Farmer CityFarmer City, IL – June 6, 2014. Tyler Courtney of Indianapolis, IN, won the Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car feature held Friday night at the ¼ mile Farmer City Raceway. The victory capped an exciting evening of firsts! It was the first appearance for the series at this track. In winning the 25 lap main event, Courtney posted his first MSCS feature victory. Also it was the first 410 non-wing sprint victory for the young man and it came early in his second year of piloting a sprint car.

Courtney was driving for Illinois car owner Rick Pollock. His Maxim sprinter is sponsored by Bates Commodities. Courtney had a perfect night as he also won the first heat race. He started fourth in the feature race and took the lead on lap ten. He handled overtaking the lapped traffic well and maintained a lead until the checkers flew.

Brandon Mattox finished second in the main. He lead the first nine laps after starting on the pole. Brent Beauchamp finished third.
Kyle Cummins was the next to cross the finish line. The former MSCS Champion capitalized on an opportunity and took over the 2014 Points lead. Cummins was followed by Bret Tripplett. All four drivers were in the middle of a continuous three or four car battle to gain a higher top five finish. Tripplett had won the other heat race.

Carson Short, Bradley Sterrett, Mitch Wissmiller, Chad Davenport, and Keaton Dobbs rounded out the top ten. Aaron Farney was 11th and thus the recipient of the Wilwood Tuff Brakes Award. Dobbs was the Keizer Aluminum Wheels Hard Charger of the Race in gaining 8 spots in the twenty car field. Cars formed several competitive packs that provided action at every turn. There were only three caution flags to slow the proceedings.

The Farmer City event was the seventh on this season’s MSCS schedule.
The event drew an equal number of Indiana & Illinois based sprint car racing teams. Four drivers in competition were completely new to the series! MSCS will return to the Prairie State on July 5th for a Saturday night appearance at Clay County Speedway in Flora, IL.

MSCS will be idle one weekend and then set to race once each of the next 3 weekends. The Southern Indiana Sprint Stampede is the next event scheduled. The MOWA Winged Sprint Cars and the MSCS Sprints will both be on the racing card at Tri-State Speedway on June 21st.
Then on the 28th MSCS will share the spotlight with the POWRi Midgets and Micro Sprints. These programs have the key ingredients open wheel fans seek – lots of action!
