For the second time in its history, the USAC Silver Crown Series presented by K&N Engineering will tackle the 1.5-mile Homestead-Miami Speedway, with a 67-lap, 100-mile race scheduled for this Friday.

Led by defending series champion Bud Kaeding and reigning race winner and series runner-up in points Brian Tyler, the ever-growing series expects to add to its legacy after putting on a successful show in 2006. Four drivers took turns at the lead, exchanging the point on six occasions, with Tyler holding off Aaron Pierce over the last five laps.

Pierce, third in points last season and currently seventh after the series opener at the dirt Manzanita Speedway in Phoenix, Ariz., will try his luck again with Tyler on Friday. The former native of Muncie, Ind., who now resides in Phoenix, set the qualifying speed record at HMS of 175.012 mph.

Running in conjunction with the Indy Racing League IndyCar Series, several of those owners have also given the Silver Crown Series a glimpse for their driver development programs.
