Curious

[Centeroff]

I'm curious if and how many if there were any major DLM races over 100 laps? Never heard of any over 100 but that would be interesting if it ever went down.

sante faye raceway in chicago had 150 and 200 lap late model races in the 70's...

Appreciate that highgroove. That's defiantly a war of attrition. Always wondered why they didn't have a major kickoff race like the NASCAR version of the Daytona 500. Prob be better for the end of the year because that would definitely do a number on the engine and rear end on the car. Be awesome to watch a 150-200 lapper for 100k payday

Florence had the ironman 200 for a few years, francis won the last one that was ran. Im not sure on the year when it stopped. If I had to guess, it was around early 00's or before.

I think winchester in Virginia still has their winchester 200. Not sure how the format works on it though, or what it pays. I know the ironman was 200 laps in one night for 25k I THINK is what it paid.

Z I would assume you would have 1 break for fuel and maybe tires? A 200 lapper at Eldora would be a sight to see

Hagerstown used to have the Hub City 150 which originally was a full 150 laps. The Winchester 200 used to be a full 200 laps. Motordrome Speedway in Smithton, Pa had the Motordrome 200 back when it was dirt.

I know Motordrome used to count caution laps, I think for the first 150 laps. I thought I heard Winchester used to do the same thing for the 200.

Macon speedway had several in the 70's. I'm not sure of the class because I was too young to know.

The Kevin Roderick Memorial was a 200 lapper.

Big Block mods run 300 laps this year at Oswego Speedway, Oswego NY. Was 200 at the fairgrounds mile track but they are on a little bit smaller track now. In fact, I think it's coming up in a few weeks.

The Ironman always had a 100 lap fuel stop though.

I don't know they are doing it now but on the mile track they did NASCAR style pit stops
