All C.J. Leary needed was a little luck on his side during the Kokomo Speedway round of Indiana Sprint Week last year. Following an incident the night before at Gas City, the 2019 Indiana Sprint Week champ found lady luck at Kokomo with just three laps remaining when race leader Tyler Courtney spun.
Leading the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship standings at midseason is generally a good thing, you’d surmise. Rolling into the halfway point of the campaign can be seen as a barometer, a measuring stick, if you will, that can provide a window to how the rest of the year will play out, not that it always does.
On occasion, the backup plan ultimately becomes the master plan. A bad vibration and a broken U-Joint forced driver C.J. Leary and his Michael Motorsports team to pull down the spare car from the trailer for the most recent USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car event at Bloomsburg (Pa.) Fair Raceway 12 days earlier.
