The Fayash Memorial Race for the Sportsman Modifieds highlights this Friday’s action at Big Diamond Speedway
This Friday night at the Schuykill County oval it will be the U.S.S. Achey Sportsman Modifieds headlining the action as they compete in the “Fayash Memorial” race.
The special race will pay $1,570 to the winner with $157 just to take the green. Matt Stangle and last week’s winner Mike Mammana have to be considered the favorites to battle it out for the big prize but drivers such as Doug Hendricks, Shawn Light along with a host of other drivers will be looking to take home the big money as well. Look for a few invaders to come in and try to steal the big money away from the track regulars.
After what seems like an eternity the Steel and Metal Service Center 358 Modifieds finally returned to action last week with point’s leader Craig Von Dohren taking the win and extending his points lead over the rest of the championship contenders. Now is a good time for the 358 Modifieds to start tuning their cars for the upcoming money races hitting the track in the upcoming weeks. After this Friday’s show on August 25th will be the “Prelude to the Coalcracker” which will be 40 laps and pay a cool $4,600 to the winner. The season will then close out with the biggest race of the year for the Modifieds on Sunday September 3rd with the running of the $10,000 to win “Jack Rich” Coalcracker 72.
