B Mod Rule Change
(8/5/08):
The Racing committee voted
to change the B Modified brake rule as follows:
Previous Wording: Rear
rotors .810 minimum thickness.
New wording: Rear rotors
may be aftermarket .81 inch thickness (New), normal wear allowed.
In accordance with this
rule change, the racing committee also voted to overturn the Troy Gochanour
disqualification on 8/2 for this infraction. The committee felt the wording
of this rule to be incorrect as this rule allowed for no wear of the brake
rotor.
Track points
have been posted
showing Troy as the 8/2/2008 winner. Troy will also be awarded 1st
place money and a trophy.
Updates on Jesse McCorkell (Jon McCorkell's
brother)
Several people have asked me about my brothers website (he was seriously
injured in an accident memorial day weekend) and that is
http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/jessemccorkell. This is a nice
site and my aunt and cousin update it on his condition, just about daily.
Jackson Speedway
takes to the highways with Touring Series and ASA Member Track
Affiliation
Jon McCorkell, promoter of
Jackson Speedway, has his eye on the future, and it is looking at
both the new Jackson Speedway Touring Series and an ASA Member Track
affiliation as two ways for his racetrack to stand out and bring in
new race fans.
