KNOXVILLE, Iowa — Beilman Motorsports will team with driver Brady Bacon for two of Iowa’s premier sprint car events in August, the Knoxville 360 Nationals August 6-8 and the Front Row Challenge at Southern Iowa Speedway on August 10.
The versatile driver heads to Knoxville Raceway as the winningest non-winged driver at the track, where he boasts six career wins including a triumph at the famed half-mile back on May 30th during the Cornbelt Nationals.
The Broken Arrow, Okla., driver brings extensive experience at Knoxville Raceway where he earned his sixth USAC National Sprint Car Series victory on May 30 making him the winningest driver in series history at the track.
“I am very excited to team up with Kyle Beilman and Jimmy May for the Knoxville 360 Nationals and the Front Row Challenge,” Brady Bacon said. “I have had the opportunity to work with Kyle through Jimmy and JFM in the past and we have had a lot of success. Kyle has strong equipment and I am looking forward to seeing what we can accomplish with the Dave.Com/Smart Machine Tool/Inland Rigging No. 31”
Bacon is no stranger to this event, and his efforts are highlighted by a third-place finish in 2012.
Following the conclusion of the 360 Nationals, Bacon and Beilman Motorsports will shift their attention to 410 competition, where Bacon will also pilot the car at the famed Front Row Challenge at Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, Iowa.
“Brady’s experience and versatility make him a great fit for these two events,” team owner Kyle Beilman said. “He knows how to adapt quickly, communicate what he needs from the car and execute on the national stage. We’re excited to have him in the No. 31 and believe he’ll put us in contention throughout the week.”
