As Late Model numbers drop, they are switching to Modifieds for the car count. The USMTS is running on Thursday night for $3000 to win points race and they normally draw 50 cars for that. I would guess the rules will be very close to USRA rules which will draw 150-200 cars. This is a GREAT move for Cedar Lake and if you haven't seen USRA MODS, they put on a very very good show. Question is, Bloomquist and Owens ran the $20,000 to win Mod show last year at Mississippi Thunder Speedway. How many more Late Model will run this show?

Lucas Oil has a 20k to win race at Magnolia that weekend so if they are running the series again next year then they would not be able to unfortunately -
I see WOO was off last year on this date and LOLMS is at the MAG in 2017.Comment

This show will have only 70-80 mods at it, which is still a great number but these huge money mod shows never pull over 100 mods. Its USMTS on Thursday so will probably be USMTS style on Friday Saturday, which will eliminate any IMCA guy thinking of running it, as well as most of your average Wissota guys.2012 events: 40 - 2013 events: 29 - 2014 events: 26 - 2015 events: 29

It is too bad they can't find some common ground to let UMP guys like Long, Harrison, Leka, Kinder,etc. race. They may not go anyways, but it would be awesome to see them all race togetherComment

It ain't worth having!Comment

I'd say there will be over 100 mods there. The Junghans Memorial drew 123 for $10,000 before it rained and the makeup drew 92. $2500 just to start the feature is a good payday so I'd expect it to draw the cars.Originally posted by widlmfan View PostComment

Cedar Lake draws a lot of USMTS cars for the $3000 to win shows. I'm going to guess 125 cars or more. Also would surprise me if Deer Creek or someone puts together a big dollar race before or after the Masters to make it a week long deal.Comment

Depending on conflicting events, whether they get a few UMP guys and how well the Wissota crowd turns out I would bet over 100 rather than under.I hate time trials.Comment

The Masters usually has the UMP hell tour late models that weekend.. So more then likely you will see Pierce,Babb,Feger, Moyer, Weaver, and those guys there.. I know Marlar, Old man Moyer made the trip last year.. If some guys can pull double duty that weekend, it could be a heck of a pay day for them.. But they will get anywhere from 75-100 modifieds, if not more.. And only 30-40 late models..Comment

So the masters won't include the hell tour this coming year? Or were you just saying the mods are running for the 50g purse? I know the purse was for the mods, but figuring that pierce/babb/weaver ran mods, i was thinking they might pull double duty.. WHo knows..lol.. to early to tell i guess..Originally posted by bloomy18018 View PostComment
