PA small blocks only? Big/small block challenge? A replacement for the Ice breaker at Selinsgrove? or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the Shadows Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 I'm not sure. I saw it on their Twitter as March Modified Madness 410 Sprint Cars + Modifieds. I tried to copy their announcement thing but it was too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the few they have put on a good show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAkulis Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Enough for a decent heat race. I think this illustrates how bad the fragmentation of the Modified division is. BB, spec 358, open 358, Deyo rules, WRG rules, etc… in contrast, a LM is a LM and a 410 Sprint is a 410 Sprint pretty much wherever you go 🤷🏼♂️ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leroy Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 It is PA spec rules. So that basically leaves just Big Diamond or Grandivew cars. But even IF it was an open or big block show? How many would travel all the way to Lincoln for for $3000 to win? Especially when you consider it is a stand alone show. No other mod races this weekend.

scottnorwood Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Felt bad for Cozze not being able to even start the race. He just missed a top 10. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Bayko Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 They were shooting for cars that don’t really travel for a pretty meh purse. I’m not sure what the thinking was here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racermurray Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 BAPS has scheduled modifieds for 3/18 . Hopefully they get more than 11 entries or I think you can kiss future modified races goodbye in that region . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe another couple weeks might make a difference? I do not know. But with the rules ,they are shooting for Big Diamond and Grandview cars. And those two tracks pay as much if not more weekly than what Lincoln was offering. There are also big money shows scheduled at those two tracks the first couple weeks of season, which is not for four or five more weeks. Could some teams still be working on their stuff?

con7 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I also think this was scheduled or at least the idea raised when everyone thought Grandview wasn’t coming back. Give those guys a place to race and maybe it can grow into something. Isn’t there a race at the Grove too this year? With Grandview now back and such lousy support, I wonder if it’ll be a one and done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJO Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 If you really think about it there really aren’t that many guys that run Big Diamond or Grandview that travel around. There are many that just strictly just run Big Diamond or Grandview period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillSmith Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I'm sure Lincoln's management was remembering 20 or so years ago when Williams Grove and Hagerstown would schedule Spring Modified shows and get at least a full field, often 40-50 cars. BAPS seems to steadily draw decent Modified fields. On paper it was a decent idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two things lured the teams that travel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagerstown used to have a fairly open 358 rulebook, but if I remember correctly, Williams Grove had a Big Block show and a PA 358 (Grandview/Big Diamond) show every March. I remember much whining and moaning about how the "Mud Turtles" dragged out the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
