Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (September 8, 2009) – The American Sprint Car Series Midwest Region brings the curtain down on the 2009 season on a high note with a pair of events in Nebraska this weekend, with a potential weekend sweep worth $7,001.

On Friday night, the ASCS Midwest forces invade Rising City's Butler County Motorplex for the $2,001-to-win Tribute to 9/11 "Race to Remember". Then, on Saturday night, the ASCS Midwest season championship finale takes place at Eagle Raceway's $5,000-to-win Nebraska Cup.

The lone ASCS Midwest stop of the year at both tracks, it marks the series return to the Butler County Motorplex for the first time since 2007 after a pair of tries last year were washed out. Springfield, Nebraska's Jack Dover topped last year's edition of Eagle Raceway's Nebraska Cup to put the wraps on the 2008 series title.

While a stellar field of competitors is expected for this weekend's pair of events in Cornhusker territory, Lincoln, Nebraska's Jason Danley will try to put the finishing touches on a second ASCS Regional championship for the 2009 season.

Danley finished off the ASCS Northern Plains slate at the end of July with a 33-point cushion over Sioux Falls racer Eric Lutz and carries a 100-point advantage over Giltner, Nebraska's Chad Humston into the Midwest season-ender.

Danley can safely put away the Midwest title by simply making the feature cut on both nights. However, any stumble against the stout field could open the door for Humston, who celebrates his 23rd birthday this week.

While Danley has built his advantage on the strength of seven top-ten feature runs in eleven events, Humston is one of just two drivers to post two Midwest feature wins this season along with Missouri's Brian Brown.

Humston picked off series wins at Nebraska Raceway Park's I-80 Speedway (May 21) and South Dakota's I-90 Speedway (June 26), while Brown added a win in the series most recent event at Sedalia's State Fair Speedway (August 23) to an earlier score at I-80 (July 2).

While Danley and Humston settle the top spot this weekend, Lutz enters the weekend ranked third in Midwest points with Lucas Oil Sprint Car Rookie of the Year contender Jack Dover in fourth. Two-time ASCS Northern Plains champion Lee Grosz of Harwood, ND, rounds out the current top five in ASCS Midwest points.

Friday's racing action at Butler County Motorplex goes green at 8:00 p.m., while Saturday's Nebraska Cup at Eagle Raceway fires off at 7:00 p.m.

The high-banked, 3/8-mile Butler County Motorplex clay oval is located near Rising City, NE, eight miles south of U.S. 30 on U.S. 81, then two miles east on CR 38, then 0.7 mile south on CR C, then east. For more information, contact the track at 308-940-1970.

The high-banked, 1/3-mile Eagle Raceway clay oval is located in Eagle, NE, off I-80 Exit 420, then eleven miles south on SR 63, then west. For more information, contact the track at 402-781-2243.

This weekend's Nebraska double completes a slate of 15 nights of competition for the ASCS Midwest Region at eight tracks throughout Nebraska and the surrounding areas of Missouri and South Dakota.

Thus far, 125 drivers have competed in at least one ASCS Midwest event in 2009 with nine different drivers reaching victory lane in eleven completed events. While Humston and Brown have each posted two triumphs, single wins have been recorded by Lutz, Jonathan Cornell, Billy Alley, Jesse Hockett, Shane Stewart, Bronson Maeschen and Gary Wright. Two events were rained out.

Past ASCS Midwest Winners at Butler County Motorplex:
6/15/07 – Mike Boston
7/28/06 – Garry Lee Maier

Past ASCS Midwest Winners at Eagle Raceway:
9/7/09 – Jack Dover
7/21/08 – Mike Boston

Lonnie Wheatley, DENISON, Iowa (July 31, 2009) – Bronson Maeschen snared his first career American Sprint Car Series feature win by topping Friday night's 25-lap Midwest vs. Northern Plains Regional Challenge feature atop the 5/8-mile Crawford County Speedway.

After sliding up to the first starting position after scheduled pole starter Kaley Gharst coasted to a stop with race-ending woes on the pace lap, Maeschen gunned into the lead at the outset and led all the way to claim the victory.

Maeschen was chased to the line by Jack Dover, who took advantage of a late caution that set up a green-white-checkered run to take runner-up honors away from Rager Phillips. Phillips settled for show honors with Chad Meyer in fourth.

Jason Danley, also atop the ASCS Midwest point charts, put the clamps on the ASCS Northern Plains title by rounding out the top five, with 13th-starter Brad Foster, Ryan Anderson, Chad Humston, Dave Glennon and Casey Friedrichsen completing the top ten.

From I-80 Speedway:

When the remainder of the MLRA/NCRA Race to Freedom Tour originally
scheduled for the July 4th weekend was canceled due to rain, they
rescheduled the races in Park Jefferson and Corning for Friday July 24th and
Saturday July 25th. The point fund for the Freedom Tour is still in effect
along with the 5 bonus drawings for attending Park Jefferson.

Since the series will be so close to I-80 Speedway we will be hosting the
MLRA/NCRA series at I-80 Speedway on Sunday July 26th. Along with them will
be the NASCAR Late Models and the Pro-ams, both of these classes have double
features that night without heats so the schedule will follow as listed
below (with maybe a couple of tweaks):

NASCAR Late Model last chance qualifier(s)
MLRA/NCRA Heat Races
Pro Am A Feature #1
NASCAR Late Model A Feature #1
MLRA/NCRA B features
Pro-Am A Feature #2
NASCAR Late Model last chance qualifier(s) for second feature
MLRA/NCRA A Feature
NASCAR Late Model A Feature #2

We like to pack the action and we like to do it fast so we are guaranteeing
the fans that the MLRA/NCRA feature will roll out onto the track by 9 p.m.
or everyone in attendance in the grandstands will get a pass to get into the
races the following week for free! (unless an unforeseen circumstance arises
beyond our control, i.e. mother nature, or leave of ambulance, etc)

There will also be a chance for one lucky fan to win $1,000 at the July 26th
NCRA/MLRA special, this time you must pick the top 3 finishers in order for
the MLRA/NCRA feature.

We hear from numerous drivers and series how good our track has been. They

BY CURT McKEEVER / Lincoln Journal Star
Friday, Jul 10, 2009 - 08:38:32 am CDT
There have been some impressive streaks over the years at Eagle Raceway, but
the one IMCA modified driver Dylan Smith is on might stand up to any.

Smith has won the last four A features at the one-third mile track, which
thanks to the foresight of owner Roger Hadan can boast one of the toughest
lineups in the country.

It was Hadan who approached members of the Gage County fair board with the
thought that Eagle and Beatrice Speedway could enjoy significant growth if
the two tracks would stop competing against each other on Saturday nights.

Was he ever right about that.

Rest of the article (and a nice rundown of recent/future events) is here:

Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (June 29, 2009) - There will be plenty of fireworks in Nebraska this weekend as the American Sprint Car Series Midwest Region scatters the clay for two nights Thursday and Friday.

On Thursday night, the series takes to Nebraska Raceway Park's I-80 Speedway before moving on to McCool Junction's Junction Motor Speedway on Friday night.

After becoming the series first repeat winner of 2009 by topping Friday night's event at South Dakota's I-90 Speedway, Chad Humston of Giltner, NE, has moved atop the ASCS Midwest Region championship point charts.

Humston holds a 23-point lead over two-time ASCS Northern Plains champion Lee Grosz of Harwood, ND, with Lincoln, Nebraska's Jason Danley just one more point back in third.

Crete, Nebraska's Mike Boston enters the weekend double ranked fourth, with Missouri's Brian Brown in fifth. Brown, atop the all-time ASCS Midwest Region win charts with ten triumphs, is still looking for his first ASCS Midwest win of 2009.

Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (June 23, 2008) - After Mother Nature
intervened in last month's scheduled season opener, the American Sprint Car
Series Midwest Region will make another attempt at Junction Motor Speedway
in McCool Junction, NE, this Friday night.

While North Dakota's Natalie Sather defends her ASCS Midwest Region
championship, Missouri's Brian Brown tries to extend his mastery of Junction
Motor Speedway in the month of June. Brown has topped the ASCS Midwest
Region's June event atop the 3/8-mile McCool Junction dirt oval over each of
the past two years.

Brown, the winningest driver in ASCS Midwest Region history, is out to the
early series points lead after finishing second to Jason Johnson on Saturday
night at Knoxville Raceway.

Sather kicked off her title defense by racing from 21st to thirteenth in
Saturday's Knoxville opener.

Friday's action at Junction Motor Speedway is set to go green at 7:00 p.m.

Junction Motor Speedway is located in McCool Junction, NE, off I-80 Exit
353, then 5.6 miles south on US 81, then 0.3 miles west on CR 4, then north.
For more information, contact the track at 402-724-3100 or 402-773-5538.

The ASCS Midwest Region is currently slated for nine nights of action at
eight different tracks throughout Nebraska and the immediate surrounding
area stretching into Kansas, Missouri and Iowa.

The nation's most prominent Sprint Car sanctioning body with a dozen
different Regions throughout the United States in addition to the O'Reilly
American Sprint Cars on Tour National series, the American Sprint Car
Series' (ASCS) 17th year of activity will include approximately 250 nights
of racing at more than 100 different race tracks throughout 28 different
states and Canada.

Past ASCS Midwest Region Winners at Junction Motor Speedway:
6/29/07 - Brian Brown
5/25/07 - Garry Lee Maier
6/30/06 - Brian Brown
5/26/06 - Jake Peters
5/27/05 - Jason Danley

Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (June 16, 2008) – The O'Reilly American Sprint
Cars on Tour National series kicks off its three-race Northern Swing with
this Friday night's event atop Iowa's ½-mile Knoxville Raceway dirt oval.

Friday's card atop the famed Knoxville Raceway marks the series first event
at the Marion County Fairgrounds aside from the track's annual 360
Nationals, which has been sanctioned by the American Sprint Car Series since
1996.

Friday's event opens the three-race Northern Swing for the O'Reilly ASCoT
National series, with ensuing events at Hartford, South Dakota's I-90
Speedway on Tuesday, June 24, and then Huron, South Dakota's Dakota State
Fair Speedway on Saturday, June 28.

Gary Wright, winner of the Knoxville 360 Nationals ten years ago in 1998,
enters Friday's card at Knoxville Raceway with a 38-point lead as he pursues
an unprecedented fifth consecutive ASCS National championship, which will
once again be worth $50,000.

Louisiana's Jason Johnson enters Friday's card as the only driver to capture
more than one ASCoT National feature win this season, as the "Ragin' Cajun"
climbed to second in points on the strength of his fourth series win of the
year on May 10.

While shut out of victory lane in ASCoT action thus far in 2008, Oklahoma
City native Wayne Johnson may enter Friday's event with the upper hand after
racing to victory lane at Knoxville Raceway over each of the past two
Saturday nights. Now calling Knoxville home, Johnson enters Friday's event
just a dozen points behind Jason Johnson and 50 markers off of "The Texan's"
lead pace.

Wright and the unrelated Johnson duo lead a loaded contingent of 14
full-time ASCoT National teams that are set for all three Northern Swing
events including past ASCS National champions Zach Chappell (Talala, OK),
Travis Rilat (Forney, TX) and Garry Lee Maier (Cimarron, KS).

Nick Smith (Broken Arrow, OK), the series' 2006 Rookie of the Year, has
climbed to seventh in points with one victory to his credit, with
20-year-old Eric Baldaccini (Keller, TX) this year's leading Rookie of the
Year contender over a crop that includes Kenneth Walker (Sapulpa, OK),
17-year-old Kathryne Minter (Bedford, TX) and Chris Tarrant (Greenville,
TX).

Jack Dover, the 18-year-old from Springfield, NE, that captured his first
ASCoT National win in Oklahoma City just over a month ago to crack the top
ten in points, is set for all three Northern Swing events along with
20-year-old Donnie Ray Crawford (Broken Arrow, OK) and the Broken Arrow, OK,
combination of Aaron Berryhill and Sean McClelland aboard the No. 97 entry.

Fargo, North Dakota's Natalie Sather, who has posted several recent strong
runs at Knoxville, kicks off her ASCS Midwest Region title defense with
Friday's card.

Ankeny, Iowa's Matt Moro leads the regular Knoxville contingent into the
event by holding a slim lead in track points over South Dakota's Gregg
Bakker, with other top track shoes including Brett Mather, Josh Higday and
Joe Beaver.

Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (June 5, 2008) – The next spate of activity for the O'Reilly American Sprint Cars on Tour National series is little more than two weeks away, as the nation's premier traveling Sprint Car series makes its annual journey through the Midwest and northern plains.

A full contingent of 13 full-time ASCoT competitors will take on all variety of Regional and local hotshoes when the series takes to three tracks throughout Iowa and South Dakota from June 20 to June 28.

It all starts on Friday night, June 20, when the series invades the hallowed grounds of Iowa's Knoxville Raceway at the Marion County Fairgrounds, marking the series first time on the half-mile oval outside of the track's annual 360 Nationals. The ASCoT National series will be joined by the ASCS Midwest Region as well as a full complement of Knoxville Raceway regulars for the Friday night card.

Then four nights later, on Tuesday, June 24, it's on to Hartford, South Dakota's I-90 Speedway for the second year in a row, with the Northern Swing concluding on Saturday night, June 28, at Dakota State Fair Speedway in Huron, SD. The ASCoT National forces will be bolstered by the ASCS Northern Plains Regional shoes at both South Dakota events. Jason Johnson topped both the Hartford and Huron events last year.

The 2008 season has been a wildly unpredictable one thus far for the O'Reilly American Sprint Cars on Tour, with ten different drivers already reaching victory lane through the opening 13 feature events of the season, including five drivers that have posted a first career series win.

One thing that's not a surprise though is that four-time and reigning ASCS National champion Gary Wright sits atop the point charts. Gunning for an unprecedented fifth consecutive series crown, "The Texan" has finished among the top ten in all 13 feature events this season.

Wright's consistency has resulted in a 38-point advantage with the initial one-third of the season essentially in the record books. While Wright has reached victory lane just once thus far however, it is Jason Johnson that has recently climbed into second in points on the strength of four feature wins.

After earning runner-up honors in ASCS National points over each of the past two seasons, Louisiana's Johnson ranks as the only driver to post more than one National victory this year. And he has piled on to the win count, allowing "The Ragin' Cajun" to chip away at the deficit incurred when forced to use a provisional starting position in an early season feature event.

Just 12 more points back in third is Oklahoma City native Wayne Johnson. The past ASCS National champion that now calls Knoxville, IA, home is the only driver other than Wright to start all 13 feature events without the aid of a provisional. While shut out of victory lane thus far, Johnson has finished among the top ten in 12 of 13 mains.

The trio of Zach Chappell, Travis Rilat and Garry Lee Maier have been dicing for position throughout the year, with Talala, Oklahoma's Chappell currently in fourth, Rilat of Forney, TX, in fifth and Cimarron, KS, racer Maier in sixth. Chappell, Rilat and Maier are all past ASCS National champions, making for five past series champions among the top six in points. Only Jason Johnson has yet to claim a crown.

Twenty-year-old Eric Baldaccini of Keller, TX, is currently ranked seventh in points and leading the way in the Brodix Rookie of the Year points chase. Baldaccini leads a talented Rookie crop that includes Sapulpa, Oklahoma's Kenneth Walker (ninth), Washington-state native Gary Taylor (12th), seventeen-year-old Kathryne Minter of Bedford, TX, (13th) and Greenville, TX, shoe Chris Tarrant (14th).

Adding an April 26 National win to an earlier Sooner Region victory, Nick Smith of Broken Arrow, OK, enters the Northern Swing on the upswing at eighth in points.

Rounding out the contingent of full-time ASCS National Tour travelers is 20-year-old Donnie Ray Crawford of Tulsa, OK. Crawford took the seat of Bobby Sparks' No. 91 entry during the series Red River Shootout at State Fair Speedway and Devil's Bowl Speedway on May 9-10 and posted his first career top-five feature finish in Sprint Car action with a fifth-place ASCS Sooner Region run at Little Rock's I-30 Speedway this past Saturday night.

Completing the current top ten in ASCS National driver points is 18-year-old Jack Dover of Springfield, NE, who captured his first career National win at Oklahoma City's State Fair Speedway on May 9.

Fargo, North Dakota's Natalie Sather kicks off her ASCS Midwest Region title defense at the June 20 Knoxville Raceway event, while 20-year-old Lee Grosz of Harwood, ND, opens his ASCS Northern Plains Region title defense as well during the upcoming Northern Swing.
