1/4/19 6:42 PM BISCHAK TO RUN FULL PAVEMENT SILVER CROWN SLATE IN 2019
http://usacracing.com/news/silver-cr...-slate-in-2019 ![]() BISCHAK TO RUN FULL PAVEMENT SILVER CROWN SLATE IN 2019 Indianapolis, Indiana (January 4, 2019)………Derek Bischak, who made his USAC Silver Crown debut a year ago, has added to his schedule and will contest all six pavement races with the series in 2019. Bischak’s racing resume includes multiple Quarter Midget Association national championships and a victory at the Rumble in Fort Wayne Midget race in 2012.* But, with just two races under his belt in a champ car, the 30-year-old driver looks forward to stepping into a challenge that he’s ready to take on in his No. 31 Beast chassis with a Gaerte engine. “Long races are definitely a challenge,"*Bischak explained in an interview with Speed Sport.**Running midgets is a lot about shorter sprints or non-stop go's, where in the Silver Crown Series, you have to conserve your stuff and the cars are a lot bigger and heavier.* It’s more mental and being smart about it, but I’m excited for the challenge.” Bischak, of Angola, Ind., made a pair of appearances in Silver Crown competition in 2018, qualifying 5th and finishing 20th in his debut which ended with an accident at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis in May.* In June, at Madison (Wisc.) International Speedway, he qualified 12th and dropped out early in the race, finishing 18th, following brake issues. “We tried a couple of the races this past year and just had a few issues with our car and getting everything sorted out,” Bischak said. “Going into a new season, with the way the schedule lays out, I think it will work out well for us as we attempt to grow our program and I think it’ll be a really fun time. I’m looking forward to it a lot.” * 2019 USAC SILVER CROWN SCHEDULE Mar 22-23: (P#) Memphis International Raceway (Millington, TN) Apr 14: (D) Terre Haute Action Track (Terre Haute, IN) Apr 27: (P) Toledo Speedway (Toledo, OH) May 23: (D) Indiana State Fairgrounds (Indianapolis, IN) May 24: (P) Lucas Oil Raceway (Brownsburg, IN) Jun 14: (D) Williams Grove Speedway (Mechanicsburg, PA) Jun 28: (P) Madison International Speedway (Oregon, WI) Aug 10: (P) Salem Speedway (Salem, IN) Aug 17: (D#) Illinois State Fairgrounds (Springfield, IL) Sep 1: (D) Du Quoin State Fairgrounds (Du Quoin, IL) Sep 7: (P) Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis (Brownsburg, IN) Sep 27-28: (D) Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, OH) ----------------------------- (P) = Pavement Race (D) = Dirt Race # = Daytime Race |
