For the second season in a row Haynes Racing and Teddneck Racing will team up to field a car for Bryan Haynes. After a successful second half of the season in 2011 which saw Bryan run the #37 at the front of the field, pick up a heat win, and drive to a 7th place finish in the classic the team is excited about the 2012 season.

Somethings will change for Bryan and Teddneck Racing in 2012, most notably the number Bryan will campaign. Bryan will switch from the #37 to the #87. “The #87 was my sisters number when she raced quarter midgets and has yet to be run by the Haynes Racing team since. I am really excited to bring the number out and it still allows me to be identified with both the Teddneck and Haynes Racing teams.”

Brad Haynes will also return in 2012 in the Haynes racing #86 with it renumbered to #88. Brad has plans for many changes to the Chassis for this year and is eager to hit the track.

Haynes Racing will be holding a fundraiser in May. Please stay tuned for more information.

After a long weekend the Haynes brothers posted solid runs in the SBS Classic 100 last Saturday night.

Bryan and Brad were both forced to qualify on sticker tires due to a lack of rims and practice time to scuff in the new tires. Bryan posted the 15th quickest time and locked himself into the show while Brad came up just short in the 23rd postion. Brad was forced to run the B-main on Saturday to determine his starting position. Brad finished the race where he started and rolled off from the 23rd position in the SBS Classic 100.

After a vicious wreck on the first lap which resulted in a red flag the race got under way. The track was extremely slick the entire night and most cars could be seen slipping coming off both turns 2 and 4. Bryan settled into the 12th position while brad steadily worked his way up through the field before being black flagged for allegedly leaking fluid. After entering the pits it was determined that Brad was NOT leaking fluid onto the track. Unfortunately this trend would continue throughout the night as the speedway pulled many other cars off the track and alleged the same problem.

At the 50 lap break Brad returned to the track several laps down.

Also at the 50 lap mark it was determined that Bryan’s right-side motor mount had become disconnected and the motor was rocking in the car. He decided to stick it out and nurse the car as long as he could.

After the restart a vicious crash involving teammate Cameron Rowe and JJ Andrews brought out another red flag. Luckily no one was seriously hurt albiet a bit sore the next day.

On the ensuing restart the #80 of Shawn Muldoon and the #50 of Tim Barbeau jumped the start and slid past the #37. Over the next several laps Bryan ran down both cars and passed them to get back into the top 10. Unfortunately when the next caution waved 4 laps from the finish the #80 and #50 sped by while the caution flag waved. The #80 was put the rear for jumping the last restart but a scoring mistake kept the #50 ahead of the #37.

On the restart the lapped car of Stan Gates caused a log jam coming to the green which allowed the #22 of Mike Bruce to slip by the #37. With only a couple laps left to the finish Bryan made one last attempt entering turn 1 on the last lap. The move stuck and Bryan slid past the #22 to finish 7th at the line.

In the pits following the Race Bryan protested the race which was not clearly conveyed to the tower. After the modified race Bryan went to the tower to discuss his frustration. He calmly showed the scorers and race director the discrepancy on the lap tracker to which they all agreed. Though the finishing order could not be changed Bryan will be awarded 6th place prize money for the mistake.

After rejoining the field at the 50 lap mark brad brought the #86 home to a respectable 18th place finish.

Haynes Racing would like to thank Teddneck Racing and the #77 and #27 crews for all the help this season. We would also like to thank our family, friends, and fans who continue to support us. Please check back soon for updates on next season.

After a last minute decision to drive up from Maryland Bryan, Brad and Scott Tedd worked from 2am until race time get both the #37 and #86 ready to race.

Bryan started on the front row in the second heat with the #37, at the drop of the green Bryan put his car out front and pulled out to a commanding lead. He would stay there for the entire race, caution free en route to his first ever checkered flag at Oswego Speedway.

After winning his heat race Bryan learned his teammate Dave LaTulip blew his motor during the heat race. Going into the night Dave was locked in a tight battle for rookie of the year honors with AJ Bernys. Hearing of the tight battle Bryan offered to give up his front row starting spot to give Dave a chance to settle RoY on the track. Dave climbed into the #37 and started last on the field for the feature.

Dave ran a solid race and came home in the 13th position making enough points to win Rookie of the Year!

Brad Haynes raced Bryan’s #86 to shake it down for Classic Weekend. Brad came home to a strong 14th place finish.

Bryan returned to action at Oswego Speedway this past Saturday in the Teddneck #37 SBS. After running solidly in the 19.9 second range in practice Bryan started third in the third heat race for the night. After clearing the #90 on the start Bryan settled in behind the #98 of Jason Simmons.

Coming off the 4th corner Bryan looked under the #98. As the cars dove into turn one the #37 and #98 made contact which also collected Will Hadcock in the #43. Both the #98 and #43 received heavy damage that ended their night. After going pit side the #37 was able to continue and picked up 4th place in the final run down.

There was some excitement in the pits after the race which saw Jason and Bryan talk it out in the #37 hauler. Simmons was rightfully up set and Bryan accepted full responsibility. “It was my fault, I knew I couldn’t make the pass and when I lifted he lifted, so I slammed the brakes to the floor to try and get out of the pocket.” said Bryan. “He’s mad and I understand that, he works hard on his cars, we all do. I don’t race dirty and I have never had a problem with Jason before this. I hope we can move past this, it is up to me to earn his respect now” Bryan concluded.

Brad Haynes and Scott Tedd got the #37 ready for the feature just in time to take the 4th starting position. The initial start resulted in a horrific crash for Barry Kingsley into the water barrels on the front stretch. A red flag, mini track dry, and refuel all took place before a single lap was completed.

Once the race got started the #37 moved up to the outside of the front row due to the #27 and #90 pulling to the pits for repairs. Bryan wheel the #37 side by side with Rob Pullen to take the green. In turn one Bryan ducked in behind the #2 and settled into the second position. After about 4 laps Bryan started to put some pressure on the #2 of Rob Pullen. Bryan’s teammate Cameron Rowe in the #77 followed right behind Bryan.

Unfortunately Bryan could not escape catastrophe on this night, coming through turn 4 the #37 got real loose and when corrected snapped hard to the right. Cameron Rowe with no where to go got into the #37 and saved Bryan from hitting the wall head on. This contact ended the night for both cars.

The teammates talked immediately after the incident and cleared the air. Cameron was not happy with Bryan but he wasn’t pissed, it was a racing deal. In the end he was happy to see the #37 and Bryan having a good run. “Cameron is a class act, he could have just blown me off and been pissed but he took the time to talk to me and point out some things I was doing right and doing wrong while running second. That is a good teammate…I gained a whole lot more respect for him after tonight” stated Bryan.

Despite the carnage that ensued around the #37 it was the best the car has run in a long time. The team received alot of compliments in the pits and from our fans in the stands. Teddneck Racing is excited about their shot with all three cars going into classic. The #37 will take the week off this week as we prepare for classic. Brad Haynes will pilot the #86 this week and he gets his ride ready for Classic.

Haynes Racing is still looking for Tire and Fuel sponsors for Classic weekend. Please e-mail Bryan at haynesy86@gmail.com if you would like to support our team.

Brad Haynes filled in for his brother Bryan this week in the #37 Teddneck SBS. Although it was reported that Bryan was in the car it was infact Brad driving this week.

This gave Brad a good opportunity to feel out the car and better. Brad ran very well in his heat race posting a 6th place finish.

Brad started 11th in the Feature and stayed close to the Top 10 for most of the race. Bunching up of cars cause Brad to spin the #37  on lap 14. With rain coming at Lap 19 the race was called and Brad was stuck with a 15th place finish. Brad and car owner Chris Tedd said the car was fast and needs some minor adjustments to get it where it needs to be.

It was a great night for Teddneck Racing as Cameron Rowe finally wheeled the #77 to his first win at Oswego Speedway. All three cars finished on the rain shortened night which had to make car owner Chris Tedd pretty happy.

Bryan will be back in the car for this Saturdays race August 20. It is “Pack the Track Night” and adult fans can get in for only $6.00!!! So come check out all the great improvements to the track under the new owners. Don’t forget to cheer for the #37 SBS and the rest of Teddneck Racing (#27 & #77).

Saturday August 6th was the first feature finish for the Teddneck #37. Bryan wheeled the car to a 13th place finish in a very exciting and physical Mr. SBS 35 lap race.

Early in the race Bryan raced around the Top 10 with Teddneck teammate David LaTulip. About midway through the race Bryan was run into by another car forcing the #37 to the top of turns three and four. Bryan saved the car but lost four spots. The #37 then developed and extreme loose condition that the team would find out after the race was cause by a loose pan-hard bar.

Bryan wrestled the car to the end of the race and ended the night on a high note for Teddneck Racing.

Brad Haynes will be in the #37 on August 13th before switching over the the Haynes Racing #86 for the rest of the season.

Haynes Racing would like the thank Doug Homes for his work on the motor in the #37 this past Saturday. Doug has also recently completed Haynes Racing’s second motor that will be put in the #86.
