WELCOME TO THE HOME OF THE 7K AND THE NORTHWEST RACING TEAM!

Owner and Driver: Patrick Fielding, Sr. Pleasantville, PA

This is a pic of my absolutely FAVORITE car (and driver!) *Smile* It's
the car my brother is driving this year (which in case you don't recognize the
class of car it is - it's a "Cadet" which is the class just below Limited Late

     and Super Late Models. Pat run his very first race on April 25, 1998
     at Stateline Speedway (Busti, NY) and though he didn't place first, second or
     even third - he did run very well for his first time out and finished both his
     heat and his feature. Alot of the other drivers there were impressed with his
     first run and said that with a little more experience on the track; he'll be running
     in the Top 10 in no time!   Needless to say, we are very, very proud of him
    *VBS*    Update ... on July 11, 1998 Pat took his very first CHECKERED
     FLAG and on August 23rd, he took yet another checkered flag!!!   *VVBS*
      Last race of the season was September 13th and Pat took his 3rd checkered!
     3 checkereds - granted, they may have been all 3 heat wins but for a rookie
    driver who started right out in the Cadet class, I think this is pretty good, don't
    you? *Smile*   Besides Stateline, we also run the Eriez Speedway track on a
    weekly basis, as well.

As for my favorite car and driver in NASCAR - well, I'm a fan of the #28
car and have liked it since Davey Allison drove it. In the 1997 season, my
driver was Ernie Irvan when he run in the #28, but at the end of the season
when the split come between the car and driver (Ernie went to the #36
Skittles car), I stayed with my car and also changed drivers. My #1 driver is
now .. Dale Jarrett (who drives the #88 car!) BTW, in 1998 - Kenny Irwin

is driving the #28 car and he looks to be a promising rookie driver.

As for local dirt-track drivers, I have quite a few favorites (though the 7K
will always be my #1 love *Smile*) Some of my favorite Dirt Late Model drivers are -- my friend, Dale Applebee in the 66A, Robbie Blair in the Won11, the #3s of Chevy Scott ; the 1* of Chub Frank . There are so

     many others who I really love to see run and respect but unfortately there's
    not enough room here to list them all *Smile*   In the Modifieds divison,
    it's TommyKristyak all the way in the #26z; although we share the same
   last name, before you assume anything, we are not related (with the exception
of course, that everyone who's really into racing are like one big family so, in
that aspect - I guess we are related *Grin*)

        I'm a fan of Bobby Clark in the #8 but also like Bob Felmlee in the
   #6 car ... both run at our local track (Tri-City) and also both, are All-
Stars drivers.   In the Spectator division, my car and driver is BobbyPowell
in the B20 - he is one of the hottest drivers onour local racing circuit.   In the
Cadets class,   as you know - the   7Kcar   is ours but we also have couple
of good friends who run in this division - Don Loney   in the #23R and Ron
Loney   behind the wheel of the #32T. Last - but certainly not least, in the
Limited Late Division are my friends, Butch Work in the #31JR; R.J. Peebles in the #5 car and also in the #18 car is Bill Catania, Jr.!   You can check out Bill's web page by going to:   (http://angelfire.com/az/cataniaracing)

Great photography and ... I've seen many really pretty Super Late Model
cars this season but Doug Eck's #03E ride is probably one of the prettiest that
I've seen yet; so - besides the 1* of Chub Frank, I'd haveta say that the pret-

iest Super Late Model car award should go to Doug!

Below are alot of different links to racing sites that you might like to check
out ...some are from the NW Pennsylvania area; some aren't but they are all
really cool sites that I know if you take the time to check out - you'll be glad

you did!
