My question is how will they decide who gets the "free pass" provisional since there is always some form of controversy with them at any bigger CLS hosted event, I think the fans and racers should demand to know this in advance.

No Late Models at the Masters, this year?

[Mud]

No Late Models. Just late model drivers if they race a modified.

[Mud]

Jimmy Mars has it on his schedule.

[Bubstr]

Sorry to hear about no LMs. The good thing is, I don't have to deliberate how far it is for a LM show. Are they still running the WOO LM in August?

[Mud]

Yes, and I already have my tickets and campsite for my motor home. See Cedar Lake Schedule: http://www.cedarlakespeedway.com/pag...79297-schedule

The Masters this year will draw over 100 of the best Modified racers in the world. Thursday night is a $3000 to win USMTS show and Friday is qualifying for Saturday nights $50,000 to win, $2000 to start A-Main. Riches Modified event ever and it should be a good one.

I'm guessing a lot of LM guys will get mod and go for it.. maybe 10 notable driver's??

[Mud]

Many of the MB Custom Drivers own both mods and late models. They are all bad fast at Cedar Lake.

[bullring]

Lucas and woo both have races that weekend so don't plan on any of those guys

Thought I read a month or so back somewhere, that Chris Simpson will be running a Mod a few times this year.

This is a huge modified race, but not the biggest ever. It's funny how many have forgotten about the Alltel 100, which paid $100,000 for modifieds way back in 2004, back when $2,000 was a lot of money for modifieds. Of course, Bloomer built himself a modified and with virtually no mod experience, he took the $100K home.

Still, it's good to see the mods back on the map with another huge event. This should be a very good one, with easily 40-50 top cars there who can legitimately be considered contenders.

I don't think he built it himself.

Yes he is and so is Jason Rauen.

[pushin cushin]

I don't think he built it himself.

I want to say it was built buy Jeff Taylor out of Arkansas. "Shaw by Taylor", maybe??
Someone on here will remember for sure.

You're probably right, I should have just said Bloomer "got himself a modified".

It was a Shaw, whether it was a Taylor one I'm not sure. I think we will start seeing more and more big money mod events. Some don't like them, but if it's a place that draws decent cars, they are as good a show as any.

Yes it definitely was a Shaw, he was even going back to Larry's shop to add "aerodynamics" after he had seen what some of the other guys had done. As far as a Taylor/Shaw I don't think they were even out yet??
