Saturday the O’Reilly NCRA Modified Series, presented by ICM/Ethanol, will again try to kick off its 10th season. Originally scheduled for April 7 at 81 Speedway here in Park City, officials postponed the opener until May 5 because of the weather.
Four-time defending series champion Brian Franz will be at the race but doesn’t plan to run for another championship. He has won six of the last 10 NCRA shows held at 81, two of them last season.
Plenty of quality local drivers will be on hand Saturday. Eight of the top 10, and 14 of the top 20, in 2006 NCRA points live within 30 minutes of the track; another lives about an hour away.
