JOHNNY REA!


Here is a pic of Ryan Godown from last year's running of the Freedom 76 at Grandview. The R-1 is owned by good guy Johnny Rea. Godown informed Johnny that he would not be returning to the seat of the R-1 for 2010.
The Godown/Rea team had their up's and down's in 2009. The team did win 2 of the 3 BIG races during the season. The Forrest Rogers Memorial and the Coalcracker 100 brought the team big pay days!
Johnny recently worked out a deal for Rick "Scooby" Laubach to pilot the car at Big Diamond Raceway for the 2010 season on friday nights. Laubach was the 2009 New Egypt Speedway champion on saturday nights. Rick will return to New Egypt next year to defend his title. The Rea/Laubach R-1 will only run T.O.T.H. events for the 2010 season.
