spedfrk Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 I found the following on the IMCA website. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx South Texas Speedway sanctions IMCA Modifieds, Southern SportMods Posted on January 09, 2008 at 04:06:21 pm CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (Jan. 8) – Two IMCA divisions join Saturday night programs this season at South Texas Speedway. Modifieds and Southern SportMods will be featured weekly at the ¼-mile clay track beginning Feb. 16. Points races for both classes continue through Sept. 20. “I like the rules and the economics,” said promoter Owen Pittman. “We’ve spent the last two years as an outlaw track and I feel the rules have gotten out there too far. IMCA’s rules open the doors for more drivers to compete. They can go to a sanctioned track and know they have a shot at winning.” A former asphalt modified driver, Pittman owned the Texas Asphalt Modified Touring Series and promoted Corpus Christi Speedway before taking over at South Texas three years ago. “We’ll re-work the racing surface and add banking in both sets of turns in time for opening night,” he said. “Otherwise, the facilities are already in really good shape.” Sanctioned Modifieds ran at South Texas in 1996. Modified points earned at the Corpus Christi venue will figure toward SuperFlow South Central Region standings. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx This is great news. I like to hear their will be more banking in turn 1 and 2. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spedfrk Posted January 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 I would think Owen would run all local classes that date with a few test and tunes before. But I have not heard that from anyone...Just my Opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelracewriter Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Those may just be the dates that IMCA uses to collect points from, not necessarily the track's dates-----just taking a stab in the dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
