For years, I have heard and believed that you have to have lots of passing to have a great race.

Last night that was proved to be incorrect as I watched i very exciting race without a pass for the lead.

I was at Lorain County Speedway for the ISMA Supermodifieds.  "Liquid" Lou Cicconi took off on a run that was incredible.

He had everything under control and was setting a blistering pace.  Only one problem, Mike Ordway, Jr was right on his tail.

This battle lasted 80 laps with Ordway tryinb everything he could to wear Cicconi down.  All 4 of Cicconi's rotors were glowing red as he held Ordway off.

As this battle was going on, teammates Rob Summers and Mike Lichty were within striking distance of the lead pair.

About lap 80 disaster struck, something broke on Cicconi's car and he drifted to a stop on the infield.  On the restart Qrdway was flying.

With about 10 to go, Summers was within striking distance.  He got one last chance on the final lad in turn4 but it wasn't to be and Ordway picked up the win.

One of the best races I have seen in a long time.  Four cars with a legitimate chance of winning battling under a blanket for most of 100 laps.

Gotta love those Supermodifieds.

This past Saturday I was in Delaware for my Grandson's high school graduation.  While there I decided to visit one of my favorite tracks, Delaware International Speedway.

They ran 7 divisions (2 were features only), started at 7:30, did ontrack interviews, and I was walking out of the track at 11:00. 

The surface was as smooth as glass and while sitting in the pit grandstand outside of turn 4 I didn't get any dust until the 4th or 5th feature.
