MITCH BROWN WINS AT UNFAMILAR INDIANA OVAL
Sunday - August - 2015
With a bit of break in Ohsweken Speedway’s schedule following the Northern Summer Nationals and Six Nations Showdown of July 27th-28th, Mitch Brown had a choice of taking in a Patriot Sprint Tour race at Ransomville Speedway just west of Buffalo or tour a little further south for a couple of NRA Sprint Invader events in Ohio and Indiana.
He chose the latter and scored his first career feature race south of the border winning Saturday night’s race at Montpelier, Indiana winning the NRA Sprint Invaders versus Sprints on Dirt A-Main at Montpelier Motor Speedway.
The Brantford competitor used his outside front row starting position to power to the lead in the 25-lap race by outdueling pole setter Kyle Sauder of Archbold, OH after the two had raced side by side though the opening lap.
Brown took command early on and stretched his lead over Sauder with Hud Horton 3rd and Tyler Moore 4th as Phil Gressman, Jared Horstman and Tim Allison were all dicing for 5th.
A caution at the end of lap 10 while Mitch was about to start lapping some back markers did little to suppress his strong run around the 1/4-mile oval and he won convincingly with Ohio drivers Hub Horton, Devin Dobie, Shawn Dancer and Sauder all under a blanket behind him.
Mitch had earlier finished second in his qualifier on a track he had never seen until Saturday night.
A night earlier at Limaland, Motorsports Speedway Mitch won his heat in a two car see-saw battle with Tim Allison of Cridersville, OH and then settled for a satisfying 5th-place finish in the A-Main
Mitch Brown returns to Ohsweken Speedway this coming Friday, August 7th for the Corr/Pak Sprints vs Empire Super Sprints contest then on to Brighton Speedway Saturday and Humberstone Speedway Sunday for events 7 and 8 on the Southern Ontario Sprints calendar.
