(SOLON SPRINGS, WISCONSIN) The Brady Smith Racing team trekked east from June 28-30 to compete in the 6th Annual ‘Firecracker 100’ presented by GottaRace.com. The World of Outlaws Late Model Series biggie drew a stellar 56 car field to the Keystone State speedplant for the tripleheader weekend. In the pair of $6,000 to win prelims, Brady Smith finished second in his heat race and eighth in the 30-lap feature event on Thursday night, while he won his heat race and led early in the 30-lapper on Friday evening before winding up third behind only winner Dan Stone and runner-up Scott Bloomquist.
Following the strong start to his ‘Firecracker 100’ weekend, the stakes got much higher for Brady on Saturday, as a whopping $30,000 payday was on the line. The Solon Springs, Wisconsin standout won his heat race in preliminary action and later redrew the sixth starting spot prior to the 100-lapper. In front of the cameras of the SPEED Channel, Brady raced hard early in the mega-event, but setup changes made to his #2 entry before the race caused him to slide back through the field. He eventually retired after 54 circuits and wound up twenty-third in the final rundown of the 2012 edition of the ‘Firecracker 100.’ Complete results from Lernerville can be accessed online at www.worldofoutlaws.com.
Next up for the #2 team will be the six-race World of Outlaws Late Model Series “Wild West Tour” from July 6-14. Brady will welcome the national touring series to his turf starting tomorrow night, July 6 at the AMSOIL Speedway in Superior, Wisconsin.
