Gerster Sweeps Birch Run Must See Practice

By admin July 5, 2019 Birch Run Speedway, Must See Racing Sprint Car Series

BIRCH RUN, Mich. – Brian Gerster hasn’t raced with the Must See Racing Sprint Car Series presented by Engine Pro since last season, but he quickly proved Friday that he hasn’t lost his touch.

Gerster swept practice for the Firecracker Night of Speed at Birch Run Speedway by leading both sprint car sessions, posting a fast lap of 13.711 seconds (105.025 mph) with the No. 50m RAM Engineering mount for Dick Myers Racing around the four-tenths-mile oval.

The two-time series champion is the defending Birch Run winner and seeking his first win of the year.

Home-state driver Jason Blonde was second-quick in the Tony Nosa-owned No. 42 at 13.779 seconds (104.507 mph), followed by four-time defending champion Jimmy McCune in third (13.796/104.378).

Troy DeCaire and Canadian Ryan Litt completed the Fast Five, ahead of Anthony McCune, Joe Liguori, Ike Beasley, Kevin Feeney, and Charlie Schultz.

Three drivers – Beasley, rookie Jacob Dolinar, and Joey Irwin – only ran the first round of practice on Friday afternoon.

Qualifying for the Must See Racing sprint cars is set for just after 7 p.m. ET.
