They didn't want to have Haas Automation for the majority of the races. Either way the car will be on the track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 USAC in the late 60's early 70's actually had a Stock car division and a good following more in the Midwest. This was similar in popularity as Nascar down Sth. Here's a pick and some of the top drivers from 1971 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinfarmer Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) Looks like a nice track. Looked it up on MRP and saw that Mullens are racing there. Do they still make the Madman chassis? Edited July 15, 2023 by racinfarmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they still make the Madman chassis? It's a nice wide track and normally don't wreck much. Little disappointed. The track had a good low and mid groove and the high groove was a little rough but guys were still using it and making passes. After the heats and LCQ weather was coming and then they decided to grade the outside grooved for about 30 minutes. Was 8 laps left on the IMCA stock car feature which was a good race and they never got the mod feature in before rain came in. Mullens are no longer building the Madman chassis and I believe they are running David Stremme's Lethal chassis I'm sure with their touch.

It was a good car, but felt others fit me better. There is a track here that has become notoriously bad at farming the track. One night it was over 2 hours, last night it was 90+ minutes. I'd have loaded up and left if I'd have been there. On the flip side, we raced Deer Creek a while back when rain went from possible to imminent. They got a full show of racing done in 2 hours 15 minutes, including b-mains. Start pouring out as I was closing up the hauler.

Talking to the guy behind me thought he said they had 128 cars last Saturday and even with a short rain delay they still had all the races in before 10:00. Alway hear good reports on the way the program is run and the track prep from there. Tonight if they wouldn't have graded the track they had a good chance to get the full show in. The IMCA stock car and mod features were both 1000.00 to win tonight and the mod would have been a good race I think.

We won't be within 1500 miles of 141 and both cars need some help before they see the track again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busy this weekend and early part of the week. Heading up Nth next weekend. Then working Road America Xfinity Race the following week/weekend. They do have a IRA sprint car special at Plymouth that Friday we'll go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
