2013 was the first year NEO Racing News existed, so it was more about laying groundwork than anything else. Thanks to the tracks and drivers around Northeast Ohio, I was able to do that. Looking back into the vault, here are the top videos on the NEO Racing News YouTube Channel in 2013!

Top Videos of 2014: #9 Tim Westerfield Jr. Modified Feature Crashes
To kick off the 2015 season here at NEO Racing News, I am going to start by looking back at the Top 10 videos of 2014, based on views. As always, remember to check out the more than 300 videos uploaded to the NEO Racing News YouTube Channel by clicking the link!
#9 – Tim Westerfield Jr. Modified Feature
Opening Day at Midvale Speedway was a chance for a fresh start for every team that rolled in that day. But unfortunately for many of the modified division teams, it would also be their first chance to fix some sheet metal. Spins and hard racing led to contact and carnage, including two examples from Tim Westerfield Jr.’s Ride Along camera. All drivers were OK in both incidents.

Rain Cancels 250 Opener, Attica
Constant rain and a forecast that called for an increasing chance of further rain ended the night early for a pair of Northeast Ohio dirt tracks.
Rt. 250 Speedway near Cadiz was scheduled to host its season opener tonight, which was originally scheduled for April 18th. Now the track will wait until May 2nd to fire up engines and race.
Attica Raceway Park waited a bit longer to call racing, but the result was the same. Attica opened on April 11th, and was set to host weekly racing action with FAST 410 Sprints, 305 Sprints, and UMP Late Models. The track will try again on May 2nd, with racing scheduled to include the first race of the Attica/Wayne County Late Model Challenge.
