PERU, IN.- Over 90 micro sprints came to race on Saturday night, as the Miami County Speedway hosted the Nonwing Class Special. The Nonwingers were racing for double the Champion points and an extra payout to the feature winner.

Farmland racer No. 33z Zeke Lewis raced his Nonwing to the feature win. After the big win, Lewis said, "It was awesome. This is our first feature win, and it's unbelievable." North Manchester native Jordan Lambert came in second place, while third went to Andrew Peters.

The wing class had the Front Row Challenge on Saturday night. Logan Jarrett and Kris Knox both declined the challenge, raising the pot to $240.00 for the Nonwing racers to think about next Saturday, July 25th.

No. 2 Todd Kirkman (Kokomo, IN.) drove to victory, winning the Wing Class feature. "It felt great to win, especially coming from 11th place," said Kirkman. No. 92 Kris Knox took second place honors, while third belonged to Mentone racer Sam Kimmel.

Camden's Dax Kendall came away with the Restrictor Class finale win. After the victory, Kendall said, "It felt good to win tonight. I want to thank Uncle Gary for building it." Following Kendall in second was the No. 68G Restrictor of Tyler Gunn, while Braiden Black took a third place showing.

The No. 9p Parker Price-Miller (Kokomo, IN.) raced his way to another impressive Junior Class feature crown. After the win, Price-Miller said, "It felt really good to win. The car felt really good. We tightened up the car, so it could run the middle." Taking a second place finish was the always tough No.11K of Kaleb Kinsler (Delphi, IN.). Finishing third was the No. 12F Junior of Hallie Feuquay.

The fifth and final feature of the night was the Slingshot Class. The No. 86 Slingshot, driven by Warsaw's David Rapp beat No. 119 Larry Willams. After the win, Rapp said, "It was relieving to win tonight. This is my first feature win in slingshots."

Next up for the MCS racers will be the 2nd annual Kendallville Klassic on Tuesday, July 21st at the Noble County Fairgrounds.
