MSCS HEADS TO DAUGHTERY SPEEDWAY TO RACE JUNE 25th
Haubstadt, IN - June 16, 2016 - The Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car
Series will be racing at the Daugherty Speedway on Saturday night
June 25th. This event will mark the return of the MSCS series to the
3/8s mile track for the first time in ten seasons. In that span of
time there have been many changes within the series as well as at the
facility.
The race represents an excellent opportunity for drivers in northern
and central Indiana to run with the series. New faces in different
or additional cars always makes for an interesting race. Support for
the series currently averages 25 sprint cars per event. Strong
competitors are following the series and are joined by equally strong
teams that participate as opportunity allows. Drivers can purchase a
temporary permit from MSCS to run a particular event or obtain an
annual license.
Some of the most successful drivers with MSCS so far include recent
“Summer Showdown” winner Kyle Cummins, two time feature winner Chase
Stockon, and LPS winner Thomas Meseraull. The series has completed
just 4 races so far of the eight on the original schedule. The race
at Daugherty marks the end of a wet first half of a season. Frequent
members of the top five after the features include Carson Short, C.J.
Leary, and Brady Short. Brady Short has taken the lead in the season
points for MSCS. He is compiling steady performances to work towards
a third MSCS season title.
A number of drivers have made progress in finding openings in the top
five so far in 2016. Donny Brackett and Kevin Thomas Jr. have
garnered runner-up feature finishes. Six other drivers have earned
a top five finish just outside of a trip to the podium. They are
Dakota Jackson, Jeff Bland Jr., Josh Hodges, Chad Boespflug, Ted
Hines, and Brent Beauchamp.
The Daugherty Speedway may present one of the most neutral
battlegrounds of the season for the MSCS sprint car drivers. MSCS
last raced at the track when it was known as Kamp Motor Speedway.
Those events were held during 2003, 2004, and 2005. The series was
gaining momentum then and is now in its 16th season. Series records
list the winners during those years as Bobby Smith, A.J. Anderson,
Danny Williams Jr., Kenny Carmichael Sr., and Kyle Wissmiller. Odds
are that fans will be watching for a new face to appear in victory
lane. The winner’s prize will be $2,000!
The current top twelve in points for MSCS are Brady Short, Brandon
Morin, Kyle Cummins, Nevil Algie, Dakota Jackson, Carson Short, Tyler
Hewitt, Jared Chastain, Donny Brackett, Jim Shelton, Jadon Rogers,
and C.J. Leary.
Racing will begin at 6:30 Eastern Time. Hot laps and group
qualifying will be held an hour earlier. Four other classes will be
racing on the card. There should be plenty of action and excitement
for race fans to experience at a dirt track.
