When the small track was dirt and the big track was paved at Volusia ticket buyers could go back and forth from one track to the other with one ticket. The northeast asphalt super modified's raced on the paved 1/2 mile and we'd walk over to the paved track during down time at the dirt track. We've never been much for short track asphalt racing but those cars were the most wicked fast, and some of the most beautiful, race cars we've ever seen. The power to weight ratio was close to that of F1 cars!
Sounds like the good old days right there. I do like the super modified but just as in dirt I prefer the SLM (for some reason). I guess the ability for a little cage rattling as Big E would say.

Yep, we did the same!
If you like pure speed, those super mods were the cars to watch!
Oswego itself has turned into a dump as for the racing surface. It needs repaved, bad. The super mods were unbelievably fast. We'd take a trip over when we went to see the sprint cars on the mile Syracuse. It was definitely a speed weekend.
