Quincy, MI - Great Lakes Super Sprints presented by Engine Pro & ARP rolled into Butler Motor Speedway for their first appearance of the 2023 season with 24 cars. Let's just say, the grand stands were packed! Many fans were standing due to all of the stands being full! It defiantly was a thrilling event of high speed racing as the the pits were full of winged sprint cars including GLSS 360 sprint cars and Butler 410 winged sprint cars. To start this right, we would like to say thank you to all the drivers, fans, sponsors, and staff members who came out to the race and supported us.
Phil Gressman (Fremont, OH) started in 1st place and after many cautions, he was able to hold his lead the whole Feature Race! On Gressman's tail the whole race was Danny Sams II (North Port, FL ) and Tylar Rankin (Coldwater, MI). Sams and Rankin never laid off of Gressman's tail until Rankin spun out creating a huge dust cloud which then called for a caution. In the final laps, Max Stambaugh (Elida, OH) was able to charge past Sams and come up close on Gressman's tail. Gressman was able to hold on and take home his second win of the weekend!
Stambaugh wins Fast Qualifier with a time of 14.106 presented by Ti-22 Performance. Reece Saldana (Pittsboro, IN) took home tonight's Hard Charger presented by Hoosier Racing Tire!
Jett Mann (Goshen, IN) wins the Engler Machine and Tool Heat Race 1. Gressman wins the Beacon and Bridge Market Heat Race 2.
Rankin took home Heat Race 3 presented by Engine Pro!
