Congrats to all the 1000cc cars and Todd Lehr in his Evolution car from WIMS. Sure wish we could have made it. Those up dates help get other racers excited.

Honest Dad himself

Hollingsworth and Berryhill put on a good show for the lead. Shane spun while running second came through the field back to Berryhill. After that it was lead swapping between Hollingsworth and Berryhill until the very end.

Also, congrats to Lynsey Tilton for winning the first track championship for the Midget class.

Thanks everyone for your support tonight. We appreciate it!

Tate Martz also did a great job in the Don Moore 10. While running second he slipped over the cushion in one on lap nine, caught the guardrail with the right rear and did a "Tommy Tipover". Got righted and pushed off, came up through the field to get 6th. He picked off four cars in the last green-white-checker restart riding around up on the rim; pretty ballsy after getting bit up there earlier...

Once things got going..it was really good racing..the battle for the lead was pretty intense..Tate Martz is a gasser..the mini sprints did well..I want to personally thank everyone for coming out tonight..Everyone have a great night!

Sounds like a good show...Sounds like the Evolution car kept up really nice with the midgets because it is a midget...You guys can keep it down there if ya want... because it don't belong in the mini sprint class up here...

A very enjoyable night of midget racing at Montpelier last night. It was fun to watch Shane Hollingsworth charge from the rear of the field back up to battle Travis Berryhill for the lead during the later portion of the feature. Shane used all of the race track to get back up to the front. Good battles throughout the field as well.

As mentioned by jjones752, Tate Martz in Don Moore's #10 was running the high line and caught the guardrail and flipped. I thought that he would be done for the night and off to the pits when they got him pointed in the right direction and pushed him off. Instead of moving off of the top line he got up on the wheel and pushed it harder on top to come home with a respectable finish. The kids a gasser for sure.

We also stayed for the modifieds and the feature was very good. A lot of side by side racing and they put on a good show for the folks in attendance.

Congratulations to Lynsey Tilton on her championship and also a big congrats to the Montpelier Speedway staff for a nice evening of racing. I hope the midget deal can work for you folks and we can have an alternative to sprint cars on Saturday.

I thought the crowd was decent and a lot of kids at the races. Also a class act by Shane Hollingsworth to give a kid in the crowd the trophy in front of crowd after the feature. The smile on the kids face was priceless. Probably will be a Shane Hollingsworth fan for life.

I would like to see the show moved along better than it was last night. Too much down time and when you have a curfew I would think that would use the time wisely. Instead of 20 lap features for the midgets and the modifieds, maybe you could make them 25 laps and offer more racing. Just my opinion and we were still out of there at 10:20 PM so no major complaint. We look forward to hearing the plans for midget racing next year.

This was a really great night of racing. All kinds of power plants were in the field. As pointed out, Tate Martz was awesome. He really let it all hang out. He must have caught that guard rail by about an inch going for the lead, but the car is OK and he is OK. He will be back.

A huge thank you goes to the management of Montpelier Speedway for believing that midgets can make a comeback in the state of Indiana. They have stuck with this plan when no other promoter was willing to stick their neck out and it seemed to have all come together last night. 21 midgets in the pits is quite an accomplishment. Montpelier is a terrific midget track and we look forward to watching this series grow. Thanks again for making this happen! And by the way.... NO TIRE RULE!! We saved a ton of money last night by not being forced to buy the purple tires. Hurray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to Tate and Don. Bout time someone put him in a fullsize Midget. Thanks Don.
