Oskaloosa, Iowa (March 30th, 2016) – With the unpredictability of mother nature many wondered if the Southern Iowa Speedway was going to open the Frostbuster Series. Mother Nature never dropped any liquid sunshine at the race track so racing was ran and there was excitement and wild races.

Under The Radar Music: Junior Brown
Posted on by KBOE Administrator
This guy looks and sounds like a throwback to the 50s, and is also a guitar monster. Jamieson “Junior” Brown was born in 1952 and began his music career in the 1960s.
In 1985, Brown invented a double-neck guitar. Brown called it the “guit-steel”. When performing, Brown plays the guitar by standing behind it, while it rests on a small music stand. The top neck on the guit-steel is a traditional six-string guitar, while the lower neck is a full-size lap steel guitar for slide playing. Brown has two guit-steels for recording and live work. The original instrument, dubbed “Old Yeller”, has as its standard six-string guitar portion the neck and pickups from Brown’s previous stage guitar, a Fender Bullet.
Here’s one of his better-known numbers, called “Highway Patrol”:
The rather amusing video for “My Wife Thinks You’re Dead”:
Finally, for something completely out of left field, here he is with Stone Temple Pilots, from David Letterman’s Late Show:
Next Stop Martinsville Speedway
Posted on by KBOE Administrator
Next stop Martinsville Speedway for Sunday’s S-T-P 500, sixth race of the 2016 Sprint Cup Series and the first of the season on a short track. Martinsville was the venue for one of the most dramatic moments of 2015 as Matt Kenseth put the brakes on Joey Logano’s three-race post-season winning streak.
Kenseth drove into the back of race leader Logano less than fifty laps from the finish of the Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500 on November 1st – sending Logano into the wall and to the garage for repairs as the Eliminator Round of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup began. Kenseth’s car was crippled from earlier contact with Brad Keselowski and he was running many laps down to Logano when they made contact, a retaliatory move on Kenseth’s part after the two had also gotten together two weeks earlier at Kansas Speedway.
Logano started from the pole and led 207 of the 454 laps that were run before Kenseth sent him into the wall and to the bottom of the Chase standings. Kenseth drew a two-race suspension for his actions. Logano had been one of the hottest drivers in the post-season but never recovered, failing to qualify for The Championship 4 at Homestead-Miami Speedway and finishing sixth in the final standings.
