(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 4, 2024 – Following a stilted start to the 2024 season due to rain and illness, Randy Post returned to action by making his first trek to historic Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wis. for an Akright Auto Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car event on Sunday, June 2.
Post, who sat out the rain-shortened Plymouth Dirt Track Racing-MSA event at The Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday, May 18 due to illness, turned in a qualifying time of 16.120 seconds in his first official laps on the venerable third-mile clay oval.
After starting seventh in the second eight-lap MSA heat race, the third-year Sprint Car competitor finished eighth.
After rolling off from the 22nd starting spot in the 25-lap A-main, Post drove a smooth and consistent race on a fast and rutted track surface, while preserving through four cautions and one red flag to advance six spots en route to a 16th place finish in his second MSA main event of the 2024 season.
“It was the first time for me racing a Sprint Car outside of Plymouth,” Post said. “The track was definitely different. I had never seen a track that rough. However, I can understand why a majority of people claim it to be the best track in the state. It was a lot of fun to drive and experience racing at a different track.
“As far as comparison to Plymouth, we used our Plymouth starting baseline all night with one or two adjustments,” he said. “As a driver, it taught me how to be on the gas most of the race, while using the brakes to turn. Our goal for last night was to go down there with an open mind and soak in all the information other teams would help us with. It was a huge learning experience for us and I would say we achieved our goal of going down there and having fun.”
The Randy Post Racing Team is scheduled to return to Akright Auto PDTR-MSA 360 Sprint Car action for the fourth annual Road America Challenge at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, June 8, along with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate 410 Sprint Car Series and PDTR Grand Nationals.
Spectator gates will open at 4:30 p.m. with on-track action scheduled to start at 5:30 p.m.
