Chris Brown Back in USMTS Victory Lane
Spring, Texas (07/01/14) – For the first time in several weeks Chris Brown was behind the wheel of his #21 Brown Motorsports/LG21 Open Wheel Modified as he took part in a busy weekend with the United States Modified Touring Series (USMTS), and he made the most of the opportunity with his third win of 2014.
After seeing the first two scheduled events of the weekend washed away by Mother Nature, action finally kicked off on Thursday evening at Grayson County Speedway (Bells, Texas). A strong field of 40 entries registered for the $2,000-to-win program at the 1/4 mile dirt oval. A second place finish in his heat race earned Chris a spot in the evening's redraw where he received the fifth starting position on the grid for the 40 lap finale. When the race went green Brown quickly found his way to the front and drove underneath Kelly Shryock for the top spot on the fifth lap and never looked back. Brown showed the way out front, holding off Stormy Scott and Rodney Sanders through a pair of caution flags to claim his third victory of the season. Chris was followed across the finish line by Scott and Sanders, while Clyde Dunn Jr., and Kelly Shryock rounded out the top five.
Chris resumed action with the USMTS Open Wheel Modifieds on Friday evening as he traveled to Superbowl Speedway (Greenville, Speedway). A stellar field of forty-four Open Wheel Modifieds took to the oval, and Brown began his night by finishing fourth in his heat race, which left him just short of locking into the feature. As a result he would have to run a b-main, where a fourth place finish would earn him the 20th starting spot on the grid for the 40 lap finale. In the main event Chris advanced twelve positions to an eighth place finish.
Saturday evening found the team competing in a $2,000-to-win program at Southern Oklahoma Speedway (Ardmore, Oklahoma). With forty-two entries in the pit area Chris finished second in his heat race from the fifth position to earn a spot in the redraw, where he was the recipient of the fourth starting spot. In the 40 lap main event Brown settled to a tenth place finish in the final rundown.
"Between building cars for customers and my family business I haven't had much time to race here lately, but we definitely made the most of the opportunity this weekend," said Brown. "I have to thank my crew, sponsors, and family for their support."
Full results from the weekend are available at www.USMTS.com .
The upcoming holiday weekend will tentatively see Chris returning to the driver's seat of his #21 Club 29 Super Late Model for the Freedom Classic at Salina Highbanks Speedway (Salina, Oklahoma), which will be sanctioned by the Lucas Oil Midwest Late Model Racing Association (MLRA). Friday's program posts a $3,000 top prize will Saturday will reward the winner of the event with a $5,000 check. For more information on the event, please visit www.MLRARacing.com .
