MOWA 410 Winged Sprints Headline
Full Friday Night Program in Central Illinois
Sprint Cars Return to Lincoln Speedway for May 30
Showdown
[May 29, 2025]
Lincoln, IL – Open-wheel excitement takes center stage this
Friday, May 30 at Lincoln Speedway, as the Morrow Brothers Ford MOWA
Sprint Cars roar back to the ¼-mile bullring for the first of two
scheduled visits in 2025. The event will mark just the second race
of the season for the MOWA series, which has battled multiple early
season rainouts.
Fresh off a thrilling last-lap victory at Jacksonville Speedway on
May 9, Will Armitage, of Athens, IL, leads the MOWA Sprint Car
standings into Lincoln. Armitage’s dramatic pass in the season
opener gave him the early points lead over a competitive field that
included Max Guilford, Zach Daum, Brayton Lynch, and Korey Weyant,
who rounded out the top five.
Joining the Sprint Cars will be a full card of action-packed
divisions:
- DIRTcar Pro Late Models
- DIRTcar Modifieds
- MARA Midgets
- Crown Vics
In the DIRTcar Modifieds, many-time Lincoln Speedway champion Brian
Lynn of Mason City, IL leads the standings by just 10 points over
his son, Austin Lynn, who is fresh off his first win of the season.
The Pro Late Model division has belonged to Dakota Ewing, who has
won both features so far in 2025. Lincoln’s own Ryan Miller sits
second in points with Braden Johnson close behind in third.
Another Lincoln standout, Aidan Crowell, tops the Crown Vic
standings after picking up his first-ever win at the track on May
16. Justin Miller and Ken Johnson are close behind in what is
shaping up to be a competitive season.
