Haubstadt, IN - June 16, 2014. The next racing event at Tri-State Speedway will present the optimum program to satisfy every sprint car fan’s viewing pleasure. The excitement at the Southern Indiana Sprint Stampede will be two fold on June 21st. The Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car Series will be in action. They will be running Hoosier style without a wing. The Midwest Open Wheel Association winged sprint cars will also be racing outlaw style during a separate portion of this unique double header. It is the only night this year that fans will be able to watch winged and non wing racing on the same card.

It will be the third of nine racing events to be held at Haubstadt for the Midwest Sprint Car Series in 2014. The speedway continues to serve as the home port for the traveling series. The track has had six or more MSCS events on each season’s schedule since 2006. So the ability to compete effectively and win at the Haubstadt quarter mile is one of the keys to taking the MSCS Points Championship.

The appearance of the winged warriors of the MOWA Sprint Car Series follows the recent appearance of the World Of Outlaws at Haubstadt in early May. Six MOWA regulars competed with the outlaws that evening.
Those laps may prove to be valuable experience for the upcoming event. The series has already appeared 8 times at 7 tracks this season. There have been 6 different feature winners. Jerrod Hull of Sikeston, MO, currently leads the MOWA Points Standings.

The current points leader for the Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car Series is Kyle Cummins. Cummins is the third different driver to lead in points this season. The points lead has been an exchange between Hunter Schuerenberg, Jon Stanbrough, and Cummins. Stanbrough is currently fourth in points behind Bradley Sterrett and Carson Short. Brady Short is fifth. Schurenberg is now just one spot out of the top ten. There are still eleven full opportunities for drivers to improve their standing. The Series Title is usually fair game on into September and October until the Harvest Cup finale.

Ten different drivers are eligible so far to compete for the MSCS Rookie of the Year.
The cut-off date for drivers to declare with the series is July 15th.
There are still 3 races on the schedule prior to that date. James Lyerla of Hillsboro, IL, currently leads Aaron Farney and Daylan Chambers in rookie points. Ethan Fleetwood and Charlie Belden Jr. are the next two rookie drivers in the standings. The top three are separated by just 23 points.

The Southern Indiana Sprint Stampede will pay $2,000 to the winner of both sprint car features. Heat races will begin at 7:30 P.M.(
C.D.T.) with engine warm-ups and hot laps to be held earlier between six and six-thirty. Mark your racing calendar for Saturday, June 21st. Last year Kevin Thomas Jr. of Cullman, AL, won the inaugural MSCS feature for this newly devised race while Shane Stewart of Bixby, OK, took the MOWA feature. Regular MSCS campaigner Robert Ballou was the only driver to do double duty. He finished in the top ten in both 25 lap feature races!
