September 7, 2023 – Holly, Michigan – The Must See Racing Sprint Series Presented by Engine Pro is preparing for its 2023 season finale at Plymouth Motor Speedway September 16. It will be the first-time winged pavement sprint cars have graced the three-eighths mile, semi-banked track in over 13 years.
Due to the length of absence of winged pavement sprint cars at the track, a huge crowd is expected. Dirt has covered the asphalt facility for twelve years but was removed prior to last season. Jimmy McCune won the last winged asphalt event at the track on September 9, 2011.
The 2023 MSR championship will be decided at this event. Currently Jason Blonde has a 15-point lead over defending champion Charlie Schultz. If Blonde can hold onto his points lead, it would be his first career MSR championship in an already storied career.
Hometown hero Tyler Roahrig leads an early field of entrants that already includes Teddy Alberts, Brady Allum, Jeff Bloom, Rick Holley, Joe Liguori, Kevin Mingus, Tommy Nichols, Quintin Saayman, Joe Speakman, and many more.
Davey Hamilton Jr., who is enjoying a two-race MSR win streak, had originally planned to sit this event out to prepare for the upcoming Pink Lady Classic in Meridian, Idaho is now confirmed. Team owner Kirk Morgan revealed the temptation to continue the current win streak was enticing. “It would be nice to continue the streak and it will be good to race against tougher competition one more time before the Pink Lady Classic” explained Morgan. “This will help us prepare for that race and we’re on our way out there anyway. Thats what ultimately changed our decision”.
