I'm surprised that I haven't seen Isonhood mentioned. Maybe I missed it along the way.

Though Division 1 always had some stout door cars, Division 4 had a real murderer's row when it came to Modified.

The same Opel raced by Patterson and Wayne County wound up with Mike Edwards at one time also. I can't remember if it was his deal alone or something to do with Nickens when he worked for him.

Back in the 70s, even the little 1/8 mile tracks around here would hold a $1000 race a couple of time a year. The local guys loved it but then Hielscher would start dropping in and then Wayne County followed. Their Camaro was bad enough, but when they started racing the Opel most of the local guys pretty much just threw their hands up.
