- Josh Rice Scores Biggest Win of His Career with First North/South 100 Title
WALTON, KY (August 8, 2026) - Josh Rice finally sealed the deal Saturday night, capturing the biggest win of his career at his home track with a victory in the 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North/South 100 Presented by Lucas Oil at Florence Speedway. Rice earned a career-high $75,000 before a packed grandstand. Rice and Jonathan Davenport endured a wild, lead-swapping duel, with Rice leading the final two laps to earn the victory at the track where he began his career in an open-wheel modified. Luke Morey, making his first North-South 100 start, finished third, followed by Devin Moran and Brandon Overton. Dan Ebert took the lead at the start and paced the first seven laps before Davenport took over the top spot. On a lap 11 restart, Ebert's driveline broke, causing him to slow coming off turn four and triggering a 15-car pileup. The incident eliminated LOLMDS championship points leader Brandon Sheppard and Bobby Pierce, who was seeking his fourth consecutive North-South 100 victory. After a lengthy cleanup, Davenport maintained the lead until lap 25, when Kyle Bronson took over the top spot. Bronson and Davenport were battling for the race lead when the two made contact coming off turn two, sending Davenport spinning into the inside berm. Bronson then led until lap 62, when Devin Moran took over. Moran held the lead until Davenport, who had pitted for repairs following the lap 51 incident, charged back to the front. Davenport's lead was short-lived, as Moran regained the top spot on lap 85. Davenport answered immediately, passing Moran to retake the lead on lap 86. Davenport held the lead until Rice charged from fourth and caught him as the duo raced to the white flag. Rice took the lead off turn four, then lost it between turns three and four after getting into the wall on the final lap. He drove back underneath Davenport to take the checkered flag. In Wieland Victory Lane for the fifth time in his career, the current O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie-of-the-Year points leader reflected on the victory. "I am a frickin' North-South 100 winner. We put on four different tires, wrecked three different times and we had a Daytona 500 crash on the front stretch. It worked out and I didn't even know I had a left front. I had about six pep talks when I pitted. I am speechless. What just happened? I can't thank my dad and mom enough for everything. We have made a mess of this race so many times. I just can't thank my sponsors enough throughout the years, and just everybody who stuck by me. All of my guys, all of my family and friends are here. It's incredible," said the Crittenden, Kentucky, racer, who is in his first full season of national touring racing. "Man, I just kept getting crowded off the corners. When you slide those guys, it's either hit 'em down the straightaway or slide them to let them know you are coming. Man, I'd get runs on those guys and I'd have to calm myself down. My car was not good, but when I hit it right, my car was really good. I just tried to stay focused, and I don't know how clean some of those sliders were on JD. I felt like I owed him one, and I got it back down in three. He apologized afterwards. I think a lot of JD. We've had a lot of good racing here recently," said the 28-year-old racer. Rice explained what went through his mind during the frenetic final laps of the race. "You have no idea how hard it is to be, like, the fans are paying attention. They're just crazy. When I slid him (Davenport) down here, I got all crossed up on the cushion and I cut down on him, and I probably figured he was aggravated about that. All the way down the back chute, I didn't know what to do, whether to slide myself, and I started to think about last night and how out of control I was getting to it. So I guess I will just enter it and prepare to cross, and my right-rear tire hit the cushion just perfectly and it launched me. I knew it was over before it was over, and I'm like, this is perfect. Got the best run that I could ever imagine." Davenport, who was seeking his third career North/South 100 victory, finished second, 0.574 seconds behind Rice. "I can't remember everything that happened. We took off pretty good there. I just hated it for all the guys that got taken out there in that wreck. It definitely changed the complexion of the race. The first time me and Josh got together, I really thought I left him just enough room and he jumped my right front. It was just a racing deal, and I knew he would probably be mad. I was coming back through there after I pitted. I started picking them off. I never could really run the cushion; I got to bouncing a couple of times. I just progressed back up through there and got by Josh again. I thought I was going to be okay, and I got by Devin (Moran) and I got a little excited. I guess we started to really roll through the middle, and I could catch the brown in three and four pretty good. I couldn't circle there and leave pretty good." Morey, who before this weekend had raced only once at Florence in his career, made his first North-South 100 start and rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third after starting 19th. "Yeah, that was crazy. It was the first North-South for me. I had only been here one other time. I am telling you, it was crazy watching Rice and them go after it and the fans freaking out. I would have been thankful to battle for 20th. I never thought we'd be here standing on the frontstretch afterwards."

- Brandon Davis completes USMTS Show-Me Shootout sweep at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (Aug. 8, 2026) - Brandon Davis completed a memorable weekend by completing a sweep Saturday night at the 17th annual Summit USMTS Slick Mist Show-Me Shootout Presented by Foley Equipment. Davis, of Hayfield, Minn., took the lead away from Tanner Mullens on lap 30 and went on to win $5,000 prizes on back-to-back nghts at Lucas Oil Speedway. Moreover, it was Davis' fifth straight USMTS victory. "Heck no. I've never gotten five of these in one season," Davis said of his streak in victory lane. "I haven't raced with them as much, but these guys are good. This car is just really good right now." Other feature winners on the program were Robbe Ewing (Hermitage Lumber Late Models), Jon Sheets (Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods) and Rodney Schweizer (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars). Davis started seventh and gradually worked his way toward the front as Mullens, of Wichita, Kan., set the pace. Mullens built the lead to 1.6 seconds by lap eight with Davis rallying into third by lap 17, three seconds behind the leader. Davis got around Stevens for second two laps later and began to slice into Mullens' margin. Mullens led Davis by 1.8 seconds at the halfway mark in a race that had remained caution-free. Davis continued to quickly gain and was within .420 seconds as caution flew on lap 25 for Gary Christian's spin. Wolff was running third with Jim Chisholm fourth and Stevens fifth. The restart saw Mullens retain the lead, but another caution appeared on lap 27 for 24th-running Ryan Murphy's spin in turn two. Wolff and Davis swapped second the next couple of leaps. Then it was Davis' turn to take his first lead, sliding around Mullens out of turn four on lap 30. That would be the winning move en route to his 16th career USMTS triumph. "Tanner was kind of moving around and defending and I thought I might catch him sleeping on the outside," Davis said. "I actually ended up getting on the bottom and then doing the slider. This thing is so good. It's crazy. "I came here here a couple of different times for some big shows and thought I was never going to get the job done. To get it done against these guys it's just surreal." Davis said his pursuit of a USMTS championship will continue with one car and one motor, plus a borrowed truck and hauler from a lifelong friend. "I don't know if I sealed my tire up or what," Mullen said. "But I don't think it would have mattered. He's a lot better than us right now. We just have to work on it and get better." Before he could clear to a lead of any margin, caution appeared again on lap 31, leading Davis nine laps to hold off Mullens, Wolff and fourth-place Rodney Sanders. With three cars battling for second after the restart, Davis quickly opened a 1.7-second lead - but that's when another caution slowed the field with five laps remaining. The additional restart didn't matter as Davis cruised once action resumed, beating Mullens by about 10 car lengths. Sanders finished third with Chisholm fourth and Jake Timm fifth after starting 22nd. "We're steady," Sanders said of his finish. "Congrats to Brandon. He's really good right now." There were 45 USMTS cars on hand for the second straight night. Nic Bidinger set fast qualifying time in Group A at 16.628 seconds with Tyler Wolff pacing Group B at 16.721. Ewing wires Late Model field: Robbe Ewing of Stockton led all 20 laps, but had to withstand a restart midway through the event, to earn the Hermitage Lumber Late Model feature. It was Ewing's second feature win of the season as he cut into division points leader JC Morton at the top of the standings. Ewing started on the pole and led the way, opening a half-second margin over Cole Henson when caution flew on lap nine. After action resumed, Ewing cleared away to a 1.2-second leader over Henson with Kaeden Cornell another second behind on lap 15. Ewing took it home from there, finishing two seconds in front of Henson with Cornell coming home in third. "I didn't know where anybody was at," Ewing said of his competitors. "I kept seeing some noses down here but just tried to stay as smooth and as clean as I could. The track crew did another great job tonight." Tyler went from ninth to fourth and Dustin Atkinson wound up fifth after starting 14th. B-Mod sweep completed by Sheets: Jon Sheets of Nevada, completed a Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod two-night sweep, leading all 20 laps for his fifth victory at the track this season and 10th win overall. "It's never easy," Sheets said. "We were lucky to get the lead early. Track position was a key tonight. We weren't uber good down through one and two, but three and four was so technical that you had to keep your car straight and catch that moisture on the way off. "I had one goal tonight and that was not make our guys work so. We had both ends knocked off last night I don't think anything tonight, so that's always a good night." Sheets rolled from the start by had a 1.1-second lead over Cayden Stacye midway through the 20-lapper. In a race without a caution after a lone yellow after lap one, Sheets prevailed by one second. Tyler Potter was third with Mike Striegel fourth and Colson Kirk fifth. Schweizer wins Stock Cars feature: Rodney Schweizer of Kansas City, Kan., took the lead on lap four and rolled to the O'Reilly's USRA Stocks cars victory, beating Friday night winner Jaylen Wettengel by 3.2 seconds. The fifth-starting Wettengel fell back to seventh early before rolling back into contention, taking over second by lap 10. While he was second-best this time, he was no match for Schweizer who found Lucas Oil Speedway victory lane for the first time this season. "He;'s always good here," Schweizer said of Wettengel. "(Johnny) Fennewad is good here. There's a lot of good drivers here and we're just fortunate that we came out on top tonight." Jayden Bears was third with Johnny Fennewald fourth and William Garner fifth.

- Mintz rebounds for Fremont 410 win; Sebetto nabs 6th 305 victory; Golembiewski tames trucks
FREMONT, Ohio - A few weeks ago Craig Mintz destroyed a car at Fremont Speedway Fueled by the FriendShip Kitchen. His team went to work and built a new car and it paid off Saturday, Aug. 8 on Fremont Federal Credit Union/S&S Hauling and Excavating Night. Mintz, a four time Fort Ball Pizza Palace 410 Sprint Fremont track champion, took the lead on lap 21 from DJ Foos who had led form the drop of the green in the 30-lap affair. Foos didn't give up, racing side by side with Mintz for the next hand full of laps. Mintz was able to weave through lapped traffic to earn his 20th career victory at "The Track That Action Built." His brother-in-law Nate Dussel charged from 16th to finish second with Foos, Cap Henry and Bryce Lucius rounding out the top five. Henry's fourth place finish expands his lead in the All Pro Aluminum Cylinder Heads/Kistler Racing Products Attica Fremont Championship Series presented by the Baumann Auto Group. Henry is trying to secure his third straight and fifth series title. "This says a lot about my guys, Chris, my dad, Heather, Cruz, Chase….busted their butts to get us a race car together. Paul Kistler rebuilt us an engine so we came here with a fresh race car and fresh bullet but we didn't know what to do and what the car was going to do. It was pretty good tonight," said Mintz beside his Real Geese Decoys, Gill Construction, Grant Decker Construction, Bettsville American Legion, KS Sales and Service, Linder's Speed Equipment backed #09. Foos led the first 11 laps of the 25-lap Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprint A-main before sixth starter Bryan Sebetto took over in heavy lapped traffic. Sebetto drove away for his sixth win of the season at Fremont and his 10th overall of 2026. Foos, Steve Rando, Seth Schneider and Jamie Miller rounded out the top five. Sebetto's 34th career win at Fremont puts him into a tie for 15th on the all-time win list with hall of famer Al Franks. The win also boosts his lead in the Real Geese Decoys/Real Capz Attica Fremont Championship Series. "Nights like tonight it's not about horse power it's about getting the car locked down on the track. We tried another shock deal with Berryman Racing Shocks and it was flawless. We made some last minute changes right before I got into the car…further than we've ever went and it paid off. About the third lap in I trunked the wing and said just forget about the wing and just run the car. I could run top, middle or bottom. The car was perfect," said Sebetto beside his Coastal Cabinet and Flooring, Fremont Fence, Shelluke's Bar, Level Performance, Level Utilities, Nagy Equipment, Dockside Barbershop, Riehl Custom Fabrication, Cutting Edge Counter Tops, Schade Builder Supply, BSE Fabrication, Overwatch Precision, BRS, Race Ready Apparel, Recker Team Howard Hanna Real Estate backed #8. Toledo, Ohio's Dave "Gumby" Golembiewski took the lead from Kent Brewer on lap six and then battled with five time and defending track champion Shawn Valenti the last seven laps of the 20 lap Burmeister Trophy Dirt Truck feature to secure his sixth career Fremont win. Valenti, Dustin Keegan, Keith Sorg and Steve Miller rounded out the top five in a very entertaining race. "Jamie Miller drove this thing to a win and now I got one. Ron Miller builds one hell of a truck," said Golembiewski. Fremont Speedway Fueled by the FriendShip Kitchen will be back in action Monday, Aug. 24 with the 305 Sprints and a special school bus race on the racing card to kick off the Sandusky County Fair.

- Plymouth Powerhouse DeVault Passes Stambaugh with Two to Go for Fourth GLSS Triumph of 2026
Lake Odessa, MI - He may not be a full-timer, but when Zane DeVault rolls into an event with the Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP, it's well known throughout the pits that he'll be one to battle for the win by the end of the night. That held true on Friday at I-96 Speedway during the Duel on Dirt. With 24 cars on the property, GLSS and I-96 Speedway officials made the decision to start all the cars in the 25-lap main event. Zane DeVault and Max Stambaugh led the field to the green flag. DeVault struggled on the start falling back to sixth by the time the field got to turn three. Stambaugh opened the race as the early leader over Van Gurley, Jr and Chase Ridenour Through the opening green flag run, DeVault methodically began charging his way back to the front, climbing back into the top five, then took third from Dustin Daggett just before the halfway mark. With 11 laps to go the first caution of the night flew when Brad Lamberson slowed down the backstretch with an apparent engine failure. On the restart, Stambaugh maintained his lead, but DeVault stayed pesky right behind him. It was clear that Stambaugh's car was rolling better through turns one and two, and DeVault's car was better in three and four. With five laps to go, the lead pair made their way back into lapped traffic. DeVault made a mistake on the cushion in the center of one and two, allowing Stambaugh to open his gap. With two laps to go, DeVault had made his way back to the tail tank of Stambaugh on the exit of turn four and committed to a slider line in one and two. The move was tight, and Stambaugh was forced to let DeVault in. DeVault blocked the crossover at the exit of turn two as the pair nearly made contact. DeVault came around to take the white flag and grabbed his fourth win of the 2026 season. Stambaugh held on for second ahead of Dustin Daggett, who stayed close to the battle for the lead. Darren Dryden got credit for fourth and Boston Mead was credited with fifth. The next event for the Great Lakes Super Sprints is Saturday, August 8th at Silver Bullet Speedway in Owendale, Michigan. Fans who can't make the trip can catch the action live on GreatLakesSprints.TV. Chase Dunham was the Operating Engineers 324 Hard Charger advancing 11 spots.

- Overton and Rice Score Dramatic Last-Lap Wins Friday Night at Florence
WALTON, KY (August 7, 2026) - Brandon Overton and Josh Rice used last-lap passes to win their respective 25-lap preliminary features for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series on Friday night at Florence Speedway. Overton's first series win since last May nearly slipped away when Mike Marlar got by him as they headed to the white flag. Overton fought back, storming past Marlar to regain the lead and taking the checkered flag by a scant 0.192 seconds. Hudson O'Neal finished third, with Jimmy Owens and Adam Stricker completing the top five in the first feature. Rice's win also featured a dramatic last-lap finish. He got by Bobby Pierce as the two took the white flag, making a daring move for the lead that paid off as he held off Pierce for the win. Zack Dohm was third, with Dan Ebert and Devin Moran rounding out the top five in the second 25-lap feature. In Wieland Victory Lane for the 20th time in his career, Overton, an Evans, Georgia, native who sits fourth in the championship standings, was relieved to finally claim his first series win in more than a year. "I said, oh no, not again. I was fine early on, and those guys got to racing behind, and all I can say is hats off to Josh King. I look forward to coming here every year, and this is why: you can race all over it. Obviously, it's hard to leave because you don't know where everybody else is. It's $6,000 to win and they're racing like it's the Daytona 500. I don't expect anything less. It was a fun race with Mikey, and man, they drive so hard, and we will take them any way we can. It was fun, but my heart did sink when Mikey came sliding by me. I was just doing the best I could. It may be just a prelim night, but it's a shot in the arm for us." Marlar, who won a preliminary feature on Thursday night, came close to becoming the first driver to win two races this week. "It was fun all the way around. I had a little bit of a messed-up tire deal there. We went and changed a tire and couldn't get the lug nut off of it, so I was struggling with my steering, but it's all right. It was a fun race, and I had a little bit of a cushion, so I could steer on that just fine. Probably the part that hurt me was the corner steering, and I didn't want to hit him (Overton) or something when I turned under him." O'Neal came from 11th to round out the Big River Steel Podium in third in the first feature. "I had the best seat in the house. These guys were going at it. I really thought I was in the best spot whenever they were going down into three, and Mikey had a small run. I thought he was going in there to slide him, and I was hoping they would rub a little bit and I would sneak in there and get one." The winner's Scott and Jason Riggs/Riggs Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by Clements Racing Engines and sponsored by Budweiser, Garnto Southern, Riggs Fiber, Muscle Factory, Harco Construction, Big Dog Stump and Tree, and R.W. Powell Construction. Completing the top 10 in the first feature were Carson Ferguson, Ricky Thornton Jr., Dillon McCowan, Shannon Babb, and Ryan Montgomery. In the second $6,000-to-win preliminary feature, current LOLMDS points leader Brandon Sheppard took the lead at the start over Bobby Pierce and held it until Pierce passed him for the top spot on lap 10. Rice then got by Sheppard for second. With three laps to go, Pierce, Rice, Sheppard, and Dohm were all battling for the lead when Sheppard suffered a flat tire, forcing him to make a pit stop. On the final restart, Pierce led the field to the white flag, but Rice threw a slider entering turn one to take the lead. He held his line into turn three and, despite banging the cushion hard in turn four, held on for the win. In Wieland Victory Lane for the second time this year and the fourth time in his career, the two-time Ralph Latham Memorial winner set his sights on his first Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100 win on Saturday night. "I know Bobby (Pierce) won three of these North-South races in a row, but this is Rice Brothers, y'all. I tried that slider line right before the caution, and I closed up probably six car lengths. I don't know if Bob (Pierce) told him that was good or not. He was messing my air really bad, and I finally just hit it right. I don't know how clean it was; it was time to throw it. Man, what a hot rod. I can't thank Mark Richards enough. It's crazy to come out here and be on the podium and then win the first weekend out. This place is so darn cool to run good at. I have won everything here except the Big One, and we will give it our best shot tomorrow night." Pierce, who will be looking for his fifth North-South 100 victory on Saturday night, led 14 laps and crossed the finish line 0.252 seconds behind Rice. "I felt like I didn't get great off of four, and then I went to protect the slider if someone was there in one, and then I hit that hole. But all in all, I think the track was really good. They gave us lots of room to race on and gave us a last-lap pass in both features, so it was a really good track. I think we made a lot of good gains with the car throughout the weekend so far. We've learned a lot more, and I think the more we can apply for tomorrow, the better." Dohm earned his first Big River Steel Podium finish of the year with the series, finishing a close third. "I thought I was sitting pretty. I knew what tires everybody had on, and it seems like those 3s fade after a caution. So I figured Josh would make a run on Bobby, and I was hoping they would get a little more aggressive. I thought even on that last lap Bobby was going to drive back up beside him and they both would go up the hill, but Josh had him cleared too much. Third is good. We have had just a terrible weekend. We had a transmission go out and a bent spindle when we hit the wall before qualifying yesterday, and it ruined my lap. But in the features, we have passed cars, and that's what it's all about." The winner's James Rattliff/JRR Motorsports Rocket Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and sponsored by Glenwood Electric, Rice Excavating and Plumbing, Chain Locker, Cheap Chevrolet, Sunoco Race Fuels, BC Fluid Power, MGL Auto Sales, Berea Collision, Lonkard Construction, JRR Trucking, JRR Motor Sales, Jessie Insurance Agency, Keltner Contracting, Big Al's Guns and Outdoor, and The KAG. Completing the top 10 in the second feature were Tyler Erb, Jason Jameson, Justin Rattliff, Kaede Loudy, and Max Blair.

- Brandon Davis uses late pass to win a thriller on Night 1 of Show-Me USMTS Shootout at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (Aug. 7, 2026) - Brandon Davis of Hayfield, Minn., made it four straight Summit United States Modified Touring Series wins, using a pass with two laps remaining to overtake race-long leader Jim Chisholm for a $5,000 payday Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Davis' Night 1 victory the 17th annual Slick Mist USMTS Shootout Presented by Foley Equipment was a thriller in which Chisholm, from Osage, Iowa, nearly took it wire-to-wire for 40 laps. "I just sent it in three and said I'm either going to hit the tack and take off or he's gonna pull away from me," Davis said of the decisive moment, with the white flag in sight. Other feature winners on the program were (JC Morton) Hermitage Lumber Late Models, (Jon Sheets) Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods and Jaylen Wettengel (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars). All four divisions will be back in action on Saturday night. Chisholm beat Rodney Sanders to the lead at the drop off the green and set the early pace. Chisholm built a five-car-length lead by lap eight over Sanderson with Brandon Davis settling into third and Tyler Davis fourth. The event's first caution appeared on lap 13 when Chase Sigg hit the wall in turn three. After the restart, Tyler Davis cruised into second behind Chisholm with Sanders in third. That's how it stayed until lap 23 when caution No. 2, for a multi-car spin in turn two, slowed the action. Chisholm's lead at the time was .569 seconds over Tyler Davis. Caution was out again two laps after the restart for debris as Chisholm led a 1.2-second lead over Brandon Davis. Chisholm's lead was down to a car length by lap 29 as Brandon Davis closed in from the inside line. Those two continued to run less than a half-second apart as the laps clicked by, Chisholm night on the track and Davis in the slow groove. Davis, 35, made a drive out of turn four to pull alongside the leader on lap 37, but was unable to inch past. After repeating the bid for several consecutive laps, Davis was able to made the decisive pass with a dive on lap 39 into turn three. "Jim knows where I am and he wasn't defending too much, so I just sent it into three," Brandon Davis said. Davis held on to take the win over Wolff by .283 seconds with Chisholm fading to third on the final lap. "Brandon Davis, I appreciate running him clean," Wolff said. "I messed up a few times as I'm sure I wasn't very good coming off bottom going to the top. We just stayed after it. We were close. I'm not gonna complain." Chisholm, 23, was philosophical about barely missing his fourth USMTS win of the season. "I've got to congratulate Brandon. He's the class of the field right now and it shows," Chisholm said. "I kind of expected him to slide himself and I felt we'd have a chance to do the same. Just misjudged the situation a little bit and came out third." Sanders was fourth and Tanner Mullens fifth. There were 45 Modifieds on hand for the USMTS portion. Jim Chisholm set fast qualifying time with a lap of 16.831 seconds. The Modifieds go after another $5,000-to-win in another 40-lapper on Saturday night. Morton rolls to Late Models win: Hermitage Lumber Late Model season points leader JC Morton led all but the opening lap in earning the 20-lap victory over Tyler Wolff. It was the second feature win of the season for Morton, from Springfield. "You started behind Wolff and Robbe Ewing, that's tough," Morton said. "Then me and Cole (Henson) had a slide job and I finally got clear of him. After that, I tried to hit my marks there and just focus on what I needed to do." After Wolff led the opening lap, Morton found momentum off turn four on lap two and shot to the lead over Cole Henson. A lap later, Wolff was back into second, but not before Morton had nearly a one-second lead. Morton, who started fourth, and Wolff had separated from the field by nearly three seconds when caution slowed the action on lap 11 when third-running Henson spun to a stop on the front straightaway. Morton retained the lead after the restart with Dayton Pursley falling in behind Wolff as the laps dwindled. Morton held on to take the win by 1.06 seconds over Wolff with Pursley third, Tucker Cox fourth and Kaeden Cornell fifth. "That dang yellow came out and I was cussing, but it's all good," Morton said. "It probably got me out of them lapped cars and calmed me down a little bit." Sheets rolls late in B Mods: Jon Sheets of Nevada took the lead on lap 14 and led the final seven circuits to beat JC Morton in the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod main event. Front-row starters Chad Clancy and Morton ran 1-2 from the start with fifth-starting Sheets climbing to third by lap eight. Sheets took over second on lap 13 and then. Went to the lead the next time around to complete lap 14. Sheets led by .597 seconds when the race's first caution flew with five to go. Fourth-running Cayden Stacye was unable to avoid hitting the lapped car that spun and the incident took Stacye out of contention for a top-five finish. Sheets jumped to the night groove and stayed there after the restart, rolling to a 2.2-second margin over Morton at the checkers. "It's always cool racing with Chad and JC and them guys. We've raced together for years," said Sheets, who noted that he was a bit worried after grazing a tractor tire in turn two. "The car got tight afterward. The car was still really good. It was really, really good before that." Clancy finished third with Ryan Gillmore fourth and Tyler Potter fifth. Stock Cars win to Wettengel: Eighth-starting Jaylen Wettengel of Topeka, Kan., took the lead with five laps to go and held on a frantic battle among multiple cars at the ront of the O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars feature. Wettengel took the lead from Garner on lap 15, coming out of turn four after Garner had led all but one of the first 14 laps. Schweizer took over second a lap later and was a half-second behind Wettengel when caution flew with two remaining. Wettengel was able to hold on to earn the victory, beating Schweizer by .352 seconds. "That was a blast," Wettengel said. "Multi-lane track, top to bottom. Even the USMTS feature was fun to watch. Hopefully that topped it. But it was fun. It was good, hard racing." Wiliam Garner was third with Mason Beck fourth and Grayson McKiney fifth.

- Sheppard and Marlar Take Thursday Night Florence Prelims
WALTON, KY (August 6, 2026) - Brandon Sheppard and Mike Marlar took top honors in Thursday night's dual 25-lap features for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series at Florence Speedway to kick off the 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North-South Weekend. In the first $6,000-to-win main event, Sheppard took the lead from Chris Ferguson on lap 13 and then pulled away for his ninth series win of the season. Garrett Alberson, who passed Ferguson for second on lap 14, then held off a charging Josh Rice for second over the final 10 laps of the race. Rice, the current O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year points leader, was debuting a new Rocket Chassis as he rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. Donald McIntosh, last year's O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year, was fourth, with Ferguson rounding out the top five. In Wieland Victory Lane for the 44th time in his career, the current championship points leader finally picked up his first win at Florence as he eyes the $75,000 top prize in Saturday night's 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100. "I am pretty sure this is my first Florence win. We have been really good in the big race on Saturday a few times. In 2016, I was there at the end and got a flat tire. It's been one of them places where things haven't went my way. I felt like we had a pretty decent car in the spring when we were here, so I was excited to come back, especially with as good as we have been running. My confidence is at an all-time high with this race car." Alberson fought off Rice in a great battle to snag the runner-up spot. "I knew once Josh (Rice) got to third, I was like, alright, we are going to have us a fight right there, you know, because I was a little too tight to really run that top the way I needed to. I kind of had to back it in there, but hats off to Josh. We had a good little race right there. It was a lot of fun, and Sheppy, his car was really good. It's super balanced right now." Rice, who entered the weekend having won 13 times at Florence since 2021, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third in front of his home-track fans. "That was fun racing with Garrett. I wanted to get to second for Mark (Richards). He worked a lot on my race car this week, and I can't thank him enough for that. It was just like home. It was typical Florence on the cushion. I was probably a little too tight for the cushion. I probably didn't have much for Shep, but congrats to those guys." The winner's Mark Richards Racing, Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and sponsored by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Ace Metal Works, Performance Grading, Franklin Enterprises, Sunoco Race Fuels, Gunter's Honey, Stiles Marine and Maintenance, Fox Shocks, and Collins Brothers Towing. Completing the top 10 in the first feature were Devin Moran, Clay Harris, Trevor Landrum, Bobby Pierce, and Shannon Babb. In the second $6,000-to-win main event, Marlar took the lead from Brandon Overton on lap 20 and held on the rest of the way for his first LOLMDS win of the year. Marlar, who started eighth, led Overton, Hudson O'Neal, Kyle Bronson, and Jonathan Davenport across the finish line for his 24th Lucas Oil win, tying him with Hall of Famer Billy Moyer. Ricky Thornton Jr. led the first eight laps of the 25-lap nightcap until he relinquished the lead to Overton on lap nine. Two laps later, Thornton brushed the wall in turn four, resulting in a right-rear flat tire as he slowed to bring out a caution flag. Overton, who was looking for his first series win since Circle City last year, was in front until Marlar got by him on lap 20 to take over the lead. Marlar then beat Overton to the finish line by 1.244 seconds in a highly competitive race. Marlar, like Sheppard, is looking for his first career Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100 victory on Saturday night. "I tried to be a little bit of everywhere. The track was just racy, you know. When you've got a great track like that, that's how you've got to be. There was a lot of thinking going on in that race and strategies on restarts and stuff like that. It was fun to race with the top guys up here and have a good time and get a win. My car was really good, so I was on offense. When you're on defense, you don't want to see those cautions, but when you are on offense, every caution is an opportunity. I want to really thank Mark Richards for his help on the car today. I kind of told him what I was looking for, and he helped me a little bit." Overton, who led the most laps (11) in the second feature, came home in second. "The other cars had me moving all over the racetrack, and I was kind of holding them off. They said Mikey had a 3 on, so I don't know if the softer tires, you know, played into it at the end on them restarts. I didn't feel bad. Honestly, I felt pretty good at the beginning. I know Ricky had a softer tire on earlier. He was doing what he does out front, and he got into the fence, and I don't know whether that cut his tire down or what. On those restarts, it was hard getting back into a rhythm, and it is what it is. We're alright." O'Neal, who started ninth, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "We worked, and I think we worked in the right direction, and we'll see tomorrow when we unload. We just found ourselves in really bad positions on those restarts. I felt like my race car was okay. I just jumped the cushion one time and made one mistake and let two or three cars get by me, and then I had to drive back through there to get to third."
