That latemodel race was Awesome!!! side by side, lap after lap. Wow!
The Speedbowl is a great facility that offers racing events for so many racers. The Monaco Modified Series will be awesome next weekend if the weather cooperates
Awesome racing as usual at the New London Waterford speedbowl. And what a great job by all involved to get 7 out of 8 feature races in with the threat of rain all day. That was a perfect example of how to move things along and change the schedule. That’s also why you don’t listen to idiot meteorologists that say there was a 100% chance of storms all afternoon.
