Gimmick Races ???


From Brian Danko's Whelen Modified Tour Report Dec. 4 2006: 


But there is word out the NASCAR is trying to lure tracks like Jennerstown and Holland with gimmick races. These races, if the rumors were somewhat true, would consist of triple 50 lappers or some idiotic races with the tracks paying around $35,000 and NASCAR kicking in money to fill out the purse. If NASCAR wants to make a sweetheart deal with these fine tracks, both of which are good tracks for the modifieds. That is fine but make them 100 lappers or one 150-lap events. Don't get into gimmick races like was done a few years ago at the Thompson Speedway when they ran triple 100's. The racers hated it and the fans hated it. A lesson is to be learned but when is the last time that NASCAR listened to the racers or the fans.
