(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 25, 2025 - A night that started with promise ended prematurely with more motor woes for Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team at the Road America Challenge Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series event at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, June 21.

The fifth-year Sprint Car competitor fired off the evening with a solid seventh-place effort in the 25-car qualifying field with a lap of 12.158 seconds.

Following a fourth-place finish in the first eight-lap IRA heat race, Hartmann earned his third IRA dash appearance of the 2025 campaign. After rolling off third in the first dash, Hartmann placed fifth to earn the 10th starting spot in the 30-lap IRA headliner.

However, Hartmann's A-main run proved to be short lived as he dropped out of the race on lap 3 with motor issues. He received credit for a 25th-place finish.

In a season-plagued by engine problems, Hartmann will veer off the IRA tour this weekend in favor of a different destination.

"It's just been one of those years with all of the motor problems," Hartmann said. "We have a fresh bullet going in for the doubleheader coming up this weekend with the Outlaws at Cedar Lake."

The team is now set to head to Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wis. for a two-night stand with the NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series on Friday, June 27 and Saturday, June 28.

Hot laps start at 6:30 with qualifying and racing to follow.

Both nights will be streamed live at dirtvision.com.
