Rain Postpones USAC’s Chad McDaniel Memorial

CONCORDIA, Kan. – Overnight storms and saturated grounds have forced the postponement of Wednesday night’s scheduled NOS Energy Drink USAC National Midget Series event at the Concordia High Banks.

The 10th annual Chad McDaniel Memorial will now be held Thursday night, July 11, marking the series debut at the quarter-mile dirt oval in Kansas.

Thursday at Concordia, the NOW 600 Open Class micro sprints are also in action.

The drivers meeting takes place at 6:15 p.m. CT, followed by engine heat at 6:45 p.m. and hot laps at 7 p.m. Adult general admission tickets are $25 for fans age 13 and older, while those 12 and under are free. Pit passes are $30 for all ages.

Past winners of the Chad McDaniel Memorial include Brad Kuhn (2010), Scott Hatton (2012), Christopher Bell (2013, 2017), Bryan Clauson (2014, 2016) and Kevin Thomas Jr. (2015, 2018).

Logan Seavey won the Mid-America Midget Week opener Tuesday at Red Dirt Raceway for his second series victory of the year.
