Great weekend of racing for the MMSA series.
Running Thursday night at Lincoln Park, the MMSA series with the USAC Midget week opened up the racing for this past weekend. Eighteen cars were on tap for this midweek event. With two heat races on the card, current point leader Rod Henning, piloting his Henchcraft, EMI ride, would start his night out right with a heat one victory over Justin Lewis and Bob Griffitts. Heat two would see Rico Abreu out run one of the MMSA best, Scotty Bradley, to punch his ticket for an upfront start in the feature event.
The 20 lap feature would see several take their turn for the bid to win. Andy Bradley would lead much of the race with Henning, Lewis, Bradley and Griffitts in tow. More importantly from the 5th starting position Rico Abreu would be awaiting the later stages on the race to make his move. Late in the race with Bradley leading, with Scott Bradley second, Rod Henning third, Rico fourth, the race leader Bradley ride starts to flutter up front. This allowed the second Bradley, Henning and Abreu to really close in. With a hand full of laps to go, Bradley's night would come up short of a victory. All three would pounce on the Bradley wounded ride. The pressure was on as Henning, Bradley and Abreu would be left to battle. Abreu would take care of the second Bradley and set his sites on his team car. With a couple of laps left Rico would take to the point from Henning and win the MMSA main event at Lincoln Park Speedway, followed by Henning, Bradley and Lewis.

On to Paragon Speedway Saturday night. Twenty cars checked in for another exciting night of racing. This was our first event at Paragon in 2017. Many incentives were announced at the drivers meeting, and by nights end many incentives were paid out to the well deserved racers.
Most importantly the so called bounty on the 10H of Rod Henning and 86 Andy Bradley. Columbus Indiana's Justin Lewis would proudly be the first MMSA regular to take victory and the bounty! It was not an easy victory by any means, Lewis had to out dual 18 year old Cindy Chambers for many laps, as she would stake claim to the top spot for several circuits from the number one starting position. Also in the mist Saturday saw Jesse Vermillion would be one to recon with, as he won heat two, and earning most passing points for the evening.
Couple of other notables, young Howard McCormick made his 2017 MMSA debut with a sixth place finish, and Travis Stickles made his first show of 17 with a 13th place finish. Vermillion racing placed two cars in the top ten. The not so good luck went to MMSA Rookie contender, Raymond Holden, he decided he wanted to be known as the car that flipped 3 times in the heat race, and yet got it back together to run the feature race respectfully with a 16th place ride, even if the wing was not angled right!
MMSA paid out over $400 in driver incentives, congrats to Lewis, Henning, Bradley, Bradley, Vermillion, and Chambers on collecting extra cash incentives.
Next race for MMSA will be Saturday at Twin City Raceway Park!

After 2 weekends of MMSA setting idle, the boys of Summer of 17 will be back at it with 3 races in 8 days!
This Saturday the Winged Mini Sprints invade the Brownstown Speedway. Coming off a rain out last month at the speedway the MMSA contenders will hit Brownstown first of a three events in a weeks time.

Completion of Saturdays show, the boys will regroup and focus on a track that very few have raced on or more less even seen. This wide 1/4 mile track was a very nice racing facility. The MMSA will be in action on Wednesday night as part of the Scott Co fair. Along with the MMSA, Brownstown style big and little endure style races will be ran.

Heading out after race two of three, Twin City Raceway in North Vernon will be the third stop to finish out the 3 race event in 8 nights. This will the second stop at Twin City Raceway in 2017.

With 3 races in short time frame the MMSA group will offer $50 extra to anyone able to complete a top 10 in all 3 events....plus many more incentives given at drivers meeting!
Good Luck and see ya at the track!
