— The 2023 USAC Silver Crown calendar begins with a half-mile dirt track, and that’s right where Brady Bacon feels at home. Bacon will compete in all four dirt half-mile races on the USAC Silver Crown trail this coming season aboard Chris Dyson Racing’s No. “It’s one of the nicest, if not the nicest, dirt Silver Crown cars there is right now,” Bacon said. In fact, Bacon has won 16 USAC National Sprint Car features on half-mile dirt tracks, tied for sixth all-time. Additionally, each of his two career USAC Silver Crown victories have come on dirt half-miles, both coming in 2019 at Pennsylvania’s Williams Grove Speedway and Ohio’s Eldora Speedway. “On the half-miles, it feels more like running a sprint car,” Bacon explained.
