Paulie takes the 2008 Nascar Whelen All-American Series late model Championship at All American Speedway

2008 has been full of exciting, heart-pounding, thrilling weekends; they were all dull compared to this o­ne. Going into this weekend, we knew that we'd need to put the Bill McAnally Racing Ruth's Chris / Aim Sports Toyota Camry in Victory Lane not o­nce, but twice, in order to win the championship. The team pulled together, worked their tails off, and made it happen, making us the 2008 NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Champions and running our win total to 11 at Roseville, California's All-American Speedway.

This past weekend may very well have been o­ne of the most fun of my racing career. Myself and the entire Bill McAnally Racing team brought home three wins this past weekend with our Ruth's Chris / Aim Sports #16 Toyota: o­ne trophy dash and two 50 lap main events!

After flying back to All American Speedway (Roseville, CA) o­n Saturday evening after the Miller Motorsports Park (Salt Lake City, UT) NASCAR Camping World Series Event, our Ruth's Chris Toyota Camry picked up our sixth win of the season!

This past weekend was o­ne of the most bittersweet of my life. The sweetness came o­n Saturday night, where after working tirelessly o­n Friday (staying at the BMR SHop until 1 in the morning) and Saturday, our Ruth's Chris Toyota Camry picked up its fifth win. Unfortunately, calls to close friends and NASCAR Technical Director Steve Peterson to inform him of the good news were never returned.
