How can you mend a broken heart? Well, if you’re Briggs Danner, you simply jump back on the horse, get back to work, and do what you do best.During Wednesday night’s second round of USAC Yokohama Tire Eastern Storm Presented by Levan Machine at New Jersey’s Bridgeport Motorsports Park, Danner did exactly that.
For Briggs Danner, Circle City Raceway just seemed to be one of those places that he couldn’t connect with over the years in USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship competition.
Yet, during Thursday night’s Circle City Salute Presented by Desnuda Tequila, Danner found the Indianapolis, Indiana 1/4-mile dirt oval to his liking, much thanks to a monster curb that bit others, but was one that Danner’s car found bite on.
Allentown, Pennsylvania’s Briggs Danner rolled into New Jersey’s Bridgeport Motorsports Park with one goal – win. He got it, but not without a full-throttle fight from start to finish.
”It’s not really the way we want to do it, but we’ll take them any way we can get them.” On a smattering of occasions throughout the 2024 USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship season, Briggs Danner wound up in the unenvious position of having the proverbial rug pulled out from underneath him while leading late in a race.
