Gary Tomkins/Rick Clay Racing Tidbits

Craig Revelle reports on DTD that Gary Tomkins will be in the Mike Petruska 66 car on Wednesday (tonight) night at Fonda Speedway and will also be in action on Saturday in that car at New Egypt Speedway. Danny Johnson will be at both events in the Mike Payne Racing 27J, so as far as I know, he's still in the car, but that's looking to be more and more in question. We'll see.

Rick Clay Racing's 88c big block modified will have a different driver than usual in the car this Saturday. Billy Pauch Jr is a weekly runner at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday nights in the 358 sprint division where he is currently in the top 5 in points, so he will not be racing in the $15,000-to-win Friends of Mike race at New Egypt Speedway this Saturday. So, his big block ride, the Rick Clay team, will have a different driver behind the wheel. Currently, it appears that Doug Manmiller will be the driver of the car for the event, although it's not completely official. Johnny Guarino is the other driver being considered for the ride, as he is currently awaiting engine repairs on his own #9.
