- Great Lakes Super Sprints Ready for International Affairs Friday & Saturday in Ontario, CAN
Merrill, MI - The Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP (GLSS) are prepared for an international showdown this weekend as the best of the GLSS head to Ohsweken Speedway on Friday night and Buxton Speedway on Saturday night to take on Ontario, Canada's best. The new American Racer tire for GLSS this season may be the variable needed to bring an end to the Canadian's reign on their home soil. The first GLSS events in Ontario came in 2024 with a Thursday and Friday doubleheader at Ohsweken Speedway. The races were co-sanctioned with the Southern Ontario Sprints and Ohsweken Speedway weekly divisions. Dylan Westbrook handled business both nights in Ohsweken before the Tour moved to Buxton Speedway on Saturday night. Darren Dryden started on the pole and held off challenges from Ryan Turner and DJ Christie for the win. Last year, Dryden overcame a start violation on the opening green flag to go to Victory Lane for the second time with GLSS and his first career win at Ohsweken Speedway. The next night at Buxton Speedway, DJ Christie punched his ticket to the winner's club with GLSS. The Ontario regulars have had their home turf locked down in recent years, but things could equalize as GLSS brings in a few weeks of familiarity on the new American Racers. Coming into the weekend, the best finishes among GLSS regulars have been around fifth. Last year, 2018 Tour Champion, Dustin Daggett, finished fourth at Buxton Speedway a night after finishing sixth at Ohsweken. In 2024, Max Stambaugh carried the GLSS banner, finishing seventh and 11th at Ohsweken before finishing fifth at Buxton to close out the weekend. This year, to balance the Canadian's familiarity with the tracks, the GLSS teams' familiarity with the American Racer tire may level the playing field. Teams have had 10 races on the MC3 right-rear and the SD38 left rear. In those 10 races that the American Racer has been legal, eight different drivers have gone to victory lane, with only Zane DeVault capturing multiple wins this season. The international affair for GLSS begins Friday, June 26th at Ohsweken Speedway. General Admission gates open at 6:00 PM with racing at 7:30 PM. On Saturday at Buxton Speedway, racing is set to begin at 7:00 PM. Fans who can't make the trip can catch the action all weekend long on GreatLakesSprints.TV.

- Brody Roa Scores Convincing Win in USAC/CRA Main Event at Perris Auto Speedway
Cypress, CA — June 23, 2026 — Despite making only his second sprint car start in seven months, Brody Roa delivered a runaway victory in the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series main event at Perris Auto Speedway last Saturday night. The win came one month after Roa finished second in the 73rd Salute to Indy in his first sprint car race of 2026. On Saturday, the 2023 USAC/CRA Series champion was impressive right out of the box. His lap of 17.081 was the fastest in the field during hot laps. In Woodland Auto Display Qualifying, his time of 16.984 made him one of only three drivers to qualify in the 16s on the night. And it was the second fastest time overall. For his eight-lap heat race, the Garden Grove, California, driver started sixth and charged to a second-place finish. That performance placed him on the inside of the third row in the 30-lap main event. Once the main began, Roa — aka "The Pride of Garden Grove" — immediately began slicing and dicing his way toward the front of the pack. By the end of lap eight, he had taken the lead and rim road his way from the field. His biggest challenge came soon afterward when he encountered lapped traffic. Masterfully working his way through the lappers, Roa was nearly a full straightaway ahead of the second-place car when the Chris Fulton checkered flag brought the race to an end. He had lapped all the way through the seventh-place car. "I know it was probably not much for the excitement factor, but I will take it any time," Roa laughed about his runaway win. "There was quite a bit of lapped traffic. I only had one little bit of a hairy moment going into turn one. I got up to a lapper, and he had been running the bottom the whole time. He just kind of floated up on the entry into one to run the top. It got a little tight, but I was able to turn down and keep on trucking." "I love it when it is like that," Roa commented on the track. "Slick to right on the wall. There really wasn't much of a curb to lean on. It was kind of technical on the fence, so it was kind of easy to blow through it. I like that style, too. On the fence with it technical, hit your marks type stuff is what I really like. It kind of slows everything down, and you have to be precise with it rather than just be hammer down." "It was a pretty smooth night as far as the pits go. Just normal adjustments, no corrections. Changed a gear before the feature. That is a good problem to have. It could easily go the other way real quick. We are thankful for nights like that where we can just roll it in the trailer. It makes it nice between the races. You can do the standard maintenance, look everything over, put some fresh grease on what needs it, wipe down what needs it and check nuts and bolts and be ready for the next one." That next one will come when Roa returns to action with the USAC/CRA Series at Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday, July 11. The following marketing partners have backed Roa for the 2026 campaign. ALR Virtual Services, Biker Bruce, Caltrol, Innovative Sewer Scope and Plumbing, Big Chino Ranch, Molecule, Shaver Racing Engines, Barnes Pumps, and Specialized Coatings.

- Justyn Cox claims 2nd career SCCT win on Saturday at Watsonville Speedway
Watsonville, CA…Not many drivers have been more consistent when it comes to Winged 360 Sprint Car racing over the last year than Justyn Cox in the Golden State of California. Going into Saturday at Watsonville Speedway, it had been over four years since he tasted victory lane with the Elk Grove Sprint Car Challenge Tour. The Clarksburg racer put it all together at the 66th Johnny Key Classic however and raced to his second career SCCT victory during the event. Cox took the lead at the waving of the green flag of the 30-lap Shop Kyle Larson feature and held command until young Landon Henry slid to the front on lap seven. Cox returned the favor shortly after though and dominated the remaining distance to score victory. Henry crossed the stripe in second to record his best career SCCT finish, with two-time Watsonville Speedway champ Caleb Debem in third. Marysville's Dawson Hammes came home in fourth with Livermore's Travis Labat in fifth. Completing the top 10 were Pit Stop USA/ Taco Bravo Hard Charger Carson Hammes, fast qualifier Jake Haulot, Jake Morgan, Jason Chisum and Adrianna DeMartni. Stockton's Caden Sarale dominated the BCRA/WMR Midget Super Series event over Logan Mitchell, Matt Streeter, Brody Petrie and Nicholas Leonard. The West Coast Pro Stocks saw Frank Nyback get his first career victory over Richard Brace Jr, Nick Silva, Rob Gilbertson and Brent Lawrence.

- McDowell Scores Popular Victory in Mountain Moonshine Classic at Smoky Mountain
MARYVILLE, TN (June 20, 2026) - Dale McDowell led all 60 laps of the Mountain Moonshine Classic on Saturday night at Smoky Mountain Speedway, earning a popular hometown victory and collecting $30,000 for his 11th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. The victory was McDowell's first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph triumph since winning the Topless 100 in 2023 and his first Series victory at Smoky Mountain Speedway since 2016. Devin Moran charged from seventh to finish second after passing Friday night winner Brandon Sheppard on lap 45. Moran closed the gap in the closing laps but crossed the finish line 1.113 seconds behind McDowell. Sheppard rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third after finishing second for the first 44 laps of the race. Jake O'Neil recorded the best Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series finish of his career with a fourth-place effort after running inside the top five throughout the event. Chris Madden completed the top five. With his third-place finish, Sheppard trimmed Hudson O'Neal's championship lead to just 20 points heading into next weekend's event at Lernerville Speedway. McDowell's victory was his 13th overall win at Smoky Mountain Speedway since 2008 and came in front of a home-state crowd. "I anticipated that second start and wasn't sure where the grip was going to be," McDowell said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "Things just kind of fell our way. The car was really good, and the guys have worked hard on it. I've given them some feedback, and sometimes it's probably wrong, but they keep working at it." "It was an awesome night to win close to home. Like Kyle Busch said, you never know when the last one is going to be, so I'm sure glad to get one here. Shane made a few changes from Friday night, and the car was balanced really well. I was able to pick my way through traffic and guide it where I needed to go." Moran made a late charge after overtaking Sheppard but couldn't quite reel in the veteran leader. "Dale McDowell is Dale McDowell for a reason," Moran said. "I'm ready for him to retire. When he got to traffic, I felt like I had a really good run. I was pushing hard and probably overheated the right rear tire trying to get there. Once I got to him and slid it, that pretty much hurt my chances. Still, coming from seventh to finish second isn't bad." Sheppard believed the race was decided in the opening laps. "The initial start is what lost the race for us," Sheppard said. "I saw Dale rolling a little bit and was waiting to go, but I got lifted from behind and couldn't launch like I needed to. Once he got out front, we were hoping traffic or a restart would give us an opportunity. I had a good restart and got by Madden, but on the next one I got too close to Dale entering turn one, lost the air on the nose, and Devin got by me." McDowell's winning Shane McDowell Racing Team Zero Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and backed by Reece Monument Company, Remtek Enterprises, Otterly Baths, AAA General Contracting, Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging, Klotz Synthetic Lubricants, Mark IV, M&S Motors, Jason Wright Excavating, Black Rock Enterprises, BSI Well Service, Northeastern Fabrication, and Campbell Insulation. Completing the top ten were Carson Ferguson, Max Blair, Kyle Bronson, Sam Seawright, and Dillon McCowan.

- Pursley earns first Late Model win to highlight Challenge Cup Round 2 at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (June 20, 2026) - Dayton Pursley overcame nerves and pressure from a pair of challengers to earn his first Late Model victory on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. The 23-year-old from Hermitage held off Kaeden Cornell and JC Morton to prevail in the Hermitage Lumber Late Models for a $1,000 pay day in Round 2 of the Pitts Hmes and Realty Challenge Cup. A total of 117 cars checked into the pits and other feature winners included Wyatt Gaggero (Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds), Jon Sheets (Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods), Mason Beck (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars) and Blaine Ewing (Hickamo Super Stocks). Pursley, who's driven Modifieds and B Mods at Lucas Oil Speedway during his young career, and also dabbled in sprint cars, was ecstatic in victory lane. He grew up coming to the track watching his dad, Jason Pursley, race Modifieds. "First of all I have to say thank you God for even letting me be here and do this," Pursley said. "But it does feel good. I'd like to say happy birthday to my mom and happy Father's Day to my dad and all the other fathers. "I don't even know what to say. I was so nervous. I had to go (to the bathroom) before (the race) and I didn't even go. I was too nervous. I want to thank my wife for being here. I don't know, just everybody who helps me." Pursley started on the pole and opened a half-second lead over Cornell by lap 10. The second half of the race saw Cornell move to the high groove in turns three and four and the low side in one and two in an effort to chase down the leader. Meanwhile, Morton advanced into third with those three well ahead of the field. As Cornell and Morton battled it out over the final laps, Pursley was able to take it to the checkers for a .457-second win over Cornell. Morton wound up third with Tucker Cox fourth and Cole Henson fifth. The Challenge Cup events pay extra money with $1,000 going to the winners in the USRA Modifieds and Late Models, and $750 to win the other three classes. Gaggero prevails in Modifieds: Eighth-starting Wyatt Gaggero took command after a caution midway through the Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modified feature and drove away from there for his first win of the season. Gaggero, from Wichita, Kan., beat Henry Chambers by more than three seconds to pick up the $1,000 victory. Chase Sigg led the opening lap before Chambers took the top spot on lap two. Chambers opened a three-second lead over Gaggero before a lap-nine caution wiped away that margin. The yellow was exactly what Gaggero needed, as he took the lead on the restart. Gaggero dominated form there and wound up prevailing by 3.4 seconds over Chambers by the finish. Sigg was third with Paden Phillips fourth and Cole Campbell fifth. Sheets takes B-Mod victory: Jon Sheets' flag-to-flag victory in the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod feature saw him beat J.T. Carroll by just over a half-second. It was Sheets' second feature win of the season at Lucas Oil Speedway. Sheets, of Nevada, grabbed the lead at the start after a melee before an official lap could be completed saw several cars either eliminated or head ot the pits. He opened a 1.5-second margin over Morton by the halfway point on lap 10 with 12th-starting J.T. Carroll into third and Kris Jackson, who started 14th, into fourth. Morton rolled to a stop atop turn two on lap 11 to bring out a caution and put an end his chances. Sheets maintained his lead as the race remained caution-free the rest of the way and held off Carroll by .602 seconds. "I guess on that start I was moving pretty well and I saw carnage everywhere," Sheets said. "It was a long race. The race track was good, maybe a little bit top-dominant but the track must have been pretty good as the 66 (Ryan Gillmore) went to the tail and raced back up to third." Gillmore was third with Jackson fourth and Cayden Stacye fifth. Ewing wins Super Stocks thriller: Blaine Ewing of Green Ridge, Mo., made the sixth and final lead change the winner, coming out of the final turn, beating teammate Terry Schultz for the Hickamo Super Stock feature. It appeared that Schultz would pick up the win before Ewing ran him down in sight of the finish line. Ewing's margin at the checkers was .228 seconds in his first Lucas Oil Speedway win of 2026. "Honestly I didn't even see the white flag," Ewing said. "It just worked out for us. That's our other team car. I know it real well and it's fast. This place has been kryptonite for me these last couple of years, but I think we're finally starting to get it figured out." Pole starter and first-lap leader Mike Striegel saw his car lose power entering turn three on lap two. Fortunately, all the cars closing in navigated around him. Ewing led a lap after the restart before Johnny Fennewald took command on lap three. Ewing regained the lead on lap eight, passing Fennewald coming off turn two. But it was Schultz who wrested second from Fennewald on lap 11 before passing Ewing for the top spot the next time around. Ewing worked last-lap magic by using a lapped car as pick in the final turn, passing Schultz for the victory. Fennewald finished third with Aaron Poe fourth and Jacob Rexing fifth. Beck takes Stock Cars feature: Mason Beck of Urbana captured his first victory of the season, leading wire-to-wire in the 20-lap O'Reilly USRA Stock cars feature. Beck started on the pole and set the pace from the start with Jayden Bears of Kansas City giving chase. Those two separated from the field by lap five right before a trio of cautions slowed the action. Bears pulled alongside Beck on lap 12, but was unable to nudge into the lead. The two remained in a tight battle as caution flew on lap 17, just after Beck led by a few inches at the start-finish line. The three-lap shootout to the finish saw Beck hang on to beat William Garner by .816 seconds with Dawson Fennewald third, Darrell Hurt fourth and Bryan White fifth. "After I rolled this thing at (USRA) Nationals last year I haven't felt comfortable in the car and honestly about halfway through the race, I didn't feel comfortable again. It just won't do what I want," Beck said. "In a stacked field like we've got, everybody in here, you can't count out."
