MERCER ADDS NEW UEMS E-MODS TO MARCH 29 “CHILLER THRILLER”
After much discussion, Mercer Raceway Park has announced it’s fourth and final division for it’s season opener on Saturday, March 29. The E-Mods will again be part of the “Chiller Thriller,” but with a new twist as the event will be sanctioned by the new United E-Mod Series (UEMS). The E-Mods will join the Steel-Block Late Models, Stock Cars, and Mini Stocks.
A great payoff has been established as the winner will now receive $750 rather than the $500 that was posted for the prior two “Chiller Thriller” events. $500 will now go to second with $65 to take the green. For a complete payoff and more info on the United E-Mod Series, check out their website at www.unitedlatemodelseries.com.
“Our main concern with having the E-Mods was car count,” explained 10th year owner Vicki Emig. “When UEMS announced they were starting an E-Mod Series we felt this was a way to insure a good field of cars and keep the E-Mods a part of the Chiller Thriller. We’ve enjoyed working with Chris Zuver of ULMS in the past with the Late Models and he feels he’s going to have a strong following and we can get a good turnout of the northern cars.”
The event will carry a rain date of Saturday, April 5. For more information, check out Mercer’s web site at www.mercerracewaypark.com
