Since the beginning of the Mod Tour in 1985 there has been one driver who has finished second in the Championship Points seven (7) times - Who is he?

This is not a Mod "Tour" trivia question but definitly a Modified one:


Name the only "OUTSIDER" non Wall Speedway regular to win the Turkey Derby event?

Hey Openwheeler I think the answer is Jimmy Broderick in 1986

Being the big Broderick fan that I have been for years, I thought the same thing.  But the Openwheelracer neglected to specify that he was speaking of Tour-type Mods.  But you are correct, Jimmy was the only outsider to win the Turkey Derby in a Wall-Mod Sk type car.


FYI:  That was in the Circle Asphalt#40!  Mac even worked on that car.

Sorry everyone, should have been more specific. Who was the only "Tour Type" Modified Turkey Derby winner who was and "outsider". And interesting note: in the history of Wall Speedway from all the information i have seen, there has only been 4 Modified drivers who were outsiders who won on the tough high banked 1/3 mile, the already mentioned Jimmy Broderick, Gene Bergin, Ron "Boots" Cote (yes bootsie in a mod") and the driver who is the subject of the trivia question. Heres some hints: his Derby win was in the 70s, and he still races Modifieds today.
