yeah, thats what im hearing, not many at all. its a shame cause with only a hand full of cars racing these drivers arent getting the experience they need. i do believe some race in delmar too though.

that is the truth. there is no consistancy with the calls, they do not tech the cars, things are unorganized and it is just poorly run. Friday night during the jr modlite race, the #25 kid didn't want to go to the back of the pack after spinning out, so he shot the middle finger at all the officials as he drove by and was allowed to get away with this. if this isn't a reason to bring out the black flag, then why have one?

WOW!, that calls for atleast a week suspension in my book, if not the track then the car owner

who is gonna go all the way up there every week for $275?? by the time you figure in all your expenses and tolls and everything going up there its not worth it... the better come up with more money than that to get cars.. thats just my opinion tho..

That is exactly right. Even if you win the $275, the gas and tolls alone would eat most of that.

How about when the show moves to Saturday nights next year against Delmar? Where are you going to race on Friday nights then? Open your eyes, Middleford Speedway does not care about the future of the Modlites and are concentrating on the future of their favorites, the winged cars. Looks like Bridgeport has stepped up on Friday nights to show their support for the Modlite class and you can still run 2 nights, Friday at Bridgeport and Saturday at Delmar. Support the tracks that support you!

That's kinda stupid. Numbers in the second half of the year were starting to rise. each class except the chargers and trucks picked up about two or three cars a night on average since the beggining of the year.

Well $275 sounds a heck of a lot better then a friggin trophy?? I mean $275 will definitely pay for 2.59 a gallon for unleaded, and $10.00 tolls.....i mean i think it all adds up to me.
