Brown Best of the ASCS Midwest at I-80 Speedway

Lonnie Wheatley, GREENWOOD, Neb. (July 2, 2009) – Brian Brown picked off his first American Sprint Car Series feature win of the year by topping Thursday night's 25-lap ASCS Midwest Region feature event at Nebraska Raceway Park's I-80 Speedway.

Riding the top side of the track, Brown raced around early pacesetter Doug Lovegrove on the fifth round and then denied a late Jack Dover bid to snare his 11th career ASCS Midwest win in the Super Clean No. 21 Maxim.

Dover slid past Brown in turns three and four on the 17th round only to hand the lead back over to Brown when he jumped the turn two cushion a half lap later. Following a caution that set up a five-lap dash to the checkered flag, Brown slipped away to a half straightaway advantage over Dover, with Jonathan Cornell, Lovegrove and Don Droud, Jr., rounding out the top five.

Chad Humston raced from 18th to sixth, with Jason Danley, Mike Boston, Robby Wolfgang and Trevor Grossenbacher completing the top ten.

Brown, Lovegrove and Cornell topped heat race action for the 29-car field, with Humston winning the "B" Main.
