New Egypt Speedway Saturday, photographer...The show started right on time and had a good flow throughout the night.A good field ofb 33 modifieds were on hand as well as a full field of crate sportsman.The week prior we had pretty strong winds and very cold temperatures, this night got chilly but no wind thankfully, the modified feature was very entertaining with many three wide battles which made for some good images, Jim Housworth looked like he was headed for his first modified win but last weeks winner Brandon Grosso past him I believe on the last lap for the victory.

The other divisions provided very good racing in there features also, the track got some dust in the mod feature but wasnt as bad as the prior week and I only see it getting better.I walked the track after the nights races to examine the surface and I have to say I liked what I seen, very smooth, still had plenty of bite.I also checked tires to see how they were wearing and I was also happy to see so many RR tires with plenty of tread left, mod winner Grosso has had the same RR tire on for two weeks now and after looking at it in VL Saturday night he still has some races left on it.Tires are an issue now but in a couple months they very well may dictate who races and who doesnt, but thats a whole nother story...

All in all it was a good night of racing ...going back ?..Yes April 23rd when the MASS 305 Sprints are in town, next Saturday the 16th will find me at Monster Jam with the Grandson, peace everyone...Harry Meeks Staff Photographer Area Auto Racing News.
