Re: Snowball Derby Purse all divisions

Snowball, in the pdf it says:
Quote:
MODIFIED ~ SUPERSTOCK
FEATURE 75 LAP RACE
Yet, the last time I looked on the website, the modified race is being shown as a 50 lapper. If it's 50% longer than posted on the website then not only my team, but a hundred more are gonna be unprepared.... Can you straighten this out for me (or straighten me out?)

BTW: I'm looking forward to meeting you at the track this year.

Re: Snowball Derby Purse all divisions

I sent a message to Tim Bryant (Promoter) to clarify this. It has been a 75 lapper. When he replies, I'll let you know. I'll also ask him to see if he can fix whichever info is wrong. He probably doesn't realize that one contradicts the other.

Re: Snowball Derby Purse all divisions

Good! That's what we thought (and hoped.) Those Hoosiers are good tires, but they won't last 75 laps and I doubt there's a Mod out there with a big enough fuel cell to go that distance with a big motor (which is what everyone says ya gotta run to have a chance of finishing "in the money.")

On another note, we're trying to get a copy of the modified rules that will be in force for the Snowball, but your tech guy isn't answering our email (from my son, Cory Lovell). Problem is the normal 5 Flags rules eliminate 80% of the cars that will be there .. we've talked to many previous Snowball Modified drivers from our area and their version of the rules and the only thing we can find at the website are vastly different. Is there a link we haven't found?

I'm not sure on that one. I put a call into Ricky brooks, and I'll post what i find out. i would assume that the rules throughout the year would be the ones used at the Derby, but I'm not the one to ask. I'll let you know. He's probably gotten a ton of emails lately too.
