Mid-America Lightning Sprints Presented by Jayhawk Millwright March News Letter

The racing season is here. It is a little over 30 days until the official start of the 2013 season! Mid-America Lightning Sprints Presented by Jayhawk Millwright was started by two racers, for the racers. Our intent is to give Lightning Sprints opportunities to race for better money in front of large crowds to show what our sport is about. Which are fast affordable open wheel race cars. As owners and fans of this sport we feel it is everyone’s obligation to pursue the same goal. This is to increase awareness through participation! We feel our first race of the season is a big step in that direction.

Our first race is at L.A. raceway in LaMonte MO, dubbed Mid-America Lightning Sprints Presented by Jayhawk Millwright Spring Nationals. The Spring Nationals is our way of starting the season with a BANG!!! This race as with all MALS races are guaranteed $650 to win and $70 to start with great money through out the field.

MALS believes racers from outside our area of operation add to our program and we realize with gas and travel expenses not getting any cheaper, travelers may need some help attending any of the five MALS races. Therefore we have come up with a traveler’s incentive package that will take some of the financial burden off of the car owners. There are limited numbers of these incentive programs so be the first to plan a trip to Middle America. The limited tow money will be handled in this manner. "The first 5 drivers that pre-register for any of the five MALS events of 2013 AND TAKES the green flag in the A Feature of that event with a one way tow of 500 miles or more will be eligible for a $100 tow money award. Actual mileage determined by Google Earth." If a driver fails to make the A feature the $100 will go to the next driver in line determined by order they preregistered.
