- Boyles, Kreisel capture Hockett-McMillin Memorial wins at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (Sept. 19, 2025) - One night after rain scrubbed the opener of the 15th annual Jesse Hockett-Daniel McMillin Memorial at Lucas Oil Speedway, sprint-car action roared to life on Friday. Clinton Boyles rolled to victory in the POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint portion of the program with Riley Kreisel prevailing in the POWRi WAR main event. Action concludes on Saturday with another complete program including qualifying, heat races, semi-features and championship features. The Hockett-McMillin Memorial recognizes the legacy of Jesse Hockett, from Warsaw, Mo., who was a star in both the winged and non-wing sprint divisions when he lost his life in a shop accident in 2010. His cousin and crew chief, Daniel McMillin, was killed in an automobile accident in 2006. Both of Friday night's feature winners had connections to Hockett. Boyles goes wire to wire: Boyles of Greenwood, Mo., captured his first career POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint victory and he did it by leading every lap, beating Ayrton Gennetten for the $5,000 prize. "It's pretty phenomenal and I don't really know what to say right now," said Boyles, who started on the pole, grabbed command at the start and withstood multiple cautions to earn his trip to victory lane. Boyles called it a "full-circle" moment as his sprint car career began driving the No. 77 non-winged owned by Jack Hockett, Jesse's dad. "It all started with the 77 in my sprint-car career and I've had a lot of ups and downs since then as far as driving and wrenching and all that," Boyles said. "To be in this moment, right now, I can't even describe it. There are so many friends and family here. That's what makes it special. "Glory to God. We couldn't do it without our faith in Him. This is pretty cool." The race had a rough start, with three cautions before three laps were complete. Boyles started on the pole and led the first two laps and once action settled into a green-flag rhythm, he was nearly one second in front of Gennetten by lap eight. Another caution bunched the field at that point, just as the leaders caught lapped traffic. Just one lap after the restart, the fifth caution appeared with Boyles and Gennetten still running 1-2, Jake Bubak having moved into third and Kyle Bellm in fourth. With the final 16 laps going caution-free, Boyles made the most to make it a wire-to-wire triumph. Gennetten closed in by lap 19, but Boyles quickly re-opened a one-second gap and brought it to the finish .449 seconds clear of Gennetten. "That's a tough race right there with Ayrton. I'm sure he was right behind me," Boyles said. "I had no brakes and couldn't stop. I was hanging on for dear life the whole time and didn't want to see lapped traffic. Just a chaotic 25 laps there." Gennetten, of Versailles, said the winner did a better job of conversing his right rear tire. "We melted our tire off a little more and in looking at his tire, his tire is in a lot better shape than ours," Gennetten said. "I was pacing him pretty good. We had a yellow and a yellow and a yellow and a yellow. Overall, it was a pretty solid night points wise." Bubak came home third with Bellm fourth and Landon Crawley fifth. Kreisel takes WAR win: Riley Kreisel of Warsaw earned his 12th career POWRi WAR Sprint feature win, taking over the lead on lap 19 and holding it from there. He beat J.J. Yeley in the 25-lapper for wingless sprints by two seconds for the $2,000 prize. Kreisel, who started third, took over after a restart and never gave it up. He marveled at how good it felt to win a feature in a race that honors one of his racing heroes from the same hometown. "Unreal. We've never had speed here, period," Kreisel said. "We built this thing about two weeks ago. This was our first night in it. It's phenomenal to drive. It's incredible to have speed here for this race. I just want to win this thing." Fourth-starting Ricky Lewis slid around the outside of first-lap leader Lewis out of turn four to complete lap two. Lewis forged a 1.2-second lead over Kobe Simpson by lap seven when the event's first caution flew as third-running Xavier Doney spun and came to a stop in turn two. Kreisel moved to second on the restart as Simpson slipped back two spots. Lewis and Kreisel dueled for the lead over the next few laps, but Lewis was able to hold off the charge. Kreisel didn't go away, sticking within a half-second of the lead by lap 15. Landon Simon spun on lap 18 to bring out the caution, as Lewis was holding a .301-second advantage over Kreisel with J.J. Yeley running third. The restart saw Kreisel take over the lead on lap 19, sailing around Lewis on the outside. "Ricky's cagey. He has a lot of laps this year and I don't," Kreisel. "When I get by him, I have to be ready to go. I felt like the race car was coming to me a little more, but it wasn't quite 100 percent yet. I didn't want to get out in front of him and not have that to feel like I could get away from him. You think he's giving 110 (percent) but he might be giving 95 to wait for you to get by and run you back down." The new leader was off and running, opening a 1.5-second margin before another caution slowed the action on lap 21 as Lewis came to a stop in turn two after apparently making contact with another car on the front stretch. Kreisel had a smooth restart and took it home from there, beating Yeley by two seconds at the checkers. "Luckily we got rained out yesterday because we've been having so many problems with this car," Yeley said. "Everything is brand new. I didn't get to take a lap qualifying. The car felt like it had nice balance and and I got up to fourth pretty quick, then the brake pedal stuck to the floor. That last 20 laps, with zero brakes, it was interesting." Jack Wagner, who started 11th, charged to third with Kyle Shipley fourth and 14th-starting Wesley Smith taking fifth. Pit gates open at 4 p.m. Saturday with hot laps at 6:30 and racing to follow.

- Rahmer Wins First Of Year At Williams Grove In Race Of Season - Norris gets fourth win in 358 sprints
Mechanicsburg - Freddie Rahmer claimed the race of the season to date at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night, holding off Lance Dewease and Daryn Pittman for the $6,000 win in the Kevin Gobrecht Classic Challenge for 410 sprint cars. The win was the defending track champion's first oval victory of the year. In the 358 sprint main, Dylan Norris charged forward from the sixth row to win his fourth race of the season at Williams Grove. Kody Hartlaub charged from the pole into the lead in the 25-lap 410 sprint feature ahead of Rahmer and hit the rear of the field on the seventh tour. And while Hartlaub was able to outdistance Rahmer on clear track, traffic proved to be a different story as Rahmer was able to drive down the leader's advantage by the halfway point. But at the same time sixth starter Lance Dewease was challenging Rahmer for second as the pair was catching the leader. Rahmer took his first jab at the lead on the 14th lap when he got by Hartlaub deep in the third turn only to see the East Berlin pilot turn his car off of the cushion and reclaim the spot at the line. And by that time, Dewease was all over the pair as the leaders zigzagged and darted through traffic. With six laps to go it was still any of the trios race to claim and with five to go both Rahmer and Dewease had swallowed up Hartlaub to be first and second. Dewease then went for the lead while fifth starter Daryn Pittman surged into the top three. Dewease was scored the leader with four laps to go by .001 seconds, an advantage not visible to the naked eye. Rahmer then snapped back into control as the pair raced into the first corner. Pittman then threatened to take second away as Dewease worked on the leader all the way to the finish, coming up short by .250 seconds. Pittman was just .635 seconds behind the leader, finishing third. Troy Wagaman Jr. rode home fourth followed by Hartlaub who had faltering brakes. Sixth through 10th went to Brock Zearfoss, Cameron Smith, Danny Dietrich, Justin Whittall and Tyler Ross. Heats went to TJ Stutts, Hartlaub and Wagaman Jr. Pittman set fast time with a lap of 16.623 seconds. Andy Best led the first 12 laps of the 20-lap 358 sprint main before 12th starter Dylan Norris of Hanover drove by for the lead and win. Norris motored into second on lap eight and then consistently took six and seven-tenths of a second off of Best's advantage each lap before seemingly effortlessly driving by for control. The victory was the eighth of the point leader's career at Williams Grove Speedway. Nash Ely took second from Best on a lap 18 restart but couldn't challenge Norris for the win. Best was third followed by James Roselli and Ayden Hare. Sixth through 10th went to Seth Schnoke, Eli Tuckey, Steve Wilbur, Hunter Fulton and Cody Fletcher. Heats went to Chad Criswell, Best and Roselli. Feature Finishes 9/19/25 410 sprint cars, 25 laps: 1. Freddie Rahmer, 2. Lance Dewease, 3. Daryn Pittman, 4. Troy Wagaman Jr., 5. Kody Hartlaub, 6.

- Moran Earns First Career Win at Knoxville in Friday Preliminary
KNOXVILLE, IA (September 19, 2025) - Devin Moran took the lead from Brandon Overton on lap 17 and then pulled away to win the Friday night portion of the 21st Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals presented by All Makes Collision Center. Moran, who started fourth, earned $10,000 for his first career win at Knoxville. Overton finished in second, followed by Jonathan Davenport, Bobby Pierce, and Garrett Alberson. Overton bolted to the lead at the start of the race, which had only one caution flag. Overton maintained the lead until Moran, who had been challenging Overton from the first lap, made his move exiting turn two on the 17th lap to take the lead. Moran went on to win by 0.517 seconds at the finish after splitting a pair of cars in traffic to secure the victory. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 23rd time in his career, the Dresden, Ohio native became the 52nd different Late Model winner in Knoxville Raceway history. "Winning at one of the greatest dirt tracks in the world is something to be proud of, whether it's a preliminary night or not, you know. I haven't been here very often, but every time we come, I feel like we have speed. We just discovered a couple of things, and we were really good all night. The air is so crucial for us because the track is so flat, and we can't carve like a sprint car. We can't come right up on that cushion; it's really challenging to do. They made some adjustments to the bottom of one and two, and I just hit that moisture patch there. I kept working on him (Overton), and finally, it paid off." Overton, who led the first 16 laps of the race, stayed in second the rest of the race to hold off Davenport. "Sometimes it's better to be second than to lead, so when I got behind him (Moran), I started to follow him. He was carrying way more speed. I was trying to stay wider to avoid sliding over the cushion, and he was just going so much faster, especially when entering one. But it is what it is. After the heat race, I felt really bad, but Burroughs and the team did a great job making it at least competitive, so we'll have a shot at it tomorrow. I believe our car is just as good as anyone here." Davenport, who finished third at the Knoxville Late Model Nationals in 2022, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium. "My car felt pretty good out there, but like anybody here, the closer I got to them, the worse I felt. Once we hit lapped traffic, I fell back a little, and I feel like I passed them both at one point during the last couple of laps, so that's something we can be proud of. At the start of the race, Devin was really fast; he was running a bit lower, so he was blocking my air, and I couldn't get lower than him. We were definitely a lot better tonight than last night. Hats off to the track crew; they did an awesome job today. They had a lot of wet clay to work around, but they handled it excellently. Hopefully, the track will be somewhat like that tomorrow."

- Alberson Wins Late Model Knoxville Nationals Opener
KNOXVILLE, IA (September 18, 2025) - Garrett Alberson led all 19 laps of the rain-shortened Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing event on Thursday night at Knoxville Raceway. It was the opening night of a three-race weekend for the 21st Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals Presented by All Makes Collision Center. Tyler Erb finished in second, followed by Daulton Wilson, Ricky Thornton Jr., and Jonathan Davenport. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the fourth time in 2025 and for the first time ever at Knoxville, the Las Cruces, New Mexico native earned $10,000 for the win. "This is huge, especially for Ken and Beth. They have been coming here for so long, and this is an Iowa deal. It means a lot to get this red car into victory lane here in Knoxville. First off, I hope everybody involved in those wrecks is okay. It was a weird race; the restarts were really hard to judge. I didn't feel like I could accelerate very well - my gearing felt a little bit off. It's so tough to judge if you're doing the right thing with your speed because you could be in the correct lane, but if you don't do it just right, you lose so much speed. I was just trying to keep my speed up and hit the lanes." Erb, who swept two preliminaries in 2021 at Knoxville, came from the 10th starting spot to finish second to Alberson. "By making a lot of laps here, you're not going to pass them on the outside when the cushion is that low. I had a couple of restarts that worked out once I finally got past Joiner, and then I was kind of biding my time, not trying to hurt myself there, just had two or three restarts. The one I got by Perm and Sheppy was pretty good; we made 19 of 25, and Garrett did a good job. Everything played out well." Wilson, in his first Lucas Oil race since Port Royal in August, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "Running third feels good. We definitely need to work on our race cars a bit, but with the setup we have for tonight's race, we'll take it. The biggest thing is trying to stay out of air on those restarts; my car wouldn't take off on those starts at all, so I know I was holding up the whole field. Like I said, we made the most of it, and luckily, we ended up here."
