(McCook, NE) — The United Rebel Sprint Series resumes tonight (Fri. May 16) at Red Willow County Speedway in McCook, Nebraska. Mike Wilson has the live call on RacinBoys.com with action getting underway at 8:00 p.m. Click the “RacinBoys Radio” button on the RacinBoys home page to listen.
Last weeks season opener winner at DCRP, Zac Taylor, will lead the Rebels along with last years National Champion Jake Bubak and many other of the URSS regulars as they take on the hometown hot shoes of Darren and Nate Berry and last weeks McCook weekly winner Ron Hadley on the ¼ mile high banked oval.
Also returning to the seat for the first time in many years, URSS founder Rick Salem will set aside his promoter hat and will pilot the Hilker/Schartz owned Sgt. Christopher Ryan Kruse 911 tribute car. When asked about driving in his series Salem commented “You know I’ve spent the last 8 years in the infield watching these guys in what I feel is the most affordable and the most competitive series I have ever seen. I’ve watched all the great racing and the fun these guys are having and have always wished this series would have been around when I was racing seriously. So when Steve Hilker called me last fall and asked if I would consider driving this car I was truly honored and decided I wasn’t getting any younger and it might be the last chance to experience what these guys have been doing now going on our 9th year”.
