DOUG CLEVELAND

For Doug Cleveland it began at Westboro Speedway in 1975.

"First race of the season, said Doug, "Being a rookie I started in the back of the pack and in the feature I saw a hole that didn't end up being totally there and I ripped the rear end out of the car. That was a pretty rough track but I loved it."

It's been a lifelong love affair with NEMA from then on for the entire Cleveland clan with Doug racing his own equipment for much of that time, supported by brothers, uncles, girlfriends, and wife Linda, to whom Doug proposed to at a NEMA banquet.

His first win came in 1977 driving for Jim O'Brien in St. Pie, Quebec.

And then it was over 16,800 days before the next one at Lee USA. He didn't have to wait as long for the next at Waterford this year. Two end of season races.

"Lee is actually the better track for me," said Doug. "Waterford seems to me like over the years I've had some decent runs but never as good as I had this day. The strange thing is the last two races that I've won I almost didn't really want to go. We got there late both times. We got a good parking spot both times. This time I got there late enough so I couldn't make the first practice. I didn't have tires. (Bobby) Seymour was out in Indiana so I was going through my pile of tires and I picked out the best ones I had. So they were all used tires except for my right rear for the day because Peter Valeri came over and said 'I understand you might need a right rear tire.' I said 'Well yeah, I do, what do you want for it?' He said, 'Go out and win.'

"I won my heat, walked over to him with a little trophy and said 'I'm halfway there.' After the feature when I won it I went over to him and said, 'I did what you asked! Thank you!'

"Towards the end of the race (Paul) Scally was right there and he got inside me going down the backstretch and actually got ahead of me but as we were coming out of the corner I kinda squeezed him down and he had to back out. I saw Randy at the end of the straight away and I caught up to him and slowed down in the corner to use him as a pick. That's how I ended up winning it by two car lengths."

He won, as usual, with a car of his own making.

"I bent the tubing, welded the tubing, made all the suspension points, made a lot of the suspension parts. I try to use whatever I can in the house and the garage instead of going out and spending money on it.
"One time I needed something to turn my fuel on and off right out at my injectors and I was trying to figure out how to do it. I found a curtain rod holder and made that work."

A Mopar engine powered him to his last two victories. "I've had help with this one through John Andruk from Circle Performance. I go down to his shop and he helps me out, but I basically did the original Mopar and I'm pretty much using all those parts.

"I like the quickness of the car, it's a small enough car so I can continue to work on it."

What's next for this NEMA legend?

"Two years ago I was thinking of retiring, said Doug "and every time I get to that point I end up with a win, so I guess I'm going for another season.

"I'm like a block of cheese. I just get better with age."

Gene and Marilyn Angelillo were, for decades, the backbone of NEMA. Starting in 1983 Gene amassed 107 wins and 14 owner's championships. He also was president of the club for several years with Marilyn serving as secretary. The majority of his success came with Drew Fornoro, with Joey Payne, Jr. and Russ Stoehr also winning championships for him. Racing royalty drove Gene's cars, including the late Ted Christopher, who won for him at Waterford, Jimmy Broderick, a Waterford champion, and Joe Gosek, a Classic winner at Oswego.

They were a perfect partnership in NEMA and in life. If Gene was the stern dad of NEMA, Marilyn was the den mother, looking out for everyone, and every now and then keeping Gene in line (not an easy task)!

Gene's legacy transcends more than NEMA. Along with way he picked up an ARDC championship, and his #45 Dumo's Desire midget raced everywhere from Florida to Arizona. Gene had the means to field almost any type of race car, even on a national level, but his heart was forever with NEMA and the midgets.

While their accomplishments in NEMA are well noted, their devotion to family was paramount in their lives. If anyone could mellow Gene, it was his grandkids. Marilyn and Gene absolutely adored daughter Laura, and grandkids Tiana, Cami, and Brooke. Marilyn left us in 2007, Gene in 2010. Laura kept the team going for one more year, winning a last championship for Gene and Marilyn with Russ Stoehr.

Winner of over 100 races, Drew Fornoro was a 9-time champion in the Northeastern Midget Association (NEMA) and raced 3/4 midgets, midgets and sprint cars throughout the country. He was inducted into the National Midget Auto Racing Hall of Fame in 2017 and the New England Auto Racers Hall of Fame in 2013.

Despite his significant accomplishments in racing, Drew's personality was even bigger! He loved interacting with his fans after the races, always a huge smile and kind word. He also loved to orchestrate cookouts in the pits for all of the race teams to enjoy. He held epic events at home during the summer for his extended family and close friends. Drew passed on in May of 2023.
