Midget Ready To Battle This Sat, May 27 @ Montpelier

BrianBSU23 · 5/26/17, 9:59 AM

The Montpelier Motor Speedway will host its third Midget event of the season this Saturday, May 27th. The Midget race will be the last chance for teams to tune up at Montpelier before the opening night of Indiana Midget Week at MMS on Tuesday, June 6th.

The May 13th event found Justin Peck back in victory lane scoring the first win for the Kenny Irwin Sr. and family since returning to racing. Peck bested current MMS points leader Chase Jones to the finish line followed by Scott Orr, Justin Dickerson, and USAC MWT Winner Korbyn Hayslett with 23 cars in attendance.

The Montpelier Motor Speedway, which began racing in 1903 and hosted its first automobile race in 1915, is one of America’s oldest remaining racing facilities. While the east central Indiana ¼ mile clay oval has a historic past, the facility has seen many major modern upgrades the past four seasons including new restrooms and bleachers along with the addition of many safety features such as a new catch fence system along with a new front stretch wall, lighting system, transponder scoring, and corner runoff areas. The Montpelier Motor Speedway commonly competes weekly on Saturday Nights with its popular Modified and Stock Car divisions and is also the host to the popular Montpelier Motor Speedway Midget series. The Montpelier Motor Speedway serves as a host for USAC National Sprint Cars, USAC Indiana Midget Week, MSCS Sprint Cars, NRA Sprint Invaders, and BOSS Sprint Cars.
