WINGED SPRINT CARS RETURN TO VETERANS MOTORPLEX AT THE RIM IN 2027

October 16, 2026 – Millersville, Tennessee - Pavement Pounders today announced their first of two weekends of 410-winged pavement sprint car racing in 2027. Pavement Pounders will promote the reintroduction of winged pavement sprint car racing at Veterans Motorplex at the Rim in Millersville, Tennessee June 4-5, 2027.

It will be the first time 410-winged pavement sprint cars have run at the racy high-banked quarter mile since August 6, 2021. But this will be the first time 410’s have raced at the track with unrestricted 410 power plants. Bobby Santos III won that last King of the Wing event over five years ago.

An open practice is scheduled for Friday June 4 in conjunction with a regular scheduled program of local racing classes. A complete racing program for the winged sprint cars will be on tap the following evening on Saturday June 5. The “Mid-South 60” will conclude the weekends racing action with a 60-lap feature event. It will be the longest winged sprint car race ever contested in the state of Tennessee.

It will be the final winged pavement sprint car event of the week in the area that already includes at stop by the Race for the Million series at the nearby Nashville Fairgrounds two nights earlier. Veterans Motorplex at the Rim is roughly thirty minutes north of the Nashville Fairgrounds.

A complete event information package and website for the race teams and fans will be announced in the coming weeks.

This will be an invitational event. Teams who would like to be considered for an invitation will be added to a list prior to the event. Registration details of this process will also be announced in the coming weeks. Once the event website is up-and-running, all information pertaining to this event will be made available there. Until then, Pavement Pounders https://facebook.com/PavementPoundrs/ will be the primary source for news and updates.

Veterans Motorplex at the Rim proved to be a very racy quarter mile for winged pavement sprint cars as evidence of that 2021 event. Bobby Santos III won a thriller over Jason Blonde that included sensational racing through heavy lapped traffic. Santos III came from the seventh starting position to take home the checkered flag. In victory lane he commented “It turned out to be really fun. It felt really racy. It wasn’t what I expected. We passed some cars and could really move round. It turned out to be a really fun racetrack.”

It’s unknown at this early time which teams from across the Country and Canada will be a part of the upcoming invitational process. Due to the expected abundance of cars in the area, there won’t be a shortage of available teams. It would be a safe bet that Santos III will be one of the first drivers offered an invitation since he is the defending race champion.

Teams will be looking to lower the all-time track record of California’s Eric Humphries 11.270 seconds set on August 6, 2021.

Stay tuned for additional updates regarding purse, event format, sanctioning body, and other event details in the coming days/weeks.

Race For The Million Expands to Five Events in 2027, Names Racing America Exclusive Broadcast Partner
The world’s richest 410 winged pavement sprint car series returns for its second season
with enhanced coverage and visits to iconic racetracks across the country.

LAGUNA BEACH, Calif. (October 15, 2026) – More races. More tracks. More opportunities to cash in.

Race For The Million (RFTM) is raising the stakes for its sophomore season in 2027, expanding from four races to five while once again offering the richest total payout in the history of 410 winged pavement sprint car racing: over $1 million in combined purse money and championship point fund awards. The series has also named Racing America its exclusive broadcast partner for the 2027 season, bringing the action to fans everywhere via RacingAmerica.TV and the Racing America Media distribution network.

Founded by Richard Fieler, Race For The Million launched in 2026 with a bold mission to bring the best in 410 winged pavement sprint car racing together at premier short tracks across North America while offering unprecedented payouts and a championship worth racing for.

The 2027 schedule adds a fifth stop to the series, with events taking place at some of the country’s most recognizable short tracks:

● April 3: Five Flags Speedway – Pensacola, Florida
● June 3: Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway – Nashville, Tennessee
● July 24: Berlin Raceway and Entertainment Complex – Marne, Michigan
● August 21: Magic Valley Speedway – Twin Falls, Idaho
● August 28: Colorado National Speedway – Dacono, Colorado

“The response from the drivers, teams, tracks and fans exceeded our expectations in 2026, and we’re just getting started!” Fieler said. “We had so much fun that we decided to add another race and bring the excitement to two new venues in Nashville, Tennessee, and Twin Falls, Idaho.

“Our goal from day one has been to create something special and put pavement sprint car racing back in the spotlight. We’re carrying that momentum into 2027 with five races, more opportunities and an even bigger vision for the future. We can’t wait to get back to racing!”
Racing America to Deliver Exclusive Coverage
Race For The Million has partnered with Racing America as the exclusive broadcast home for the 2027 season. The platform brings fans more than 250 live pavement grassroots and road racing events annually, along with on-demand race replays, highlights, interviews and original programming.

Racing America will also help distribute and promote content throughout the year in support of Race For The Million.

“Pavement sprint car racing has been a staple on the Racing America platform for many years, and we are truly excited to help build more awareness for it with our partnership with Race For The Million,” said Colin Smith, president of Racing America Media. “We look forward to continuing to build upon what was an incredibly successful year one of this unique racing series.”
Building on a Breakthrough Inaugural Season
Race For The Million made an immediate impact in 2026, bringing top-level winged pavement sprint car competition to four tracks: Five Flags Speedway, Berlin Raceway, Owosso Speedway and Colorado National Speedway.

Canadian driver Aaron Willison captured the series championship on the strength of podium finishes in all four events, including feature wins at Five Flags and Colorado.

The inaugural season also put huge money on the line at every stop, with feature winners collecting payouts of up to $30,000. The championship point fund added another significant incentive by rewarding consistency throughout the season.

Willison earned $40,000 from the point fund, with runner-up Kody Swanson receiving $37,500 and third-place finisher Bobby Santos III earning $35,000. Drivers finishing fourth through 12th shared an additional $198,500 in year-end awards, with other special payouts distributed.

With a fifth event added to the calendar, Race For The Million aims to give teams another opportunity to compete for major paydays while building on the momentum of its inaugural season.

Chance Grasty 2nd with NARC at Placerville Speedway

PETERSEN MEDIA- Continuing to stay hot as the season winds down, Chance Grasty used a late race surge on Saturday night to net a second-place finish with NARC during the series’ lone visit of the year to Placerville Speedway.

“We went out late in qualifying and didn’t get great laps in,” Chance Grasty said. “Luckily we were able to win our heat race, and get in the Dash which really set us up for a good finish.”

25 cars checked into the famed bullring for NARC’s penultimate night of the season. Going out 17th for qualifying, Grasty timed in ninth fastest in the session which put him on the front row of his heat race.

With the initial start being called back, the second attempt went without issues and it was Grasty getting the jump in the Bushey Financial Services/C&H Motor Parts/Sierra Single Ply Roofing backed No. x1 entry.

Leading from start to finish, the win moved Grasty to the all-important Dash where a third-place finish put him in the second row of the 30-lap feature event.

As the feature event went green, Grasty settled into third as he chased after the lead duo of Colby Copeland and Dylan Bloomfield. On a fast surface, the first 13 laps went interruption free as the leaders raced hard in lapped traffic.

When the action resumed, Grasty continued to flank Bloomfield and Copeland and was waiting in the wings as they began to wage war on each other.

With five laps to go as they continued to battle for the lead, Grasty continued to run his race and was able to get Bloomfield for the second spot.

Closing in on Copeland himself in the final laps, he ultimately came up just short as he closed his night out with a runner up finish.

“We had two really long green flag runs, and it allowed us to spend a lot of time in traffic” Grasty said. “Once I passed for second, I was able to close in on (leader) Colby Copeland but I couldn’t quite get there in limited laps. Overall, it was a great night for everyone involved with our team.”

F&F Racing would like to thank Bushey Financial Services, C&H Motor Parts, Sierra Single Ply Roofing, Triple X Race Co., Wrayvon, CRV Carbon Solutions, Econo Lube ‘N’ Tune, XC Gear, All Pro Heads, Engler, and Don Ott Racing Engines for their support.

Saturday’s “Fall Haul” Pays Big, Decides Sprint Invaders Champion!
by Bill Wright

October 13, 2026 – Extra money and extra stakes are on the line this Saturday, October 13 for the Mohrfeld Solar Sprint Invaders Presented by Turnwater Bar & Grill! The season all comes down to Saturday’s event at the 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa!

Colder temperatures have adjusted Saturday’s schedule, with hot laps scheduled for 5:30 p.m., but the contingencies are definitely hot for the drivers in attendance. In addition to a purse paying $5,000 to win and $400 to start, eleven drivers will receive five gallons of VP fuel at the driver’s meeting, heats will pay $300, $200, $100 and $50, with a $150 Maxim gift certificate to the winners, a Hoosier Right Rear tire to the winner of the Dash, $600 to the feature hard-charger, $500 for a last lap pass for the win, and additional contingencies through the field including a number of mystery spot giveaways.

The championship point race will probably come down to a battle of brothers. Tasker Phillips leads Sawyer Phillips by just 17 points heading into Saturday. The Pleasantville, Iowa siblings have three wins between them with the series this season. Alex Vande Voort and Cody Wehrle also still have outside shots at the title, and are sitting in third and fourth. Dustin Clark, Riley Scott, Jaden Alexander, McCain Richards, Lincoln Martin and Josh Schneiderman round out the top ten.

Ironically, there have been no repeat winners since the “Fall Haul’s” inception in 2018. Seth Bergman (2018), Dylan Westbrook (2020), Terry McCarl (2021), Chase Randall (2022), Zane DeVault (2023), Aaron Reutzel (2024) and JJ Hickle (2025) have all won the big check!

Saturday will be the 85th feature contested in the history of the Mohrfeld Solar Sprint Invaders presented by Turnwater Bar & Grill. Five drivers have five wins there, including Matt Rogerson, Jerrod Hull, Paul Nienhiser, Dustin Selvage and Josh Schneiderman. John Schulz has four wins, and Bobby Mincer, Kaley Gharst, Matt Sutton, Ryan Jamison, Jon Agan and Chris Martin have three.

UNITED WE STAND! SIX SPRINT CAR SERIES JOIN FORCES UNDER GREAT LAKES SPRINTS MANAGEMENT GROUP

October 14, 2026, Merrill, MI

A new era of sprint car racing is taking shape across the Great Lakes region!

Three veteran racing leaders unite to build a stronger future for sprint car racing throughout the Great Lakes region.

Barry Miles Marlow, Aaron Fry and Duane Hancock have joined forces to establish Great Lakes Sprints Management Group, bringing six sprint car racing divisions together under one banner for the 2027 racing season.

Driven by a shared passion for the sport and a commitment to making sprint car racing better, the three partners will combine their experience, relationships and resources. Each holds an equal one-third ownership interest in the management group, which will coordinate scheduling, race operations, marketing, sponsorship development and the overall direction of the six divisions.

Founding partners, left to right: Duane Hancock, Barry Miles Marlow and Aaron Fry.

UNITED BY A COMMON PURPOSE

The foundation of Great Lakes Sprints Management Group is a shared belief: sprint car racing becomes stronger when people work together. The partners bring complementary strengths in organization, logistics, race-day operations, marketing and sponsorships.

“Our goal is simple: to make sprint car racing better,” said Marlow. “Each of us brings different strengths to the table. By combining those strengths and working toward a common goal, we believe we can accomplish far more united than we could individually.”

For drivers and teams, the partnership aims to offer stronger series and more races within a practical travel region. For racetracks, it emphasizes consistent race-day operations, competition management, marketing and livestreaming. Fans gain more opportunities to see great racing, while sponsors gain wider regional reach and a larger combined audience.

“This partnership isn’t about any one individual or any one racing series,” Marlow added. “It’s about taking what each of us does well and building something stronger for everyone who makes this sport possible.”

SIX DIVISIONS. ONE UNITED ORGANIZATION.

Three premier touring series will pursue events across the GLS footprint where logistics, strong car counts and opportunities make sense. Three regional divisions will build schedules around their concentrations of drivers and teams, supporting competitive fields and manageable travel.

Premier touring series

Great Lakes Super Sprints (GLSS)360 cubic-inch winged sprint cars; an established touring series throughout the Great Lakes region.

Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Series (BOSS)410 cubic-inch non-wing sprint cars; the organization’s premier non-wing touring series.

FAST 410 Sprint Car Series410 cubic-inch winged sprint cars; a premier touring series with an established regional tradition.

Regional racing series

Great Lakes Lightning Sprints (GLLS)1,000cc winged lightning sprint cars, with events focused on their regional competitor base.

Outlaw 305s305 cubic-inch winged sprint cars, with opportunities developed around participating teams and suitable venues.

Gladiator Sprint TourRegional sprint car competition with a schedule concentrated where its teams are based.

“After 16 seasons of working independently, it’s refreshing to have Barry and Duane willing to join forces and work together,” said Aaron Fry. “I see all three of my series growing stronger through this united effort. Each of us brings unique strengths and experiences to the table. By combining those strengths, I believe we can create something special that benefits the racetracks, race teams, marketing partners, and race fans throughout the Great Lakes region.”

A STRONG GREAT LAKES REGIONAL FOOTPRINT

Michigan, Ohio and Indiana remain the heart of Great Lakes Sprints. Its broader footprint includes Western Ontario, Western Pennsylvania, Northern West Virginia, Northern Kentucky, Eastern Illinois and Eastern Wisconsin. Each division’s schedule will reflect its competitors and the competitive and logistical needs of that division.

STRENGTHENING NON-WING SPRINT CAR RACING

BOSS will serve as the premier non-wing touring division. To help unify and strengthen non-wing racing, Great Lakes Sprints founder Barry Miles Marlow has decided to place Great Lakes Traditional Sprints (GLTS) on hiatus and temporarily retire the GLTS name.

GLS Management Group also recognizes non-wing teams whose equipment, travel commitments or preferences suit a more concentrated regional schedule. It is exploring the return of the Great Lakes Short Track Challenge to offer additional opportunities closer to those teams’ home regions. Details are still being developed; no schedule has yet been announced.

THREE PARTNERS. ONE SHARED DIRECTION.

Aaron Fry will oversee race operations for BOSS and Gladiator. Duane Hancock will oversee FAST and Outlaw 305s. Barry Miles Marlow will oversee GLSS, GLLS and the GLS.tv media platform. The three will jointly coordinate scheduling, strategy, marketing, sponsorships and overall direction.

“Having the opportunity to unite with this group as one team, sharing the same passion and goals for the betterment of sprint car racing, is something I believe will strengthen the Great Lakes region tremendously,” said Duane Hancock. “We’ve all been chasing the same goals in our own ways for so many years. Bringing our experience, resources, and strengths together under one organization just makes sense. It’s an opportunity to make things better for our teams, racetracks, and marketing partners.”

“I’m looking forward to the new challenges of race-day operations, along with the opportunity to take the Outlaw 305s to new venues. I can’t thank Barry and Aaron enough for welcoming me into this partnership and trusting me to be a valuable part of this united effort. I’m excited about what we can accomplish together.”

LOOKING AHEAD TO 2027

The partners are working together on 2027 schedules, purse structures, marketing programs, sponsorship opportunities and additional features and benefits. As plans are finalized, they will be shared with teams, racetracks, promoters, sponsors and fans throughout the region.

SIX DIVISIONS. THREE PARTNERS. ONE SHARED VISION. UNITED WE STAND!

Petaluma Speedway Adobe Cup welcomes SCCT this Saturday

By Gary Thomas

Petaluma, CA…The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour is primed to sanction the $5,000-to-win “Adobe Cup” at Petaluma Speedway this Saturday October 17th.

The evening of family fun at the 15th annual Adobe Cup marks the final appearance of the season for SCCT at Sonoma County’s longest running entertainment venue. Following this Saturday’s outing the Sprint Car Challenge Tour will have just two events remaining in 2026.

The familiar Petaluma 3/8-mile oval routinely produces thrilling wheel-to-wheel racing, as lapped traffic can create some of the most frenetic competition of any venue on tour.

Please note the facility features an earlier start time as always, with the Pit Meeting at 3:45pm and cars on track around 4pm.

“We look forward to having the Sprint Car Challenge Tour as part of the 15th annual Adobe Cup this weekend,” said Petaluma Promoter Rick Faeth. “Petaluma Speedway doesn’t hold many Winged Sprint Car shows, but the fans have certainly flocked to the track when we have. Hopefully it will be a full house to finish out the season.”

Going into the Adobe Cup it is Justyn Cox who has extended his Elk Grove Ford SCCT point lead after winning last time out in Tulare. It marked the second Sprint Car Challenge Tour triumph of the year for Cox.

Completing the top five behind Cox are Marysville’s Dawson Hammes, third place finisher last race Cole Croft of Colfax, Marysville’s Carson Hammes and SCCT Western Sprint Tour Speedweek champion Colby Copeland from Roseville.

Rounding out the top 10 heading into Petaluma Speedway are Jake Morgan, Seth Standley, Corbin Rueschenberg, Luke Hayes and Landon Brooks.

Multi-time and defending Adobe Cup winner Andy Forsberg will be one of the favorites in the field on Saturday. The two-time SCCT champion was victorious when the tour visited Petaluma Speedway in June.

Another past Adobe Cup winner, Sean Becker of Roseville, is also expected to pilot the Dan Monhoff owned No. 35 machine on Saturday.

HOTLAP 3D JOINS CRSA FAMILY OF MARKETING PARTNERS, TO PRESENT HOT LAPS FOR THIS WEEKEND’S HOAG MEMORIAL INTO 2027 SEASON

Press Release By: Marty Czekala – October 13, 2026

Hot Laps will mean a little more when the A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints heads to Outlaw Speedway this weekend and into 2027.

Mike Emhof Motorsports and CRSA are excited to welcome HotLap 3D into the CRSA family of marketing partners. They will sponsor hot laps for this weekend’s two-night Hoag Memorial and hot laps throughout the 2027 season.

Friday night, the fastest car in each of the two groups will receive $25 cash or a check and a $25 gift certificate to HotLap 3D on orders over $75 in existing parts in their catalog.

Saturday night’s recipient will be the group with the overall fastest time across all groups.

“We’re excited to welcome HotLap 3D to CRSA,” said Mike Emhof. “They’ve done a lot for our sprint car drivers with great results and we want to help them get their products out to even more drivers. This will also give our drivers something else to fight for before heat races!”

Founded in Spring 2026 by Zac Case, HotLap 3D is a 3D printing business in Rochester, New York, helping race teams perform on and off the track. From hero card holders for the pits before a race to popular wash caps that prevent water from getting into exhaust pipes during a car wash, HotLap 3D is the place to go for new parts with your number and name on them.

“I’m thrilled to partner with Mike and everyone at the CRSA Sprints,” said Case. “Many of their drivers use our products to drive their performance on and off track. They put on a great product and support drivers before and after the races and we are excited to raise the stakes during the program in 2026!”

“I’m so proud to see the 3D printing business that Zac has started,” said Marty Czekala, CRSA’s announcer, media director and friend of Case. “Through word of mouth that I started to get to teams, numerous drivers have reached out to purchase his products with stunning results. Not only is he an incredible person and small business owner, but he’s also a great announcer too!”

Case, who joined Czekala in the booth at Outlaw last July, will join him in the booth this weekend at Outlaw to close out the 2026 calendar.

The first HotLap 3D bonus gets awarded Friday night.

The CRSA Sprints are brought to you by A-Verdi Storage Containers.

Landon Brooks 7th at NARC’s Pay Dirt Classic

PETERSEN MEDIA: Saturday night marked the penultimate night of action for the NARC series in 2026, and in what was the lone visit of the season by the 410ci sanctioning body Landon Brooks picked up a seventh-place finish as the Hamilton Racing with Tiner Hirst Ent. team looks ahead to Saturday’s finale in Hanford, CA.

“Despite the track being really fast all night and tough to pass on, we were able to pass cars and that is all I can ask for on my end,” Landon Brooks said. “I really got going after a caution around the halfway point and it allowed me to work forward and get us into the Top-10.”

With a total of 25 cars rolling into Placerville Speedway on Saturday night for NARC action, Brooks got the night underway by timing in 11th fastest in qualifying time trials.

Moving into heat race competition, the Rio Oso, CA pilot took the green flag from the inside of the second row. Unfortunately, the inside was not the ideal starting spot early in the night and Brooks fell back to fourth when the race went green.

Battling with Shane Golobic who was applying heavy pressure for all eight laps, Brooks maintained fourth and the finish put him in the 12th starting position for the 30-lap feature event.

When the feature event went green, Brooks slipped back to 12th as he settled on a surface that was still very fast, very similar to the Thunderbowl Raceway surface just one week prior.

Continuing to run in 12th as the laps clicked off rapidly, a caution on the 13th lap took traffic out of the equation and put the field in clear track and in double file formation. When the green replaced the yellow, Brooks was able to get the top groove of the track working to his favor as he began to charge forward.

Jumping into 10th on the restart, Brooks continued to battle as a nice move on the 18th lap saw him jump up into eighth.

With time winding down, Brooks then was in a battle for seventh on the 20th lap and was able to take the spot for good on the 23rd lap. Holding onto the spot for the final eight laps, Brooks brought the night to a close with his 31st Top-10 of the year.

Heading into Saturday’s season finale in Hanford, CA, Brooks sits in a tie for third in driver points with the series, and will look to solidify his position in the final NARC event of the year.

“Even as the season starts to wind down, we will continue to look for that little bit in qualifying that we seem to lack for some reason,” Brooks said. “We continue to race well, but if we can put ourselves in position to get into these dashes and re draw, I know for a fact we will get even better finishes. I really want to thank all of my guys for continuing to work hard at the shop as well as at the track, as well as the Hamilton family and our partners for ensuring we have what we need to compete.”

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing would like to thank Lippert Construction, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Mozingo Construction, Dan Ewart Sales, Clow Valve, Vinyltech PVC Pipe, Teichert Construction, Advanced Drainage Systems, B Scadden Designs, SIP, North Bay Waterworks, Custom Pipe & Fabrication, Star Pipe Products, Westlake Pipe & Fittings, Eagle Chassis, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc. HRP, Sander Engineering, K1 Racegear, Kevin Sharrah Designs, Petersen Media, Met Tec Titanium, Slade Shocks, Wilwood Disc Brakes, System 1 Pro Ignition, and ZMax for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts- 50, Wins- 2, Top 5’s- 15, Top 10’s- 31

ON TAP: Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing are set for the 2026 NARC finale on Saturday night in Hanford, CA.

Mallett Captures Victory at Riverside International Speedway

Inside Line Promotions – WEST MEMPHIS, Ark. (Oct. 13, 2026) – Jordon Mallett produced one of his most complete performances of the season last Friday at Riverside International Speedway, which hosted a local show after the USCS Series’ Flip Flop 50 was postponed because of incoming weather.

Mallett quickly worked from fifth into second place during a heat race before he guided the A.G. Rains’ owned sprint car into the top spot following a spirited duel.

“I felt like it was finally the night we’ve been trying to get off our back all year,” Mallett said. “I just felt like we executed perfectly on Friday night. A heat race win from fifth really put us in great position. Being able to start on the front row of the feature was a pleasant change of pace for us. It was the first time we’ve started there all year. We put ourselves in position all night long and were rewarded for that.”

The heat race victory gave Mallett the pole position for the main event.

“We were just on point from the moment we rolled out of the trailer,” he said. “We have such a good package and just needed things to roll our way. We had a really good race car. The feature was annoyingly long because of some cautions. It took a while to get going. As the leader you’re so vulnerable on a restart. Once we’d get a full lap up to speed we were comfortable. It was a really consistent night that met our expectations of how we feel we should perform.”

The strong showing provided Mallett his second win of the season, giving him multiple triumphs in the same season for the eighth time in his career. It also locked him into the Flip Flop 50 features, which have been rescheduled for Nov. 6-7.

“West Memphis for so many years was one of my favorites in the country,” he said. “Ever since they put the concrete up it’s been my kryptonite. I just couldn’t seem to finish the night on the front straightaway. It felt like I got back to my old days. You had to run the curb hard on the fence and really earn it. That’s the old school vibe I remember. It was super rewarding to get that knocked out of the way before the Flip Flop 50.”

Mallett plans to join the ASCS National Tour this Friday and Saturday at Creek County Speedway in Sapulpa, Okla., for Fuzzy’s Fall Fling. He last competed at the track in June 2024, posting a ninth-place result.

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (October 13, 2026) - Due to injuries sustained in Lakeside Speedway’s Heartland of America Showdown on Saturday, October 10, Ridge & Sons Racing’s Aaron Reutzel will forgo the coming weekend’s High Limit Racing All-In Championship at Texas Motor Speedway, and instead, utilize a Medical Provisional. The decision follows Reutzel’s visit with medical professionals on Monday; he was not cleared for competition.

“Aaron’s health is our number one priority, and since he is unable to compete in the High Limit Racing season finale, our season at Ridge & Sons Racing is complete,” Ryan Wyant, Ridge & Sons Racing Team Manager, stated. “It was a great year and we have much to be proud of. But for now, our focus is on Aaron and giving him the support that he needs. We’ll see everyone in 2027.”

According to the High Limit Racing Rulebook, the Medical Provisional will grant Ridge & Sons Racing 94-points across the weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. This is due to a rounded 8.18 average finish plus five positions (13th), awarding the team 47-points per night.

Adamsky Trucking, Milton Hershey School, OMP, Shilling Excavating, Tech61, Berkebile Oil Company, Blue Mountain Wellness, No. 3Z sprinter, finished 13th in his Sharon takeover, maintaining his place midpack after starting from 11th on the grid. As expressed, the Sharon result was Zearfoss’ best of the weekend, forced to “DNF” at Millstream before a 25th-place score at Mansfield.

“We wanted a lot more out of our weekend, but we’re still trying to rebuild our program,” Zearfoss said. “We’re going to take this weekend off before making our final starts of the season.”

Brock Zearfoss will enjoy a weekend off.

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (October 12, 2026) - Rico Abreu’s High Limit weekend at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, may not have been his best statistically speaking, but the St. Helena, California, native is still the man in charge, working to secure a second consecutive High Limit Racing title in an upcoming doubleheader at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas.

Abreu, the ace of Tony Stewart’s Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing, Carquest, Curb Records, Sugarbee Apples, Waste Connections, Arc Zone, Martin One Source, Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, No. 24 sprinter, will enter the Texas double with a 45-point lead in the title chase, trailed by Spire’s own Gio Scelzi, followed by Ridge & Sons Racing’s Aaron Reutzel.

As hinted, Abreu’s Lakeside effort was tough in all sense of the word, forced to settle with a 12th-place outcome on Friday, October 9, followed by a devastating disqualification in Saturday’s finale. The disqualification was due to a work area mix up; fuel was added when not permitted by Series officials.

Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing will continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with a two-day Texas Motor Speedway invasion on Friday and Saturday, October 16-17. The event will conclude the High Limit season.

HIGH ROLLIN’: Jace Park powers to High Limit top-ten at Lakeside

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (October 12, 2026) - Jace Park and Jace Park Racing put on a show in their two-day visit to Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, and although High Limit’s “Heartland of America Showdown” welcomed some of the best in the country, Park persevered, powering on to a Series top-ten in the weekend finale on Saturday, October 10.

Park, the ace of his own Associates Insurance Group, Impact Signs/Awnings/Wraps, Adki Landscaping, FinanciaLife Outfitters, Clem Helmets, Maxim Racing, Weld, Flying A Motorsports, Schoenfeld Headers, Allstar Performance, No. 28 sprinter, finished eighth in his top-ten achievement, doing so from deep within the field. In fact, Park’s eventual 14-position rally was enough to secure the evening’s Hard Charger Award - he passed the most cars of anyone.

Saturday’s result was a great improvement, as Park opened his Lakeside invasion with a 22nd-place score on Friday, October 9.

“Can’t say enough about this program. We’ve had some lows this season - some tough times - but we’ve been privileged to experience a lot of highs, as well,” Park said. “This team never gives up. They battle at whatever is thrown at them and I’m grateful.”

Jace Park and Jace Park Racing are unsure of coming plans. More news will be posted in the coming days.

TOTAL RESET: Brown to join High Limit Racing in Texas doubleheader

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. (October 12, 2026) - It was a tough weekend in Kansas City, but “Blackjack” Brian Brown is eager to regroup, set to follow High Limit Racing to the Lone Star State for the two-day “All-In Championship Weekend.”

Brown, who missed Saturday’s “Heartland of America Showdown” finale at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, will venture to Fort Worth with 11 High Limit Racing A-Main starts to his credit, traveling as far west at Las Vegas, Nevada, and as far as east at Port Royal, Pennsylvania.

“Obviously, just a tough weekend for our Casey’s | FVP team at Lakeside Speedway. Things started out OK on Friday by timing sixth quick, but we ended up hurting an engine in our heat race. The guys did a phenomenal job getting that changed, but unfortunately, we were just too tight for the main,” Brown noted. “Saturday, we didn’t get qualified as well as we’d like. Ended up missing a transfer spot in the heat which buried us in the ‘B.’ The track conditions made it tough to make any progress.

“Unfortunate to have a weekend like that, and so close to home, but that’s the way the ball bounces sometimes,” Brown added. “All we can do is maintain a good attitude and be ready to go at Texas Motor Speedway this Friday and Saturday.”

ON DECK:
Brian Brown and Brian Brown Racing will continue their 2026 campaign with a two-day Texas Motor Speedway invasion on Friday and Saturday, October 16-17. The event will conclude the High Limit season.

FORMAT ANNOUNCED FOR HOAG MEMORIAL, EVENT WILL PAY $4000-TO-WIN

Press Release By: Marty Czekala – October 10, 2026

An exciting two-day event will close the 2026 A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints season as the 305 Sprints head to Outlaw Speedway for the Hoag Memorial, with drivers competing for a $4000 top prize, the richest to-win race of the season.

The format will feature a different type of show compared to your normal CRSA event.

Friday

Friday’s portion of the Hoag Memorial will be a non-winners event, meaning anyone who has not won an A-Main in 2026 in any Sprint Car class is eligible for the CRSA portion. Winners can still enter the Empire Super Sprints portion of the show, just not the CRSA portion.

Drivers will draw for their group and split into an A/B format for timed hot laps, green-white-checkered. The top three times from each group will be inverted. Group one will set up the inside row while group two sets the outside row for the A-Main.

The feature will be 15 laps and pay $250 to win.

Saturday

Drivers will draw for groups. Timed hot laps will once again be split into an A/B format, with the top four inverted from each group.

Heats will be 10 laps, with the transfer spots depending on the following.

21-30 cars: Three heats, top six transfer

31-40 cars: Four heats, top five transfer

41-50 cars: Five heats, top four transfer

The heat winner, along with the fastest qualifier from the heat, will advance into the Elab Smokers Boutique Dash. If the heat winner is the fastest timer, the second-fastest timer will advance to the Dash.

The B-Main will line up from finishing position in heats instead of passing points.

The feature remains 25 laps and will pay $4000 to win, $250 to start.

The fastest overall timed hot lap on both nights will earn a bonus. Stay tuned for more details.

If you have questions about the format, call or text Mike Emhof.

The CRSA Sprints are brought to you by A-Verdi Storage Containers. Associate sponsors include Pit Stop Convenience Stores, DisBatch Brewing Company, Stirling Lubricants, Dandy, Joe's Garage, Westward Painting Company, Elab Smokers Boutique, iFreeze Storage & Distribution Center, Maguire Automotive Group, Powdertech Powdercoating, Ruggles World of Auto Body, PJC Business Ventures, Magsarus Ignitions, Hoosier Racing Tire, Bicknell Racing Products, Insinger Performance with their Stinger Race Fuel, My Race Pass and is owned and operated by Mike Emhof Motorsports.

GOSSEL LOOKING TO DO THE DOUBLE AT THIS YEAR'S OPEN WHEEL SHOWDOWN

October 9, 2026 – Las Vegas, Nevada - Bryan Gossel recently confirmed that he will be one of a handful of drivers who will compete in multiple divisions during this year’s Only Bulls Open Wheel Showdown at the “Bullring” at Las Vegas Motor Speedway November 5-7, 2026.

The Fort Collins, Colorado driver will be participating in the $50,000-to-win winged sprint car event as well as the $10,000-to-win Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts non-winged sprint car event.

Competing in multiple sprint car events on the same weekend is nothing new for Gossel. He is one of the most versatile sprint car drivers in the country. It is not uncommon for Gossel to run 410-winged dirt, 360-winged dirt, winged pavement, non-winged pavement, USAC Silver Crown dirt and pavement events in a single season.

His attempt to compete in both sprint car events at the Open Wheel Showdown will be old hat for Gossel. In fact, he attempted to do World of Outlaws and ASCS 360-winged dirt sprint car events on the same night at Dodge City, Kansas earlier in the year.

When the announcement came that non-wing sprint cars had been added to this year’s OWS Gossel was all in.

“I’m already there, and investing the time to be there, so it now gives me twice the opportunity to make some money” explained Gossel.

With the track being recently repaved Gossel, like many others, has many questions entering this year’s event. “Are they gonna put a lot of VHT on the track? I’m assuming they will because they normally have. Is the car gonna roll? Just figuring out what they’re doing to the track is challenging. We put the same set-up on it last year that we had run in 2024. The car wouldn’t even turn because it was so tight. The VHT could have definitely made the car way stuck. Normally new pavement makes a track super-fast. Just figuring out what they will do to the tack is part of the strategy you have to do for this race.”

Attempting to do multiple races should be easier this time around for Gossel compared to his last attempt at Dodge City.

“We handled everything, but the speed of the show made it challenging. We did have some issues. The left front brake on the outlaw car wasn’t working and I pulled in. With these events being spread out over two days that will make it way easier.

“The level of competition has gotten so good in recent years. I was talking to my crew chief Scott recently and he said I think we’re gonna be surprised with the caliber of the non-wing field. There are some California West Coat guys that are really good non-wing pavement guys that we’ve never heard of. Hopefully it's gonna be great racing and good competition”.

“Realistically a top five in both races is my goal. But a top ten would be ok. Winning is the ultimate goal. Aaron Willison has some stuff figured out that nobody does on the winged side of things. Kody Swanson is Kody Swanson. How can we catch up to these guys is what asking myself” concluded Gossel.

Eddie Tafoya Jr. Returns to One of His Favorite Hunting Grounds, Mohave Valley Raceway, This Saturday

Chino Hills, CA — October 8, 2026 — With his Midwest racing campaign in the rearview mirror, Southern California Sprint Car standout Eddie Tafoya Jr. returns to one of his most successful tracks, Mohave Valley Raceway, this Saturday night, October 10th. The race will mark his first appearance in the West since a fifth-place finish at Perris Auto Speedway on August 15th.

In eight previous appearances with the USAC/CRA Sprint cars at the banked, one-third-mile oval, located just five minutes from the Colorado River and approximately 20 miles from downtown Laughlin, Nevada, Tafoya has recorded six top-10 finishes. That impressive record includes a pair of third-place results, the most recent coming in this year's season opener on February 28th.

On that occasion, Tafoya kicked things off by qualifying sixth fastest in the 22-car field. He then charged from fifth to capture his heat race, earning the pole position for the night's main event.

When the green flag waved, the personable 29-year-old from Chino Hills wasted no time flexing his muscles. Tafoya blasted into the lead, set a torrid pace, and controlled the first eight laps. However, the competition was fierce, and he eventually found himself shuffled back to fourth.

But Tafoya was far from finished! The 2018 Perris Auto Speedway Young Guns champion and 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year dug deep, went back on the attack, and sliced and diced his way through the competition to reclaim second place.

The closing laps turned into an all-out war. Tafoya slipped back to third but refused to surrender another position. With challengers breathing down his neck, he delivered a yeoman's effort, fending off repeated attacks to secure a hard-earned podium finish in his first start of the season.

“I was leading and trying to find some grip,” Tafoya told the crowd after that race. “It is kind of hard there leading with K.T. (Kevin Thomas Jr.) back there. He runs the bottom and Ricky (Lewis) is going to pound the top. It is kind of difficult figuring where to go. Two or three of them got around me. I had to regather myself, pull back together, make good decisions, and get back up on the wheel.”

Before turning his attention back to racing in the West, Tafoya wrapped up his Midwest campaign in the prestigious USAC 4-Crown Nationals at Ohio's legendary Eldora Speedway. On the first night, he finished second in the C Main before placing 11th in the B Main. Two nights later, he recorded seventh-place finishes in both his heat race and the B Main at the famed half-mile oval affectionately known throughout the racing world as the “Big E.”

Eddie Tafoya can be followed on Instagram at eddietafoya51.

Team Tafoya Racing would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, BR Motorsports, King Racing Products, Gasper Transportation, CMI Precision Machining, Owen’s Insurance Services, Keen Concrete, DRC Chassis, and Rider Racing Engines for their continued support of the 2025 season.

WORLD OF OUTLAWS SPRINT CARS SET FOR AREA'S ONLY APPEARANCE OF 2026 SATURDAY AT SHARON; $18,000 ON THE LINE FOR “SHELDON HAUDENSCHILD’S BUCKEYE BRAWL”


By Mike Leone

October 10, 2026

(Hartford, OH)...Sharon Speedway will close out the 97th anniversary season this Saturday night (October 10) as the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series invade the 3/8-mile Hartford, Ohio oval for the Federated Auto Parts Showdown featuring “Sheldon Haudenschild’s Buckeye Brawl”. The Hovis Auto & Truck Supply UMP Mods presented by A&MP Electric will also be part of the show. Warmups will begin at 6:30 p.m. followed by qualifying and racing.

Saturday is a Menards Giveaway Night. There will be three drawings with one lucky fan winning a $500 Menards gift card! A second prize drawing will include a Charbroil gas grill with the third prize being a Shark Flexbreeze portable fan. Fans entering the grandstand ticket gates will receive a ticket for the drawing.

Saturday will be the season's only appearance in the eastern Ohio/western Pennsylvania region by "The Greatest Show on Dirt" and the final one of 2026 in the Buckeye State. Saturday will be part of the three-night swing by the World of Outlaws in Ohio with $18,000 on the line Thursday night at Millstream, Friday night at Mansfield and Saturday night at Sharon. The $18,000 to-win feature on Saturday night will be the richest Sprint Car event in the storied history of Sharon!

Unfortunately, Mother Nature has claimed three of the last four scheduled World of Outlaws Sprint Car shows at Sharon including the May 2 event; however, Saturday's weather is looking great with sunshine and temps in the mid-70s. The last time the World of Outlaws competed at Sharon was September 27, 2025 when Dale Blaney ended a winless drought of more than 10 years with the WoO by becoming the oldest winner in Series history at 61 years 7 months and 28 days! A huge field of 55 Sprint Cars was on hand for that event, which paid $12,000 to-win.

In 2024, two-time Series Champion, David Gravel, pocketed a $12,000 payday for his first career Sharon win. The WoO completed both events at Sharon in 2023 as the May show was won by 10-time Series Champion, Donny Schatz, for his first Sharon "410" feature win. Brad Sweet topped the September show for the second straight year in route to his fifth Series championship. In 2021, Dave Blaney won in spectacular fashion over Sheldon Haudenschild for his 95th career WoO win, but first since 1997!

Prior to 2021, the World of Outlaws last appeared at Sharon on June 1, 2007 when the "King of the Outlaws", Steve Kinser, scored the victory. Kinser leads the way at Sharon with four WoO wins, while aside from Sweet, Danny Lasoski is the only other repeat winner with victories in 2002 and 2004. Besides Gravel, Schatz and both Blaneys, other WoO winners at Sharon with one victory include the retired racers of Jac Haudenschild (2006), Jason Meyers (2005), and Joey Saldana (2002).

Entering this all-Ohio WoO weekend, David Gravel, sits atop the standings in search of his third straight title.

Chance Grasty Runs Fourth with NARC in Tulare, CA

PETERSEN MEDIA- Fresh off the Fall Nationals triumph a week ago, Chance Grasty and the F&F Racing team reunited with NARC on Saturday night for the first of three consecutive weekends to close out the series’ season and pocketed a fourth-place finish.

“It was fun to get back to Tulare, CA on Saturday night, and we had really good speed,” Chance Grasty said. “There wasn’t a whole lot of passing overall all night long, so we did what we needed to do and put ourselves in a good spot all night.”

Getting the night off to a great start at the lightning fast Thunderbowl Raceway, Grasty timed the Bushey Financial Services/C&H Motor Parts/Sierra Single Ply Roofing backed No. x1 entry in sixth fastest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, the Suisun City, CA driver was hard on the throttle as the race went green. Jumping into the lead, Grasty would not be denied as his win moved him into the all-important Dash.

Finishing third in the Dash, Grasty and F&F Racing were set for the 30-lap feature event from the inside of the second row.

With the 360 feature running 30 non-stop laps before the NARC feature, the track was still very fast and passing was at a premium.

As the NARC feature went green, a quick couple of yellow flags flew before the race finally got into a rhythm. One of the cautions was a jump start which put Grasty on the pole.

Slipping back to fifth as the race came to life, Grasty was back in the sixth position on the ninth lap and things were moving fast on his night.

Able to settle down, and settle in, Grasty worked his way back up into 5th just as the field was shown the cross flags on the 15th lap.

Back inside the Top-5, the youngster used a late restart to move into fourth as the action resumed. Maintaining for the final 11 laps, Grasty closed the night out with a fourth-place finish.

“Trying to find some racing room I lost a couple of spots early, but fortunately we were able to get them back to get into fourth before the checkered flew,” Grasty added. “My guys continue to work extremely hard, and they continue to give us a very good racecar.”

F&F Racing would like to thank Bushey Financial Services, C&H Motor Parts, Sierra Single Ply Roofing, Triple X Race Co., Wrayvon, CRV Carbon Solutions, Econo Lube ‘N’ Tune, XC Gear, All Pro Heads, Engler, and Don Ott Racing Engines for their support.

ON TAP: F&F Racing and Chance Grasty head to Placerville Speedway on Saturday night for the penultimate night on the NARC schedule.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-45, Wins-3, Top 5’s-14, Top 10’s-27

Mallett Focused on Continuing Success at Riverside International Speedway This Weekend During Flip Flop 50

Inside Line Promotions – GREENBRIER, Ark. (Oct. 6, 2026) – Jordon Mallett is eager for a unique event this weekend when Riverside International Speedway hosts the Flip Flop 50.

The dirt oval in West Memphis, Ark., showcases the twin 25-lap USCS Series main events on Saturday following Friday’s heat races and dash.

“We’ve won one of the features and traditionally we’ve ran really well there,” said Mallett, who drives for A.G. Rains. “The last time we ran it was in 2024 in A.G.’s car so we’re looking forward to it. We passed for the lead in the first feature, but didn’t complete the lap before a caution came out so we ran second.”

Mallett produced his best overall event in 2024 with a runner-up result during the first feature before charging from the back to a ninth-place finish. He was victorious during one of the Flip Flop 50 features in 2016.

“You want to get yourself into the dash that they run on Friday,” he said. “If you can do that you can sleep well Friday night and put yourself into contention for the first feature on Saturday. There’s strategy some guys play because if you’re not going to win the first feature how far forward do you want to finish because the second feature will be inverted. My thought process is simple. I want all we can get in the first one. It’s almost a pat on the back on how far back you start the second one because that shows how good you were in the first feature.

“It’s really the only place we’ve had this format. We’ve been on the good end of it before and on the bad end of it before. The format is so different than anything else you’ll run all year. It’s a fun race.”

Mallett has two top-five finishes and three top 10s in three starts at Riverside International Speedway this season.

SEASON STATS –

20 races, 1 win, 12 top fives, 16 top 10s, 17 top 15s, 20 top 20s

Troy Betts Crowned MASS Champ of Exciting 10th Anniversary Season

(October 5, 2026): The 10th Anniversary season of the Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series came to a close on September 25th as Troy Betts of Middletown DE claimed the 2026 championship with the popular series. Betts' second place finish at Bridgeport in the season finale secured his second championship with the series. This marked the 15th time in 19 races this year that he finished in the top five, highlighted by his three victories.

The 2026 season was certainly an exciting one, as 11 different drivers took home feature wins, including three first time winners in the series. Andrew Turpin of Saylorburg, PA picked up his first career MASS victory in just the third race of the season back on May 16th at Bridgeport. In July, Dan Leaper of Douglassville, PA paced the field in the first ever series stop at the Middleford Speedway, picking up his first ever sprint car victory.

Scranton, PA’s Mikey Smith picked his first two MASS wins in the year’s two biggest races of the year, the Joey Kay Memorial in June and the 305 Sprint car Nationals 50-lapper in Sept, both held at the Bridgeport Speedway. The much anticipated event, held on Labor Day weekend, saw Smith make a last lap pass on series founder Eddie Wagner to sweep the two biggest MASS races of the year. In the two exciting events that weekend, Wagner led 73 of 75 laps, posting second place finishes on both nights to Rick Lafferty on prelim night and Smith on Saturday, as both races came down to the final circuit.

The story all season long of course was Troy Betts, as he consistently kept his immaculately prepared #22 up front in each event. Bett’s finished in the top three in the first 6 events of the season, including two victories on the same weekend. In total Bett’s tied for the mostg feature wins in the series this season with 3, and finished in the top 5 on 15 occasions.

Tim Iulg , possibly competing in his final season, had a very strong year as well, winning the season opener at Bridgeport in April and putting up some really impressive stats of his own to finish second in points. Iulg posted a series high six fast time awards, and 12 top five finishes including his one win.

Rick Lafferty finished third in the point standings, rebounding back from missing his only event in the second race of the season. He posted three feature wins of his own, all coming in the last 2 months of the season. He finished in the top five in half of the races he entered.

Eddie Wagner overcame a slow start to the season, which included him losing a motor at Delaware international in the second event of the season, to finish fourth in point with a strong finish. Wagner finished strong as he finished in the top 6 in each of the final 9 races including his two wins to get within 5 points of Lafferty for third in the final standings.

Ryan Stillwagon rounded out the top five in points. He had an up-and-down season, but finished strong with his one win coming in September at Bridgeport.

Overall 49 different drivers competed in the 19 events so far, with 18 of those teams competing in 10 events or more.

The Mid-Atlantic Sprint series still has four events left on the schedule, so you still have time to witness some of this great Sprint car racing as they conclude their 10th anniversary season. This coming weekend they will be in competition on Friday night, Oct. 9, at the Georgetown Speedway to kick off a two night race weekend in the state of Delaware. Saturday night the series returns to Middleford Speedway in Seaford, Delaware for the much anticipated second visit to the racy quarter mile oval.

The series then concludes the 2026 season at the Bridgeport Speedway as part of the Dirty Jersey Finale on Halloween weekend October 30 and 31st, with Saturday’s race paying $2000 to win.

Colby Copeland and C&M Motorsports 5th with SCCT in Tulare, CA

PETERSEN MEDIA - Climbing back aboard the C&M Motorsports No. 7c on Saturday night for another round of Sprint Car Challenge Tour action in Tulare, CA, Colby Copeland had a solid showing that saw him pick up a fifth-place finish in what was a non-stop 30-lap feature.

“With the way the track was, we just needed to have a better redraw,” Colby Copeland said with a smile. “We had a really fast car all night thanks to Cody and Bobby, but it was a night where you finished where you started.”

Going out in the middle of the qualifying session on Saturday night, Copeland laid down a strong lap aboard the NOS Energy Drink/Lund Construction/Anrak backed No. 7c which resulted in him timing in fifth fastest.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, Copeland found himself in a drag race with DJ Netto heading into turns one and two. With Netto beating him to the corner, the Roseville, CA driver settled in behind him and held down the runner up position.

Finishing second, Copeland locked into the redraw where the ‘five’ put him in the third row of the 30-lapper on a very hooked up and fast Thunderbowl Raceway surface.

Following a quick track prep session, the field assembled for their lone appearance at the 1/3 mile oval of the season. When the green lights flashed on, Copeland settled into fifth and the field began turning in lightning-fast laps.

With laps clicking off extremely fast, the leaders did work their way into traffic at the race’s halfway point. Amidst traffic, Copeland snuck into fourth on the 17th lap, but was then back to sixth on the next lap.

Clicking off 30-laps with no stoppages, Copeland was able to work back into fifth on the 24th lap which is where he went on to close the night out.

“Running double duty, I was back and forth between both cars so it didn’t make it the easiest on my guys, but they did a great job of making sure we were ready,” Copeland noted.

The C&M Motorsports team would like to thank NOS Energy Drink, Lund Construction, Anrak, Sam Rhodes, MatriScope, Econo Lube-n-Tune, Alturas Tires, Swartz Diesel, Kings Meats, American Paving Systems, PT Shocks, and RJM Builders and all of their product sponsors for their continued support.

Landon Brooks 9th at Trophy Cup Tune Up

PETERSEN MEDIA: Getting one final race in at the Thunderbowl in Tulare, CA on Saturday night before the upcoming Trophy Cup, Landon Brooks and the Hamilton Racing with Tiner Hirst Ent. team picked up a ninth-place finish with NARC.

“Saturday night we raced really well despite the track being heavy and fast for much of the night,” Landon Brooks said. “Qualifying still is our Achilles’ heel, but fortunately we are able to rebound during racing action and grabbed another Top-10.”

Timing the Lippert Construction/Tiner Hirst Ent./Mozingo Construction backed No. 21L in 19th fastest in time trials, the Rio Oso, CA driver lined up seventh in his heat race. Getting a good start when the green flag was displayed, Brooks jumped into sixth right away, and then was able to move into fifth.

Settling into the fifth spot, Brooks went on to finish there which placed him 13th on the starting grid for the 30-lap feature event. With the track getting a bit of work before the feature, Brooks and company were set from the inside of the seventh row.

When the green flag dropped Brooks worked into 11th on the second lap and began turning in solid laps on a very fast Thunderbowl Raceway surface. As the race clicked off quick laps, Brooks was able to make some moves as the halfway point neared.

Moving into ninth on the 15th lap, Brooks found himself in a multi car battle for position inside the Top-10. Slipping back to 10th amidst the action, Brooks was back up into eighth on the 22nd lap.

Jumping into seventh on the 25th lap, Brooks had a slight misstep that cost him a couple of positions as he slipped back to ninth which is where he went on to finish.

“The race track was really fast and tough to pass on all night, so I am really happy we were able to make some moves and pass cars,” Brooks added. “I feel good about our car in Tulare, CA and am looking forward to Trophy Cup in a few weeks. I really want to thank the Hamiltons for continuing to support our team, all of the great sponsors behind us, and the Tiner Hirst Enterprise guys for working so hard on our car.”

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing would like to thank Lippert Construction, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Mozingo Construction, Dan Ewart Sales, Clow Valve, Vinyltech PVC Pipe, Teichert Construction, Advanced Drainage Systems, B Scadden Designs, SIP, North Bay Waterworks, Custom Pipe & Fabrication, Star Pipe Products, Westlake Pipe & Fittings, Eagle Chassis, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc.

Joel Myers Jr Collects Two Weekend Wins

PETERSEN MEDIA: Joel Myers Jr and the Hayward Motorsports team had a great weekend that saw the Sebastopol, CA driver score a win at Jacksonville Speedway on Friday and back it up with another win on Saturday night at I-55 Raceway.

“Our last weekend out we struggled a bit at Eldora and Kokomo, so it was great to bounce back and have a lot of speed at Jacksonville, and I5-5,” Joel Myers Jr said.

Myers Jr’s weekend came to life on Friday night where the heat race draw put the Velocity Engineering/Installtec Inc./RPM Chassis backed No. 19 on the pole of his heat race.

A good start to his heat race saw Myers Jr grab the lead, which he would not relinquish. Racing to the win, Myers Jr moved into the feature event where he took the green flag from the outside of the second row.

With a pile up in the middle of the field negating the initial start, the second start saw Myers Jr move into third as he chased after the led duo of Zach Daum and Karter Sarff.

As the three drivers hooked up in a very entertaining battle, Myers Jr moved into second on the 13th lap as he chased Daum in thick traffic. Making his move on the 21st lap, Myers Jr stormed into the lead and led the final five laps to pocket the win.

Heading to Pevely, MO on Saturday night to compete with POWRi at I-55 Raceway, the Hayward Motorsports team’s speed continued as Myers Jr timed in second quickest in his qualifying flight.

Finishing third in heat race competition, the California native lined up for the feature event on the inside of the third row.

Moving into second when the green lights flashed, Myers Jr was hot on Howard Moore’s tail as he ripped around the high-side of the famed bullring. Taking over the lead on the eighth lap, Myers Jr’s stint out front was short lived as Moore got him back on the 10th lap while they raced through traffic.

Back in second, Myers Jr continued to keep pace with Moore as they had a high-speed game of chess weaving in out and of traffic. Moore was forced to slow his pace on the 21st lap as he approached a pair of slower cars, Myers Jr was able to ride his momentum back into the lead on lap 22. This time, Myers would not hand it back over as he led the final four laps to cap his weekend sweep.

“We have really been working a lot on our cars, and behind the wheel I have been making my racecraft a big focus and it is definitely making a difference,” Myers Jr added. “A big thank you to all of my guys, as well as the Hayward family and all of our partners for their continued support.”

Joel Myers Jr and Hayward Motorsports would like to thank Velocity Engineering, Installtec Inc., RPM Chassis, DirtDudes Excavating, FK Rod Ends, Russ Wentcamp, The GR8 Company, All About Fire Protection, Sam Carbis Solutions Group, Brad Alexander Suspension, Jim O’Neal Ford, Blackburn Construction, Al Parker Engines, Nitro Alley Graphics, and Brown and Miller Racing Solutions.

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Victorious During National Open Weekend at Williams Grove

Inside Line Promotions – MECHANICSBURG, Pa. (Oct. 5, 2026) – Big Game Motorsports driver David Gravel reached Victory Lane last Friday at Williams Grove Speedway, marking his 11th World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series triumph of the season.

He followed with a fourth-place finish on Saturday to cap the J&S Classics National Open at Williams Grove Speedway with another top five during a crown jewel event.

“Everything went well,” Gravel said. “We qualified well like we have been doing there and we got in the dash both nights.”

On Friday, Gravel qualified second quickest in his group before he won a heat race, the dash and the main event.

“We had a great dash draw and felt really good,” he said. “It’s always good to start on the pole of an A Main. I lost the lead early, but felt the race would be won in traffic. We got to traffic and were able to capitalize. The leader was starting to fade and we were getting better. With a full load of fuel we aren’t as fast as some guys, but we know our car comes on late.”

Gravel led the final 17 laps of the 25-lap race for his third victory at Williams Grove Speedway this season. It was his first win since August 1.

“We should have won last month in Colorado,” he said. “It was my fault. That would have shortened the gap in half there. In California, I didn’t really have much opportunity to win. It seems every time someone talks about a winless streak we get a win so I’m all for everyone bringing it up.”

Gravel wrapped up the weekend on Saturday by setting quick time during his group’s qualifying session. He finished second in a heat race before fourth-place runs in both the dash and the main event.

“Really happy with qualifying and from there I didn’t get the best start in the heat race,” he said. “I fell to third and had to work really hard to get back to second. That was huge. The kid that drew my number in the dash draw the last two nights did a great job and got me the best possible number at the time. In the feature, a couple of cautions didn’t go my way and we didn’t have a good start after the open red. If a couple of things go differently, I think we could have ran second, but we ended up fourth.”

Gravel currently owns a 142-point lead in the World of Outlaws championship standings heading into a tripleheader weekend. It begins on Thursday at Millstream Speedway in Findlay, Ohio. On Friday, Mansfield Speedway in Mansfield, Ohio, hosts a race before the weekend concludes on Saturday at Sharon Speedway in Hartford, Ohio, during Sheldon Haudenschild’s NOS Energy Drink Buckeye Brawl Weekend.

“I’ve never been to Mansfield,” Gravel said. “We won at Millstream last year and we’ve been really, really strong at Sharon. I’m looking forward to this weekend.”

Ross Earns Hard Charger, Fights Through Tough Stretch Ahead of Nace Memorial​

Lincoln University, PA – October 5, 2026

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt

Tyler Ross has had a stretch of racing that tested the team’s patience. A hard charger award at Williams Grove Speedway was the high point, and a broken part on the biggest night of the National Open weekend was the low. Through it all, the team is staying focused on getting its motor and setup working together, and Tyler is not giving up.
From Start-and-Park Plan to Hard Charger

The best night of the stretch came September 25th at Williams Grove Speedway, and it almost didn’t happen. Tyler qualified 22nd, finished 8th in his heat, and had to run the B-main to advance to the A-main, where he started 23rd. He drove from there to a 15th-place finish and earned hard charger honors.

“We struggled all night until the feature, and things just went our way,” Tyler said.

“I was actually planning to start and park, but we passed a few cars early and decided to stay out.“
Trying Something Different

The two races before that were quiet nights. At Williams Grove on September 18th, Tyler started 15th in the A-main and finished 16th. At BAPS Motor Speedway on September 19th, he started 17th and moved up to 12th.

“Williams Grove has been a struggle all season for us,” Tyler said.

“At BAPS (Motor Speedway) we buried ourselves early, and the track was fast and around the top, so it was hard to pass a lot of cars after the first few laps.”

On September 30th at Lincoln Speedway, the team took a different approach. Looking to learn something and shake up a run of tough luck, they brought out the black car, an older car the team hadn’t raced since the first half of the 2025 season and one with a different motor than the primary car.

Tyler qualified 11th of 31 cars, started 3rd and finished 4th in his heat, and was running well early in the night. By feature time, though, the setup wasn’t where it needed to be.

“It was a different car, and the track was different, so we just misjudged it,” Tyler said. He pulled off the track and was scored 19th after starting 12th.
Tough Break at the National Open

The Williams Grove National Open weekend began with the team digging out of a hole on October 2nd. With 56 cars signed in, Tyler timed in 21st of 28 cars in Flight B, which meant he had to run the non-qualifiers race just to earn a spot in a heat race. He did his part, starting 2nd and winning it, but the rough qualifying run had already put him behind. He finished 10th in his heat, then started 17th in the B-main and finished 18th, short of a transfer to the A-main.

Saturday, October 3rd, ended before it began. Tyler didn’t make a lap in qualifying after a U-joint broke as the car came to the green for time trials. The failure ended the night early for Ross Racing. The team would not have been able to make repairs in time to qualify.

“When the car breaks as it did on Saturday, you can’t learn anything,” Tyler said.

“Every lost opportunity like that just stretches the timeline ever longer for us to get back to what we know our team is capable of.“
Working Toward the Right Combination

Tyler is candid that the team is still searching. Qualifying remains the weak spot, but he believes the team is heading in the right direction.

“We’re still struggling, but I think we’re on the right track with qualifying,” he said.

“We need to get the confidence back, knowing we can time better.“

The team is finding little things and taking the time to get them figured out, including working to dial in a motor and setup combination that works well together. The team is also considering bringing out a new car before the end of the year.

“Stretches like these are part of racing. Everyone struggles at times,” Tyler said.

“We’re not going to give up.”
Looking Ahead

Tyler and the team will head to Selinsgrove Speedway this weekend for the Jim Nace Memorial National Open on October 9th and 10th.

It’s a track Tyler enjoys racing and a place where he finished 3rd on August 30th. Tyler said afterward that he now knew what the car needed to be really good there, and this weekend gives the team a chance to show it.

Whittall quick in National Open, Jim Nace Memorial doubleheader ahead

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

VINCENTOWN, N.J. (October 4, 2026) - Williams Grove Speedway’s annual National Open attracts the best that the world has to offer, and for New Jersey’s own Justin Whittall, a former Port Royal Speedway track champion and multi-time Dirty Jersey Finale winner at Bridgeport Motorsports Park, it's a chance to prove a point. And a point is what he proved, not only earning back-to-back National Open A-Main starts, but a top-ten to boot - leading laps in the process.

Whittall, backed by Rod Gross Motorsports, RBH Group, Turret Engineering, JG Kronenberger Fine Jewelry, Mid-Atlantic Transport, Pandemonium Bar & Grill, Pioneer Auto Body, Worldwide Bearings, Enterprise, and Milky Way Restaurant, finished eighth in his top-ten appearance, doing so in Friday night’s National Open preliminary. In fact, and as hinted, Whittall led eight circuits of the 25-lap contest, commencing action from second on the grid after finishing second in his respective heat race, as well as second in the program’s Dash.

Although unable to match his preliminary outcome, Whittall raced on to finish 14th in the $75,000-to-win National Open finale - he started tenth.

“Super happy for everyone involved. We were in a great position on Friday, and we had hoped to match that on Saturday, but to do what we did is pretty special. Especially with that level of competition,” Whittall said. “We’re going to give it another go this weekend at Selinsgrove. Looking forward to a great event.”

Xavier Doney podiums with POWRi, set to debut updated version of Schnee-Lawson Chassis 20-degree cockpit at Lakeside

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

ODESSA, Mo. (October 5, 2026) - For the first time in Series history, the POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League visited the highbanks of I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway Park in Pevely, Missouri, represented by a stacked field of 36 entries, as well as a $5,000 potential.

Xavier Doney, a POWRi championship contender with three Series wins to-date, made the most of his visit to greater St. Louis, concluding action with a top-five result from midpack. Impressive, to say the least, the Odessa, Missouri, wheelman, powered by Kat Excavation, Pella Building Systems-Mini Storage Specialists, Schnee-Lawson Chassis, Motor Haven, Five Star Bodies, Stanton Racing Engines, CALI Floors, Wilwood Disc Brakes, DMI, Schaeffer Oil, Outlaw Wings, Schoenfeld Headers, Smith Titanium, and Design Source Flooring, finished third in his top-five appearance, commencing action from 12th on the A-Main grid.

In fact, Doney’s Pevely performance allowed for a championship takeover, now on top the POWRi standings by 10 markers with only two events remaining. The Series finale will take center stage at the Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track on November 5-7 - the first of the three contests featuring practice only.

Despite a break in POWRi action, Doney’s October slate is far from over, ready to challenge the best of High Limit Racing in a two-day takeover of Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, on October 9-10. Adding to the weekend’s agenda, the ace of the Doney-Lawson Racing | Schnee-Lawson Chassis House Cars sprinter will debut an all-new Schnee-Lawson concept, built complete with a 20-degree seat cockpit on top of an 87/40 wheelbase. The updated concept differs slightly from the 20-degree car debuted at Lucas Oil Speedway on September 17, as the prior version featured a 89/42 wheelbase.

Danner Wins Rollie Beale Classic in First Attempt

Saturday at Toledo in Doran-Swanson Racing No. 77

And Finishes Second in USAC Silver Crown Points

TOLEDO, Ohio, Oct. 4 — Doran-Swanson Racing’s Briggs Danner won the Hemelgarn Racing/Super Fitness Rollie Beale Classic USAC Silver Crown season finale Saturday at Toledo Speedway in his first race ever at the half-mile paved oval.

With the victory the Allentown, Pa.-based driver clinched second place in the USAC Silver Crown driver championship in his first full season in the series. He and Justin Grant both finished with 557 points, but Danner won the tiebreaker because he had three wins and Grant, the series’ defending champion, had none this year.

Five of the last six USAC Silver Crown races at this track have now been won by a Doran Racing No. 77 based in Lebanon, Ohio.

The USAC Silver Crown series is unique in that it stages races on both pavement and dirt tracks. Doran-Swanson Racing fielded cars for Danner in the series’ pavement races, while he drove for DMW Motorsports in the dirt-track events. For Danner’s three victories out of the 10 races held, two came on pavement tracks in the Doran car (Winchester, Ind., and Toledo), and one came on a dirt track for DMW (Springfield, Ill.) C.J. Leary won the championship with three victories too, and his also came at two paved tracks and one dirt track.

Polesitter Chase Cabre led the first 45 laps on Saturday night at Toledo before Danner took command of the 100-lap race. But Tyler Roahrig, who started eighth, made many stabs at passing Danner during the last half of the race after he moved into second on lap 54. Danner’s margin of victory over Roahrig was 0.478 seconds.

One stat that showed how tight the competition was ranks the drivers by their fastest race lap. Roahrig got that distinction with a time of 15.698 seconds on lap 75. Danner was second in that category with a 15.719 on lap 74.

Danner started third in the 18-car field in the No. 77, which is sponsored in part by E. Schneider & Sons Inc. Recycling, Fuelmart, and Sennebogen, and was powered by a Lanci Ford engine.

Kyle Hamilton started fourth but retired after just two laps with a mechanical issue, and Grant, who started fifth, took several stabs at Danner in the early going.

But Danner passed Mario Clouser, who started second, on lap 32 between Turns 1 and 2 to move into second place. He was able to close in on Cabre immediately, and hounded him until he made the winning move working lap 46 when Cabre made a tiny bobble and Danner charged under him as they flew out of Turn 4.

Danner was able to build a lead of over 1 second over Cabre almost as soon as he got by him, as he enjoyed a 1.5-second advantage at the halfway mark. By lap 54 he had built up a 2.107-second lead.

But Roahrig got around Cabre for second on that lap, and was coming on strong. Danner had a 2.536-second lead over Roahrig by lap 60 before the second and final yellow flew on lap 62 when Jared Kreider stopped short of the pits. (The first yellow was from laps seven through 15 when Gregg Corey’s car experienced an oil fire. No one was hurt.)

Roahrig knew the restart on lap 67 would be his best shot to get by, but Danner was up to the challenge. Still, Roahrig kept the pressure up the rest of the race. He was only 0.363 behind on lap 75 and only 0.344 behind on lap 80, but Danner was able to increase his lead to 0.505 by lap 85. Roahrig closed to just 0.263 once again with seven laps to go, but Danner persevered.

Cabre finished third. Grant, who won this race last year, finished fourth, and Dakoda Armstrong placed fifth.

“It was tough. I don’t quite know what I’m doing when it’s so much defensive driving!” Danner said afterwards. “Tyler was really good rolling the middle groove. I felt like I could roll the bottom of [Turn] 3 and 4 really good. That’s where I felt the best. As the race went on the sun was getting lower and lower, and it made it hard to see the frontstretch wall. So I felt like that’s where I struggled the most. Tyler was gaining on me at the exit off 4 and the entry into 1 at the end. I was just trying to keep all four tires underneath me and conserve what I could and push when I had to. That’s the name of the game for all these races. That’s why I love them so much.

“Kevin [Doran] did a really good job on the radio of letting me know what was going on behind me, when I needed to push, and when I could settle down and save my stuff a little bit.

“I’ve just got to hand it to everybody on this team. These guys give me a really fast car. Our speed showed today. I know we probably would’ve liked to have been a little bit better at the end, and I know Tyler had a shot to do something. But to qualify as good as we did in my first time coming here and to be able to hold them off, it was great.

“Thanks to all our sponsors, and congrats to C.J. for winning the title.

“I had a lot of fun, and hopefully it was a good show. It was a great way to end the season!”

Cabre’s top time to win the pole on Saturday afternoon was 15.159 seconds. Clouser ran a 15.256. Danner’s best lap in qualifying was his second one, which he did in 15.290. That was only 0.131 off the pole.

Danner was sixth in the first practice session with a 15.447 to Leary’s 15.140. He was third in the second practice session with a 15.326 to Cabre’s 15.235. Overall in the results from both practice sessions he was fourth, behind Leary, Cabre, and Grant.

Saturday’s race, like all USAC Silver Crown events, was streamed live on Flo Racing.

Attica Raceway Park hands out $50,000 in 2026 point fund

By Brian Liskai

ATTICA, Ohio – Attica Raceway Park is handing out $50,000 in point fund money for the top 10 in points in the track’s three weekly divisions that competed in the 2026 season.

KMS REVEALS SEASON SCHEDULE

WITH the new season soon upon us, the Krikke Motorsport team are excited to release their 2026-27 season schedule for what is their 47th season of Sprintcar racing.

It has certainly been a busy off season for the whole Krikke Motorsport team with them working hard in the race shop, along with team driver Dayne Kingshott spending three busy months taking on some of the world’s biggest 410 Sprintcar events over in America, and they can’t wait for the new season to get underway with the Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series opener on October 24 at the Perth Motorplex.

“In the six seasons we have been together, I can’t think of us being better prepared for a new season than this one with the team having been very busy in the race shop over the off season and Dayne getting plenty of quality seat time over in America with our crew chief Matt (Cochrane) alongside him, so it certainly buoys well for us going into the season ahead,” commented Krikke Motorsport team manager Ryan Krikke.

“The team has mapped out a busy schedule here in Western Australia and the focus is on trying to claim a fourth Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series crown on the trot and of course trying to go one spot better on the podium in the High Limit International. When it comes to travelling over the east this season, our aim is to head over for the Grand Annual Classic in January and run a couple of other events that tie in nicely with that trip; however, that is heavily dependent on how the first half of the season goes but we’re confident we will make the trek once again.”

Stay tuned for further Krikke Motorsport team updates as the new season approaches.

Top Storylines Heading into the Toledo Speedway

The yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour hits its finishing stretch of the 2026 season as it heads to Toledo Speedway for the Monroe Asphalt 40 and the Stars, Stripes, and Speed Festival.

Three Drivers running double duty

With the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour sharing the racing program with the USAC Silver Crown Series, three drivers will be tackling the tricky Ohio track for both groups. Dakoda Armstrong, Nathan Byrd, and Tyler Roahrig will be the three drivers running double duty this weekend. This will be the first time in 2026 that the two series will be sharing the track together, and the first time since October, 19th 2024 at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park. At this point in the season, all three competitors are on the outside looking in to the championship picture. The plan for this weekend is simple, have fun, turn a lot of laps, and go chase a victory.

Getting hot at the right time

With the championship approaching its end, Bobby Santos III is hitting his stride at the right time. Coming off of his first win in 2026, Santos will be heading back to a track where he has seen a lot of success in his career. Santos went to victory lane at Toledo Speedway last season when the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour visited, and also has a fourth place and third place finish in the Tour’s other visits to the track. With momentum on his side following his win in the Tony Elliott Classic, Santos will need another big night to close the championship gap that Kody Swanson and Jackson Macenko have put on the rest of the field. The Monroe Asphalt 40 at Toledo Speedway will mark the penultimate event for the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour with the Championship event at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park only a few weeks away. Can Santos have another big night and turn the championship into a true three man fight?

Finding his Mojo?

Donnie Adams Jr. (Yorktown, Indiana) had his career best yourBigplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour finish last Saturday at Anderson Speedway when he brought home a fifth place finish. Adams returned to racing in 2024 after taking a five year hiatus from the sport. Since then, Adams has been looking to find his groove again. After last weekend’s strong finish, perhaps he has finally found what he is looking for. Adams was a prominent name in the Little 500 for over a decade. Having qualified on pole in 2007 and a career best third place finish in 2006, he was always a car to keep a close eye on. Now that he seems to be hitting his stride behind the wheel of a non-wing sprint car, can he find the magic once again and start competing for wins?

Can he keep the Ironman streak alive?

The Ultimate 500 Sprint Car Tour Ironman, Justin Harper, thought his 2026 season was dead in the water until just the other day when life was injected back into the team. Harper has famously competed in every yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour event since its inception in 2022. That streak was seriously threatened after the team suffered an engine failure during the Tony Elliott Classic. At the time, the team thought their season, and their unprecedented streak, was officially over. Now, there is hope after all. The team was able to acquire a loaner engine and have begun preparations to travel north to Toledo Speedway. If the team is able to make it through qualifying, Harper will officially keep his starting streak alive and will continue to be known as the 500 Sprint Car Tour Iron Man.

Stars, Stripes, and Speed Festival is going to be one to remember

Toledo Speedway is set to end their 2026 season this Saturday with the Stars, Stripes, and Speed Festival. The event will be action packed as in an attempt to close out the season with a BANG! In addition to the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour, Fans will also be treated to action from the USAC Silver Crown Series, Valley Truck Centers Outlaw Super Late Models, and Factory Stocks. The Silver Crown event will be the Hemelgarn Racing/Super Fitness Rollie Beale Classic as well as their Championship event. The Valley Truck centers Outlaw Super Late Models will be competing in the Fold of Honor 50 presented by Lakeside Interiors, and the Factory Stocks will be competing for their 2026 season championship. The final event of 2026 for Toledo Speedway will surely be one to remember with an action packed night full of championship caliber racings. Winners will rejoice, champions will be crowned, and fans will leave wanting more.

Race Info

The Monroe Asphalt 40 will be part of Toledo Speedway's Stars, Stripes and Speed Fest on Saturday, October 3. Pit gates and registration open at 9:00 a.m., with the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour driver's meeting scheduled for 11:00 a.m. The Tour's engine heat will take place at 11:45 a.m., followed by the first practice session at noon and final practice at 1:50 p.m. Qualifying is scheduled for 2:30 p.m., with opening ceremonies beginning at 4:00 p.m. The yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour Monroe Asphalt 40 feature will be part of an action-packed afternoon and evening that also includes the USAC Silver Crown Championship Rollie Beale Classic, the Folds of Honor 50 for Outlaw Super Late Models and the Monroe Asphalt Factory Stock Championship.

Lattomus Adapts Through Crew Transition and Tough Breaks, Keeps Foot on the Gas​

Lewes, DE – October 2, 2026

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt

The last six weeks have tested the depth of Preston Lattomus’s program as much as his driving. Despite a crew chief departure, a scheduling crunch, and a pair of hard-luck DNFs alongside genuine speed and two notable recovery drives, Lattomus found creative ways to keep himself in a seat every weekend.
A Changing Crew

At the end of August, crew chief Kyle Reinhardt stepped away from the team for the remainder of the season for the birth of his and his wife’s first child. Scott McClaren, who has helped fill in as lead wrench, is unable to cover Friday races due to his son’s football schedule, limiting the team’s availability on certain nights through the rest of the year.

“I’m very thankful for those guys. They put in countless hours to get us to the track every night,” Lattomus said.

“Kyle has helped me get better every night, with just little insights and things he saw to help me improve. I’m incredibly happy for Kyle to move on to the next chapter of his life and continue to make everyone around him proud to know him.“
Three Races, One Borrowed Ride

With the team unable to run its own No. 91 on Fridays for the rest of the season, the search for a way to keep Lattomus racing led to an opportunity with car owner John Westbrook, whose No. 1w became available after regular driver Buddy Schweibinz moved over to the 69k for a series of events.

The arrangement with Westbrook was planned as a three-race stint — Williams Grove on September 18th, BAPS Motor Speedway on September 19th, and Williams Grove again on September 25th — with no further Westbrook dates currently planned.

“I actually really enjoyed the way the 1w felt. The car was very balanced and pleasant to drive,” Lattomus said.

“It was definitely a learning experience as far as getting to try something new and experience something different.“
Six Weeks on Track

The stretch opened at Lincoln Speedway on September 5th, where Lattomus qualified 15th and rallied from 18th to 16th in a tough A-Main. The following night, back at Lincoln, the No. 91 was arguably the best car on the track entering the feature after Lattomus started 2nd.

“The car was on point most of the night and felt like the best car on the track come feature time,” he said — but about 15 laps in, a part failure in the steering sent him into the wall, ending the night early.

Lattomus made his first start in Westbrook’s No. 1w on September 18th at Williams Grove, qualifying 8th in his group and winning his heat race outright. His night ended on the opening lap of the A-Main when another car changed lanes in front of him entering the back stretch, collecting him in the process.

“It sucked that it happened, and it was in John Westbrook’s car,” Lattomus said.

“I feel we had a great shot at moving forward in the feature and didn’t get an opportunity to even try.“

The next night at BAPS Motor Speedway, a solid car led to a 5th-place heat finish, but an early-race incident in the A-Main sent Lattomus to the back of the field. He fought forward to a 14th-place finish.

“There were still things I felt I needed to learn in the 1w,” he said.

“Restarted in the back and passed a good amount of cars. Learned a lot for my first full feature in the car.”

Back at Williams Grove on September 25th, a steering issue in qualifying and limited passing room in the heat sent Lattomus to the B-Main, which he won from the pole to transfer into the feature. Starting 19th in the A-Main, he passed five cars in the first two laps before the track rubbered up, locking the field into a single fast line and limiting further passing for the rest of the race. He finished 13th.

“I knew we had a good car from running fast laps in the heat, so the B-Main was just to try something while being out front and learn,” he said.

The stretch closed back at Lincoln Speedway on September 30th, where Lattomus qualified 4th and started on the pole of his heat race, but dropped from 1st to 4th on the opening lap before settling for a 5th-place finish. He started 14th in the A-Main and finished 17th.

“The last six weeks have been just like the rest of the season — up and down,” Lattomus said.

“We’ve had some really good moments with speed and car handling, but we just couldn’t put a night together.“
Looking Ahead

Lattomus will close out the season back in the team’s own No. 91, with stops planned for a Saturday show at Selinsgrove Speedway, the season finale at Lincoln Speedway, the final two shows of the year at BAPS Motor Speedway, and the Dirty Jersey Saturday show at Bridgeport Speedway.

Monroe Asphalt 40 Set for October 3 at Toledo Speedway

The YourBIGPlans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour will return to Toledo Speedway on Saturday, October 3, for the rescheduled Monroe Asphalt 40 as the Tour enters the final stretch of the 2026 season.

Originally scheduled for June 14, the Monroe Asphalt 40 was postponed and will now serve as the penultimate event of the 2026 YourBIGPlans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour season. With only two races remaining on the schedule, the championship battle has reached a critical point as Kody Swanson carries the points lead into Toledo with Jackson Macenko currently second in the standings.

Swanson, the reigning champion of the 78th Annual Unified Group Services Little 500 presented by Ed Martin Automotive Group, will be looking to protect his championship advantage when the green flag falls at Toledo. The Kingsburg, California driver has been a consistent presence at the front of the YourBIGPlans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour throughout the season and enters the final two races with the championship firmly within his sights.

Macenko, meanwhile, will be looking to close the 65 point gap to Swanson and put himself in position to take the championship battle down to the season finale. The Cincinnati, Ohio driver has put together a strong 2026 campaign and will have two remaining opportunities to challenge Swanson for the Tour championship, beginning with Saturday's 40-lap event at Toledo.

The driver arriving at Toledo with the most recent trip to Victory Lane is Bobby Santos III. The Franklin, Massachusetts driver captured the 11th Annual Tony Elliott Classic presented by CB Fabricating at Anderson Speedway this past Saturday, The win gives Santos another YourBIGPlans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour victory heading into the final two races of the season.

Santos will now look to carry that momentum to Toledo, where he will attempt to add another Monroe Asphalt 40 victory to his resume. Santos won the event when the Tour last competed at Toledo in 2025 and will return this October looking to defend that victory. Santos was the third different driver to win a yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour event at Toledo Speedway. Kody Swanson won in the series’ first trip to Toledo in 2023, and Tyler Roahrig went to victory lane in 2024. With three different winners in as many years, all eyes will be on the trio to see who will be the first to repeat, or to see if another new winner will emerge.

The expected field for the Monroe Asphalt 40 currently includes 16 entries, with competitors representing Indiana, Ohio, Arizona, Florida, Massachusetts, California, Michigan and North Carolina. Along with Santos, Swanson and Macenko, the entry list includes Dakoda Armstrong, Derek Bischak, Donnie Adams Jr., Olivia Shelbo, Landon Butler, Nathan Byrd, Rob Keesling, Tony McVey, Justin Harper, Tyler Roahrig, Rylan Gray, Race Bible and Brady Allum.

Several drivers will be worth watching as the field takes to the Toledo Speedway oval. New Castle, Indiana's Dakoda Armstrong returns to the Tour field, while Plymouth, Indiana's Tyler Roahrig brings another proven pavement sprint car contender into the mix. Armstrong and Roahrig will join a strong group of Indiana-based drivers that also includes Bischak, Adams, Keesling, McVey, Harper and Gray.

With the championship battle tightening and the most recent race winner returning to the track, the Monroe Asphalt 40 has plenty at stake. Swanson will be focused on maintaining his position atop the standings, while Macenko will be looking to gain valuable ground. Behind them, a talented field will be chasing the opportunity to score one of the final victories of the 2026 season.

When the YourBIGPlans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour takes the green flag at Toledo Speedway on Saturday, October 3, the focus will be on more than just the 40-lap race. With the championship entering its final two events and Santos looking to build on his recent Anderson Speedway victory, the Monroe Asphalt 40 could play a pivotal role in determining who enters the season finale with the championship in reach.

The Monroe Asphalt 40 will be part of Toledo Speedway's Stars, Stripes and Speed Fest on Saturday, October 3. Pit gates and registration open at 9:00 a.m., with the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour driver's meeting scheduled for 11:00 a.m. The Tour's engine heat will take place at 11:45 a.m., followed by the first practice session at noon and final practice at 1:50 p.m. Qualifying is scheduled for 2:30 p.m., with opening ceremonies beginning at 4:00 p.m.

The yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour Monroe Asphalt 40 feature will be part of an action-packed afternoon and evening that also includes the USAC Silver Crown Championship Rollie Beale Classic, the Folds of Honor 50 for Outlaw Super Late Models and the Monroe Asphalt Factory Stock Championship.

Post puts cap on 2026 Plymouth campaign

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 30, 2026 – The 2026 season drew to a conclusion for Randy Post and the members of his Randy Post Racing Team with the Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Cars during the ninth annual Wisconsin Sprint Car Championships at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, Sept. 26.

Post’s sixth appearance of the 2026 campaign saw the Oostburg, Wis. driver clock in 18th overall in PDTR 360 Sprint Car group qualifying with a lap of 12.855 seconds.

After finishing sixth in the third heat race, Post started third in the 12-lap B main. He maintained the third spot through lap 6 before a restart shuffled him back to sixth, which is where he finished to earn the final A-main transfer position.

Post fired off from the 20th starting spot in the 25-lap PDTR 360 Sprint Car A main and held steady throughout to post a 20th-place finish

.

“The car felt awesome for qualifying, the heat race, and B main,” Post said. “I couldn’t get the thing to turn in the feature. It was so bad I should have pulled off after the first caution. But being the last race, and the little bit we did race this year, I really wanted a full night.”

After competing in three events in 2025, Post enjoyed the opportunity to get back on the track twice as many times during the 2026 season.

“I really feel like we made a lot of progress this season,” Post said. “The driver finally found the gas pedal. There were long nights with B mains and transferring out of them and having to run all those laps. I found out how out of shape I am really quick. I am really impressed with how the season went. I can’t do it without the crew: Dad, Max, Heidi, Skyelar, Nicole, and the sponsors Luedtke Electric, Oostburg Automotive, Gundrum Trucking, Harbor Lights, PMI, and Behling’s.”

SCCT season resumes at Thunderbowl Raceway this Saturday

By Gary Thomas

Tulare, CA…The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour is set to make its annual October trip to the Central Valley for this Saturday’s KRC Safety Night at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare.

The showdown on October 3rd is the first SCCT event since wrapping up Speedweek in July and is the final chance for Sprint Car teams to get laps prior to the 32nd Trophy Cup on Halloween weekend.

“We look forward to hosting KRC Safety Night on Saturday,” track GM Josh Miller said. “Having both SCCT and NARC should make for a great night of racing at the Thunderbowl. We hope everyone will come out on October 3rd and then return later this month for the Trophy Cup.”

Completing the top 10 with the season winding down include Jake Morgan, Seth Standley, Corbin Rueschenberg, Luke Hayes and Tony Gomes.

The SCCT stop at Thunderbowl Raceway last year was captured by San Jose’s Tim Kaeding over Redding’s Max Mittry and Oakley’s Dylan Bloomfield.

Following the Tulare round this weekend the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour will then compete next at Petaluma Speedway’s Adobe Cup on October 17th.

Adult Grandstand tickets at Thunderbowl Raceway this Saturday October 3rd cost $35, while Bleacher tickets are $30. Senior and child pricing is also available. Tickets can be purchased at the gate on race day.

Five-Time USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series Champion Mike Spencer to Meet Fans Saturday

Perris, California — September 29, 2026 — Mike Spencer ranks among the most popular drivers in Perris Auto Speedway’s 30-season history. This Saturday night, October 3, Heimark Distributors Anheuser-Busch will present the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars and PASSCAR Stock Cars. Spencer will be the guest at Lance Jennings’ Heroes and Legends Meet and Greet.

The 45-year-old Cal Poly Pomona graduate began racing in the California Lightning Sprint Car Series when The PAS opened. The second-generation driver soon moved into 410 sprint cars. After driving the Hal Engstrom No. 44, Spencer was selected by car owner Ron Chaffin to pilot his famous red No. 50 in USAC/CRA competition.

Spencer, who lives in Temecula, California, with his wife, Ashley, and children, Vera and Nolan, proved to be an excellent choice for the Bruce Bromme Jr.-tuned car. On March 3, 2007, he won the USAC/CRA main event at Perris in his fourth start with the team. He went on to win three more races that season and 38 in his career, ranking second on the all-time USAC/CRA list. Twenty-four of those victories came at Perris, also ranking him second in USAC/CRA wins at the track. His PAS victories included the prestigious 2012 Budweiser Oval Nationals.

In addition to racing his way to victory lane, Spencer became one of the series’ most prolific champions. He won his first USAC/CRA title in 2008, his second year in the Chaffin car, and then reeled off five consecutive championships. At the time, that was more consecutive titles than any driver in the history of the combined USAC/CRA, SCRA, and original CRA, dating back to 1946.

After the 2017 season, Spencer hung up his helmet to spend more weekends with his family.

“Mike Spencer is one of the greatest drivers in the history of Perris Auto Speedway,” promoter Don Kazarian said on Tuesday morning. “He was a contender every time he got on the track. In addition, he was always prepared. He is a very humble and friendly man. That made him very popular with the fans. There was never any controversy or soap opera stuff around him. He was a true professional.”

“Huge thanks to Lance Jennings for putting the Meet and Greets together,” Kazarian continued. “They are very popular with the fans who get to meet their racing heroes, including legend Mike Spencer.”

From the time the gates open at 5:00 p.m. until opening ceremonies, Spencer will sign autographs and meet fans entering the track.

On the track on Saturday, Laveen, Arizona’s R.J. Johnson, the two-time defending USAC/CRA champion and 2005 series Rookie of the Year, will bring a 289-point lead over “The Big Game Hunter,” Austin Williams. After Saturday’s race, the schedule will be down to five events, including the November 7 series finale at The PAS.

In PASSCAR competition, two championships are close to being decided. In the Super Stocks, Rick Arringdale leads his good friend, “Hot Rod” John Caley of Glen Avon, and George Leventis of Rancho Palos Verdes by 14 points. Victorville’s Arringdale has two PAS titles, winning his first in 1998 and his most recent a quarter of a century ago in 2001.

In the Street Stocks, Chad Mahony of Yorba Linda is closing in on his first PAS championship. He enters Saturday’s race with a 12-point lead over Leventis. Mahony’s teammate, Morgan Rowlan of Riverside, is third.

The Factory Stock championship could go down to the November 7 season finale. Canyon Lake’s David Stites, seeking his fourth title and third consecutive championship, leads Ramona’s Cameron Broe by three points. Kris Carnish is third, just eight points behind Stites. Carnish, of Menifee, was the last driver not named Stites to win the title, taking the championship in 2023.

Spectator gates open at 5:00 p.m., with racing beginning at 7:00. Adult tickets are $30. Seniors 65 and older pay $25. Students ages 13 to 17 with school ID pay $15. Children ages 6 to 12 are $10, and children 5 and under are admitted free. Active-duty military personnel with valid ID are admitted for $5. Parking is $20 and the parking fee is payable by card only.

Advance tickets for all PAS events are available at tix.com. Fans who do not purchase tickets in advance may buy them at the ticket window on race night. These are the only two ways to purchase Perris Auto Speedway tickets. Tickets bought from other sites may be counterfeit and will be refused at the gate.

Perris Auto Speedway is located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds at 18700 Lake Perris Drive in Perris, California. For more information, visit perrisautospeedway.com or call (951) 940-0134.

Arenz basks in IRA championship glow

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 29, 2026 – As a highly driven competitor who has piled up race victories and championships in each division he has raced in, Travis Arenz entered the world of Winged 410 Sprint Car racing four years ago with the goal of becoming a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association champion.

That wish became reality at the ninth annual Wisconsin Sprint Car Championships on Saturday, Sept. 26 as the 35-year-old Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver secured his first career IRA 410 Sprint Car Series title at the place his racing career started back in 2008 – The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis.

Entering the season-ending IRA doubleheader championship weekend eight points behind Paul Nienhiser in the chase for the IRA title, Arenz opened strong by qualifying second among the 28 cars on hand in a time of 11.701 seconds at Outagamie Speedway in Seymour, Wis. on Friday, Sept. 25.

Arenz then placed third in the second heat race and fourth in the first dash to secure the seventh starting position in the 30-lap main event. He put together a solid race, moving up to fourth in the middle stages before recording a sixth-place showing.

Arenz’s top-10 finish coupled with Nienhiser’s misfortune at Outagamie gave him a 27-point cushion at the top of the IRA point standings heading into the 2026 IRA season finale at The Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday, Sept. 26.

The two-time Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car champion pocketed fast qualifier honors in the 31-car field with a quick lap of 11.318 seconds around the 76-year-old third-mile clay oval.

Following a second-place finish in the second heat race, Arenz finished fourth in the first IRA dash to claim the seventh starting position in the 30-lap season-closing A main.

Arenz had an up-and-down race, falling to 13th on lap 17 before rallying to post a ninth-place finish, which proved to be enough to earn his first IRA championship by a 10-point margin over Nienhiser.

“I didn't want to focus the last two nights of the season on the points standings,” Arenz said. “It was in the back of my mind, but my goal was to execute both nights how I did every night of the season. Focus on being smooth, consistent, and fast. Winning this title has been the goal since the first time I drove a 410. It took four years, but we learned and grew so much as a team.

“The talent throughout the IRA is exceptional, and there are so many factors that need to fall into place each week to come out on top,” he said. “This was by no means an easy feat. I am so proud of myself and my crew, and it’s an honor to bring this title home for our sponsors. Like every season, the motto is ‘smooth and consistent. Winning races helps more with paying the bills; there were times during the season where I didn't take too many risks because I didn't want to risk wrecking and having DNFs. Podium finishes were what we worked for each night.”

Arenz’s first IRA 410 Sprint Car title represents the ninth track/series championship of his 18-season career (2013 Plymouth Outlaw Compact 4-Cylinder, 2016 141 Speedway Northern Sport Mod, 2021-2022 Plymouth 360 Sprint Car, 2021-2022 Midwest Sprint Car Association).

“After I was officially named IRA champion, we all kept looking at each other, asking, ‘Now what? What should we do now?’” he said. “I’ll have to figure that out over the off-season.”

The 2026 Travis Arenz Motorsports sponsorship partners include Service One Transportation Inc., Don and Lynn Kiel, Professional Plating Inc., Pfeffer Trucking, Oostburg Concrete, Wittkopf Family Funeral Homes, Carbliss, PalletWorks, Oostburg State Bank, Sonntag Plumbing, Jensen Sales and Service, Fastenal, Roth’s Auto Restoration, Lake Auto Glass, Arenz Auto Detailing, Hair Fellers Barbershop, and Duehring Tax Service.

Chance Grasty Claims Top Honors at Fall Nationals

PETERSEN MEDIA- For the second time in 2026 Chance Grasty parked in victory lane at Silver Dollar Speedway. Earlier this year it was in NARC action, and on Saturday night Grasty picked up his first career Fall Nationals triumph which was also the first Fall Nationals win for his F&F Racing team.

“It really was a great weekend for our team, and I am so happy to get this group back in victory lane,” Chance Grasty said. “We were really fast both nights, but we did tear some equipment up on Friday night, so I want to thank my team and all of our partners for their hard work all weekend.”

Friday night action got underway with Grasty timing the Bushey Financial Services/C&H Motor Parts/Sierra Single Ply Roofing backed No. x1 entry in fastest in his qualifying flight.

Needing to run in the Top-5 in his heat to qualify for the redraw, Grasty flexed some muscle as he worked his way to a second-place finish and went on to pull the three pill.

Lining up third in the feature, Grasty had a great start to the feature event. Closing in to make a bid for the lead on the fifth lap, the leader made contact with a slower car and Grasty also got in on the action and endured top wing damage as well as a smashed in header.

Able to keep his entry under power and avoid the work area, Grasty did what he could for the rest of the race with a battered car. Running in the second position as the action resumed, Grasty did all he could to maintain the position but ultimately slipped back to a third-place finish.

Saturday night saw Grasty make the most of an unfavorable pill draw as he was the last car to qualify and still ended up laying down the second fastest lap in his group.

By way of his third-place finish in heat race action, Grasty moved into the Dash where a second-place finish lined him up on the front row alongside Corbin Reuschenberg.

Getting the jump when the race went green, Grasty was very strong out front as he quickly reached the back of the pack. While battling in heavy traffic, Grasty slipped back to second on the 18th lap before the caution flag flew a lap later and took the leaders out of traffic.

Back underway, Grasty was able to get his momentum built up and reclaimed the top spot from Shane Golobic on the 21stlap and never looked back. Pulling away from the field in the final 14 laps, Grasty was able to cruise to his third win of the season and claim his first Fall Nationals.

“I was able to get through traffic really well on Saturday for the most part, but I did get caught in a bad spot right around the halfway point and lost the lead,” Grasty said. “Luckily the yellow came out a lap or two later and I was able to get back out front in clean air.”

F&F Racing would like to thank Bushey Financial Services, C&H Motor Parts, Sierra Single Ply Roofing, Triple X Race Co., Wrayvon, CRV Carbon Solutions, Econo Lube ‘N’ Tune, XC Gear, All Pro Heads, Engler, and Don Ott Racing Engines for their support.

Paul Nienhiser 3rd in IRA Finale and Claims Rookie of the Year Honors

PETERSEN MEDIA: Heading into the final IRA weekend of the year with a slim eight point lead in the season long championship, a tough Friday night and a valiant effort on Saturday night saw Nienhiser come up just 10 digits shy of the title, but still earned Rookie of the Year honors.

“I really want to thank Scott, Zoom, and all of my guys for all their hard work over the weekend, as well as their hard work getting us ready inside the shop,” Paul Nienhiser said. “I haven’t been much help as of late with work being extremely busy, but these guys continued to bust their tails for me.”

Checking in at Outagamie Speedway on Friday night to kick off the final IRA weekend, Nienhiser timed the AGRI-YIELD/CAM2 Lubricants/Midland Performance Inc. backed No. 9x in 12th fastest in time trials before racing to a win in his heat race.

Moving into Dash No. 2, the Chapin, IL driver finished second, and found himself on the outside of the second row for the 30-lap feature event.

Settling into fourth when the race came to life, Nienhiser was doing a good job of maintaining his position inside the Top-Five and not pushing the issue as he had the big picture in mind.

Things took a turn on the 18th lap when debris got into the engine compartment and knocked a fuel nozzle line off of his motor, which turned the championship chase upside down as he was forced into the work area.

With his team able to make the repair and send him back out, Nienhiser noticed his brakes starting to fade as he caught up to the rear of the field. Making the decision to stay out and try and pick up as many points as possible, Nienhiser found himself making contact with the wall and getting upside down on the 22nd lap as his night came to a close, and he headed into Saturday’s finale in a hole.

“Friday night, things were going okay, and then they weren’t,” Nienhiser said. “We just got in a couple of unfortunate spots which really put us in a tough spot for Saturday.”

Signing in at Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday night, Nienhiser timed in 13th fastest in time trials, which placed him in the third row of his heat race. Advancing from fifth to third in his heat, Nienhiser lined up in the 11th starting position for the final IRA feature of the year.

With a very good car under him, Nienhiser was able to put his mount anywhere on the track as he charged his way forward. Down 39 points heading into the feature, Nienhiser knew each spot was important as he soon found himself into the Top-Five. Able to work his way into third by the race’s conclusion he came up just 10 points short of the title, but was still named the series’ Rookie of the Year.

“Obviously you look at Friday and say ‘what if’, but in reality, we had plenty of opportunities over the summer with some stuff out of our control,” Nienhiser added. “I absolutely have nothing to hang my head about, and am really happy to earn ROY honors, and still finish second in points. Again, a big thank you to my guys for all of their work this year. They made my part easy as they worked tirelessly week in and week out.”

Nienhiser would like to thank AGRI-YIELD, CAM2 Lubricants, Midland Performance Inc., MB Heating & Cooling Inc., Buffalo Wild Wings, T&K Tree Services, Morrow Brothers Ford Inc., American Rental Center, Signature Signs, The ID | SP, Bradshaw Custom Pumping, Wessler Bros. Agency Inc., Haverfield Construction-Concrete, Steve’s Towing, Dropped Mobile, Mason Sound, AB&C Moving, Bayer Crop Science, Dekalb/Asgrow, Engler Machine and Tool, Rider Racing Engines, K1 Race Gear, and Super Shox for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races-28, Wins-9, Top 5’s-16, Top 10’s-33

ON TAP: Nienhiser is scheduled for one final race in 2026 this Friday night at Jacksonville Speedway.

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Post Top Five During Challenging Week in California

Inside Line Promotions – VENTURA, Calif. (Sept. 29, 2026) – Big Game Motorsports highlighted a long week in California with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series by recording a top-five finish a week ago Tuesday at Kings Speedway.

David Gravel qualified fifth quickest, won a heat race, placed second in the dash and ended fourth in the main event at the oval in Hanford, marking the team’s 43rd top-five outing of the season.

“We qualified pretty good and went out at the right time,” he said. “We did good there and in the heat race. The dash was decent. In the A Main, we started second and got settled in there. I got passed and was running third when I had a really bad restart where I got messed up in the cushion. I lost a position and got in line and ran fourth. It was a cowboy-up track and I wasn’t willing to take the risks that some of the other guys were.”

Three nights later, the team ventured to Bakersfield Speedway at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in Bakersfield. Gravel timed in ninth quickest before he placed fourth in a heat race. He was battling for a top 10 when the magneto box failed, bringing him to a stop on the track. The team got it switched in the work area and Gravel restarted at the back of the pack. He rallied to record a 15th-place result.

“That was just a bad night in general,” he said. “We weren’t very good from hot laps to qualifying to the heat race. We changed some stuff for the feature. The mag box was the icing on the cake. We were lucky Buddy (Kofoid) had issues, too, to save a lot of points we would have lost.”

The California Swing wrapped up on Saturday at Ventura Raceway, where Gravel was ninth quickest in qualifying, fourth in a heat race and ninth in the main event.

“We hot lapped okay and qualified okay,” he said. “We didn’t heat race very well and lost third on the start. In the feature, we started 12th and I felt decent. We had some untimely yellows. I think realistically we could have ran as high as sixth or seventh potentially. Just a couple of things didn’t go my way and it was just an okay night.”

Gravel maintains a 120-point lead in the World of Outlaws championship standings heading into the J&S Classics National Open this Friday and Saturday at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pa. The team has two wins and four podiums in four feature starts at the track this season.

“We’ve been very, very good at Williams Grove this year,” he said. “I’m looking forward to getting back there and racing for some good money.”

Mallett Rallies for Top 10 Following Flat Tire During King of the Ditch

Inside Line Promotions – WEST MEMPHIS, Ark. (Sept. 29, 2026) – Jordon Mallett rebounded for a top-10 result last Saturday at Riverside International Speedway during the King of the Ditch.

Mallett and car owner A.G. Rains were in contention for the win during the marquee event before a flat right rear tire derailed the run.

“We were good all night,” he said. “We were just edged out of quick time and had a fast, comfortable race car. That put us on the pole of a heat race. The inside line wasn’t ideal and we had to win the heat race to get into the dash. Fortunately, we did that.”

A third-place result in the dash followed the heat race victory.

“We started third in the dash and had a car fall out so that moved us to the outside of the front row,” he said. “We fell back to third and ran third, knowing I wanted to start on the inside for feature.

“We knew we’d have to bide our time the first half of the feature until we burned our fuel off. We were doing just that, riding in third. We cut a tire down and it was getting soft on the right rear about a quarter of the way through the race. A caution came out and it went completely down. We went to the work area and changed the tire. We had to go to the rear of the field and came back to ninth. When we shoved back off, I was confident, but they made us restart at the tail of the field even though we’d lapped up to around 12th. The track was ultra-hard to pass on and that flat tire took our chance away to be a contender.”

The rally to ninth place marked Mallett’s 16th top-10 result in his 20th start this season.

“It was a frustrating finish,” he said. “We had done what we set out to do. We brought a package we wanted to try and it worked how we wanted. We put ourselves in position, but it just wasn’t meant to be.”

QUICK RESULTS –

Sept. 19 – Riverside International Speedway in West Memphis, Ark. – Heat race: 1 (1); Dash: 3 (3); Feature: 9 (3).

SEASON STATS –

20 races, 1 win, 12 top fives, 16 top 10s, 17 top 15s, 20 top 20s

Pokorski wrap 2026 season with IRA twin bill

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 29, 2026 – Alex Pokorski capped the 2026 season behind the wheel of his No. 4 GR8 Team car during championship weekend with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series Friday, Sept. 25 at Outagamie Speedway in Seymour, Wis., and Saturday, Sept. 26 at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis.

The seventh-year Sprint Car competitor fired up the weekend by qualifying seventh in the 28-car field with a lap of 11.839 seconds at Outagamie Speedway on Friday. After placing second in the first IRA heat race, Pokorski secured his first IRA dash appearance of the 2026 season.

After placing fifth in the second dash, the West Bend, Wis. native rolled off 10th in the 30-lap main event. He advanced up to eighth on lap 19 before falling back a few spots in the closing laps to earn a 13th-place showing.

On Saturday, the team headed to The Plymouth Dirt for the 2026 season-ending Wisconsin Sprint Car Championships with the IRA, where Pokorski qualified 17th among the 31 entries with a lap of 11.719 seconds.

A sixth-place showing in the second heat race placed Pokorski in the 17th starting position. After an opening-lap incident sent him to the work area, Pokorski restarted 20th before coming home with an 18th-place finish.

“We had a good night at Outagamie, but we struggled a bit at Plymouth,” Pokorski said. “I wish we could’ve ended a little better, but racing doesn't always go the way you want it to.”

After racing for car owner Spyder Akright from 2022 through 2025, Pokorski teamed up with his father, Paul, to debut a new family operation in 2026 along with help from Russ Wetenkamp and his GR8 Team crew.

“We had a number of new experiences this season, racing with High Limit and the World of Outlaws, going to new tracks, and owning our own car again,” Pokorski said. “I also had fun racing with our joint GR8 team.”

ESS Points Finale This Friday at Fulton Speedway
By Curtis Berleue (Fulton, NY) | A champion is set to be decided this weekend for the Empire Super Sprints at the Fulton Speedway. A long season culminates with the points finale this Friday as part of the Outlaw 200 weekend, with the winner of the event receiving $2,000.
Zach Sobotka heads into the event with the point lead over Jordan Poirier. The margin between Sobotka and the defending champion is 82 points. While the two are identical in top five finishes, Sobotka’s margin comes from three wins versus Poirier’s winless season thus far, and 19 top tens versus Poirier’s 17 top ten finishes.
Behind the lead duo, Davie Franek sits third in points just 31 markers back, with already-crowned 2026 Transport Benoit Lafleur Canada Tour champion Jordan Thomas in fourth. Matt Tanner rounds out the top five.
In the only stop at the Fulton Speedway so far this season it was Larry Wight in victory lane. With two rain outs this season at the Oswego County oval, it is unusual for the tour to have only made one appearance at the track by the season ending event.
Fulton has been the host of 94 Empire Super Sprints events, dating back to August of 1983. In those 94 events, there have been 35 different drivers to earn an A-Main win. Of the top three in points, just Davie Franek (2022, 2024) and Jordan Poirier (2018) have won at the highbanks.
Admission prices and gate times for Friday’s event, along with a nightly schedule of events can be found on both the Fulton Speedway website and social media pages, along with the Empire Super Sprints social media pages. In the event of weather on Friday, Saturday is a listed rain date for the season points finale.
For the latest news, information, and schedule updates regarding the Empire Super Sprints be sure to check the series website (www.EmpireSuperSprints.com) and follow along on Facebook (Empire Super Sprints), X (@ESSprints) and Instagram (@empiresupersprints).

Andy Forsberg Wins 200th Career 360ci Race at Fall Nationals Opener

PETERSEN MEDIA: Andy Forsberg checked another milestone off on Friday night during the opening night of the Fall Nationals as he scored his 9th win of the season which also marked his 200th career 360ci feature event win.

“Friday night we were really good from start to finish,” Andy Forsberg said. “The track stayed heavy and had some character which was right up my alley.”

With 45 cars checked into the pit area to kick the final weekend of the year off in Chico, CA, Forsberg timed in sixth fastest in qualifying time trials.

Lining the Pacific Highway Rentals/Wilkie Masonry/Western Traffic Supply backed No. 92 up on the front row of his heat race, Forsberg powered into the lead when the green flag was displayed. Leading all eight laps, the Auburn, CA driver qualified for the redraw, where a two placed him on the front row of the 30-lap finale.

When the race finally came to life after some early issues, Forsberg settled into second as he chased after early leader, Koa Crane. With the track extremely fast on Friday night, the leaders found the rear of the field in just four laps which was advantageous to Forsberg as he was able to pounce and take the race lead on lap five.

Once out in front, Forsberg was able to keep the likes of Shane Golobic and Chance Grasty at bay as he raced his way to his ninth victory of the season, and 200th overall in 360 competition.

Back in action on Saturday night, Forsberg continued to show a ton of speed as he bested the field of 41 in time trials and earned quick time honors.

Heading into heat race action, Forsberg’s night changed drastically as he got on the binders in turns one and two on the opening lap and it resulted in him getting upside down.

With enough damage to keep him from restarting his heat, Forsberg’s team began to make repairs as they were slated to start on the front row of the night’s “B” main.

Help from numerous other teams saw the PHR entry make its way trackside for the ‘B’, where Forsberg went on to pick up the win and keep his night alive as he transferred into the 35-lap Fall Nationals feature event.

Rolling off the starting grid from 20th, passing was tricky at times though he was able to make up ground in the fast-paced feature.

Nearing the Top-10, Forsberg closed the Silver Dollar Speedway season out with a 13th place finish.

“Saturday night I was really happy with how the night started,” Forsberg said. “Unfortunately, I was in a bad spot in our heat race, and when I checked up for the front row, I got sucked into the cushion and flipped. Luckily my team, and a few members from other teams were able to make a lot of repairs and we won the “B” before finishing 13th in the feature event.”

Andy Forsberg and PHR Racing would like to thank Pacific Highway Rentals, Wilkie Masonry, Western Traffic Supply, PitStopUSA, Red Line Oil, FK Rod Ends, Autism Awareness, Parking and Transportation Group, MCK, 1st Vanguard, Highway Specialty Co., and KBJ Catering for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races- 40, Wins-9, Top 5’s-22, Top 10’s-27

ON TAP: The PHR team will be in action on Saturday night with NARC in Tulare, CA with Dylan Bloomfield handling the driving duties. Forsberg will return to the seat on October 17th at Petaluma Speedway.

Bloomfield Surges To Second at Fall Nationals

PETERSEN MEDIA- Fresh off of a tough weekend with the World of Outlaws, Dylan Bloomfield returned to the seat of the C&M Motorsports No. 7c over the weekend for the Fall Nationals in Chico, CA where he powered his way to a second-place finish on Saturday night.

“It was a pretty good weekend for us as a team,” Dylan Bloomfield said. “Friday night we were fast, but we had a parts failure with our nose wing and still managed to pass a few cars with a bungeed down nose wing.”

With 45 cars checked in for battle on Friday night, Bloomfield timed the Lund Construction/Anrak/Sam Rhodes backed No. 7c in third fastest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, the Discovery Bay, CA pilot continued to flex his muscle as he jumped out into the lead, and never looked back. Scoring the win, Bloomfield was locked into both the opening night feature event, as well as the nightly redraw.

Having poor luck during his draw, the ‘eight’ placed him on the outside of the fourth row on a very fast and heavy racing surface. When the race came to life, Bloomfield settled into eighth as the field quickly reached the back of the pack.

Moving into seventh on a lap five restart, Bloomfield looked to make a move into sixth on the sixth lap when he was forced to slow with his nose wing sitting vertical on his car.

Making a quick trip to the work area, the only quick solution was bungee cording the wing down, so with a pair of bungees attached, Bloomfield was back on his way. Restarting in 21st, Bloomfield quickly was up into 16th in just four laps and digging for more.

Racing through the Top-15, Bloomfield took over the 13th position on the 26th lap, which is where he went on to finish.

Back in action for the Fall Nationals finale on Saturday night, Bloomfield timed in seventh quickest in his flight with 41 cars piled into the pit area. Lining up third in his heat race, Bloomfield was able to make a couple of swift moves to take over the race lead.

Picking up the win, Bloomfield locked himself into the Dash where his fifth-place finish placed him in the third row for the 35-lap finale.

Working into fourth when the race came to life, he ran steadily inside the Top-5 during a 19 lap green flag run. With the field bunched back up and out of traffic for the restart, Bloomfield put his right rear up on the cushion and began to close in on the top-three. Moving into second on the 23rd lap, he did what he could to reel in race leader, Chance Grasty, but was unable to get to him as he capped the night off with a runner up finish.

“It felt great battling some really fast racecars all weekend long,” Bloomfield added. “Cody and Bobby did a great job with the car all weekend long, and it was a ton of fun working with everyone associated with the C&M Motorsports team. They are a fun group to race with.”

The C&M Motorsports team would like to thank NOS Energy Drink, Lund Construction, Anrak, Sam Rhodes, MatriScope, Econo Lube-n-Tune, Alturas Tires, Swartz Diesel, Kings Meats, American Paving Systems, PT Shocks, and RJM Builders and all of their product sponsors for their continued support.

ON TAP: The C&M Motorsports team returns to action this Saturday night with Colby Copeland as they head to the Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, CA.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-34, Wins-2, Top 5’s-15, Top 10’s-18

Landon Brooks Scores Fifth and Sixth Place Finishes During Fall Nationals Weekend

PETERSEN MEDIA: Landon Brooks and the Hamilton Racing with Tiner Hirst Ent. team were in action over the weekend at Silver Dollar Speedway for the Fall Nationals where Brooks finished sixth on Friday night before a fifth place run to close the weekend out on Saturday.

“Our weekend at the Fall Nationals went pretty well overall,” Landon Brooks said. “For whatever reason, our qualifying struggles continue but we can race well and we were able to pass cars on a track that was narrow and fast both nights.”

Kicking Fall Nationals weekend off on Friday night, Brooks timed the Lippert Construction/THE/Mozingo Construction backed No. 21L entry in 12th fastest in his flight with 45 cars checked into the pit area.

Lining up in the third row of his heat race, the Rio Oso, CA driver had a very strong heat race as he powered his way to a third-place finish which moved him into the opening night feature event and placed him in the 13th starting spot.

With the track staying fast and narrow through the night, Brooks was able to do what many struggled to do as he began passing cars as the race came to life. Up into ninth on the third lap, Brooks used a restart on lap five to move into eighth.

Racing into seventh on the seventh lap, Brooks moved into sixth on the 10th lap as the leaders raced in heavy traffic. Looking for a spot in the Top-10, Brooks battled with Tanner Carrick and Justin Sanders in the final laps of the feature, but when the checkered flew he crossed the finish line in sixth.

Back in action on Saturday night for the Fall Nationals finale, Brooks timed in eighth fastest despite feeling something go awry under the hood of his car which prompted an engine change.

Able to make the swap before his heat race, Brooks picked up a fourth-place finish which then put him in the 15th starting position for the 35-lap A Main event.

Just as he did on Friday night, Brooks began working his way forward as soon as the action came to life. Jumping into 13th on the opening lap, Brooks continued to forge ahead as he raced into the Top-10 on the fourth lap.

Once he got into seventh on the 11th lap, he settled in as the next eight laps clicked off until the first stoppage of the night came on the 19th lap.

Jumping into sixth on the restart, Brooks moved into fifth on the 22nd lap as he chased after fourth running Austin Wood.

Battling with Wood for the final four laps of the race, Brooks capped the weekend off with a fifth-place finish.

“I really want to thank the Hamilton family, as well as my Tiner Hirst Ent guys for the great car we had in both features,” Brooks noted. “We were able to pass a lot of cars and come away with a couple of good finishes.”

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing would like to thank Lippert Construction, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Mozingo Construction, Dan Ewart Sales, Clow Valve, Vinyltech PVC Pipe, Teichert Construction, Advanced Drainage Systems, B Scadden Designs, SIP, North Bay Waterworks, Custom Pipe & Fabrication, Star Pipe Products, Westlake Pipe & Fittings, Eagle Chassis, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc. HRP, Sander Engineering, K1 Racegear, Kevin Sharrah Designs, Petersen Media, Met Tec Titanium, Slade Shocks, Wilwood Disc Brakes, System 1 Pro Ignition, and ZMax for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-38, Wins- 2, Top 5’s- 15, Top 10’s- 29

ON TAP: Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing begin the final stretch of the season with NARC this Saturday night in Tulare, CA.

Fifth Place Finish Highlights Fall Nationals Weekend for Tanner Carrick

PETERSEN MEDIA: Spending the weekend in Chico, CA for the Fall Nationals, Tanner Carrick battled for a fifth-place finish on Friday night before finishing 9th during Saturday night’s finale.

“We had a really good car both nights,” Tanner Carrick said. “We battled hard on Friday with some good cars and ran in the Top-Five, and on Saturday I made a mistake on the last lap of my heat that really hurt us with how the track was.”

Timing his CVC/Cemex/Interstate Oil backed No. 83T entry in second fastest in his qualifying flight on Saturday night, the Lincoln, CA driver just needed to transfer through his heat race to make the redraw, which he was able to do.

Finishing fifth in heat race competition, Carrick locked himself into the nightly redraw where the four put him in the second row of the 30-lap ‘A’.

On a very fast surface, Carrick slipped back to sixth at the start of the race, and then used a lap five restart to move into the Top-5.

Once into fifth, Carrick hooked up in a very entertaining battle with Justin Sanders and Chance Grasty as they jockeyed for third, fourth, and fifth. Despite the narrow conditions, the trio put on quite a show though Carrick ended up on the short end of the stick as he remained in fifth as the trio began to separate in dense traffic.

Staying firmly inside the Top-5, Carrick was able to hold his position in the final laps and score a fifth-place finish to wrap up the Fall Nationals opener.

Returning to action at Silver Dollar Speedway on Saturday night for one final event at the track in 2026, Carrick again got off to a hot start as he timed in third fastest in time trials.

Heading into his heat race, Carrick found himself in the second position, but a miscue on the race’s final lap saw him hang his right-rear over the edge of the speedway and slip back to finish fourth.

With the fourth-place finish, Carrick was mired deep in the field for the feature as he lined up 12th and picked up a couple of spots during the 35-lapper to finish inside the Top-10 with a ninth-place finish.

“I really want to thank Clark and the guys for a great car all weekend,” Carrick said. “I hate that I made that mistake in our heat race because every spot counted with how the surface ended up for the ‘A’.”

Tanner Carrick would like to thank CVC, Cemex, Interstate Oil, D.R. Horton, Conti, Harris and Sloan, Hanson Truss, TC Guide Service, Eddie’s Lincoln Auto Body, Simpson Strong-Tie, A&A Concrete Supply, Kaeding Performance, and Arai for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts: 55, Wins: 1, Top 5’s: 14, Top 10’s: 32

ON TAP: Tanner Carrick will be idle this coming weekend and is then slated to return to action when NARC invades Placerville Speedway on October 10th.

Reutzel fourth in Eldora’s 4-Crown Nationals finale; Lakeside and Texas to conclude High Limit campaign

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (September 28, 2026) - Three nights of competition resulted in three straight near-top-ten performances for Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR) and Aaron Reutzel, highlighting their weekend slate with a top-five outcome in Eldora Speedway’s 4-Crown Nationals finale on Saturday, September 26. Reutzel, who is currently third in the High Limit Racing national championship standings, finished fourth in his top-five appearance, leading a handful of circuits in the process before surrendering the lead on lap 13.

Despite the fact, the 11th-place result was impressive in its own right - charging ahead from 22nd on the grid.

“Overall, a solid weekend for our team. We needed a little bit more out of our performances if we want to be in contention for a championship, but there’s a lot of racing left…a lot can happen,” Ryan Wyant, RSR Team Manager, stated. “We’re going to take a weekend off and regroup. We’ll be ready for Kansas City and Texas.”

GREENFIELD, Ind. (September 28, 2026) - Emerson Axsom and Klaasmeyer Petry Motorsports (KPM) enjoyed their West Coast tour through sunny California, and when the weekend dust finally settled, the Greenfield, Indiana, team had something to be proud of, translating three straight World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series starts into three straight top-ten performances, the best equalling a top-five in Ventura Raceway’s inaugural “Battle at the Beach” on Saturday, September 26.

Axsom, a 2026 World of Outlaws Rookie of the Year contender, finished fourth in his Ventura, California, top-five outcome, leading a lap in the process before settling just off the podium.

Klaasmeyer Petry Motorsports activated their final California stretch with a midweek visit to Kings Speedway in Hanford, California, on Tuesday, September 22.

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (September 28, 2026) - St. Helena, California’s Rico Abreu is on pace to conclude his 2026 campaign with a second consecutive High Limit Racing championship, and with only four starts remaining on the Series calendar, the initial statement is not far - literally - from the truth.

Abreu, the ace of Tony Stewart’s Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing, Carquest, Curb Records, Sugarbee Apples, Waste Connections, Arc Zone, Martin One Source, Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, No. 24 sprint car, concluded his recent weekend of competition with three straight top-ten achievements, one of which a $15,000 victory in Eldora Speedway’s 4-Crown Nationals finale on Saturday, September 26. The triumph, the 33rd of Abreu’s High Limit Racing career, was secured from the pole position, using the victory to simultaneously propel his 4-Crown Nationals win count to six - now at three with High Limit and his first for Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing. Impressive enough, Abreu’s overall Eldora win count now stands at 15.

In addition, Abreu, who holds the High Limit Racing championship lead by more than 100 markers, finished seventh in the 4-Crown Nationals lid-lifter on Friday, September 25, as well as eighth in Kokomo Speedway’s Sunday Funday program on Sunday, September 27.

Whittall set to battle Outlaws in Williams Grove Speedway National Open

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

VINCENTOWN, N.J. (September 28, 2026) - It’s the event everyone wants to win, and for Vincentown, New Jersey’s Justin Whittall, the goal remains the same, set to take on the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series in Williams Grove Speedway’s annual National Open on Friday and Saturday, October 2-3.

Whittall, a former Port Royal Speedway track champion as well as recent PA Posse 410 Sprint Series winner, will roll into the world-famous paperclip with high hopes and much to prove, eager to outdo many of the nation’s best for a chance at $75,000.

“We’re excited…kinda tough to think it’s already here,” Whittall, powered by RBH Group, Turret Engineering, JG Kronenberger Fine Jewelry, Mid-Atlantic Transport, Pandemonium Bar & Grill, Pioneer Auto Body, Worldwide Bearings, Enterprise, and Milky Way Restaurant, said. “It’s been a wild season, for sure.

SWANSON TAKES TOP SPOT IN MOST RECENT PAVEMENT RANKINGS

September 27, 2026 – Anderson, Indiana - The third release of the 2026 National Pavement Sprint Car Rankings was announced today. Kody Swanson has emerged as the new top ranked driver with an advantage of only a half point.

Swanson has unseated Willison temporarily for the top spot on the heels of five top two finishes in his last six starts. Three of those runner-up finishes occurred with the Race for the Million series. His lone non-runner-up result was a victory in the 500 Sprint Car Tour sanctioned Joe James / Pat O’Connor Memorial at Salem, Indiana August 15.

Canadian Aaron Willison continues his march towards a career best season. He already has thirteen total feature victories in 2026. This is the most in North America and a personal best. Since the last rankings he has won such prestigious events as the Pink Lady Classic, “Poison Lil” Classic, and the Neil Montgomery Memorial among others. He also sealed the Race for the Million championship.

Bobby Santos III continues to hold the third spot due to consistency. He has won as recently as this weekend with the 500 Sprint Car Tour at Anderson Speedway in the Tony Elliott Classic. He also sealed the MSR 410 Pavement Winged Warriors championship despite an abbreviated season for the Midwest based winged 410 series, his first with the series.

Seventeen-year-old Florida sensation Colton Bettis sits in fourth place in the newly released rankings. Despite rarely traveling outside of the Southeast this season, he is putting together a strong season. He scored a podium finish in the second Berlin Raceway RFTM feature event on July 25. He is tied for second with the second most wins in North America with seven thus far in the season.

Jake Trainor and Jo Jo Helberg have moved into the top fifteen of this year’s rankings for the first time due to both winning RFTM events at Berlin on July 25.

Two Canadians find themselves ranked in the most recent rankings. Willison joins fellow British Columbia resident Jeff Montgomery as the only two Canadians in the top fifteen.

Only ten total pavement sprint car races remain on the 2026 racing calendar. It would appear Swanson may have the edge as he has five more events on his calendar. But Willison would have to be the favorite to win the Open Wheel Showdown wing portion of the event based on his success this season.

If Willison wants to increase his odds of cementing himself as the 2026 top ranked driver, he must consider entering the non-winged portion of Open Wheel Showdown and convincing his Florida car owner Ken Statham to participate in the final two BG Products Southern Sprint Car Shootout Series events. These extra events could give him the push he needs to keep Swanson at bay and retake the top spot.

The final edition of the 2026 National Pavement Sprint Car Rankings will be released shortly after the final (November 14) event of the season.

NATIONAL PAVEMENT SPRNT CAR RANKING #3 (As of 9/27/26)

Kody Swanson – 60
Aaron Willison – 59.5
Bobby Santos III – 37
Colton Bettis – 24.5
Evan Margeson – 19
CJ Leary – 17
Dakoda Armstrong – 15

Eddie Tafoya Jr. Wraps Up Midwest Portion of His Season at Eldora Speedway This Week

Chino Hills, CA — September 22, 2026 — Southern California racing veteran Eddie Tafoya Jr. will wrap up the Midwest portion of his racing season this Thursday and Saturday, September 24th and 26th, at the 44th Annual USAC Four Crown Nationals at Ohio’s Eldora Speedway. The prestigious event will mark Tafoya’s first appearance at the famous high-banked half-mile since 2023.

After a fifth-place finish in the August 15th USAC/CRA race at Perris Auto Speedway, Tafoya, who lives in Chino Hills, California, has confined his racing to the Midwest and East. Following three nights at Indiana’s Kokomo Speedway Smackdown, the 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year headed to Western Pennsylvania’s Lernerville Speedway for the AMSOIL USAC National Sprint Cars Commonwealth Clash.

Scheduled as a two-night affair, Tafoya, the 2018 Perris Auto Speedway Young Guns champion, was fast right out of the box in his first appearance at the track near Pittsburgh. He was sixth fastest in hot laps and qualified 10th fastest among the 24 cars on hand.

After a sixth-place finish in his heat race, Tafoya and the eye-catching #51T started on the outside of the third row in sixth for the 25-lap main event. He was racing around the top 10 when a rear end broke near the halfway mark, saddling him with a frustrating 21st-place finish.

Unfortunately, rain was the big winner on the second night in the Keystone State, and the race was canceled.

“Had some good speed over the weekend in Pennsylvania at the Lernerville Speedway with USAC Racing,” Tafoya told his Facebook fans. “Went sixth quick in hot laps, 10th in qualifying and was battling around the top 10 before breaking a rear end around halfway. We are prepped and ready for Eldora Speedway USA.”

Tafoya flew back to the Midwest for this week’s races at Eldora. The last time he competed on the lightning-fast half-mile was for a pair of races in May 2023. He qualified for the main event both nights, finishing 19th and 20th.

Tafoya has kept the #51T in Indiana and has been flying back and forth since the middle of August. After Saturday’s finale at Eldora, he will hit the road and drive the rig back west to conclude his 2026 season.

For those who want to see Tafoya in action at Eldora, both nights will be streamed live in their entirety on FloRacing.

Eddie Tafoya can be followed on Instagram at eddietafoya51.

Team Tafoya Racing would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, BR Motorsports, King Racing Products, Gasper Transportation, CMI Precision Machining, Owen’s Insurance Services, Keen Concrete, DRC Chassis, and Rider Racing Engines for their continued support of the 2025 season. If you would like to join forces with the team for another fun and exciting year of racing in 2026, please contact Tafoya at Eddie Tafoya Jr. at (909) 393-3999 or mailto:teamtafoya@aol.com

HERRICK, GRAVES TO BATTLE FOR MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP ADVANTAGE AT THE DIRT TRACK AT GENESEE SATURDAY

Graves and Ruggles Separated by Seven Points for DisBatch-Stirling Championship

Press Release By: Marty Czekala – September 23, 2026

A huge advantage is on the line for the A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints when the series returns to The Dirt Track at Genesee for the first time in over two years.

Dalton Herrick is 43 points ahead of Tyler Graves. Whoever leaves Saturday night with the points lead will have a huge championship advantage and would only need to attend Friday or Saturday at the Hoag Memorial to receive 75 show-up points and clinch the championship.

In the DisBatch Brewing Company-Stirling Lubricants Challenge, Graves and Darryl Ruggles remain close, separated by seven points. Herrick also is mathematically eligible for the title at 52 points behind Graves.

This is only the third time CRSA has ever run a feature at the Genesee County Fairgrounds. The first was the 2023 season finale, when Herrick won the A-Main. The last was July 6, 2024, when Adam DePuy won his first career 305 Sprint Car feature.

Here’s a look at what’s on tap.

Last Week: CRSA visited Land of Legends Raceway during Gerald Haers Memorial weekend last Friday night for a feature that had race of the year written all over it.

Timmy Lotz led early, but lost the lead with more than 10 laps to go to Darryl Ruggles and Tyler Graves. He then came back after a late-race restart to score his first career CRSA Sprints victory.

On the final restart with six laps to go, Ruggles kept the lead while Lotz immediately passed Graves for second. With five laps to go, Lotz caught the No. 48JR and raced side by side for two laps before clearing him with a pass on the bottom into turn three and pulling away.

“I thought I wasn’t going to get it this year,” said Lotz. “Worked hard for it. Darryl didn’t make it easy.”

Dillon Paddock came through the field late to finish second while Ruggles finished third.

Championship Scenarios: With Tyler Graves’ fourth-place finish compared to Dalton Herrick’s sixth, and combined with heat points, the margin is now 43.

Herrick basically controls his own destiny for the major championship advantage. If the gap does not change in heats, a 22nd-place finish or better will clinch it.

The advantage could be clinched through heat counts. If a full field is in attendance, six heat points would clinch it immediately.

For Graves to have a shot, a couple of things must go his way if the gap stays at 43. First, at least 23 cars must be here, or there is virtually no shot before heats. Then he must improve, hold, or lose at most one point before the feature.

A better scenario will be given after heats, but Graves is basically in a must-win situation while Herrick must finish 23rd or 24th for the No. 25G to clinch.

As for the DisBatch-Stirling Challenge, if the gap remains at seven going into the feature, a Graves podium would clinch it. A Ruggles win and fourth would also clinch it.

Herrick is mathematically eligible, but he would need four to five heat points to have a chance going into the feature.

Rest of Standings: In the overall standings, Timmy Lotz is third (-189), Jerry Sehn Jr. fourth (-369), Maverick Coffey fifth (-438), Dustin Sehn sixth (-468), Johnny Scarborough seventh (-573), Nick Webb eighth (-738), Paul Colagiovanni Sr. ninth (-797), Bailey Boyd 10th (-847), Kirsten Dombroski 11th (-977) and Zach Sobotka 12th (-1162).

In the DisBatch Brewing Company-Stirling Lubricants Challenge, Lotz is fourth (-63), Scarborough fifth (-66), Dan Craun sixth (-88), Alysha Bay seventh (-108), Dalton Martin eighth (-115), Coffey ninth (-125) and Dillon Paddock 10th (-163).

As mentioned earlier, Herrick won the inaugural event in 2023, so he comes in knowing that victory could help on Saturday night.

Graves has never run both CRSA features at Genesee, nor does he have 360 experience here.

Ruggles finished sixth at CRSA’s maiden trip to Genesee and also has prior 360 Sprint experience there with the Empire Super Sprints, although he finished 20th.

By The Numbers: Eight drivers have finished in the top five at The Dirt Track at Genesee. Tomy Moreau is the only driver with multiple top-fives, with two. The average car count in both races is 21.5.

Tune In: Watch live on The Cushion with Marty Czekala on the call. You can also enhance your race nights at the track or online via the MyRacePass app or www.myracepass.com for $5.99 per month, featuring live timing, entry lists, fantasy and results.

From the Frontman: “We have three incredible drivers battling for two separate championships. Herrick is looking for his second CRSA championship, Graves is looking for his first of any kind and Ruggles is looking for his first miniseries championship since 2018. The Dirt Track at Genesee has definitely been revamped since the last time we were there and we can’t wait to see what show the sprint cars put on!” ~ Mike Emhof

Last Up: CRSA closes the 2026 season with a $4000-to-win show-up points event at Outlaw Speedway for the Hoag Memorial Oct. 16-17.

Landon Brooks Battles World of Outlaws in Stockton, CA

PETERSEN MEDIA: Taking on the World of Outlaws over the weekend in Stockton, CA, Landon Brooks and the Hamilton Racing with Tiner Hirst Ent. team showed their resolve during both nights of action as they scored 15th and 16thplace finishes.

“Friday night we didn’t get timed in well, but my guys went to work after qualifying and we were able to dig out of a hole,” Brooks said. “Saturday night, we were really good all night long, but I got caught up in a tangle and had to come from the back. I really am proud of our efforts to adapt when we need to find speed.”

Friday night, Brooks timed the Lippert Construction/THE/Mozingo Construction backed No. 21L in 33rd fastest and was in a very deep hole early in the night.

With his team making adjustments prior to heading out for heat race competition, the Rio Oso, CA driver was able to make a couple of big-time moves that propelled him into the fifth and final transfer spot and lock him into the 35-lap feature event.

Lining up 17th in the feature event, Brooks was off to a nice start in the feature event until contact on the sixth lap saw him get turned around which forced him to the back of the pack.

Able to restart with some damage, Brooks was able to move forward amidst a very wild and crazy feature event. Avoiding the chaos that went on around him, Brooks rebounded to a 15th place finish when the race drew to a close.

Returning to action on Saturday night, Brooks had a much better start to the night as he timed in 10th quickest in qualifying time trials before picking up a third-place finish in heat race competition.

Moving into the 40-lap Dennis Roth Classic feature event, Brooks quickly jumped into eighth when the race came to life. On a fast surface, he was running well in the Top-10 when bad luck again got him as he was collected in a tangle on the 12th lap and was forced to the back of the pack.

Able to restart, Brooks was able to gain some ground as he worked his way back up to 15th with five laps left in the race before settling for a 16th place finish when the feature came to a close.

“I really thought we had a car capable of running inside the Top-5 on Saturday,” Brooks added. “Unfortunately, we just got collected in another tangle. I really want to thank the Hamiltons, all of our great partners, as well as the guys who continue to work on this car week in and week out.”

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing would like to thank Lippert Construction, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Mozingo Construction, Dan Ewart Sales, Clow Valve, Vinyltech PVC Pipe, Teichert Construction, Advanced Drainage Systems, B Scadden Designs, SIP, North Bay Waterworks, Custom Pipe & Fabrication, Star Pipe Products, Westlake Pipe & Fittings, Eagle Chassis, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc. HRP, Sander Engineering, K1 Racegear, Kevin Sharrah Designs, Petersen Media, Met Tec Titanium, Slade Shocks, Wilwood Disc Brakes, System 1 Pro Ignition, and ZMax for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-36, Wins- 2, Top 5’s- 14, Top 10’s- 27

ON TAP: Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing turn their attention back to Chico, CA this Friday and Saturday night for the Fall Nationals.

Top Storylines Heading into the Anderson Speedway

The yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour hits its finishing stretch of the 2026 season as it heads to Anderson Speedway for the 11th Annual Tony Elliott Classic presented by CB Fabricating.

Four Former Tony Elliott Winners Highlight Competitive Field

In the past decade of contesting the Tony Elliott Classic at Anderson Speedway, only five drivers have been able to capture victory. Four of those five drivers will be in competition this Saturday for the 11th edition of the event presented by CB Fabricating. Dakoda Armstrong, Tyler Roahrig, Bobby Santos III, and Kody Swanson have all gone to victory lane in the Tony Elliott Classic in the past. Roahrig has the most Classic victories with four wins under his belt. Armstrong and Santos III both have two victories with Amrstrong winning his in consecutive years from 2023 to 2024. Swanson has one victory which came back in 2016. However, Swanson already has two victories at Anderson in 2026 including a Little 500 victory back in May. He, along with the other three former winners, will be ones to watch this weekend.

Exciting Stretch to finish 2026 Tour

Weather has played a major role in the 2026 season so far, causing reschedules and cancellations. Now, the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour officially reaches its final push to the season championship. Beginning this Saturday at Anderson Speedway, the Tour will see three races over the next four weeks. Following the Tony Elliott Classic at Anderson Speedway, the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour will make a trip to Toledo Speedway on Saturday, October 3rd. The event will be a makeup date from the previously scheduled event which was rained out in June. The series will then wrap up the season and crown its 2026 champion at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park on Saturday, October 17th. Kody Swanson currently leads the championship standings and will be looking to win his third series championship and first since 2024.

Neuenschwander teams up with Ted Slinkard Racing

A familiar car will make its return to Anderson Speedway this weekend, but it will be with a different familiar face behind the wheel. The #96 Unified Group Services machine owned by Ted Slinkard will make its first yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour Start since the Little 500 back in May, and will have New Haven, Indiana native Chris Neuenschwander at the helm. Mario Clouser most recently piloted the car to a fifth place finish in the Little 500 with former driver, Scott Hampton, acting as crew chief. Hampton will be back as crew chief for the Tony Elliott Classic as Neuenschwander takes over the controls. Clouser had previous commitments with the USAC Silver Crown Series at Eldora.

The start will be Neuenschwander’s first of the 2026 yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour season. He has six total starts with the series over the past five seasons, and most recently competed in the 2025 Tony Elliott Classic when he finished fifth. He notably qualified on pole position for the 2024 edition of the Tony Elliott Classic before pulling off only 21 laps into the 100 lap event. Neuenschwander's has a career best Little 500 finish of 6th in 2014 and qualified on the front row in 2016. He will look to showcase his raw speed again this weekend in a car that has proven it is capable of running up front.

Swanson 2/2 at Anderson in 2026, can it become 3/3

Kody Swanson has been the driver to beat in 2026 thus far. Swanson has two points earning victories this season at Anderson Speedway and at Salem Speedway. Swanson also has a non points earning victory as he claimed the 2026 Little 500 back in May. Currently leading the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour Championship points, Swanson will be looking to win his third 2026 victory at Anderson in as many tries. This time, however, he will be behind a different wheel than he was for the first two events.

Swanson began the 2026 season driving for Doran Enterprises, the team he won his first 500 Sprint Car Tour Championship with. The plan was simple, run together in April to get ready for May. The plan worked. Swanson went on to win the opening race at Anderson Speedway before going on to claim his fourth Little 500 crown. Now, he hops behind the familiar Nick Bohanon #33 machine to finish out the championship. Swanson and Bohanon won the 2024 series championship together in their first year and have been together ever since. He will look to extend his championship lead while also sweeping the 2026 races at Anderson Speedway.

Corn Fed, Harvest season, Racing, Coolest Drivers Suit in Racing

Fashion is not just for the red carpet and the runway, it is also for the straightaway and finish line. Dakoda Armstrong will no doubt be the most fashionable driver on the grid this weekend as he continues to showcase his new driver suit. Coming from a farming family and living in a farming town, there is no question that farm life is deeply ingrained in Armstrong. This harvest season, in partnership with main sponsor Meristem, Armstrong has been sporting a corn field themed driver suit that is sure to stand out from the crowd. Be on the lookout for one of the coolest suits in all of racing as Armstrong and his bright blue, green, and yellow suit will be looking to claim his third Tony Elliott Classic victory.

Race Info

The 11th annual Tony Elliott Classic presented by CB Fabricating will feature the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour, USSA Kenyon Midgets and Front Wheel Drives. The 500 Sprint Car Tour will headline the evening with a 100-lap battle around Anderson Speedway, while the USSA Kenyon Midgets will crown their 2026 champion following a 75 lap event and the Front Wheel Drives will compete in the Inaugural Harvest 50.

Dylan Bloomfield Reunites with C&M Motorsports

PETERSEN MEDIA- Reuniting with C&M Motorsports over the weekend, Dylan Bloomfield and company fought gremlins on Friday night before racing into Saturday night’s Dennis Roth Classic feature event at Stockton Dirt Track.

“Our results over the weekend weren’t exactly what we had hoped for, but we had good speed and got better each time we hit the track for the most part,” Dylan Bloomfield said. “It was our first 410ci race together after a couple of 360ci races earlier this season so there was a bit of figuring out we had to do.”

Friday night kicked the weekend off with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series and Bloomfield timed the Lund Construction/Anrak/Sam Rhodes backed No. 7C in 27th fastest in time trials which put him in an early hole.

Heat race action saw the Oakley, CA driver get a nice jump as he worked his way up to fourth and into a transfer before the red flag flew. When cars got pushed off once the accident was cleared up, Bloomfield’s entry wouldn’t come back to life and his heat race was over.

After thrashing to diagnose and fix the issue before the ‘B’, Bloomfield was able to make the call for the “B”, where he went on to finish 11th.

Returning to action on Saturday night for the Dennis Roth Classic finale, Bloomfield got his night started off by timing in 26th fastest in time trials and again found himself in the seventh starting position of his heat race.

Just as he did on Friday night, Bloomfield got a good start on the tight confines of the Stockton Dirt Track as he jumped into the fifth and final transfer position. Not having any issues appear on this night, Bloomfield held on at the finish and transferred into the 40-lap feature event.

Taking the green flag from the 18th starting position, Bloomfield battled between 18th and 20th for much of the race as he struggled to get into a rhythm while battling in dense traffic.

When the fast-paced feature came to a close, Bloomfield took the checkered flag in 19th as he and the team now look forward to this weekend’s Fall Nationals event.

“After having issues to fight on Friday, Saturday went a lot smoother for us,” Bloomfield said. “We kind of fought the balance on our car but we still made the best of it, and definitely learned each other a little more.”

The C&M Motorsports team would like to thank NOS Energy Drink, Lund Construction, Anrak, Sam Rhodes, MatriScope, Econo Lube-n-Tune, Alturas Tires, Swartz Diesel, Kings Meats, American Paving Systems, PT Shocks, and RJM Builders and all of their product sponsors for their continued support.

ON TAP: The C&M Motorsports team will head to the Fall Nationals in Chico, CA this Friday and Saturday with Dylan Bloomfield.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-32, Wins-2, Top 5’s-14, Top 10’s-17

It was really tough to recover after that. But that’s the good thing about racing, if you have a tough weekend like that, you can always bounce back and do better the next time out,” Brown said. “Excited to get back to Eldora Speedway.

Starks Secures 410 Skagit Speedway Championship With Top Five During Season Finale

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (Sept. 22, 2026) – Trey Starks captured his fifth consecutive 410ci winged sprint car track championship at Skagit Speedway last Saturday.

He’s won the owner’s championship all five years and the driver’s title every season except in 2024. This time, his 238-point margin of victory was the most for any driver in any division at the track since 2015.

Starks led the division with five wins, 12 top fives and 12 top 10s in 16 main events this season.

“I feel like we had similar speed as last year, but flipped results,” he said. “Last year, we won some big races, but lacked in some local wins. This year, we capitalized on the local wins, but missed out on the big events. We had DNFs on the final night of both the big 410 shows. If things go different we had potentially my best season. That speaks to the speed we have and the program we have going.”

Starks ran strong throughout the program last Saturday during his final start of the season at Skagit Speedway, qualifying second quickest before advancing one position to place third in a heat race and fifth in the main event.

“Nobody touched the top all night and when we went out for the feature the top was ripe for the taking and everybody was running up there,” he said. “We had a decent qualifying effort and ran third in the heat race. We pulled the six on the feature redraw. I knew it’d be tough because the top guys that run at Skagit are good. We got into fourth in the first handful of laps and had a couple of restarts when I was working on third. I tried the bottom lane a couple of laps until the top starting getting wound up and you had to move up. I was trying to get set up to challenge for third. One time off of turn four I plugged myself into the cushion too hard and got into the wall. That allowed Robbie (Price) to get by us. I got back in line and tried to study the track to see if there was another option. I ran side by side with Robbie the last three or four laps, but couldn’t get that edge to get past him. All in all, it was a solid night to cap the season championship.”

Starks plans to wrap up the season Oct. 29-31 at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, Calif., during the Trophy Cup.

QUICK RESULTS –

Sept. 19 – Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Wash. – Qualifying: 2; Heat race: 3 (4); Feature: 5 (6).

SEASON STATS –

32 races, 13 wins, 24 top fives, 27 top 10s, 28 top 15s, 29 top 20s

UP NEXT –

Oct. 29-31 at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, Calif., for the Trophy Cup

Paying $4,011 to win and $300, the Outlaw Fall Nationals is always one of the biggest shows of the season. In two previous visits to the Dundee oval in 2026, Davie Franek (July) and Jordan Hutton (April) came out victorious. It was Hutton’s first 360 sprint car win, and Franek’s fourth ESS win at Outlaw.

Of the top three drivers, neither Sobotka or Poirier have a 360 sprint car win at Outlaw, though Sobotka has a fifth and fourth in two tries this season, and Poirier has a second and third place finish in as many attempts. With Franek being a multi-time winner at the track, the race at the top of the standings will be wide open as each driver has proven they can run up front here.
Pit gates are set to open at 4pm Friday, with grandstands opening at 5:30pm and action getting underway at 6:45pm. General admission is set at $25, with kids 12 and under free.

Xavier Doney, powered by Kat Excavation, Pella Building Systems-Mini Storage Specialists, Schnee-Lawson Chassis, Motor Haven, Five Star Bodies, Stanton Racing Engines, CALI Floors, Wilwood Disc Brakes, DMI, Schaeffer Oil, Outlaw Wings, Schoenfeld Headers, Smith Titanium, and Design Source Flooring, led the charge for Doney-Lawson Racing, earning all three of the aforementioned A-Main starts with his top result an 18th-place score on Thursday, September 17.

CLOSE IN CALI: Axsom second in Stockton’s Dennis Roth Classic; Kings, Bakersfield, Ventura to conclude West Coast trip

2026 World of Outlaws Team Standings: 11th | 7100 points

Dates: Friday and Saturday, September 18th-19th
Series: World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series
Event: Dennis Roth Classic
Track: Stockton Dirt Track (Stockton, California)
Emerson Axsom A-Main Finishes (Start):
Friday: 12th (25th)
Saturday: 2nd (1st)

GREENFIELD, Ind. (September 21, 2026) - Emerson Axsom was so, so close in Saturday’s Dennis Roth Classic finale at Stockton Dirt Track in Stockton, California, but when the dust finally settled, the Franklin, Indiana, native was forced to settle with second best, concluding the $83,000-to-win World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series showcase with a runner-up finish.

Axsom, the ace of the Klaasmeyer Petry Motorsports No. 27 sprint car, commenced main event competition from the pole position, leading 12 circuits in total before slipping in the final corner. California’s own Justin Sanders, certainly no stranger to success on the West Coast, was the driver to capitalize, powering by Axsom in the final two turns before a drag race to the finish.

Despite the fact, Axsom’s runner-up result earned the Hoosier a $40,000 score, as well as enough points to secure 11th in the World of Outlaws championship.
Adding to the weekend’s stat chart, Klaasmeyer Petry Motorsports (KPM) opened their Dennis Roth Classic effort with an impressive rally from 25th to 12th on Friday, September 18.

Abreu highlights Lucas Oil trip with top-five in weekend finale; Kokomo and Eldora to close out September

2026 High Limit Racing National Team Standings: FIRST | Points: 2790

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (September 21, 2026) - Although shy of victory, Rico Abreu’s effort in Lucas Oil Speedway’s 16th annual Jesse Hockett/Daniel McMillin Memorial was satisfactory, concluding the three-day High Limit Racing showcase with a pair of top-ten outcomes, the best equaling a top-five in the weekend finale on Saturday, September 19.

Abreu, the reigning High Limit Racing national champion who holds down the current point lead, finished fourth in his top-five outcome, powering ahead four spots from the outside of row four. The St. Helena, California, native was on pace to perform even better in Thursday’s opener, but accidental contact with Brady Bacon halted any positive momentum; Abreu finished seventh.

As expressed, despite some hiccups, the ace of Tony Stewart’s Carquest, Curb Records, Sugarbee Apples, Waste Connections, Arc Zone, Martin One Source, Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, No. 24 sprinter remains in charge of the High Limit Racing championship standings, now ahead of Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR) by 101 markers.

Bacon and Vermeer make debut in Lucas Oil’s Hockett/McMillin Memorial; Kokomo, Eldora next in busy September stretch

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

MIFFLINTOWN, Pa. (September 21, 2026) - “The Macho Man” Brady Bacon made his Vermeer Motorsports debut in Lucas Oil Speedway’s Hockett/McMillin Memorial, and although the team out of Mifflintown, Pennsylvania, was unable to achieve the highest of results, notes were taken and progress was achieved, eager to continue their tenure through Indiana and Ohio.

Bacon, the new ace of Tony Vermeer’s TK Concrete, Maxim Trucking & Materials, Logan Contractors, Pave Grade, Rexco Equipment, US Equipment, Zip Bonds, No. 55 sprinter, concluded Lucas Oil’s three-day High Limit showcase with a trio of results equaling no worse than 15th, the best being a 12th-place outcome on Thursday, September 17. In fact, Bacon, who hails from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, was a top-five contender in the aforementioned start, that until a slip sent the former USAC National Champion for a spin.

“We got some laps under us and that feels good. Always takes time to build a comfort level with a new driver,” Tony Vermeer said. “Hats off to this entire team. They’ve been busting their butts all year long and I’m proud of their efforts. We have some great partners by our side and they make all of this possible. We’re working for great results at Kokomo and Eldora.”

Dietrich with back-to-back Gobrecht top-fives; The Grove, Lincoln on deck

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GETTYSBURG, Pa. (September 21, 2026) - Although Mother Nature erased all hope for Sunday night action at Path Valley Speedway Park, Friday and Saturday visits to Williams Grove Speedway and BAPS Motor Speedway went on as planned, and Danny Dietrich was in on the action. In fact, “Double-D,” a seven-time feature winner in 2026, finished no worse than fifth in his weekend pair - fifth in Friday’s Kevin Grobrecht Classic Challenge and fifth again in Saturday’s Kevin Gobrecht Classic.

Impressive enough, Dietrich, the ace of Gary Kauffman’s Weikert’s Livestock, Sandoe’s Fruit Market, Speedway Volkswagen & Subaru, Self Made Racing, York Excavating, Big Cove Whitetail Trophy Hunts, RV 4 Wheel Drive & Performance, No. 48 sprint car, put on a passing display, as well, climbing ahead from 17th to the aforementioned top-five at Williams Grove Speedway.

“Not a bad weekend stat-wise, so we’ll take it and move forward,” Dietrich was quick to note. “Still a few things we want to work on. We’ve got our eyes on the National Open. It will be here soon enough.”

Chris Andrews fourth in Fremont’s Jim Ford Classic opener

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

SANDUSKY, Ohio (September 21, 2026) - Although Mother Nature did her best to ruin the weekend, invading northwest Ohio just in time for Saturday’s 19th Annual Jim Ford Classic finale, Friday’s Jim Ford opener at Fremont Speedway went on as planned, and Sandusky’s own Chris Andrews was there to play.

Andrews, the ace of his own Ohio Truck Sales, Real American Beer, Fleet Financial, Erie Waste, Cintas, Whiteford Kenworth, Toledo Spring, NAPA Fremont Auto Parts, TruckParts4U.com, No. 15C sprint car, finished fourth in his Jim Ford | All Star Circuit of Champions appearance, climbing ahead three spots from the inside of row four. Impressive enough, the Sandusky ace put on a challenge for second prior to his slight fade to fourth, earning his way into the big dance via heat race victory.

The All Star Circuit of Champions top-five is nothing new to the former Attica Raceway Park track champion, as he bested the Series in Waynesfield’s Ohio Sprint Speedweek program in mid-June.

“We were hoping the weather was going to cooperate…we wanted another try,” Andrews said. “Super proud of this Ohio Truck Sales | Real American Beer team. We still have some racing left on our calendar. Plenty of time to work ourselves back to the front.”

Chris Andrews and Chris Andrews Racing will enjoy a weekend off.

Reutzel caps Lucas Oil trip with top-ten; Kokomo, Eldora all ahead

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (September 21, 2026) - Lucas Oil Speedway’s 16th annual Jesse Hockett/Daniel McMillin Memorial attracted some of the best open wheel aces in the country, and Clute, Texas’ own Aaron Reutzel - a 14-time main event winner in 2026 - was “all in” on the challenge, capping the three-day High Limit showcase with a top-ten appearance in the $25,000-to-win finale on Saturday, September 19.

Reutzel, driver of the Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR), Power Plus, Folkens Brothers Trucking, Don Long & STC, B And L Holdings, Rasmusson Service Center, Bargain Barn, No. 87 sprint car, finished ninth in his top-ten achievement - a sound improvement after opening competition with back-to-back 13th-place scores on Thursday and Friday, September 17-18. With all results considered, Reutzel and RSR remain as the second best in High Limit Racing’s national championship, trailing Rico Abreu by 101 markers.

“A tough three days at Lucas Oil Speedway, but we ended things with a top-ten so we’ll take that and move on,” Ryan Wyant, RSR Team Manager, stated. “We don’t have a lot of starts left on our High Limit schedule, so we’ll need to make up some championship ground in a hurry. It all starts Wednesday at Kokomo Speedway.”

ON DECK: Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing will continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with a visit to Kokomo Speedway in Kokomo, Indiana, on Wednesday, September 23, followed by Eldora Speedway’s 4-Crown Nationals doubleheader on Friday and Saturday, September 25-26.

Anderson, Indiana: The yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour returns to Anderson Speedway on Saturday, September 26, for one of the most anticipated events on the series schedule, the 11th annual Tony Elliott Classic presented by CB Fabricating.

Named in honor of Anderson Speedway and Indiana racing legend Tony Elliott. The event pre-dates the creation of the 500 Sprint Car Tour serving as the fall race at Anderson Speedway. It continues to be a marquee stop on the 500 Sprint Car Tour schedule, bringing some of the best pavement non-wing sprint car drivers in the country to the historic quarter-mile.

Leading the field into this year's event will be Tyler Roahrig, the defending Tony Elliott Classic winner. Roahrig captured the 2025 edition of the event and will return to Anderson looking to add another victory to his impressive record at the track.

The Plymouth, Indiana driver also enters the event with momentum after scoring the most recent 500 Sprint Car Tour victory at Berlin Raceway on August 28.

Kody Swanson — 2016

Tyler Roahrig — 2018, 2019, 2021, 2025

Bobby Santos III — 2020, 2022

Swanson, the reigning Unified Group Services Little 500 winner, will bring the No. 33 Nick Bohanon entry to Anderson as he looks to add another major victory to his already impressive pavement sprint car resume.

Santos will pilot the No. 22 DJ Racing entry. The Franklin, Massachusetts driver has been a consistent contender with the 500 Sprint Car Tour and will be looking to add a third Tony Elliott Classic victory to his resume.

Also returning is Dakoda Armstrong, the 2025 yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour champion, who will compete in the No. 1 C&A Motorsports entry. The New Castle, Indiana native is seeking his third Tony Elliott Classic victory.

The current entry list features 21 cars, including a strong contingent of Indiana drivers. Among those entered are Donnie Adams Jr., Matt Dimit, Timmy Creech, Tony McVey, Justin Harper, Rylan Gray, Kyle O'Gara, Billy Wease, Brian Vaughn, Tony Main and Chris Neuenschwander.

With five former Tony Elliott Classic winners already entered, a defending race winner looking to repeat and the most recent 500 Sprint Car Tour winner carrying momentum into the event, the stage is set for another exciting chapter in the history of the Tony Elliott Classic.

The 11th annual Tony Elliott Classic presented by CB Fabricating will feature the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour, USSA Kenyon Midgets and The 500 Sprint Car Tour will headline the evening with a 100-lap battle around Anderson Speedway.

Joel Myers Jr 10th at Hockett/McMillin Memorial

PETERSEN MEDIA: Spending last week in New Zealand helping his team prepare for the upcoming season, Joel Myers Jr returned to the US to take part in the Hockett/McMillin Memorial at Lucas Oil Speedway with High Limit Racing where he finished 10th during Saturday night’s finale.

“I was really happy with how much speed we had in our Hayward Motorsports car,” Joel Myers Jr said. “Thursday night we had a great qualifying lap, but the heat race inversion mixed with a loaded heat race made things tough. Though we didn’t make the feature that night, we had just as good of a car on Friday and Saturday and came away with two strong finishes.”

After qualifying fifth during Thursday’s opening night and failing to transfer into the feature event aboard the Velocity Engineering/Installtec Inc./RPM Chassis backed No. 19JR, the Sebastopol, CA product got Friday night started by timing in 16th fastest in time trials.

Lining up third in his heat race, Myers Jr finished in the show position and transferred into the feature event where he took the green flag from the 13th starting position.

Moving into 10th as the race came to life, Myers Jr settled in as he let things settle down in front of him. Just before the halfway point of the 30-lapper, Myers Jr began to make some moves as he worked into the ninth position on the 13th lap, before taking over sixth on the 16th lap.

Running in sixth for seven laps, Myers Jr cracked the Top-5 on the 22nd lap as he then began chasing after Tanner Holmes who ran ahead of him in fourth.

When the feature came to a close, Myers Jr took the fifth-place finish and then turned his attention to Saturday night’s finale.

Saturday night qualifiers were set by event points which placed Myers Jr in the second row of qualifier No. 2. Finishing third, Myers Jr locked into the 35-lap Hockett/McMillin Memorial feature event as he took the green flag from the outside of the seventh row.

On the extremely slick Lucas Oil Speedway surface, Myers Jr dropped back to 14th on the race’s second lap before he began the process of working his way towards the Top-10.

Moving into 12th on the fourth lap, ‘Jr’ was in to 11th on the sixth lap as his car continued to come to him with each passing lap.

Holding on to 11th for the majority of the first half of the race, he was able to take over 10th on the 16th lap. Moving into eighth on the 19th lap, Myers Jr slipped back to ninth on the 21st lap as he raced in traffic as rubber was going down on the surface.

Slipping back to 10th on the 27th lap, Myers Jr was able to hold his spot inside the Top-10 as he closed his weekend out with High Limit Racing with a 10th place finish.

“Thanks to my guys for working so hard for me while I was away last week,” Joel Myers Jr added. “I also want to thank the Hayward family for continuing to support my racing efforts and make sure our team has what we need to succeed.”

Joel Myers Jr and Hayward Motorsports would like to thank Velocity Engineering, Installtec Inc., RPM Chassis, DirtDudes Excavating, FK Rod Ends, Russ Wentcamp, The GR8 Company, All About Fire Protection, Sam Carbis Solutions Group, Brad Alexander Suspension, Jim O’Neal Ford, Blackburn Construction, Al Parker Engines, Nitro Alley Graphics, and Brown and Miller Racing Solutions.

Joel Myers Jr Racing would like to thank Graham Rahal Performance, Gary Tennyson Motorsports, All About Fire Protection, Hi-Plains Building Division, DirtDudes Excavating, Carbon Safety, System 1 Ignition, Weld, FK Rod Ends, Blud Lubricants, Smith Ti, Culvert Ops, Economy Plumbing, Cartronics, NorCal Powersports, Y2K Gaming, Shark Racing Engines, Lucas Oil, Vaider, Walker Performance Filtration, ShopRico.Com, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Kaeding Performance, Triple X Race Co., and Ogio, for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-61, Wins-6, Top-5’s-17, Top-10’s-23

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Finish Fourth Both Nights at Stockton Dirt Track

Inside Line Promotions – STOCKTON, Calif. (Sept. 21, 2026) – Big Game Motorsports posted back-to-back fourth-place finishes last weekend at Stockton Dirt Track.

That gives the team and driver David Gravel 42 top-five finishes this season, including 40 during World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series competition. That’s the most of any driver on the Series.

“I thought the weekend went pretty good,” he said. “We qualified good enough each night to put us in the front row of a heat race.

“On Friday, the first start went well. Unfortunately, on the second start the No. 41 did a wheelie and it pushed me out. I lost second place going into turn one. It was hard to make much happen. We started 11th in the feature and had the mentality to get what we could and we ended up fourth. I was very, very pleased with that. I felt like there was a lot of chaos the first night for sure. To escape that with no drama was a good feeling.”

Gravel’s charge from 11th to fourth place was followed by another strong night on Saturday. He qualified sixth quickest and placed second in a heat race.

“I was able to hang onto second in the heat,” he said. “I was really happy with my pill draw for the dash. For whatever reason, we laid an egg in the dash and fell back. It was a bummer to run seventh. That took us out of contention to compete for the win. I felt really good in the feature from the drop of the green flag. I was able to gain some spots. It was hard to pass and track position was huge. I wish we could get back that dash.”

Gravel maneuvered from seventh to fourth in the feature.

Three World of Outlaws races are on tap this week with the Central Valley Clash on Tuesday at Kings Speedway in Hanford, Calif.; the Nashville West Showdown on Friday at Bakersfield Speedway at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in Bakersfield, Calif.; and the Toyota Racing Battle on the Beach presented by ARP on Saturday at Ventura Raceway in Ventura, Calif.

“Hanford is a bigger track for racing out here and it’s a place we’ve raced at quite a bit,” Gravel said. “As far as Bakersfield, we’ve been there once before. I felt we had a good, fast race car the last time there and just had a flat tire. I’m excited to go back there. Ventura will be possibly the smallest track we’ve raced at. That will be new for about everybody that races 410 winged sprint cars.”

Gravel enters the week leading the World of Outlaws championship standings by 112 points.

Dominic Scelzi Joining Tarlton Motorsports for World of Outlaws Week in California

Inside Line Promotions – ANTIOCH, Calif. (Sept. 21, 2026) – Dominic Scelzi climbs back into a familiar role this week as a super sub.

Scelzi joins Tarlton Motorsports for a trio of World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series events in his home state of California. The action begins on Tuesday at Kings Speedway in Hanford for the Central Valley Clash. On Friday, Bakersfield Speedway at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in Bakersfield hosts the Nashville West Showdown. The busy week concludes on Saturday at Ventura Raceway in Ventura for the Toyota Racing Battle on the Beach presented by ARP.

“I’m beyond grateful to the Tarlton Family and the team for giving me another opportunity to drive the No. 21,” he said. “It’s an honor to race for such a top-of-the-line team in such big events against the World of Outlaws.”

The three races will be the first three of the season for Scelzi with the World of Outlaws. It will also be his first at each of the tracks this year. Scelzi last competed at Kings Speedway in October 2024, when he won a 360 winged sprint car feature and placed second during a 410 sprint car main event on the same night. He ran ninth at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway last season and finished seventh during his most recent visit to Ventura Raceway in September 2015.

Scelzi made his season debut with Tarlton Motorsports on Sept. 12 during a NARC King of the West Sprint Car Series event at Antioch Speedway. He qualified second quickest before placing fifth in a heat race, the dash and the main event. It marked Scelzi’s 10th top-five result of the season.

“It’s always difficult to jump in a different car and be competitive right off the bat,” he said. “That was a solid night for us and I know with more laps together we’ll be even better.”

$2500 ON THE LINE FOR CRSA AT LAND OF LEGENDS FRIDAY NIGHT
 

The witching hour is here for the A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints as a month remains in the 2026.

Two more full points shows and a show-up points event remains and it starts Friday night at Land of Legends Raceway in Canandaigua for night one of the Gerald Haers Memorial.

From this point on, the stakes are raised.

Each full points race will now pay $2500-to-win, $260-to-start, as we hit the home stretch.

Two races remain in the DisBatch Brewing Company-Stirling Lubricants Challenge as Tyler Graves holds a slim seven point lead over Darryl Ruggles for the popular miniseries.

It is the third time CRSA has run at Land of Legends this season. Earlier this year, Zach Sobotka and Lance Dusett scored victories in series action.

Here’s a look at what’s on tap for Friday night.

Last Time Out: CRSA headed to the Keystone State once last time this season to Penn Can Speedway.

It was all Mikey Smith as he recorded a perfect night from hot laps, his heat race and led all 25 laps en route to an eight second victory for his fourth win of the season.

Smith was crowned King Mikey the XXVI in King of the Can. Entered with his trademark Burger King crown, left with a metal crown.

“I can’t believe it happened,” said Smith. “The way the car felt has me feeling like a king. That thing was just a pure beauty to drive. Put it anywhere, was wheeling it on the cushion and it went right around the track how I needed to.”

Dillon Paddock finish second while Bailey Boyd scored a third.

Point Standings: With two full points races left to go, even losing four points in his lead, Dalton Herrick remains at a steady lead at 48 on Tyler Graves. If Herrick gains 12 points in the lead and wins Friday night, the advantage could be clinched.

Whoever gets the major championship advantage will just have to show up either Friday or Saturday at Outlaw to clinch the championship, as the two-day Hoag Memorial is a 75-point show-up event.

Timmy Lotz remains in third, 201 points behind Herrick.

Jerry Sehn Jr. remains fourth in points, 346 back.

Maverick Coffey cracked the top five in points for the first time this season, 419 points behind.

Like Coffey, Dustin Sehn gained a spot to sixth, 35 points behind Coffey.

The rest of the top 12 look like this: Johnny Scarborough seventh (-554), Nick Webb eighth (-579), Paul Colagiovanni Sr. ninth (-638), Bailey Boyd 10th (-831), Kirsten Dombroski 11th (-932) and Zach Sobotka 12th (-1003).

DisBatch-Stirling Standings: It’s a tight battle up front as Tyler Graves, looking for his first miniseries championship, holds an eight point lead on Darryl Ruggles, who hasn’t won a miniseries since 2018 in the Land of Legends Challenge. Nick Webb though isn’t far behind, back 37.

Mathematically, the top 12 drivers from Graves back to Alysha Bay are eligible to win the miniseries title.

Due Up: With Land of Legends as the only weekly track for 305 Sprints, this brings a fun challenge between the series regulars and the track regulars.

This year’s track champion, Bobby Parrow, hasn’t picked up a series win but has recorded four top fives and eight top 10s, the latter stat more than anyone else at Land of Legends this year.

Last season, Parrow picked up a pair of CRSA victories, including one at Land of Legends July 5, 2025.

A Career Season: From the day Spencer Burley made his CRSA debut in 2024 to today, the progress has been remarkable.

In his third year, Burley has recorded three wins in 2026, including one at a notable track to his father Todd at Ransomville.

When Burley has run at Land of Legends, the No. 15B has been one to watch out for.

In weekly competiton, he’s recorded two victories and six top fives, the latter more than any other.

Top 2 at Land of Legends: Both drivers have had positive shares at Land of Legends. One recently, one a few years back.

Landon Brooks 2nd with NARC At Antioch Speedway

PETERSEN MEDIA: Reuniting with NARC on Saturday night at Antioch Speedway in Antioch, CA, Landon Brooks and the Hamilton Racing with Tiner Hirst Enterprise team flexed their muscle as Brooks picked up a second-place finish.

“We had a couple tough weeks with High Limit, but on Saturday night we put that behind us and really had a strong night,” Landon Brooks said. “I just needed to do a better job on the initial start, but I am happy to get these guys back on the podium.”

Brooks got the night kicked off by timing the Lippert Construction/THE/Mozingo Construction backed No. 21L entry in fifth fastest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, Brooks slipped back to third as the field navigated around a very narrow surface that was offered up on this night. Finishing third in his heat, the Rio Oso, CA driver still earned a Dash berth based on his qualifying effort where his Dash win then put him on the pole of the feature event.

With the surface still staying extremely fast, Brooks and company adjusted their car accordingly as they set out looking for a NARC victory.

When the green flag was displayed to the field, Brooks made an admitted mistake and slipped back to fourth initially before moving back to third as the field raced through turns three and four.

Running in third, passing was extremely tough on this night as the field stretched out and the leaders quickly reached the back of the field and began the lapping process.

While running through heavy traffic, Brooks was able to take over the second position on the 22nd lap just before a late caution bunched the field back up on the 26th circuit.

With one shot at challenging Justin Sanders for the race win, Brooks hung with Sanders as the race resumed, but was unable to make a move for the top spot and closed the night out with a runner up finish.

“I really want to thank the Hamilton Racing and Tiner Hirst Ent. guys for all of their hard work,” Landon Brooks said. “They continue to grind and get our car better each night out.”

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing would like to thank Lippert Construction, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Mozingo Construction, Dan Ewart Sales, Clow Valve, Vinyltech PVC Pipe, Teichert Construction, Advanced Drainage Systems, B Scadden Designs, SIP, North Bay Waterworks, Custom Pipe & Fabrication, Star Pipe Products, Westlake Pipe & Fittings, Eagle Chassis, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc. HRP, Sander Engineering, K1 Racegear, Kevin Sharrah Designs, Petersen Media, Met Tec Titanium, Slade Shocks, Wilwood Disc Brakes, System 1 Pro Ignition, and ZMax for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-34, Wins- 2, Top 5’s- 14, Top 10’s- 27

ON TAP: Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing with Tiner Hirst Ent. team will be in Stockton, CA this Friday and Saturday for the Dennis Roth Classic.

Chance Grasty Third with NARC At Antioch Speedway

PETERSEN MEDIA- Back in action with NARC on Saturday night in Antioch, CA, Chance Grasty had another strong showing with the series as he landed on the podium with a third-place finish.

With the High Limit Swing and Calistoga Speedway in the rear-view mirror, the NARC schedule bridged the gap before the upcoming World of Outlaws swing in California.

Checking in at Antioch Speedway on Saturday night, Grasty got his night underway by timing the Bushey Financial Services/C&H Motor Parts/Sierra Single Ply Roofing backed No. x1 entry in third quickest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up on the pole of his heat race, the Suisun City, CA driver took full advantage of the prime starting spot on the ultra-fast surface as he surged to the race lead. Keeping the field at bay, Grasty picked up the win and moved into the Dash where his second-place finish put him on the front row of the impending 30-lap feature.

When the race went green, Grasty was unable to get the start he needed as he fell back to fourth and began to chase after Landon Brooks who ran just ahead of him in third. Narrow conditions at Antioch Speedway didn’t allow for the field to get racy as the youngster continued to look for a way to get on the podium.

A late yellow flag bunched the field back up for the race’s final restart and Grasty was able to take advantage as he moved into third when the green lights flashed back on.

Holding the position for the final four laps, Grasty closed his race out with a third-place finish.

F&F Racing would like to thank Bushey Financial Services, C&H Motor Parts, Sierra Single Ply Roofing, Triple X Race Co., Wrayvon, CRV Carbon Solutions, Econo Lube ‘N’ Tune, XC Gear, All Pro Heads, Engler, and Don Ott Racing Engines for their support.

ON TAP: F&F Racing and Chance Grasty are now set for the Dennis Roth Classic this Friday and Saturday night in Stockton, CA.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-36, Wins-2, Top 5’s-8, Top 10’s-21

Mallett Eager to Battle for King of the Ditch Title Saturday at Riverside International Speedway

Inside Line Promotions – GREENBRIER, Ark. (Sept. 15, 2026) – Jordon Mallett is heading to a familiar track this Saturday when Riverside International Speedway hosts the King of the Ditch.

It will mark the third visit this season to the bullring in West Memphis, Ark., for Mallett and car owner A.G. Rains.

“It’s one of my more successful tracks when you look at my career,” Mallett said. “Here lately, I feel like it’s been my arch nemesis. We just need things to fall into place for us this weekend. I think that’s what makes West Memphis more personal because when we pull through the pit gate I expect to contend for the win there. We’re hoping to expand on the progress we made the last time we raced there and to have the cards fall our way.”

Mallett has posted results of fourth and fifth, respectively, during two trips to the track this year.

“We’ve been lukewarm a couple of times we’ve been there this year,” he said. “The first time we weren’t that great even though we ran inside the top five. We went back with a little different package and set quick time. We were penalized by our time and charged forward and felt we had a car that was a contender before the nose wing was knocked down. We haven’t been hot or cold there, just lukewarm. But we were headed in the right direction the last time we were there so that’s encouraging for this weekend.”

Mallett and Rains finished second in the marquee event in 2024.

“It’s been a little different pace this year between weather and other outside variables so we haven’t been able to race as much as we planned,” Mallett said. “We’re looking forward to racing this weekend and hopefully being a contender in the King of the Ditch like we were two years ago.”

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Record Runner-Up Result at Dodge City

Inside Line Promotions – CALHAN, Colo. (Sept. 15, 2026) – David Gravel guided Big Game Motorsports to its 40th top-five finish of the season last Saturday at Dodge City Raceway Park.

After qualifying 10th quickest, a run from fourth to second place in a heat race locked the team into the dash at the dirt oval in Dodge City, Kan. A fifth-place result in the dash was followed by a charge from fifth to second place during the A Main. That was tied for the second-most positions gained in the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series race.

It also marked Gravel’s 11th runner-up result and his 30th podium outing of the season.

The team ventured to El Paso County Raceway on Monday. Gravel timed in fifth quickest in qualifying, placed second in a heat race and won the dash to garner the pole position for the main event.

He led the first two laps before dropping to second, where he ran until reclaiming the top spot on Lap 32. Unfortunately, contact in turn one on the final lap resulted in Gravel getting upside down and relinquishing the lead. The crew worked to get the car back on the track for the restart and Gravel salvaged a 17th-place finish, saving a dozen points by finishing the race.

Gravel currently holds a 114-point lead in the World of Outlaws championship standings as the Series visits California for a five-race swing the next two weeks. It begins this Friday and Saturday at Stockton Dirt Track in Stockton, Calif., for the Dennis Roth Classic.

Gravel finished fifth during his most recent race at the track in September 2024.

Pokorski matches 410 career-best at Wilmot

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 15, 2026 – Alex Pokorski equaled his best career finish behind the wheel of a 410 Sprint Car with a strong runner-up showing in open 410 Sprint Car competition as part of the third annual Fall Classic Natalie Klemko Memorial at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Friday, Sept. 11.

The West Bend, Wis. native opened the night by recording the third-fastest qualifying lap in the 18-car field in 12.920 seconds in the seat of his No. 4 GR8 Team entry.

Pokorski then placed second in the first heat race and raced to victory in the four-lap dash to secure the pole position for the 30-lap $4,500-to-win main event. He led the first eight laps before relinquishing the top spot on lap 9.

Wilmot win lifts Arenz to second 410 track title

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 15, 2026 – As the 2026 season begins to cool down, Travis Arenz and the members of Travis Arenz Motorsports are heating up.

The team paid a visit to victory lane for the fourth time this season, while sealing its second straight Wilmot Raceway 410 Sprint Car track championship during an open 410 Sprint Car event held during the third annual Fall Classic Natalie Klemko Memorial in Wilmot, Wis. on Friday, Sept. 11.

Arenz opened a nearly perfect night in the 410 Sprint Car division by earning fast qualifier honors in the 18-car field with a lap of 12.618 seconds. After winning the first heat race and placing second in the four-lap dash, the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. competitor rolled off from the outside of the front row in the 30-lap main event.

He ran second for the first eight circuits before making what proved to be the winning move on lap 9. Once ahead, Arenz pulled away to claim a boosted $4,500 first-place prize. The victory was Arenz’s fourth of the 2026 season, eighth in a 410 Sprint Car, and 78th overall career A-main triumph.

With the win, Arenz wrapped up his second consecutive Wilmot Raceway 410 Sprint Car track title.

“The entire night at Wilmot went well,” Arenz said. “Our setup was good. I was able to hit my marks pretty consistently for the most part and was able to pick up my second Wilmot track championship.”

His second Wilmot Raceway 410 Sprint Car track title marked the eighth track/series championship of his 18-season career (2013 Plymouth Outlaw Compact 4-Cylinder, 2016 141 Speedway Northern Sport Mod, 2021-2022 Plymouth 360 Sprint Car, 2021-2022 Midwest Sprint Car Association).

In addition, Arenz strapped into a Non-Winged Sprint Car for the first time with the Wisconsin wingLESS Sprint Car Series.

“I got the opportunity to drive a Wingless car as well, but it was pretty short-lived,” Arenz said. “I didn't have any brakes and unfortunately ended up upside down.
We will be back in the future with it again.”

The Travis Arenz Motorsports team is set to compete with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series for the prestigious 48th annual Jackson Nationals at Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minn. on Friday, Sept. 18 and Saturday, Sept. 19.

Spectator gates open at 5 p.m. with hot laps at 6:30 p.m. and racing at 7:30 p.m. on both nights.

Starks Wins 360 Sprint Car Season Finale at Skagit Speedway to Earn Track Title

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (Sept. 14, 2026) – Trey Starks produced his third consecutive 360ci winged sprint car championship at Skagit Speedway last Saturday in style.

Starks led the distance of the main event to garner his seventh triumph in the division this season – his most in any division in a single season in his career. It also marked his 13th total triumph of the year, which is his second most in a season.

“We’re not necessarily points racers, but with everything going on at Skagit it’s hard not to be,” he said. “It feels great to get another one and it’s a reflection on how great our season has been. If it wasn’t for everything they have incentivizing running for a points championship I’m not sure we would, but it’s hard to pass up so it’s rewarding to win another 360 championship.”

Starks was efficient throughout Saturday night.

“The night started good as we went second quick,” he said. “Robbie (Price) went out toward the end of qualifying and laid down a really, really good lap. We ran second in the heat race from fourth. The key is to put yourself into that top six to give yourself a chance to start near the front. I don’t think we’ve had any shows between the 360 or 410 at Skagit this season when we haven’t been in that feature redraw and that’s a huge key. We’ve also seen our luck change of getting second and third row draws. That’s a big help from Savanna Hillier, Levi’s sister. I stopped drawing my numbers and for whatever reason she’s got good luck there so that’s a big help. She drew us the front row.

“We got the lead on the start and worked through traffic for the first 18 laps. I think we lapped up to 12th. We had a nice full field there and I was in traffic for a while. We had a caution with about 12 laps to go and had a restart. Later in the race, I got held up in traffic and with two or three laps to go I saw Levi’s nose there when I got pinned in a bad spot in traffic. We put a couple lapped cars away and didn’t see anyone on the last lap. It was another smooth night where we did what we needed to and brought home a win.”

Starks finished with seven wins, 10 top fives and 11 top 10s – all division-best statistics – in 11 feature starts this season at Skagit Speedway.

“Our 360 program was on point pretty much this whole year,” he said. “We did experience a hiccup at 360 Nationals when we hurt our primary 360 car and had to go to our 410 car for both divisions, but we got it fixed and this was our first night back on it. Ironically, because we hurt our 410 car at the Skagit Nationals, we’ll be running our final 410 show at Skagit in this 360 car. It’s had a lot of laps around Skagit and a lot of laps with me behind the wheel.”

Starks will secure his fifth straight 410 track championship at Skagit Speedway this Saturday during the season finale. He’s won the driver’s title four of those years and the owner’s title during all five seasons.

QUICK RESULTS –

Sept. 12 – Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Wash. – Qualifying: 2; Heat race: 2 (4); Feature: 1 (1).

SEASON STATS –

31 races, 13 wins, 23 top fives, 26 top 10s, 27 top 15s, 28 top 20s

Colby Copeland 2nd at Forni Humphreys Classic

PETERSEN MEDIA- Fresh off their big win at Calistoga Speedway, Colby Copeland and C&M Motorsports chased after another big payday on Saturday night at Placerville Speedway’s Forni/Humphreys Classic where the team ultimately secured a second-place finish.

“We had another really solid night on Saturday, but it is also a little bittersweet to lead the first half of the race and finish second,” Colby Copeland said. “I want to give a big thanks to Cody and Bobby for their hard work and giving me a really good car all night.”

31 cars checked into the Placerville Speedway for the track’s regular season finale, and Copeland kicked the night off by timing the NOS Energy Drink/Lund Construction/Anrak backed No. 7c entry in 11th fastest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, the Roseville, CA native was shot out of a cannon as he stormed into the early lead. Leading from start to finish, Copeland not only punched his ticket into the $10,085-to-win feature event, he also earned a spot in the redraw where he drew the ‘one’.

On a very slick surface with a thick cushion built up on both ends of the track, Copeland got the early jump but instantly felt pressure from Max Mittry. Able to keep Mittry at bay, Copeland looked very strong as he navigated the high side of the speedway at both ends of the track.

Continuing to lead the way, Copeland’s battle with Mittry intensified as the race hit the halfway point. As the duo began to battle for the top spot, Mittry was able to get the edge over Copeland as he fell back to second.

Back in second, Copeland took on a couple of challenges from the likes of Tony Gomes and Tanner Carrick, but able to counter every move, he held on to close the race out with a second-place finish.

“I really wish I could have closed the night out and won the Forni/Humphreys race, but I am still happy with how our car was and to still finish second,” Copeland added.

The C&M Motorsports team would like to thank NOS Energy Drink, Lund Construction, Anrak, Sam Rhodes, MatriScope, Econo Lube-n-Tune, Alturas Tires, Swartz Diesel, Kings Meats, American Paving Systems, PT Shocks, and RJM Builders and all of their product sponsors for their continued support.

ON TAP: The C&M Motorsports team is idle this weekend but plan on heading to Chico, CA on September 25th and 26thfor the Fall Nationals.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-29, Wins-2, Top 5’s-14, Top 10’s-17

Tanner Carrick 4th at Forni/Humphreys Classic

PETERSEN MEDIA: Heading to Placerville Speedway on Saturday night for the track’s regular season finale billed as the annual Forni/Humphreys Classic, Tanner Carrick was able to snag another Top-Five finish as he ran fourth in the feature event.

“We did everything right to put ourselves on the front row of the feature event, but unfortunately it was kind of a weird start and we got shuffled back a few spots,” Tanner Carrick said.

With 31 cars checked into the pit area vying for the $10,085 that was up for grabs, Carrick got his night underway by timing the CVC/Cemex/Interstate Oil backed No. 83T entry in eighth fastest overall.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, the Lincoln, CA driver was quick to hammer the throttle as he jumped into the lead as the field rumbled into turns one and two. Leaving the field in his wake, Carrick secured the win which also garnered a berth in the nightly redraw where he pulled the ‘two’.

Set for the 30-lap feature event front row alongside Colby Copeland, Carrick’s car got out of shape as the field came to the green and he slipped back to third on the opening lap.

On a very slick surface, Carrick chased after the lead duo of Copeland and Max Mittry as he soon felt pressure from the likes of Tony Gomes and Shane Golobic who chased after him.

Falling back to fourth on the 13th lap, Carrick was then a part of a very torrid battle for the third-fifth spots on the track as the trio of cars continued to take shots at one another.

Briefly getting back into third on laps 19 and 20, the action continued to stay hot and Carrick slipped back to fourth where he ultimately went on to finish.

“The way the track was, there was a ton of action for track position and it got intense at times,” Carrick said. “Thanks to Clark Riolo and all of the guys for their hard work and making sure we had a fast car all night.”

Tanner Carrick would like to thank CVC, Cemex, Interstate Oil, D.R. Horton, Conti, Harris and Sloan, Hanson Truss, TC Guide Service, Eddie’s Lincoln Auto Body, Simpson Strong-Tie, A&A Concrete Supply, Kaeding Performance, and Arai for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts: 48, Wins: -0, Top 5’s: 11, Top 10’s: 28

ON TAP: Tanner Carrick is now set to take on the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series this Friday and Saturday night in Stockton, CA for the Dennis Roth Classic.

Andy Forsberg 9th at Placerville Speedway Regular Season Finale

PETERSEN MEDIA: Checking in at Placerville Speedway on Saturday night for the Forni/Humphreys Classic, Andy Forsberg and the PHR Racing team earned fast time honors to start the night before closing the points season out with a ninth-place finish in the feature event.

“It was kind of a disappointing end to the night after starting with so much promise,” Andy Forsberg said. “I felt really good in hot laps, qualifying, and our heat race, but the feature event we just weren’t very good and couldn’t get much of anything going.”

A total of 31 cars checked in at Placerville Speedway for the track’s final event of their championship schedule, and Forsberg kicked the night off by timing the PHR/Wilkie Masonry/Western Traffic Supply backed No. 92 in fastest overall in qualifying time trials.

Lining up fourth in his heat race, the Auburn, CA driver showcased a very strong car as he quickly advanced into the second position and began tracking down early leader, Jake Morgan. Closing in on Morgan, Forsberg had a run of momentum but Morgan was able to change his line and keep Forsberg in second which is where he finished.

Advancing into the redraw based on his qualifying effort and heat race finish, the eight pill placed the Auburn, CA driver in the outside of the fourth row for the 30-lap finale.

When the race came to life, Forsberg tried to mimic the same success he had in his heat race, but wasn’t quite able to match his performance. Slipping back to 10th as the race came to life, Forsberg continued to rip around the cushion looking to work his way forward.

Unable to mount a charge through the field, Forsberg was able to pick up a couple of spots late in the race as he took advantage of some others misfortune and closed the night out with a ninth-place finish.

“I really felt great all night long, and thought we would be able to charge from eighth, but we just didn’t quite have the same car and the same speed we had earlier in the night,” Forsberg said. “We will be off this weekend before we return to action in a couple of weeks for the Fall Nationals.”

Andy Forsberg and PHR Racing would like to thank Pacific Highway Rentals, Wilkie Masonry, Western Traffic Supply, PitStopUSA, Red Line Oil, FK Rod Ends, Autism Awareness, Parking and Transportation Group, MCK, 1st Vanguard, Highway Specialty Co., and KBJ Catering for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races- 38, Wins-8, Top 5’s-21, Top 10’s-26

ON TAP: Andy Forsberg and the PHR team will be idle this weekend before returning to action at Silver Dollar Speedway for the Fall Nationals on September 25th and 26th.

“A-Aron” highlights Tuscarora 50 weekend with Thursday podium; Lucas Oil’s Hockett ahead

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (September 14, 2026) - Port Royal Speedway’s 59th Annual Tuscarora 50 may have concluded shy of the team’s expectation, but “A-Aron” Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR) came out swinging, opening the three-day blockbuster with a podium score on Thursday, September 10.

Reutzel, who is currently second in the High Limit Racing national championship standings, finished third in his podium appearance, climbing ahead five positions from the outside of row four.

WORKIN’ ON A REPEAT: Madsen and Vermeer Motorsports work to defend Lucas Oil Speedway success in Jesse Hockett / Daniel McMillin Memorial

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

MIFFLINTOWN, Pa. (September 14, 2026) - The last time High Limit Racing graced their presence at Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri, it was “The Madman” Kerry Madsen who visited victory lane, and with the 16th Annual Jesse Hockett / Daniel McMillin Memorial next on the Series’ books, there’s no better time than now to repeat past successes.

Madsen, the ace of Tony Vermeer’s Vermeer Motorsports, TK Concrete, Maxim Trucking & Materials, Logan Contractors, No. 55 sprinter, will roll into the Show-Me State fresh off of Port Royal Speedway’s three-day Tuscarora 50, concluding the 59th edition with three-straight A-Main appearances, highlighting all action with a top-ten on Thursday, September 10. In fact, Madsen’s eventual top-ten was the product of forward progress, commencing action from row eight before finishing eighth - the team’s 24th top-ten of 2026.

Vermeer Motorsports raced on to finish 20th in Friday’s “Night Before The 50” and 13th in Saturday’s $59,000-to-win finale; there were nearly 60 cars entered for action.

“Overall, a solid effort by our Vermeer Motorsports team. The Tuscarora 50 is truly a ‘crown jewel’ event, not just in Pennsylvania, but the entire country, so it’s tough to be discouraged about anything,” Tye Wolfgang, Vermeer Motorsports Crew Chief, said. “Regardless, we’re excited to get back to Lucas Oil Speedway. We found success there in our last High Limit visit, so the plan is to do it again.”

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (September 14, 2026) - Jace Park has been hot, and for all the right reasons. In fact, the Overland Park, Kansas, native has finished no worse than fifth in his last two outings, the first of which resulting in victory at Missouri State Fair Speedway.

Impressive, to say the least, Park’s eventual ASCS National Tour top-five commenced from 14th, launching his way into the evening’s program with a fourth-place finish in his respective heat.

Park’s momentum will prove vital, as his 2026 campaign is scheduled to continue September 17-19 with Lucas Oil Speedway’s 16th Annual Jesse Hockett / Daniel McMillin Memorial. The three-day showcase will feature POWRi, as well as the best of High Limit Racing.

THE BEST IN BENTON: Xavier Doney leads Schnee-Lawson Chassis to POWRi triumph at Benton Speedway

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

ODESSA, Mo. (September 14, 2026) - It was a total-team effort for Xavier Doney, Doney-Lawson Racing, and Schnee-Lawson Chassis, capping the POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League visit to Benton Speedway in Benton, Missouri, as the best in show - Doney’s third Series triumph of the season.

Doney, who sits third in the POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League championship, earned his score from third on the grid, taking advantage of a late-race restart to lead the final seven circuits. In fact, Doney’s entire evening output was stout from start to finish, commencing action with the third-quickest qualifying time, racing on to finish second in his respective heat race.

“Good points night; twenty points when you are chasing a good leader means so much when it’s this late in the year,” said Doney in victory lane. “I can’t thank this team enough for giving me this opportunity.”

A total-team effort, nonetheless, Natalie Doney - Xavier’s younger sister and Doney-Lawson Racing teammate - padded her stable’s stat chart with an impressive run herself, concluding the Benton, Missouri, showcase with a 13th-place result - a patient and persistent push from the inside of row 12.

JONESTOWN, Pa. (September 14, 2026) - The “Jonestown Jet” Brock Zearfoss had a tough three days in Port Royal Speedway’s annual Tuscarora 50 featuring High Limit Racing, but the former Port Royal track champion is already reset and refocused, setting aim west to Wheatland, Missouri, where the High Limit “High Rollers” will invade Lucas Oil Speedway.

“Michael Dutcher and this Lifestyle Homes team works really hard, so I know we’re capable of a full recovery in Wheatland,” Zearfoss noted. “Tough results at Port Royal, but we’ll shake it off and get back to work in a hurry.”

Eddie Tafoya Jr. Racing USAC National Sprint Car Series in Pennsylvania

Chino Hills, CA — September 10, 2026 — After competing in the USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car Series at Kokomo Speedway in Indiana two weeks ago, Eddie Tafoya Jr. flew home to Southern California but left his beautiful #51T sprint car behind. He did so for good reason. This Friday and Saturday, the 29-year-old racer will return to USAC National competition at Lernerville Speedway in Western Pennsylvania.

This weekend will mark Tafoya’s first appearance at the historic 4/10-mile track in Sarver, approximately 30 miles from Pittsburgh. It will also be the USAC National Sprint Car Series' first visit to Lernerville in 15 years. Friday and Saturday's Commonwealth Clash events will mark Tafoya’s first races in the “Keystone State,” one of the nation’s biggest hotbeds for sprint car racing.

Following the Lernerville doubleheader, Tafoya will fly back to California next Tuesday while once again leaving the #51T in the Midwest. He will make one final trip back later this month to compete with the USAC National Sprint Cars in the prestigious 4-Crown Nationals, presented by NKTELCO, at Ohio’s legendary Eldora Speedway on September 24 and 26. The trip will mark his first appearance on Eldora’s intimidating, high-banked half-mile since May of 2023.

Once the Eldora weekend is complete, Tafoya will load up the car and equipment and make the long drive back to Southern California. From there, he will turn his attention to finishing the remainder of his 2026 racing campaign in the West.

For those who want to see Tafoya in action at Lernerville, both nights will be streamed live in their entirety on Flo Racing.

Eddie Tafoya can be followed on Instagram at eddietafoya51.

Team Tafoya Racing would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, BR Motorsports, King Racing Products, Gasper Transportation, CMI Precision Machining, Owen’s Insurance Services, Keen Concrete, DRC Chassis, and Rider Racing Engines for their continued support of the 2025 season. If you would like to join forces with the team for another fun and exciting year of racing in 2026, please contact Tafoya at Eddie Tafoya Jr. at (909) 393-3999 or mailto:teamtafoya@aol.com

Ross Rolls Into September: Three Straight Top Tens Highlight Stretch, Qualifying Remains the Missing Piece​

Lincoln University, PA – September 9, 2026

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt

Tyler Ross has found his rhythm in race trim over the past two weeks, picking up three straight top-ten finishes and four in his last five outings across stops at Lincoln Speedway and Selinsgrove Speedway.

The team has passed a combined 21 cars in A-main competition over that stretch — including a run from 20th to 10th at Lincoln Speedway — proof the speed is there.

The one piece still nagging at Tyler: qualifying.
A Quick Trip Back to a 410 Pays Off at Selinsgrove

Tyler had been looking forward to getting back into a 410 at Selinsgrove Speedway, and the August 30th visit didn’t disappoint. Leaning on notes from a previous run there in the No. 75 car, Tyler qualified 3rd overall, started 4th and finished 5th in his heat, then started 4th and drove to a 3rd-place finish in the A-main.

“We timed good, managed through the heat race, and missed the setup a little for the A-main,” Tyler said.

“We got a little help with the crash that took out two of the leaders, but I was able to pass a couple cars under green. The open red helped, and we made some adjustments and got better.”

Tyler noted Selinsgrove demands running up against the fence to find speed, and it took him a few laps to readjust to that style.

“We were pretty good this time, but I’m looking forward to coming back, because now we know what we need to be really good,” he said.

The team expects to return to Selinsgrove in October.
A Familiar Story at Lincoln Speedway

Tyler made three trips to Lincoln Speedway during the stretch — August 29th, September 5th, and September 6th — and the same story played out each time. Qualifying never put him better than 10th, and one night he rolled off 20th of 30 cars, but Tyler and the team quietly went to work from there.

Strong runs through the heats set up a starting spot in the A-main, and from there Tyler methodically sliced through the field each night, closing out with a 10th, a 10th, and an 11th — three straight top-ten-caliber runs built on nothing but hard-earned forward progress.

“To be honest, we suck early in the nights,” Tyler said with a laugh.

“We had a midseason lull where we couldn’t pass anyone, but now we’ve got our race trim back to where it was earlier in the year.“
The Qualifying Question

Starting further back has become the recurring theme of Tyler’s season, and he’s the first to admit it.

“I time-trial good at Selinsgrove, but historically I’ve struggled in qualifying, even back to my start in smaller cars,” he said.

“We’re working hard to figure it out, but I think it might mostly be my — our — mentality. We lost confidence in our qualifying program. We have speed, and the car races well. If we can qualify better and start closer to the front, we know we can run up there and contend for wins.”

As a driver, Tyler said he actually relishes the challenge of time trials — chasing every tenth of a second the car has to give. He isn’t worried about making bold changes to the qualifying setup at the expense of his race-night speed.

“It’s possible to take big swings at the qualifying setup and go back to our known race trim. That isn’t an issue, but we have to find the right changes to make for qualifying.”

The bigger challenge, he said, is translating notes from track to track.

“We’re not making speed down the straightaways. It could be a motor tuning thing, could be our corner exit setup, could be our corner entry setup, could be my driving style on entry or exit.”

“When the track slows down, our straightaway speed improves. It’s tough when you’re really close — I’d rather be a full second off quick time than one-tenth of a second. It’s easier to make big adjustments to find a second than it is to figure out how to gain one tenth. That could be the car, or it might just be a small adjustment by the driver, like when I lift or when I get back on the gas in the corner.”
Why the Top Tens Matter

Beyond the standings, Tyler pointed to the practical side of consistent finishes.

“We have great partners who make this possible, but getting top tens helps keep the team going — it helps pay the weekly expenses,” he said.

“I respect everyone who is out there racing. It’s a tough deal all around but especially financially. I’m not sure how teams keep racing these days if they’re finishing at the back, because everything is expensive right now. The fuel to get to and from the track, our tires and parts — everything is up.”
Looking Ahead

Tyler and the team are taking this weekend off before returning to action September 18th at Williams Grove Speedway and September 19th at BAPS Motor Speedway.

Championship season concludes Saturday with Forni-Humphreys Classic

By Gary Thomas

Placerville, CA…The biggest point race of the Berco Building Materials campaign invades Placerville Speedway this Saturday September 12th with the $8,500 to win “Forni-Humphreys Classic” set to finish off the championship fight in style.

The 21st running of the event will crown four champions in CaliDirt.TV victory lane on Saturday. The winner of the Thompson’s Family of Dealerships Winged 360 Sprint Car feature will earn a solid $8,500-to-win this weekend.

Justyn Cox, Rod Oliver, Nick Baldwin and Noah LaPoint look to bring home the Thompson’s Winged Sprint Car, Kings Meat Ltd. Late Model, Red Hawk Casino Pure Stock and Mountain Democrat Mini Truck titles respectively.

Hirst Home Team Happy Hour with live music and discounted Coors Light/ Coors Banquet Beer takes place from 4-6pm. Magician Anthony Orciuoli will also be on hand to entertain the youngsters, while Kings Meats All Angus Beef Cheeseburgers continue to be just $6 at the Speedway Café.

The Forni family has a great history in El Dorado County, with deep ties to the El Dorado County Fairgrounds and much of the land on which it sits. Much like his forefathers, Mark Forni had a great passion for the county fair and its attributes, especially the racetrack.

From the time he was a young child and the days when Placerville Speedway was known as Hangtown Speedway, Mark was actively involved with the weekly auto races, always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need involved with the sport he loved.

Later in life, Mark continued his contributions to local auto racing, sponsoring many race teams with his business, Forni’s Trucking. He later became a member of the El Dorado County Fair Board and focused on the issues regarding the future of the fair and the speedway.

Mark Forni believed in working relationships. He understood the importance of race promoters, sponsorships, and the one key element for every event to be successful, the spectator.

In November of 2004, Mark was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma. During his final months, Mark had the opportunity to say goodbye to friends and family and spend some special moments with his wife and children, a bittersweet time for those who knew and loved him so much. In the summer of 2005, Mark passed away at the early age of 45.

Saturday is also our way of remembering our fellow friend C.J. Humphreys, who we lost in February of 2023.

Affectionately known as the “Happy Camper” C.J. ranks number six in all-time Winged 360 Sprint Car wins on the red clay, having earned 25 victories in his career. He also holds the honor of being the original North vs South Civil War Series champion during the 1991 season.

Chris and his No. 85 Sprint Car were synonymous in the Placerville Speedway pit area over the years. His competitive spirit and all-around good-natured attitude have been sorely missed around the track.

Dominic Scelzi Grateful for Opportunity With CJB Motorsports

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (Sept. 8, 2026) – Dominic Scelzi is appreciative for the experience to drive for CJB Motorsports the last three weeks throughout a West Coast Swing for Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing.

“It was a fantastic experience,” he said. “I had a lot of fun and learned a lot. Those guys were amazing to work with. It seemed like it took us too long to get on the right page. We kept having moments, but not full nights. I’m just thankful they thought of me to put in their car as Brenham (Crouch) heals.”

The best result of the 10-race partnership occurred on Aug. 31 at Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Ore., where Scelzi maneuvered from 15th to a ninth-place finish.

“I felt like it was one of those nights when we had to overcome adversity as well,” he said. “We had a fuel pickup issue, but we qualified just good enough and heat raced just good enough. In the main event, we were able to pass some good cars. We had moments throughout our time together when we were a top 10, but couldn’t seem to get over the hump other than that night.”

Scelzi tied for the most positions gained after charging from 23rd to 14th at Santa Maria Speedway in Santa Maria, Calif., on Aug. 20. He advanced from 26th to 13th at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, Calif., on Aug. 28. Scelzi highlighted last weekend’s Skagit Nationals at Skagit Speedway with a run from 25th to 14th on Friday.

“Their program is a lot different than our program so I had to learn what would work,” he said. “We hit it off, but it was a matter of getting myself comfortable and what worked for me in their program. We tried really hard to gel quickly and put ourselves in position to be better.

“We passed race cars. They were 13th in points when we teamed up and now they are 11th in points so that’s a positive.”

Arenz triples up at 141 Speedway

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 8, 2026 – The third time proved charming for Travis Arenz and the members of the Travis Arenz Motorsports Team in racking up the third A-main victory of the 2026 season and 410 Sprint Car career win No. 3 at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis., in Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association action on Saturday, Sept. 5.

The Sheboygan Falls, Wis. competitor placed sixth in the 22-car field at 141 Speedway with a lap of 11.041 seconds on the quarter-mile egg-shaped clay oval. After earning a third-place showing in the third heat race and a second-place finish in dash 1, Arenz started third in the 30-lap main event.

On lap 18, Arenz found himself in fourth in the running order before turning it up in the closing laps. The 2016 141 Speedway Northern Sport Mod champion moved to third on lap 19 before claiming second on lap 25.

Arenz, who topped the national touring High Limit Racing Series to win the $26,000 Rayce Rudeen Foundation race at 141 in 2025, stalked race leader Jake Blackhurst in the closing laps before stealing away the lead on lap 27 en route to his third A-main win of the 2026 campaign, and third 410 Sprint Car victory at 141 Speedway.

The triumph also marked Arenz’s seventh career 410 Sprint Car victory and the 77th overall A-main win of his career

“I’m very happy to be able to pick up another win this season,” Arenz said. “We executed the night very well. I was able to put down a good qualifying lap, lock into the dash, and bring home the win. The car was good all night. I could have made a few minor adjustments at the start of the feature. I was a little too loose. But once the fuel load started lightening up, the car was great.”

The team moved north with the IRA to The Hill Raceway in Sturgeon Bay, Wis. on Sunday, Sept. 6, where Arenz qualified eighth in the 22-car field with a lap of 14.019 seconds. He then placed second in the second heat race and claimed fourth in the first dash to start seventh in the 30-lap headliner.

Arenz advanced steadily into the top five throughout the race before coming home fourth to nail down his 11th top-five finish of the 2026 campaign.

“At The Hill, I feel like we qualified decently for where I was in the lineup and considering the track conditions,” Arenz said. “After a full track rework, we had a much better racing surface. This was a track where I had to be consistent and hit my marks. I was able to pass a few cars in the feature, but, ultimately, I needed to be just a little better driving-wise and set-up wise.”

After capturing the 2025 Wilmot Raceway 410 Sprint Car track title, Arenz is set to vie for a second consecutive championship this Friday, Sept. 11 at the third annual Wilmot Fall Classic. He heads into the 2026 Wilmot 410 Sprint Car season finale with a 31-point lead at the top of the standings over Matt VanderVere.

Spectator gates open at 4 p.m. with hot laps at 6 p.m. and racing commencing at 7 p.m.

There will be no live streaming available for this event.

Dover Excited for MSTS Series Event at Off Road Speedway This Saturday

Inside Line Promotions – SPRINGFIELD, Neb. (Sept. 8, 2026) – Jack Dover is closing in on his second straight Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series championship.

Dover and Tim Estenson Motorsports have built a 47-point lead in the championship standings with only three points races remaining this season. The next event is this Saturday at Off Road Speedway in Norfolk, Neb., where Dover has six feature victories and has finished inside the top 10 during all 12 of his career starts.

“It’s a track where we’ve always ran well,” he said. “I enjoy the atmosphere and the fans, and also have a lot of confidence there. In racing, 90 percent of it is confidence. Hopefully we can go in there and at least keep our top-10 streak going.”

Dover leads the MSTS Series with three victories, eight top fives and nine top 10s in his nine feature starts this season.

“I haven’t raced a ton, but feel like we’ve put together strong nights consistently,” he said. “We don’t have many races remaining on the schedule this year so we’re looking to continue to run well and contend for more wins.”

Mallett Produces Podium at Dixie and Top Five at Talladega

Inside Line Promotions – EASTABOGA, Ala. (Sept. 8, 2026) – Jordon Mallett posted a pair of top-five finishes last weekend during a USCS Series doubleheader.

Mallett and car owner A.G. Rains ventured to Dixie Speedway in Woodstock, Ga., on Saturday. A heat race win followed by a fourth-place finish in the dash lined the team up on the outside of the second row in the main event.

“I left disappointed we didn’t win because we had a great race car, but our results showed it was a good night,” Mallett said. “We just needed to be a little bit better earlier in the feature. We were good early and the leader was great early on. He put us at a tall deficit by the time we got to second. The race went green to checkered and I would have paid to have a caution. Our stuff got great with about six laps to go. We really came alive. If that happened a little earlier or we got a caution I think we could have been one spot better.”

Mallett’s runner-up result was his eighth podium of the season.

The team headed to Talladega Short Track on Sunday, opening the night with a fourth-place showing in a heat race. That narrowly missed a spot into the dash and started Mallett on the inside of the fifth row in the main event.

“It was a frustrating night for the fact that we had an absolute fast race car the whole time and circumstances didn’t play out well,” he said. “Our heat race starting position penalized us because the track was one lane. The first start I managed really good, but they called it back. On the second start, we fell to fourth as the bottom row didn’t take off like the top row did. We missed the dash and had to recover from there. The feature went okay. We quickly got to fifth within the first five laps. There was a red flag and once we got going again we weren’t good enough to move forward the way the track was.”

Mallett’s fifth-place outing marked his 12th top five of the year.

QUICK RESULTS –

Sept. 5 – Dixie Speedway in Woodstock, Ga. – Heat race: 1 (1); Dash: 4 (4); Feature: 2 (4).

Sept. 6 – Talladega Short Track in Eastaboga, Ala. – Heat race: 4 (3); Feature: 5 (9).

Pokorski files surprise 141 entry, eyes Wilmot return

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 8, 2026 – Although it wasn’t in the original plans, Alex Pokorski and the GR8 Team made a late decision to pay a visit to 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis., for a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series event on Saturday, Sept. 5.

Pokorski opened the night by qualifying 14th in the 22-car field with a lap of 11.344 on the quarter-mile egg-shaped clay oval. After launching from the fifth starting slot in the second eight-lap heat race, the West Bend, Wis. native suffered front axle damage after contacting an infield tire on lap 2. The damage forced him to retire from the race.

With a new front axle on his No. 4 machine, Pokorski started the 30-lap main event from 19th and recovered from a spin to post an 18th-place showing in his eighth A main of the 2026 season.

“Rough night is the first thing that comes to mind about 141,” Pokorski said. “I clipped an infield tire early in the heat race. The crew worked hard to get the front axle changed for the feature. Then we [and mostly me] made the wrong set-up decisions, and I just felt very uncomfortable in the feature. We had lots of family and friends around, so that part of the night was enjoyable even if the on-track results weren’t great.”

Pokorski and the GR8 crew will head back to Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. this Friday, Sept. 11 for an open 410 Sprint Car contest as part of the track’s third annual Fall Classic.

Spectator gates open at 4 p.m. with hot laps at 6 p.m. and racing commencing at 7 p.m.

There will be no live streaming available for this event.

The Alex Pokorski-GR8 Team is also scheduled to compete with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series in the prestigious 48th annual Jackson Nationals at Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minn. on Friday, Sept. 18 and Saturday, Sept. 19.

Spectator gates open at 5 p.m. with hot laps at 6:30 p.m. and racing at 7:30 p.m. on both nights.

The Jackson Nationals will be broadcast live on floracing.com.

“We’re looking forward to Wilmot on Friday, followed by Jackson the next week,” Pokorski said. “My goals would be to finish top five again at Wilmot and better our finish from last year's Jackson Nationals.”

Hartmann tallies top 10 at 141

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 8, 2026 – Austin Hartmann and the 87A Hartmann Racing team hooked back up with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis. on Saturday, Sept. 5, posting a solid top-10 showing as part of a doubleheader Labor Day weekend of 410 Sprint Car competition.

The Plymouth, Wis. driver clocked in eighth in the 22-car field with a time of 11.122 seconds before placing second in the second heat race and fifth in dash 1 to earn the ninth starting spot in the 30-lap headliner.

Hartmann held strong throughout the contest to come home 10th for his fifth top-10 main event finish of the 2026 campaign.

One night later, the team ventured north to The Hill Raceway in Sturgeon Bay, Wis., where Hartmann flew out of the gate to lay down the second-fastest qualifying lap of the 22 entries with a lap of 13.236 around the third-mile, slightly banked Door County clay oval.

Following a fourth-place showing in heat two, Hartmann placed fifth in the second dash to claim the 10th starting position in the 30-lap main event.

Hartmann was running 10th when contact with the outside wall sent him to the work area on lap 10. After returning to the track, he capped off the event with a 14th-place finish.

“I can’t catch a break in dash draws,” Hartmann said. “That pretty much sums up the weekend. I’d like to get ourselves back in podium position by the end of the year.”

Hartmann is set to head to Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. this Friday, Sept. 11 for an open 410 Sprint Car race as part of the track’s third annual Fall Classic.

Reutzel takes High Limit pot at Douglas County, scores podium in Skagit Nationals; Port Royal’s Tuscarora 50 next

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (September 8, 2026) - It was a one night stop in Oregon, but one night is all they needed, as Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing concluded Douglas County Dirt Track’s SugarBee Showdown on the River pres. by Seven Feathers Casino Resort with a triumph on Monday, August 31.

Reutzel, now with 14 total victories on the season, led every circuit of Roseburg, Oregon’s 35-lap contest, capping what was already a perfect evening that commenced with a heat race and dash victory.

With little time to celebrate, High Limit Racing’s tour of the Pacific Northwest continued with Skagit Speedway’s annual Skagit Nationals on September 3-5. Although “A-Aron” was unable to repeat his Oregon successes in Washington, he did the next best thing and concluded the Skagit tripleheader with a runner-up score in the $126,000-to-win finale on Saturday, September 5.

In fact, Reutzel, who is currently second in the High Limit Racing national championship standings, finished no worse than fifth in his entire Skagit output which also included runner-up and fifth-place outcomes in the Skagit Nationals preliminaries on September 3-4.

“Super proud of what we were able to accomplish. We put together consistency from start to finish and that’s tough to top,” Ryan Wyant, Ridge & Sons Racing Team Manager, said. “The plan is to transfer all our momentum right to Port Royal. Aaron [Reutzel] certainly knows his way around the Speed Palace and I’m confident he’ll find his way back toward the front.”

ON DECK: Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing will continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with Port Royal Speedway’s Tuscarora 50 on Thursday through Saturday, September 10-12.

COAST-TO-COAST: Madsen and Vermeer Motorsports eager for Port Royal return

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

MIFFLINTOWN, Pa. (September 8, 2026) - High Limit Racing’s West Coast tour through California, Oregon, and Washington is finally complete, but their September slate is far from ever, eager to continue action with a Pennsylvania staple - Port Royal Speedway’s annual Tuscarora 50 - on Thursday through Saturday, September 10-12.

Celebrating 59 years in 2026, the three-day Tuscarora 50, which will coincide with the Juniata County Fair, will not only feature High Limit’s long list of “High Rollers,” but in addition, a stout contingent of Pennsylvania’s finest, all vying for Saturday’s $59,000 top prize. In fact, the Port Royal appearance will be High Limit’s final Pennsylvania visit of the season, turning their attention back to the Midwest for the remainder of 2026.

Kerry Madsen, the ace of Tony Vermeer’s Vermeer Motorsports, TK Concrete, Maxim Trucking & Materials, Logan Contractors, No. 55 sprinter, will roll into Port Royal, Pennsylvania, with high hopes and heavy expectations, eager to transform a recent momentum shift into winning potential. The Knoxville, Iowa, wheelman via St Marys, New South Wales, Australia, has finished no worse than 16th in recent High Limit Racing starts, qualifying for all three of Skagit Speedway’s Skagit Nationals A-Mains with his top outcome a 13th-place finish in the Friday night preliminary on September 4.

Madsen raced on to finish 16th in the $126,000-to-win finale on Saturday, September 5.

“We’re pretty excited to get back to our own shop…it’s been a while,” Tye Wolfgang, Vermeer Motorsports Crew Chief, stated. “With Port Royal Speedway right down the street from our shop in Mifflintown, it’s going to make things a touch easier. We’re excited to battle for a big payday right in our own back yard.”

THE BEST FOR LAST: Jace Park concludes POWRi triple with victory at Lake Ozark Speedway

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (September 8, 2026) - Jace Park was the man to beat Sunday night at Lake Ozark Speedway in Eldon, Missouri, concluding the “Labor Day at the Lake: The People’s Race at Lake Ozark Speedway” with a $7,000 triumph. Impressive, nonetheless, Park’s first-ever POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League victory was accomplished in dramatic fashion, powering ahead from eighth on the grid before leading the final nine circuits, all of which concluding with a turn four drag race to checkers.

Park’s victory occurred during night three of POWRi’s three-race Labor Day Weekend swing, commencing officially with a visit to 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa, on Friday, September 4. The ace of the Associates Insurance Group, Impact Signs/Awnings/Wraps, Adki Landscaping, FinanciaLife Outfitters, Clem Helmets, Maxim Racing, Weld, Flying A Motorsports, Schoenfeld Headers, Allstar Performance, No. 28 sprinter, finished fourth in his Iowa attempt, utilizing a heat race victory to propel himself to the evening’s A-Main.

Unfortunately, Park’s first attempt at Lake Ozark Speedway on Saturday - night one of the “Labor Day at the Lake” special - was shrouded in bad luck; he was scored 22nd.

“Man, what a race. It took us a while to find the speed and get there, but I knew there was something low in turns one and two. That last restart made my race,” said Jace Park in Lake Ozark victory lane. “We worked all night—up until 3 a.m.—on this car. It wasn’t perfect tonight, but it was perfect for me.”

Doney-Lawson Racing strong in POWRi Labor Day triple; Benton Speedway’s “Winged Fall Frenzy" to continue Series action September 12

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

ODESSA, Mo. (September 8, 2026) - It was a busy weekend across the Midwest for Xavier Doney, Natalie Doney, and Doney-Lawson Racing, concluding their POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League tripleheader through Iowa and Missouri with consistency, as well as success, all of which highlighted with back-to-back top-fives.

Xavier Doney, the eldest of the Doney siblings who wheel for Doney-Lawson Racing, scored each of the aforementioned top-fives, the first a runner-up result at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa, on Friday, September 4, followed by a third-place finish in Lake Ozark Speedway’s “Labor Day at the Lake” opener on Saturday, September 5. Impressive, to say the least, Doney’s effort at 34 Raceway was one corner from victory, losing the top spot to Ryan Newton in a drag race to the checkers.

Unfortunately, the ace of the Kat Excavation, Pella Building Systems-Mini Storage Specialists, Schnee-Lawson Chassis, Motor Haven, Five Star Bodies, Stanton Racing Engines, CALI Floors, Wilwood Disc Brakes, DMI, Schaeffer Oil, Outlaw Wings, Schoenfeld Headers, Smith Titanium, Design Source Flooring, No. 74 sprinter was unable to repeat his podium output in Lake Ozark’s “Labor Day at the Lake” finale on Sunday, September 6 - Xavier was scored 11th. Despite the fact, the Odessa, Missouri, wheelman sits third in POWRi’s championship, a mere-110 points out of the top spot.

Natalie Doney, Xavier’s younger sister and teammate at Doney-Lawson Racing, also had a productive weekend across the Central Time Zone, earning A-Main starts in two of the three contests, finishing 16th at 34 Raceway and 12th in Lake Ozark Speedway’s weekend finale. The young lady out of Odessa is currently 11th in the POWRi standings, padded by one top-ten and a slew of effort.

SIX-DIGIT STREAK: Rico Abreu cashes in for another six-digit payday in Skagit Speedway’s Skagit Nationals; Tuscarora 50 next

2026 High Limit Racing National Team Standings: First | Points: 2436

BROWNSBURG, Ind.

Abreu, the ace of Tony Stewart’s Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing (TSR), Carquest, Curb Records, Sugarbee Apples, Waste Connections, Arc Zone, Martin One Source, Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, No. 24 sprinter, secured his Skagit Nationals triumph from the front row, earning his way into the weekend’s big dance via back-to-back podiums - finishing third and second, respectively - in Skagit Nationals preliminary competition on Thursday and Friday, September 3-4.

No easy feat, Abreu was forced to battle Tanner Thorson for his eventual Skagit Nationals crown, swapping the lead on several occasions before locking down the top spot for the final time on lap 26.

Joel Myers Jr Scores Third and Fifth Place Finishes at Louie Vermeil Classic

 PETERSEN MEDIA: Finally getting the chance to compete at Calistoga Speedway, the Sebastopol, CA resident made the most of his debut as he scored a third-place finish on Saturday night before finishing fifth during Sunday night’s finale.

“To finally get a chance to compete at Calistoga Speedway was really special,” Joel Myers Jr said. “Who knows what the future for this place is, so to take advantage of the weekend close to home, and run very well, was really cool.”

Taking part in the winged 360 portion of Louie Vermeil Classic weekend, Myers Jr was one of four drivers to time in under the track’s existing track record on Saturday night as he ended up third fastest aboard the Graham Rahal Performance/Gary Tennyson Motorsports/All About Fire Protection backed No. 46 Jr.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, Myers Jr nailed the loud pedal as the field came to green and he jumped into the early lead. Pulling away from the field, Myers Jr was able to lead all 12 laps as he picked up the win before pulling the three in the nightly redraw.

Following extensive track work prior to the 25-lap feature rolling out on the famed ½ mile, Myers Jr settled into third as the green lights flashed on. With the track having a ton of grip, passing was essentially nonexistent as he settled into third and chased after Justyn Cox and Shane Golobic who ran just in front of him.

With the race going non-stop, Myers Jr was able to maintain the position and close his night out with a podium finish as he ran third in his first ever appearance at the facility.

Back in action on Sunday night to wrap up the weekend, Myers Jr didn’t get his night started quite how he had hoped as he ended up 10th fastest in time trials.

Hoping to make up some ground in his heat race to better his feature event starting position, the youngster had a great start as he powered his way into third as the field made their way down the back stretch.

With his third-place finish, Myers Jr moved into the 25-lap finale where he rolled off the starting grid from the sixth starting spot. As the feature came to life, Myers Jr was able to work his way into fifth as the field quickly began to click off laps.

For the second consecutive night the race went caution free, but as the leaders got strung out it was hard to make up ground on the ½ mile surface. Getting through traffic with ease, Myers Jr went on to close his weekend out with a fifth-place finish.

“I really want to thank my guys for their hard work all weekend long,” Myers Jr said. “With having to pit in the infield, Calistoga makes for a bit of some added work and everyone worked well together. Also, a big thank you to all of the great people who support this team and make weekends like this possible. It was great to race in front of my family, and so many friends.”

Joel Myers Jr and Hayward Motorsports would like to thank Velocity Engineering, Installtec Inc., RPM Chassis, DirtDudes Excavating, FK Rod Ends, Russ Wentcamp, The GR8 Company, All About Fire Protection, Sam Carbis Solutions Group, Brad Alexander Suspension, Jim O’Neal Ford, Blackburn Construction, Al Parker Engines, Nitro Alley Graphics, and Brown and Miller Racing Solutions.

Colby Copeland and C&M Motorsports Win ‘The Louie’

PETERSEN MEDIA- Traveling to Calistoga Speedway over the weekend for the Louie Vermeil Classic, Colby Copeland and his C&M Motorsports team celebrated a big victory on Sunday night after a fourth-place finish on Saturday.

“Saturday night we didn’t get our weekend off to a great start, but we worked hard on our car and by Sunday we were really good,” Colby Copeland said. “It is really cool to win another Louie for myself and get the C&M Motorsports team their first.”

Saturday night the weekend got started with Copeland timing the NOS Energy Drink/Lund Construction/Anrak backed No. 7c, 13th fastest in qualifying time trials.

A dicey start to the heat race saw Copeland eventually come to a stop in turns one and two before restarting at the tail end of the field. When the heat made its second start attempt, Copeland got a great jump as he quickly began working his way forward.

Getting into fifth, Copeland took advantage of Bubba DeCaires getting out of shape in front of him as he took over the fourth spot in the closing laps. With his run to fourth, Copeland improved his feature event starting position drastically as he took the green flag from the seventh starting position.

After an extensive track prep session, Copeland and the rest of the field took the green for the 25-lapper and Copeland again started to do what many struggled to do and that was pass cars.

Slowly working his way forward, Copeland got up to fourth as he chased after the likes of Joel Myers Jr who ran just ahead of him as well as the lead duo of Justyn Cox and Shane Golobic.

Unable to crack a spot on the podium, Copeland closed the opening night out with a fourth-place finish.

Back in action for Sunday night’s finale, the Roseville, CA driver got off to a red-hot start as he timed in third fastest in qualifying before running away with a heat race win.

Drawing the one in the redraw, Copeland led the field to green alongside Caden Steele.

When the green flag flew, it was Steele getting the jump as Copeland slipped back to second and began his pursuit for the top spot. Fending off an early challenge for second, Copeland was able to reel Steele in and make his winning move on the 18th lap. Jumping into the lead, Copeland was able to comfortably race his way to the win and score his first win with C&M Motorsports which also gave the team their first ever ‘Louie’.

Tanner Carrick Scores 4 Top-10’s During Busy Louie Vermeil Classic Weekend

PETERSEN MEDIA: The only driver to do double duty at the Louie Vermeil Classic, Tanner Carrick had a solid weekend in both cars as he picked up four Top-10 finishes in total.

“I was really happy with how our weekend went in both cars,” Tanner Carrick said. “We were fast all weekend long and we were pretty consistent.”

Opening the weekend up on Saturday night, Carrick timed his winged car in seventh fastest before a ninth quick effort in USAC/CRA competition.

Picking up third place finishes in both heat races, Carrick then lined up sixth in the winged feature, and 11th in the non-wing feature event.

Following extensive track prep prior to the winged feature, Carrick was set for the 25-lapper as he took the green flag from the outside of the third row. When the race went green on the fast surface, Carrick slipped back to seventh in the opening set of corners.

From that moment, the field settled into a fast pace and got strung out as passing became extremely difficult. With the feature going nonstop, Carrick closed his first feature of the weekend out with a seventh-place finish.

Just minutes after the conclusion of the winged race, the Lincoln, CA driver was strapped into the non-winged car as he was set to take the green flag from the sixth row for the 30-lap finale.

As the action came to life, Carrick was able to make some moves as he quickly worked his way into the Top-10. Getting into 10th, Carrick continued to battle as he raced his way to an eighth-place finish when the checkered flag was displayed to the field.

Back for another round of double-duty action on Sunday, Carrick got the night underway by timing the CVC/Cemex/Interstate Oil backed No. 83T winged car in fifth fastest in time trials before timing in 16th fastest with USAC/CRA.

Finishing fourth in his winged heat, and seventh in the non-winged heat, Carrick found himself lining up seventh in the 25-lap winged feature and 13th in the 30-lap USAC/CRA feature.

For the second night in a row, the winged race would go off without a hitch as the field ripped off 25-laps consecutively. With passing tough as the field again strung out quickly, Carrick settled into seventh at the drop of the green and maintained his position for the rest of the race. Finishing seventh, Carrick then turned his attention to USAC action as he was slated to roll off from the 13th starting position.

With the track starting to widen out at the conclusion of the winged race, it created a racy surface in the non-winged feature as Carrick was able to slowly work his way towards the Top-10.

A couple of restarts worked in Carrick’s favor as he was able to work his way into seventh in the non-winged feature, where he went on to finish and close out a very consistent weekend.

“I really want to thank everyone who helped out all weekend,” Tanner Carrick said. “It was no small task to run double duty at this race, and we had a solid group in our corner.”

Tanner Carrick would like to thank CVC, Cemex, Interstate Oil, D.R. Horton, Conti, Harris and Sloan, Hanson Truss, TC Guide Service, Eddie’s Lincoln Auto Body, Simpson Strong-Tie, A&A Concrete Supply, Kaeding Performance, and Arai for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts: 47, Wins: -0, Top 5’s: 10, Top 10’s: 27

ON TAP: Tanner Carrick will be back in action on Saturday night at Placerville Speedway for the Forni/Humphreys Classic.

Andy Forsberg Posts Pair of Top-10’s at Louie Vermeil Classic



PETERSEN MEDIA: Spending the weekend in Calistoga, CA for the annual Louie Vermeil Classic, Andy Forsberg and the PHR Racing team pocketed a pair of Top-10’s during the Sharktales with Andy 360 Cup portion of the event.

“We definitely weren’t great both nights, and I wished we could have run better but, in the end, we did still pick up a couple of Top-10’s,” Forsberg said. “I thought the overall event itself was great, and really feel like it was a good send off for the Hunt family.”

The racing action kicked off Saturday night for Forsberg and company as the Auburn, CA driver timed the Pacific Highway Rentals/Wilkie Masonry/Western Traffic Supply backed No. 92 in eighth fastest in time trials.

Moving into heat race/qualifier action, Forsberg’s fifth place finish put him in the fifth row for the opening night 25-lap feature event. When the feature event went green, the field filtered around the scenic ½ mile and Forsberg eventually settled into eighth.

Once the field got strung out, the race moved extremely fast. Going 25 non-stop laps, Forsberg capped the opener off with an eighth-place finish.

Returning to action on Sunday night for the finale, Forsberg kicked his night off by timing in ninth fastest on this night before recording a fifth-place finish in his heat race.

Moving into the 25-lap feature event, the Auburn, CA driver took the green flag from the ninth starting position. Just as it was on Saturday night, the 360 feature went off without a hitch as it again went nonstop. Settling into ninth as the race went green, the field again stretched out and there wasn’t a lot of opportunity for passing.

Keeping his mount inside the Top-10 all race long, Forsberg closed his weekend out with a ninth-place finish.

“Thanks to my team for their hard work all weekend,” Forsberg said. “Calistoga is just a unique place that forces everyone to work a little harder and I am thankful to have a solid group behind me.”

Andy Forsberg and PHR Racing would like to thank Pacific Highway Rentals, Wilkie Masonry, Western Traffic Supply, PitStopUSA, Red Line Oil, FK Rod Ends, Autism Awareness, Parking and Transportation Group, MCK, 1st Vanguard, Highway Specialty Co., and KBJ Catering for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races- 37, Wins-8, Top 5’s-21, Top 10’s-25

ON TAP: Andy Forsberg and the PHR team are scheduled to return to Placerville Speedway on Saturday night for the Forni/Humphreys Classic.

Paul Nienhiser 2nd at The Hill Raceway

PETERSEN MEDIA: Making his way to the state of Wisconsin over the weekend for a pair of IRA events, Paul Nienhiser finished sixth at 141 Speedway on Saturday night before running second on Sunday night at The Hill Raceway.

“I haven’t been qualifying great, and we battled that both nights over the weekend,” Paul Nienhiser said. “We kept working on our car all weekend long, and we were okay on Saturday night, and on Sunday night I think we had a shot to win if I made a couple of different decisions.”

Checking in at 141 Speedway on Saturday night, Nienhiser timed the AGRI-YIELD/CAM2 Lubricants/Midland Performance No. 9x entry in 11th fastest in time trials forcing him to win his heat race for a shot into the night’s Dash.

Lining up on the pole of his heat, the Chapin, IL driver hit the loud pedal as the green lights flashed on, and he jumped into the race lead. Picking up the win, Nienhiser punched his ticket into the Dash where he then drew the two.

Finishing fourth in the Dash, Nienhiser lined up in the fourth row of the feature event, and admittedly never was able to get going. Battling inside the Top-10 all race long, Nienhiser closed the night out with a sixth-place finish.

Traveling to The Hill Raceway on Sunday night, Nienhiser again didn’t quite get off to the start to the night he had hoped for as he again timed in 11th fastest in time trials.

Able to once again win his heat, Nienhiser was in the Dash where a third-place finish placed him in the fifth starting spot for the 30-lap feature event.

Powering into fourth as the feature event went green, Nienhiser looked solid in the Top-Five as he clicked off quick laps using the low side of the speedway. Moving to the top of the track, Nienhiser worked his way into second as he saw challengers poke their nose underneath him, he opted to move back to the bottom.

A late restart saw Nienhiser keep pace with the race leader, but he wasn’t able to make a late bid for the win, and capped the weekend off with a second-place finish.

“I wonder if I should have stayed committed to the top a little long on Sunday night, but once I saw a nose wing, I opted to change my line” he added. “I felt like I could pace the leader late, but he never made a mistake and we came away with a runner up finish.”

Nienhiser would like to thank AGRI-YIELD, CAM2 Lubricants, Midland Performance Inc., MB Heating & Cooling Inc., Buffalo Wild Wings, T&K Tree Services, Morrow Brothers Ford Inc., American Rental Center, Signature Signs, The ID | SP, Bradshaw Custom Pumping, Wessler Bros. Agency Inc., Haverfield Construction-Concrete, Steve’s Towing, Dropped Mobile, Mason Sound, AB&C Moving, Bayer Crop Science, Dekalb/Asgrow, Engler Machine and Tool, Rider Racing Engines, K1 Race Gear, and Super Shox for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races-26, Wins-9, Top 5’s-15, Top 10’s-32

ON TAP: Nienhiser will be back in action on Friday night with MOWA at Jacksonville Speedway.

BIG MONEY AWAITS CRSA ON COLE CUP NIGHT AT UTICA-ROME, FOLLOW UP WITH TRIP TO THUNDER MOUNTAIN ON LABOR DAY

Zach Sobotka.jpg

Press Release By: Marty Czekala – September 5, 2026

A huge Labor Day weekend is set for the A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints, with a lot of money up for grabs night one.

Sunday, CRSA returns to Utica-Rome Speedway for a special show-up points event underneath the Empire Super Sprints with a $3000-to-win, $300-to-start event.

If a driver sweeps both sprint car events, they will receive a $5000 bonus, leaving with a total of $18000.

If no sweep, the top three drivers who run both classes will receive money from a $2000 point fund. $1000 to the winner, $600 to second and $400 to third.

Labor Day Monday goes back to Thunder Mountain Speedway for a $1000-to-win Joe’s Garage Southern Tier Series event.

At Utica-Rome, it is the third trip to “The Home of Heroes” in 2026. Earlier this year, Mike Kiser ended a near four-year winless streak to score his 10th career win, while Zach Sobotka scored his second win of 2026 a couple of weeks ago.

As for Thunder Mountain, it is the second trip to Center Lisle this season. Last time out, Dalton Herrick, at his home track, ended a near two-year winless streak of over 30 races to score his 11th career CRSA victory.

Here’s a look at what’s on tap for this weekend.

Last Time Out: Three weeks ago, CRSA was at Utica for an I-90 Pit Stop Challenge event.

Zach Sobotka, at the same track where he scored his first career CRSA victory last year, returned to Utica and passed Timmy Lotz in lapped traffic around the outside for his seventh career CRSA victory, tied for 12th on the all-time list.

“We always run good here,” said Sobotka. “This is one of those tracks that I seem to hit it pretty good all the time.”

Tyler Graves matched his career-best finish with a second while Timmy Lotz rounded out the podium in third.

Dalton Herrick also clinched the I-90 Pit Stop Challenge championship thanks to a pair of runner-up finishes he recorded at Fonda and Fulton.

Speaking of Herrick, the following night the series went to Thunder Mountain, and at a track the No. 29 has been good for years, Herrick scored his fifth win.

While Herrick moved his way to the front early, this race had some competition from fellow championship contender Tyler Graves. The No. 25G held the lead for some time, then the two traded barbs in a slide-job war for the win. On the restart, Graves commanded the field, but opened up the top for Herrick to take the lead and score the win.

“This is awesome,” said Herrick. “I love this place. I grew up in the turn four stands since this place opened. It’s always been really special for me and we’ve been struggling lately. This is amazing.”

“I needed to throw that last slider harder on him and not let him drive around me,” said Graves, who finished third. “Got to thank Dalton for that fun hard battle. Dalton’s my best friend on the road. I stayed at his house last night and then we got to come here and do this.”

Billy VanInwegen finished second at Thunder Mountain.

Point Standings: Graves’ pair of podiums in the last doubleheader was able to trim Herrick’s points lead down to 52 approaching the final races of the year.

Timmy Lotz remains third, 194 points behind.

Johnny Scarborough and Paul Colagiovanni Sr. continue to battle for fourth, with nine points separating the two.

Jerry Sehn Jr. is alone in sixth, 326 points back.

Nick Webb dropped to seventh after missing Thunder Mountain, now 399 points behind Herrick.

This could provide an interesting battle as Maverick Coffey is eighth within 23 points of Webb and Dustin Sehn is ninth, 19 points behind MTK.

Zach Sobotka (-694), Bailey Boyd (-833), and Kirsten Dombroski (-907) round out the top 12.

Heavy Car Count: Many drivers are expected to make the trip to Utica-Rome Sunday with a $3000-to-win, $300-to-start. That could make for a packed field and a busy night.

So packed, with some drivers from the Empire Super Sprints running double duty, there is a possibility that 50 drivers sign in, a number CRSA has never hit before.

The current car count record for CRSA is 48 at Weedsport May 2025. The last time at least 40 cars entered was when 42 signed in at Outlaw Oct. 2025; that was also a doubleheader.

Double Duty: At least five players plan to run double duty and have the chance at the $5000 bonus by running a 360. They include Dalton Herrick, Tyler Graves, Maverick Coffey, Spencer Burley and Jeff Trombley. Steve Glover, Mike Kiser and Chad Miller may also run a 360.

As for ESS regulars, Zach Sobotka, Jordan Hutton, Billy VanInwegen, Matt Tanner, Jordan Thomas, Davie Franek and Paulie Colagiovanni plan to run a 305 Sunday.

Sobotka’s Playground: Utica-Rome has been nice to Zach Sobotka ever since he began his sprint car career, and his past success there is part of why he enters this weekend with confidence.

Sobotka has scored two career CRSA victories at “The Home of Heroes,” including last time when the series went to Utica, when Sobotka gathered a big run on Timmy Lotz to take the lead in lapped traffic.

Big Money Makers: CRSA in recent years has been well known for races that have paid over $1000.

Last July’s event at Outlaw Speedway, which paid $2011 to win, featured Paul Colagiovanni Sr. winning his first career CRSA feature over Kyle Pierce and Jordan Thomas.

Also at Outlaw, Last October’s Hoag Memorial at Outlaw saw Dillon Paddock hold off Zach Sobotka in a barnburner that paid $ 4,000 to win.

Last year, the return of the New York 305 Nationals had Billy VanInwegen take home $4000 over Mikey Smith late in the going.

Oh So Close: Tyler Graves, a couple of weeks ago, needed a momentum booster after back-to-back last-place finishes. That turnaround has made his recent results worth watching this weekend.

It started at Utica-Rome where “TG” matched his career-best finish in second from the same track nearly two seasons ago.

Then at Thunder Mountain, the momentum needle nearly broke the gauge as Graves was poised for his first career feature win, until the final restart saw Herrick go by around the outside for the lead and the win. Graves, who decreased the gap on Herrick’s point lead, said he couldn’t wait to get back to racing after the two-week break and could see a win coming this weekend.

By The Numbers: Utica-Rome has been known for its parity of winners, with 18 drivers winning an A-Main. Jeff Trombley, Danny Varin, Mike Kiser and Zach Sobotka are the only repeat winners at the track, each with a pair. 54 different drivers have finished in the top five, with Jeff VanSteenburg and Trombley each with six.

At Thunder Mountain, 15 different drivers have won a CRSA feature. Only one driver has won multiple features at Center Lisle: Dalton Herrick, with five. Herrick has 11 top-fives, followed by Billy VanInwegen with seven.

Jason is a huge Sprint Car fan and we can’t wait to have the biggest 360 and 305 shows in the state this year! Second, our last race at Thunder Mountain was unbelievable. The racing was fantastic; our drivers loved the track. We’re confident and excited for another great track into our feature Labor Day. We hope you end your summer right with us!” ~ Mike Emhof

Sunday, September 6th: The Grand Finale
The ultimate exclamation point on the holiday weekend takes place Sunday night with a blockbuster four-division card featuring high-dollar purses and historic milestones. All the action gets underway at 6:00 PM.
Hovis Auto & Truck 410 Sprint Cars ($4,000 to Win)
The winged warriors headline Sunday's finale, gunning for a massive $4,000 top prize. This historic evening marks the 498th time since 1968 that the 410 Sprints have competed on the Tri-City half-mile, a legacy that boasts 104 different winners. This season, Brandon Spithaler has been the absolute man to beat with four victories, while veteran Bob Felmlee has claimed three. With a half-dozen other drivers holding checkered flags this year, the battle for the 498th historic victory will be legendary.
RUSH Touring Late Model Series ($4,000 to Win)
The best crate late model drivers in the region roll into town for their own $4,000-to-win touring showdown. Parity has been the name of the game, with three different winners in the last three RUSH Series events held at the track. Kyle Hardy and Daryl Charlier split the victories in 2025, while young gun Brock Pinkerous parked it in victory lane in 2024.
Econo Mod Mania Tour ($1,000 to Win)
After suffering the heartbreak of having their first two scheduled events rained out this season, the Econo Mod Mania Tour is finally ready to unleash down the straightaways for a $1,000 winner's prize. This highly anticipated event marks the first Econo Mod race at Tri-City since 2018, when Jacob Eucker earned the victory. Prior to that, Josh Ferry conquered the division in 2015.
Complete Car Care Center RUSH Stock Cars ($400 to Win)
Rounding out the spectacular three-day weekend are the RUSH Stock Cars running for a $400 first-place prize. William Baker has been dominant this summer, winning an incredible seven out of eleven feature races.

Lattomus Finds His Rhythm at The Grove, Scores Back-to-Back Top-10s​

Lewes, DE – September 3, 2026

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt

After a frustrating stretch of rainouts to open the month, Preston Lattomus bounced back with back-to-back top-10 finishes at Williams Grove Speedway before a tougher night at Lincoln Speedway closed out the busy three-week stretch.
Rained Out, Not Slowed Down

Mother Nature had other plans for the first part of the schedule, with three consecutive events — August 7th, 8th, and 12th — washed out before Lattomus could turn a lap.

“Laps are important, and with the season starting to gradually slow down, it’s a big hit to miss those races,” Lattomus said of the layoff.

The missed track time set up a demanding return to action once the weather cleared.
Speed on Display at The Grove

Lattomus’s first night back was one of his best of the season, even if the finishing position didn’t fully reflect it. He qualified 4th in his flight despite dealing with a magneto issue on the car, then dominated his heat race, leading all eight laps from the pole. In the 30-lap A-Main, Lattomus ran inside the top five for the first 27 laps before a bold restart decision with five laps remaining cost him track position.

“I restarted 4th with five laps to go and got greedy for more, chose the bottom, and tried to make it work, and then had guys come at me before I could get my momentum back and ended up losing three spots,” Lattomus explained.

Still, he considered it a positive night overall.

“I made good decisions and ran good laps for most of the race, and even when I made a mistake, it turned into a positive of getting some experience racing 1-on-1 with high-quality competition.”
Another Strong Run

Lattomus returned to Williams Grove a week later and delivered what he called one of the best features he’s run all year, working his way up to 7th before a late mistake dropped him back to a 10th-place finish from a 12th-place start.

“It was a solid night all together… one of the best tracks we’ve had at the Grove this year and one of the best features I have run yet,” he said.

Qualifying — where he timed in 6th in his group — came with its own challenge.

“In hot laps I noticed the brakes were soft, so we bled them right before I went out. I could have used them and simply didn’t have any brake pedal in qualifying,” Lattomus said. “Still felt we had good speed and a good handling racecar.“
Track Position at Lincoln

The following night at Lincoln Speedway proved more difficult. Lattomus again qualified 6th in a tightly bunched field, then made an aggressive bid for the lead on the heat race start that didn’t pan out, dropping him from 2nd to 4th on the opening lap.

“It just wasn’t the right decision,” he admitted. “Even though I was better than the cars that passed me, the track wasn’t really wide enough to do anything unless they made mistakes as well.“

That result pushed him back to a 16th starting spot in the A-Main, where he worked forward to finish 14th.

“I passed a few cars early on in the feature and seemed to be going good,” Lattomus said. “But after a few laps I lost some of those spots back and just rode in that area with the same couple cars the rest of the race.”
The Bigger Picture

Looking at the stretch as a whole, Lattomus pointed to qualifying as a recent strength across the board — one that carries extra weight at Williams Grove specifically.

“Recently qualifying at all racetracks has been our strongest point of the night, and I think it just matters way more at the Grove than anywhere else,” he said.

As for what’s holding a breakthrough result back, Lattomus was direct: “I think consistency is my biggest struggle right now. And it’s not a bad thing — we can put every part of a night together in some form or another. Just doing it consistently and all together is what I’ve been struggling with.”
Up Next: Labor Day Duals

Lattomus will look to build on the momentum from Williams Grove during the two-day Labor Day Duals at Lincoln Speedway on September 5th and 6th, before the team takes a scheduled week off ahead of the Kevin Gobrecht Classic at BAPS Motor Speedway on September 19th.

“Excited to run the same place back-to-back nights and get two opportunities at having a good run at Lincoln,” Lattomus said. “As far as goals go, we will continue what we have been building and work hard to create good runs both nights.“

Arenz seals second in IRA Jacksonville jaunt

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) September 2, 2026 – Travis Arenz and the members of the Travis Arenz Motorsports Team made the 750-mile round-trip trek to Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Ill., pay off with a strong second-place showing in a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series make-up race on Friday, Aug. 28.

The Sheboygan Falls, Wis. competitor was quick right out of the gate as he qualified second in the 31-car field with a lap of 10.673 seconds around the quarter-mile high-banked dirt oval.

After coming home fourth in the second heat race, Arenz raced to victory in the second four-lap dash to earn his fourth IRA dash win of the 2026 season and the right to start the 30-lap main event from the outside of the front row.

Arenz stayed in the mix for the victory throughout the A main as he hounded polesitter Paul Nienhiser throughout the event. After staying within striking distance for most of the race on a difficult track surface, the two-time Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion fell just short while securing his third second-place showing and sixth podium finish of the 2026 season.

“Jacksonville was a challenge,” Arenz said. “The surface was tricky, and I made too many mistakes lap after lap. If I could have hit my marks more consistently and maneuvered through lapped traffic faster, I would have had a really good shot at the lead. All in all, I’m glad to leave there with a podium.”

Arenz is gearing up for a big tripleheader weekend of IRA action, starting Friday, Sept. 4 at the Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway “horsepower half mile” in Beaver Dam, Wis. for a ninth annual Harry Neitzel Tribute.

On Saturday, Sept. 5, the IRA heads back to 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis., where Arenz has recorded two of his six 410 Sprint Car A-main victories, including the $26,000-to-win High Limit Racing Rayce Rudeen event last June.

The three-race IRA weekend closes out at The Hill Raceway in Sturgeon Bay, Wis. on Sunday, Sept. 6.

All IRA events are streamed live on floracing.com.

Tony Jackson and Scott Hess Racing Stay Red Hot, Extend Winning Streak to Seven at BAPS Motor Speedway​

York Haven, PA – September 2, 2026

by Justin Snyder / Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt

Jackson reaches 70 career Sportsman victories, including 50 with Scott Hess Racing

Tony Jackson and Scott Hess Racing simply cannot be stopped right now.

Jackson added another checkered flag to an already remarkable late-season run this past weekend, wheeling the Scott Hess Racing No. 88 to victory in Winged Super Sportsman competition at BAPS Motor Speedway.

The victory came just one weekend after Jackson and the team pulled off an impressive double at Williams Grove Speedway, capturing victories in both Winged and Wingless Sportsman competition.

With the latest BAPS triumph, Jackson and Scott Hess Racing have now rattled off seven consecutive Sportsman victories, putting together a stretch of dominance that could not have come at a better time as the team heads into some of the biggest races remaining on its schedule.

“I said six in a row in victory lane, but I kind of forgot about Pagoda, and that makes it seven,” said Jackson. “We’ve been on an unbelievable run, and hopefully it can keep going for one more week.”

While much of Jackson’s recent success had come in wingless competition, the team has worked diligently throughout the summer to strengthen its winged program with an eye toward the marquee events later in the season. The results are beginning to speak for themselves.

Following a victory at Williams Grove, Jackson backed it up at BAPS Motor Speedway, a facility where he and Hess have enjoyed plenty of success together over the years.

“I think the biggest thing that has happened was that we got our motor program figured out and we just were not where we needed to be early in the year,” he said. “We put a motor in for Williams Grove that was almost experimental, to see if we could find something, and right now I’m driving with as much confidence as I ever have. Everything just seems slow, and for a driver, that’s the best feeling you can have behind the wheel.”

The latest victory also carried some added historical significance for Jackson.

The veteran racer has now amassed an impressive 70 career victories in Sportsman competition, further adding to a résumé that has established him as one of the division’s most accomplished competitors. Even more impressive, 50 of those 70 victories have come behind the wheel of a Scott Hess Racing machine.

“It’s special to get to these numbers. Honestly, when I started, I didn’t know if I’d ever get one, let alone 70,” said Jackson. “I’ve been blessed with good racecars, and with Scott, it just seems we’ve clicked. If I don’t win another race, I can’t say we didn’t achieve everything we ever wanted, but hopefully we can keep going and get a few more wins.”

Jackson’s seven-race streak has showcased his versatility. Whether competing with a wing or without one, the combination of Jackson and Scott Hess Racing has continued to find its way to Victory Lane.

That momentum comes at an ideal time.

With the calendar turning to September and the Sportsman 100 looming, the team enters the most important portion of its season on arguably its hottest streak ever.

“I really wasn’t sure after last year if I’d ever run another Sportsman 100, so to even be talking about this is a blessing in itself,” said Jackson. “Last year we broke early, and we really didn’t even get a chance to compete. I’ve been in contention to win a few times, and I was lucky enough to win one, but to win one more would be the icing on the cake for a great season, and I’m excited to try.”

For a driver who initially entered 2026 planning only a limited return to competition, the season has quickly developed into another memorable chapter in Jackson’s career and his partnership with Scott Hess Racing.

What started as an opportunity to climb back behind the wheel, have some fun, and compete in select events has once again turned into a pursuit of victories — and lately, nobody has been doing that better.

UP NEXT

Jackson and Scott Hess Racing are scheduled to return to compete in winged competition on Saturday for the Sportsman 100 at BAPS, before heading to Selinsgrove Speedway on Sunday for a night of wingless racing. He’s then headed on Monday for a much-deserved family day at the Phillies games with his son and wife.

Tanner Carrick Runs Sixth at John and Robbie Padjen Classic

PETERSEN MEDIA: Traveling to Chico, CA over the weekend for the 72nd Gold Cup Race of Champions, Tanner Carrick kicked the festivities off with a sixth-place finish during the John and Robbie Padjen Classic on Wednesday night.

“We got our Gold Cup week off to a pretty good start on Wednesday night,” Tanner Carrick said. “We did a good job on Thursday night making the show but then we were just a little off on Friday and Saturday night.”

Wednesday night saw Carrick get the night kicked off by timing the CVC/Cemex/TC Guide Service backed No. 83T entry in third fastest after going out last in his qualifying flight.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, Carrick slipped to second as the field stormed into turns one and two. Holding the spot, Carrick punched his ticket into the opening night feature event where he lined up in the ninth starting position.

Running inside the Top-10 as the race came to life, a slight bobble saw Carrick fall back a few spots on the 16th lap but was able to work back up into 10th a lap later. Jumping into 9th on the 27th lap, Carrick then took over sixth on the 28thlap where he capped off the opener.

Thursday night shifted to High Limit action with a whopping 50 cars packed into the pit area. Going out 45th in time trials, Carrick ended up 42nd fastest in time trials.

Lining up 11th in his heat race, the Lincoln, CA driver had his elbows up and was drastically able to change the complexion of his night. Charging to a sixth-place finish, Carrick wasn’t able to earn a transfer directly into the feature event but put himself in position to transfer out of the ‘B’.

Taking the green flag from the fourth starting position, Carrick worked his way into third and kept his night alive as his third-place finish lined him up 23rd in the feature event.

As the feature event went green, the track soon started to take a little rubber as the field worked around the surface. With it taking rubber seemingly from the top of the track to the bottom of the track it still allowed for a little moving and shaking. Picking up a handful of spots from 23rd, Carrick took the checkered with an 18th place finish.

Having a rough Friday night, Carrick and company were back in action on Saturday where he got the night underway by finishing eighth in his heat race, which lined him up 14th in the ‘B’.

Needing to get into the Top-4 to continue on to the Gold Cup Race of Champions feature, Carrick gave it a very good effort but came up just short as he ended the weekend with a ninth-place finish in the ‘B’.

Tanner Carrick would like to thank CVC, Cemex, Interstate Oil, D.R. Horton, Conti, Harris and Sloan, Hanson Truss, TC Guide Service, Eddie’s Lincoln Auto Body, Simpson Strong-Tie, A&A Concrete Supply, Kaeding Performance, and Arai for their continued support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts: 43, Wins: -0, Top 5’s: 10, Top 10’s: 23

ON TAP: Tanner Carrick is now slated for two nights of action in Calistoga, CA this Saturday and Sunday.

Paul Nienhiser Defends Home Turf with IRA

PETERSEN MEDIA: With the IRA invading Jacksonville Speedway on Friday night, Paul Nienhiser defended his home turf well as he was able to extend his point lead with the series, and pick up the win in front of his hometown crowd.

“Heading into Friday night, I was hoping to run well with so many family members, friends, and partners in the house, but also because we had just reclaimed the series points lead last week,” Paul Nienhiser said.

Going out late in the qualifying session, Nienhiser timed the AGRI-YIELD/CAM2 Lubricants/Midland Performance Inc. No. 9x entry in 11th fastest overall.

Needing to win his heat race to have a shot at the Dash, the Chapin, IL driver took advantage of his front row starting position and powered into the lead. Leading from start to finish, Nienhiser made himself Dash eligible and then went on to draw the pole of the Dash.

Just as he did in his heat race, Nienhiser was able to get another good jump from the front row. Leading the way from start to finish again, Nienhiser picked up the Dash win and was on the pole of the 30-lap feature event.

When the feature event came to life, Nienhiser continued to show he was the dominant force on this night as he left the field in is wake and quickly reeled in the back of the pack.

Getting into traffic, Nienhiser was able to extend his lead as he got through traffic methodically.

The only issue for Nienhiser arose on lap 26 when he got up over the curb and off the racing surface. With a sizeable lead, Nienhiser never faltered and never lifted and was able to retain the lead.

In the end, Nienhiser went on to lead every lap and score his 9th win of the season.

“It was just great to win in front of AGRI-YIELD, Buffalo Wild Wings, American Rental, Steve’s Towing, and T&K Tree Services employees in attendance,” Nienhiser added. “It was a great night overall with our only blemish being qualifying. Again, I have to thank my guys for their hard work and continuing to give me an exceptional car night in and night out.”

Nienhiser would like to thank AGRI-YIELD, CAM2 Lubricants, Midland Performance Inc., MB Heating & Cooling Inc., Buffalo Wild Wings, T&K Tree Services, Morrow Brothers Ford Inc., American Rental Center, Signature Signs, The ID | SP, Bradshaw Custom Pumping, Wessler Bros. Agency Inc., Haverfield Construction-Concrete, Steve’s Towing, Dropped Mobile, Mason Sound, AB&C Moving, Bayer Crop Science, Dekalb/Asgrow, Engler Machine and Tool, Rider Racing Engines, K1 Race Gear, and Super Shox for their support.

Nienhiser would also like to thank Heartland Trailer Manufacturing, Rockstar Wraps, Kinney Racing Engines, and Stronghurst Collision Center for their support of Scott Bonar’s No. 50 car.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races-24, Wins-9, Top 5’s-14, Top 10’s-19

ON TAP: Nienhiser heads to WI this weekend for the Neitzel Tribute on Friday at Dodge County, before heading to 141 Speedway on Saturday, and The Hill Racweay on Sunday.

Starks Reaches Skagit Speedway Victory Lane for 10th Time This Season

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (Aug. 31, 2026) – Trey Starks hustled to his sixth 360ci winged sprint car triumph of the season at Skagit Speedway last Saturday, pushing his lead in the championship standings to 41 points with only one race remaining in the division.

The victory was also Starks’ 11th total triumph – the 10th at Skagit Speedway – of the season, tied for the third-most in his career.

“We went out there and did what we knew we can do,” he said. “I felt really good and really good about how fast the car is.”

Starks was efficient throughout the night as he set quick time during qualifying before advancing from fourth to second place in a heat race and from fourth to win the A Main.

“We laid down a good qualifying lap and going fourth to second in the heat was good,” he said. “The track got pretty slick and wide and was really good for the feature. We got into third on the start and into second on the second lap. We got by Robbie (Price) for the lead on Lap 5. I could move around and got him to move. I knew I had to make my move at the right time because the track was moving around, but the top was a little faster. We had a barrage of restarts, probably five or six. It was just as I was getting to traffic, which is usually as a leader what you want to see. With the way the backstretch restarts are and how good we’ve been in traffic, I wanted to see traffic. But it gave us a good opportunity to practice restarts.”

The six 360 sprint car wins are the most of any driver in any division at Skagit Speedway this season.

Starks returns to Skagit Speedway this weekend for the Angel of the Winds Casino Resort Skagit Nationals with Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing. The three-day event runs Thursday through Saturday with a $126,000-to-win finale.

Starks improved his result throughout all three nights of the event last year, finishing with a run from 22nd to 12th to earn the Hard Charger Award during the finale.

“Last year we were coming off a Dirt Cup and 360 Nationals win so going into the High Limit weekend it was about pulling off all three,” he said. “We started off really good, but we had one mishap where we got wrecked in the heat race. That’s all it takes to ruin your weekend. We’re focused on making sure we have the speed we need, which we do, and being prepared for anything that can go wrong. As long as we maintain our speed and have a little bit of luck, we should be all right.”

QUICK RESULTS –

Aug. 29 – Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Wash. – Qualifying: 1; Heat race: 2 (4); Feature: 1 (4).

SEASON STATS –

27 races, 11 wins, 20 top fives, 23 top 10s, 24 top 15s, 25 top 20s

Mallett Records Top-10 Finish at Queen’s Royal During Farmington Empire Speedway Debut

Inside Line Promotions – FARMINGTON, Mo. (Sept. 1, 2026) – Jordon Mallett produced a top-10 result last Saturday during his debut at Farmington Empire Speedway.

Mallett and car owner A.G. Rains tackled the 29th annual Queen’s Royal, which featured nearly 50 cars. Mallett timed in fifth quickest in his group and he finished second in a heat race to earn a spot into the Queen of the Hill. Finishing ninth in that garnered the ninth starting spot for the A Main.

“The Queen’s Royal is a 410 race, but we had a 360 in and we were pretty good,” he said. “There were a whole bunch of cars there and only a handful of other drivers who also had a 360 in. We timed in good and ran second in our heat race. That locked us into the dash. In the feature, we were really good given how down we were on horsepower compared to the 410s. It stunk when the track slowed down and latched up some rubber. That made it harder to go forward with what we were up against, but we had a really good car all night long and capitalized when we were able to. It was nice to be racing.”

Mallett’s eighth-place result was his 13th top 10 of the season and his 11th top-10 finish in his last 12 races.

A USCS Series doubleheader is up next for the team. The action begins on Friday at Dixie Speedway in Woodstock, Ga., before Talladega Short Track in Eastaboga, Ala., hosts a race on Saturday.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve been at Dixie,” Mallett said. “I remember winning there the last time. We don’t get to go to Talladega often, but we typically run well there and have won some races there. I’m looking forward to getting back to both tracks.”

Mallett was victorious during his last race at Dixie Speedway in July 2018 and he finished second during his most recent visit to Talladega Short Track in September 2024.

QUICK RESULTS –

Aug. 29 – Farmington Empire Speedway in Farmington, Mo. – Qualifying: 5; Heat race: 2 (2); Queen of the Hill: 9 (9); Feature: 8 (9).

SEASON STATS –

17 races, 1 win, 10 top fives, 13 top 10s, 14 top 15s, 17 top 20s

UP NEXT –

Friday at Dixie Speedway in Woodstock, Ga., and Saturday at Talladega Short Track in Eastaboga, Ala., with the USCS Series

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Navigate North Dakota Weekend With Efficiency

Inside Line Promotions – MINOT, N.D. (Sept. 1, 2026) – Big Game Motorsports produced a trio of top-10 finishes during an extended World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series weekend in North Dakota to hit the 50 mark for top-10 results this season.

David Gravel guided the team to a podium at River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks on Friday, a top five at Fix It Forward Speedway in West Fargo on Saturday and a seventh-place outing on Monday at Nodak Speedway.

Most of the weekend was efficient for the team as Gravel set quick time during qualifying and he advanced into the dash at each of the three races. He was victorious in the dash at River Cities Speedway, advanced from sixth to fourth place in the dash at Fix It Forward Speedway and maneuvered from fifth to third place in the dash at Nodak Speedway.

Gravel led the first 25 laps of the 40-lap feature before placing second at River Cities Speedway, marking his fourth consecutive runner-up result at the track.

He battled for a top five throughout the feature at Fix It Forward Speedway, where he ended with a fourth-place showing.

The long weekend, which was extended a day to Monday after a rainout on Sunday evening at Nodak Speedway, concluded with Gravel holding on for a seventh-place result after a mid-race incident while running in a podium position. It was the team’s 50 top-10 performance of the season.

The focus now shifts to Huset’s Speedway in Brandon, S.D., which hosts the L.G. Everist Huset’s Shootout this Friday through Sunday with D & I Railroad, Ace Ready Mix and Myrl & Roy’s Paving serving as presenting sponsors each night, respectively. Gravel won the $300,000 top prize in his most recent race at Huset’s Speedway, topping the BillionAuto.com Huset’s High Bank Nationals finale in June.

Labor Day Tripleheader on Tap for Empire Super Sprints
By Curtis Berleue (Brewerton, NY) | Labor Day weekend is upon us, and as such is a three day race weekend for the Empire Super Sprints. Friday and Saturday will see stops at the Brewerton and Fulton Speedways, respectively. On Sunday, the tour will head down the thru-way for the highest paying full points event of the season at Utica-Rome Speedway – the $10,000 to win, $500 to start Cole Cup.
Earlier this season, Dylan Swiernik (May) and Larry Wight (July) graced Brewerton Speedway victory lane when the Empire Super Sprints were in town. Through two scheduled events at the Fulton Speedway, the Empire Super Sprints have yet to turn a lap there as Mother Nature was victorious on both occasions. Last season, however, Joe Trenca found himself in victory lane in the tours most recent stop back on October 3.
Sunday’s event at Utica-Rome is the second of two scheduled stops in Vernon, NY. Back on July 2nd, it was again Dylan Swiernik who found himself in victory lane for the $2,500 to win ESS CNY Speedweek event. As this is the 10th running of the Cole Cup, a great field of cars is expected to compete for the $10,000 top prize.
With the CRSA 305 sprints also on the card, Sunday will be a sprint car fans dream. A bonus is also on the line – any competitor that wins both the CRSA A-Main ($3,000) and the ESS A-Main ($10,000) will also earn an extra $5,000 – bringing the total to $18,000! If no one wins both features, a $2,000 point fund will be awarded to the top three drivers that run both features. Drivers will have to bring two separate cars if they want to run both divisions.
As with each ESS event, additional sponsorship helps to make a night of racing a success. Friday’s Donath Motor Worx Dash will be presented by Jakes Grub & Grog, while Saturday's will be presented by East Coast Sealcoat. Sunday’s Dash at Utica Rome will be run in memory of Tom Patterson.
For gate times, admission prices and a nightly run of events, please visit each tracks website and social pages, along with the Empire Super Sprints social pages. Fans unable to make it to the track can also tune in to FloRacing on Sunday to catch all of the action from Utica-Rome live.

Reutzel and RSR to continue High Limit schedule with Oregon stop August 31; Skagit Nationals launches September 3

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 31, 2026) - Aaron Reutzel’s swing up the West Coast has been eventful, to say the least, but the action is far from over, as High Limit Racing is set to resume competition on Monday, August 31, with a visit to the Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Oregon.

Once action in the Beaver State is complete, Reutzel, the ace of the Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR), Power Plus, Folkens Brothers Trucking, Don Long & STC, B And L Holdings, Rasmusson Service Center, Bargain Barn, No. 87 sprinter, will venture further north to Burlington, Washington, ready to take on the best of the Pacific Northwest in the three-day Skagit Nationals on September 3-5. The three-day Skagit Speedway showstopper will be headlined with a $126,000 main event on Saturday, September 5.

“A-Aron” and RSR will roll into their Oregon and Washington sweep as the second best team in the High Limit Racing national championship standings, 50 points back with Gold Cup champion Rico Abreu holding down the top spot. Speaking of Gold Cup, Reutzel concluded Silver Dollar Speedway’s three-day contest 17th in the $100,072-to-win finale, powering ahead eight positions from row 13.

His top result, Reutzel opened Gold Cup week with an 11th-place outcome - also from 25th - on Thursday, August 27.

“It wasn’t the Gold Cup we wanted, but we’ll have to shake this off and move forward,” Ryan Wyant, RSR Team Manager, explained. “We have a lot of season left, and a lot of money to earn, so we’ll regroup in a hurry. A win in Oregon would certainly push our momentum to the next level…a perfect shift before the Skagit Nationals launches Thursday.”

ON DECK:
Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing will continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with an early week visit to the Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Oregon, on Monday, August 31, followed by the three-day Skagit Nationals at Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Washington, on September 3-5.

Andrews to battle All Stars in Attica Ambush

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

SANDUSKY, Ohio (August 31, 2026) - Chris Andrews and Chris Andrews Racing made the most of their August 28 visit to Attica Raceway Park in Attica, Ohio, and with the All Star Circuit of Champions making their late summer appearance in less than a week, there’s no better time than now to build rhythm.

Andrews, the ace of his own Ohio Truck Sales, Real American Beer, Fleet Financial, Erie Waste, Cintas, Whiteford Kenworth, Toledo Spring, NAPA Fremont Auto Parts, TruckParts4U.com, No. 15C sprinter, finished fourth in his recent Attica invasion, maintaining his place within the top-five after commencing feature action from one spot further back. Of course, Andrews is certainly no stranger to success in the Buckeye State, earning two victories this season to-date with one occurring in the annual running of Ohio Sprint Speedweek.

Unfortunately, the two-time Attica Raceway Park track champion was unable to repeat his top-five achievement on Saturday at Sharon Speedway, concluding the All Star program 16th in the running order.

“We felt pretty good at Attica on Friday. A few things that we need to clean up, but we’ll be ready for the All Stars,” Andrews was quick to note. “Hats off to my team. They’ve been busting their butts all summer. It’s tough to think it’s already September, but we still have a lot of work to do. Here’s to a successful late summer/fall schedule.”

Chris Andrews and Chris Andrews Racing will continue their 2026 campaign with Attica Raceway Park’s Attica Ambush on Friday, September 4. The All Star Circuit of Champions event will award $7,850.

Jace Park with back-to-back top-tens in weekend visits to Knoxville and Huset’s

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (August 31, 2026) - Back-to-back Midwest starts resulted in back-to-back top-tens for Overland Park, Kansas’ own Jace Park, making the very best of his weekend visits to Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, and Huset’s Speedway in Brandon, South Dakota.

Park, now with three straight top-tens since his POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League podium at Missouri State Fair Speedway on August 23, finished fourth and eighth in his recent top-ten sweep, the former in Knoxville Raceway’s season championship program on August 29. Impressive enough, Park’s eventual top-ten at Huset’s was the product of forward progress - immense forward progress - powering ahead from 17th.

“Overall, a great weekend for our team…the hard work is truly paying off,” Park, the ace of his own Associates Insurance Group, Impact Signs/Awnings/Wraps, Adki Landscaping, FinanciaLife Outfitters, Clem Helmets, Maxim Racing, Weld, Flying A Motorsports, Schoenfeld Headers, Allstar Performance, No. 28 sprinter, said. “It’s pretty tough to think that our Knoxville Raceway season is over. To end our efforts sixth in the track championship is pretty special. We have things to work on but we’re already excited for the future.”

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

ODESSA, Mo. (August 31, 2026) - Odessa, Missouri’s Xavier Doney did his best to conquer the best in Saturday’s 29th Annual Queen’s Royal at Farmington Empire Speedway in Farmington, Missouri, and conquer is what he nearly achieved, racing on to conclude the $15,000-to-win program with a runner-up result - climbing ahead from tenth on the grid.

Doney, the ace of the Doney-Lawson Racing, Schnee-Lawson Chassis House Cars, Kat Excavation, Pella Building Systems-Mini Storage Specialists, Motor Haven, Five Star Bodies, CALI Floors, Design Source Flooring, No. 74 sprinter, was amongst some tough company in his Farmington invasion, joining nearly 50 other competitors including Howard Moore, Carson Short, Zach Daum, and Landon Crawley. Wasting little time, Doney, a full-time POWRi championship competitor in 2026, proved his competitiveness right from the start, opening action with the ninth-fastest time in his group, racing on to finish second in his respective heat.

The strong output at Farmington will prove vital, as Doney’s POWRi commitments will resume with a Labor Day triple beginning Friday, September 4, at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa.

(August 31, 2026) - For the second time in as many tries, “Double-D” Danny Dietrich is a Williams Grove Speedway main event winner, scoring his second consecutive Victory Lane visit in the annual Billy Kimmel Memorial on Friday, August 28. Impressive, to say the least, Dietrich’s triumph - his sixth of the year overall - was accomplished from seventh on the grid, securing his $6,000 payday with a last lap pass.

Abreu, now with three $100,000 or more victories over the course of his career, secured his Gold Cup championship in dramatic fashion, powering by Brent Marks following a restart with a handful of circuits remaining.

DETAILS OF NEW 410-WINGED SPRINT CAR INVITATIONALS ANNOUNCED

August 31, 2026 - Event promoters Jim Hanks and David Sink have announced their intentions to promote a select few 410-winged pavement sprint car invitational races beginning in 2027. The details and location of these invitational events will be announced in the coming weeks.

The duo considered becoming event promoters at the urging of several drivers and car owners who have expressed their concern for the limited number of 410-winged pavement sprint car events currently in the Midwest. There were only four total unrestricted 410-winged pavement sprint car events held in the Midwest in 2026, and all of these were contested in the state of Michigan. Indiana and Ohio were left dark.

The exact number of invitational events planned hasn’t been decided as of today's date. The duo has no intentions of creating a traveling series but rather promoting select weekend invitational events.

Hanks is no stranger to pavement sprint car racing. He is a former car owner who fielded entries in the USAC National Sprint Car Series, Silver Crown Series, and several winged asphalt sprint car events with the now defunct HOSS and AVSS groups.

Hanks created the Must See Racing Xtreme Sprint Series in 2010 before selling it prior to the current racing season due to health reasons. During his one-year hiatus, his rehabilitation, has returned him to good health. The highlights of his former series were extensive. It included a national television package in the early years with FOX Sports and promoting the $10,000 to win 410-winged pavement sprint car event at the famed Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee in 2011.

Sink is a current pavement sprint car journalist, photographer, and statistician. He manages the Social Media platform Pavement Pounders and is responsible for the National Pavement Sprint Car Rankings. He was recently inducted into the Little 500 Hall of Fame this past May.

Sink’s role in promotion isn’t just in media interests. From 2008-2015 he was part of the ownership of the International Outlaw Figure 8 Series (IOFS) and Winged Outlaw Figure 8 Series (WOFS). Both were touring late model figure 8 series based in the Midwest.

MASS Sprint Car Nationals Labor Day Weekend at Bridgeport

(August 30, 2026): The long-awaited 305 Sprint car Nationals are coming to Bridgeport Motorsports Park on Labor Day weekend! The Ron Faison Memorial Weekend features the two-day Sprint Car Nationals on Friday, Sept. 4 & Saturday, Sept. 5, hosted by Bridgeport Speedway and sanctioned by the very successful DCB Plumbing & Heating Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series presented by Capital Renegade as part of their 10th anniversary season.

Friday night will be The Prelude to the Nationals, with a 25 lap feature event locking 4 drivers into the Nationals A-Main on Saturday. Saturday evening will be the Ron Faison Nationals 50-lap championship event paying a whopping $4000 to win & $350 to start, making it one of the largest paying events for the 305 sprint cars on the east coast this year!

Qualifying for the weekend will be determined differently than other series events. Both nights will use a point system for both Time Trials and Passing Points in the heat races. Time Trial points will be 130 for fast time, and will go down by 2 pts for each position behind that. Passing Points will be determined using a table based on starting and finishing position. This table will be posted in the MASS trailer prior and throughout both nights of the Nationals.

On Friday, these points will be added together to determine the top qualifiers out of the heat races. The top 10 drivers in these points will be redrawing for the first 10 starting positions in the feature. 11th thru 20th will start respectively in those positions, with those drivers outside of the top 20 starting heads up by points in the B-Main.

The top 4 finishers in Friday night’s Preliminary 25 lap feature will all lock into the 50-lap Nationals on Saturday. The top 2 finishers will automatically go into the redraw on Saturday without having to attempt to qualify. The third and fourth place finishers will be guaranteed to start in the top 20 on Saturday. Those two drivers will attempt to qualify on Saturday, but will be guaranteed at least the 19th and 20th starting positions if their attempt fails to put them in.

Saturday night’s qualifying will be the same format as Friday, but with the top 8 in points joining the first 2 finishers from Friday in the redraw for the first ten starting positions. 9th thru 16th in points will start 11th thru 18th. The 3rd and 4th finishers from Friday will start 19th and 20th, unless they have qualified higher. If this happens we will use the next driver in points to fill the top 20.

Both nights Time Trials will be done in groups as Timed-Dashes. The fast-timer will roll for an invert of between 4 and 8, which will decide the amount of cars inverted in each heat race starting lineup.

The B-Mains each night will be lined up in order of points for all cars not qualifying in the top 20.

All this action takes place at Bridgeport Motorsports Park in Swedesboro, NJ on Friday Sept. 4th and Saturday Sept. 5th. Both nights the Pit gate opens at 4pm, the Grandstands at 5pm, & Warm-ups at 6pm.

All of the normal contingency awards will also be offered each night.

Contingency Awards:

Tin Hoagie Customs Highest Pill Draw $50.

Next Generation Construction Quick Time in Hot Laps $50.

Professional Design Services Most Laps Led $100.

Bitner Automotive Lightning Fast Lap in Feature $50.

Janney Electric Hard Charger Award $50.

Kreider Manufacturing Hard Luck Award (25% off Order Coupon).

WheelsofSpeed.com Lucky 13th Place Starter $30.

JWK Electric 12th place finisher $50.

Insinger Performance Tail End of Lead Lap (10 Gal. Fuel).

MAGSARUS TO PRESENT $750 HARD CHARGER BONUS FOR 305s AT COLE CUP NIGHT CRSA

Press Release By: Marty Czekala – August 30, 2026

Perhaps the biggest post-race contingency bonus is up for grabs at the Cole Cup Sept. 6, when the A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints join the event.

CRSA and Mike Emhof are excited to announce Magsarus has offered a $750 bonus to the biggest mover in the $3000-to-win, $300-to-start feature.

“We really want to thank Ed Monger, owner of Magsarus, for his support to CRSA,” said Emhof. “He believes we provide a great product for drivers, teams and fans and we can’t wait to showcase it on Labor Day weekend!”

CRSA will be on the undercard to the Empire Super Sprints in their $10000-to-win feature. Similar to the doubleheader last July, if a driver sweeps both sprint car features, they’ll take home an extra $5000, leading to an $18000 payday.

If no one wins both features, a $2000 point fund will be awarded to the top three drivers that run both features—$1000 to the winner, $600 to second and $400 to third. Drivers who want to pull double duty must run separate cars.

Can’t make it to Utica-Rome Speedway? You can watch the action live on FloRacing that Sunday.

The CRSA Sprints are brought to you by A-Verdi Storage Containers. Associate sponsors include Pit Stop Convenience Stores, DisBatch Brewing Company, Stirling Lubricants, Dandy, Joe's Garage, Westward Painting Company, Elab Smokers Boutique, iFreeze Storage & Distribution Center, Maguire Automotive Group, Powdertech Powdercoating, Ruggles World of Auto Body, PJC Business Ventures, Magsarus Ignitions, Hoosier Racing Tire, Bicknell Racing Products, Insinger Performance with their Stinger Race Fuel, My Race Pass and is owned and operated by Mike Emhof Motorsports.

Arenz rides Wilmot, Angell Park roller coaster

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) August 26, 2026 – What has become known as fair weekend on the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series tour provided plenty of ups and downs for Travis Arenz and his Travis Arenz Motorsports team at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. during the Kenosha County Fair on Saturday, Aug. 22 and Corn Fest at Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wis. on Sunday, Aug. 23.

After visiting victory lane in each of his past two outings at Angell Park Speedway on July 26 and Wilmot Raceway on Aug. 8, Arenz found the going to be a little more difficult this time around.

At Wilmot, Arenz opened the night by qualifying ninth in the 27-car field with a time of 13.009 seconds. After winning the third heat race, Arenz placed third in the four-lap dash to snag the sixth starting spot in the 30-lap headliner.

The two-time Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion rode in and around the top five throughout the race, eventually coming home with a sixth-place showing.

One night later, Arenz qualified fourth in the 25-car field with a lap of 12.411 seconds before securing his 15th dash appearance of the 2026 season with a third place showing in the first heat race.

A third-place finish in dash 2 put the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver sixth in the A-main starting lineup. He moved up quickly to take second on lap 7. On the following lap, Arenz got a huge run on race leader Bryce Norris exiting turn two to mount a challenge for the lead.

However, Arenz contacted the outside wall just as he pulled even with Norris to bring out a caution flag. Despite an intense group effort in the work area to return Arenz’s damaged machine to the track, he was unable to restart and was credited with a 25th-place showing. It was just the second time he was unable to finish an A main this season.

“The weekend was an up-and-down roller coaster for us,” Arenz said. “Wilmot went okay, but the car just got worse as the feature went on. Angell Park was great, until it wasn’t. I tried a different setup at Angell Park with bars and shocks, and the car was an absolute rocket until contact with the leader ended the night. Looking ahead, our outlook is simple: keep the car in one piece and produce podium finishes.”

Arenz will compete in a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association event at Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Ill. this Friday, Aug. 28. Spectator gates open at 5:30 p.m. with hot laps at 6:15 p.m. and racing at 7 p.m.

All IRA events are streamed live on floracing.com.

The 2026 Travis Arenz Motorsports sponsorship partners include Service One Transportation Inc., Don and Lynn Kiel, Professional Plating Inc., Pfeffer Trucking, Oostburg Concrete, Wittkopf Family Funeral Homes, Carbliss, PalletWorks, Oostburg State Bank, Sonntag Plumbing, Jensen Sales and Service, Fastenal, Roth’s Auto Restoration, Lake Auto Glass, Arenz Auto Detailing, Hair Fellers Barbershop, and Duehring Tax Service.

Travis Arenz Motorsports Sponsor Showcase – Don and Lynn Kiel

Don and Lynn Kiel’s first date was at a race at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis., in June 1998, and they have been together ever since, marrying on Feb. 14, 2005. Lynn spent her working career in the banking industry, retiring in 2017 after 39 years as an assistant vice president at a local Manitowoc bank.

Lynn's interest in racing started when she attended the races at the 141 Speedway as a child with her dad, Andy Endries. RIP ANDY!

Don's interest in racing started when he bought Dean Divine's Modified in the early 1970s. Don's driving experience involved Modifieds and Mini Sprints, as well as 360 Sprint Cars at Manitowoc Expo Speedway in 2011 and 2012.

Don spent four years in the United States Air Force, enlisting the night of his graduation party. He was honorably discharged after four years in 1967 as an Airman First Class. Don was a Minuteman Missile electrician serving as team chief his last year and got to take part in the test firing of four Minuteman Missiles at Vandenburg Air Force Base in Lompoc, Calif. Don was based at F. E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne, Wyo., for 41 months.

Don started flying in Cheyenne at the age of 19, secured his first flying job three days after his honorable discharge from the U.S. Air Force at age 22, and retired at age 60. He retired as Senior Captain on the 300-passenger Airbus A330-300 flying to London, Paris, Rome, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt. He has logged over 30,000 hours of flying time with a lot of stories to tell.

For a glimpse of Don's career, Google Don Kiel Wisconsin Aviation Hall of Fame.

Don and Lynn continue to fly his 1952 Cessna 170B, both on wheels and skis in the winter.

Don loves to say, “It's pretty cool when your vocation and avocation are one and the same!”

“We started out sponsoring Travis Arenz by buying him a set of rear tires five years ago, and the rest is history,” Don Kiel said. “Travis is a very talented racer, from the tiniest detail to the actual racing. I love to watch Travis feel the track out and then work his magic. I sponsor Travis as I feel he is one of the best!”

ALL STAR CIRCUIT OF CHAMPIONS SPRINT CARS INVADE SHARON ON SATURDAY WITH $7,500 ON THE LINE


By Mike Leone

August 26, 2026

(Hartford, OH)...After a rain out last Saturday night, Sharon Speedway looks to return to action this Saturday night (August 29) as the All Star Circuit of Champions will make their final visit of the 2026 season in an event presented by Capitol Renegade. The Alcon Mechanical Econo Mods and Alcon Mechanical Crown Vics will also be part of the program. It’s Diehl Automotive and Bucks Fabricating Night. Warmups get underway at 6:30 p.m. followed by qualifying with racing scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

After competing at Sharon on June 13 part of Ohio Sprint Speedweek in a race won by Zeth Sabo, the All Stars will return to Sharon on Saturday night for a $7,500 to-win event. Saturday will mark the next-to-last Hovis Auto & Truck Supply “410” Sprint Car event presented by Bala Management of the 97th anniversary season. The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars will close out the 2026 Sharon season on Saturday, October 10.

Kalib Henry, the defending All Stars Driver Champion, leads the Series to Sharon once again atop the points standings in the Running Boxer Farm #101. Sabo, who won his first career All Stars and Sharon feature at the last visit, has now taken over the driving duties of Rudzik Racing #49x based out of nearby Struthers, Ohio. The Rudzik team won the 2025 All Stars Owner Championship and sit second in points currently. Cale Thomas, who recently exited the Rudzik #49x, has since moved to Bryan Grove’s #45 where he won the most recent All Stars race last Saturday night at Butler, Michigan. Thomas also has two other non-sanctioned wins for Grove in Ohio and has the #45 third in owner points.

Saturday’s event will not bring in the remainder of the All Stars full-time racers, but also the best from throughout Ohio, western Pa. and beyond. A pair of northern Ohio standouts in Cap Henry and Chris Andrews have already stated their intentions to compete at Sharon on Saturday night.

The All Stars have made 115 visits to Sharon with 55 different winners. Doug Wolfgang and Kenny Jacobs lead the way with 10 wins a piece. Dave Blaney is third with eight victories over Dale Blaney with seven wins. Cap Henry is the only other active racer with multiple wins at two.

Sharon has completed five "410" Sprint Car events thus far in 2026 with five different winners! The wins by invaders Logan Wagner (Western PA Speedweek), Sabo (Ohio Speedweek), and Dylan Norris (July 25) were all the first wins of their career at Sharon. Brandon Spithaler won just the second Sharon “410” Sprint Car race of his career on June 27. And most recently, Dale Blaney joined his brother Dave as the only multiple winners of the Sprint Car portion of the “Lou Blaney Memorial” with his second event victory on August 1.

The Alcon Mechanical Econo Mods will be running in their fourth program of the 97th anniversary season. After going winless in 2025, Jeremy Double is three-for-three in 2026! All three events have had 26 or 27 cars on hand meaning Double has taken home $600 for his efforts for each victory and all competitors in their field received a payoff boost. Double has now won an all-time Econo Mod best 25 times at Sharon.

Rounding out the three-division program on Saturday night will be the Alcon Mechanical Crown Vic division. The Crown Vics made their season debut on May 30 with a record 19-car field as Brad Shaffer scored the victory. The Longwells then ripped off three straight wins. Coleton Longwell won two-in-a-row giving him a division best three victories since the division debuted last season, and his father Jason on July 25. Most recently, Branden Porter won his first career Sharon feature over a 16-car field on August 15.

Brown with two top-fives in three days; Knoxville next

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. (August 24, 2026) - “Blackjack” Brian Brown and Brian Brown Racing put up big numbers in their three-day stretch through Kansas and Missouri, translating three POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League starts into two top-fives, one of which a podium.

Brown, the ace of his own Casey’s, FVP, Andy’s Frozen Custard, Wilkerson Crane Rental, Impact Signs Awnings and Wraps, Mountain Dew, Ditzfeld Transfer, Ditzfeld Container Service, No. 21 sprint car, finished fifth, 21st, and second in his POWRi triple, doing so at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas; Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri; and Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia, Missouri. Impressive enough, Brown’s eventual runner-up result in Sedalia was the product of forward progress, commencing action from eighth on the A-Main grid.

“Decent weekend for our Casey’s | FVP team,” Brown said. “Always working to win every night out, but a great building block moving forward. Lots of important races are still left on our schedule starting this weekend at Knoxville. We’re hoping to get out to Pennsylvania later in the year. All we can do is continue building on what we got going…the goal is to stack on some additional wins before the season ends.

It should be noted that Brown's 21st-place “DNF” was the result of a flat tire.

“Can’t say enough about the team…Chad, JB, Devin, my dad…they busted their butts all weekend long with three long days,” Brown added. “Not a lot of sleep, but they kept on moving and we certainly appreciate their efforts.”

ON DECK:
Brian Brown and Brian Brown Racing will continue their 2026 campaign with a return visit to Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, on Saturday, August 29.

2026 BBR STATISTICS:
Wins: 1
Top-Fives: 12

Paul Nienhiser Pockets Pair of Weekend Wins

PETERSEN MEDIA: Back in action after a slight break in his schedule, Paul Nienhiser didn’t miss a beat as he picked up wins on Friday and Sunday night, as well as a fifth-place finish on Saturday night.

“It felt great to get back in the car and get back to racing,” Paul Nienhiser said. “Scott, Zoom, Caleb, and Weston continue to give it their all for me, and I wouldn’t be in this position if it wasn’t for them and their hard work.”

Kicking the weekend off at Lincoln on Friday night for a bout with MOWA, Nienhiser drew the pole for his heat race and never looked back. Racing to the win, he qualified for the redraw and the ‘2’ put him on the front row of the feature event.

Just as he did in his heat race, Nienhiser got a great jump as he fired off of the front row and quickly raced away from the field. In dominating fashion, Nienhiser was able to work his way through the rear of the field and lapped up to fifth as he pocketed his seventh win of the year.

Turning his attention back to his IRA point chase on Saturday night, Nienhiser and his AGRI-YIELD/CAM2 Lubricants/Midland Performance Inc team were in action at Wilmot Raceway.

Getting off to a bit of a slow start as they dealt with an issue in their suspension, Nienhiser timed in 14th in time trials which then placed him in the third row of his heat race. Finishing fifth in heat race competition, the Chapin, IL driver moved into the feature event where he took the green flag from the 13th starting position.

Able to get the ship righted for the feature event, Nienhiser was able to overcome his slow start to the night as he made up ground with each lap in the feature event. Getting into the Top-10 quickly, Nienhiser continued to battle as he worked his way to a fifth-place finish when the checkered flag was displayed to the field.

Sunday night brought the end of a busy weekend as the IRA checked in at Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, WI. Going out first in time trials, Nienhiser laid down a very good lap that held up for sixth quick in qualifications.

From the second row of his heat race, Nienhiser wasted no time jumping into the race lead. Getting into the top spot, Nienhiser collected the win and moved into the Dash where the one pill put him on the front row of Dash 2. Grabbing the Dash win, Nienhiser was set to roll from the front row for the 30-lap feature event.

Slipping back to second as the race came to life, Nienhiser kept the leader in his sights as he worked around the slick, wide surface that was offered up for the feature.

Briefly falling back to third as the leaders ran through traffic, Nienhiser went to work on the high side of the speedway and got back into second before a very bold move in traffic saw him take over command of the race lead.

Once out front, Nienhiser left the field in his wake and built up nearly a six second lead until a late caution bunched the field back up. In the race’s final eight laps, Nienhiser was still impressive as he opened his lead up and went on to pick up his second win of the weekend as he re-claimed the IRA season long points lead.

“Sunday night at Angell Park was awesome,” Nienhiser said. “We have been fast there in the past but we never quite had race winning speed. It feels good to get a win here, and it feels great to get Scott back in victory lane for the first time since he grabbed a win with Kevin Doty. Again, I owe all of this to my guys, and I am thankful for all they do.”

Nienhiser would like to thank AGRI-YIELD, CAM2 Lubricants, Midland Performance Inc., MB Heating & Cooling Inc., Buffalo Wild Wings, T&K Tree Services, Morrow Brothers Ford Inc., American Rental Center, Signature Signs, The ID | SP, Bradshaw Custom Pumping, Wessler Bros. Agency Inc., Haverfield Construction-Concrete, Steve’s Towing, Dropped Mobile, Mason Sound, AB&C Moving, Bayer Crop Science, Dekalb/Asgrow, Engler Machine and Tool, Rider Racing Engines, K1 Race Gear, and Super Shox for their support.

Nienhiser would also like to thank Heartland Trailer Manufacturing, Rockstar Wraps, Kinney Racing Engines, and Stronghurst Collision Center for their support of Scott Bonar’s No. 50 car.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races-23, Wins-68 Top 5’s-13, Top 10’s-18

ON TAP: Nienhiser will be in action again with the IRA on Friday night as they invade Jacksonville Speedway.

Hartmann goes Outlaw in Gopher State

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) August 25, 2026 – Following a one-month break from competition, Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team put their mettle to the test in a pair of NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series events in the state of Minnesota on Friday, Aug. 21 and Saturday, Aug. 22.

The doubleheader weekend fired up at Oglivie Speedway where the Plymouth, Wis. driver timed in 21st in the 29-car field with a lap of 12.756 seconds around the three-eighths-mile high-banked clay oval.

After placing eighth in the first heat race, Hartmann lined up sixth in the 12-lap Last Chance Showdown, needing a top six finish to earn an A-main berth.

He fell back to ninth in the early going before battling back to seventh on lap 9. Hartmann then used a big run on the final lap to nip Brooke Tatnell at the line and secure the 24th starting spot in the A-main lineup.

On lap 3 of the scheduled 30-lap main event, rain hit the speedway to force a lengthy delay. The team decided to call it a night at that point, ending up with a 24th-place showing.

After towing to Jackson Speedway in southern Minnesota for Saturday night’s World of Outlaws event, Hartmann qualified 25th in the 37-car field with a time of 13.744 seconds on the four-tenths-mile semi-banked clay racing surface.

Hartmann then closed out the weekend with an eighth-place run in his heat race, and a 13th-place showing in the Last Chance Showdown.

“It was a good weekend at two new tracks for this team,” Hartmann said. “We definitely have some work to do at Jackson, but I felt good at Ogilvie. We just have a couple of things to change before going back for the IRA [Interstate Racing Association] show at Jackson in a couple of weeks.”

Next up, the team will head into the final month of the season with two IRA events over the Labor Day weekend starting at Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway in Beaver Dam, Wis. for the ninth annual Harry Neitzel Tribute on Friday, Sept. 4, before visiting 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis. on Saturday, Sept. 5.

Both events will be broadcast live on FloRacing.com.

Brody Roa Takes Third at Perris – Calistoga Next

Cypress, CA — August 24, 2026 — After the disappointment of losing an engine in qualifying five weeks earlier at Perris Auto Speedway, 2023 USAC/CRA Champion Brody Roa came back strong on August 15th, setting the second-fastest time in Woodland Auto Display qualifying, winning his heat race and placing third in the main event on the Riverside County clay oval.

Three weeks after winning the June 20 USAC/CRA race at Perris, Roa toured the famous half-mile in 16.977 on his first qualifying lap on July 11. That ended up being the third-fastest time of the night. Unfortunately, on his second lap, the engine in the #91R detonated, ending his night.

August 15th was a different story. Roa qualified second fastest at 17.046 and won the second heat race. Starting fifth in the 30-lap main, he worked his way to second, challenged for the lead and eventually finished third—a far better outcome than the blown engine disaster five weeks earlier.

“It ran all night and it ran perfectly,” Roa told Dave Stall on Sunday’s Racer Radio Show. “The guys at Shaver fixed it up pretty quick and it was solid all night long. It was around the bottom in the main event. That is really not my style of racetrack. I was second and made an attempt to go around RJ (eventual second place finisher RJ Johnson) and lost second. I settled into third. That was good, I will take it.”

Roa will return to Perris on September 19, but before that, he will head to his favorite West Coast track, Calistoga Speedway, for the Louie Vermeil Classic on Labor Day weekend.

“We are getting our ducks in a row,” Roa told Stall of his prep for the track located in California’s famous Wine Country. “It is my favorite track on the West Coast because of how big it is. I like tracks that are big and fast. That is why I like Perris so much, too.”

“We are looking for partners for the Calistoga weekend. It is a really cool event that has a lot of visibility (including world wide coverage on Flo Racing). The side of our hood is wide open for it. Anybody that wants to be a partner of a race team that big weekend can contact me on social media on Facebook or Instagram and we can work something out.”

The following marketing partners have backed Roa for the 2026 campaign. ALR Virtual Services, Biker Bruce, Caltrol, Innovative Sewer Scope and Plumbing, Big Chino Ranch, Molecule, Shaver Racing Engines, Barnes Pumps, and Specialized Coatings. If you would like to get involved and be a partner, contact Roa at the following mailto:brodyroa91@gmail.com - 714-932-7994.

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (Aug. 25, 2026) – Trey Starks enjoyed a dominating performance at Skagit Speedway last Saturday, giving him his 10th triumph of the season.

It marked his third straight year with double-digit wins and the fifth season in his career achieving that mark. More significantly, it was his first race since his second son was born.

“It’s special,” he said. “Two years ago, I won my first race after our first son was born, too. Those are special moments.”

Starks set quick time during qualifying and he gained a position to place third in a heat race to open the night. He then pulled the No. 1 during the feature redraw to garner the pole position for the 30-lap main event.

“The only thing we could have done better was win the heat race from fourth, which is really hard to do,” he said. “So we were pretty happy with how the night started and were able to capitalize on a good feature draw. After an initial caution, the race went non-stop and we got through traffic really well. I think we lapped up to eighth. We like those longer runs because we always seem to pick our way through traffic well.”

Starks led all 30 laps and won by 6.391 seconds, extending his lead in the Skagit Speedway 410ci winged sprint car championship standings to 162 points.

Also of note, it was the final 410 sprint car race at the track prior to the Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing tripleheader during Labor Day Weekend. The track showcases the Angel of the Winds Skagit Nationals Sept. 3-5.

“I feel great about where our program is at,” Starks said. “Just like last year, I feel we have a car capable of competing for wins when High Limit is out here. We have one more race there this coming weekend in the 360, which just gives us more laps before the High Limit weekend.”

Starks returns to Skagit Speedway this Saturday for the penultimate 360ci winged sprint car race of the season. He currently leads the driver championship standings by 24 points.

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing Score Pair of Runner Up Finishes with High Limit Racing

PETERSEN MEDIA: Refreshed after a couple of weeks away from racing, Landon Brooks and the Hamilton Racing team came out swinging to kick off their swing with High Limit Racing as they were one of three teams to finish in the Top-10 all three nights, including two career best runner up finishes.

“My guys have been working so hard all year long, and to come out and have the results and the performance like this during our biggest stretch of the year is awesome,” Landon Brooks said. “All three nights we were able to put complete nights together, and I am extremely proud of everyone’s efforts.”

Kicking the three night stretch off on Thursday night at Santa Maria Speedway, Brooks got the night started by timing the Lippert Construction/THE/Mozingo Construction entry in 12th fastest in qualifying time trials.

With the track staying heavy and fast for much of the night, Brooks was able to maintain in his heat race as he started and finished third which then locked him into the 10th starting position in the 35-lap feature event.

From his fifth row starting position, Brooks was able to mix it up with some of the best drivers in the country as he battled inside the Top-10 all feature long. Getting up as high as seventh at one point the close-quarters actions saw him drop back as far as 10th as the race wore on. In the end, Brooks kicked the opening night of his High Limit swing off with a 10thplace finish.

Friday night the scene shifted north as the series invaded Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, CA. A slick surface early in the night saw the Rio Oso, CA driver time in fifth fastest in qualifications.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, Brooks was able to slip into second as the green flag waved and the field charged into turns one and two. With not much passing taking place in heats, his runner up finish locked him into the 35-lapper where he took the green flag from the ninth starting position.

Following track prep, Brooks hit the track and showed he had a very strong car underneath him that allowed him to both rip the cushion as well as slow roll the bottom at the famed track.

Working his way into the fifth position on the sixth lap, Brooks continued to fight his way forward as he was into fourth on the 12th lap and then cracked a spot on the podium at the halfway point as he battled with the likes of Aaron Reutzel and Tyler Courtney.

With action all over the Thunderbowl Raceway surface, Brooks slipped back to fifth in the closing laps but a couple of big time moves at the end of the race saw him work into second, as he scored a career best finish with the series.

Riding the momentum into Saturday’s event at Placerville Speedway, Brooks again came out swinging as he timed in sixth fastest in time trials and again finished second in his heat race.

Qualifying for the Dash on this night, Brooks’ eighth place finish lined him up in the fourth row for the 35-lap feature event on a slick Placerville Speedway surface.

Just as he did the night prior, Brooks was again on the move early and often on this night. Jumping into fifth as the race went green, Brooks was able to take the fourth position on the 16th marker before racing into third two laps later.

Getting into second on the 21st lap, Brooks began to chase after Corey Day who ran ahead of him and in thick traffic. Cutting into Day’s lead, the battle appeared to be on as Brooks closed in on the 31st lap but a subsequent red flag was needed and took the leaders out of traffic and halted the battle.

The final four laps saw Day get away in clean air, but for the second night in a row Brooks and Hamilton Racing enjoyed a runner up finish.

“I really wanted to see the race not get interrupted late on Saturday night because traffic was definitely getting interesting,” Brooks noted. “But overall, I am just so happy for our team and I am extremely excited for these next four nights in Chico, CA.”

Landon Brooks and Hamilton Racing would like to thank Lippert Construction, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Mozingo Construction, Dan Ewart Sales, Clow Valve, Vinyltech PVC Pipe, Teichert Construction, Advanced Drainage Systems, B Scadden Designs, SIP, North Bay Waterworks, Custom Pipe & Fabrication, Star Pipe Products, Westlake Pipe & Fittings, Eagle Chassis, XYZ Manufacturing, Inc.

Joel Myers Jr Set for Gold Cup Race of Champions

PETERSEN MEDIA: Returning to his native California over the weekend to take part in the opening of High Limit Racing’s west coast swing, Joel Myers Jr had a tough ending to a solid Saturday night in Placerville, CA as he now prepares for this week’s Gold Cup Race of Champions in Chico, CA.

“It is always fun to get home and race the family car with so many friends and family members in attendance,” Joel Myers Jr said. “We were pretty good all night, but late in the feature we had a little miscue that essentially caused me to end our night a few laps early.”

With a robust 41 car field overflowing the pit area, Myers Jr timed the Graham Rahal Performance/Gary Tennyson Motorsports/All About Fire Protection backed No. 46JR entry in seventh fastest in his qualifying flight.

Lining up in the second row of his heat race, the Sebastopol, CA driver jumped into third when the race came to life as the field worked around the low side of the speedway. Holding the spot as the race came to an end, Myers Jr’s third place finish put him ninth on the starting grid for the 35-lap feature event.

As the feature event came to life, Myers Jr searched around the Speedway as track prep prior to the race gave drivers a few different lane options. Slipping back to 13th as he began working the low side of the speedway, Myers wasn’t able to make up ground but he maintained the spot and continued to run in the middle of the field.

With laps continuing to click off, Myers Jr started to search again as the race drew to a close. A restart on lap 31 saw Myers have some help getting up over the track’s banking and as he lost quite a few spots, he opted to stay off the surface and head back to the pit area and call it a night.

“Overall, I was pretty happy with how our night went,” Myers Jr said. “We were a little off in the feature and couldn’t get going, but I didn’t think we were too bad. Unfortunately, on the last restart we got off the track and instead of trying to fight back on I decided to call it a night.”

Joel Myers Jr and Hayward Motorsports would like to thank Velocity Engineering, Installtec Inc., RPM Chassis, DirtDudes Excavating, FK Rod Ends, Russ Wentcamp, The GR8 Company, All About Fire Protection, Sam Carbis Solutions Group, Brad Alexander Suspension, Jim O’Neal Ford, Blackburn Construction, Al Parker Engines, Nitro Alley Graphics, and Brown and Miller Racing Solutions.

SKAGIT SPEEDWAY

ALGER, WA – Join us this Saturday, August 29, for Birch Equipment Night at Skagit Speedway. The Exclusive Quality Custom 360 Sprint Cars are back, joined by the Skagit Casino Resort IMCA Modifieds and the Hornets.

The Exclusive Quality Custom 360 Sprint Cars rumble back into Skagit Speedway after last racing on August 15. Max Mittry picked up his first career Skagit Speedway win while driving the Jesse Schlotfeldt 21 car; however, he scored owner points for Robbie Price. Mittry pulled away from the competition and never looked back, leading all 30 laps. Eric Fisher finished second while Colton Heath drove from seventh to finish third. Neither Heath nor Fisher could get close to Mittry.

Trey Starks continues to lead the 360 Sprint Car points standings with 1024 total points despite missing a race. Colton Heath is second -24 points back, and Cam Smith is third -95 points back. In nine features run instead of 10 for both Starks and Heath, they both have yet to finish outside the top 10.

The Skagit Casino Resort IMCA Modifieds are back after last racing on August 1 during Breast Cancer Awareness Night when they ran topless. Rory Smith collected his second career win after moving around James Bundy for the top spot. Smith had to work for the win as Tyson Blood hounded the back bumper of the Victoria, British Columbia native; however, Smith held strong and picked up the win. Blood charged from ninth to finish second, and Cole Logan came from 10th to finish third.

Cole Logan continues to lead the points battle with 230 total points. Tyson Blood sits in a very close second place, just -2 points behind, while Rory Smith is third, -5. In six features so far this year, Smith, and Logan have finished outside the top five once, while Blood has not missed a top five finish this year.

The Hornets are back this weekend after last racing on August 15 when Trent Gillespie came out victorious. The race for the lead rotated between three different drivers: first Bryce Kolar jetted out to the early advantage before Mike Guffey took over the top spot. Then Gillespie took his turn at the top spot; the three raced tooth and nail for the win, but Gillespie prevailed and took the win.

Steve Peters leads the Hornet points battle with 843, Kolar is second -44 points, and Colin Sims is third -63 points.

WEST COAST WING DANCE: Aaron Reutzel kicks off West Coast Swing with win at Santa Maria; Gold Cup next

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 24, 2026) - High Limit Racing’s late August swing through the Golden State is just getting started, but for “A-Aron” Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR), things activated in the best manner possible, securing a victory at Santa Maria Speedway in Santa Maria, California, on Thursday, August 20.

Reutzel, now with 13 total triumphs on the season, earned his Santa Maria score from the pole position, forced to outduel Tanner Holmes and James McFadden in the process. The Clute, Texas, native opened the Series’ Santa Maria debut with the second-fastest qualifying time, racing on to finish third in his respective heat race. The combined effort allowed for an automatic Dash qualification.

Ridge & Sons Racing continued their tour of sunny California with a podium at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare on Friday, August 21, eventually capping their weekend with a 13th-place outcome at Placerville Speedway in Placerville on Saturday, August 22. With all results considered, “A-Aron” now finds himself in charge of the High Limit Racing national championship standings with a 49-point cushion over Fresno, California’s own Gio Scelzi.

“It feels great to be back in California, and a win makes our return even sweeter,” Ryan Wyant, RSR Team Manager, stated. “Actviating this stretch with a win at Santa Maria gave us the extra confidence we needed, and although we weren’t able to repeat at Thunderbowl or Placerville, we’re more than ready to get back at track in Chico.”

ON DECK:
Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing will continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with Silver Dollar Speedway’s Mike Curb Gold Cup Race of Champions presented by NOS Energy Drink on August 27-29.

The Madman concludes opening weekend of California stretch with top-ten at Placerville; Silver Dollar’s Gold Cup ahead

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

MIFFLINTOWN, Pa. (August 24, 2026) - Things started out slow for Kerry Madsen and Tony Vermeer’s Vermeer Motorsports, but “The Madman” soon prevailed, concluding their opening stretch of High Limit Racing’s visit to the West Coast with a top-ten at Placerville Speedway in Placerville, California, on Saturday, August 22.

Madsen, a one-time High Limit Racing winner in 2026, finished tenth in his top-ten appearance, commencing the 35-lap contest from the exact same position. The Knoxville wheelman via St Marys, New South Wales, Australia, launched his Placerville effort with the fifth-fastest time in his group, racing on to finish second in his respective heat race.

As hinted, the eventual top-ten was a perfect momentum kick, as Vermeer Motorsports missed main event action at Santa Maria Speedway on August 20, racing on to a 20th-place score at Thunderbowl Raceway on August 21.

“We’re always working for a little bit more, but we now have some momentum and we plan to use it,” Tye Wolfgang, Vermeer Motorsports Crew Chief, stated. “We needed a solid result to cap the weekend. The Gold Cup is a big deal and we want to be up front battling for a win. Here’s to a great three days at Silver Dollar Speedway.”

Andrews with All Star top-ten at Butler; Fremont Fair Race, Attica, Sharon all ahead

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

SANDUSKY, Ohio (August 24, 2026) - Chris Andrews and Chris Andrews Racing put it all together in their two-race swing through Ohio and Michigan. And despite the Sandusky wheelman missing the A-Main’s top-ten at Attica Raceway Park on Friday, August 21, it was all the opposite on Saturday in the Superior State, finishing ninth with the All Star Circuit of Champions at Butler Speedway in Quincy, Michigan on Saturday, August 22.

Andrews, the ace of his own Ohio Truck Sales, Real American Beer, Fleet Financial, Erie Waste, Cintas, Whiteford Kenworth, Toledo Spring, NAPA Fremont Auto Parts, TruckParts4U.com, No. 15C sprinter, commenced Butler’s main event from 19th on the grid, finishing fifth in his respective heat race to qualify. As noted, the former two-time Attica Raceway Park track champion and recent All Star Circuit of Champions winner just missed Friday’s top-ten at Attica, crossing the line 14th from 20th on the grid.

Although Friday’s event at Attica was not sanctioned by the All Star Circuit of Champions, many regulars attended, as their event at I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, Michigan, was canceled.

“Overall, a sound weekend. I think we were better than where we finished on Friday at Attica, but we passed some cars and made some progress,” Chris Andrews said. “We don’t have a lot of time to dwell. We’re heading to Fremont tonight for the 305 Fair Race, then we’ll be back to work at Attica and Sharon this coming weekend. It should be a lot of fun.”

ON DECK:
Chris Andrews and Chris Andrews Racing will continue their 2026 campaign with a visit to Fremont Speedway on Monday, August 24, followed by stops at Attica Raceway Park and Sharon Speedway on Friday and Saturday, August 28-29. Saturday’s Sharon takeover will feature the All Star Circuit of Champions.

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (August 24, 2026) - Jace Park’s decision to join the POWRi Honest Abe Roofing 410 Outlaw Sprint League through Kansas and Missouri proved prosperous for the Overland Park, Kansas, native, earning a pair of top-tens in three starts, one of which a podium score at Missouri State Fair Speedway on Sunday, August 23.

Park, a recent Knoxville Nationals A-Main starter, finished third in his podium outcome, commencing main event action from the pole position. It was Park’s preliminary effort that set the tone, clocking-in fastest overall in qualifying before finishing second in his respective heat race. Park’s combined point total from his preliminary effort secured the aforementioned pole positioning.

Padding his weekend stat card, Park’s Friday night effort at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, was also incredibly impressive, opening action with “quick time” before winning his heat race from fourth. Like his eventual placement at Missouri State Fair, Park’s Lakeside effort catapulted him to the A-Main pole; he finished tenth.

Just missing the top-ten, Park finished 12th at Lucas Oil Speedway on Saturday, August 22 - he started 15th.

“Just so proud of this race team. We put together a really consistent weekend, and although we weren’t able to capitalize on our pole positions, what we achieved is special. We’re excited for the rest of the year,” Park, the ace of his own Associates Insurance Group, Impact Signs/Awnings/Wraps, Adki Landscaping, FinanciaLife Outfitters, No. 28 sprinter, said. “The plan is to keep this momentum going in our final start at Knoxville.”

Whittall earns top-ten at The Grove; PA tripleheader to conclude August campaign

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

VINCENTOWN, N.J. (August 24, 2026) - Justin Whittall and JW Motorsports did their best to pad stats over the recent weekend, and despite a hiccup on Saturday at Port Royal that sent Whittall spinning while contending for a podium finish, stats were met Friday at Williams Grove Speedway, concluding the annual Jack Gunn Memorial with a top-ten result.

Whittall, backed by RBH Group, Turret Engineering, JG Kronenberger Fine Jewelry, Mid-Atlantic Transport, Pandemonium Bar & Grill, Pioneer Auto Body, Worldwide Bearings, Enterprise, and Milky Way Restaurant, finished eighth in his top-ten outcome, winning his respective heat race along the way.

In fact, the Vincentown, New Jersey, ace started seventh on the Living Legends Dream Race grid, powering his way to third before challenging Chase Dietz and Danny Dietrich for the $20,000 payday. Unfortunately, a late race spin cost him his winning potential; he was scored 14th.

The weekend pair were sanctioned by the PA Posse 410 Sprint Series.

“We wanted that one pretty bad. Our confidence was high heading into the weekend considering our recent win at Clinton County,” Whittall noted. “We’ll regroup this week and give things another go with three races.”

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

A dramatic ending, nonetheless, it was a late race caution that gave Dietrich the edge, powering by Dietz off of turn two with less than two to go.

A weekend trend, Dietrich was forced to survive a late race caution at Port Royal Speedway, as well, again with two-to-go with Chase Dietz and Ryan Smith in tow. Needless to say, Dietrich held strong, cashing in for a $20,000 payday.

The Gettysburg ace took command of Port Royal’s Living Legends event with 13 remaining.

“We plan to win a few more this weekend,” Dietrich was quick to note. “Just a tough season for us to this point. To come out here and win back-to-back races at home is really special. A great time to get hot, especially with so many big events coming up. Gary [Kauffman] and the team deserve these.”

Mark began a successful career that would take him across six states and even into Canada. Here at Mercer, he recorded an amazing 42 wins in the division and four track championships.

Mercer Raceway Park held a special place in Mark’s racing career. It was his favorite track, where he made a lasting impact both on and off the raceway. It was where he called home.

Mark tragically passed away on April 14, 2018, as the result of a non-racing automobile accident. At just 29 years old, Mark had already made a lasting impact on his family, friends, fans, and fellow racers.

Help us honor Mark, keep his memory alive, and keep the 8M Racing team in our hearts!

Brown caps Knoxville Nationals campaign with A-Main start; POWRi tripleheader on deck

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. (August 17, 2026) - Brian Brown’s 2026 Knoxville Nationals effort is officially in the books, and despite ending action short of his $200,000 goal, forced to conclude the 50-lap Knoxville Nationals championship A-Main as a “DNF,” much was achieved and gains were made, already setting aim on the 66th edition in 2027.

Brown, the ace of his Casey’s, FVP, Andy’s Frozen Custard, Wilkerson Crane Rental, Impact Signs Awnings and Wraps, Mountain Dew, Ditzfeld Transfer, Ditzfeld Container Service, No. 21 sprinter, was scored 23rd in Saturday’s finale, commencing action from 16th on the grid. It was his Thursday preliminary effort that set the tone, and after two whole nights of preliminary competition, Brown’s point total was the 16th best of the 100-car field - thus his A-Main starting position.

Brown’s preliminary results were highlighted with an 11th-place finish during feature action; he started sixth.

“Pretty successful week at Knoxville. Started out strong in our Prelim night which allowed us to ‘lock in’ to Saturday’s 50-lapper,” Brown noted. “Got rolling early in Saturday’s A-Main, but ended up having an electrical issue that forced us to ‘DNF.’ Overall, proud of the team and proud of our efforts. It was a long ten days at Knoxville Raceway, but Chad, JB, Devin, Robert, Dustin all worked their tails off and did a great job. Looking forward to some action a little closer to home with POWRi.”

ON DECK: Brian Brown and Brian Brown Racing will continue their 2026 campaign with a three-race POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League sweep through Kansas and Missouri, set to visit Lakeside Speedway, Lucas Oil Speedway, and Missouri State Fair Speedway on August 21-23.

Dover Posts Best Knoxville Nationals Prelim Result Since 2009 and Finale Finish Since 2014

Inside Line Promotions – KNOXVILLE, Iowa (Aug. 18, 2026) – Jack Dover produced his best Knoxville Nationals performance in more than a decade last week at Knoxville Raceway.

The Tim Estenson Motorsports driver drove from 20th to 13th on Wednesday during his preliminary night before placing 10th in the C Main on Saturday during the 65th annual NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals presented by Casey’s.

“Every time we went on the track and raced, we did well,” he said. “If we qualified better, we could have put ourselves in a much better position. The big picture overall was that we raced well.”

Dover opened his preliminary night on Wednesday by qualifying 40th quickest, which garnered the pole position of a heat race. A runner-up result in the heat race locked him into the main event. Dover worked the bottom groove to climb to 13th by the time the checkered flag was waved, marking his best preliminary night outing since 2009. His seven positions gained was tied for the third-most cars passed.

“We kept tightening up all night,” he said. “I had Brian Kemenah helping me and he’s one of the best. We both agreed we’re going to either run the top or the bottom. The bottom has been dominant all year at Knoxville so we set up for the bottom and it worked out well.

“I feel we weren’t tight enough on our qualifying night for qualifying and that hurt the result. We found a good balance on the car and I was excited to go qualify again during Hard Knox Night on Friday, but it rained out. We locked into Saturday night’s C Main, which was good and bad I guess. We wished we could have ran Hard Knox Night and moved ourselves up further, but then again it could have gone the opposite way.”

Unfortunately, rain wreaked havoc on the remainder of the event and altered the format as well as the racing surface during Saturday’s finale. Dover’s 10th-place finish in the C Main was his best finale result since earning the same result in 2014.

“There wasn’t anything you could do,” he said. “We had the same setup in as our qualifying night. We wanted to go out and just make good laps. I slipped up once and one guy got by me. That’s all you can really do in that circumstance when the track is so fast because of the rain.”

Dover plans on racing with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series and the Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series this Saturday at Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minn. He is the current MSTS points leader.

QUICK RESULTS –

Aug. 12 – Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa – Qualifying: 40; Heat race: 2 (1); Feature: 13 (20).

Aug. 15 – Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa – C Main: 10 (9).

SEASON STATS –

14 races, 3 wins, 8 top fives, 9 top 10s, 10 top 15s, 10 top 20s

UP NEXT –

Saturday at Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minn., for the FENDT Showdown with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series and Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series

SKAGIT SPEEDWAY PRESS RELEASE: 410 SPRINT CARS ARE BACK!
Erik List
ALGER, WA - Join us this Saturday, August 22, for All Phase Heating & Air Conditioning Night at Skagit Speedway. The Hill Meat Company 410 Sprint Cars are back, joined by the Sportsman Sprint Cars and the Midgets.

This Saturday will be the last time the drivers will be able to shake down their cars before the $126,000-to-win Angel of the Winds Skagit Nationals with Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing. The last time the Hill Meat Company 410 Sprint Cars hit the dirt at Skagit Speedway was August 1, during Breast Cancer Awareness Night. Justin Sanders stuck around for an extra week after racing the Bob’s Burgers & Brew Fred Brownfield 360 Nationals, and it paid off. The Watsonville, California native started on the pole and led every lap in a dominant win. Sanders swept the night after setting quicktime and winning his heat race as well.

While Sanders jettisoned away from the competition, the battle for second heated up between Colton Heath and Trey Starks. Starks moved into second on an early restart; however, Heath navigated back around Starks after he got slowed by a lap car. Heath pulled away from there, but coming out of turn four and to the checkered flag, Starks re-passed Heath for the second position. Starks continues to lead the 410 point battle with 1,155. Levi Hillier sits second -135 points back, and Tyler Thompson is third -148 points back.

The Sportsman Sprint cars are back for their second week of racing in a row. Macie Logsdon picked up her first win of the year last Saturday, August 15, after leading all 25 laps and surviving through multiple restarts during the race. Jailynn Serrano drove from fifth to second while Ryan Orchard finished in third. Jeff Westergard leads the points with 784, Logsdon is second -37 points back, and Serrano is third, -58 points back. Westergard has yet to finish outside the top five in seven features raced so far this year. Logsdon, Serrano and Jesson Jacobson have all yet to miss the top 10.

The Midgets are back this Saturday after last racing on July 11 during Hall of Fame Night. Alex Peck picked up the win that night after starting in the 7th position. Peck drove around Ashley Thompson for the top spot and never relinquished the lead. The win was Peck's second of the year. Shane Smith continues to lead the points battle as he looks to defend his points championship from a year ago. Smith leads with 602 total points; Jonathan Jorgenson is second, 73 points back, and Tyler Luce is third, 96 points back.

Bubba DeCaires Sixth as Weekly Action Resumes at Skagit Speedway

PETERSEN MEDIA: Getting back to Skagit Speedway on Saturday night after being idle for a couple of weekends, Bubba DeCaires had a nice showing in the pacific northwest as he picked up a sixth-place finish in the feature event.

“Saturday night went pretty well for the most part on a tricky surface,” Bubba DeCaires said. “In the feature I was able to get up into fourth, but working in traffic and on the rough surface I ended up slipping back to a sixth-place finish.”

Returning to the famed speedway nestled just outside of Burlington, WA, the Elk Grove, CA driver got the night underway by timing his Morrison Concrete/Max Sells powered by Red Leaf Realty/High Sierra Industries backed No. 94 entry in 10th fastest in time trials.

Lining up in the third row of his heat race, DeCaires was able to make a couple of nice moves as he worked his way up into third. Holding the third position for the closing laps of his heat, DeCaires was locked into the 6th starting position for the impending 25-lap feature event.

Dealing with a surface that was rougher than normal, DeCaires was able to quickly work his way into fourth as the race came to life. Turning in some strong laps as he navigated around the tricky surface, he soon found himself in traffic as he chased after the Top-Three.

Navigating with slower traffic, and being careful to avoid a few of the holes that had presented themselves, DeCaires had a couple of minor missteps that did prove to cost him track position.

Slipping back a couple of spots as the race drew to a close, DeCaires closed his night out with a sixth-place finish.

“I felt pretty good on the rough surface, and getting back to racing for the first time in a few weeks,” DeCaires added. “The track was not like anything we have really seen all year so that made it a little tricky, and trying to navigate that and deal with traffic caused me to make a couple of mistakes. Other than that, I was happy with how we unloaded and with the changes we made.”

DeCaires would like to thank Morrison Concrete, Max Sells powered by Red Leaf Realty, High Sierra Industries, JLC Performance, Tiner Hirst Enterprise, Wion’s Body Shop, and QuickCar Racing Products for their support.

BY THE NUMBERS: Races-14, Wins-0, Top 5’s-2, Top 10’s-6

ON TAP: DeCaires will be idle this weekend, but will be back in action at Skagit Speedway on August 29th.

King of Non Wing; Dakota Albright Wins Third Consecutive Feature Event

PETERSEN MEDIA- Dakota Albright continued his hot streak over the summer months as the Waterford, CA driver scored his third consecutive win of the year during Saturday’s non-winged event at Placerville Speedway. The win also netted him the King of Non-Wing mini series championship as he was able to score two out of three wins this season.

“I am extremely happy to get another win, and really happy with the changes we made since I didn’t feel that great early in the night,” Dakota Albright said.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, Albright was able to get the jump as the green flag was displayed to the field aboard his Thompson’s Family of Dealerships/Matos Accountancy/Greenwood Machine and Fab backed No. 35Jr mount.

Despite not feeling like he had a great car underneath him, Albright was able to race to the win before finding himself in the third row of the 20-lap feature event.

Opting to make a last minute gear change prior to the feature event being called to the track, Albright was happy with his decision as he was able to fire off well when the race went green as he jumped into third.

Running the first two laps in the ‘show’ position, Albright raced into second on the third stanza. With the track good enough to move around on, Albright was able to move around and track down the race leader on the ninth lap.

Powering into the lead at the halfway point, Albright continued to turn in strong laps while keeping the field at bay. Leading the rest of the way, Albright scored his third consecutive win with BCRA, and captured the King of Non-Wing Championship.

“To pick up our third in a row and win the King of Non-Wing is definitely cool, and deserved for our team,” Albright said. “On top of all of my partners, I also want to thank the track’s sponsor, Kings Meats, for the box we were able to take home for winning on Saturday as well.”

Dakota Albright would like to thank Thompson’s Family of Dealerships, Matos Accountancy, Greenwood Machine and Fabrication, 530 Wraps, Oval Chassis Research, Parker Performance and Fabrication, Romey’s Window Cleaning, Nutcher Milk, Angels Heavy Haul, West Steel and Plastics, Calhot Powder Coating, Sala Racing, Petersen Media, and Simpson Race Products for their support.

ON TAP: Albright will be back in this Saturday night for a non wing event at Placerville Speedway.

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Advance for Sixth-Place Finish at Knoxville Nationals

Inside Line Promotions – KNOXVILLE, Iowa (Aug. 18, 2026) – David Gravel and Big Game Motorsports recorded a sixth-place result late Saturday night and into early Sunday morning during the 65th annual NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals presented by Casey’s.

The crown jewel event at Knoxville Raceway had been delayed several hours because of rain with the checkered flag not falling until after 1 a.m. on Sunday.

The sixth-place showing was Gravel’s seventh top 10 at the Knoxville Nationals, including his fourth in the last five years.

The event got underway on Wednesday and Gravel was fourth quickest out of nearly 50 competitors. He charged from eighth to fifth place in a heat race, which missed locking into the A Main by only one position. Gravel ran third in the Last Chance Showdown to transfer into the last row of the main event.

The team gained a few positions throughout the first half of the feature before picking up steam in the waning laps to climb to a 12th-place result, which was the second-most positions gained. That put Gravel tied for fifth in points after the opening preliminary night and he landed in the 10th starting spot once both preliminary nights were completed.

Unfortunately, wet weather altered Saturday’s finale with the feature not getting underway until after midnight. Gravel climbed to eighth during the first half of the 50-lap main event and continued to move forward in the second half, gaining two more spots to place sixth. It was the fifth-best result of his career during the Knoxville Nationals.

Gravel resumes World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series points competition this Friday at Ogilvie Raceway in Ogilvie, Minn., during the Big O Showdown presented by Wagamon Brothers and Saturday at Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minn., during the FENDT Showdown.

Gravel has improved his result each of the three times he has competed at Ogilvie Raceway with a career-best run of third last season. He set the track record at Jackson Motorplex last year, but is still looking for his first World of Outlaws triumph at the track.

He enters the weekend leading the World of Outlaws championship standings by 180 points.

QUICK RESULTS –

Aug. 12 – Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa – Qualifying: 4; Heat race: 5 (8); B Main: 3 (3); Feature: 12 (23).

Aug. 15 – Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa – Feature: 6 (10).

Dominic Scelzi Eager for Opportunity With CJB Motorsports Throughout High Limit Racing’s West Coast Swing

Inside Line Promotions – FRESNO, Calif. (Aug. 18, 2026) – Dominic Scelzi will climb behind the wheel of a CJB Motorsports entry this weekend during an Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing tripleheader in his home state of California.

Scelzi will fill the seat of Brenham Crouch’s No. 5 for the next three weekends as Crouch was sidelined with an injury during the Knoxville Nationals last weekend.

The action begins this Thursday at Santa Maria Speedway in Santa Maria followed by a race on Friday at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare. The weekend wraps up on Saturday at Placerville Speedway in Placerville with the Gold Rush Classic.

“I’m incredibly excited for the opportunity and determined to help the CJB No. 5 team out while Brenham recovers,” Scelzi said. “I was in the Hall of Fame just above the crash Saturday morning and it was scary, not just from Brenham’s severity of the impact but my brother’s as well. I hope to help the No. 5 team navigate the West Coast successfully before Brenham is ready to climb back in the seat.”

The three-race weekend marks the start of a six-week stretch of national events for Scelzi, who will compete with High Limit Racing Aug. 27-29 at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, Calif., during the Mike Curb Gold Cup Race of Champions presented by NOS Energy Drink; Aug. 31 at Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Ore., during the SugarBee Showdown on the River presented by Seven Feathers Casino and Resort; and Sept. 3-5 at Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Wash., during the Skagit Nationals.

“I want to thank Chad Clemens, Barry Jackson, Heath Moyle and the entire CJB team for thinking of me as a fill-in driver,” he said. “I can’t wait to get started this weekend.”

Scelzi will then get back in his equipment for World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series shows Sept. 18-19 at Stockton Dirt Track in Stockton, Calif., during the Dennis Roth Classic; Sept. 22 at Kings Speedway in Hanford, Calif., during the Central Valley Clash; Sept. 25 at Bakersfield Speedway at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in Bakersfield, Calif., during the Nashville West Showdown; and Sept. 26 at Ventura Raceway in Ventura, Calif., during the Battle on the Beach.

“The next few weeks offer an opportunity to compete against the best drivers in sprint car racing,” Scelzi said. “We’re eager for the opportunity to get a little more than a dozen races against the top teams in the country to see where we stack up. We always circle these national races on our racing calendar each year and are excited they’ve arrived.”

Chance Grasty Third at Placerville Speedway

PETERSEN MEDIA- Getting in another night of action at Placerville Speedway on Saturday night, Chance Grasty and the F&F Racing team again had a great run as Grasty picked up a third-place finish at the famed bullring.

“It was a decent night for us result wise, but I really think we had a great car,” Chance Grasty said. “We got in some bad situations, but still managed to escape with a third-place finish.”

Drawing early for his time trials slot, Grasty was still able to get down a very strong lap as he timed the Bushey Financial Services/C&H Motor Parts/Sierra Single Ply Roofing backed No. x1 entry in fourth fastest overall.

Running a three-heat format on this night, Grasty’s qualifying time lined him up on the front row of his heat race. Getting a great jump when his heat came to life, Grasty’s got car upset in turns one and two causing him to slip back to second.

Unable to work his way back into the top spot, Grasty missed out on a spot in the redraw and found himself seventh on the starting grid for the 30-lap feature event, which would be the final laps on the track before this weekend’s High Limit event.

Finding himself in sixth before the race came to life, the initial green flag saw Grasty slip back to seventh as he settled in. As the laps clicked off, the Suisun City, CA driver was able to avoid some of the craziness that took place in front of him as he worked his way into fifth.

When the action resumed, Grasty was able to close the race with a very strong green flag run that saw him work his way forward even further as he was able to secure a third-place finish as the Ed Entz checkered flag was displayed to the field.

“It was just one of those nights where I kind of found myself in some bad situations in the feature,” Grasty added. “We had a good car with good speed, and I am hoping we can continue to stay strong during this High Limit Racing swing.”

F&F Racing would like to thank Bushey Financial Services, C&H Motor Parts, Sierra Single Ply Roofing, Triple X Race Co., Wrayvon, CRV Carbon Solutions, Econo Lube ‘N’ Tune, XC Gear, All Pro Heads, Engler, and Don Ott Racing Engines for their support.

ON TAP: F&F Racing and Chance Grasty will now meet up with High Limit Racing as they head into CA. Grasty will be in action Friday night in Tulare, CA and on Saturday night back at Placerville Speedway.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-28, Wins-2, Top 5’s-6, Top 10’s-18

Mallett Tackling ASCS National Tour Event at Riverside International Speedway This Saturday

Inside Line Promotions – GREENBRIER, Ark. (Aug. 17, 2026) – Jordon Mallett is making his second ASCS National Tour start of the season this Saturday at Riverside International Speedway.

It will mark his third visit of the season to the dirt oval in West Memphis, Ark., where he and car owner A.G. Rains have finished fourth and fifth, respectively, this year.

“We’re eager to compete with the ASCS National Tour and race at a track where we’ve been successful,” Mallett said. “I’ve won races there in the past, and A.G. and I have been solid in our two races at the track this season. I think we’ve left some on the table during those races, too, so that gives us confidence that we can be a contender this weekend.”

Mallett earned a runner-up result during his ASCS National Tour season debut in May.

“We had a really good car and the margin for error during that race was thin so we did our best to push the limit without crossing it,” he said. “I think we had a car capable of winning and we put ourselves in a good position. That’s the goal for this weekend as well.”

Saturday’s event is slated to be his final ASCS National Tour start of the season.

16 races, 1 win, 10 top fives, 12 top 10s, 13 top 15s, 16 top 20s

Rico and TSR earn Knoxville Nationals A-Main start; All eyes on California

Dates: Wednesday through Saturday, August 12th-15th Series: World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Event: 65th Knoxville Nationals Track: Knoxville Raceway (Knoxville, Iowa) Rico Abreu A-Main Finishes (Start): Wednesday: 14th (21st) Thursday: OFF Friday: OFF Saturday: 17th (11th)

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (August 17, 2026) - It was not the ending Rico Abreu wanted, but his accomplishments were worthwhile, concluding his 65th Knoxville Nationals effort with a Championship A-Main appearance.

Abreu, who finished 17th aboard Tony Stewart’s Carquest, Curb Records, Sugarbee Apples, Waste Connections, Arc Zone, Martin One Source, Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, No. 14 sprinter, qualified for the 50-lap, $200,000-to-win spectacle with an impressive preliminary campaign, all of which commencing with the second-quickest qualifying time, racing on to win the B-Main and climb from 21st to 14th in the A. The points earned were enough for Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing to “Lock In” to Saturday’s championship.

Needless to say, the season is far from over, as action will pick back up almost immediately with High Limit Racing competition in sunny California. Abreu, a St. Helena, California, native, who is High Limit’s defending National Champion, will enter the Golden State as the current Series points leader.

ON DECK: Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing will continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with a major stretch through California, set to visit Santa Maria Speedway, Thunderbowl Raceway, and Placerville Speedway on August 20-22.

HOME SWEET HOME: Dietrich and GKR to continue August slate at Williams Grove and Port Royal

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GETTYSBURG, Pa. (August 17, 2026) - Another Knoxville Nationals campaign has come and gone for “Double-D” Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing, and although their outing ended shy of Saturday’s Championship A-Main, their focus and determination has yet to waiver, already aiming big in upcoming starts at Williams Grove Speedway and Port Royal Speedway on August 21-22.

Dietrich, who concluded his Knoxville Raceway visit with a 17th-place outcome in Saturday’s Championship B-Main, will roll back into Central Pennsylvania with three wins to his credit, most recently at Clinton County Speedway in Mill Hall, Pennsylvania.

A successful remaining August slate will only prove vital, as many of Posse Country’s heavy-hitting programs are within the Fall schedule.

“We’re happy to be home, but we have a lot of work to do,” Dietrich, the ace of Gary Kauffman’s Weikert’s Livestock, Sandoe’s Fruit Market, Speedway Volkswagen & Subaru, Self Made Racing, York Excavating, Big Cove Whitetail Trophy Hunts, RV 4 Wheel Drive & Performance, No. 48 sprint car, said. “Can’t thank Gary [Kauffman] enough for the opportunity to return to Knoxville, as well as the crew for sticking it out over the last few weeks. We were up against the best in the world and we gave it all we could. We’ll see everyone at Williams Grove on Friday.”

ON DECK: Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing will continue their 2026 season with PA Posse 410 Sprint Series starts at Williams Grove Speedway and Port Royal Speedway on Friday and Saturday, August 21-22.

Whittall earns back-to-back podiums including Phil Walter triumph; PA Posse Series to continue at Williams Grove and Port Royal

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

VINCENTOWN, N.J. (August 17, 2026) - Justin Whittall and JW Motorsports put on a show in their recent weekend of competition, not only securing back-to-back podiums in PA Posse 410 Sprint Series starts at Selinsgrove Speedway and Clinton County Speedway on August 14-15, but a victory in the process, that accomplished in Saturday's visit to Mill Hall.

Whittall, the reigning Port Royal Speedway track champion, earned his Clinton County Speedway victory - dubbed the Phil Walter Classic - from eighth on the grid, powering to the top on lap 16 of 35. The eventual score earned the Vincentown, New Jersey, wheelman a $6,300 payday, as well as valuable points in the PA Posse 410 Sprint standings. With all results considered, including Friday’s third-place outcome at Selinsgrove Speedway, Whittall is now third in the PA Posse 410 Sprint Series standings, a mere-70 points out of the top spot.

“Overall, a great weekend for our team…consistent from start to finish and a real confidence booster,” Whittall, the ace of his own RBH Group, Turret Engineering, JG Kronenberger Fine Jewelry, Mid-Atlantic Transport, Pandemonium Bar & Grill, Pioneer Auto Body, Worldwide Bearings, Enterprise, Milky Way Restaurant, No. 67 sprinter, said. “We were in a prime position to sweep the weekend, but we’ll take this as a great step forward and keep things moving. We’ll work to repeat this Friday and Saturday at Williams Grove Speedway and Port Royal Speedway.”

Axsom earns Knoxville Nationals B-Main start; WoO schedule continues in Minnesota

2026 World of Outlaws Team Standings: 12th | 5614 points

Dates: Wednesday through Saturday, August 12th-15th Series: World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Event: 65th Knoxville Nationals Track: Knoxville Raceway (Knoxville, Iowa) Emerson Axsom A-Main Finishes (Start): Wednesday: 23rd (22nd) Thursday: OFF Friday: OFF Saturday: 24th (2nd) | B-Main

GREENFIELD, Ind. (August 17, 2026) - It was a wild ride in the Hawkeye State for Emerson Axsom and Klaasmeyer Petry Motorsports (KPM), but despite the ups and downs, their Knoxville Nationals campaign had plenty to show far, all of which highlighted with a Championship Saturday B-Main start on August 15.

Axsom, who calls Franklin, Indiana, home, earned his way into Saturday’s B-Main by way of impressive preliminary effort, launching Wednesday’s program with the third-fastest qualifying time, racing on to finish fifth from eighth in his respective heat. An eventual B-Main transfer position (as only four made the cut from each heat) allowed Axsom to start the preliminary A-Main, but unfortunately, after climbing from 22nd to 13th, he rolled to stop.

With his preliminary effort accounted for, and an eventual weather hiccup from Mother Nature, the adjusted Hard Knox program allowed Axsom to start second in Saturday’s 22-lap Championship B-Main. But again, mechanical hiccups interfered; he was scored 24th.

The team will have little time to dwell, as World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series competition will resume in Minnesota almost immediately.

ON DECK: Emerson Axsom and Klaasmeyer Petry Motorsports (KPM) will continue their 2026 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series campaign with upcoming starts at Ogilvie Raceway in Ogilvie, Minnesota, and Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minnesota, on Friday and Saturday, August 21-22.

Doney-Lawson Racing battles through Knoxville Nationals; POWRi triple on deck

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

ODESSA, Mo. (August 17, 2026) - It was a roller coaster week for Xavier Doney, Doney-Lawson Racing, and the Schnee-Lawson Chassis House Cars, but when the dust finally settled, metaphorically speaking, the team out of Odessa, Missouri, had much to be proud of, concluding Knoxville Nationals competition with a Championship Saturday B-Main appearance by Xavier Doney.

Doney, powered by Kat Excavation, Pella Building Systems-Mini Storage Specialists, Schnee-Lawson Chassis, Motor Haven, Five Star Bodies, Stanton Racing Engines, CALI Floors, Wilwood Disc Brakes, DMI, Schaeffer Oil, Outlaw Wings, Schoenfeld Headers, Smith Titanium, and Design Source Flooring, finished 15th in Saturday’s B-Main, commencing the 22-lapper from 13th on the grid. A consistent week, nonetheless, Doney’s preliminary outing concluded in the B-Main, as well, launching his effort with the third-fastest qualifying time of 49 starters.

Although the team has plenty to be proud of, Doney-Lawson Racing has little time to celebrate, as their POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League commitments resume in a hurry, blasting off with a three-day showcase on August 21-23. In fact, the three-race schedule will include three different facilities, making tracks at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas; Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri; and Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia, Missouri, respectively. Xavier Doney will enter the trio fourth in the POWRi standings, padded by two victories as well as eight top-tens in 14 feature starts.

Doney-Lawson Racing and the Schnee-Lawson Chassis House Cars will continue their 2026 campaign with a three-race POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League sweep through Kansas and Missouri, set to visit Lakeside Speedway, Lucas Oil Speedway, and Missouri State Fair Speedway on August 21-23.

Jace Park powers to Knoxville Nationals A-Main start

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (August 17, 2026) - When Knoxville Nationals preliminary competition finally came to rest, Overland Park, Kansas’ own Jace Park was 20th in the overall standings. And with Mother Nature forcing a condensed Hard Knox program on Saturday afternoon rather than Friday evening, it was the positive kick Park needed, allowing a direct path to Saturday’s 50-lap finale (now taking 20 automatic bids instead of 16) rather than the B-Main.

Park, the ace of the Associates Insurance Group, Impact Signs/Awnings/Wraps, Adki Landscaping, FinanciaLife Outfitters, Clem Helmets, Maxim Racing, Weld, Flying A Motorsports, Schoenfeld Headers, Allstar Performance, No. 28 sprinter, raced on to finish 16th in the 50-lap, $200,000-to-win finale, powering ahead four spots from the outside of row ten. The eventual Knoxville Nationals A-Main start was padded by an impressive preliminary outing, concluding Wednesday’s contest with a three-way battle for the win, leading 14 laps in the process before crossing the line third.

Needless to say, Park’s experience was exceptional.

“A lot of emotion in those few days. We were super proud to be locked into Saturday’s B-Main at the very least, then when things changed and it allowed us the opportunity to automatically start the A, it was quite the rush…took a little bit of time to sink in,” Park said. “I can’t say enough about this team. Everyone works so hard and I’m very grateful to be a part of it. I’m surrounded by a lot of great people and it certainly shows. We’re going to celebrate this one for a while.”

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

MIFFLINTOWN, Pa. (August 17, 2026) - The 65th Knoxville Nationals may be complete, but the year is far from over, as “The Madman” Kerry Madsen and Vermeer Motorsports are set to continue their 2026 High Limit Racing campaign with a full swing through the Golden State, all of which activating at Santa Maria Speedway in Santa Maria, California, on Thursday, August 20.

Madsen, the ace of Tony Vermeer’s Vermeer Motorsports, TK Concrete, Maxim Trucking & Materials, Logan Contractors, No. 55 sprinter, will continue on with starts at Thunderbowl Raceway and Placerville Speedway on August 21-22. The Knoxville, Iowa, resident via St Marys, New South Wales, Australia, will enter the California stretch seventh in the High Limit Racing national championship, less than 100 points out of sixth occupied by Myerstown, Pennsylvania’s Brent Marks.

As noted, Vermeer Motorsports will swing through California with a recent Knoxville Nationals start to their credit, concluding the four-day contest in Saturday’s championship B-Main; Madsen was scored 18th.

“Not the Knoxville Nationals conclusion we wanted, but with all things considered, we did what we could and we’re ready to move forward,” Tye Wolfgang, Vermeer Motorsports Crew Chief, stated. “We had a lot of challenges thrown our way, weather being a major factor, but we’ll head west with a full head of steam. We’re excited to get back to some of these California bullrings.”

Reutzel, who concluded his Knoxville Nationals effort in the championship B-Main, will race on with visits to Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, California, and Placerville Speedway in Placerville, California, on Friday and Saturday, August 21-22. The Clute, Texas, native and 12-time feature winner in 2026 will roll into sunny California as the second-best ace in the High Limit Racing national championship, trailing Rico Abreu by eight markers.

As noted, Reutzel and RSR concluded their Knoxville Nationals appearance in Saturday’s B-Main, scored fifth after starting in the exact same position. Unfortunately, only four drivers made the cut for the 50-lap finale.

“We wanted more out of our Knoxville Nationals performance, but considering all circumstances, it’s hard not to be proud of our efforts,” Ryan Wyant, RSR Team Manager, stated. “This entire Ridge & Sons Racing team did their best to put our Power Plus, Folkens Brothers Trucking, Don Long & STC, B And L Holdings, Rasmusson Service Center, Bargain Barn, No. 87 sprint car up front, but at the end of the day, we’re strong enough to reset and move on. We still have a High Limit Racing national championship to earn.”

Brody Roa Back in Action at Perris Auto Speedway Saturday

Cypress, CA — August 12, 2026 — Good news for Southern California sprint car fans. Brody Roa picked up his repaired engine from Shaver Specialties on Monday, installed it in his familiar green #91R and will be back in action when Heimark Distributors presents the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars at Perris Auto Speedway this Saturday, August 15.

“The Pride of Garden Grove” got a late start to his 2026 sprint car season, making his first appearance when he finished second in the Salute to Indy at Perris on Memorial Day weekend. Four weeks later, he went one spot better with a convincing victory on the Riverside County half-mile.

Three weeks after his win, the 2023 USAC/CRA champion returned to Perris and laid down a sizzling 16.997 on his first qualifying lap. That ended up being the third quickest of the night. Unfortunately, he slowed dramatically coming off turn two on his second lap and headed back to the pits. His night was over.

The problem was eventually traced to failed rocker arm bolts that knocked several pushrods out of position. Roa took the engine to Shaver Specialties in Torrance hoping the damage was not severe enough to keep him out of this Saturday’s race. He got the news he wanted when he picked it up on Monday.
