Currently Ian Madsen is the guy to beat at Huset's Speedway. He won the last two races of 2013, then came in and won the 2014 season opener making it three straight victories at the track.

I talked with him and he says, 'It just goes to show what a great team I have behind me. They've put in a lot of hard work and it shows.' His crew chief is a guy that knows the business of making an outlaw sprint car perform, and that's Leonard Lee.

Ian comes from a family that has a big background in racing. He tells us, 'My father was a late model racer and my brother is a very accomplished racer.'

Madsen and his team are running a busy schedule in 2014. He says, 'We've got a 70 race schedule this year including full time at Knoxville where we're in a tight point battle with Terry McCarl.'

In this video he reflects on racing at Huset's. He also talks about friends and family watching from back home in Australia:
