A race report by Tom Bowman

Trophies and money brought some of the fastest racers on the East Coast to rural Virginia on Saturday. The New Jersey crew of Rick Carter, Harvey Goodwin and Pete Barclay came down to run the Amateur Modified and Modified magnet car classes. Racing was very intense, and attrition occurred with cars smoking to melted pile on two occasions, gears being stripped and spinning on the shaft...and then there was the drivers...some couldn't hang through 12 hours of competition!
