Southern Modified Update; Modified Finale This Weekend

Georgetown Speedway will host the final race of the 2008 season for modifieds with the Turkey Chase being run tomorrow. This will be Georgetown's third race of the season, Richie Pratt and HJ Bunting won the first two.

The Southern Modified Series (information available at usmod.net) is currently looking for sponsorship. The deal will be run in 2009, but the more sponsors the more money that can be paid out to the drivers, and the more the series can bring to the table while looking for new venues. Currently, The Rock, Elkins Speedway, and Potomac Speedway are the first three tracks to jump on board. It looks as if Winchester could be the next to jump on board. Tentatively, the races will pay $1,500 to win and $100 to start, again, that's coming out of the promotors pockets, the more sponsors that come on board the more that increases.
