โ HIGGINSVILLE, Mo. (May 15) โ Danny Lasoski had a lot of seat time last weekend, but it wasnโt in his sprint car.
The veteran drove almost five hours to the Midwest Open Wheel Associationโs event at Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Ill., on Friday before the race was rained out.
โWe got hot laps in โฆ just enough to get the car muddy,โ Lasoski joked. โIt didnโt even rain hard. It just drizzled enough. You couldnโt race like it like that.โ
It was the second weekend this season that Lasoski made a long haul to a track only to be rained out before the competition started.
โIt was going to be a great nice of racing,โ he said. โYouโre just danged if you do and danged if you donโt.โ
More than 30 sprint cars were on hand before race was called.
Lasoski claimed the MOWA opener on April 23 at 34 Raceway in Burlington, Iowa.
He also planned on racing Saturday at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa โ where heโs the winningest driver. However, that was also rained out.
