Welcome to the

Outlaw Modifieds Website. 

We thank you for your interest in our series and suggest you bookmark us.  The Outlaws are the oldest continuously running traveling series in the state of Florida.  Originally conceived in the early 1970’s as the first Modified Mini stocks at Hialeah Speedway it progressed to a modified body style and were called the Pro-4s of Florida.  A change in management from Craig Sherar to Paul Petri of Ocala Racetrack fame saw the roofs come off and the name changed to the Outlaw Modifieds.  Richard Huston picked up the reins in 1996 and car count began to climb.  In 2000 Steve Brigham took over the series and incorporated it as the Outlaw Modified Racing Series.  Car count continued to climb and the Outlaws are now a major touring series with 20 races scheduled at 4 different tracks for 2006. 

  The OLM’s mission statement is simple “provide a family environment for the fastest four cylinders in Florida, and do it inexpensively.”  To this end races are scheduled on the first and third Saturday of the month.  If a race is missed due to a rain out it is not rescheduled as that would not be fair to a team that may not be able to make it up.  This keeps every team on an equal footing for points.  Consideration for Family Life is very important as most of the teams are made up of close knit Family units such as Team of Harry Campbell which fields 3 cars and has more clansmen at the track than at the last Highlands Clan reunion. 

The cars themselves are also unique as they are built on tube chassis with coil over shocks.  Rolling on 10 wide tires and a 76” track, these cars are fast and nimble.  Power plants run from Fords to Toyotas and even an odd Nissan, however the Ford 2300’s is the favored motor.  Motor rules have stayed very stable over the last 10 years with the only rule change coming this year which allowed the Esslinger aluminum d-port head.  This was done only to provide an alternative to hard to find iron heads.  This head can only be run on a low compression motor, another way the Outlaws promote reliability as low compression motors enjoy a major weight break.  Speeds of an Outlaw rival those of a limited late model on a quarter to 3/8 mile track.

Robbie Bean back on top at Charlotte

The Outlaws show it is all about the competition with five different winners in the first five races of the year.  Matt Delaney led the twelve Outlaw Modifieds to the green but would give up the lead to Ric Mills.  Robbie Bean from the 6th starting position would find his way to the point where he would stay.  Ric Mills with his best run of the season would maintain the second spot for some time before points leader Robert Campbell moved into the second position.  Ric Mills finished third followed by Tom Meyer in fourth and  Zack Rudd with his first top five of the year.  The remaining field finished Ric Voisey 6th, Marty Neikins 7th, Raymond Jones 8th, Doug Hopper 9th,  Matt Delaney 10th, Cliff Steinmann 11th, John Parrish 12th.  Heat winners were Ric Voisey and Cliff Steinmann.

Parrish tops Outlaws at Orlando

by Dave Westerman

The visiting Outlaw Modifieds were a little down on car count but certainly not lacking action as they provided the best feature race of the night.

Heat race winners John Parrish and Robbie Bean thrilled the fans as they raced nearly the entire feature side by side swapping the lead back and fourth before Parrish finally surged ahead in the closing laps although Bean finished right on his tail at the checker.
While all that was going on, Cliff Steinmann was racing his way from eighth on the starting grid to third at the finish with Robert Campell fourth and Marty Niekens fifth. The remaining spots were filled by Tom Meyer, Ric Voisey, Matt Delaney, Ric Mills, Doug Hopper and Colin Cabre.

Robert Campbell takes First Win in 2008 

After the rains cleared fifteen racers got a single practice on a night that found the drives covering and uncovering there cars to avoid the rain.  The drivers lined up for their feature with Ric Mills on the pole and Zack Rudd on the outside.  Ric Mills lead the group for the first two laps.  Steinmann moved to the top spot on lap 3 followed by Robert Campbell.  Mills, Rudd, and Tom Meyer held the 3rd thru 5th positions nose to tail until lap 9 when Marty Neikens passed Meyer on the inside lane of turn 2.  Robbie Bean drove the #28 from the rear and took over the fifth spot on lap 12 following Mills and Neikens.   Fourteen year old Rookie Driver Colin Cabre started scratch and patiently drove his #71 to the ninth spot by lap 12 following 2007 Champion Doug Hopper.  Hopper with mechanical issues in practice gave up his starting spot to start near the rear.  On lap 14 Neikens was able to pass Ric Mills and move into the third position with Robbie Bean on his bumper they would keep Mills on the outside lane.  The earlier rains left no rubber on the second groove and push Mills to drop back in line 8th.  Exiting turn 4 on lap 14 Robbie Bean maneuvered past Neikens for third with Meyer, Hopper and Cabre racing behind them.  Steinmann and Campbell drove away from the pack and started to work lapped traffic on lap 17.  Ric Voisey brought out the only caution with a spin in turn four on lap 19, and would restart at the rear of the field.  Robert Campbell raced his way past the #23 of Steinmann on lap 22 where he would stay to be the first to the checkers on lap 35.  Steinmann finished second followed by Robbie Bean 3rd, Marty Neikens 4th, Doug Hopper 5th,  Rookie Colin Cabre starting his first points race with the Outlaws finished 6th, Tom Giddings 7th, Tom Meyer 8th, Zack Rudd 9th, Ric Mills 10th, Ric Voisey 11th.  Matt Delaney driving a new car finished 12th, John Parrish driving a car borrowed from Ric Mills because of a cam failure in his car was 13th, Mike Donohue 14th.  Raymond Jones did not start the feature.

Hopper and Steinmann take wins at Speedweeks 

By: Dave Westerman

Friday February 8th

The Outlaw Modifieds saw Cliff Steinmann come back from engine problems on Thursday to lead every lap of their 25 lap feature. Thursday winner Doug Hopper gave chase but had to settle for second with heat winner Billy Campbell taking the checker in third. Fourth and fifth went to Marty Niekens and Ric Voisey with Tom Giddings, Frank Hurst, Ric Mills, Colin Cabre and Matt Delaney rounding out the top ten.

 

Saturday February 9th

Twin heat races for the Outlaw Modifieds were won by Ric Voisey and Marty Niekens but both would start deep in the feature line-up. Doug Hopper led the opening lap but was quickly passed by Billy Campbell. Campbell led just a lap before Cliff Steinmann took over.
The first caution was thrown on lap 21 for a Jeff Parrish spin in turn four followed by a second caution a lap later as Robert Campbell looped his mount in turn four.  Steinmann had no problem cruising to the win from that point as he took the checker well in front of Billy Campbell and Parrish, who made a great drive forward after his spin. Fourth and fifth went to Robert Campbell and Ric Voisey with sixth going to Marty Niekens ahead of Doug Hopper who battled a sick engine throughout the day after winning the Thursday night feature.  Frank Hurst, Matt Delaney, Tom Giddings and Ric Mills rounded out the finishers.
