Bailey Goldesberry)2020 was a trying year for
many race teams. With constantly changing schedules, and a level of
uncertainty surrounding nearly every event, teams were forced to
look beyond their usual stomping grounds to simply find races.

teams. Forced to look north to the IRA 410 Sprint Car series amidst
a sporadic MOWA schedule and limited 360/305 races in her regular
area of Central and Southern Illinois, the Springfield driver felt
ready to make the move to a 410 sprint car, and the team saw a
respectable debut four races with the ultra-competitive IRA series

was already one of the strongest rookie programs in all of short
track racing has got even sweeter. IRA is proud to announce that
both Sage Fruit and Hepfner Race Products (HRP) are back onboard,
and IRA truly and sincerely appreciates their loyalty and support.
Sage Fruit and HRP have teamed up to again provide a "pear" of
rookie awards. The Sage Fruit / HRP Big Apple Rookie of the Year
Award, and The Sage Fruit / HRP Apple Cup Rookie Award will both be
presented again in 2021. Sean Rayhall was the Big Apple recipient,
while 2019 Badger Midget series runner-up Jack Rouston claimed the
Apple Cup in 2020. Rayhall, an established and winning road racer
turned sprint car driver, has graciously reached out to one of his
sponsors to insure the Big Apple winner will be safe and good
looking for years to come. So the 2021 Bumper To Bumper IRA Outlaw
Sprints Sage Fruit / HRP Big Apple Rookie of the Year will go home
with a trio of tasty treats, beginning with $2500 in addition to
point fund earnings and contingencies, plus a HRP top & nose wing
combo, and now there is a "cherry" on top as the lucky recipient
will also receive a custom driving suit from HRX USA (Bespoke
Italian Racewear Manufacture). The Sage Fruit / HRP Apple Cup Rookie
Award will pay a "sweet" $1250 plus a HRP nose wing. The Bumper To
Bumper IRA Outlaw Sprints are proud to offer these great programs to
new teams who must participate in atleast 80% of schedule. Eligible
drivers must "not have" competed in more than 8 completed series
events in any single prior year. Special thanks to Washington

Crash Pad)DON’T SQUEEZE THE CHARMIN was a
popular catch phrase for toilet paper TV commercials. But when it
comes to your Crash Pad seat insert, you WANT to squeeze it as part
of your off-season maintenance and inspections. First, wash your
Shock Absorbing Material (SAM) - no high pressure, and keep it on a
flat surface when saturated - to make sure the cell paths are free
and clear of dirt, muck, and debris. Only air should be in the cell
paths - that is how your Crash Pad Reduces Your Risk of Spinal
Injury. After it dries, examine the SAM for severe surface abrasion
or tears. Then, squeeze the SAM and observe its response. If it
‘recovers’ slowly, you’re good to go! If you need to replace any SAM
panels or upholstery, shop at
www.crashpadus.com. Problems or questions, contact Denny at
717-235-7250. Love your Crash Pad and it will love your back! 1/16
