POWER RANKINGS: Pavement Modifieds, Week 1, June 2026

📸 Wayne Goodman

Jonesville, MI - This week, the MARC News Pavement Modified Power Rankings Presented by Howe Racing Enterprises had a pair of races in Michigan, starting with the Michigan Modifieds at Owosso Speedway on Saturday night. David McManus found his way to Victory Lane. Then on Sunday, during the first Slugfest of the season at Corrigan Oil Speedway, John Gatton, Jr led wire-to-wire in a race that never saw a caution for his first win of the season.

How it works: Drivers who finish inside the top five that night will receive base points. 10 points for 1st, 6 points for 5th. This will be true for every race held that week/weekend in that division. Then, the "experts" will examine the results and see if anyone may have earned any bonus points based on their performance. If they did, the panel member can throw them two bonus points for the week.

Note: For events with less than a 10-car feature, five points are DEDUCTED for a strength-of-field correction.
