Hilltop and Ohio Valley, Friday and Saturday: $1,500 to Win!
The Renegades of Dirt Modified Tour presented by Arizona Sport Shirts has added two shows to their 2014 season schedule. On August 1st the RoD will invade the Legendary Hilltop Speedway for $1,500 to win and on Aug 2nd the Ohio Valley Speedway for $1500 to win, in an exciting double header weekend against the AMRA’s best. “Race fans are highly anticipating the ‘shootout’ between the traveling series regulars from at least six states and those who have made the local area their stomping grounds since dirt modifieds got their start in the region over twenty years ago.”

The battle will begin on Friday August 1st as the RoD Modified Tour presented by Arizona Sport Shirts will invade Legendary Hilltop Speedway in Marietta, OH for the first night of the “Ohio River Shootout”. Saturday August 2nd will be the second night of the “Ohio River Shootout” at Ohio Valley Speedway in Lubeck, WV. No AMRA Points at Saturday's race.

Atomic Modified Special Saturday: $1,500 to Win!
The Atomic Speedway near Chillicothe, Ohio had already planned 'what was one of the best bargains in auto racing' with a full slate of 410 Outlaw Ohio Valley Sprint Car Association sprint cars and the powerful AMRA Late Models on Saturday, August 2 for AP Green Night. Atomic is one of only a single handful of tracks nationwide that runs both classes on a regular basis. Now on top of this, Atomic will run the Octane Race Products AMRA/Advanced Services Modifieds for a whopping $1,500 to win and $175 to start, plus Street Stocks, Sport Mods, and an enduro all for just a $12 general admission. AP Green employees from Oak Hill will be admitted for just $5.
With limited tracks running for AMRA points this weekend, Atomic Speedway management decided that it would step up to the plate and make the trip worthwhile to the AMRA membership running for AMRA points.
Vallery Chevrolet and Acord's Pizza and Subs stepped to the plate to sponsor the Modified event for the weekend.
