Sprint Invaders

by Bill Wright

June 5, 2024 – The Mohrfeld Solar Sprint Invaders have a busy weekend planned and the weather forecast is fantastic! On Friday, June 7, the series takes to the Scotland County Speedway 3/8-mile oval in Memphis, Missouri, and on Sunday, June 9, returns to the Adams County (IL) Speedway in Quincy, Illinois!

The Sprint Invaders have run seven events in their history at the Scotland County Speedway, and has had seven different winners there. This will be their first visit in six years. Previous winners include John Schulz, Tyson Hart, Terry McCarl, Jerrod Hull, Bobby Hawks, Jeff Mitrisin and Evan Martin, so there is a great chance Friday will see its eighth different victor.

Hot laps are scheduled for 6:45 p.m. on Friday, with racing to follow. Grandstand admission is $15 for adults, with kids 7-16 $7. Kids 6 and under are FREE. Modifieds, Stock Cars, B-Mods and Sport Compacts are also on the card.

Sunday marks the thirteenth time the Sprint Invaders have visited Quincy. Like Memphis, Quincy has seen its share of new winners. Twelve different drivers have visited Victory Lane, with Kaley Gharst being the only pilot with two wins. Other winners include Ricky Logan, Matt Sutton, Jim Moughan Jr., Hull, Chris Martin, Jon Agan, Joe B. Miller, Garet Williamson, Chase Randall, and last year, Paul Nienhiser.

Sunday’s hot laps are at 5:30 p.m. Admission is $15, with Seniors $12 and Kids 6-13 $5. 5 and under are FREE. Crates, A Mods and Crown Vics are also racing.

Nienhiser leads the series’ point race, followed by defending champion, Ryan Bunton, two-time champ Cody Wehrle, Colton Fisher and three-time titlist Ryan Jamison. Tasker Phillips, Tyler Lee, Dustin Clark, McCain Richards and Chase Richards round out the current top ten.
