October 6, 2024 - - - Allan Middendorf Racing ventured to one of the most pristine dirt tracks in America - Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri - from October 3-5 for the annual running of the ‘MLRA Fall Nationals.’ The Lucas Oil MLRA Series presided over the dirt-slinging action at the “Diamond of Dirt Tracks” and the tripleheader weekend started with a pair of $5,000 to win preliminary programs. On Thursday night in the opener, Allan Middendorf placed eighth in his heat race and seventh in his B-Main.
With another $5,000 payday up for grabs on Friday evening, Allan wound up eighth in his heat race and was unfortunately not able to make the start in his B-Main. At Wheatland on Saturday with a $10,000 paycheck on the line, Allan finished sixth in his loaded heat race before dropping to eleventh in his consolation event. While the Columbia, Illinois ace was unable to crack the starting grid for the trio of features at Lucas Oil Speedway, he gained valuable experience racing against some of the best talent in the Midwest.
