November 11th 2007 race fans at I-76 Speedway in Fort Morgan Colorado
were treated to possibly the best dirt modified race of the year in this
region. I have been fortunate to see 51 events this year in 9 states and
will say the drive put on by Eddie Belec Jr and Ricky Alvarado at the
November “Winter Series” was only bested by Kelly Boen’s drive from the
back to the front at I-80 during the alphabet soup NCRA, CLMA, MARS,
MLRA event. From the drop of the green flag rookie modified driver Brett
Smith looked like he might be the car to beat, Brett had the old Jimmy
Clifton car on rails but after a slip up a few cars including Belec,
Alvarado, Schumacher, and Ursetta were able to get by and settle the
score between them selves. As the halfway point approached it was clear
this was a two horse race and Eddie and Ricky thrilled the crowd with
lap after lap passes, slide jobs and flat out brute power coming off the
corners…lead changes happened in each corner and were talking all 4
corners baby! When is was all said and done the #3b of Eddie Belec Jr.
won the race and his first ever feature win. If you would like to put
some visual to this story go to
