Dale Canterbury & Tina Wine - Dale and Tina steped up in 2005 when on opening night an unfortunate accident destroyed Kenny's brand new car. Dale contacted Kenny that night and asked him to drive his car that was not quite ready for Kalamazoo but had been recently purchased. We finshed the 05 season with Dale & Co. and the rest is history. Dale has raced himself for four years without much help and now he feels like he is part of a winning team with Kenny. Dale is the owner of D&R Construction of Battle Creek. Team Manager
Brian Whitney resides in Kalamazoo and is married to his wife Terry. He is responsible for keeping everyone in line as well as worrying sick about the car (though Kenny tries his best to keep him calm). He has been involved in racing for many years and has supported over 4 drivers as they realize their goals. His dedication and love for the sport has elevated Kenny to becoming a track champion in the Factory Stock Division (2000, 2001) and a track champion in the Limited Late Division in 2006. Crew

Super Shoe History
Back in 1987, a young scraggly looking kid from Indiana took home the top prize; this unknown kid?s name was none other than Scott Hantz. Then this old guy put a whoopin? on everyone for 3 years in a row, his name being Gale Cobb. Jeff Vochaska took over as the Top Shoe in 1991 and 1992, with Bob Schippers winning in 1993. In 1994, Andy Bozell picked up his first Super Shoe Crown, with Rick Sexton nailing it down in 1995 and 1997. It was Eddie Payne winning it all in 1996 and 1998, as Brandon Lyons took his first of his 4 wins in 1999. In 2000, Jerry Drake captured the coveted prize and Alan Vochaska took the prize in 2001. The Bozell brothers of Andy and Jeff won the Shoe in 2002 and 2003, while Mr. Lyons has taken the top prize the last three years in a row. 2008 saw maybe its toughest ?A? feature field yet, but was bit by mother nature and was forced to be rained out. Kenny Head paced the field with a Super Shoe Track Record with a time of 13.130. Other names like David Stremme, Mike Van Sparrentak, Tommy Martin, Tim Curry, Gary Terry, Burney Arnett, Lee Slaton, Jeff Ganus, Shawn McLaughlin, Tom Thomas, and yes, even Al Heritz have all tried to nail this one down, but like so many, it has eluded them all, and even iron man Rich Hardy, who is the only racer to have raced in all 21 of the previous Super Shoe events, hasn?t won the big one yet. Who remembers the time Joe Clayton drove away from an accident scene with a complete car and driver still on his roof? |
