Denney And Tmez Get The Big Wins At LPS On Indiana Midget Week Night 2022
32 spirints entered the gates on Midget week night and would put on a great show. The qualifying groups were led by Tmez(13.291), Charles Davis Jr. (13.028), Evan Mosley (13.016) and Emerson Axsom( 13.072). The 4 heat races were won by Brady Bacon, Jake Swanson, Harley Burns and Jake Scott. This setup the A main with an invert of 6 which put Tmez and Charles Davis on the front row. Tmez who was in the 2E Epperson entry would head to the big curb early and take the lead. Axsom would bring out the caution early which would make him restart 20th. On the restart the guys that are good on the cushion at LPS started to come to the front. Swanson, Hopkins and Beauchamp were headed to the front in which many Saturday nights we see that. Tmez would really look strong as Jake, AJ and Brent were hoping to get close enough to start the famous slide jobs for the lead. Tmez would prove even getiing into lapped traffic that he was the quickest up front and stayed on the cushion keeping the others behind him with a safe lead. Tmez would hold on for the 25 lap win over Jake Swanson, Brent Beauchamp, AJ Hopkins, Brady Bacon and Emerson Axsom who came from 20th after the first incident of the feature. A great show on Midget Week night by the sprinters.
The Usac Midgets brought a great group of 38 midgets for Midget Week night. It was a great show with Jacob Denney getting the win over Zach Daum and Jerry Coons Jr. on the podium. The Mod Lites brought 4 entries with Andy Tragesser winning the heat and the A main. Following Andy at the finish was Joe Boyll, Dale Grote and Jeff Cast. Saturday night Mother Nature won after the 3 sprint heats so that leads us into a huge weekend. Friday night we have the Kevin Huntley Memorial at Bloomington Speedway with huge purses for the 410 sprints and the 305 sprints. This will be a show you won't want to miss because it also includes a huge Fireworks show with Mods, Super Stocks and also Hornets joining us. Then this Saturday is the 1st Annual Fast Freddy Classic at LPS which is an honor to have a race in memory of Fred Hopkins. Both nights have huge money for the sprints. We look forward to seeing our great teams and fans at both Bloomington Speedway Friday and then back at LPS on Saturday night.
