NEW Track record 11.646 by Mike Collins. record was previously held by Ryan Kerr with a time of 11.908. great job guys so now you know the time to beat!!!

 I would like to take a minute to THANK my staff for the ALL American. I do believe this was the best worked and smoothest AAMC we have had to this point I could not have asked for a better crew. Dawn of J&M Electronic Scoring did one fantastic job. Smooth as silk and even the loss of power didnt even hold her up but for a minute or so. Thanks for an awesome job and a pleasure to work with Dawn. Turn out was a tad down BUT it was a blessing in disguise. 75 mowers put on one of the best cleanest events  ever. Racing was awesome from start to finish. STEVENSON ALABAMA and the fine folks there have the most beautiful facility hands down. They provided another awesome track VERY smooth this year, the leaves in full swing of color change made waking up every morning a sight to behold with the water all around. Ted and his crew did another awesome job. Highland Medical with the mobile Hospital wow what a rig.The stevenson Fire dept. again outstanding job. Folks this event just continues to be a breath of fresh air and simply put the finest event in the country. And last and most importantly you the racers. Thank you all so much for making another one that will be hard to top!!! and if you missed the 4 wide Super mod salute to the fans parade lap to finish the show out WOW that was so awesome. Gave me goosebumps. I reckon that will now be a permant part of the show. Oh wait what about that lil gal Beverly Gott singing the National Anthem. Never before not ever has a rendition ever put tears in my eyes but that one sure did!!! Thanks gurl for a beautiful job singing. from the heart. Thanks again and start planning now for next year the 2014 dates are  Nov. 7,8 and 9th. see ya there.

 BIG Changes are coming to ALL AMERICAN for 2013. FOR the first time it will truly be an independent event as I have always wanted. As it was always an event where ALL can come together it still remains so but now it’s truly independent and FULLY insured. With that said the all American will revert back to its original name, THE ALL AMERICAN MOWER CHAMPOIONSHIPS. While we will always remember Sam, its time to move on love and miss ya buddy. Over the years this event has continued to be the biggest single stand alone event in the country. The biggest diversity and variety of clubs and drivers from across the US and Canada gathered in one spot. IT takes allot to make this happen and we are already actively looking for event sponsors and even class sponsors. If you’re interested please give me a shout. The will be the best ever. Dates are as follows

Nov. 1st Open practice
Nov. 2nd registration and tech and then Qualifying.
Nov. 3RD No practice Feature races only!!! 30 lap features this will not change. It’s what makes the race what it is.
J/P class sponsor is taken as always by JSE racing. (Joe's Small Engines) Long time sponsor for this class and you never know what he is going to surprise the class with.
