  Smith, Reinbold, Paulus score Impact Signs Awnings & Wraps Open Wheel Showdown wins at Lucas Oil Speedway

  WHEATLAND, MO. (May 4, 2024) - Wesley Smith of Nixa led all 25 laps to capture the POWRi WAR Sprint League feature victory Saturday night, turning a close battle into a runaway late as he beat Jack Wagner by 2.8 seconds. The victory, at the 13th annual Impact Signs Awnings & Wraps Open Wheel Showdown at Lucas Oil Speedway, moved Smith into second place in all-time POWRi WAR wins with 14. Smith is 2-for-2 in 2024, adding to a feature win in the season opener at I-70 Speedway. "I think they put some new dirt on this surface and definitely for the better," Smith said of Lucas Oil Speedway. "It's definitely a little tricky. It's not the smoothest or the fastest surface I've ever raced on, but it's one of the funnest. It seems the WAR Series is putting on some great shows." Smith started up front and led the opening lap as Kory Schudy moved into second before a caution flew on lap two. Wagner, of Lone Jack, moved around Schudy for the second spot two laps after the restart. The order remained that way as the laps ticked by with Smith maintaining a quarter-second lead over Wagner. Those two waged a tremendous battle for the lead as the race reached lap 12 when Wagner couldn't quite pull off a slider for the lead. No matter what Wagner tried, Smith was up to the challenge and he was able to use lapped traffic to expand his lead to close out the wire-to-wire victory. "Man, that was a fun race," Smith said, noting Wagner's near-pass eight eight laps remaining. "I told him after the race 'if you'd have waited one more corner and one more lap, you'd have passed me.'" Schudy, of Battlefield, Mo., finished third with Keith Martin of Cleburne, Texas, coming home in fourth. In other divisions of the Open Wheel Showdown: Reinbold earns first POWRi Midget League victory: Hayden Reinbold of Chandler, Ariz., dominated from start to finish for his first POWRi National and West Midget league career victory. The 20-year-old Reinbold started on the pole and rolled to the lead in a race slowed by only one early caution. He opened a 2.2-second command over Shannon McQueen by lap nine and maintained consistent laps the rest of the way to lead all 15 circuits. McQueen, of Bakersfield, Calif., held off 15-year-old Gunnar Setser of Columbus, Ind., for the runner-up positions. Broc Elliott of California, Mo., finished fourth. "We've been struggling a little bit lately, so we came down here to run POWRi and we had a lot of fun," Reinbold said. "It was a bummer we were rained out last night (at Callaway Raceway) but we were super happy to show that we have some speed. "This place is awesome. The facility is nice," Reinbold said of Lucas Oil Speedway. "I've been here once before and I crashed, but I had a lot of fun (tonight). This place is sick." POWRi Ozark Region 360 Sprints: Miles Paulus overtook Randy Martin with three laps remaining and went on to score his first POWRi Ozark Region 360 Sprint feature victory. Paulus, of Marshall, started fourth and gave chase to Martin most of the way before finally reeling him in and making the decisive pass. Paulus wound up beating sixth-starting Gunner Ramey and Paulus at the checkers. Martin sprinted to the lead from the start as Paulus gave chase and had a one-second lead over Paulus 10 laps into the feature. As the race continued under green, Paulus cut the lead to .090 of a second by lap 16. Paulus completed his march to the front by sliding past Martin in turn two on lap 17 with Ramey, from Sedalia, right behind. Once out in front, Paulus pulled away as Martin, of California, Mo., and Ramey went back-and-forth for second. Paulus finished 3.06 seconds in front of Ramey with Martin settling for third. "Everybody on the side of this car ... I get to stand here and say that I won, but we won as a team," Paulus said. "I'm very grateful for their support. It's a team effort."

  Thornton Sweeps Mid-Atlantic Weekend with Port Royal Triumph

  PORT ROYAL, PA (April 28, 2024) - Ricky Thornton Jr. swept the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Mid-Atlantic swing, winning on Friday night at Georgetown Speedway in Delaware and Sunday night at Pennsylvania's Port Royal Speedway. Thornton led every lap of the Battle in the Borough to score his 33rd career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. With the weekend sweep Thornton becomes the first driver to go over $100,000 in season earnings after picking up the $10,000 victory at Port Royal. It was not easy at Port Royal for Thornton as Mike Marlar stayed within striking distance throughout the race. Marlar ended up in the runner-up spot at the checkers; 1.538 seconds behind the winner. Garrett Alberson earned his second straight Big River Steel Podium finish by taking third. Jonathan Davenport and Devin Moran, who dropped back as far as 15th rallied to round out the top five. "I felt like my stuff was really good there," said Thornton who was in Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the fifth time in 2024. "I was trying to play it a little in one and two, but I think I let Mikey get a little closer to me. Luckily the yellow came out because I think maybe he would have won. I have got to thank whoever brought out that yellow because it put me back out front. It was starting to get a little treacherous there up top, but I figured if you were going to win you had to be up there." "I have a little bit of body damage. I had to settle back down a little bit after I saw Mikey there. You go so fast down the straightaways here it's easy to overshoot the top and that will get you in trouble. I knew I had to calm down; like I know we have a good car, so I didn't want to mess it up. For the most part most the traffic was patient, and they left me a lane around the top." Marlar tried several times to pull even with Thornton in turns one and two but could never muster enough to clear him to officially lead a lap. "That's just how it goes sometimes. Ricky should have won the race here last year, but broke. That's part of the comings and goings in racing. I'm just glad we were able to race him good. We were horrendous on Friday night. We got rained out last night, so it feels good to head back to Tennessee on a good note. This track is unbelievable. You can race 10 different ways here into the corner. I felt like I drove the car good there and felt like I made good decisions. I got by him, but it didn't work out." Alberson earned his third, third-place finish of the season - inching closer and closer to his first career series win. "Hats off to the track crew; that thing was really fun; you could move all over the place. I think we needed to stay green there because they [Thornton and Marlar] started dicing there in lapped traffic and I kind of had a lane that they weren't running in. I think it could have gotten really good. I am just super stoked to drive this car and I love these big tracks." The winner's Todd and Vickie Burns, SSI Motorsports ,Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Big River Steel, Hoker Trucking, Coltman Farms, Dyno One Inc., West Side Tractor Sales, Bilstein Shocks, EMD Wraps, and Sunoco Race Fuels. The rest of the top ten finishers were Max Blair, Mason Zeigler, Jimmy Owens, Tyler Erb, and Carson Ferguson.

  Ricky Thornton Jr. Goes Back-to-Back at Georgetown

  GEORGETOWN, DE (April 26, 2024) - For the second consecutive year, Ricky Thornton Jr. was a man on a mission at Georgetown Speedway. The current Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series points leader won the Melvin L. Joseph Memorial Race earning $19,049 on Friday night. Thornton led all 49 laps to earn his fourth series win of 2024. Devin Moran finished second followed by Garrett Alberson, Jonathan Davenport, and Ross Robinson. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 32nd time in his career, Thornton exclaimed he has taken a liking to Georgetown's race track the last two years winning both times the series has appeared at the 3/8th's mile. Moran tried to make it close when the two encountered traffic, but timely caution flags thwarted any ideas that Moran had to overhaul Thornton. Thornton's winning margin at the finish was 1.679 seconds. "I love coming here," said Thornton. "I wish we were here more often. I don't know, there is something about this place that fits me. I am not sure if we had the best car or not, I felt like when I got to traffic, I got slowed down quite a bit. The car was really good. We have a lot more work the next two nights, it's definitely a good way to start the weekend. I moved up in three and four and I thought it's hairy out here. My crew told me to get back to the bottom. My car was good after those restarts; the yellows came out at an opportune time for me when I got to traffic." Moran continued his surge in the series with his third straight Big River Steel Podium as he nailed down the runner-up spot at the checkers. "I felt like I could keep pace with Ricky. I don't think I was any better than him. I was hoping to get in lapped traffic. I was wanting to be able to try it on the top of three and four, but Ricky and those guys are obviously always on it so congratulations to those guys. All-in-all it was a good run. I have a decent track record here at Georgetown. I love coming here to race." Alberson, who led several laps in this event a year ago rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "I am not sure why I get around here so well. Growing up I didn't think tracks like this would be my thing. I am just super proud of my guys. It was really fun. I was surprised how much speed you carry off in there. It didn't look like it had the banking to be able to do that. Hats off to Ricky and Devin; it was a fun race." The winner's Todd and Vickie Burns, SSI Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and is sponsored by Big River Steel, Hoker Trucking, Coltman Farms, Dyno One Inc., West Side Tractor Sales, Bilstein Shocks, EMD Wraps, and Sunoco Race Fuels. Completing the top ten were Jimmy Owens, Tyler Erb, Tim McCreadie, Daulton Wilson, and Max Blair. Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Race Summary The Melvin L.

  Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: Fan favorite Cornell looks to make most in break from Super Late Models

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 24, 2024) - Kaeden Cornell ventured into the world of Super Late Model racing with big dreams and a limited budget. That combination usually doesn't lead to a great deal of success against teams that combine talent and money. The 23-year-old from Willard still has aspirations to compete at the highest level of Late Model racing, at some point. But for now, he and team owners Rick and Melissa Hoover, are returning to their roots. That isn't necessarily a bad thing for Cornell, a four-time Lucas Oil Speedway winner of the fan-voted Most Popular Driver Award from 2017-20. "Right now, I just want to race. I actually haven't got to race a lot the last couple of years," Cornell said. "I know it sounds cliche, but I want to win races." Driving the same Black Diamond chassis as he debuted in 2023 but with different tire, motor and shock packages, Cornell is back at Lucas Oil Speedway - at least occasionally - in the Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Model division. He finished second to reigning track champ Justin Wells in last week's Big Adventure RV Weekly Championship Series program and looks forward to giving it another go this Saturday night. "Any time I get to go back there, it's like a homecoming," Cornell said of Lucas. "That place is like home with all the laps we've made there. It's great to be back and see all the fans, the racers, the staff and everyone there. Everyone is always so nice there." Cornell started out at Lucas Oil Speedway in USRA B-Mods before becoming a championship contender in the weekly Late Model Series when Rick Hoover gave him a ride in 2017. He won three Late Model features in 2019 and two more in 2020. From 2021-23, he and Hoover Motorsports gave the higher levels of dirt Late Models a try and had a few top-10 runs scattered along the way. But the team was plagued by motor issues and had to back it down this season, after only attempting seven races in 2023. Despite the frustration, Cornell thinks he's become a wiser driver with some of that experience against the national and regional teams. "Just how hard those guys drive," Cornell said of his top takeaway. "You can't take one lap off. It's dog-eat-dog. That's why they're the best of what they do." Something that seems straightforward, such as time trials to earn a heat-race starting position, is of ultra importance. "You go out and make those two laps and I'd pull in and tell Dad (and crew chief Aaron Cornell) that I was exhausted," Cornell said. "You're just holding your breath the whole time because those laps are so important. If you start in the back against those guys, you might as well load up and go home. "The open Late Model deal, it straight-up comes down to funds. It's so expensive to be competitive. I'm so thankful for Rick and Melissa Hoover. They've been so good to me, giving me the opportunity to drive a Late Model." Cornell said there's a chance, if the season goes well, the team could enter a couple of Lucas Oil MLRA type of races late in the season. Two of his better runs came last fall, a 10th and a seventh on back-to-back nights at the MLRA Ron Jenkins Memorial. But for now, he's keeping his focus on once again winning at Wheatland and some other regional ovals. He plans to hit some other POWRi Late Model events and Cash Money Late Model Series races this summer. "At least we got the dust knocked off," he said of last week's runner-up finish. "I haven't got to race a bunch the last two years. It was good to be back at Lucas Oil Speedway, where we've made a bunch of laps. "I wish we had won our heat race and had a chance to start up front in the feature. Justin's really good. There's a reason he's in the Hall of Fame."

  Gillmore earns USRA B-Mod feature win in Lucas Oil Speedway Weekly Series opening-night headliner

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 20, 2024) - Ryan Gillmore stalked the leader through numerous restarts due to cautions, then pounced with three laps remaining to capture the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods feature Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Gillmore, of Springfield, beat Nevada's Jon Sheets by just under one second to grab the headliner of the Big Adventure RV Weekly Championship Series opening-night program. A total of 73 cars checked into the pits on a cool Public Telecommunicators Appreciation Night at the Races. Other feature winners included Derek Brown (O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars), Justin Wells (Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Models) and Robbie Reed (Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds). Gillmore had to patiently wait out a series of cautions and ensuing restarts to make his winning pass with three laps remaining in the 25-lap main event. He earned $750 for the victory. Early on, Sheets used the high groove to pressure Tanner Kade for the lead by lap four, then made a pass out of turn four for the lead to complete lap five. He wasted no time opening up a one-second lead over pole-starting Kade with Gillmore running third. The race's first caution came on lap seven and bunched the field, just as Sheets was threatening to make it a runaway. Kade spun in front of several front-runners in turn two on the restart, eliminating himself and fifth-running JC Newell from contention. That allowed Gillmore and JC Morton to move into second and third. Morton moved to the low side and worked into second by lap 15 after a fifth restart, but a lap later Gillmore was back chasing Sheets as Morton fell a spot. Sheets and Gillmore traded slide jobs on back-to-back laps until Gillmore finally worked himself into the top spot off turn four on lap 22. "That was awesome," Gillmore said of the hot battle between himself and Sheets with Morton also in the mix. "JC was down there rolling the bottom and Sheets was just not messing up. I threw kind of a half-slider on him and it was game-on from there. Thanks to Jon for racing me clean. That was a lot of fun. "The first time I tossed it in there, I wasn't 100 percent sure," Gillmore added of the sliders. "The second time I hit it a little harder and I hoped it was gonna be good. You have to be confident that you're gonna clear the car and respect who you're with and if they don't have respect for you, they're gonna show you." Gillmore had a five-car-length lead when the race's seventh caution appeared on lap 23 to set on a two-lap sprint to the finish. Gillmore had a great restart on the low groove and drove away, finishing eight car lengths in front of Sheets with Morton third. "I kind of hated those cautions because my car wouldn't take off, it wasn't running the best," Sheets said. "I really wanted it to stay green. But congratulations to Ryan. That was a pretty good race there." Defending track champion Bobby Williams wound up fourth with Travor Drake fifth. Brown earns USRA Stock Cars win: Derek Brown of Stoutland took the lead for good on lap 15 and held off Jaylen Wettengel the rest of the way to grab the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars feature win. Rodney Schweizer started on the pole and led the opening two laps, but fifth-starting Johnny Fennewald was pressuring for the lead when a caution waved on lap four. One lap after the restart, Brown passed Fennewald for second place. Brown continued his momentum and worked alongside Schweizer before passing on the outside coming off turn four for the lead on lap 10. But back came Schweizer, re-taking the top spot on lap 12. Jaylen Wettengel joined the battle and it was a three-car tussle for the lead by lap 15, when Brown emerged the leader once again. The terrific battle was slowed for a caution on circuit 16 to set up a four-lap sprint to the finish. Brown said the caution might have helped him as he noticed Wettengel running the low groove and making good time just prior to the yellow coming out. "I saw him down there and I was a little confused where to go," Brown said. "I kind of stole his lane." Brown maintained the lead from the low line as action returned to green, leading Wettenel and Fennewald when caution came out again with two laps left. Brown had a good restart and held off Wettengel for the victory by .670 seconds. Fennewald wound up a close third with Waylon Dimmitt fourth and Schweizer finishing fifth. Wells scores POWRi Late Model triumph: After dominating the Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Model division in 2023, Justin Wells is at it again. Wells grabbed the lead on lap six and drew away for his second victory of the new season, outdistancing runner-up Kaeden Cornell in a caution-free 20 laps. "This track was picture-perfect," Wells said, praising the new dirt surface this season. "I haven't raced on something like this in a long time. The (MLRA) Spring Nationals was awesome last week, but I think this was better yet. It was a driver's track." Tucker Cox started up front and led the first two laps before Greenway paced the next three. The fourth-starting wells moved into second place on lap four and was able to pass Jim Greenway for the lead coming off turn two on lap six. An 11-time winner at Lucas Oil Speedway in 2023, Wells opened a two-second lead by lap 10. With the race remaining caution-free, Wells continued to roll and extend his margin over the field. The veteran from Aurora finished the race 3.7 seconds in front of Kaeden Cornell. Cox was third with JC Morton fourth and Kyle Graves fifth. While it was opening night for three of the classes, Wells posted his second feature win of the Lucas Oil Speedway season. He prevailed on April 6 on the Easter Bowl Enduro 150 program. Reed wins USRA Modifie feature in a runaway: Robbie Reed of Mexico, Mo., started up front and led all 20 laps, beating runner-up Dean Wille by 6.3 seconds in the Arctic Food Services USRA Modified feature. Reed and Middaugh started on the front row and Reed set the early pace, running off to a 2.5-second lead over Dean Wille by lap five with Middaugh in third. Reed, the Lucas Oil Speedway track champ in 2019 and 2020, had a full straightaway margin over Wille by lap 13 and, without any cautions, made it a rout. Reed said he was driving a new DK Chassis race car that was on the dirt for the first time. Wille was a solid second with Middaugh, the reigning track champ, settling for third. Chase Sigg wound up fourth and Jason Pursley was fifth.

  Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: Busy Dayton Pursley looks for more success in 2024

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 18, 2024) - Dayton Pursley grew up going to the races at Lucas Oil Speedway as his dad, long-time USRA Modified driver Jason Pursley, chased victories. So it was pretty special for Dayton when he won his first feature race at the speedway last summer. "That meant a lot to me," Dayton Pursley said of his Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod victory last June. "I know from lap one through lap 20, I was the most nervous I'd ever been. I told myself every corner not to spin out, not to do anything wrong because JC Morton was closing on me. Just trying to run the best race I could." The 21-year-old from Hermitage is ready to chase more checkered flags this season, beginning with the Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series opener on Saturday night. The B-Mods will headline the action with a special 25-lap, $750-to-win main event. It will be Public Telecommunicators Appreciation Night at the Races. In observation of National Public Telecommunicators Week, to show appreciation to the 911 dispatch agencies, all 911 dispatchers will be admitted FREE with ID or Badge. The Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Models, Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds and O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars will join the B-Mods. Pursley also picked up a feature win at Midway Speedway as part of a solid 2023 season. He finished third in Lucas Oil Speedway points, behind track champion Bobby Williams and two-time champ Morton. "It was a pretty good season," Pursley said. "I didn't get a lot of wins, but I got better with the car in my first year with it. I struggled early in the year, but the longer the season went the better I got." This season won't find Pursley chasing points, however, as his racing day job will keep him busy. As new crew chief for Brennon Willard on the Lucas Oil MLRA circuit, Pursley will be overseeing Willard's Capital chassis race car on weekends that the MLRA series is in action. That was supposed to have been the case this weekend, but MLRA action in Iowa was postponed by wet weather. "Whenever Brennon doesn't race, I'm going to race my car," Pursley said. "Throughout the week, I'll go home to my dad's shop and work on my race car and get it ready. Other than that, I'm a full-time crew chief/tire guy for Brennon." Pursley got experience working on Late Models a couple of years ago doing tire prep for Earl Pearson Jr. He sees it as a great way to spread his education of what it takes to build and maintain a full-time racing program. What he learns on the Late Models doesn't directly help in prepping a B-Mod, but he said there are some things that will be a benefit in his planned move to a USRA Modified a year from now. But overall, he's enjoying the Late Model knowledge he's picking up in a crew chief role. "It really has made my knowledge for the race car a lot better. I've learned so much already and it's only April," Pursley said. I'm working on shocks and the actual set-up of the race car. I think it will help me with my own racing career and then also helping my dad and uncle (Donnie Fellers). My knowledge is a lot more than it was four months ago." While he won't race weekly in 2024, Pursley said he has high hopes for making a splash in his Skyrocket Chassis at Wheatland and other speedways. "I'm gonna try to go to the bigger money races or go to Lucas and support them," Pursley said. "The more seat time a get and the more tracks I can say I raced at, the better it will be." Team sponsors include CPD Racing Shocks, Earl-F Electric, DF Safety Solutions, Tom Campbell Racing, Loto Lifts, DP Race Bodies, E3 Spark Plugs, Fast Shafts by Axle Exchange, Icon Race Graphics, Skyrocket Chassis, Balanced Speed and Dayton Pursley Racing. POWRi Super Stocks added to pair of programs: Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager Danny Lorton has announced that the POWRi Super Stocks have been added as a special guest class to Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series programs on June 15 and July 27. Both events will pay $500 to win. Jr. Pit Tour and Kids Power Wheel Races: Pit gates open at 4 p.m. Saturday with grandstands at 4:30, hot laps at 6:30 and racing at 7:05.

  Davenport wires field to complete MLRA Spring Nationals sweep at Lucas Oil Speedway

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 13, 2024) - Jonathan Davenport lived up to his nickname of "Superman" once again on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway, completing a dominating weekend sweep of the 11th annual MLRA Spring Nationals Presented by Arizona Sport Shirts. One night after leading all 40 laps to take home a $7,000 prize, Davenport paced all 60 circuits to once again outdistance Ricky Thornton Jr., and take home the $20,000 check. After winning five times at Lucas Oil Speedway in 2023, the Blairsville, Ga., driver is two-for-two this season after beating Thornton by 4.23 seconds for his latest triumph in south-central Missouri. "We got a good starting spot from qualifying," Davenport said. "My guys have been doing a great job. We were so good in that heat race, we were afraid to change anything. We over-adjusted last night. We did finally make some changes there and i don't know if they were the right ones, we it sure made it easier to drive. I could maneuver very well. The car was really good." Just as he did a night earlier, Davenport sprinted to the lead at the start from his front-row starting position. He opened a 3.1-second lead just six laps in over Mason Zeigler with Thornton Jr. running third. By lap 12, Davenport caught lapped traffic and that allowed Zeigler to shave a half-second off his lead. It didn't take Davenport long to stretch his command back out to 4.07 seconds by lap 20 as Thornton moved into the runner-up spot. The long green-flag run from the start continued and Davenport threatened to make it a complete runaway as his lead hit 4.8 seconds by lap 25. That's when the first caution flew as Chris Simpson slowed on the track with a flat tire. Davenport rolled from the restart and needed just five laps to re-open a 1.5-second lead over Thornton with Garrett Alberson third and Zeigler fourth. His margin was 2.1 seconds when the race's second caution appeared on lap 35 after Matt Johnson's spin in turn four. It took only three laps after the restart for the next caution, with the top four unchanged. However, Mike Marlar continued an impressive march, going from 21st and into the fifth by lap 38 when a five-car pileup in turn three brought out the red to clean up the debris. When action resumed, it was more of the same with Davenport using the high groove to quickly open a two-second lead over Thornton by lap 43. Marlar continued to ascend using the extreme low line, passing Alberson for third on lap 46 and 2.5 seconds behind the leader. The race remained caution-free the rest of the way and that was all Davenport needed to weave his way through lapped traffic all the way to the checkers. Thornton held off Alberson for second with Marlar slipping to fourth in the final laps. Zeigler settled for fifth and reigning MLRA champ Chad Simpson was sixth for the second straight night. Davenport said he didn't change his driving approach after the cautions wiped out his sizeable leads, but he definitely kept an eye on the video board to see who was behind him. "I got into a pretty good rhythm there and the biggest thing that won me the race was through lapped cars," Davenport said. "I tried not to get complacent and get behind one. Even if it was the wrong line, I tried to keep my momentum up and try to pass them in the next corner. "I knew those guys were right on me. Ricky's been really good and Garrett was coming up through there." Thornton said he thought the final caution would provide him a chance to see how he matched up with Davenport after losing to him at the finish by just over a second on Friday night. "The one yellow came out and I thought I could at least see how comparable I am to him and he just drove off," Thornton said. "That's why we're here. We need to get better. We'll keep working. "Hopefully when we come back here for the Show-Me (May 23-25) we can finish a little better in the heat race. That's a big thing here." Dustin Hodges posted the fastest qualifying lap at 14.788 seconds out of Group A, while Davenport set fast time in Group B at 14.873. They both won their heats to secure front-row starting positions. Poe wins POWRi Super Stocks feature: Aaron Poe of Knob Noster emerged a narrow winner after a tight battle over the final 14 laps to earn the POWRi Super Stocks feature win. Ted Welschmeyer took the lead at the start over Friday-night winner Taylor Carver. Those two were side-by-side for the lead when a lap-six caution flew. Poe powered from third to the lead on the restart on lap seven. He and Welschmeyer battled it out from there with Poe riding the high groove and Welschmeyer the low side. That's how they stayed until the finish, with Poe, the reigning POWRi Super Stocks national champ, winning by .578 seconds. Afterward, Welschmeyer's car failed technical inspection. Brian Brown was elevated to second with Carver third, Derek Brown fourth and Derek Henson fifth. Clevenger rallies late to win SMVR feature: Damen Clevenger rallied in the final half of the Show-Me Vintage Racers main event to come away with the feature win over Friday-night winner Brandon Jordan. John Martin started on the pole and sprinted to the lead for the start, opening a two-second margin over Bryant Moyer by lap seven. Clevenger, who started seventh, moved into second by lap nine when a caution slowed the field. Jordan, re-starting fifth after beginning the race 14th, rolled into the lead on lap 11. He and Clevenger raced side-by-side over the next two laps with Clevenger forging into the lead with one to go. Clevenger was able to hang on to beat Jordan by .275 seconds for his third career SMVR win at Lucas Oil Speedway. "It helped me catch the lead car," Clevenger said of the caution. "The track was tacky and fast, especially down on the bottom once we got down there. That's where we ran them down at. It was a good, close race." Don Marrs wound up third with Jim Thorne fourth and David Isaacs fifth.

  Davenport does it again at Lucas Oil Speedway, capturing 11th annual MLRA Spring Nationals opener

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 12, 2024) - Another season meant another trip to victory lane at Lucas Oil Speedway for Jonathan Davenport. The Blairsville, Ga., driver led all 40 laps Friday night and withstood a late charge from Ricky Thornton Jr., to capture the Night One feature at the 11th annual Lucas Oil MLRA Spring Nationals Presented by Arizona Sport Shirts. Davenport beat Thornton by 1.02 seconds to earn $7,000 in the MLRA season opener. This after winning four Lucas Oil MLRA or Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series features at Lucas Oil Speedway in 2024, plus the SRX Series main event here. "I don't know, this place just fits me," Davenport said of his success on the Wheatland dirt. "It constantly changes and gives us all a curve ball for sure. It feels good to come back after that special win the SRX Series. That was definitely cool. "I just have to thank my guys for all they do for me and thank Longhorn. This is a brand new car. All the guys back at the shop worked hard on this thing." A total of 44 Late Models were on hand for Night One of the Spring Nationals with 117 total entries in four divisions checking into the pits. The stakes will be even higher on Saturday night with $20,000 on the line for the Lucas Oil MLRA 60-lap feature win. "Thanks to all the fans for coming out," Davenport said, urging the fans to bring some friends for Saturday's finale. "We'll see if we can get another one." Davenport grabbed the lead at the start and opened a 1.5-second lead over Mason Zeigler four laps in when the first caution came out as Matt Johnson slowed in turn four. Garrett Smith got around Zeigler on the restart, but another yellow flew on lap six. A debris caution on lap nine, the race's third yellow, again halted Davenport's momentum as Smith, Zeigler and Tony Jackson Jr. gave chase. Finally getting an extended green-flag run, Davenport used the clean air to open a 2.4-second lead over Smith by lap 20, the event's midpoint. Meanwhile, Thornton rallied from his seventh-starting spot into third by lap 24 as he got around Zeigler. One lap later, Smith hit the wall exiting turn four and rolled to a stop to bring out caution No. 4. That erased Davenport's 2.6-second lead over Thornton, with Zeigler third and Jackson fourth. Davenport quickly moved away after the restart to lead by 1.9 seconds by lap 30 as Thornton was fighting off Zeigler for second. But Thornton started cutting into the margin as Davenport caught lapped traffic with seven laps remaining. Thornton made a final try on the final lap, diving low into turns three and four, but "Superman" was able to hang on by about five car lengths for the victory. Zeigler finished third with Garrett Alberson fourth and Jackson winding up fifth. "You never know who is coming from behind," Davenport said of the late going. "Ricky didn't qualify very well and I knew he'd be coming up through there, plus there were several other cars that didn't get a good qualifying lap in. "That's one thing about Wheatland. If you don't like the race track, just wait a minute because it's going to change. But I didn't get quite as slick tonight as I thought it would. The top stayed there longer than I thought it would." Thornton said the poor qualifying effort, which relegated him to seventh at the start, was too much to overcome. "Early in the night we were about a second off the pace to these guys," Thornton said. "We'll see if we can get a little better early in the night and start a little farther forward. But once the track slowed down, our car really came to us. "Congrats to J.D. His stuff looked really good and he was kind of on cruise control. Hopefully we can get a little better." The overall fast qualifier was Davenport, who paced Group B with a lap of 14.802 seconds. He went on to win his feature to earn a starting spot on the front row. Reigning MLRA champion Chad Simpson of Mount Vernon, Iowa, started sixth and finished sixth in the first series action of the season. Mike Marlar charged from 15th to finish seventh. POWRi Super Stocks win goes to Carver: Taylor Carver of Lockesburg, Ark., led all 20 laps for the POWRi Super Stocks feature win, holding off Ted Welschmeyer. Carver started third, but was able to grab the lead on lap one. After two cautions slowed the early action, Carver opened a 1.5-second lead over Welschmeyer who drove around Brian Brown on lap four to get into second. Carver caught lapped traffic by the midway point on lap 10 when the event's third caution bunch the field. Three more yellow flags over the next five laps prevented the leader from getting away. On final caution with two laps to go gave Welschmeyer one more chance, but Carver was up to the challenge and finished his flawless run. He prevailed by 1.07 seconds. Ed Griggs rallied from 13th to finish third with Kenny Carroll fourth and Brian Brown fifth. Jordan earns Show-Me Vintage Racers victory: Brandon Jordan of Pineville, Mo., took over the lead from pole-starting at the start and went on to capture the 15-lap Show-Me Vintage Racers feature. Jordan, who started outside of row one, won by 2.6 seconds. A caution with five laps remaining erased a three-second lead, but Jordan regrouped as action went green and cruised to the finish. Jordan dedicated the victory to his youngest granddaughter P.J. who was recently diagnosed with autism. "A lot of these kids are bullied and ridiculed and I think people need to make themselves aware that their mind just works a little differently," Jordan said. "A lot of the smartest people in the world also have autism. I'm so happy I could get this win. I wish they could have been here tonight." Jim Thorne finished third with Bryant Moyer fourth and Rodney Ashworth coming home in fifth. Lewis scores Legends win: Second-starting Jackson Lewis took the lead on lap four and led the rest of the way to grab the 15-lap Legends feature victory. Lewis, of Lakeview, Minn., beat Michael Weber by 1.6 seconds for the victory with Chance Gilbert finishing third, Jay Reynolds fourth and early leader and pole-starter Griffin McGrath fifth.

  Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: Racing veteran Vanzandt eager to take his MLRA shot

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 10, 2024) - One of the newcomers on the Lucas Oil MLRA series in 2024 probably has more lifetime laps to his credit that most of his opposition. Certainly, Jimmy Vanzandt has seen and done about all there is during a racing career of more than four decades. The Springfield-based driver has competed on dirt and pavement over the years and even gave the MLRA a brief whirl more than 20 years ago. In recent seasons, he's been a regular on the Cash Money Late Model Dirt Series. "I decided after last year that I wanted to do something different and I was running out of years to do it," Vanzandt said. "I thought I would try the MLRA. I ran it years ago, back when Kenny Essary had it. So I thought I'd try it. I know I'm crazy, because these guys are super fast. "If I can make the show, I'll be happy. But I'm gonna have fun either way." Vanzandt, who turns 63 in about a week, plans to hit MLRA races within an eight-hour radius from home. It begins this Friday and Saturday at Lucas Oil Speedway for the 11th annual MLRA Spring Nationals Presented by Arizona Sport Shirts. The doublelheader begins on Friday when the MLRA standouts compete for a $7,000 feature win. The stakes are even higher on Saturday with the feature winner collecting $20,000. Vanzandt said he decided the time was right to chase one of his remaining racing dreams and see how he stacks up against some of the best in the business. "I've never got the opportunity to do this before," Vanzandt said. "I'm probably not gonna go out and win races, but I'm gonna give it my all. Who knows? We'll see what happens. I'm gonna make as many shows as I can. "If we do really good, it's hard to say how many races I[ll run. If you're doing good, you can sometimes get resources you couldn't come up with before." Vanzandt wound up fifth in Cash Money points a year ago after finishing third in the 2023 standings. He has a new Longhorn chassis and Roush-Yates motor with tech and set-up support from Billy Moyer Jr., who has moved from the driver's seat into a consulting role. Moyer Jr. helped Vanzandt dial the car in during a test session last week at Batesville, Ark. Vanzandt's career began about 47 years ago at the Springfield Fairgrounds. He's driven Bombers, Street Stocks, Modifieds and Sportsman cars over the years, in addition to the Late Model on pavement and dirt. He was a consistent contender on the asphalt at Lebanon I-44 Speedway for several years before returning to dirt about five years ago. "The dirt is a lot more fun," Vanzandt said. "Just the people. It's a different world. Everybody's friendly and can't wait to help you, it seems like. I've got a lot of buddies with tractor trailer rigs that we buddy up with. They don't treat me different than anybody else does. "With the dirt there's a lot more cleaning, a lot more maintenance. You have to stay up on everything." Helping him stay up with maintenance are crew members Perry "P Dog" Burton and Mark Reynolds. Team sponsors include Dirtworx General Contracting, Mossy Oak Properties, Double Down Asphalt, Hauter Fireworks, Pappy's BBQ, Carrie's Place, Gunny's Mill, Queen City Bail Bonds, Vanzandt's Affordable Auto Repair and Simpson Performance Products. "We're just going to go out and try to make shows and have as much fun as we can," Vanzandt said. The MLRA season was scheduled to open last weekend with the Winter Meltdown at Tri-City Speedway, but that event was canceled due to wet grounds from heavy rain earlier in the week. Also in action Friday will be the POWRi Super Stocks running for $500 to win with the Show-Me Vintage Racers and Legends will be racing. On Saturday, the POWRi Super Stocks will be in action racing for $1,000 to win with the SMVR Show-Me Vintage Racers also on the program. POWRi Super Stocks, Legends and SMVR drivers are asked to fill out a MyRacePass driver profile sheet online to help the announcers. This weekend's action will be shown on Flo Racing and MAVTV and an updated profile info form would help immensely. A practice session will be held for all competitors racing this weekend will be held on Thursday night from 6-9 p.m. Pit passes are $30 with grandstand admission free. Limited concessions will be available on the pit side. The first 500 fans through the grandstand gate on Saturday will receive a free 2024 Lucas Oil Speedway schedule magnet courtesy City Magnet. Pit gates open at 4 p.m. and grandstands at 5 both days, with hot laps at 6:30 and racing at 7:05.

  MLRA HEADS TO LUCAS OIL SPEEDWAY FOR 11TH ANNUAL "SPRING NATIONALS"

  Wheatland, Missouri (April 9, 2024) - The Lucas Oil Midwest Late Model Racing Association (MLRA) will kick off their 2024 season in record breaking fashion this weekend, when the series invades the Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri for the 11th Annual MLRA "Spring Nationals" Presented by Arizona Sport Shirts. Two complete nights of racing action awaits what is expected to be a star-studded field of racers, all competing for their share of the record purse which will exceed $90,000 in total for the two-day event. Drivers will have an opportunity to get dialed in on Thursday night April 11th with an open practice session at the "Diamond of Dirt Tracks" from 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM. The first official green flag of the season will drop on Friday night April 12th with racers battling for a $7,000 top prize and the upper hand in being the first to secure the Midwest Sheet Metal Point Leader Spoiler for the season. Saturday night will feature the biggest pay out in MLRA Spring Nationals history, with the winner driving away with $20,000. All drivers making the weekend finale on Saturday will earn a minimum of $1,000. Prior to the start of Saturday nights "A" Main, race teams and officials will take part in a special on track ceremony honoring the life and contributions of long time MLRA series photographer and official Lloyd Collins, who recently passed following a brief battle with cancer. Collins was greatly respected and well known all around the pits from the racers and teams to his fellow photographers. One driver who is looking to get off to a quick start this weekend is the MLRA's defending Sunoco Race Fuels "Rookie of the Year" winner Dillon McCowan of Urbana, MO. The now 20-year-old jumped onto the late model scene one year ago after a successful run in the USRA Modified ranks, where he snagged a pair of track championships at the Lucas Oil Speedway. The driver of the Scott Bailey powered Longhorn has already competed just shy of twenty nights in 2024 following the early season "Speedweeks" tour and feels it has prepared him and made him better for the MLRA season ahead. "Starting the season off down in Florida I think helped us a lot, it kinda kick started our year. Hopefully we can take what we have learned from the races we ran already this year and carry that off into the MLRA season." "We are going to try and chase after the championship again this year and run the full season with the MLRA. Coming off last year we had a really great season. It could have went a little bit better, but we had a couple of really strong finishes and we were blessed with how good we did last year, so hopefully we can transition that off into this year." Dillon McCowan # 8 Photo Credit: Lloyd Collins FastTrack Photos In 2023 McCowan parked his Sonic # 8 on the MLRA podium with third place finishes in two of the last three series events. More impressive for the rookie was his ability to contend with the best in the business in almost every event at the Lucas Oil Speedway, as he logged 5 top ten finishes in 7 starts, which included a 6th place finish in the Show-Me 100. For the upcoming season, McCowan has also brought on board a new crew chief in Tony Rogers. "He said he was ready to get back into the late model business, so we are excited to have him with us. We have been around each other for a long time, you know the whole team has, and we thought it would be a really good fit to have him on board," noted McCowan. Rogers spent numerous years turning wrenches for 2016 MLRA champion Jesse Stovall, and most recently worked in the modified ranks for Terry Phillips Racing. Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series regulars Ricky Thornton Jr. and Jonathan Davenport both made stops in MLRA victory lane one season ago during the Spring Nationals weekend. Now with a handful of nights of getting to race door to door with drivers of that caliber, McCowan is confident that added experience will begin to pay dividends for his team. "It's crazy to get to go out there and run sometimes in the front with the best in the business, and the idols I've looked up to and wanted to race with for a long time. Getting out there and being with them and learning from them, you know just trying to pick up on the little things that they do that will get me going faster every time I'm out there." With this weekend being just the beginning of a long 25 race MLRA schedule for McCowan and his MLRA counterparts, it will be key for everyone to get off to a good start at a track that hosts ten points events in determining the season champion. "The last thing we want is to leave the home track having to play catch-up," he noted. "Hopefully we can run upfront and carry that speed off into this year, and I think if we can have a good finish, we all will be really happy with that for sure. If you can have a good run and get out front it can really help to set up the whole season."

  Lucas Oil Speedway ready for 11th annual MLRA Spring Nationals this weekend

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 8, 2024) - Lucas Oil Speedway plays host to its first multi-night special of the season on Friday and Saturday with many of the nation's top Late Model stars expected for the 11th annual Lucas Oil MLRA Spring Nationals Presented by Arizona Sport Shirts. Chad Simpson of Mount Vernon, Iowa, will begin pursuit of a third straight series championship on Friday when the MLRA standouts compete for a $7,000 feature win. The stakes are even higher on Saturday with the feature winner collecting $20,000. Simpson earned three MLRA feature wins and seven top-five finishes in 2023 when he earned his fourth series championship. He finished 270 points in front of Chris Simpson of Oxford, Iowa. Third-place points finisher Dillon McCowan of nearby Urbana was third while earning MLRA Sunoco Rookie of the Year honors. The MLRA Series figures to be as competitive as ever. Four-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series champion Earl Pearson Jr., announced recently that he and his Jason Rauen-owned team will follow the MLRA circuit this season from their base in Farley, Iowa. Pearson, 52, dropped from the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series last month citing a lack of crew help. That ended nearly a 20-year continuous run on the national series. Pearson has four career MLRA victories with his last coming in April 2019 at Thunderbird Speedway in Muskogee, Okla. The MLRA season was scheduled to open last weekend with the Winter Meltdown at Tri-City Speedway, but that event was canceled due to wet grounds from heavy rain earlier in the week. Also in action Friday will be the POWRi Super Stocks running for $500 to win with the Show-Me Vintage Racers and Legends will be racing. On Saturday, the POWRi Super Stocks will be in action racing for $1,000 to win with the SMVR Show-Me Vintage Racers also on the program. POWRi Super Stocks, Legends and SMVR drivers are asked to fill out a MyRacePass driver profile sheet online to help the announcers. This weekend's action will be shown on Flo Racing and MAVTV and an updated profile info form would help immensely. A practice session will be held for all competitors racing this weekend will be held on Thursday night from 6-9 p.m. Pit passes are $30 with grandstand admission free. Limited concessions will be available on the pit side. The first 500 fans through the grandstand gate on Saturday will receive a free 2024 Lucas Oil Speedway schedule magnet courtesy City Magnet.

  Tattershell captures Easter Bowl Enduro 150 as Lucas Oil Speedway opens season

  WHEATLAND, MO. (April 6, 2024) - In order to capture the Easter Bowl Enduro 150 on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway, it took avoiding on-track mayhem and mechanical malfunction while also getting a passing grade in the post-race trip to the tech building. Will Tattershell of Bois D'Arc, Mo., was able to meet all three of those standards. As a result, despite taking the checkered flag in second place, Tattershell came away the $1,500 first prize in the headliner of Lucas Oil Speedway's season-opening program. Other feature winners included Logan Roark (POWRi Midwest Mods), Justin Wells (POWRi Hermitage Lumber Late Models) and Darin Porter (POWRi Pure Stocks). A total of 95 cars checked into the pits in the four divisions. The finale was the third annual marathon and it appeared that Derrek Wilson of Chanute, Kan., was the winner of the race that took one hour and four minutes to complete. Wilson took the lead with 45 laps remaining and held it to the finish, taking an apparent win over Tatterhsell by about a straightaway's margin. But Wilson was disqualified afterward when his car failed post-race inspection. Kevin Perkins of Sedalia took the lead on lap 47 and built an 11.6-second lead by lap 60. Alex Thomas cut the gap to just under six seconds when Perkins had a flat right-front tire on lap 84 and had to pull off, giving the lead to Thomas. Wilson was 9.1 seconds behind when Perkins went off, but he began to chase down Thomas. He caught him on lap 105, taking the lead in turn two. Tattershell was in third, 10 seconds behind Thomas as the only other car on the lead lap at that point. Wilson's lead was 4.7 seconds by lap 120 with Tattershell 7.2 behind the leader as the finish began to come into focus. Thomas, who set the early pace as he started on the pole, began to fade by lap 130 and surrendered the runner-up position to Tattershell with 20 to go. Wilson maintained his lead as the laps continued to click away. Tattershell kept cutting into the deficit, drawing within 4.5 seconds of Wilson with 10 laps to go. But Wilson cleared lapped traffic and was able to maintain his lead at just over four seconds with five remaining. Wilson, with earlier Enduro wins this season at Springfield Raceway and 81 Speedway, hung on from there and took the checkers 6.3 seconds clear of Tattershell. Bill Polzin of Creighton, Mo., officially wound up second with Thomas, of Macks Creek taking third followed by Blake Davidson and Jet Herrick. Roark earns Midwest Mods win: Logan Roark made the winning pass with five laps remaining and went on to earn the POWRi Midwest Mods feature victory in a race plagued by multiple early cautions. Jacob Hall started third and found his way into the lead on lap two, taking over from pole-starting Jacob Long. Roark, who started fifth, moved into the runner-up spot by last three and worked in the inside line to try and get around the leader. Finally getting some consistent green-flag laps after six cautions before five official laps were completed, Roark pulled alongside Hall on lap 15 and was able to get by for the lead. Roark, of Henley, Mo., held on from there. He worked through lapped traffic and finished .982 seconds in front of Hall. It was Roark's second feature win in two nights as he prevailed at Midway Speedway on Friday. "I was just trying to hit my marks every lap," Roark said of his strategy as he waited for some green-flag laps and the winning move. "I knew he had a good hot rod. Wow, what a race." Steve Muilenburg rallied from 10th to third with Pete Richardson winding up fourth and Scott Campbell was fifth. Justin Wells rolls in Late Models: The POWRi Hermitage Lumber Late Model feature winner was a familiar face. Justin Wells, who captured 11 feature wins last season at Lucas Oil Speedway, started the new season with a convincing triumph. Wells, of Aurora, beat Payton Looney by 2.8 seconds at the finish. He led all 25 laps with only two cautions delaying his march to victory lane and the $1,000 first prize. "You could add both the ages of the second and third place (drivers) and they're not my age," Wells said with a laugh. Justin Wells outgunned Cole Wells at the start and opened a 2.4-second lead by lap six, when the race's first caution flew. When action resumed, Payton Looney needed just two laps to move around Cole Wells for second. Catching the elder Wells was another matter. Justin Wells poured it on, opening a 3.3-second lead by lap 14 when a second caution wiped out the big lead with 11 to go. Wells gradually pulled away after the restart as the race stayed caution-free and rolled to the win over Looney, a former Show-Me 100 winner who was driving for Moon Brothers Racing. Tyler Kuykendall finished third with Jim Greenway fourth and Justin Russell fifth. Porter wires field in Pure Stocks: Darin Porter of California, Mo., led all 20 laps for the POWRi Pure Stocks feature victory. Porter started on the pole with Trevor Wilson to his outside and they ran 1-2 through the early portion with Robbie Jones in third. Porter had a 1.4-second lead at the midway point on lap 10 and his lead surpassed two seconds just two laps later. Without a caution over the final 15 laps to slow him down, the defending POWRi Pure Stocks national points champion kept rolling and beat Wilson by 3.6 seconds at the finish. Justin Pike wound up in third with Grayon McKinney fourth and Chris Tonoli in fifth.

(April 3, 2024) - When drivers arrive for Lucas Oil Speedway's first event of the 2024 season on Saturday, they'll find a dirt surface refurbished in the offseason with 450 loads of new clay dirt. Through two preseason Open Test and Tune sessions, Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager Danny Lorton said the surface has been smooth. "We are learning it holds moisture more than before, but we are also in the rainy season and cool temperatures," Lorton said. "So it's hard to say if it will be the same when it starts warming up and we have hotter temps. Each night will be a learning curve for us, also." Lucas Oil Speedway starts its season with the 3rd annual Easter Bowl 150 Enduro headlining Saturday night's action. The 150-lap lap race will pay the winner $1,500. The Enduro will come at the end of a program that includes the Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Models racing for $1,000 to win.

  Davenport Sweeps Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Action at Atomic

  CHILLICOTHE, OH (March 24, 2024) - Jonathan Davenport was the driver to beat on Sunday night at Atomic Speedway as he made a clean sweep of the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series program. Davenport set the overall fastest time in Allstar Performance Time Trials, won his heat race to earn the Victory Fuel pole, and topped it off by winning the Buckeye Spring 50 to earn the $12,000 top prize. Davenport's second win of the season broke a streak of 10 straight Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series races that saw 10 different winners. The three-time champion earned his 76th win with the series. Mike Marlar was the only other driver to lead laps in the main event as he held the point for laps 15 and 16 after taking over the lead from Davenport, who had led the first 13 circuits of the race. But Marlar's top spot was short-lived as Davenport made a daring move coming off turn two on lap 17 to retake the lead which he held to the finish. Marlar came home in second with Devin Moran, the previous night's winner at Brownstown coming from the 11th starting spot to round out the Big River Steel Podium in third. Jimmy Owens, who holds the late model track record at Atomic was fourth, with Bobby Pierce completing the top five drivers. Davenport picked a fine time to turn around his weekend after finishing 15th at Brownstown on Saturday night. "Anytime you can set fast time, win your heat, and win the feature you know it just caps off the whole night. Mikey [Marlar], he run me pretty hard through lapped traffic and man there was one time when lapped cars got together and I had to squeeze between them and the wall; man, that was really close right there, but it was a lot of fun," said the Blairsville, Georgia driver. "There were some timely cautions for sure. I didn't know to be down on this end [turn four] early. I thought through the middle would be best, but I kept trying to move my line and I could never really get off the throttle like I needed to. I was moving around a little bit in one and two, but not much because there is so much banking down there, but I started coming off of it earlier and that helped me," Davenport added. Marlar, coming off a third-place finish at Brownstown the night before, improved one spot in the finishing order at Atomic. "When I got the lead, when Davenport got bunched up there in traffic and slid up a little bit and I got him and when he entered down here in one I thought I could enter below the lapped car and just be half on him on exit nobody was going to go around me. I went in there and got free and I let Jonathan have enough room behind that lapped car to come back in front of me. That was a big mistake on my end, but you know it's hard racing and it's fun and me and him had a heck of a race." Moran, who picked up his first series win of the season the night before, was looking for a clean sweep of the weekend but came up short in doing so in his home state despite a valiant effort from the inside of row number six. "This place you just can't pass a car one lap it takes a couple of laps to maneuver around someone. Charlie Vest [Atomic promoter] and them guys done a great job with the track. I thought we were going to be in trouble when they went out and watered it a little bit, but it really made a good race out of it. I just needed to qualify better tonight. We were pretty limited on tire selection tonight, so everyone was pretty much on the same stuff. I wish we could have started a little further up front. If that caution hadn't come out in the heat and I beat Ricky [Thornton Jr.] we might have had a chance in the feature." The winner's Lance and Darla Landers, Double L Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Nutrien Ag Solutions, Dyna Gro Seed, Lucas Oil Products, Bilstein Shocks, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas, and VP Fuels. Completing the top ten were Tim McCreadie, Nick Hoffman, Ricky Thornton Jr., Max Blair, and Garrett Alberson.

  Devin Moran Earns First Career Brownstown Victory

  BROWNSTOWN, IN (March 23, 2024) - After 10 years of trying to make it to Brownstown Speedway Victory Lane, Devin Moran was finally able to breakthrough - winning the 27th Annual Indiana Icebreaker on Saturday night at the Jackson County Fairgrounds quarter-mile oval. With the win, Moran becomes the tenth different winner in the last 10 series races. The fans saw six lead changes among three drivers during the 50-lap race. Bobby Pierce, who led the most laps, with 19, finished second followed by Mike Marlar, Max Blair, and Ricky Thornton Jr. Brandon Sheppard took the lead at the start of the race as the Illini driver was looking for his third straight win in the event. Sheppard led the first 14 laps until Moran, who started from the pole, seized the top spot. His lead lasted just one lap before Pierce, who started fifth, took his first lead of the race. But like Moran, Pierce's turn as the race leader lasted one lap and Sheppard moved back to the point. Sheppard led the next four circuits until Moran regained the lead with 21 laps complete. A back-and-forth battle ensued between Moran and Pierce as Pierce claimed the top spot for the second time in the race on lap 23. Pierce appeared to seize control of the race through heavy traffic as he was trying to extend his lead, but Moran and Marlar were quickly closing ground on the former Jackson 100 winner. Moran was able to grab the lead from Pierce right before the final caution flag of the race flew with 13 laps to go. Moran led the final 13 circuits, but Pierce tried several different lines to retake the lead in the closing stages. However, Moran held on for his first ever win at Brownstown by just 0.532 seconds over Pierce. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane, for the first time in 2024, Moran breathed a sigh of relief for finally getting the monkey off his back at Brownstown. "It's about time man. I love coming to this place, Jim Price [Brownstown promoter] does a great job with the track. It's a great track, it has awesome fans, you have awesome support in the pits. I have been waiting for about 10 years to come do this. I have always run good here. I know it's cold out here, but I was sweating bullets out there. When I moved to the top, I could make hay in three and four. After that last caution I was just trying hang on to the end." Pierce, who won twice last year at Brownstown, came close to going back to Victory Lane. "That was an awesome race tonight. I didn't really expect the track to be that good. I didn't expect him [Moran] to roll the top like he did. It was a fun race and we're glad to finish second tonight." Marlar, who captured the C.J. Rayburn Memorial race last September was one of the fastest cars on the track during the mid-part of the race. "Me and Devin were on harder tires than Sheppy and Bobby and I was like we just need to race here without any cautions. The track was unbelievable again; it's always awesome here. It was a fun night." The winner's Roger Sellers-owned, Double Down Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Lazydays RV, Big River Steel, C&W Trucking, Bilstein Shocks, McHugh Chrysler Dodge, Jeep, and Ram, CarSource, Haulin Haskell's, Red Oak Pub, and Smoky Mountain Speedway.

  Lucas Oil Speedway Preseason Spotlight: Late Model veteran Walkenhorst ready for 25th year in sport

  WHEATLAND, MO. (March 19, 2024) - Joe Walkenhorst will mark a quarter-century driving a race car in 2024 when the Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Model season fires up at Lucas Oil Speedway. All but one of those years spent driving a Late Model. The feeling of wheeling the high-powered car around the dirt is an experience like no other, the 56-year-old resident of nearby Elkton said. "Late Models, just the feel of them, when they're really hooked up they feel like they're gonna throw you out the right side of the seat," Walkenhorst said of the appeal. "They are just so quick and fun." Walkenhorst will be looking to build off a strong 2023 season when action in the Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series begins next month. He finished fourth in points a year ago with nine top-five finishes in 17 events, though most of his best runs came in the first half of the season. "Then I don't know what happened, but something went away on the car," Walkenhorst said. "I don't know if it was a shock or the rear-end. We ended up rebuilding the front end, the rear end, the middle, went through all the shocks. Finally, the last race of the year, we got it to come back. "All in all it was decent. Not what we were shooting for, but we got some pretty stiff competition there, too." Walkenhorst, a native of Lee's Summit, began racing in 1999 driving a Super Stock at Central Missouri Speedway in Warrensburg. He grew up going to the races to watch his dad, Ed Walkenhorst, drive a Late Model at I-70 Speedway in Odesssa. "I had to wait until I could afford to race," Walkenhorst said. "That's the biggest obstacle we had to overcome to go racing. But I started racing at Warrensburg in the Super Stock, which was basically a Late Model with a Stock stub, back in the day, and we had success from the git-go. We won four or five races the first year and the next year went to Super Late Models. That was quite a learning curve." Walkenhorst has raced nearly ever year since, though not always with a full schedule due to other commitments. He moved to Elkton, six miles south of Wheatland, a few years ago after his parents retired and bought a place there. "My dad decided that living in the city wasn't where he needed to be," Joe Walkenhorst said. "He found a farm in Elkton, just six miles south of the track. I bought three aces right next to them and built a house. I'm an only child and decided I needed to be close to them when they got to the age where they needed help." The only downside is a 230-mile round trip drive each workday to his job in Kansas City. That's why Walkenhorst said it's important to have good help in preparing his car, during the week and on race nights. Tony Allen, a former crewman for national-touring drivers Jason Papich and Earl Pearson Jr., has helped him the last couple of years. Garrett Eth has come on board to help daily maintenance and prep tires. Daughter Mariah Walkenhorst has been another mainstay in helping with crew duties. "Tony Allen has been with me last couple of years," Walkenhorst said. "He got tired of going on the road. We've been friends for a while and I told him, 'if you want come wrench for me on Saturday nights I'll buy you a pit pass and a hot dog and you can still get your racing fix and don't have to travel.' He's been great helping me set up the car and make the right adjustments. "Garrett Eth is a young kid wanting to learn and I'm getting him started on tires. It's a huge help for me. During the week I'm pretty much by myself and I'm on the road four hours a day. It helps to have a young buck to help out." Walkenhorst said his goals for this season are simple as he plans to race at Lucas Oil Speedway weekly. With the class under POWRi sanction, he also plans to hit some races at the track where he started, in Warrensburg. "I definitely want to get a win, if not multiple wins, and beat Justin," Walkenhorst said of Justin Wells, who dominated at the track last season. Joe drives a Black Diamond chassis that he bought from Wells a few years ago. "We're good friends and I take my whoppings accordingly," Walkenhorst said of Wells. "He's real good people." The Big Adventure Weekly Racing Series Weekly Opener is set for April 20th with all four divisions in action. The season-opening 3rd annual Easter Bowl Enduro 150 is set for April 6. Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Models plus POWRi Midwest Mods and POWRi Pure Stocks will be in action that night.

Legend cars have been added to the program on the first night to join the MLRA, Show-Me Vintage Racers and POWRi Super Stocks. Classes for night two will be MLRA, SMVR and POWRi Super Stocks.

  Lucas Oil Speedway Preseason Spotlight: Scheffler looks for continued improvement in his second USRA Modified season

  WHEATLAND, MO. (March 6, 2024) - Greg Scheffler is keeping his goals simple heading into a new season of the Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds at Lucas Oil Speedway. "Just do better than I did last year and try to get better finishes," said Scheffler, who finished a solid fourth last season in the Modified division, his first in that class after stepping up from B-Mods. Scheffler, from Pittsburg, Mo., wound up with four top-10 finishes in 14 features in 2023. It's telling that all four of those top-10s came in the second half of the season, which shows that he was settling into the class. "That was the first year I've been in an A Mod, so it didn't go too bad," Scheffler said, noting that horsepower was the biggest adjustment he had to make. "You can turn the car with the motor instead of having to keep your momentum up," Scheffler added. "I got better as the season went on. It was just a big learning curve. The rear suspension is a lot different than in a B Mod." Scheffler, 51, started racing back in 1992 as a 19-year-old in his native Nebraska. His dad raced on local tracks for 12-15 years before that and was a big influence on Gregg's career. "He helped me a lot with everything," Scheffler said. "Fabrication, welding, stuff like that where you could keep the car going and build stuff instead of having to buy it all the time. Scheffler drove a Bomber or Pure Stock for several years and won a points championship in the Bomber division in 1999 at Boone County Speedway in Albion, Neb. He moved into Street Stocks after the championship, but soon after took several years off from the sport to raise a family. After moving to Missouri a few years ago, he got back into the sport with wife Sandra playing a huge role. "My wife, she's into it as much as I am," Scheffler said. "My wife tries to learn everything about it. She's out in the shop as much as I am or more." They've been preparing the GRT-chassic for the upcoming season, which is fast approaching. Team sponsors include Eagle Machine, Jeff Knight 129th Missouri state representative, Performance Boat Center, Steve Scott Concrete, Cedar Furniture Lodge, Schuetz Construction, A&B Enterprise and BSB Manufacturing.

  Lucas Oil Speedway Preseason Spotlight: 'Most Popular Driver' Franklin eager for more success

  WHEATLAND, MO. (Feb. 29, 2024) - Mitchell Franklin's long-sought first feature victory at Lucas Oil Speedway last June drew a loud ovation from the fans. It was a sign of things to come for the 25-year-old Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod driver from Camdenton. Following the Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series season, Franklin was voted by the fans as the speedway's Most Popular Driver for the first time. He was humbled by the honor. "I know I have a bunch of fans because they always come and talk to me," Franklin said earlier this week. "But I was watching the video from the night I won. You can see the front stretch fans stand up and they're all hootin' and hollerin' for me. "It's a very humbling feeling when you see that. It makes you feel like you're doing something right. They're what keeps this sport going, so we need to make sure we take care of them." Franklin is eager to run it back in 2024 and see if he can win a few more features and build an even larger fan base. He's looking to debut a new Josh Franklin Motorsports car early in the season with plans to race most weeks at Lucas Oil Speedway while branching out and traveling to some big-money races around the Midwest. "We'll probably have to start out in our old car," Mitchell Franklin said. "We've got a new one built and we've got the tub in it, but can't really afford to (finish) putting it together until I sell my old car. If it doesn't sell before the season, I'll start with my old car. "He's keeping busy," Mitchell said of his dad's business, which builds Modifieds and Stock Cars. "I just hope we can continue our success this year and sell him some more cars." There was a lot of conversation after his first feature win whether Mitchell or Josh was more excited. "I was pretty excited, but I think he probably got more glory from that than I did," Mitchell said. "I was out front, minding my own race but dad was watching and felt the real suspense. My job was just to hit my marks, but he was able to see the cars behind me closing. "I rolled off turn two on the final lap and I saw him doing dang near cartwheels. It was probably about equal, but it was a great feeling for sure." With six top-five finishes in 12 Lucas Oil Speedway events, Mitchell Franklin continued his climb in 2023 as one of the area's rising B-Mod stars. He cemented his status with a final-night feature win at the USRA Nationals worth $2,000. Franklin said the win was nice, but wasn't as sweet as it should have been because it came after apparent winner JC Morton was disqualified in post-race tech inspection. That didn't diminish the strong run by Franklin, who started 21st in the main event. "We did start 21st and were able to pass 20 of the fastest cars around," Franklin said. "JC unfortunately had some difficulty in the tech shed. No one wants to win one that way. We were willing to take it just because of the prestige that race has and where we started. "We're kind of, I say a low-buck team. We don't have the funds some other teams have and we do it all ourselves. It was a huge win for us, really. But you want to jump around and scream, hoot and holler and stuff. You have to have respect for the other guy. He was on the highest of highs and it got taken away. We kept it low-key and celebrate among ourselves and didn't make too much of it. "We're gonna go try to win it straight-up this year," Franklin said, adding that he can't wait to get the new car to the track. "My car is a little older than the guys who are having success right now. I'd like to get on an even playing field with them and share notes and see if we can make this one just as fast as the one I've got," he said. Team sponsors include KennyCarroll Excavating, Icon Graphics and Apparel, Urbane Wire, J&S Custom Cabinets, Meek's, Ellis Coatings, Duke's Auto Body, Franklin Motorsports, MoBell Audio, Whitman Trucking, Whitetail Trophy Hunt, CPD Shocks, KS Engineering and Ray's Lake Service.

  Marlar Gets First Lucas Oil Win of the Season in Golden Isles Deuces Wild Finale

  WAYNESVILLE, Ga. (February 24, 2024) - Mike Marlar picked up his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win of the season on Saturday night at Golden Isles Speedway. Marlar earned $20,000 out of the $80,000 feature purse to become the ninth different winner in the 13 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events of 2024. Marlar led 48 of the 50 laps to earn his 22nd career win with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series. The only other drivers to lead laps during the main event were Brandon Sheppard and Chris Madden who finished second and third to round out the Big River Steel Podium. Brandon Overton was fourth with Jonathan Davenport rounding out the top five drivers. "It was no walk in the park, there was a whole lot more to it than that. These guys are really tough, Shep [Sheppard] about had me passed at one end I guess, and I was lucky to get back by him. These are some of the best racers I feel like with the stiffest competition there are down here. I am happy to win against them that's for sure," said the Winfield, Tennessee native. There was track prep work done before the feature after a caution-free High Limit Sprint Car feature won by Jacob Allen. Marlar was asked about how it changed his strategy for the feature. "It will mess with you a little bit you know, you made your changes, and you really don't know what the track will do. I am glad they worked on it because it really needed it. I was just confident in my set-up. I kind of stayed where I planned on being before the track prep and it worked out really good. Winning a race at this level is basically a night of all good decisions on the track and off the track." Sheppard, who won his first heat race during Speedweeks earlier in the night battled with Marlar as the two went back-and-forth just past the halfway mark as Sheppard was credited with leading lap 28 before Marlar seized control of the top spot a lap later. "It was a really fun race," said the defending Dirt Track World Championship winner afterwards. "It's been an up-and-down Speedweeks for us for sure. We haven't been able to race towards the front a whole race like that you know we've had to pass a bunch of cars during Speedweeks because we haven't qualified good. Tonight, I feel like we turned that around. We won our first heat race of Speedweeks, so that's really good. We qualified good and I think we ended Speedweeks on a really good note. We really wanted to win this one really bad, this place has been good to me over the years, but I have never got a win here." Madden, who ran second to Ricky Thornton Jr. in one of the two Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events at Golden Isles back in January took home the spot after leading the opening lap of the feature before yielding to Marlar on lap two. "Mikey's [Marlar] raced a lot on this type of surface and Brandon's [Sheppard] been in the South a lot since he's been on the road starting back in the day when he raced for Mark Richards. He's raced here as much as I have. All-in-all we had a good night, we were just way too tight in the first 10 or 15 laps or so. I think we fell back to like fifth and then we come back up through there. We were just extremely tight to start with and we just couldn't get it done there the first few laps." The winner's Greg Bruening, Skyline Motorsports-owned, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Truck Country, Mesilla Valley Transportation, Olson Explosives, Capital Signs, Bilstein Shocks, Petroff Towing, Bruening Rock Products, Brown's Heavy Equipment, and Can Am Auto Salvage.

  Tyler Erb Returns to Victory Lane at East Bay

  TAMPA, Fla. (February 7, 2024) - Tyler Erb earned a hard-fought victory on Wednesday night during the 48th Annual Wieland Winternationals - Presented by Lucas Oil at East Bay Raceway Park. Erb pulled away from a trio of cars who were battling for second to take a 2.653 second advantage at the finish line for his 21st career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. Mike Marlar, who started 23rd edged out Davenport at the finish line for second to earn the Todd Steel Buildings Hard Charger of the Race. Davenport rounded out the Big River Steel Podium finishing third. Daulton Wilson and Dennis Erb Jr. completed the top five drivers. The action was fast and furious in the first 20 laps of the 40-lap main event as Davenport led the first 11 circuits until Erb rolled around him on the outside to take the lead on lap 12. Erb, Davenport, and Daulton Wilson were battling nearly 3-wide for the lead as Wilson took his only lead of the race on lap 20. Davenport then came back to hold the point until Erb powered by him on lap 26. From there, Erb stormed away to pick up a convincing victory. Erb in taking his fifth career East Bay victory fought back after a disappointing race on Tuesday night where he finished sixth after leading in the early part of the race. "I think just racing a little smarter today. I chased JD [Davenport] and was really patient and finally got by him. On the restart they obviously started running the top or something to get such a really good run. I just had to hunker down and fight back. I have got an awesome car and an awesome group of people helping me. I love East Bay it produces some of the greatest racing and it was a really good race." "I can't believe JD left the top open down there in one and two," said the New Waverly, Texas driver who became the fourth different winner this year on the tour. "His [Davenport's] car was really good. That was fun, that's East Bay that's how it's supposed to be where you can run all over the place. Honestly the first 20 laps I never really spun my tires, so I knew I had a lot left in the tank. I just had to find the right place on the racetrack to use it." Marlar had the drive of the night coming from the inside of the last row to nip Davenport at the line to finish in second. "We have just been struggling the whole trip. We kind of figured out we had a bent rear end in the car. I was kind of bad early in the night, but I got it going for the feature. I want to thank Greg Bruening for giving me this opportunity. I hope we put on a good show there. There at the end I got to rolling the top. They knew I was coming." Davenport finished third for the second night in a row. "The lane moved several times there. My guys gave me the best car they could. Congratulations to Tyler [Erb] and Mikey [Marlar]. The last second, I heard him [Marlar], so I turned to the left so hopefully that helped us both in these heat races coming up, so we don't have a lot to fix." The winner's Best Performance Motorsports, Rocket Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Bulk Material Lift, Anthony's Pizza, First Class Septic, Base Fuels, Keyser Manufacturing, Roberts Bee Company, Integra Racing Shocks, JRR Trucking, and Sani-Weld. Completing the top ten were Jimmy Owens, Tim McCreadie, Brian Shirley, Kyle Bronson, and Garrett Smith.

  O'Neal Takes Wieland Winternationals Opener at East Bay

  TAMPA, Fla. (February 6, 2024) - Hudson O'Neal won the opening round of the 48th Annual Wieland Winternationals - Presented by Lucas Oil on Tuesday night at East Bay Raceway Park. O'Neal picked up right where he left off, ending last year's Winternationals at East Bay winning the Thursday and Friday night programs as Saturday's finale was rained out. O'Neal battled with Tyler Erb for the first 10 laps of the race until taking the lead for good on lap 11. Daulton Wilson tracked down O'Neal on occasion, but never got the opportunity to pass O'Neal as O'Neal raced through traffic towards the end of the race to score his 27th career win on the tour. Wilson finished second followed by Jonathan Davenport, Ashton Winger, and the Todd Steel Buildings Hard Charger of Race, Devin Moran who came from the 18th starting spot to round out the top five drivers. O'Neal went to Lucas Oil Victory for the fifth time ever at East Bay and for the third time this year with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series. "It looked like they shoved those tires in three and four a little bit. I knew that if I could just stay patient enough eventually that top was going to go away. Tyler [Erb] went down there in front of me one time and it came down to a crucial pass coming off of two he just missed the bottom a little bit and let me sneak in. We rubbed some doors, but I knew that was probably going to be the only chance I had to get back by him. We had a little different tire on I feel like that the rest of the field, but it ended up working out." Wilson finished second for the ninth time in his career in Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series competition. "The racetrack was pretty bottom dominant and starting sixth I knew we had to get to the front quickly. It was a great night for us, we had good speed and moved moved forward tonight. We brought home everything in one piece. Since we went to this new car it's really easy to drive. I feel like I can go wherever I want to. Hats off to my guys for building a great race car." Davenport who came into the final Winternationals at East Bay with eight career wins at the "Clay by the Bay" rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "I would have bet this thing would had rubbered in no time and it never did for sure. I don't know why it didn't. We went a little harder on tire. I lost my grandpa today. He was probably one of the pioneers of the sport that nobody knows about. He probably owned a car for 40 or 50 years. We hate that we lost him but he lived a great life, he was 94 years old. We was hoping we could win one for him and hopefully tomorrow night we can do that."

  Lucas Oil Speedway Preseason Spotlight: Allison ready for busier Late Model season

  WHEATLAND, MO. (Feb. 6, 2024) - After one of the most-consistent seasons of any Lucas Oil Speedway driver, in any of the four Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series divisions, Bryon Allison is ready for even bigger things in 2024. Allison wound up second in the Hermitage Lumber Late Model class last season, 104.5 points behind track champion Justin Wells. While Allison did not win a feature, the veteran driver from Marshall posted 11 top-five finishes in 14 points races at Lucas Oil Speedway. "It was good," Allison said of his season. "We haven't got to race a lot over the last few years and the technology has changed quite a bit with the springs and stuff. We've been trying to get back up to speed with all of that stuff and as the year went on, we got consistently faster. The end of the year wound up really well. We'll just keep working on things." This year, Allison is excited about the opportunity to expand his role for the Moon Brothers Racing team out of Sedalia. Along the Black Diamond that Allison is set to drive in the Hermitage Lumber POWRi Late Models division, the team has added a newer Rocket chassis for Allison to do some open Late Model racing in Lucas Oil MLRA and Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events visiting Wheatland. "Any time you get back into an open car, it's a lot of fun," said Allison, who has some past experience racing in the MLRA series. "It's exciting to get to race against some of the big teams. It's gonna be a fun year. Hopefully everything works out." Allison started his racing career in 1993 at Sedalia in the Street Stock division and after a couple of years moved into Super Stocks and began winning races. "Then I moved into Late Models and ran at Sedalia quite often and also ran at Wheatland Raceway, before it was Lucas Oil Speedway," Allison said. "For a few years we ran some MLRA stuff and finished top 10 in the MLRA several years ago. We've primarily just been running Late Models ever since." Allison ran the full season in 2023, racing 23 times overall after entering only 13 races combined the previous six seasons. The runner-up finish to Wells was an impressive season, all things considered. "Justin's tough," Allison said. "I've raced against him years ago in MLRA. He's smooth and he's good. Just a tough competitor. I like racing against him. He'll make you a better racer. He makes you think. You're gonna have to get up on the wheel to beat that guy." This winter has been spent preparing the cars, including getting a Durham Race Engines motor refreshed. Andy Durham, like Allison is a Marshall native. Durham is now based in North Carolina and has gone on to become one of the nation's top motor builders. "I've known Andy since he was a young kid," Allison said. "His family still lives here in Marshall. I talk to his dad and brother quite regularly and I've known Andy since way before he got started building engines. Everybody around here is proud of him. He's done a tremendous job for a kid building motors in a single garage to where he is now." Allison said another exciting thing in the season ahead is the racing debut of his 7-year-old grandson, Jackson Burton, who is going to start racing micro-sprints. "My wife is gonna have to split time between our racing and our grandson's," Bryon said. "This will be his first year and we're really excited about that."

  McCreadie Breaks Through for First Lucas Oil Win of 2024 at All-Tech

  LAKE CITY, Fla. (February 3, 2024) - Tim McCreadie completed a perfect night of racing on Saturday night at All-Tech Raceway. The two-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion set the overall fastest time in qualifying, won his heat race, and then led all 50 laps to earn the $15,000 victory in the main event. McCreadie was able to hold off his only challenger, Daulton Wilson to become the third different winner this season. Wilson finished second with Ryan Gustin rounding out the Big River Steel Podium in third. The remainder of the top five finishers were Tyler Bruening and Clay Harris. McCreadie bolted to the lead at the start of the race from his outside front row starting spot. Wilson, who started on the pole moved into second on the opening lap. McCreadie and Wilson pulled away from the field opening a huge margin over the rest of their competitors. Wilson started to surge closer to McCreadie before the only caution of the race came for a slowing Mike Marlar with 26 laps complete. On the restart McCreadie set sail widening the gap between himself and Wilson, but when McCreadie caught the tail end of the field Wilson again pulled close. As the two battled through traffic, Wilson pulled within two car lengths. However, as McCreadie worked his way through traffic, Wilson fell several car lengths back in the final 10 circuits. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 37th time in his career, McCreadie was all smiles after his dominating performance. "It's just a pleasure to be out here with these guys. You take it for granted and 20 years fly by just like that. I am just happy to get to do it and I want to thank Donald and Gena Bradsher for giving me great equipment. Scott Fegter, my crew chief, built this car at Wesley Page's. It's amazing to drive a car like this that does what you want it to do. It maneuvers great so hopefully it's just the beginning, because it used to be that I just couldn't drive much anymore and now I am feeling pretty saucy out here in the rough stuff." "I thought I had better not move off the cushion. It was just so sticky all night and I honestly just eased getting into one and backed my car up a little bit through the hole a little better. I always feel like somebody is always behind me the whole race. I always give 100% all of the time out there," said the winner, as he moved into sixth place in the championship points heading to East Bay. Wilson, who closed the gap twice on McCreadie during the race came up just short of his first ever Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. "I had just got to Timmy there when the caution came out and then I thought lapped traffic was going to help me out and there at the end I was with Timmy and the lapped car was racing us pretty hard. Maybe we'll get one next week at East Bay. We just need to keep building as the night progresses. We've got speed early in the night and the last couple of nights we have been able to maintain and go forward." Gustin, who posted his best finish with the series this year, rounded out the podium in third after starting 15th. "To be honest with you I didn't realize we were up that far until they called me to the droop check. It was elbows up style tonight, so it was usually what we run good on. I knew it was time to get up on the wheel and that's what we did. I wish we would have seen a caution there at the end because I think we had something for them." The winner's Paylor Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Mega Plumbing HVAC, Baker Mitchell Company Inc., Armslist.com, Bilstein Shocks, Brad Benton Trucking, Inc., Wesley Page Racing, and Mark 4. Completing the top ten were Ashton Winger, Kyle Bronson, Brandon Sheppard, Dennis Erb Jr., and Devin Moran.

  Thornton Earns Third Victory of 2024 at All-Tech

  LAKE CITY, Fla. (February 2, 2024) - The final summary of Friday night's Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series event at All-Tech Raceway will show that Ricky Thornton Jr. led all 50 laps. However, it ended up being a hard-earned $12,000 victory as the Martinsville, Indiana resident fought off several challengers for his third series win of 2024. At least five different drivers held the second spot during the race, but Thornton who got the win at All- Tech a year ago during the Winter Nationals held them all off for the win. Devin Moran finished in second followed by Hudson O'Neal, Tyler Bruening, and Jimmy Owens. Bruening captured the Todd Steel Buildings Hard Charger of the Race after gaining 13 positions. Thornton and Owens started from the front row as those two ran first and second for the first four laps of the race until O'Neal, who started sixth, got by Owens to take second. The first caution of the race flew with 13 laps scored for last year's O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year, Max Blair who slowed coming off of turn two. When the race went green again Joseph Joiner started to make moves as the Florida native, who started fifth moved into the second spot to challenge Thornton for the race lead, twice Thornton and Joiner crossed the loop almost dead even as Thornton was hanging onto the top spot. By lap 20 O'Neal had moved back into second moving Joiner to third. Moran, who started fourth then got going climbing to second on lap 27. Moran and O'Neal then dueled it out for second and third, but the car on the move was Garrett Alberson. The former Rookie of the Year vaulted from fourth to second in the span of a lap. Alberson then started to close on Thornton as the race for the lead was starting to heat up again, but Alberson's night ended as he got into the turn two concrete with 41 laps complete. The final caution appeared with 47 laps complete with Thornton leading Moran, O'Neal, and Owens. On the restart Thornton pulled away from Moran to take the win by 1.178 seconds. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 31st time in his career, Thornton breathed a sigh of relief that the race was over. "Man, I didn't know if I needed to go around the top or the bottom. You could look on the scoreboard and you could see guys moving and then going back. So, I figured the line had to be moving around quite a bit. I had restarted every other time around the bottom, and I didn't want to take off and hit the fence. It worked out for us. I think at one point down the backstraightaway he [Joiner] cleared me. He got down there, and I felt like I was running as hard, but still trying to save my right rear tire. I actually found a pretty good line around one and two. I split two lapped cars and I felt like I got a really good run, so I kept that in the back of my mind to do that again because it was a line nobody else was running." Moran, who was runner-up in last year's championship standings came home in second after getting close to Thornton on a few occasions. "They figured out a way to give a good track to run on for the feature. I know it's a little later, but it ended up being a really good race. I love racing in Florida and everybody knows that. Thanks to all of the fans for coming out tonight." O'Neal, the defending series champion rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "I just got lost a little bit on the racetrack there about three-quarters of the way through and let Devin get back by me and Alberson as well. I had a couple fall out which helped me get back to the podium. We were able to get to second early on. This place just changes so fast, you are up, down, up, down I swear I changed my line 15 times throughout the race."
