Modified World Series Finale Rained Out, Hirschman Crowned

The same rain that ultimately shortened the Truck Series opener at Daytona International Speedway also cost the World Series of Asphalt its Tour Type Modified finale — the Richie Evans 100.

It also effectively denied Matt Hirschman a chance to sweep all five races this week even the results clinched his fourth World Series championship. ‘Big Money’ also won the championship in 2018, 2020 and 2021.

The rain-out also cost the racing community a chance to see a conclusion to the week long battle between Hirschman and Patrick Emerling, who finished first and second in all four races, and also got into a war of words over their respective race craft from Wednesday and Thursday.

1. Matt Hirschman
2. Patrick Emerling -8
3. Eric Goodale -34
4. Tyler Rypkema -58
5. Jimmy Blewett -76
6. Joey Coulter -78
7. Ronnie Williams -80
8. Anthony Nocella -80
9. Anthony Bello -82
10. Brian Robie -86
