to the Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series presented by K&N Filters
schedule, as South Dakota's I-90 Speedway is set to host the series in July.
The Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Series will stop off at Hartford, South
Dakota's I-90 Speedway for the third consecutive year on Saturday night,
July 11.
The event atop the semi-banked, 3/8-mile dirt oval follows on the heels of
the $15,000 to win event at Presleyland Motorsports Park in Chandler, IN, on
July 3-4 and serves as an ideal stop as teams make their way to the
Northwest for ensuing events at Washington's Grays Harbor Raceway Park (July
17-18) and Oregon's Cottage Grove Speedway (July 24-25).
It marks the third consecutive year for the nation's premier touring series
to invade I-90 Speedway, with reigning champion Jason Johnson picking up the
win in 2007 after apparent victor Sam Hafertepe, Jr., came up light at the
scales. Last year, Tony Bruce, Jr., fended off Gary Wright in a wild duel
through lapped traffic for his second career series victory.
The July 11 event will also award points to both the ASCS Midwest and
Northern Plains Regions.
The Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series presented by K&N Filters kicked
off the 2009 campaign with the 36th Annual Devil's Bowl Spring Nationals on
March 20-21. With 67 competitors taking part in the opener, Shane Stewart
topped the preliminary feature before Jason Johnson won a hard-fought Spring
Nationals finale.
Foul weather wiped out Oklahoma City's State Fair Speedway Spring Nationals
on March 27-28. No makeup date has been determined.
The Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series fires back into action on Saturday
night, April 18, at Little Rock's I-30 Speedway, with a May slate of events
that includes Tri-City Speedway (Granite City, IL) on May 1, Volunteer
Speedway (Bulls Gap, TN) on May 8-9 and the $10,000 to win Steve King
Memorial at the Jetmore (KS) Motorplex on May 23-24.
The Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series presented by K&N Filters is
currently slated for 35 nights of racing action at 17 different tracks
throughout the nation, with the country's top Sprint Car drivers set to
battle it out for their share of the $250,000 points fund.
The American Sprint Car Series, in its 18th year of sanctioning Sprint Car
racing events, brings the best of Sprint Car racing to nearly 100 different
tracks throughout 25 states and Canada in 2009. Anchored by the Lucas Oil
ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series presented by K&N Filters, ASCS also consists of
