2/14/09, DarinShort.com. Over 225 cars competed in night one of the Cowtown Midget Championships, ASCS2 and February Fast 50; with every class of cars having more than 40 entries.
Here's a brief recap of the midget portion:
When it was all over Brady Bacon 'brought it home' and in a wheelie-popping side-by-side finish, nipped Brady Loyet at the finish line for the win.
It was the only 10 feet of the race the Bacon had led.
Bryan Clauson pressured Loyet hard for several laps, with both drivers popping wheelies half way down the front strech.
Clauson was able to sneak the lead, only to blow a RR tire with a couple of laps to go.
JJ Yeley transferred from B#2 to start 22nd and steadily worked his way through the field to end up in 5th.
Chad McDaniel finished 3rd and George White came from the back after a first lap tangle to end up 4th.
A weather front moved through the area at about 9:30pm, the wind switched to the north, the track slicked off - the rubbered up in the midget B-features; resulting in about one-and-a-half lanes of rubber around the middle of the track.
Six midget drivers found themselves upside down during the event, some in hair raising fasion, but all drivers were reported uninjured.
Complete results will be posted on the results page at the forum on www.CowtownSpeedway.com when they become available.
