Inside Line Promotions – OWASSO, Okla. (May 23, 2016) – Tony Bruce Jr. will return to action this weekend with the GoMuddy.com National Sprint League 360 NCRA/NSL Region, which is hosting a doubleheader in Kansas.
Bruce Jr. will pilot a sprint car for Danny King on Friday at Salina Speedway in Salina and Saturday at 81 Speedway in Park City.
“I enjoy the fact that there’s a lot less pressure now,” Bruce Jr. said. “It’s more about going out and having fun.”
Bruce Jr., who registered his first top five of the season in his most recent race, has a strong track record at both facilities. He has garnered a top-seven finish each of the past three seasons at Salina Speedway, including sixth-place results the last two years.
“It’s relatively flat so it’s definitely a tricky race track to get around,” he said. “The straightaways are really long and the corners are really tight.”
Bruce Jr. picked up results of eighth and 11th, respectively, earlier this season at 81 Speedway, where he won last year and has garnered four top-10 finishes in six races since 2014. He also hasn’t finished outside the top 12 in any main event at 81 Speedway during the past four seasons.
“We’ve always had pretty good success there and I’ve won some races before,” he said. “I’m always looking forward to going back there. I felt like we had a decent car and some decent runs in March the last time we were there. Plus, I always look forward to racing close to home.”
