Breitenstein Done; AJ Slideways News

Per SouthJerseyDirtRacing.com, Breitenstein Motorsports is selling out. The Breitenstein team has been around for quite a few years on the Pennsylvania small block circuit, fielding cars most recently for Kenny Gilmore. They had success in the past as well with drivers including Kevin Hartnett, Keith Brightbill, and Doug Manmiller.

In a move that surprises nobody, Alan Johnson, per Dirt Track Digest, has been named the new driver for Kenny Saya. The team plans a full assault on the 2012 Super DIRTcar Series.

Weekend Results; Fantasy League Update; Plenty of Tidbits

Fantasy League is updated on the left

Now, onto the tidbits. Area Auto Racing News reported that Wade Hendrickson will take over driving duties of the Steve Kratz Racing #20 small-block modified in weekly competition at Grandview Speedway in 2012. Hendrickson will still have his own car for select big and small block races.

Sportsman standout Shane Pecore is moving up to the 358-modified division. He'll take over driving duties for the Warrior Racing Team and tentatively plans to run weekly at Mohawk International Raceway and Cornwall Motor Speedway. Pecore ran a few 358-modiifed races this season with Warrior and also in a back-up Jeff Sykes car.

Bobby Varin has parted ways with the Kenny Saya #10 team. Varin still plans on driving for Mike Romano #97 at Glen Ridge and also in the Dover Brakes Racing #00 at Fonda, and hopes to find a ride for traveling in 2012. No word on who will replace Varin with Saya, but the smart money is on Alan Johnson, who drives a car with support for Saya currently.

Coulbourne Racing has sold out, meaning that Kenny Brightbill is without a ride. The team also ran in the past with Mark Byram, Jamie Mills, and Donny Radd.

Here are the weekend results...
