Riverhead Raceway Modifieds
If you like nascar, im sure you will like modifieds. Since Nascar is so mainstream, the whelan tour doesnt get as much attention. I am a proud crew member of a decent size team of 9 racecars which consist of 4 modifieds. This past 2 weeks we have been working nonstop everynight to get these cars ready with my team of 2 others for practice today. Heres some pictures of what i have been up to.
Here is the newest car, stripped down to a frame to go over everything.

These 2 cars are owned by a good friend of mine, also named Kyle. He is 17 years old and the kid works his butt off to afford his toys.

This is our pits today, installed 4 new engines in 2 weeks. So far these cars have got to be the fastest cars on the racetrack. Our times are .2 seconds faster than last years fastest with brand new tires. The tires we used today were from last year and have over 100 laps on them.
