A bmain was lined up and we ran 1 lap to lock in those cars..in all honesty it was only 5 because the 10b had already made the show, but there was a driver swap as Stratton Briggs jumped into the car..Running 1 lap and locking meant no one else could jump in..thats why it was done the way it was..
Congratulations to Blake Edwards on winning the A Main feature and securing the Montpelier Midget Track Championship. It was a very hard fought battle between Blake and Billy Wease throughout the entire feature. It was everything you wanted to see in a race with a championship on the line.
We sincerely appreciate all of the different car owners, drivers, fans, and media who supported the series this season. We have learned a lot about sanctioning Midget races, and we want to continue to grow the series and track. We will have a survey out aimed specifically toward Midget owners and drivers in a few weeks to survey opinions and ideas for the future of the series next season. We will look at everything from rules, tire rules, scheduling, etc… This is YOUR series and we want to continue to keep it growing while maintaining the support and loyalty we have gained from the Midget community the past couple of seasons. Thanks again for supporting our family owned track and putting on great Midget racing for our fans
A comment from a fan but I sincerely hope that you continue racing midgets at Montpelier. The shows were excellent and the drivers put on quite a show. The speedway ownership took a gamble to try running midgets and from this fans perspective, it has become successful.
I hope that you can realize more success starting with 2014. We really enjoyed the modified racing as well and that says alot. I am not a big modified fan normally but your track seems to be a great venue that provides the modifieds a place to put on a great show.
Looking forward to hearing about the 2014 season at Montpelier. Keep up the good work.
Mike
Be nice to people on the way up. You might need them on the way down. Jimmy Durante
The 10 race schedule seems to be just right. Add a national midget show next year (Powri/USAC) and that should make a nice open wheel portion of the schedule. There are other things that I would like to see also, but that's for another discussion.
