    2015 UMP DIRTcar Modified Rules posted

    Did I read that right - as in NO SPOILERS? Guess they want to maximize the amount of wrecked cars... brilliant o_O

    Do You Think Tracks Should Use 500lb Uke Tires For Corner Markers?

    Only for protecting the ends of walls and poles. Using them in the corners like Tri CIty is ridiculous. I love the track but this is one of my biggest pet peeves. I've fixed a lot of damage to an A-mod from those things - in 2013 there were at least 3 A mods that flipped after hitting those, and...

    Tri-City Speedway HUMPY'S STATEMENT!!!

    Well after reading the first page - I will say this. If you do as someone said and "drop the late models and A mods" - you are done as a track. And "leaving them for the big money tracks"??? If there are none racing on a weekly basis - then WHERE are you going to get the ones for "the big money...

    UMP Mods will not have spoilers in '15

    The current horsepower on hard tires and no spoiler sounds like a crashfest waiting for a race to happen... Leave the rules alone. If Ya can't afford the HP there are other classes you can race in. My biggest thing is that they need to go with EITHER Street Stock OR Sportsman. Stupid to have...

    UMP Mods will not have spoilers in '15

    Well in my opinion - if it ain't broke, don't fix it. A Mods are probably the most popular class at most tracks - both in car count and fans. Leave the A rules alone and change the B's so that there is a significant noticeable difference between them and the A's. Why mess up a good class by...

    I can't imagine how much it must cost to run a full time traveling Late Model team... Surprised as many guys do it as there is. Not knocking it - just saying the cost must be astronomical...

    Musta been one of those special Mega dollar Impressive boxes. We didn't get one either. Have to jump on Jumper for not including one on ours... o_O

    Federated Auto Parts I-55 Raceway 2015 Classes

    Not totally related - but in my opinion I-55 and Tri City would be smart to get together and either run Sportsman OR Street Stocks. Get rid of one or the other so the guys could run both nights... And maybe run 4 cyl one week and B-Mods the next.

    Tri-City Speedway (late nights)

    Well I was there all 3 nights. What a stellar event it was! Kevin, Tammy, and everyone else working at the track deserve a hand for all the hard work. Super racing action, nice track, etc. That said - I agree that some things could have been done to speed things up. Running hot laps before...

    Slide Job -- How do you see this one?

    Looks like racing to me. You jump in front of somebody that quick - well we see what happens....

    best modified drivers that have never won a feature

    Congrats to Ems - nice race last night! Kevin Graf won a feature at St Charles Speedway back in the day. Looking to start winning them at Tri City - getting closer!

    Fire destroys Timmy Hancock, Jr.'s trailer & racecar on their way home last night

    That sucks beyond belief... :( Everything including the 4 wheeler... Don't know if vehicle insurance covers trailers and contents - but I sure hope so. My my my...

    Tri-City Speedway Photos from 6/6/14

    Did anybody see or video the big crash on the frontstretch? We were in the infield and none of us saw the beginning - just the end. Not trying to stir anything up - just curious what happened....

    Idea for local classes

    Changing the rules in this area won't help anybody out. You have to keep them the same as a large area of the country runs so that the guys who want to travel once in awhile can - without changing a bunch of stuff. Like UMP is now. I think that tracks should run 4 classes - LM, Mod, Cratemodel...

    What track will pick up sportsmans on friday's?

    I agree with mudface. Make it all one class and be done with it. We don't need any more classes of cars - makes the night go too long....

    Tricity rained out

    One little cloud in the sky - and it just had to be over the track.... Looked at my radar app and there was not one other rain signature in the whole metro area... Sheesh

    Tri city speedway is a joke

    Well - Genius - try explaining that next time in your post. And I have a hard time with someone who is so supposedly knowledgeable about racing - complaining about the dirt they race on. Sounds like you just like to whine. Would you like some cheese with it??

    Kevin Weaver

    IIRC - he got pushed off the track after that and they had to clean up a bunch of fluid from his car???

    Tri city speedway is a joke

    Well - considering that Michael Long started in the second row, and almost lapped KW before the caution on lap 21 - Don't think the start was very relevant in this case??? And when the grandstands face the South, and the wind is blowing from the South - the dirt is gonna blow in your face. If...
