Hy-Miler Nationals

This past weekend was the Hi-Miler Nationals at Sandusky Speedway,in Sandusky Ohio.This is a 3 day event starting on Thursday night which was dollar night ,a dollar to get in for the races a dollar for hot dogs and drinks.Racing that night were streetstocks,pony cars and champ karts on the asphalt half mile.People look forward to this race all year long as this is BIG ONE for the year,people come from as far as New York camping out for the weekend, cooking out and drinking plenty of ice cold beer. In fact the heat index was near 100 degrees for the 3 day event but the stands were packed all 3 days.Friday the 305 sprint cars were on the track for some awesome racing,but the rain came right before the features were run.They ended up running the features the next morning.Saturday night was the BIG SHOW that everyone came for THE SUPER MODIFIEDS ,these are 900 horsepower 1600 pound cars.They're like indy cars on steroids,24 cars started the 100 lap feature and let me tell ya when they take the green flag IT 'S ON! These cars are the fastest race cars on earth, if you never seen this cars you owe it to your self to see them in action. The engines are big blocks maximum 460 cubic inches, fuel injected running on methanol.There is nothing like em ,after 100 laps they were 10 left racing,with the winner number 78 from Canada winning the show. This was my second time going and my wifes first time and we both agreed this is going to be a family tradition.
