NickHolt Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Arizona Speedway Welcomes ASCS Southwest For the McSpadden Classic TULSA, Okla. (September 6, 2016) A name that is synonymous with Sprint Car racing across the southwestern United States is Lealand McSpadden. While "The Tempe Tornado" may have started in Super Modifieds, the bulk of the New Mexico born racer's success came behind the wheel of Sprint Cars and Midgets. A career that spanned over 26 years, McSpadden topped some of racing's biggest events, including the 1991 Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals as well as the Western World in 1978, 1993, and 1995. For all that he has done in Motorsports, Lealand will be honored this weekend at the Arizona Speedway in Queen Creek Ariz. with the inaugural McSpadden Classic on Saturday, September 10. Bringing the Carlyle Tools ASCS Southwest Region in for the night's headliner, the evening's championship A-Feature will boast a $2,000 winner's check to go along with Lap Sponsors at $25 per lap with the leader getting $15 and second receiving $10 per lap.
