Unsettled weather forced Big Diamond Speedway to postpone last Friday night’s “Topless” Modified show until this Friday May 11th.
The dirt oval nestled up in “God’s Country” will once again try to get this first-time event done and in the books.
The Mattera’s Electric and General Contracting 358 Modifieds will race for a first-place prize of $5000 in the 35-lap feature event. The difference in this week’s race is the modifieds will race in “Topless” fashion minus the roof, windows and door posts.
It will a different view for the fans as they will get a chance to see into the cockpits of the high powered Modifieds. The fans will see how these drivers are forced to manhandle the over one-ton missiles around the track and witness what it takes to drive one of these small block modifieds. It should be a fun and wild night for all and you won’t want to miss it!
