PCMS Holds Their Annual Meeting at the GN

The Phillips County Motorsports held their annual meeting at the GN on Saturday, March 19.

"I'd like to thank everyone for coming tonight," said PCMS President Dan Stout. "I think we'll start off with the meal and then get down to the meeting and presenting the awards."

As the meeting got underway, the first item of business was to nominate three board members. The two incumbents, Dennis Bebee and Gary Mathwich were re-elected. The third open seat was won by Dan Olson replacing his brother Dave.

The club then voted on the President. Dan Stout was the only nomination and was unanimously voted in to continue that position.

The floor was then opened for nominations for the vice president position. Only one nomination was made for that as well. Shane Carnahan was voted in unanimously and will now be the vice president and track manager.

"I'm excited to have the position of VP/Track Manager," said Shane Carnahan. "It's going to be a very big learning experience for me, but I'm confident that I can do the job. PCMS has the best group of board members and I surely wouldn't be able to do it without them. And I'm truly honored to get the person of influence award this year. It means a lot to me."

Jacy Stolem is stepping down but will continue to be the track secretary/treasurer until a replacement can be found.

The board also voted for the Person of Influence award. This is an award for a person that helps out and makes the track what it is. The vote was close, but the winner was Shane Carnahan.

PCMS President Stout then handed out the awards for the 2021 track points and the winners of the IHRA Summit Super Series.

The 2021 Hi-Line Drag Strip points champions were: Ava Lloyd – Junior Dragsters, Alvin Hollatz – Sportsman Class, Larry Lloyd – Pro Class, and John Enno – Super Pro Class.

For the Summit Super Series Awards, Ava Lloyd won in the Junior Class, Garrett Lloyd took the Sportsman Class, Larry Lloyd took the Pro Class, and John Enno took the Super Pro Class.

After the meeting, Stout told the PCN, "There is only one change for this season. The second race weekend in June was moved to July. Other than that, it will be good racing as usual. We're hoping that our friends in Canada will be able to join us this year. I was hoping some would be here tonight."

The first race weekend of the year will be June 4 and 5. The usual kickoff weekend with the annual 1st State Bank car show downtown, followed by a test and tune day on the 4th, and points racing on the 5th.
