Robersonville Race Report
Tuesday June 4th 2013


The air temperature was not the only thing hot Saturday night at the East Carolina Motor Speedway. Racing action and tempers were also elevated. As always, the Late Model Race at ECMS was the main event featuring 12 drivers for 80 laps with $1200 up for grabs and $150 for the halfway leader. Eric and the Winslow Motorsports team unloaded with the ACE Speedway setup. Eric finished in the 10th spot at ACE on Friday night before making the trip down on Saturday. The car unload very bad at ECMS, but the crew made drastic changes throughout the day. Eric took a different approach in his setup for qualifying, but didn’t get the results he had hoped for. When the green flag flew Eric started his ascend towards the front. Eric made it up to 6th by the halfway point and changed the right rear tire at the break. On lap 41 there was a two car spin out that Eric narrowly missed. Eric and Wesley Johnson had a good battle going around lap 65, right before Eric was ready to make the charge to the front. Unfortunately, the night would come to an abrupt end on lap 73. The same two cars in front of Eric would spin out again this time collecting the #22 in process. Eric would finish 9th at what will more then likely be the teams last race at East Carolina Motor Speedway this season. We would like to thank our fans and crew members for the support during the season so far. Stay tuned for updates this week on where we will be racing next!

Eric would lose the lead around lap 70 and shortly after the caution would fly setting up for a short track shootout to determine the winner. The #22 Chevy would restart 2nd for the final 9 laps, but just couldn’t get a get start off of the line in order to clear the #12 of Wesley Johnson.

Double Dip Weekend for Winslow Motorsports
Monday September 3rd 2012

On Friday night Josh Van Winkle piloted the #44 Winslow Motorsports Chevy and Eric Winslow made his first ever start at Ace Speedway. The night was a short one for Josh as he suffered from engine problems and was forced to start and park. Josh would finish 15th in race number one. Eric went on to run race two on the night. As one can imagine, it was a learning curve for someone who hasn’t logged a lot of laps at the track. Eric started 15th on the night but was involved in crash on lap one and bent some of the right front up. Eric and the team were able to rebound and score a 10th place finish in his first race.

It would be a quick turn around for the team on Saturday morning as they worked hard to repair both cars. After the damage was fixed on the 22 and 44; they arrived at South Boston Speedway just in time for the second practice to get some track time on a hot Saturday afternoon. In the main race, Eric spun out and dismounted the nose of the car. On the next caution the crew had to cut the nose off. Throughout the early part of the race the car was loose so on the next caution Eric brought the 22 in to get it tightened up. This led into a long green flag run where Eric was really able to make some gains on the rest of the field and pass some cars on the outside of the 3/8 mile speedway. Eric got the toe knocked in when a car got into him with about 10 laps to go and the race would go on to finish with a green-white-checkered. Eric came in to change the left front under caution and went back out to finish the race with what he had left. Josh was faced with clutch problems all night and ran approximately 60 laps. He had a good car with great handling but could not put down the power.

Winslow Motorsports will take the weekend off this coming weekend in order to prep for their next race. Both cars will be at the track and in contention for a strong win.

Thanksgiving Classic Recap
Monday November 30th 2009
On Friday afternoon the Winslow Motorsports team loaded up and made the trip to Coastal Plains Raceway in Jacksonville, NC. Eric and the team were optimistic that they could close out the 2009 season on a strong note. During the Friday practice sessions the car was good, but it wasn’t perfect. Eric also didn't think it was “far off” either. The team unloaded on Saturday for race day and the car still held its own during the practice. The #22 chevy clocked in at a 16.59 during the qualifying session with the pole spot at a 16.00. The #22 would roll off 7th. When the green flag flew at the Thanksgiving Classic Eric held his own throughout the race maintaining the 7th place position. On lap 60 Eric said “the car was consistent on lap times and it felt good we just couldn't pass anybody.” On lap 100 the car was begining to feel better and was not as tight. The #22 Chevrolet just didn't have the speed to catch anyone on the straightaway, which hurt the chances of a strong finish. After he 7th place finish is Jacksonville Eric stated that he did feel that “we were prepared enough for the race.” We would like to thank all the crew, sponsors, and fans for making this possible. Stay tuned for an announcement on the 2010 season coming soon.

Robersonville Race Recap
Tuesday November 10th 2009

Eric returned to the track where he won the UCAR Championship in 2007 on Saturday afternoon. The Winslow Motorsports team unloaded with aspirations of continuing that success with a win at the East Carolina Motor Speedway. The race was run in two 60-lap segments with a big payout going to the winner. Eric had a solid qualifying run clocking in 5th fastest out of a 15 car field. During the first segment the team had a real good car for the race running in 3rd for most of the run. The mandatory caution came out that allowed the team to change tires, add fuel, and raise the car up some. During the last 60 laps something changed with the car and the car went away from Eric after restarting 3rd. Eric would make a late race charge and the 9 car with 5 laps to go. With only 2 laps to go Eric overdrove the corner causing the car to get loose. That would open the door for the 51 car to make a move but in the process got into the 22 Chevy sending it in the wall. Eric would bring the number 22 home for a 6th place finish but feels that he could have done a lot better. Winslow Motorsports would like to thank all the crewmembers, sponsors, and fans for hanging in with us during this tough 2009 race season. The team is hoping for a successful season in 2010 so stay tuned for all the updates during the offseason.

Mason Dixon 500 Race Report
Tuesday October 20th 2009
The Winslow Motorsports team loaded up and headed to the South Boston Speedway on Thursday for the Mason Dixon 500. The team would once again face adversity with a carburetor, pit road miscue, and track position playing a key role in the outcome of the race. On Friday the team unloaded with the admirations of a good qualifying run and solid finish in the main show. When the crew rolled the car through tech for first time NASCAR didn’t like the carburetor the team had on the car. The team believes it was due to the fact it was out of date and wasn’t in production anymore. After another carb was borrowed and placed on the car the team found a leak around the gasket. With time not on the teams’ side, Bruce Anderson was kind enough to let us use one of his for the weekend. Eric wasn’t able the get the best qualifying run due to a lack of power. When the team got to the track on Saturday morning they were informed that they had a provisional due to the track points. Eric went out and ran 5 laps in the heat race and parked it to save the tires for the main race. Eric would roll off 36th, last in the field. The starting spot put Eric behind the eight ball because when the green flag flew Eric was just leaving turn 2 due to the single file start. It really hurt the team and Eric found himself a lap down early and gave up a lot due to the position they were in. But as the race proceeded and the field got smaller Eric was able to make his way through the field due to the fact it was easier to move around the track. Eric and the 41 car made contact during the run but no damage was done to the #83 Chevy. It was then time for Eric to come in and get right side tires and fuel. The team had a good pits stop but left the screwdriver in the gas tank overflow and had to come back in. For the last part of the race Eric couldn’t make any passes on the track around the outside. Eric held in for the whole 250-lap race which was the longest race he has completed for a 20th place finish. The Winslow Motorsports team had a fun time at SoBo and look forward to having a stronger run next season. The team will return to act for the final time in 2009 at the East Carolina Motor Speedway on Sunday November 1st for the Octoberfest Late Model race that got rained out earlier in the month.

Motor Update
Tuesday September 8th 2009

The team is very excited to get the motor back soon to prepare for a big race in October at the South Boston Speedway. Winslow Motorsports plans to return to the South Boston Speedway on October 16-17 to run the Mason Dixon 500. Sponsorship is still available for this race; if you or your business is interested in this opportunity please contact Eric.

End Of Summer Update
Tuesday August 25th 2009
Eric and the Winslow Motorsports team would like to let everyone know what’s going on around the shop and the future plans are for rest of 2009. Eric sent the motor off to Washington, NC for it to be rebuilt again. While the team waits on the motor to be repaired the season is drawing to a close leaving us a small window to run the remaining races. The team plans to return to the South Boston Speedway on October 16-17 to run the Mason Dixon 500. Without any sponsors the team will more then likely not be making the anticipated trip to the oldest track on the NASCAR circuit, Martinsville on September 26th. If you or your business would like to help us get to Martinsville to run one the biggest Late Model races on the East Coast contact Eric, on the website.

Another Set Back for Winslow Motorsports
Monday August 3rd 2009

The team headed back to the famous South Boston Speedway on Friday in preparation for Saturday nights Imagine Halifax 150. Eric suffered some brake problems during the practice but knew the car was getting better. The team carried the car to the shop in Danville where Phillip worked on getting the rear end squared and making changes on the car for Saturday while Eric and Crissy worked on the brake package. At the track on the Saturday the car was loose in the practice sessions and Phillip got a chance to work on the car a little more and got it even better. For qualifying Eric battled a loose racecar and which put him towards the back. “I just can't qualify” Eric stated. After missing the scales post qualifying the team would have to start in the rear of the field. Eric would roll off 23rd for the 150-lap race. The car was really good and it was staying under Eric throughout the race. The plan was just to wait to get closer to the end and save the tires to make a move towards the end of the race. The team’s summer momentum came to a halt around lap 90 when the engine in the #83 Chevrolet blew up. "We didn't cause a caution or anything so that was good but its no good that we blew up again," stated Eric. "The car was so much better then it had ever been." The team felt like the car could have easily finished in the top 10 before the car blew up while running in the 15th spot. Phillip and the crew had the car handing real good for Eric during the race. Eric was running the lead pack of cars down as they were starting to fall off the pace more than he was, the #83 was just not as fast at the start of the race. After the 20th place finish the Winslow Motorsports team is not sure what will happen for the rest of the racing season. Due to the tough economic times and lack of sponsorship the team does not have the financial help to rebuild another motor. "We could barely get to the track and get by now with a blown motor the season is pretty much done for now unless something else comes up or we find a ride or win the lottery" concluded Eric.

South Boston Speedway Race Recap
Sunday July 19th 2009

The Winslow Motorsports team loaded up Friday afternoon and made there way to South Boston Speedway for Saturday nights Twin 75 lap races. The track held an open practice that the team took part in on Friday evening in preparation for two races. After a few practice sessions the team was optimistic about their chances in scoring a solid finish. The team would unload Saturday with a pretty good setup. Phillip Barnes interim crew chief said, "This is the best I've ever seen this car here." During the final practice Eric was scored 3rd fastest and renewed the teams excitement before qualifying. The qualifying session was two laps with the first lap to determine the starting position in race 1 and the second lap to determine the starting spot in race 2. Eric would not have the best qualifying attempt of his career when he drove the car a little bit to hard in the corners during the run. Eric would clock in 16th and 19th fastest respectively for the twin races. When the green flag flew for race 1 on the night Eric maintained his starting spot when the caution flew on lap 3. Eric would radio in to tell the crew the car was a bit touchy and that he could move up through the field if he would like, but also wanted to save his car. On lap 21 Eric felt like he couldn't get the car in a rhythm and it was tight in the middle. By lap 25 the 83 Chevy was running in the top 15 and by lap 50 during a caution would come down pit road for adjustments. Eric would restart 14th and held that position till the checkered flag for race 1. After the conclusion of race 1 the team would have some time between races to debrief and make all the adjustments needed to have the car handling right for race 2. Eric would roll off 15th in the 21-car field in race 2. On lap 20 Eric was scored in 16th position and by lap 38 the #83 Chevrolet was on the move up to 11th. The caution would also come out on that lap and Eric came down pit road for a few final adjustments and would go on to earn his first career top 10 finish at the historic speedway in 10th place. The team is excited to go back to South Boston in two weeks and try a few different things that they have received with a lot of feed back this weekend.

South Boston Bailey’s 200 Recap
Sunday July 5th 2009

Eric and the Winslow Motorsports team made their way back to South Boston Speedway where the team had a motor problem that put a set back on the season. Eric’s qualifying attempt was not great but as always he put on a show as he was sideways coming out of turn 2. After the fan appreciation night where Eric got a chance to meet some fans and sign autographs it was time to go racing. It would be Eric’s first full and longest race at South Boston with 200 laps. The number 83 Chevrolet would roll off 30th in the 33-car field. Before the start a few cars dropped to the rear and Eric moved up to 27th to start and that’s where we would stay for the first 20 laps. When the first caution flew on lap 9 Eric said that the car was loose and during the second green flag run he would fall back to 29th falling a lap down to the race leader. The team decided to pit on lap 46 during the 2nd caution. After Ernest made a spring adjustment Eric decided to start in the back and get some seat time instead of trying to race the leaders for his lap back. The race was red flagged on lap 69 when a five-car crash happened about a half a straightaway in front of Eric. The crew never gave up on the night and listened to Eric’s feed back on what to do to make the racecar better. The crew brought Eric in two more times on the night to try to tighten up the car after Eric said the car was tight in and loose off. The team didn't get the finish they were looking for coming in 22nd, but Eric did a great job of maintaining his line and letting the lead pack go around him, which gained him respect from the other drivers. The team loaded up the racecar, in one piece, and headed back to Scotland Neck.

Robersonville Recap
Sunday June 21 2009

The Winslow Motorsports team loaded up Saturday morning and headed back to East Carolina Motor Speedway where Eric finished 2nd last weekend looking for the win this weekend. The team took to the track on Thursday for practice and worked on the car to make it better for the race. Eric got some good feed back and made the necessary adjustments to car that he felt like would give him the best chance to get the win. During the practice on Saturday after the noon track temperatures climbed to almost 120 degrees which left all the cars sliding around the track. After the drivers meeting the team collected the race tires from impound and went out for the last practice before qualifying. Eric was last to go out during the qualifying round and clocked in 6th out of the 8th. When the green flag flew Eric settled in the 6th spot to conserve his tires for the end. Things started to heat up with the 3rd, 4th,and 5th place drivers as Eric made his move to the front. By lap 37 Eric was on the bumper of the 57 car and by lap 41 made the pass for 4th when the caution came out on lap 43.The caution was for the 28 car that got into Eric and spun out. Eric would restart 4th with 16 laps to go but it was the beginning of the end for the 22 chevy as the tires lost all grip and it was all Eric could do to bring the car home to a 4th place finish. Stay tuned for schedule updates in the upcoming week and don’t forget about our sponsorship packages and t-shirts in any size in stock now.

Fun night back at ECMS
Sunday June 14th 2009

Eric and the Winslow Motorsports team knew just the way to give two of the crew members, Bryan Everette and Phillip Barnes a good birthday present by finishing 2nd in the teams return to the East Carolina Motor Speedway. During the practice Saturday afternoon the #22 Monte Carlo was all over the racetrack. The team put a whole different setup in the car after leaving Coastal Plains, but ended up returning back to the same setup on two year old tires. Eric drove the car a little too hard in qualifying clocking in at a 16.05 that was good enough for 4th fastest in the 9-car field. When the green flag flew Eric fell back in the field to ride before the car went south on lap 12 of the 75-lap race. The team got a much-needed caution and came in to make adjustments. On lap 24 Eric and the #75 car got together causing a slow leak in left front. Eric was still free off the corner right before a car spun in front of him bringing out a caution and sending the crew back to work on the next pit stop. When Eric restarted he had a great side-by-side battle with the #28 car. The team wanted to make adjustment before lap 50 when teams could only change 2 tires and fuel with no adjustments during a special caution. They got what they wanted and restarted 3rd for the final 25 lap shootout. The caution flag flew for the final time with 7 laps to go and Eric came in for one final round of adjustments before restarting 5th and getting by the #75 car on his way to the runner up finish. The car finally started to come around to him at the end but the leader was to far away. The team was confident that they could have contended for the win with another caution. "We woulda had something for them." Eric stated at the end. "Hopefully we can get sponsors and we'll be here next weekend." Winslow Motorsports looks to run at South Boston Speedway when they have twin races and make a few more appearances at Coastal Plains Raceway and ECMS during the 2009 campaign. Eric and the Winslow Motorsports team would like to thank all the fans, track officials, and David Roebuck at East Carolina Motor Speedway for putting on a fun and great event Saturday Night.

Eric Winslow and the crew returned to the track where they made a name for themselves last year in the Late Model Division. On a misty and overcast day at Coastal Plains Raceway the team battled a slick racetrack, which in turn made the car hard to handle. Eric had to get the car dialed in during the first practice and after some adjustments got the car to where it felt good. During the second practice the team put the race tires on but did not realize the left side tires where bad due to the slick track conditions that caused problems for other teams. Eric had a strong qualifying run clocking in 5th out of the 14 cars for the 60-lap event. After the drop of the green flag the car was terrible loose and Eric started falling back by lap 10 and needed the whole track to race someone. Eric finished in the 8th spot one lap down to the field. "The left side tires were junk," Eric stated. "We have got some work to do." Winslow Motorsports will be back at the track June 20th for the UARA race with sponsorship still available for the race.

Plans for the Remaining Season
Sunday April 26th 2009
As many of you know we had a engine blow at SoBo during the season opener. That was a big setback for Winslow Motorsports after just having that engine rebuilt for this year. The oil pump is what caused our motor issues, we didn't turn to many rpm's or anything like that , Just one of them things. We are expecting to have the engine back to race on May 9th. Not having much financial help is going to limit our schedule at SoBo quite a bit for 09 so we will be picking select dates for the remainder of the year. What will happen after May 9th remains to be seen. One race on the schedule that we will be attending is the Uara Stars at Coastal Plains Raceway Park on June 20th. I'm excited about returning to CPR and seeing how we stack up against some of the stars in Uara. I really have to thank my crew , fans & sponsors for understanding and helping us get back going after this engine problem. This has been a tough pill for us to swallow. Thanks

South Boston Race Report
Sunday March 21st 2009

Winslow Motorsports finally made their debut at South Boston Speedway Saturday afternoon in the NASCAR Late Model Stock Car Division. Despite turning some fast laps in the morning practices Eric and the crew fell victim to a blown engine on lap 36. Eric battled a tight handling racecar in the corners during the morning practice sessions and the team made a few adjustments to free him up a little. After the drivers meeting it was time to qualify for the first race of the season. Eric clocked in 17th fastest in the 24-car field leaving a lot on the table. When the green flag flew the team was confident in a good run out of the 83 Chevrolet. By the time the caution flew on lap 6 Eric was still maintaining his 17th place position. Eric held his own behind car 03 trying to save the car and be around and have a chance at a good finish in the end. But on lap 36 after reporting to the crew that he was coming into pit next time by the 83 lost power in turn 4 and heading into turn 1 the engine blew up causing a 24th place finish. The team loaded up the car disappointed after all the hard work that had been put in to the car during the off-season. The crew arrived back in Scotland Neck late Saturday night and began to take the motor out of the racecar finding a hole in the oil pan and a broke rod. Just a couple of hours later the engine was out and will be evaluated this week. The team would like to thank all the sponsors, crewmembers, family and friends that have supported us so far is year, Thank you.

South Boston Practice Report
Sunday March 8th 2009
Eric Winslow hit the track for the first time at South Boston Speedway in his # 83 Chevrolet Late Model on Saturday. Eric was able to run quite a few laps through out the day on two-year-old tires and was able to get a good handle on the car. After a few minor adjustments after lunch Eric recorded some of his fastest laps of the day under 16.00 seconds. Later on in the afternoon practice session the team established that the car was not up to par possibly due to an old clutch. The team decided to pack up and head back home to solve the problem before the first race this coming up Saturday. Although it was an unseasonable warm day as temperatures reached the lower 80s, which will probably not happen again until late April, the early forecast looks to be much colder for raceday on Saturday.
