From Bryan Hulbert
EAGLE, Neb. (September 7, 2014) – The Nebraska Cup offered a $5,000 prize to the winner, and Brian Brown gladly swooped in and claimed the winner’s check on Sunday night with the Speedway Motors Midwest Region at the famed Eagle Raceway.
A red on the start followed by a pair of cautions; fourth starting Brian Brown shot to the point and never looked back in a race riddled with cautions. Brown’s eleventh win of the season on a track that saw the preferred line around the top, the win is Brian’s third with the Midwest Region in 2014 and fourth in ASCS competition.
The night’s podium rounded out with Jack Dover and Danny Lasoski. Jay Russell and Tony Bruce, Jr. completed the top five.
A DNF in his Heat Race put Jason Johnson seventh in B-Feature. Advancing to start seventeenth in the A-Main, Johnson charged to sixth with Brandon Hanks seventh. Billy Alley from thirteenth crossed eighth with Don Droud, Jr. and Ryan Roberts making the top ten.
The Speedway Motors Midwest Region caps of the 2014 season on September 19 and 20 with the Casey’s General Store Fall Brawl III at the I-80 Speedway in Greenwood, Neb. For continued updates on the American Sprint Car Series, log onto http://www.ascsracing.com.
