Re: Old Modified Eliminator video
Those were the days.
Racing today is fun, but simply doesn't reach the level it did then.

Re: Old Modified Eliminator video
In my opinion Modified Eliminator filled a need that Comp and Super Stock, as good as they are, do not satisfy.
While it could be easily recreated I can see how it would be a problem squeezing it in national events without reducing the already too low car counts in Stock and Super Stock. I guess it could actually hurt Comp to bring it back. Nothing is simple these days. I think the most fun I ever had early on in my hobby was helping a friend run a 66 Plymouth Belvedere Hemi in C/Gas running Hilborn fuel injection. Sorry for the upside down image, I can't figure out how to delete it. Bill Last edited by 340Cuda; 03-26-2017 at 10:50 AM. Reason: Bad photo... |

Re: Old Modified Eliminator video
As much as I love Stock and SuperStock, I was lucky enough to grow up with Modified. I used to enjoy the UDRA championships races back in the day and through a lot of hard work and good friends I became the crew chief on a record holding A/SR. Nothing will ever replace Modified Eliminator but I have some great memories of it !

Re: Old Modified Eliminator video
I don't think Modified Eliminator, as it was then, could be revived today. I agree with Mike Edwards on that.

Re: Old Modified Eliminator video
"Great Video" If that doesn't bring a tear to your eye and a smile to your face then you never ran "Modified Eliminator".
