Here in the East we had along with Speed Sport a paper named Area Auto Racing News. It focused on east coast modifieds as well as central Pa sprints and even asphalt racing regionally. They had a few pages on the national stuff. Growing up in the glory days of our modifieds we didn’t need much else. Kind of funny to think you waited til Wednesday to find out all that happened the previous wknd. If you wanted top 5 finishes sooner you could call the tracks after midnight and listen to a recording. My oh my have times changed. Gotta say I wish we could go back every so often and enjoy it all the way we did.
