News & Announcements:

Congrats to our 2025 winners: Quick Stick – Tim O’Neal, Street Stick – Jeremy Murray

General Membership Meeting/Lunch was held Sunday November 9, 2025 2pm at Hoss’s Restaurant Grove City PA wiht 25 attendees including 17 members

A huge thank you was extended to Heather and Darlene for all they’ve done and continue to do for UMTR.

A request is going out to the membership for volunteers to fill the voids from them stepping back from some of their responsibilities.  As Darlene says – she is not abandoning UMTR – she just needs to do a little less for us as she continues to care for her mom and Heather needs a little more time to juggle that busy working “single” mom life with 3 very active children while Troy works around the world.

UMTR is also looking for members who are willing to create a non-profit or LLC business structure for UMTR to operate with going forward.  Several members are looking at the do’s and don’ts for this to happen and will update as knowledge becomes available.

Frank continues to pursue the tracks to lock in a 2026 schedule and he is also looking into the possibility of having a stick shift bracket series along the lines of the Summit Index Series.

We are sorry if we missed getting the meeting/lunch information out to you.  Please know we will continue to update via the UMTR Facebook Members Only Page and the UMTR Website.  So please check both frequently and pass the word to other members.

See you at the Banquet – February 7, 2026 – More information will be forthcoming!!
