Midweek race report from Tony Modica & John Chance<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Inverness, FL – This weekend’s 50 lap Sportsman race at Citrus County Speedway\u00a0will have a new twist and will be a\u00a0cone race! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For those of you familiar with the Madhouse TV show from last year you\u2019ll know exactly what this is all about.Every restart has the opportunity to be a double file restart, it\u2019s up to the drivers. \"\"One lap before each restart the track will put a cone in the center of the track at the flag stand, when each driver reaches that cone, they must pick the inside or outside lane. If the first three spots all pick the bottom, then the 4th place car could choose the outside of the cone and start outside the front row for the restart. If the top eight pick the bottom, 9th could pick the outside! The leader could even pick the top if he thought it was the faster way around! Once the driver picks the top or bottom, he must stay in that lane for the restart. You could have fifthteen cars lined up on the inside and only five on the outside! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
