Emerson Axsom isn’t new to the USAC national midget scene, but this week at the Driven2SaveLives BC39, he was fresh blood on the Keith Kunz Motorsports team.
While the Driven2SaveLives BC39 is in only its fifth running, the USAC national midget race at The Dirt Track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway has acquired a hefty dose of prestige in its young life.
Thomas Meseraull, Justin Grant, Taylor Reimer, Chase McDermand, Cannon McIntosh and Emerson Axsom are locked into the BC39 finale due to their podium finishes on their preliminary nights.
There are plenty of national midget races Ryan Timms feels he should’ve won this year. While he’s managed to knock out three victories on the USAC National Midget Championship tour, the Oklahoma native remains winless in his Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series campaign with three races to go in the season.
Thomas Meseraull picked up his first USAC national midget victory of the season, runner-up Taylor Reimer earned a career-best series finish and third-place Chase McDermand turned in a strong performance in his No. 40 entry.
Arriving at the Driven2SaveLives BC39 is like going back to square one for Gavin Miller, who is one of nearly 30 drivers who make up the rookie class for the fifth running of the USAC midget series event.
