Red Rabbit Racing IMCA Truck!

Rick Mitchell(driver truck #66 )has been hobbystockracing
in Lethbridge and occasionally in Calgary lately. He spends
most of his time in Cranbrook B.C. driving a hobby stock car(#66)
at the CRANBROOK INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY where he won
the Hobby Stock Championship in 2005 and came in 2nd in 2006.
Some of Ricks sponsors include,

Rick's son Cliff also drives a stock car (#77)
in Cranbrook on the red rabbit racing team. Cliff
finished 6TH in 2005 and 5TH in 2006. He
has tried out High River and Lethbridge but prefers the
asphalt over the dirt.
Cliff also came to Calgary last year to race with his dad
at the nationals and performed quite well for his first time here.
Some of Cliff's sponsors include,
-MITCHELL'S EXCAVATING LTD.

The Rabbit team has done quite well this season finishing off the points race for the IMCA here in Calgary this past weekend with Rick #66 finishing in the top stop to take the 2008 CANADIAN IMCA CHAMPIONSHIP! Good on you Rick. Also Cliff Mitchell#87 captures "Rookie of the Year" as well as 5th place in the IMCA. Congrads Cliff. Don #20 also did well for his first year racing stocks taking home "most sportsman ship". In the 2009 season we could see one the team racing a Modified.hint:(87)

With the 2009 race season just around the corner the Red Rabbit race team is getting ready for a busy season. There will be no racing in Calgary but the boys are scheduled for 9 races in Medicine Hat this year with the regular races in Lethbridge.
As we mentioned the team has purchased a modified race car and hope to run in a few races this year for practice.
Watch for photos of the new car coming soon.

Good luck in 2009 to the RRR team.

The first race of 2009 for the boys was rained out, but
we had a good showing in Medicine hat last weekend. We
didnt win but finishing the race with no major repairs
is ok for the first race.
Rick will be running 2 seperate vehicles this season, one
for the dirt and one for the asphalt.
As far as car 20 and 28 go they wont be
running this season. It will be Ricks dirt car #66.

Cliff will also be running 2 vehicles as well, but 2
different classes stocks and mods.
Sunday after Medicine Hat we travelled to Lethbridge for
a Modified race and Cliff finished in 3RD
congrats cliff.


Rick ended up doing pretty good most of the season
but ended up placing third overall.


November took the race team to LAS VEGASfor the "Duel in the Desert" with Rick placing
10th out of 20 car feild.

Maybe next year they will take MODIFIED but
with a field of over 200 cars, she's a busy
couple of days.
