              Briggs and Stratton Racing reaffirms their annual  
              USAC "Battle at the Brickyard" support Program!
            Continuing with tradition, Briggs and Stratton Racing will once again be giving away almost $4,000 in inverter generators at this year’s "Battle at the Brickyard."  Winners of the Briggs Junior and Senior Animal, Unrestricted Animal, Light World Formula and Heavy World Formula will be taking home a 2000 watt inverter generator valued at $799.  “The USAC Battle at the Brickyard is a special race for us, this year marking an 81 year history of Briggs and Stratton first powering scaled midgets at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway," stated David Klaus, Director- Briggs & Stratton Racing.  “This history continues in July and we are incredibly thankful to USAC for supporting the .25 community and to our families who have a choice in what they race.” 
            "This program is about helping families with some of their many needs when they go racing, in this case, dependable, portable power."  To be eligible racers must run Briggs & Stratton decals on the nose and outside body panel of their quarter midgets.  Approved decals are available from the Briggs and Stratton Racing division who will be on hand to answer questions and take in some great racing!

            USA Today Writer Jeff Gluck does a series of 12 questions each week with a NASCAR driver. See the one he did with Justin Allgaier (former QuarterMidget driver) this week. It's so important that our alumni mention where they started so that we can continue to grow QuarterMidget Racing. Follow Jeff Gluck on Twitter @JeffGluck.   (read it here) 
            Going to USAC event at South Mountain Park in Arizona. You can stay at the facility now during the race event with your RV or MotorHome. It's important that you understand there is NO coming and going into the park from 7 pm to 5 am. You CANNOT enter the park after 7 pm. Special thanks to the Spencer Clark Driven Foundation  for sponsoring the overtime ranger fees which made this possible. 
             Cost for motorhome parking will be $40 and trailer parking will be $50 for a reserved spot.   Shuttle service will be provided throughout the weekend to transport families to and from the overflow lot to the track.  All pickups, SUV's and similar tow vehicles must be detached from trailers at the track and parked in the overflow lot. (read more)
