Newmanstown, PA - On Saturday night at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway, it was deja-vu all over again for Alex Bright, as he captured the season opener for the USAC Eastern Regional Midgets Presented by ARDC.
The scheduled lidlifter for the touring Midget series was supposed to occur on Friday night at Linda's Speedway, but that event was rained out so the 78th season of the American Racing Drivers Club, now in partnership with USAC, kicked off at Clyde Martin's MJF Trucking No Wing Spring Fling on Saturday. And "the Phenom", Alex Bright, continued his winning ways on the banked oval.

Newmanstown, PA - When race drivers travel halfway across the country, then have to sit around as the first two events of a four race series get washed out, well, they're going to be (understandably) quite anxious to strap in to their methanol snorting mounts and mash the throttle.
That was certainly the case on Tuesday, August 16, at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway, as the stars of the USAC National Midget Championship series presented a memorable show in their first-ever appearance at the Newmanstown, Pa. oval.
Newmanstown, PA - Rain on July 30 forced the postponement of arguably the biggest race of the year for weekly competitors at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway. With no racing scheduled for August 6, drivers had to eagerly wait out the extra week before they could strap into their mounts for the prestigious Clyde Martin Memorial Race, presented by Gold Rush Trailer Sales, which was finally spun off on a sultry, sweaty Saturday night, August 13.

Newmanstown, PA - Just call Alex Bright "a phenomenal clean-up guy."
The Phenom brought out his victory broom on Saturday night, sweeping both of this year's stand-alone ARDC Midget events at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway. Bright captured the ARDC season opener on April 2nd at Clyde Martin, then added Saturday's Star Spangled Havoc to his racing resume`.

Newmanstown, PA - It's no secret that all race drivers want to win, especially those who are considered to be among the best at what they do. For some, the thirst for victory is almost unquenchable, unless they are the first to cross the finish line. In the case of Middletown, DE's Cameron Bellinger, the desire to win that burns in his belly is so hot, it sometimes robs him of a top finish because he is trying so hard to get to the head of the pack.
Newmanstown, PA - It's been so long that Shaun Brandel couldn't even remember how many years had passed since he stood in victory lane at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway.
Newmanstown, PA - Kyle Spence was a busy young man at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway on Saturday. But he certainly made the most of his time, winning twice and finishing third in the three main events in which he competed on a very warm and muggy night in Newmanstown, Pa.
