CORNING, IA (July 2, 2011) - Chad Simpson earned the pole position in
Saturday night's Lucas Cattle Company A Feature and never looked back. After

also the winner of this event in 2010. Adams County Speedway in Corning,
Iowa packed the stands with fans and the pits with over 120 cars in 5
classes. Simpson took advantage of the well prepared track and cruised into
the AAA Missouri Victory Lane.
Chad Simpson of Mt. Vernon, Iowa drives a MasterSbilt with Pro Power under
the hood. The green and black #25 is owned by Brinkman Motorsports and
supported by Liebe Trucking, GATR Volvo GMC and Five Star Shop Service.
