The Midwest Sprint Car Series will open their season at the Brownstown Speedway on April 12th. This will mark the first ever visit of the MSCS to the famed 1/4 mile oval. With the event being held on "neutral grounds" so to speak, its hard to tell who the early favorite might be. The event will pay $2,000 to the winner.
45 entries were on hand last year for an unsanctioned Non Wing Sprint Car event, with Jon Stanbrough edging out Jesse Hockett for the victory in an exciting finish. Along with the MSCS Sprint Cars will be UMP Super Stocks and Pure Stocks. To assure that the event moves along in a timely fashion, lineups will be done by MSCS procedure, and the UMP Super Stocks and Pure Stocks will line up via pill draw. Brownstown Speedway is located on Highway 250 at the Jackson County Fairgrounds 1 mile southeast of Brownstown, Indiana For more information log on to http://www.brownstownspeedway.com Chris Nunn |

last years feature at brownstown was one of the best races i saw all year and best finishes... and people are complaining about the amount of water... it was 2 and 3 wide all the way back and the finish came down to the last 10 feet with one car on the edge and the other on the bottom... it doesnt get any better... hopefully april 12th is just as good

That was a really good race. I remember being surprised bythe 3 wide at times.
Its worth pointing out the 45 sprint cars was result of Lawrenceburg being rained out. The car count would have been lower but still respectable. I remember seeing the parade of sprint cars coming in from Lawrenceburg afgter they got rained out. We will certainly be there to see the MSCS on on the 12th. |

This is how it will more than likely go Hotlap Sprints Hotlap Super Stocks Hot Lap Pure Stocks Sprint Heats Super Heats Pure Stock heats Sprint Consi Super Stock Consi Pure Stock Consi if needed Sprint Feature Super Stock Feature Pure Stock feature There is no need to run Sprint Cars first and then our guys (who are there EVERY week, to be shafted to after everything else) Things will be ran in a timely manner, and you will get out at a good time |

Just as a point of record there were 29 sprint cars in the Brownstown pits before the 'Burg rainout. About 20 more cars came from there.

Thats a good question Jason. I am sure there will be some activity at the track, dump trucks, concrete trucks, cranes, lots of different classes running. The web site stated they cancelled open practice on the 5th. I am assuming we will know by the 5th if Dave plans to open on the 12th.
