โ€ผ HELLLLOOO RACE FANS! โ€ผ

Great news for our fans that aren't local to Northern Michigan!

We FINALLY have an online store so you can order apparel to be shipped right to your door!

Big thank you to Dyanna with Mackellar in Rochester Hills! She helped fit the puzzle piece we've been missing!

We currently have our 77th Anniversary shirt available but that will be taken down in a couple months - so get your orders in ASAP!

There are youth sizes, sweatshirts, crewnecks, and long sleeves available as well.

Something to note - these are printed and made to order as they come in! This means it will take a while for your apparel to get to you - so just be patient! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Anyone has any issues shoot us a message as this is a new venture for us!

This year has felt so heavy!

Lately all we feel like we post are obituaries of incredible people that have touched our lives and this club.

Gene was definitely incredible. While his club involvement slowed down the last couple years, he was still always at Top O, always helping set up the pits, and always helping at the Crooked River Locks on Sunday to keep us all safe and honest. His involvement in the past was massive -a pillar of the TOMORC. Always wiling to help, always doing the jobs no one else wanted to do, always lending anyone a hand if he had one to spare. He was a great racer, mentor, and human being.

When he retired from racing, he lived vicariously through those who bought or borrowed his equipment as well as through his friends and their children.

We won't ever find the exact words to convey to you how much all of these losses this year have affected us.

However, we will remember them forever. They will live on in memories and stories. That will never change.

Race in Peace, Geno
We love you ๐Ÿ
