RAIN CONQUERS GAS CITY’S USAC INDIANA MIDGET WEEK RUN
By: Richie Murray – USAC Media
Gas City, Indiana (June 10, 2022)………Mother nature scored the victory during Friday night’s USAC Indiana Midget Week program at Gas City I-69 Speedway.
Rain fell at the start of the Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts semi-feature and continued to precipitate progressively harder throughout the night, forcing cancellation of the USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship event.
Tickets from Friday night’s event are good to use for the remaining USAC events at Gas City during the 2022 season, including USAC Indiana Sprint Week on July 22 and the James Dean Classic on September 22.
Chance Crum (Snohomish, Wash.) captured his first career Fatheadz Fast Qualifying time earlier in the evening. Jacob Denney (Galloway, Ohio) scored the victory in Simpson Race Products Heat One; Mitchel Moles (Raisin City, Calif.) in Competition Suspension, Inc. Heat Two; Kaidon Brown (Sydney, NSW) in Pit Stop USA Heat Three; and Jerry Coons Jr. (Tucson, Ariz.) in Rod End Supply Heat Four. Moles was the Dirt Draft Hot Laps Fastest Driver.
USAC Indiana Midget Week resumes on Saturday night, June 11, at Kokomo Speedway, and concludes on Sunday night, June 12, at Circle City Raceway in Indianapolis.
