MOWA SPRINTS HEADLINE "NIGHT BEFORE THE MILE" AT LINCOLN SPEEDWAY

August 15, 2023 (Jacksonville, IL) - Returning from a month-long dormancy, the Morrow Brothers Ford MOWA Sprint Car Series will be in action on Friday, August 18 at Lincoln Speedway. The "Night Before The Mile" event is a fan-favorite that starts a busy weekend of motorsports in Central Illinois. Fans can head to Springfield on Saturday and Sunday to the Historic Springfield Mile at the Illinois State Fairgrounds.

Recapping the series’ last visit to the ¼-mile oval, Chapin, Illinois driver Paul Nienhiser continued his winning ways at the Logan County Fairgrounds, where he scored his fourth-career Lincoln Speedway victory with the MOWA Sprint Car Series, padding his overall career wins total to 24. Nienhiser fought back challenges from Steven Russell and Joe B. Miller who both gained eight positions respectively in their pursuit to knock the #9X from the top of the podium.

San Antonio, Texas’ Preston Perlmutter currently sits atop the series points standings leading into the final stretch of racing with only five events remaining on the 2023 campaign. Perlmutter finished 8th in the last event at Lincoln Speedway.
