KANKE PREVAILS IN WILD IRWINDALE STOCK CAR TRIPLEHEADER

By TIM KENNEDY

IRWINDALE, Calif., Nov. 27-28 – M. K. Kanke, the 2009 SRL touring series champion, won the featured 110-lap Spears/SRL Southwest Tour stock car race on the Toyota Speedway at Irwindale half-mile Sunday afternoon in a 29-car field. It was his fifth feature victory at TS@I and his second consecutive at the track in SRL competition aboard his No. 33 Sim’s Trucking/RPM-PSI.COM Chevy. He received $5,000, the second largest winner’s paycheck in SRL history, plus a unique Fender Guitar specially painted by Troy Lee Designs. The Lucas Oil suggested event took two days to complete because of rain Saturday night. The inaugural Canidae California Classic Presented by MasterCraft offered a $50,000 purse for three top stock car classes. SRL drivers Ross Strmiska, Jonathon Gomez, Scott Sanchez and Brennan Newberry completed the top five. Troy Ermish, Joe Farre, Chris Holloway, Eddie Secord and Justin Westmoreland rounded out the top ten. Fourteen of 29 starters were racing at the conclusion with the first 12 finishers running all 110 laps. The race was the first Sunday racing at the TS@I oval track since the ASA Series touring stock cars from the Midwest raced a scheduled Sunday afternoon race in 2002.

The race for SRL drivers in former NASCAR Elite Division Southwest Tour cars started at 2:45 pm. It had a planned full-field 15-minute pit stop in the infield at the lap 55 halfway mark. Crews could refuel and work on cars but could not change tires. There were four caution flags apart from the halftime break. The first yellow was on lap 37 after Mike Lay stalled. On lap 49 Derek Thorn (the only driver to race in all three divisions) spun the 18th place John Wood No. 41 that Indy 500 veteran Davey Hamilton had qualified 17th fastest of 29 qualifiers Saturday. Hamilton had to return to his home in Indianapolis Sunday. Jesus Hernandez hit the first turn wall in the Carlos Vieira 51 car on lap 87 while running ninth. Eric Holmes, the NASCAR 2010 K & N West champion, was running fifth when he contacted the fourth turn wall. He slowed and exited on lap 97, earning 16th place.

The final yellow flag waved on lap 101 when Keith Spangler and Jason Gilbert collided in turn one while dueling for fifth position. Under caution irate Gilbert spun Spangler’s No. 37 in the second turn. Spangler then cut through the infield at speed to retaliate under caution on the front straight. Gilbert saw him coming and stopped his No. 44 in mid-track as he exited turn four. SRL race control (Larry Collins) ordered both cars off the track. Spangler drove to the pits and parked, as did Gilbert. SRL placed Gilbert in last position in the official finishing order. The final top five position change occurred on lap 108 when back row starter Scott Sanchez took fourth place from Brennan Newberry with an inside pass in the fourth turn.

The checkered flag flew at 3:51 on a sunny, 60-degree day with a chilly wind that kept the spectator count to an estimated 200 in the grandstand. About 1,000 fans in the grandstand Saturday night braved the cold wind and a CBS-TV forecast of 40% chance of rain keeping many expected spectators home. Three drivers, including Hamilton, Vieira and Mike Mendenhall, qualified for the SRL race Saturday, but were unable to race Sunday because of prior commitments. All three cars started Sunday with substitute drivers. Richard Herzog, father of SRL driver Bryan Herzog, started Mendenhall’s No. 10 and pulled to the infield on lap 3. The Lucas Oil Motorsports hour TV production crew also was unable to return Sunday to tape the event for a scheduled Versus Network telecast on December 26. Sponsors Canidae Natural Pet Foods and MasterCraft Supply had display booths at the TS@I chalet village. Greyhound Rescue, which tries to find homes for ex-greyhound racing dogs, brought some of the sleek greyhounds to TS@I Saturday and Sunday. More information is available at www.fastfriends.com.

SLM 100: Duane Hunt, Jr., a 22-year old from Tucson, AZ, won the Pepsi Super Late Model 100-lap race Sunday after light rain Saturday on lap 15 halted that race at 8:28 pm. At 8:46 pm track VP/GM Bob DeFazio announced the postponement to 1:00 pm Sunday. Pole starter Scott Dodd had led the first six laps Saturday before quickest qualifier/third starter Johnson shot to the point with an inside pass entering the third turn. The top four at that point were all second generation drivers—Johnson, Dodd, Reed, and Ryan Partridge. All 18 cars were on the lead lap. Hunt, the 15th starter, in his black & green No. 31, posted his surprising first career victory at any track the next afternoon. He earned $4,000. Second through fifth paid $2,000, $1,250, $1,000 and $750, with gradual drop-offs to $300 for last place. A shocking ending preceded his trip to victory lane and caused track officials to revert to the last green flag lap (98) for the official finish. Leader Ryan Reed, 17, and challenger Rod Johnson, Jr., 21-year old 2010 TS@I Auto Club Late Model champion, were racing closely for their first SLM victory. Johnson challenged on the inside and Reed held the outside line. Their cars collided on lap 99 in the fourth turn, sending Reed’s car hard into the crash-wall nose first. Johnson’s car continued slowly around the track to the yellow and checkered flags with smoking tires and body damage.

Only three cars were on the track at the conclusion in the most bizarre finish in TS@I history. Several drivers in the top five ran out of fuel in the closing laps. Hunt inherited third place on lap 98 on the backstretch after Derek Thorn ran out of fuel and pulled to the infield. Johnson’s damaged car and Joe DeGuevara, who was down five laps, were the only other cars on the track with winner Hunt at the checkered flag. After alighting from his heavily damaged No. 04 car, stopped against the fourth turn wall, Reed walked to the start/finish area where the top three drivers had stopped for post-race interviews. Reed angrily confronted Johnson and had to be restrained by track safety crewmen. Later, Reed said he had not run out of gas as reported erroneously over the track PA system. He said Johnson had stepped up to the faster super late models and crashed him. Johnson accepted blame and said his car pushed up into Reed’s car unintentionally. The popular, talented driver from Canyon Country apologized for the crash. During time trials Saturday from 4:49 to 5:07 Johnson drove the No. 30 Position One Motorsports Chevy to a new one lap track record--17.571. It was his first race start in the SLM car following practice sessions on Friday.

The SLM main started Sunday at 1:08 pm and concluded at 2:24. It had five race leaders and six lead changes. Dodd paced the first 17 laps, leading the tight pack of four with Reed, Johnson and Partridge challenging. Johnson passed Reed on lap 15 and passed Dodd on the inside at turn four on lap 18 to become the leader. Partridge shot from third to first on a lap 58 green flag after one of nine cautions during the race. Johnson led laps 66-86. Reed took the lead on lap 87 after another yellow and was the leader by a length or less to the fateful lap 99 crash. Hunt passed Johnson’s damaged car before they passed the starters’ waving caution flag. Eighteen of the original 21-car field Saturday returned and raced Sunday. The official finish behind Hunt was revised after the original posting given to the media. Positions 2-3-4 changed. The final top ten had Hunt, Thorn, Reed, and Johnson in the top four positions and all completed 98 laps. Joe DeGuevara finished a TS@I career-best fifth with 95 laps. Kevin Thompson, Andrew Allen, Eric Schmidt, from Roseville, Dodd and Partridge rounded out the top ten. Thompson and Allen ran out of gas and pulled to the infield.

The Reed/Johnson melee was not the only SLM crash that produced heated emotions. Danny Bopp spun into the first turn exit attenuator on lap 61, causing a nine minute red flag. He was unhurt. On lap 70 the cars of Brandon Loverock, Dennis Furden and Hunt came together on the backstretch with the Loverock and Furden cars eliminated near the third turn. Irate Loverock hurled his helmet at Hunt’s car and scored a direct hit as it passed under caution. At the green flag ten cars remained and all were on the lead lap thanks to several "lucky dog" free passes for lapped drivers. Partridge and Thorn (Friday late model winner) exchanged second position twice from laps 79-81, when Partridge slid up in front of Thorn to reclaim second in the fourth turn. On the front straight Thorn’s No. 16 hit and spun Partridge’s Eshleman No.88, which spun across the starting line at speed to the first turn grass. He angrily climbed out and gave a partial hand salute to Thorn as he passed slowly under caution. With eight cars remaining, fuel woes began claiming cars because of the numerous yellow flag laps. P. 6 Dodd dropped out on lap 89. P. 3 Eric Schmidt brushed the turn four wall on lap 91 and pulled off the track. P. 6 A. Allen slowed and stalled leaving the fourth turn, causing the final caution at lap 95.Reed was maintaining a half-length advantage at the time over pressing Johnson in an exciting contest between two drivers with bright futures in racing. The green flag flew on lap 96 for six remaining cars. Third place K. Thompson promptly pulled to the infield with fuel starvation. Third place Thorn was the final fuel-starved runner and he pulled to the infield on lap 99 as Hunt passed him on the backstretch for what turned out to be the race-winning pass. Hunt said his girl friend was unable to be present for his victory in the biggest race of his career.

LATE MODEL 75: The only feature completed Saturday night was the Auto Club Late Model 75-lap race that ran from 7:30 to 8:06 pm. Derek Thorn, of Bakersfield, started second in the No. 4 Four Star Fruit Chevy from Bakersfield. He led all the way in a close duel with 2009 Irwindale track champion Nick Joanides, who trailed by half a length at lap 65 when drizzling started. After running under the yellow to lap 73, officials ended the race with dual yellow and checkered flags. The winner earned $2,500 and runner-up $1,000. Third through fifth paid $600, $500 and $400, with drop-offs to $150 for last place. Fastest qualifier Brandon Davis finished third in the HPR No. 55 Monte Carlo. Travis Irving and Brandon Loverock completed the top five.

Matt Scott, 18-year old 2010 NASCAR All-American Racing Series late model track champion at Roseville, finished an impressive sixth after starting eighth in his first visit to Irwindale. Mike Johnson, Toni Marie McCray (from 11th), Kyle McGrady and Sean Woodside completed the top ten. Sixteen of 21 starters finished the 36-minute event, with 14 drivers on the lead lap. The race had one yellow flag incident on lap 24 with five cars running in close proximity and battling for tenth position. Carlos Vieira contacted Chris Holloway’s No. 44 Four Star Fruit team car to Thorn, sending Holloway’s car into the front straight wall hard at its right side. He stopped with bent wheels at turn one. Vieira’s car spun in the same turn, but he returned and completed 71 laps.

After rain abated Saturday night, officials started the SLM feature shortly after 8:00. Drivers completed 14 laps with Rod Johnson, Jr. leading in the No. 30 Position One Motorsports Chevy owned by King Taco Restaurants owner Luis Martinez, Sr. Then heavier rainfall resumed. After waiting 20 minutes to see if rain would cease, DeFazio postponed the event to Sunday with the SLM race reset to go the full 100-lap distance. Fans leaving the track under a persistent and heavier drizzle shortly before 9 pm were disappointed. They had no way of knowing what wild races awaited those able to return the next afternoon under sunny, but windy and chilly conditions. Those races surely will be talked about for years at TS@I.

ASA HAS PLENTY TO OFFER FOR YOUNG GENERATION RACE FANS

DAYTONA BEACH, FL - Recent news reports are stating that viewership on televised race events are down 29% among the 18-34 audience.  This is an audience that auto racing needs as it transitions from one generation to the next.  Short track racing especially needs this generation of fans and competitors as well.

“We should not ignore this demographic, we need them to be involved as a fan, competitor or crew member,” Dennis Huth, ASA President said.  “Our ASA Member Tracks and sanctioned series have many opportunities for that 18-34 age group.  In fact, we have opportunities for those under the age of 18 with entry-level racing to being on a pit crew and earning a scholarship to Ohio Technical College.  The sport of auto racing needs this generation.”

All ASA Member Tracks offer a cost effective entry level division.  No matter if its an asphalt or dirt track, there is a division to start out in.  For many, it’s a 4-cylinder street stock division or competing in a Legend or Bandolero car.  At the track’s discretion, someone as young as the age of 14 can participate.  

Meridian Speedway, an ASA Member Track in Meridian, ID, has a Junior Stinger division for ages 11-14.  Those young drivers must go through a screening before they can compete.

If the interest falls in the area of compact cars like Ford Focus, Chevrolet Cobalt or Honda Accord, check out the ISCAR Dash Touring sanctioned by ASA series.  This unique series competes at short track ovals in the Southeast using these styles of cars. 

Some may want to do more than turn left but may want to turn right as well.  In the Southwest, ASA ProAutoSports and the Bondurant Championship Race Series has a variety of road course racing opportunities.  

For high schoolers who are interested in working on a race car but may or may not be interested in racing, the ASA - Student Educational Series provides a great opportunity for a student to get involved at their local ASA Member Track.  A student is assigned to a race team where they work as a pit crew member.  Students can earn a scholarship to Ohio Technical College in Cleveland, OH, the 2009 School of the Year.

Some have graduated and now are still racing weekly at an ASA Member Track or have gone on to participate in one of the ASA Sanctioned Series where they are traveling regionally and visiting different racetracks.

“We cannot overlook this age group, we need them for this sport to continue and grow,” Huth said.  “ASA is committed to reaching out to the 18-34 ages of fans.  We have a variety of opportunities for them to be involved.  That also includes being a fan as they see the best live action and entertainment in their area.  All for about the price of going to a movie.”

The American Speed Association started as a single racing series in 1968 and is a fast growing racing sanctioning body today. The ASA Member Track program is comprised of asphalt and dirt short tracks along with road courses around the United States, as well as a variety of regional and national touring series.

Hantu Tanah Kusir

Sebuah film menggandeng bintang porno sedang menjadi tren. Baru kemarin film 'Rintihan Kuntilanak Perawan' menjadi buah bibir karena mendatangkan artis panas asal Amerika, Tera Patrick. Kini Maria Ozawa atau yang akrab disapa Miyabi kembali berakting lewat 'Hantu Tanah Kusir' setelah film pertamanya 'Menculik Miyabi' yang juga diproduseri Ody Mulya Hidayat dari Maxima Pictures.

Cerita di balik 'Hantu Tanah Kusir' sudah ramai diberitakan sejak Oktober lalu. Dari mulai syuting yang ditutup-tutupi sampai dibilang hanya mirip 'Miyabi'. Padahal banyak foto Miyabi saat syuting sudah tersebar.



Film 'Hantu Tanah Kusir' dibuka dengan adegan panas Siti Fatimah (Eva Asmarini Nurbayu) dan Samiun (Adi Irwandi). Keduanya sedang bercumbu mesra di sebuah rumah, namun tiba-tiba warga datang memergoki mereka. Pasangan itu pun langsung meminum segelas racun untuk membuktikan tanda cinta mereka.

Saat keduanya dalam keadaan meregang nyawa, Rohaya (Rheina Mariyana) datang. Namun ia hanya menolong Saimun-yang nantinya menjadi suami Rohaya-dan membiarkan Siti tewas dalam keadaan mulut berbusa.

Kisah berlanjut ke sepuluh tahun kemudian. Siti yang tewas datang meneror. Bak cerita 'Si Manis Jembatan Ancol' hantu Siti merasa tidak terima dengan perlakuan Rohaya dan ingin membalas dendam dengan menteror keluarga Rohaya.

Jupri (Zacky Zimah) adik dari Rohaya mewarisi delman Samiun, kakak iparnya. Sepi penumpang, Jupri meminta berkah di pemakaman Tanah Kusir (makam Samiun) lewat usul Kirno (Benu Buloe). Di makam itu ternyata delman Jupri tertukar dengan delman hantu Siti, namun delman hantu itu malah membawa keberuntungan, Jupri langsung kebanjiran penumpang. Suatu saat Odong (Yadi Sembako) membawa tamu seorang wartawati dari Jepang bernama Pauleen (Miyabi) yang ingin meneliti kendaraan antik Betawi, delman. Pauleen pun harus menginap di rumah Jupri selama beberapa hari.

Siti masih melanjutkan terornya dengan mengganggu semua orang. Dengan mengendarai delman, Siti hampir setiap malam patroli di kuburan Tanah Kusir untuk mengganggu setiap orang yang lewat. Lewat efek visual, beberapa kali Siti menarik kepala hingga putus atau menyobek daging bagian wajah. Ada juga adegan 'dejavu' yang dilakukan Siti, saat memesan nasi goreng, Siti menawarkan daging untuk dimasak si tukang nasi goreng. Klasik.

Kehadiran Miyabi di film garapan Findo Purwono HW itu secara garis besar hanya sebagai bumbu sensual saja. Dalam film tersebut, Miyabi juga hanya sesekali bicara dalam bahasa Indonesia, selebihnya bahasa Jepang dan Inggris. Dialog yang diucapkannya itu pun bisa dibilang hanya sekadarnya saja.

Adegan yang dilakukan Miyabi pun kebanyakan hanya lepas, pakai atau ganti baju untuk mempertontonkan tubuh moleknya. Demikian pula dengan tokoh Janet (Shinta Bachir). Ia seolah ingin menunjukkan kalau keseksiannya tak kalah dari Miyabi.

Meski posternya terlihat cukup horor, 'Hantu Tanah Kusir' ternyata lebih banyak menampilkan kelucuan dalam kisahnya. Inti ceritanya seperti tertutupi oleh akting kocak Zacky Zimah, Yadi Sembako dan Kiwil. Kehadiran Miyabi menghidupkan kekonyolan dari ketiganya. Namun tetap saja, film ini tidak menawarkan sesuatu yang baru.

GOOD NEWS FOR THE KING

Racing Assets Of Richard Petty Motorsports Purchased By Richard Petty, Medallion Financial And DGB Investments

Concord, N.C. (November 29, 2010) - Racing legend and all time NASCAR win leader Richard Petty is back in the driver’s seat.

Richard Petty Motorsports signed and closed a sale of its racing assets to an investment group comprised of Richard Petty, Medallion Financial Corp. (Nasdaq:TAXI) and DGB Investments.

Richard Petty, a seven-time NASCAR champion has won 200 races, including 10 Daytona races. Known in the NASCAR world as “The King,” Petty will serve as Chairman and will be actively involved in overseeing day-to-day operations of the company. As previously announced, the team will operate the legendary No. 43 car driven by AJ Allmendinger and the No. 9 car driven by Marcos Ambrose.

“Today is a great day for me, my family, our fans and our wonderful sponsors. Ford, Stanley Tools, Best Buy, Valvoline, Reynolds, Air Force, Super 8, Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA), WIX Filters and Menards have supported me through thick and thin and I thank them from the bottom of my heart,” said Petty.

Andrew Murstein, President of Medallion Financial, commented: “We could not be happier to be able to acquire these assets together. Richard is one of the greatest names, not only in NASCAR, but in all sports. His name and image are a world recognized brand with unlimited potential to grow and expand in racing. Ample working capital has been invested in the company to insure this great team and legend will not only continue to perform, but will thrive and be back in the winner’s circle.”

“George and Foster Gillett deserve a great deal of credit for running a successful race team,” commented Petty. “They made a significant investment into the business and helped get back into Victory Lane. Going forward, we have put together an all-star ownership team consisting of myself, Medallion, and VeriFone CEO Doug Bergeron.”

Medallion Financial, a publicly traded investment company, has invested over $3 billion in companies since its IPO in 1996 and its board members include such notables as former New York Governor Mario Cuomo, former Connecticut Governor and Senator Lowell Weicker, and another “King” of his sport, Hank Aaron. The Murstein family is the largest shareholder in Medallion, owning approximately 20 percent.

DGB Investments is an investment vehicle of Canadian-born investor Douglas G. Bergeron, CEO of VeriFone Systems, Inc. (NYSE: PAY), San Jose, Calif. In 2001, Bergeron and DGB participated in the acquisition of VeriFone Systems from Hewlett-Packard in a transaction valued at $50 million. Today, VeriFone’s market value exceeds $3 billion dollars and Bergeron remains CEO and one of the largest individual shareholders.

Douglas Bergeron commented, “With Richard Petty’s unmatched name and reputation in the motorsports industry, I know this investment is well-timed to succeed. We are going to help put Richard Petty Motorsports back in Victory Lane.”

Richard Petty concluded, “Our partnership with Andy Murstein and Doug Bergeron will help take us to a whole new level and I could not be more excited about our future.”

STILL RACING UP FRONT

CANADIAN BEER WAGON RACING IN FLORIDA

DETJEN'S COOL MOPAR

POLAR BEAR 150

ROCKINGHAM, N.C. (November 27, 2010) – Kurt Busch’s best finish at Rockingham Speedway in a NASCAR Sprint Cup race was second.

Thanks to a dominating performance by Will Kimmel, Busch was not able to better that finish in the Frank Kimmel Street Stock National Polar Bear 150 at the track. Kimmel led 148 of 150 laps en route to his first victory at the track. Busch was the only other lap leader after going making the racing four wide to briefly move out front.

“It was a little intimidating to look back and see the No. 22 (Busch) in the mirror,” said Kimmel from victory lane.

But the Indiana native didn’t let the fact that he was being pursued by a former Sprint Cup champion rattle him.

“I was pretty confident in my car but at the same time it was pretty hard to keep it on the bottom where it ran the best,” said Kimmel, who started on the pole. “My guys built a great car today.  It was awesome. This thing just ran awesome all day.  This is great.  It's been a while since we've been in victory lane, so this is really cool.”

Busch had to battle back in the race’s second stanza after contact with Kimmel forced him to make a pit stop to pull the fender off the left front tire. After restarting twelfth, Busch passed both lead lap and lap-down cars and capitalized on a caution to get on Kimmel’s rear bumper over the last 40 laps. But as the laps wound down, Kimmel was able to use traffic to pull away.

“It was a blast,” said Busch, despite the contact with Kimmel. “It was just as much fun as I thought it would be. It was old school racing – toss it in sideways and drive the hell out of it. We got every ounce out it. There at the end I think we lost a cylinder. I could definitely feel the power loss.”

J.D. Frey finished third, with Chad Hall finishing fourth and Cliff Gaumond rounding out the top-five.

“It was a good day all-in-all,” said Frey, who works for Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing. “The car was not that great during the first half. We didn’t make a whole lot of adjustments on it, we just put a new set of tires on it and the car really came to life. I’m just happy to finish where we did.”

Chuck Barnes, the winner of the last two Polar Bear 150s, retired early after hitting the wall early in the second half.

“The car just wouldn't go after the restart,’ said Barnes, who started fourth. “I don't really know what was wrong with it.  Tried to keep up and stay out of the way and the car just got loose, and it got in the wall.  It wasn't right all day. We had to make some changes to the car before we came down here.  We didn't get enough practice in it.  It's disappointing.”

Brett Hudson, who finished second in last year’s Polar Bear, failed to make the race after his car engine blew up during practice.

The race was slowed by nine cautions for 42 laps. Ten of the fifty cars that started finished on the lead lap.

“It was as much fun as it always was,” said Busch. “There were all the lanes to choose from. We worked the low groove and the high groove. This place is so fun with the bumps and quirks. This racetrack, for sure, gets a gold star. Guys in our series (Sprint Cup) that are car guys – that are racers – should definitely be down here racing.”

RORY GALLAGHER - IRISH TOUR ( 1974 ) Resubido

Hola amigos , las cosas se fueron solucionando de una manera sorprendentemente rapida y en breve estaremos acompañndolos como siempre ,desde ya el eterno agradecimiento por el apoyo brindado a traves de los comentarios y correo electronico . Y como se nos hizo un hueco entre tanto quilombo .decidimos pagar una  deuda sobre un pedido que nos hicieron por mail  hace unos dias sobre Rory  Gallagher.
Un abrazo blusero para todos !


RORY  GALLAGHER



Gallagher nació en Ballyshannon (Irlanda) en 1948, pero creció en la ciudad de Cork. Comenzó tocando en una orquesta llamada Fontana Show Band (que luego pasaría a llamarse Impact), pero en 1966 abandonó el grupo para formar otra banda. Aunque por aquél entonces tenía 17 años, ya era un auténtico virtuoso de la guitarra, siendo además de formación autodidacta. De hecho, con sólo 9 años ya tocaba en algunos locales del ayuntamiento y en las fiestas del colegio.

El grupo que formó entonces fue el fabuloso power-trío llamado Taste. Junto a Eric Kitteringham y Norman Damery, los otros dos miembros de Taste, Gallagher cosechó un gran éxito, sacando dos formidables discos y girando por toda Europa.  Pero en 1970 finalizó la andadura de este grupo, cuya última actuación quedó recogida en el disco “Live At The Isle Of Wight”. A partir de entonces, Rory comenzó a realizar giras con su nombre, rodeado de músicos como Gerry McAvoy, Wilgar Campbel, Rod De’Ath, Ted McKenna y otros.

Al comienzo de esta etapa de su carrera está enmarcado este “Irish Tour ’74?, grabado en 3 conciertos en Belfast, Dublín y Cork. Antes de esta grabación, ya había sacado tres discos en solitario (“Rory Gallagher”, “Deuce” y “Tattoo”), además de un directo en 1972. Pero en lo que muchos criticos coinciden es en que “Irish Tour ’74? es uno de los mejores directos de todos los tiempos. Desde luego, es, como mínimo, un disco que deja huella tras su escucha. El disco comienza con la presentación: “And now, Ladies & Gentlemen, Rory Gallagher”, y, acto seguido comienza a sonar la guitarra de “Cradle Rock”, un blues-Rock acelerado y poderoso, que engancha desde el principio. A partir de aquí, se van sucediendo las canciones, donde destaca siempre la personalidad que Gallagher imprime en su forma de tocar la guitarra, y que, van desde el blues más tradicional (según algunos, se nota una importante influencia de Muddy Waters en algunas de las composiciones de este disco) hasta terrenos más rockeros.

Algunas de las canciones, como “Tatto’d Lady” o “A Million Miles Away”, son, en mi opinión, obras maestras, que se quedarán siempre grabadas en la memoria una vez las escuches. Pero lo que tienen en común todas las canciones de este disco es que muestran la contagiosa energía que desprendía Rory Gallagher en directo, el terreno donde al parecer más cómodo se sentía.

Después de este impresionante directo, y aunque su etapa más fértil sería la década de los 70, Rory Gallagher aún tendría mucho que decir musicalmente, y seguiría sacando discos hasta 1990, y haciendo giras hasta 1995, año en el que moriría trágicamente, a consecuencia de sus excesos con el alcohol y los tranquilizantes. Antes de morir, se le intentó realizar un transplante de hígado, pero debido a complicaciones postoperatorias, cayó en un coma del que ya nunca despertaría. el 14 de junio de 1995 fue desconectado de la máquina que le mantenía con vida, falleciendo así uno de las más importantes figuras del blues y del rock, influencia para muchos otros importantes músicos. 

Seguro que muchos ya conocen a Rory Gallagher, pero, para los que no hayan tenido la oportunidad y el placer de escucharlo, les sugiero que comienzen a descubrirlo con este directo, que pasará casi seguro a ser uno de nuestros discos favoritos.

K&N PRO SERIES WEST TO EVERGREEN

2011 NASCAR K&N Pro Series West  Schedule Announced

58th Season Features 14 Races At 12 Venues

Submitted By Kevin W. Green, NASCAR

DAYTONA BEACH, Florida — The 2011 NASCAR K&N Pro Series West schedule, a 14-race package of events from February through November, was announced today by NASCAR.

The schedule includes visits to 12 venues in nine states as the West’s oldest stock car racing circuit celebrates its 58th season.

The 2011 season kicks off at Phoenix International Raceway on Feb. 24 and concludes back at the one-mile, D-shaped Arizona track on Nov. 12. The Phoenix events are two of three events in conjunction with NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races.

The schedule features a return to several tracks that had hosted NASCAR K&N Pro Series West events in the past. Included is a race on June 11 at The Bullring at Las Vegas Motors Speedway – where the series raced in 2001, 2002 and 2003; a race on July 10 at Evergreen Speedway in Monroe, Wash. – which hosted 50 series races between 1964 and 2008; and a race on Sept. 3 at Spokane (Wash.) County Raceway – a half-mile track that was visited by the series in 1979.

A key event on the schedule is the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East-West combination race at Iowa Speedway in Newton, Iowa on May 21. The fifth edition of the East-West challenge will be the same weekend with a NASCAR Nationwide Series race at the track 30 miles east of Des Moines.

Again in 2011, the schedule includes three road course events – Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah on April 30; Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, Calif., on June 25; and Portland (Ore.) International Raceway on July 24.

“The 2011 schedule for the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West features an expanded slate of events, with visits to key markets and top race tracks throughout the western United States,” said George Silbermann, NASCAR Managing Director of Racing Operations. “The variety of venues offer drivers and teams a great opportunity to showcase their talents.”

Other 2011 highlights include:

• For the fourth straight year, the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West will make two visits to All American Speedway in Roseville, Calif. The historic fairgrounds track will host the series on April 16 and again on Oct. 15.

• The series will visit Toyota Speedway at Irwindale (Calif.) on July 2, participating in the track’s big Fourth of July holiday celebration event for a fifth consecutive year.

• Two other popular short-track events on the 2011 schedule for the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West include a visit to Colorado National Speedway in Dacono, Colo., on Aug. 6 and a trip to Montana Raceway Park in Kalispell, Mont., on Aug. 13.
