Prather Racing Scores Triple Wins at Mid-America

PACIFIC JUNCTION, Iowa (August 2, 2007) – Prather Racing kept rolling July 29 at Mid-America Motorplex, scoring a trio of wins at the SCCA Club Racing MVRG National race.

Kent Prather got back on track after a couple of disappointing races to take his third G Production National win of 2007 in the Prather Racing/Moss Motors MGA. Kent started third on the grid after a damp qualifying session and quickly moved to the lead, past defending National Champion Chuck Mathis in a VW. Kent and Chuck traded the lead twice before Chuck found a surprise mud bog kicked up from a Spec Racer and slid off course.

Kent continued on, bettering his old lap record by 0.6-second, en route to the win.

Starting right behind the G Production battle were a trio of Prather Racing-prepared F Production cars, with Andy Hauck and Bob Bramlage having a good battle in their Miatas. Bob led early, but Andy made the pass for the lead mid-race and was able to slowly work up to a five-second lead in the end. Ron Davis finished third in his Prather Racing MGB.

It was Hauck’s second win on the day, as he also scored a dominating GT-2 win in his Porsche.

With two races remaining in SCCA Club Racing competition, Prather Racing-prepared cars now hold the top four positions in F Production points ( Eric Prill , Jesse Prather , Bob Bramlage and Andy Hauck) with eight wins in nine races.

Kent Prather is now second in G Production points with his three wins, moving out of a tie with Mathis.

The final SCCA National Club race for Prather Racing will be Aug. 18-19 at Heartland Park Topeka on the new course configuration that will be used for this year’s Runoffs.
