Three new drivers will join the Must See Racing Sprint Series Presented by Perfit-Parts when the series invades the state of New York on Saturday.
The series will be competing at Lancaster Motorplex in Lancaster, New York for the first time. It will be only the second time in the series history that MSR has competed in New York state. The series visited Shangri-La II Speedway in Tioga Center and Oswego Speedway in Oswego in 2012. Both events drew huge crowds and Aaron Pierce and Jimmy McCune picked up the victories, respectively.
Three drivers who have never competed in an MSR points-paying event, or haven’t competed in a very long time, are set to join the tour this weekend. Justin Harper, John Inman and Aaron Willison will test their skill against the MSR regulars on neutral ground.
Harper is a former AVSS Rookie of the Year. Inman is a former Southern Sprint Car Shootout series champion. Willison is five months removed from his 50K victory in the Open Wheel Showdown at the Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Each of the drivers are more than capable of giving the MSR regulars a run for their money.
It will be the first-ever visit of winged sprint cars to Lancaster Motorplex, a 5/8-mile speedway just south of Buffalo, New York. ISMA Supermodifieds have previously visited the speedway.
Bobby Santos III picked up the MSR season opener at Berlin Raceway on May 18. He will be one of many drivers battling for the $5,000 first-place prize money Saturday night. Other expected entrants include Davey Hamilton Jr., Rick Holley, Bobby Komisarski, Joe Liguori, Ryan Litt, Kevin Mingus, Dalton Rombough and Joe Speakman, among others.
