Coons Jr. And Rodriguez Lead Midgets to Copper World Classic


From WhoWon.com:

INDIANAPOLIS -- Jerry Coons Jr. and Johnny Rodriguez lead their respective USAC Midget series point standings into Thursdays Copper World Classic at Phoenix (Ariz.) International Raceway. Coons, of Tucson, Ariz., is seeking his second straight National championship, while Rodriguez, of Elk Grove, Calif., is also seeking a second Western title. Thursdays race offers points toward both series championships.

A 25-mile Midget feature is planned on the P.I.R. mile, part of Thursdays open-wheel activity which also includes a 100-mile K & N USAC Silver Crown race.

A stellar field of Midgets is expected for the penultimate race of the 2007 season, which concludes Nov. 22 at Irwindale, Calif. Dave Steele of Tampa, Fla. is the defending champion and will make his first USAC appearance in more than six months.

Steele holds the 1-lap PIR Midget qualifying record of 138.201 mph, set in 2004. Dan Drinan set the 25-mile standard of 128.822 in 1995.
