Sanctioned and officiated by the United States Modified Touring Series, the
World Modified Dirt Track Championship presented by Hanson Tire Service will
be a USMTS blockbuster that features a one-of-a-kind qualifying format.
Drivers register to qualify on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, but may also
purchase a “mulligan” that allows them to qualify a second day if they
aren’t satisfied with their result on the first day.
Group time trials will be staged each of the three days along with heat
races and main events with drivers earning points for their performances.
The highest overall points earner during the three days of qualifying will
earn the pole for the Saturday's “A” Main, second most points in the middle
of the front row, third most points on the outside of the front row and so
on for the 18 top qualified drivers.
Saturday’s program will feature an “alphabet soup” of main events that will
culminate with a 30-car starting field for the championship race that will
feature a three-wide start. Nearly $100,000 has been earmarked for
Saturday’s “A” Main alone, with a total purse of more than $160,000 posted
for the four-day extravaganza.
To date, a record 151 different drivers from 23 different states are entered
for this historic event. In addition to a whopping $20,000 going to the
winner on Saturday, each of the 30 main event qualifiers will pocket a
minimum of $1,500.
The Deer Creek Speedway sits on 60 acres of scenic rural rolling hills with
one of America’s most popular state-of-the-art racing complexes and a busy
modern campground. The 3/8-mile high-banked clay oval is located just 11
miles south of I-90 at exit 209 on Hwy. 63.
