the derby gate will open for inspection at 7:00am/need all cars and mowers to come in the main gate at the north end of the park entrance/look for the signs we want to make sure all cars and mowers are thru the inspection line in a timely manner so we can start the show on time. will have a line for big cars and a separate line for mini cars. we have good inspectors who know what to look for. please come built to the rules. we don't want to have to send anyone home. if something is wrong you will have an opportunity to fix it and come back thru the line.
there will be a separate area in the park for the mowers Michael will be checking those
we have cancelled the corn hole tourney. just not enough interest at this time/maybe next year
please try to bring some lawn chairs/there is not a lot of seating. we are working on getting new bleachers for next year. you probably wont want to sit down anyway with all the action going on.
we will have food ready by about 9-10am that morning/maybe a little earlier.
don't forget to get your derbytees bluff city bash event shirts(before they are gone) and some raffle tickets on the 2001 grand marquis(winner gets to take this home with them)and youth lawnmower(winner can run the feature at this event and take the mower home with them) giveaways.
if you have any questions just let us know and we will get you the answer.
thank you for your support

just about showtime.
we at parker motorsports LLC hope that everyone is as excited about this derby as we are. we are trying to put on a great show,treating every driver the same, for all you drivers and fans like they used to be here in rockport when I was younger. it was nothing to have 40-50 cars at each derby. we have over 100 years experience between all our car inspectors. we have great level headed flagmen including former and present promoters.
we want to thank in advance all the drivers,fans,sponsors and volunteers we have coming to run,watch and help us. couldn't do it with out you guys and gals.
also want to give a big thank you to the city of rockport,the cty parks board and the mayor. all have been very helpful getting us what was needed for this show.
I want to also thank my grandson wyatt parker and our partner nick miller. we have all been working our butts off to make this show a success
thanks again to everyone

first of all we want to thank all the drivers and fans for coming out to support our first event!!!. we had a very good turn out considering the rain. it rained all day long but it didn't damper anyones spirit. the track was great,we made it bigger and barricaded the walls. eveyone who came to watch or ran in the derby had a good time. we were very fair to every driver. we paid out the full payouts we advertised plus threw in some extra stuff for the drivers who ran. we want to give a big thank you also to the fire dept,the police dept,first responders,the mayor of rockport.the city parks board and all of our wonderful volunteers. also thank you to everyone for keeping the trash in the trash cans and to the drivers for not tearing up the grounds at the park as wet as it was.we appreciate it very much.it means more money in the payouts for next year.
thank you to everyone
