Good Run at Barberton

We are picking up speed every time we visit Barberton Speedway, and this weeks' event was no exception. We started 16th finished 10th in a wild and crazy event, after being spun on the first lap. Our goal is to be in the hunt at this tough track, and we are finally getting there.

Look for in-car video soon.

Craig Schmidt Racing

Craig Schmidt has raced stock cars in the NE Ohio area since 1996. From 1996-1999, Craig won 15 races in Monte Carlo SS and Malibu Trophy Stock cars at Painesville Speedway, finishing second in Trophy Stock points in 1999. During the 2000-2001 seasons, Craig raced in the NASCAR Weekly Racing Series Grand National Division at Lorain County Speedway in South Amherst, OH and won 4 races.

Health issues prevented Craig's return to racing in 2003. With the health issues resolved, Craig raced a partial schedule in the Northern Ohio Legends Series in 2006, 2007 and 2008. Craig raced the full season in 2009, finishing 9th in the final overall point standings, and 4th in the Masters Division.

In addition to running the full schedule in 2010, Craig has been named President & Promoter of the series, now with a title sponsor and renamed "TeleCommunity Credit Union Legends." He will continue to maintain the series website, www.northernohiolegends.com .
