I really enjoy the modified races at the Burg (and Bloomington). There is a bunch of great modified drivers out there who put on great races week in and week out.
I also like the mini sprints. Their car counts have been up and they have put on some great races this year. A couple of races ago you had Rod Henning and Beau Stewart battling for the win with Stewart making a last lap pass for his first victory. Then last week you had Kevin Roberts, Jr. passing his father at the white flag also scoring his first win.
Chuck, you don't have to like every class of car that races at the Burg. If you haven't paid attention to the mini sprints for the last couple of years check them out. The Raceceivers have really helped speed up their part of the program and some of the drivers have gotten more experience and are looking better on the track. And we've seen a couple of those drivers compete in a sprint car (JR Douglas, Jason Soudrette, Boyd Wolff & John Race).
But I will admit when I'm at Lawrenceburg at a race without the modifieds it seems like something is missing. I'm glad they're on the card for the next 3 races and I look forward to seeing Kramer, Wieck, Harris, Corbin, Largent and the rest of the guys at the track.
