Brad Strunk Racing tames Tri-State Speedway....and 26 other winged mini sprints for yet another victory!

Brad Strunk continues his dominance in the Midwest Mini Sprint Association for the 2019 racing season.
Brad set par for the night by taking his heat win in style. BSR also had a second car in competition with Rod Henning behind the wheel, which would go on to take heat 3 win. The only race that BSR did not win Saturday night was heat 2, because there was not a BSR car in that preliminary. Cody Trammell would take heat 2 and place himself right between the 2 BSR cars for the main event.

The feature event would roll off with a pair of unexpected cars setting on the front row, thus giving both of them their best opportunity of 2019 to pick up a MMSA feature event. Cindy Chambers would start P1 and lead the field to the green. Her lead would be eaten up in short matter with P2 starter Chris Baumeyer. By the end of lap one Brad Strunk would have gotten by both Chambers and Baumeyer to lead lap one. Strunk would lead his teammate, Rod Henning, for several circuits. On lap 10 Cody Trammell would make his way around Henning and set his sights on Strunk. Strunk would catch lap traffic not once but 3 times, as Trammell was ready to pounce the caution would fly. Strunk would run 20 perfect laps to claim yet another victory in 2019.

Top ten for Saturday would include Strunk. Trammell, Henning, Chambers, Coffey, Smith, Schindler, Baumeyer, Powell and Moan. Brandon Coffey would pick up the hard charger award, starting 18th and finishing 5th. A plus 13 positions is a great accomplishment on any track.

Congrats to all competitors for a good night of racing.

Next MMSA event will be Saturday July 20th at Lincoln Park Speedway.

Kinser Medler breaks through as the newest first time MMSA winner at Lincoln Park Speedway...

I have a dream,
that on one hot summer day I can go to the racetrack with my family, (racing family is our lively hood),
I have a dream,
that when I arrive at the track I can get a good pill draw for my preliminary event, (number 2),
I have a dream,
that the good pill draw carries over to a dominate preliminary win, (first place in heat)
I have a dream,
that I can race for 20 laps with some of the best racers in the area to claim my first ever Midwest Mini Sprint Association feature event, (first MMSA feature win)

Well this dream is no longer a dream, it is now reality for the 17 year old Albion/West Salem Illinois racer Kinser Medler as he joins the long list of MMSA feature event winners!

This is no easy task to join the elite, Kinser had to battle some very tough competition.
The likes of a past USAC Lightning Sprint Champion, Rod Henning!
The likes of a past series MMSA Lightning Sprint Champion, Cody Trammell!
The likes of a past series champions in their own elite class and ranks in other series and organizations, Brad Strunk, Travis Stickels, and Dean Parker! Along with many up and coming winners in this series.

Kinser would ride his little puddle jumper motor cycle to the MMSA trailer to pull a number 2 for the nights preliminary event. This putting him P1 in heat two for the nights racing action at Lincoln Park. Kinser would be challenged in his heat for the win by young Austin Powell and Rod Henning. Kinser would take heat two and by MMSA rules he would start 4th in the main event.

Heat one would test and see how close the MMSA racing families commitment to the sport really is....for on lap 5, the 8E8 car, Ethan Rutherford, would get in the back of the ailing 14L machine of Tim Light and do a series of barrel rolls on the front straightaway. To the crowds pleasure, Ethan would walk away from his badly damaged ride. The long walk across the infield to the pit area was met by the MMSA four wheeler and Dustin in turn 3 to give him a lift to his pit area.
Before the car ever arrived to his pit stall there were several guys from several other teams, and members from past years, Vermillion boys, ready to put their own helping hands together to help repair the car for the main event. While in Rutherfords pit area, the car owner and driver of the 14L, Jim Reynolds and Tim Light, comes over, and offers help and what ever was needed off of their car was offered. Rutherfords wing would take the brunt of the wreck, in less than 10 minutes the 14L's wing was setting in the Rutherford pit area ready to put on car when needed. Nice sportsmanship from Reynolds and Light. Many other teams brought tools, parts, and more to the rescue. Eventually it was determined the 14L wing would not work, therefore the alternative was to use the mangled 8E8 wing to make the main event happen for Ethen. With a tow strap and wire and who knows what else they used, the work was completed and the car looked like something from the land down under.....thanks to all that helped Ethan!!!!!!

So heat two would be come to close with Keith Langley winning with Colin Miller and Cindy Chambers rounding out the top 3.

The main event was set with Austin Powell and Cindy Chambers being the lucky two with the passing point inversion in their favor in row one. Row two would be Henning and Medler, and most passing points going to Keith Langley and Collin Miller to set row three. Powell would get the jump on Chambers at the start to lead the first 13 circuits around the 1/4 mile dirt track in Putnamville, IN. Austin would be challenged by Medler and Henning while navigating through lap traffic. Lap 14, Medler would pass Powell in traffic in turns one and two. Lap 16 the one and only caution would fly for a mid pack challenge between two drivers, Chambers and Coffey, going for the same piece of real estate. Not enough real estate to go around, left the Chambers car sitting in turn 3 in the wrong direction, as the car was righted, track officials and MMSA officials determined the Chambers car had some assistance, therefore both Chambers and Coffey would be directed to the tail of the field. The final 4 laps would be a nail biter as Powell peeked several times to the inside of Medler with Henning pounding the cushion and nearly stole the victory on the high side.

Medler would take the win and be greeted in victory lane with his family and friends. I could not resist, so after clearing the second and third place car at scales, I joined the celebration on the front straight and took my first photo ever with a MMSA victor while in victory lane!

After the exciting, so called wing dance, interview and all pictures taken, Medler still had to clear weight and tech. After a brief, but probably what felt like and an internity, moment at the scales the car passed tech.

Congrats to our newest first time MMSA feature winner, Kinser Medler!

Top 10 were Medler, Powell, Henning, Langley, Trammell, Strunk, Miller, Coffey, Parker, and Schindler.
The car from down under (8E8) would make 5 green flag laps and pull it pit side.

Side note....Not every night goes in your favor, but we all must keep in mind we are doing something we all love...racing!
I would not give up anything for the fun and friendship I have gained thru the 49 years of racing.
So lets all keep in mind, next time things go array, there are less unfortunate people in this world, that that would give nearly anything to do what you all do!

Thanks to all for making MMSA to what it is....
