USAC Indiana Midget Week Results From Bloomington Speedway
Results for USAC Indiana Midget Week at Bloomington Speedway, June 8, 2024.
Although we’re merely a week into it at this point, Daison Pursley has seemingly declared June as his breakout month.
He made that declaration with his right foot and the steering wheel once again in a victorious performance during round three of USAC Indiana Midget Week on Friday night at Bloomington Speedway.
Less than a week after collecting his first career USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car points-paying victory at Iowa’s Knoxville Raceway on the first day of June, the Locust Grove, Okla. racer added his first career USAC Indiana Midget Week feature triumph to his accomplishments on Bloomington’s 1/4-mile red clay aboard his CB Industries/PristineAuction.com – NOS Energy Drink – TRD/Spike/Speedway Toyota.
In the span of four June starts under the USAC national banner, Pursley has yet to finish off the podium. Now, he’s surged to the top of both the USAC Indiana Midget Week standings with two events remaining as well as the season-long USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship points.
“This car is unbelievable to drive right now,” Pursley complimented. “It makes my job so much easier. I have all the confidence in the world to start wherever I want to start in the feature, and I know we’re going to have a car capable of winning.”
This time around, Pursley started seventh on the grid. However, he wasted no time getting to work. By lap one, he was fifth and by lap two, he was third behind only pole starter Justin Grant and third-starting Jacob Denney.
“I got the bottom rolling pretty good the first handful of laps, then was able to sneak by Logan (Seavey) for fourth,” Pursley replayed. “I wanted to get by him so I could control whether I wanted to go to the top or not because Logan runs the top very, very hard. Once I got by him, I knew it was going to be okay and we were able to mind our Ps and Qs there and run a good, solid race.”
