Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (May 3, 2007) – The American Sprint Car Series Midwest Region has added another date to the 2007 schedule, as the series will make a return to the Butler County Motorplex in Rising City, NE.



The ASCS Midwest Region will take to the high-banked, 3/8-mile Butler County Motorplex dirt oval on Friday night, June 1.



Last year, the ASCS Midwest Region made a July appearance at the Butler County Motorplex with past ASCS National champion Garry Lee Maier of Cimarron, KS, coming away with the victory.



This year's Butler County Motorplex outing will mark the fourth of eleven events currently schedule for the ASCS Midwest Region at seven different tracks throughout Nebraska and the surrounding area including Iowa, Kansas and Missouri.



The series opened the season with a pair of events versus the ASCS Northern Plains Region at Nebraska Raceway Park's I-80 Speedway on April 14 and 15, with Missouri's Brian Brown and South Dakota's Chuck Swenson taking the victories.



Swenson holds the series early point lead over Wayne Johnson, Don Droud, Jr., Rick Ideus and Mike Boston.



Before taking to the Butler County Motorplex, the series next outing will be at Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, NE, on Friday night, May 25.



The 2007 season marks the 16th year of sanctioning Sprint Car racing for the American Sprint Car Series, with the series set to sanction approximately 240 nights of racing at more than 100 different race tracks throughout at least 30 different states and Canada.
