Parts and Staff The LAMOT Late Model division began as an idea in the fall of 2007 as a way to make weekly racing more affordable and competitive. It was created by a group of current and former drivers, team owners, and tech inspectors with a combined 145 plus years of experience in racing. Over the winter of 2007 a set of rules was put together with the goal of making the division more affordable for teams looking to move up to a Late Model and less expensive to run weekly. LAMOT instituted four measures; the use of a longer lasting tire, the low cost 602 crate motor, pump instead of race fuel, and less expensive shocks. In the Spring of 2008 LAMOT became incorporated as a non-profit entity and began their first season. Nascar sanctioned Holland Speedway agreed to LAMOT running weekly in 2008 with a purse of $200 per car and $125 for last place. In 2012 LAMOT returns to Holland to compete in the track's 53rd year. *
