by Steve Towrey of PrintCraft in Caldwell. I asked him if he needed any help with writing and content and he told me no because he was closing down the magazine. I then decided to start Idaho Racing News.
After considerable time Idaho Racing News is finally up and running again. I had the web page up for a short time in 2004 (some of you may remember) but now the site is easier for me to manage and race results will be posted immediately.
A few months ago I was asked to be the track writer for Meridian Speedway. I am thoroughly enjoying this. Aside from the benifits I receive from the track I get to hang with racers every weekend. Racers and race fans are some of may favorite people.
In addition to Meridian Speedway I travel to Bonneville Salt Flats every year for the annual Speed Week in mid August. This year I will post that information within a few days of returning. Along with notes about some of the local competitors.
Pics will be posted as soon as this website is set up to receive pics. I love photography and if I shoot enough I get some very good pics so look for those in the future.
And speaking about photography look for screen captures from the videos produced by Western Raceway Video Productions. They are one of our permanent links that you will find on this web site. Contact them to purchase a copy of your favorite race at Meridian Speedway or other locations.
If you have any thoughts or sugestions create a user account by clicking on the box located on the main page and post comments. This user account will also allow you to post comments after any of the news articles.
Enjoy; this is only the beginning.
Hey People
Listen up
I know there are at least a few people reading the stuff on this site. What I need now is that some of you log on and write stuff too. If you have a cool link send it to me. Or if you have any jokes or off topic (non racing or motorsports) stuff send it along. Email me at brian@idahoracingnews.com if you don't want to post, but if you do click on the create account button below the login button on the right side of the screen and get going. Were going to someday be big. You should be a part of it.
