In 2009 at the Brewerton Speedway where every week the field of cars resembled a Big Block Modified Super DIRTcar Series Race, the Phoenix, NY high school student was always in the mix against some of the best racers in the business. In the final points run down Wight came in 12th only 41 points out of the top-ten.
At Fulton Speedway on Saturday nights Wight brought home a 7th place points finish where seven weekly drivers were tour regulars.
When there wasn’t a Modified series race Larry and the Gypsum Express Team would call Cayuga County Fair Speedway home on Sunday nights. Once again like Brewerton and Fulton Speedways Larry competed against stout competition finishing 12th when the season ended.
On one of the toughest touring series in the country Wight hit the road on the Modified Super DIRTcar Series in 2009. Running time-trials at each event and seeing some of the tracks for the very first time Larry was always in the mix against tour and track regulars. When the final checkers flew on the series saw a 12th place finish only 36 points out of a top-ten in the final rundown.
