Concord, NC — There have been a few guys that have become synonymous with the PASS South Super Late Model Series. Just a few names have made every single start since the inception on the series in 2006. One of those is
Thompson, CT — The exciting conclusion of the Sunoco Modified Mania race program will be this Sunday afternoon at the Thompson International Speedway. Race teams from both the True Value Modified Series and the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour will gather at the ultra-fast Thompson Speedway to compete in their events that were rained out on September 9th.
The six-division racing spectacle began under threatening skies on September 9th. Four of the six races were completed before the rains came and the remainder of the event had to be rescheduled. Weather concerns do not seem to be in the cards for this weekend as forecasters are predicting bright sun and temperatures in the mid to upper 70s.
One thing NHIS brings to our attention is family. More times than not we see entire families come to enjoy racing and compete as families. We even bring our families to minister and help us out during the four-day event each summer and fall. The question came to mind this weekend, how are we teaching our families, specifically our children, the right way to conduct themselves and handle themselves? Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
You do not have to look too far to see how the racing tradition has been handed down from generation to generation. Many times there is as many as three generations of family represented at the track. In a few cases that climbs to four! Grandfathers, grandmothers, fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, Think about that for a moment, four generations of a family enjoying the same sport at the same time in the same place. We are not only a racing family but we are families racing. It makes me feel good to walk down pit road and see grandmothers rooting their grandchildren on.
