Versatile Grant Wins 2017 Mike Curb Super License

Justin Grant’s consistent performances in all three of USAC’s national divisions has earned him the coveted Mike Curb Super License for 2017 for which he will be awarded at the December 8 “Night of Champions” at the Indiana Roof Ballroom in Indianapolis.

Grant’s total accumulation of 4070 points in USAC’s Silver Crown, AMSOIL National Sprint Car and National Midget series outdistanced Tyler Courtney’s 3601 on his way to the $5000 award and a “Super License” to compete with USAC during the 2018 season.

Grant was the only driver to make a start in all 70 USAC National points races in 2017 (10 Silver Crown, 37 Sprint & 23 Midget). He also became the first driver since Tracy Hines in 2011 to finish in the top-five of the point standings in all three series during a single year (4th in Silver Crown, 2nd in AMSOIL National Sprint & 5th in National Midget). Grant, along with Courtney, were the lone two to win feature events in all three divisions in 2017.

Ione, California’s Grant became the first driver in the history of USAC to record season-opening victories in both a National Sprint Car and National Midget in the same season. He captured the first of his four National Sprint Car wins on night one of “Winter Dirt Games” at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla. before reeling off three more at Plymouth (Ind.) Speedway, Ohio’s Eldora Speedway and Iowa’s Knoxville Raceway.

He won twice in a midget, indoors at the Southern Illinois Center in Du Quoin and a thrilling last lap, last corner victory at Susquehanna Speedway during “Pennsylvania Midget Week.” In August, he broke through for his first career Silver Crown win in the “Bettenhausen 100” at the Illinois State Fairgrounds’ mile in Springfield.

Please join Spencer and the rest of USAC’s 2017 champions at the Indiana Roof Ballroom as the United States Auto Club celebrates its best at the 62nd Annual USAC Night of Champions at the Indiana Roof Ballroom in downtown Indy on Friday night, December 8, 2017.

Each of USAC’s champions and special award winners will be honored in the ceremony that will take place on PRI weekend at the beautiful facility located atop the Indiana Repertory Theater at 140 W. Washington St. in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Cocktails are set to begin at 6pm with dinner and the awards ceremony scheduled to begin at 6:30pm.

Tickets are $65 each and must be reserved by Friday, December 1st. To reserve your seat, please contact Nikki Klepper at nikki@usacracing.com or by phone at (317) 247-5151 Ext. 103.
