    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.


    Here is the #36, this cars winnings are given partially to a program called "Drive for a cure" that donates money for breast cancer research




    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 the engine he just bought to put in his tour car. $20,000. right there. Yes, count it.....there are 4 zeros there.


    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.



    I hope everyone enjoys these pictures, i plan on getting more and possibly some videos and keeping some people updated if they want.

    For the thousands of times I've driven by Riverhead Raceway, never been in the place.

    Races are usually somewhere around 20-30 per person cash depending on what features there are. they even open up the pits after the last race if you wanna check out the cars. These are asphault moss, id kill myself if they were dirt mods lol, the cleanup on those are horrendous every week lol. I think a, meet would be pretty cool actually. I've seen some delorean clubs come, gotta represent the g game!
