Atlantic Modified Tour
Busy Two Week Stretch to End Month of January in the Maritimes

Rules meetings, banquets and winter racing – oh my!
As is the case most years, January is the month where track and teams begin to wake up from a small down time between racing seasons and the holidays to begin pinning the throttle on their 2020 plans. This year, it seems like it has only been ramping up with three rules meetings and two winter racing events announced for Maritime oval and touring series.
Here’s a brief look at what is going on over the next two weeks around the region. Of course, some of these events are weather permitting and it is best to check with the sanctioning body hosting the event before you head to the venue.
