Anybody know what they used for gears on the mile?

Still makes me mad they tore this place down. I won’t ever support the businesses that moved into the area.

This was back when you could somewhat identify the model of the car. Today’s mods are just a bunch of sheet metal put together.

#12A jumping Jack Johnson the first NY to win at the Moody Mile simply one of the best to strap into a modified I grew up watching him win at the track of champions, a great and humble man too really miss him not being on the track...

Before This track got torn down i always thought that this was the dirt car version of the indy 500

[@jeremythompson9122]

It practically is. It's the DIRT equivalent to the Daytona 500 and Indianapolis 500

[@huggybear9937]

they will never be the same the pioneers of eastern dirt modifieds

[@Duke_Jupiter]

I was at both these races - great post thanks for the memories!!

[@PennCentral-jn2ow]

Big mistake when the Moody mile was torn down. Always huge crowds, best racing anywhere and where modifieds were modifieds; gremlins, corvettes, pintos, coupes, actual car bodies made them unique and distinguishable. Sorely missed

[@rustyangel3631]

Glenn Fitzcharles great racer, even wrecked his priority is to help his fellow racer . Salute
