ASCS Midwest Tackles High Banks of U.S. 36 Raceway on Saturday
Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (June 14, 2010) – There’s never any shortage action atop the lightning-fast high banks of U.S. 36 Raceway in Cameron, MO.
This Friday night will be no exception, as the American Sprint Car Series Midwest Region makes the first of three stops atop the 3/8-mile U.S. 36 Raceway clay oval.
Lucas Oil ASCS National contender Jack Dover of Springfield, NE, currently holds the ASCS Midwest points lead as well, rebounding from a Friday night flip this past weekend to claim a runner-up finish in Saturday night’s Eagle Nationals finale to maintain the Midwest points lead.
Dover, an ASCS Midwest winner at U.S. 36 en route to his 2008 series title, holds a 62-point edge over Lincoln, Nebraska’s Billy Alley entering Friday’s card, with Eric Lutz (Sioux Falls), Jason Danley (Lincoln, NE) and Doug Lovegrove (Waverly, NE) rounding out the current top five in points.
The balance of the current top ten in ASCS Midwest points includes John Klabunde, Brian Brown, Chad Humston, Ryan Roberts and Tige Jensen.
The ASCS Midwest Regional forces will take on the Winged Outlaw Warriors in Friday night's U.S. 36 Raceway event.
