HOOSIER SPRINT NATIONALS - TRI-STATE SPEEDWAY - AUG. 2nd
Haubstadt, IN - July 31, 2014. The Midwest Sprint Car Series will be
sanctioning the Hoosier Sprint Nationals on Saturday August 2nd.
This special event will be the 10th to be promoted at Tri-State
Speedway in Haubstadt, IN. The feature will pay $5,000 to the
winner. Twenty sprint cars and one possible provisional starter will
take the green flag and go for the added distance of 40 laps to
determine this year’s race champion.
Eight Hoosier Sprint National events have been held to date and eight
different drivers have posted a win. Rain intervened only once! The
race has continued to be a popular action attraction at Tri-State
Speedway season after season.
Kyle Cummins has claimed the lead in Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car
Series points.
He is the only driver that has started in every HSN feature held. The
Princeton, IN, driver continues to collect top five finishes in looking
for that first win this season. Robert Ballou has used a three race
winning streak to move up to third in the standings. Bradley Sterrett
stands second in points with Jeff Bland Jr. and Brandon Mattox rounding
out the top five heading into this weekend’s action.
No driver has won the Hoosier Sprint Nationals race and gone on to
become the Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car Series Points Champion
that same season. Maybe this will be the year!
The UMP Open Wheel Modifieds will also be competing on August 2nd.
The pit gate will open at 3:30 P.M. C.D.T. with the stands to open
an hour later. Hot laps begin at 6:30 with heat races beginning at
7:30. Additional information can be found at
