Credit to Desoto for this idea.

Assuming no weekly monsoon I will probably be at another venue pitside assisting a non-mod Team, but I sincerely hope this works.

This could be a "special" show most anywhere.

Why? Because it's...special!

*What...?* Super Modifieds are *back* in Florida...?? How was *this* secret kept quiet...?!







If they're NOT these cars, then, PLEASE *don't* call 'em "supermodifieds"...

[OldSchool+]

I guess I will reluctantly agree--and hope true supermodifieds come to Desoto next speedweeks.

They also refer to them as "Bad Ass Modifieds"--it works for me.

[OldSchool+]

ps--Should we take a poll regarding how many sheets of Lexan Mr. Anderson has ordered up?

[Frasson118]

Using the title "Supermodified" is very misleading.
I wonder how many people will believe they are going to see the real thing, only to find out they are Florida Modifieds with lexan sideboards.
It's like going out to a Crab dinner, and then finding out you're getting a Krab dinner.

"Outlaw" Figure 8 cars running on the oval...







Or, a Charlie Swartz mid-engine machine?:



Or, how 'bout a four-wheel-drive, rear-engine SUPERMODIFIED?:

Any idea of car count for the Desoto BadAMod event coming up 4/09?

[openwm53]

I sure

hope they have a good turn out. A couple things that i wish they would have done differently to promote this into a bigger event. I dont know how long they have had this posted on spacebook but surely not long enuff on this site for a guy to really make some modifications. They scheduled on top of a track that will most likely get a good draw of cars. I applaud the outside of the box thinking with this type of race but they will learn not to schedule on top of yoho. I truly hope both tracks have full fields.

Geez....

I thought they spelled it out pretty clear in their ad.

Florida Super Modifieds (they even separated the words for us)
IMCA type modified (not IMSA...or MSA...or SMRA...or even NESMRA....)
10" tires (not +15")
57% left side (not 70%)
7 lbs per cubie (not 1850 lbs total)


I think most people might know that they aren't going to see some Oswego Supers travel all the way to Desoto just to go 50 laps for $2k to win.
(Perhaps those Ohio guys would.....but not the New Yorkers. lol)

I guess I just really want to believe that most people could figure that out....
............even if Jerry and Jimmy can't.




(Don't worry folks, they know I'm just funnin' with them.)

So, who knows how the BadA Modified deal turned out?

[shorttrackcar1]

Look like from what I found in results only three showed up.

[Frasson118]

TWO cars......

[BallewM]

Shouldn't have tried to schedule on top of Showtime. They had 14 modifieds show up.
