Dad Pat and driver Tyler Shullick are very excited after their win in Lt World Formula! Josh Daugherty sits on the bumper of Adam Thomason's car as Adam waits for his chance to run the Disney D Track.
Mopar Executives braved the extreme heat to speak at the Award Ceremonies and voice their pleasure at sponsoring such an event! James and his drivers concluded the event by thanking Mopar Officials and Disney in unison! Check out the video here!  
The Hoosier Semi provided a great backdrop for all of the races at Disney.  Tyler from USAC handled Pit Stewart Duties all weekend and kept the races going.  Kyle and the crew worked their tails off this weekend so racers and their families could prepare their own cars without the added responsibilities of running the program. James runs the radios, communicating with the drivers, 'Cowboy' was again at the Mic with the play by play, Rick Thomason is the Chief Stewart, Denise and Danette take care of Timing and Scoring, and Jeff leads the Tech program. There were flaggers, a Videographer, and more, all in Official Racewear for racers to see.  Last minute adjustments to safety gear from dad (handler) to driver!  Kim Matheny served as Photographer for USAC. | USAC Takes Motor Sports to ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney World in Florida.

If you missed the USAC .25 Mopar Midget Nationals - you missed one of the most coolest events ever! The event was one of the best events held for .25 Midget Racers and their families. The "Disney D" configured Track proved to be very challenging for many of the drivers, but the challenge was exciting for all to watch. Executives from Mopar, Disney and USAC met for 2 hours on Saturday afternoon. "Both Mopar and Disney were very impressed with the entire event," said Kevin Miller, USAC President. "Over 1,000 Volleyball Teams along with 6,000 baseball families walked by our track this week." Everyone of the Winners were awarded with a Traxxis Remote Control vehicle along with a Gold Medal from the ESPN Wide World of Sports and a USAC .25 Competition Medal. Several Media Outlets were on hand to interview drivers and get their perspective of .25 Midget Racing. ESPN Wide World of Sports interviewed over 28 drivers and ran coverage on their giant Jumbo Trons in the park all week. Car and Driver Magazine attended along with the Orlando Sentinel and West Orange Times Weekly. A very special guest attended the closing ceremonies that were held in the ESPN Dome Facility. Mickey Mouse was on stage with the top 3 finishers as was top Mopar Executives for Victory Lane Photographs. In the end, drivers baptized their leader, Mr. Spink! Next Stop for the .25 Racers is their National Event - "Battle of the Brickyard" July 7 - 10 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Special Thanks to Mopar for your sponsorship. Without you, this race would have never happened! Special Thanks to Disney for the wonderful place you provided for our drivers and families to spend a week racing. Thanks for the Water Station and the beautiful park, including the 'dome' for Award Ceremonies. And of course.... thanks for sending Mickey!
