- CROWNING A CHAMPION: $10K MLRA SEASON FINALE SET FOR LUCAS OIL SPEEDWAY
Wheatland, Missouri (October 24th, 2023) - The Lucas Oil MLRA will give it one more go at a season finale this coming Saturday, October 28th, when the series rolls into the Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, MO for the 9th time in 2023. The impromptu season finale comes about after the 4th Annual MLRA Championship Weekend was washed out two weeks ago at the Tri-City Speedway. The 2023 campaign will come down to a one night stand at the "Diamond of Dirt Tracks", with a $10,000 to win and $700 to start season Finale headlining the nights action. "Mother Nature has had the upper hand in 2023 with eight total rainouts on our schedule, commented MLRA Series Director Ernie Leftwich. "When we were not able to schedule a return to Tri-City due to scheduling conflicts, we knew coming to Wheatland was our next best option for crowning our series Champion and Sunoco Rookie of the Year on the track. If anyone has the facility to get this show in, it's Danny Lorton and his staff at Lucas. We can't thank them enough for extending their season and putting this event together for the racers and fans alike." Joining the Midwest Late Model Racing Association (MLRA) will be the USRA Modifieds and POWRi Super Stocks. Each will pay $2,000 to win and follow the same MLRA time trial qualifying format. CHAMPIONSHIP PICTURE- Chad Simpson enters the finale poised to wrap up his 4th career Lucas Oil MLRA title. The Mount Vernon, Iowa driver holds a 270 point advantage over younger brother Chris Simpson. Chad Simpson will become the first driver to go back-to-back with the MLRA since 2011 - 2012, when John Anderson last completed the feat. Thus far, in non co-sanctioned MLRA events Chad Simpson has just one finish outside the top 10, that being an 11th place run back in April at the 34 Raceway. His series leading 3 wins also comes with an impressive avg finish of 3.67. This will mark the 3rd time that the driver of the Deuce Nickel has wrapped up the title at the Lucas Oil Speedway. He polished off his 2018 title in style, by winning the season finale and will try to do so again this weekend. A feature win would send him back to the Hawkeye state with $30,000 in his pocket, with the series champion receiving $20,000. Brother Chris Simpson holds a comfortable, but not fully secured, 100 point advantage for the series runner-up position over Dillon McCowan. Chris will be seeking his highest finish ever in the season long MLRA standings and is also set to collect a $10,000 payday from the MLRA point fund if he can maintain the advantage over McCowan. Chris Simpson has 16 MLRA wins to his credit dating back to 2009, and will be looking to get the monkey off his back and score his first MLRA win in Wheatland in the finale. Daniel Hilsabeck and Trevor Gundaker round out the top five. Representing six through ten are Justin Duty, Jeff Herzog, Garrett Alberson, Tyler Stevens, and series rookie Dustin Hodges. SUNOCO ROOKE OF THE YEAR- McCowan has all but wrapped up the series coveted Sunoco Race Fuel Rookie of the Year award for 2023, fending off a host of drivers in one of the strongest rookie classes in a number of years. The 19 year old from Urbana, MO has three top fives in MLRA action, two of those being third place podium runs coming in just the last 3 MLRA races of the season. McCowan will be back in familiar territory this weekend as he looks to wrap up the rookie crown, but more importantly he will be looking to score his first career MLRA victory. McCowan scored a $5,000 victory this past Friday at the Super Bee Speedway in Chatham, LA. TURN-FOUR NOTES- Finale In Wheatland: Saturday will mark the 7th time in the MLRA's storied 35 year history, and first since 2019, that the season finale takes place at the Lucas Oil Speedway. Chad Simpson is the only driver to date to have won both the season finale and Championship in Wheatland on the same night. Series officials have already announced that the 2024 MLRA Championship weekend will return to the Tri-City Speedway. One-Two Punch: The brotherly due of Chad and Chris Simpson have put up some remarkable stats in 2023. Most impressively may be the fact that the Iowa boys have went 1-2 on four different occasions. Wins for Chad at Davenport, Lake Ozark and Lucas Oil Speedway, with Chris grabbing a "W" in the family affair at Lake Ozark as well. The most recent top two sweep came at Lucas on the final night of the Ron Jenkins Memorial back on September 2nd Elite Company: A 4th MLRA Championship for Chad Simpson would put him in an elite club of drivers to have won four or more titles. He would join the series winningest driver Terry Phillips with a fourth championship, and trail only Alan Vaughn (5 championships), and Al Purkey (7 championships) in the records books. Contingency Awards Up For Grabs: Not only will Championship point funds be up for grabs, but a pair of season long contingency awards are still undecided heading into the weekend. A pair of series regulars are knotted up atop the "MD3 Hard Charger" standings in Justin Duty and Jeff Herzog. MD3 will present an overall hard charger worth $500 at the conclusion of the season. In addition, the MyRacePass "Overall Fast Time Award" it yet to be decided. Chad Simpson is the highest ranking MLRA member driver with two Fast Time Awards, while a number of other drivers are within striking distance with one each. Purkey To Hall of Fame-- It was announced this past weekend that 7 x MLRA series Champion Al Purkey of Coffeyville, KS will be inducted next summer into the National Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame as part of the 2024 class. MLRA would like to congratulate Al on this well deserved accomplishment.

- Austin Hartmann aims for IRA Labor Day weekend doubleheader bounce back
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) August 30, 2023 - After being involved in one of the most violent-looking accidents of the 2023 Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series season last Friday, Aug. 25 at 34 Raceway, Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing team have worked diligently in recent days to prepare the team's backup car for the traditional IRA Labor Day weekend doubleheader at the Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway in Beaver Dam, Wis. on Friday, Sept. 1 and The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. during the Sheboygan County Fair on Saturday, Sept. 2. With 32 IRA Sprint Cars signed in for the second IRA program of the 2023 season at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa on Friday, Aug. 25, Hartmann opened the night on a strong note by recording the sixth fastest overall qualifying lap with a time of 13.183 seconds. After starting third in the second eight-lap IRA heat race, Hartmann got out of shape along the cushion and flipped into the turn two wall before his 87A car caught fire. Hartmann was uninjured in the incident. However, the accident resulted in significant damage to the 87A Hartmann Racing team's primary car and ended Hartmann's night early. The Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series was scheduled to compete with support from the Midwest Open Wheel Association (MOWA) 410 Sprint Cars at Federated Auto Parts Speedway in Pevely, Mo. on Saturday, Aug. 26. However, heavy rain forced the event to be cancelled. Hartmann and the 87A Hartmann Racing team have scrambled over the past several days to put together the team's backup car for IRA competition this weekend, while the damaged primary car has been sent to Maxim Racing for a new front clip. "I want to thank the IRA and 34 Raceway safety crew on the scene, as well as the Neuman family for the hospitality, tearing the car apart and delivering the car to Maxim for us," Hartmann said. "I also want to thank Eric Bergschultz for his hard work and devotion to the team." The weekend kicks off with the annual IRA Harry Neitzel Tribute event on Friday, Sept. 1 at the horsepower half-mile Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway in Beaver Dam, Wis. Spectator gates open at 5 p.m. with warm-ups at 6 p.m. and hot laps and qualifying to follow before opening ceremonies begin at 7:30 p.m. The Akright Auto Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Cars and A Modifieds will also be on the card. On Saturday, Sept. 2, the Plymouth, Wis.-based 87A Hartmann Racing team will return home to The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. for the annual all-Sprint Car event during the Sheboygan County Fair, featuring the Bumper to Bumper IRA 410 Sprint Cars and Akright Auto MSA 360 Sprint Cars.

- Arenz shakes off early challenges, secures top-10 IRA 34 Raceway showing
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) August 23, 2023 - It was the case of same story, different track for Travis Arenz and the Travis Arenz Motorsports team, as the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series made its second appearance of the 2023 season at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa on Friday, Aug. 25. Much as it has for the majority of the 2023 campaign, the program got off to a bit of a sluggish start with Arenz posting the 17th fastest overall qualifying time in the 31-car field with a lap of 13.544 seconds. Arenz then started on the pole of the third eight-lap IRA heat race before dropping back to finish fourth in the eight-lap event. The 2021 and 2022 Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car champion then drew the 16th starting spot in the 30-lap main event. When the green flag dropped on the 30-lap headliner, the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. competitor turned in what he is known best for - an inspired charge to the front of the field. When the checkered flag flew, Arenz had advanced seven spots to secure a ninth place showing for his 11th top-five and 13th top 10 A-main finish of the 2023 campaign in a race won by Aaron Reutzel. "This time around at 34 was far better than last time," Arenz said. "We reviewed the set-up notes from the beginning of the season and made some adjustments to the car and had much better results. "In the heat race, I was a little too loose," he said. "I made a few adjustments and fared better come feature time. I had more confidence this time around with having more seat time and experience. I am getting a good feel for this car, and getting better at knowing what the car likes and how to fine tune it. That is allowing us to move forward each night of racing." The Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series was scheduled to compete with support from the Midwest Open Wheel Association (MOWA) 410 Sprint Cars at Federated Auto Parts Speedway in Pevely, Mo. on Saturday, Aug. 26. However, heavy rain forced the event to be cancelled.
