Two-time USAC National Champion Brady Bacon won the 39-lap feature race at the inaugural Driven2SaveLives BC39 powered by NOS Energy Drink on Sept. 6, 2018 to earn the richest purse in recent Midget racing history. The thrilling race before a packed house came after track crews worked tirelessly to prepare the quarter-mile clay oval track after heavy afternoon rain.
The inaugural event opened Sept. 5 with a dazzling victory by 15-year-old Indiana native Zeb Wise, a protégé of Clauson, under the lights in the Stoops Pursuit race.
Dirt and asphalt racers from around the country competed in the inaugural event at IMS, with an all-time record entry of 118 Midget cars. Competitors included NASCAR stars Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Christopher Bell, popular NTT IndyCar Series driver Conor Daly and eight former USAC Midget national champions.
