Anderson to pilot for Isaac Chapple Racing at the annual “Night Before the 500”
Joliet, IL native Jim Anderson has been hired by Isaac Chapple Racing to pilot the number 52 Beast/Esslinger powered National midget and Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis (formerly Indianpolis Raceway Park) for this years “Night Before the 500 Classic”. Jimmy will be competing against the nations best midget drivers for the $20,000 winners purse.
“This is a great opportunity for both, myself, and the Chapple family to be able to run at IRP” , said Anderson. “ Isaac is an up and coming driver that is still too young for USAC National competition but he asked me to put this car in the field and go out and try to win it”.
This will be the third time competing at Lucas Oil Raceway for the 2008 UMARA National Champion. He has never made the final A-Main event but feels that after a feature victory this past New Years in Fort Wayne, IN, the momentum is in his favor to break through and race with the best of the best.
Chapple, a 14 year old native of Wilkinson, Indiana will compete in his first season in the National Midgets with USSA this year and select events with the newly formed STARS club at Grundy County Speedway in Morris, IL. Isaac is a veteran of the Kenyon Midget series and looks forward to running in his first National Midget season.
