Another great episode and very cool look behind the scenes. I hope someday you consider doing an episode about all the national names who’ve raced at the track over the years. Regulars like Steve Park and Geoff Bodine, to touring shows featuring Earnhardt and Richmond among others. And don’t forget the announcers like Mike Joy!
I've lived a mile away from the track my whole life and appreciate the behind the scenes look at the family business. You guys do a great service for the racing community and the town of Stafford!
I'm really enjoying all your videos man! Keep up the awesome content! Your family seems perfect for running the racetrack and the general love of racing and your speedway is truly amazing to see. Side note: your wife Jennifer and Cleetus' wife Madi could be sisters or cousins; they look so much alike! Is that how you got him to do his event there? haha
If you change the settings for perf cut to have a longer cut section before the blade lifts and cuts again you'll get a good perf cut. I set mine up so I have only a few tiny gaps in the cut.
Like the videos and work that goes on behind the scenes. Has Stafford considered hosting a ASA, UARA, or CARS tour race? SRX showed you can fill the place with full body cars. New England needs to host a true Super Late Model event and Stafford is the place to do it.
me and my daad both raced there.. him in the 70's Modifieds.. myself... much smaller scare on gokarts on mondays in the 2000's ... love that place. one year i saw the house off turn 4 for sale... i tried... and failed to buy it.
Started watching Stafford on Flo after Matt Vassar moved back to Connecticut from Georgia. Fantastic racing on a Friday night. Glad to find this channel!
1986 was the first year I starting crewing on racecars (Larry Vassar #69 Super Stock) I'm old. And great to see you let kids Vikings fans in your video.
Rub Shaving foam on the glass to stop them fogging up. just rub it on all over then clean off with clean paper it will leave a clear layer on the glass that will not fog up ;)
Funny you say that. When I was a goaltender in ice hockey, I wore Rec Specs, and my glasses always fogged up until I started rubbing Ivory Soap on them and then wiping it off with a cotton rag and it worked terrific.
What happened to Uncle Jackie? My father used to be the Chief Steward from the 60's, to the early 90's. My grandfather was Chief Steward when it was dirt. I believe the 1950's until his passing in the 70's. My father was really good friends with your family back then. I grew up at that track in the 80's. I also have met your dad, grandfather, and Jackie. What a great family you have. Ask your dad if he remembers the Grote's. That concrete steps you guys have in the infield was dedicated to my grandfather Francis Grote. Your family has always made Stafford speedway a great place. Keep it up.
What a wonderful video David! Really enjoyed meeting your family. It’s heartwarming to know that the best race track in the northeast and my Friday night home is in such good hands! Keep up the great work! 🏁🏁🏁🏁
Anyone who has not been to Stafford really should take a Friday night and see what an incredibly well run speedway is. I have been at Stafford since the late 70s and have watched it evolve into what it is today and crew on a team on Fridays. And to be honest, the last four years have really been something to behold. And if you've never been to a race ever, don't judge it by what you have seen on TV. You really have to See it, Hear it, Feel it, and Smell it and once you do I'm pretty dam sure you'll be wishing you had gone sooner. Wherever you live though S U P P O R T Y O U R L O C A L T R A C K S
Great family history lesson keep cranking out the good videos 🏁🏁🏁🏁

New subscriber, friends of mine used to go to Stafford and race RC cars at K&N. Keep up the great work, enjoying the content!
This has become one of my favorite channels.Getting to see the behind the scenes of the Best Short Track in the Country
whether the machine is right or wrong, that "mistake" is an easier tab to peel the sticker off. Love the vids

Grand tour of the rc stafford track
Hate to be the bearer of bad news. That track is taken apart now. We used the material to build the race control tower a couple years back
If you change the settings for perf cut to have a longer cut section before the blade lifts and cuts again you'll get a good perf cut. I set mine up so I have only a few tiny gaps in the cut.
So longer perf cut lengths I will give that a try. Does this work with rounded cuts as well or just straight
@@DavidAruteRacing all cuts

Thanks for sharing the family story! It's been too long since I enjoyed a race at Stafford Speedway. Time for me to get out there again.

Thanks for another phenomenal video! I love seeing the behind the scenes stuff and can't wait until the next video!
New favorite channel for sure 🐐
Spent many a Friday night at the track from about 12yrs to 30yr till I moved up north. Lots of great memories ❤
Great video
Rain X worked pretty damn good on my outdoor coolers.
Hey David, Great channel, keep the videos coming. So cool you guys keep the tradition alive.....
The pace car is great, but maybe you can put a new Stafford wrap on it to make it look updated.
Thank You Great video. Thanks for the introduction. New Subscriber!!!
You should have a race at the freedom Factory
1986 was the first year I starting crewing on racecars (Larry Vassar #69 Super Stock) I'm old. And great to see you let kids Vikings fans in your video.
Great seeing the faces that make Stafford One of the best.
You have a great family..Stafford speedway is one of the best.Keep up the great work.
Great video, cleaning the pace car tires looks like some fun, lol
Awesome story, great family. We are so lucky to have your business in Stafford.

RainX makes an anti fog spray. Might work for the cooler glass.
Your Dad was Born the same year as me I Drove from Georgetown MD on Friday and attended the race It was Awesome great show and I was rooting for you 😊

Good job 👍
Pumpkin Beer got to look into that!
TT mods and sk’s sound amazing. Wish we had em on the west coast
Hey Dave, so glad that SSMS looks NOTHING like the Waterford Speed DUMP! Keep up the great work, it definitely shows.
Need some UConn beer "husky hops" and "twoconn"
Pumpkin Beer is a thing here in NY too. BTW: Fall begins on 9/21…don’t sell summer short yet!
Use Rainx
What a wonderful video David! Really enjoyed meeting your family. It’s heartwarming to know that the best race track in the northeast and my Friday night home is in such good hands! Keep up the great work! 🏁🏁🏁🏁
why did you get the Carl pasteryak number? Carl and Charlie has been a friend for a long time.
I've watched Jack pit reports on ESPN back in the day, nice to be forty minutes from a speedway they operate today!!
Nice family of nice peeps ❤
Look up Chris or Jimmy Zacharias fir your graphic design stickers questions. I'm sure you've heard of them. The Zacharias family of racing.
you could try an anti fog spray on the inside and outside of the cooler doors
You obviously read the comments.....thanx Dave ❤️🇺🇲
Try Rain-X on your cooler doors.
Shipyard is my favorite pumpkin beer.
Good job team!🇺🇲👍🏁
paul does a ton of work!
How does Jack Arute fit into your family?
He is my Uncle
I would get a fresh blade for the machine.

ua-cam.com/video/S7_PSSOSLos/v-deo.html I use this method when cutting decals
So I think I’m mistaken. I was under the Assumption that you are or aren’t related to Jack Arute.?
Jack Sr was my grandfather
Jack Jr is my uncle
This video is about my families business
Balancer n damper are synonymous.... usually
Hm what's the pay for full time weed Wacker operator? Is weed wack all day to get into every race
maybe the blade needs changing
The cutter dull
Keep making these videos david
