From Bloomington Speedway
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The stars and cars of the Midwest Sprint Car Series stormed into Bloomington Speedway and delivered an exciting evening of open wheel action for the season finale during Indiana Stoneworks Night on Friday, September 16. The MSCS brought 40 cars and fought furiously all the way around the red clay oval for a big $5,000 prize.
The full event card featured the MSCS Sprint Cars, the Tire and Wheel Center UMP Indiana Super Stocks and the Chad’s Towing and Recovery Hornets. Jon Stanbrough took the top spot in the Midwest Sprint Car Series Sprint Car feature race while Jeremy Hines and Cole Miles were victorious in their respective classes.
Stanbrough, of Avon Ind., started on the outside of the front row for the MSCS feature race and quickly surged into the lead on the first lap. The race featured fierce side by side and wheel to wheel battles throughout the field as the event finished without a single caution period. Lap after lap, Stanbrough battled on the low side with Levi Jones, of Olney Ill., and the two were forced to duel their way through lapped traffic. In the end, Jones made a final push to get around Stanbrough but came up short by less than a foot at the line as Stanbrough went wire to wire for the win. Brady Short, of Bedford Ind., won the 2011 Bloomington Speedway track championship.
