RaceDayCT Live Coverage Of New Smyrna World Series Modified Action Coming Next Week

Snow covers the ground today across the Northeast, where Modified racing reigns supreme. 

But down in Florida the weather is perfect to get the 2021 Modified racing season kicked off. 

And RaceDayCT will have all the Modified racing covered from the World Series Of Asphalt Stock Car Racing at New Smyrna Speedway next week.

The nine-night world series kicks off today, but action for the Tour Type Modified division doesn’t start until Monday.

The Tour Type Modifieds will run five consecutive nights at the World Series next week. The division kicks off its slate of events with a 50-lap feature Monday at New Smyrna. The division runs a 35-lap feature Tuesday followed up Wednesday by the John Blewett III Memorial 76 lap event. Another 35-lap feature next Thursday sets up for the final event on Friday Feb. 12, the 100-lap Richie Evans Memorial event.

We’ll have a special live updates page each night of the Modified action in Florida with RaceDayCT’s Denise DuPont and Jim DuPont on site for every feature.

  1. Thank you!!!!! 🙏

  2. No mile long Covid lecture today? Interesting. Then again, it’s hard to argue that the end of the world is near when the largest modified field ever is rolling in to NSS.

  3. 🌈JD🌈, stupid is as stupid does.

    But then, you wouldn’t understand.

  4. BREAKING NEWS:: Doug Coby not driving in the first two Races !!!!!! i guess the goodfella comments of driving in traffic must have reached Florida in time……. AS reported on Speed51 …….Six-time NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour champion Doug Coby is returning to the World Series for the first time since 2019 and his third trip overall. During the day, he announced he will be competing the entire week – with Austin Pickens driving the No. 10 on Monday and Tuesday while Coby will jump into the machine the rest of the week. WOW the power of Race Day Conn…… LOL

  5. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    And if I told you guys, you wouldn’t have believed me.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪😝😁😁😁😝🤪

  6. See I don’t get that at all. You’d think Pickens would be putting the 10 at greater risk. He isn’t the driver that Coby is and does not have the experience Coby does and is more likely to be in further back in harms way. But it Coby’s car. Pickens is probably paying for the ride so we’ll see.
    I guess my question is why. Is some sort of partnership afoot?

  7. Doug,
    Steve Pickens (Austin’s father) is a partner of Coby’s with the 10 team. He talks about that on Episode 85 of Unmuffled.

  8. Why am I not surprised Doug hasn’t forked over the $5 to join Unmuffled.

  9. JD,
    Actually, Doug is a RaceDayCT Insider subscriber and longtime supporter of the site beyond just reading stories. He’s usually the only one who actually comments about what’s talked about on the Unmuffled podcasts.

  10. Thank You Shawn, looking forward to Raceday CT’s coverage.

  11. Interesting all the times I have proven I knew the content and old JD is Johnny on the spot when I missed something.
    Now the ball is in JD’s court. Why aren’t you a subscriber to Unmuffled JD. For years I’ve gotten lectured on race attendance by you and others making claims about your value to local racing without an once of actual proof. Why aren’t any of the frequent flyers subscribers to Unmuffled and show support for the single most important local racing media outlet. Forget the episodes that are great just pay the $5 because you value the existence of RaceDayCt. Pay for great content that is far less then you used to pay for a daily newspaper. You compliment Shawn enough but how’s that pay the bills. Now show you’re not just talk. The government has actually been sending most of you money the last year you didn’t really need and may be sending you more. Throw RaceDayCt a bone for Pete’s sake.

  12. Well, that goes to show the power of funding, sponsorships, partnerships, etc. I can’t believe Colby is getting out of the car and letting someone else drive. That is gnawing at him, eating him alive. There must be big money 💰 behind it, or the threat of losing funding. Does Colby have more than one car? Can’t he bring another along to let Pickens get some exposure? If Pickens wads the car, Colby is done for the week, or at a minimum, will have a hobbled car when he gets back in. Colby is not hoping to win a race or the championship of the week.

    Putting Austin in the car in the beginning of the week is just begging to wreck the car.

    Here’s Austin’s stats: https://www.racing-reference.info/driver/Austin_Pickens

  13. 🌈JD🌈 bellowed, “No mile long Covid lecture today? Interesting. Then again, it’s hard to argue that the end of the world is near when the largest modified field ever is rolling in to NSS.”

    Florida is the butt of jokes for a very good and well-earned reason. They are not known to be very smart. Florida is not the benchmark for all that is good. States like Tennessee, Arkansas, and Alabama are glad Florida is around to get the limelight.

    Stupid is as stupid does. 🌈JD🌈, you’ll never understand that.

    Well, since you inquired…

    🌈JD🌈, it’s the off-season, not much happening in racing to be impacted by the pandemic. Hockey is losing games quite often, the Super Bowl has drama because the idiot Chief’s players went and got haircuts at an infected barber, the NBA is near riot rage because the league is insisting on a high risk and useless all-star game, I could go on, but you won’t understand. But it could be safe for folks to make plans, schedules, etc., as long as they are not in a crowd and hopefully they are wearing a mask.

    But here are the latest pandemic statistics for the USA, these are as of yesterday:

    Total Cases: 27,407,324

    New Cases: 126,125 (This is a one day new case tally)

    Total Deaths: 470,705

    New Deaths: 3,572 (This is a one day death tally)

    Bring you attention to the New Cases number of 126,125. Remember a year ago when daily new cases of 25,000 was terrifying? Well, here we are. Just a couple weeks ago we were running 200,000 per day. And we have yet to see the impact of the UK, South American and South African variants that have recently arrived in the USA. It will be a few months until those variants fully blossom and start to take their tolls.

    There is an investigation into the real impact of this pandemic. It is believed by the experts that the numbers may easily be 10x higher. The number reported are usually highly restricted, exclusive and confirmed. There are many, many people that get infected and are not being treated, or are asymptomatic, and these people are freely spreading the virus. The number of people that have died due to covid is far higher, but often, many of these victims have underlying conditions, such as heart disease, pulmonary conditions, inflammatory conditions, etc. that are burdens, and then a covid infection is the last straw and the person can not take all that stress and succumbs, and that death is often declared a result of the cardiac, pulmonary, etc. conditions. Consider Texas… While covid was raging, they were reporting like 5x the number of pneumonia cases and an extremely low covid rate. Texas is a covid denier.

    And here’s the scary part… people that have been infected and were sick are showing that the perceived immunity after an infection is not lasting. People who were infected and sick are being tested to find out they are no longer carrying or producing antibodies. These people are getting reinfected.

    The experts have been saying that we might be able to get close to starting some semblance of pre-pandemic normalcy much later this year, if all people do their part and mask up, social distance, good hygiene, and respect yourself and others. The vaccine requires this behavior.

    The vaccines are promising, but how long they last is unknown, regular booster shots may be required.

    It is not fashionable, cool, macho, or smart to go to work while feeling ill. 🤧

    And it is verified that short exposure times of just a couple minutes of being near an infected person can be high risk. And that is indoor or outdoor.

    It will be interesting to see what states in the northeast will allow in the coming months.

    Be safe, mask 😷 up, wash often, and stay the hell away from me.

  19. Looking forward to it. Thanks for doing what you do.

  20. Viva Race Fan says

    Grow up please. Alot of people speak about some of the banter on racewayct . They think some this is there Facebook/Twitter vent. Let’s start 2021 with positive thoughts.
    Colby comment its about $.
    I’m sure they have a 2nd 10 car.
    Hope kid puts it back on trailer and all our local guys heck all the drivers come home safe so we have great shows in our Home town race tracks.
    God Bless Everyone.

    Maybe even a good football game for the fans. Most of us will be plowing and getting the States we live in open for business. Have to get that Track deal Gold Pass to watch the Florida races and more. Great idea.

  21. Well, Doug is on FaceBook. I am not. I don’t understand why people are obsessed with FaceBook. Doug and all his dysfunctional alter ego screen names are venting. From what I hear, FaceBook is like a grammar school playground, a bunch of whiny brats… like Doug.

    🤣

  22. Forgive me for intruding here but I have talked to by friend WeldingWonders and we both agree. Whether the feedback comes here or from Facebook we are not tone deaf with regard to either positive of negative feedback.
    I am logging the negative feedback from Viva Race Fan as well as the any on Facebook in the appropriate column . So far there have been almost no negative reactions to WeldingWonders series on DarealGoodfella and in fact quite the opposite. WeldingWonders seems very please with the reactions to his posts so far.
    As for myself, my posts are overwhelmingly content driven, overwhelmingly positive and on occasion have been received quite favorably.
    For the record here are some of the comments that have been generated for both WeldingWonders and myself over the last year.

    WELDINGWONDERS FEEDBACK
    *But haven’t you heard? There is no conflict. So just stop it! Welding wonders is a gift to this site. It’s good someone out there is willing to call out daknowitall.
    *WeldingWonders, keep up the good work. Dareals new forum name is Cliff Clavin. Thanks Mike H.
    *Hey Dareal Thankfully one of the posters (WeldingWonders) keeps track of all your rambling remarks because most of it is just gibberish that makes no sense.
    *Welding, sounds like someone is talking out of two sides of their mouth.
    *I think welding wonders is getting ready for another post for the big dummy Dafella. No problem Dafella. You ain’t goin anywhere for a long long time. 🤣🤣🤣🥒🥒🥒
    *Let’s say Waterford is sold someday. Dafella will still not go because the new stands were bought with Bemers money. And now he’s mad because people are believing what welding wonders is posting, direct quotes from Dafella 🤣🤣🤣
    *info on various drivers. Good job Doug, I enjoyed reading that post.
    *daRealBoy, go ahead and think in your mind that you are not attacking Melissa. Telling yourself one more lie will not make your life any less miserable. One of your ‘friends’ on this site, a fine gentleman named Welding Wonders once did an exceptional job detailing your prejudiced history on that topic.
    Moreover, I don’t need to look at her statistics because I know for sure that she
    *Bravo WeldingWonders, bravo.
    *Welding Wonders you again show the hypocrite that is Dadope. These guys crack me up. “Yes, believe in the science, believe in what the CDC recommends”, (which is all scientist), but don’t believe in the science of a vaccine, so they won’t get it. I’m getting mine today.

    DOUG FEEDBACK
    *Thank you, Doug.
    *Thanks Doug for explaining the sequence for Tom better than I did , not sure he’ll get it but we tried and Shawn you beat me to the punch Robinson was sent to the back , he should have been sent home
    *Doug thank you for your insights I swear you have an ability to see things I never could. This division is so competitive I can’t possibly predict who will win the season title. What a great year it’s been.
    *Great job on the dates Doug
    *Doug) Thanks for putting out the tour type mod schedule. I didnt even know MRS released a couple of dates already.
    *-Doug said:
    *I thought Arute said the sanctioning fees paid to NASCAR is the main problem, I don’t think he mentioned the purse paid to the drivers.”
    Go to the 46:40 mark in the Bottom Shot podcast with Jackie Arute Phil A. Jackie never mentioned fees. He referred to “NASCAR mandated exorbitant purse money for the most part a lackluster Whelan Modified Tour event” .
    That being the case does that change any of the observations you made?
    thanks for taking the time to point that out and to reply like a gentlemen, much appreciated..
    *Nice job DOUG, WE will see how the May 29th Conflict plays out. I am hoping that STAR runs their Race for those of US FANS, who will drive up to Southern NH, But out to Jennerstown PA way out near the OHIO LINE… Those concrete Highway seams will put you high stress mode out and back home… No thank you ..
    *Doug; Thanks for the suggestion! Brightened up a gray day for sure, with all that’s going on!
    *Thank you Doug, Really enjoyed the Video’s….. Humble Works >>>> in Racing……how can anyone not root for Stan and His Team…
    *Doug, thanks for that, LMFAO
    *Nice stats Doug! Interesting to note Santos has run a third less WMT races than the top two, but his percentages are not that far off. Also of note, I think Silk’s numbers will improve the most this year of the three WMT regulars. I think they found something last year and if they can stay on the positive side of the “luck bank”, they’ll be in the championship hunt.
    *Doug;
    Very thoughtful commentary on this and appreciated by me. You are correct, twisted up, and it really goes back to day one signing with JTG. But he was at cup level, which speaks volumes on its own merit.
    I thought if anyone could do it, he could realistically get top 15 in points in that organization.
    I was disappointed that he did not get picked up by a better organization this year, either at cup or Xfinity level.
    So I do now share that enthusiasm at least, that he can make something good happen here. I’d love it.

    There is no better advise Viva Race Fan then to suggest that WeldingWonders, myself or anyone else that engages in juvenile taunting and mockery grow up. If you consider the entirety of the content on social media as well as here that is more of an ideal the a practical reality. You yourself have not shied away from being controversial and juvenile on occasion.
    Be a tone setter Viva Race Fan. Be the first to post, be positive and informative and don’t do what the tone setters did in the first two posts in this thread. The first two being juvenile, Jake and I try to bring it back, a taunt of my post that misfired and then anarchy after the moderator makes a couple corrections. That’s the nature of comments sections. It’s like a box of chocolates, you never know what you will get.
    The reality is the constructive comments you brought to the forum could have been placed in any number of articles and been just as relevant and positive. Not sullied of distracted by the anarchy you could clearly see had unfolded. You chose to put them here simply because the juvenile behavior you condemn motivated you to pick this article for their placement.
    WeldingWonders tells me that until such time as more people chime in condemning his series highlighting Darealgoodfella’s rather unique posts that they will continue so long as Darealgoodfella provides the content. He’s really quite proud of his insult counter.
    I will continue to focus on racing knowing that when it comes to confronting Darealgoodfella I can never win. The best I can hope for it to look like “Little Marco” trying to attack Trump.

  23. Doug posted, “That’s the nature of comments sections. It’s like a box of chocolates, you never know what you will get.”

    Doug, you are such an idiot. Every box of chocolates I buy comes with a map that tells what kind of chocolate is in what location in the box. You can’t even figure out how to get around a box of chocolates!!!

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  24. I’m so thankful, I didn’t realize I lived rent-free in so many places.

    Thank you all, I’m humbled. So glad I can help.

  25. Well, Doug has a long history of fraud. His use of many screen names, and getting caught red handed, or ham handed, while posting the same post under two screen names. His attempt to pump himself up with fake screen names was pure psycho-pathological-pathetic.

    Donald Trump does the same thing, and we know how void of facts and narcissistic he is. Trump has used the names John Barron, David Dennison and John Miller, as entities to pump up the name of Donald Trump. Pretty sick.

    Don’t be surprised if Trump tries the insanity defense in the near future, given all the legal problems he is in.

    I live rent-free in so many different places.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
