- Show-Me Off Road Shootout concludes Sunday at Lucas Oil Speedway after Beat, Mamer score Round 1 Pro truck wins
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 3, 2025) - The power of top-level truck racing returned to Lucas Oil Speedway on Saturday as the Show-Me Off Road Shootout opened the AMSOIL Champ Off Road Series season. Cole Mamer came away the Pro 4 winner, taking command just after the halfway point, with Ryan Beat leading all the way to earn the Pro 2 main event to headline Round 1 action. Racing is scheduled to resume on Sunday on the off road course with 13 sportsman divisions starting the program with 8:45 a.m. opening ceremonies. The seven pro divisions follow with their opening ceremonies at 2:30 p.m. Mamer, of Holtville, Calif., grabbed the lead from RJ Anderson four laps into the Pro 4 race after Anderson had paced the action from the start. Anderson regained the lead in the 4-wheel-drive division when Mamer slipped just before the halfway flags. But on the first lap after the restart, Mamer passed Anderson coming to the table-top on the back of the course. Mamer gradually pulled away from there and beat Anderson by just under one second. CJ Greaves finished third, 7.8 seconds behind the winner. "Man, it feels good," said Mamer, who won the season finale in Pro 4 last season. "It took us about three years to figure out this Pro 4 platform. I can't thank my guys enough. "Racing with RJ was a blast. I had a lot of trust in him sideways; he had a lot of trust in me sideways and I don't think we ever touched." Beat earns Pro 2 win: Beat, of Iron Station, N.C., drove away to a dominating victory in the Pro 2 trucks, emerging from an early battle with Ronnie Anderson to establish command. Beat emerged the leader after a hard-fought opening lap and was able to open a 1.8-second lead. Beat went on to lead Anderson by 3.8 seconds as action slowed for the halfway flags. The second half of the race also was all Beat. "We put in the work this offseason and I think it shows," Beat said, moving up to Pro 2 this season from Pro Lite, a division in which he had wins in the past when the Lucas Oil Off Road Series raced at Wheatland.

- Justin Sanders and Ryan Bernal snag wins on a wild Nor*Cal Posse Shootout opener
Placerville, CA…Justin Sanders started from the pole and led flag-to-flag for his 26th career Winged 360 Sprint Car triumph at Placerville Speedway during the Nor*Cal Posse Shootout opener. Sharing victory lane on Friday at the Nor*Cal Posse Shootout/ Legends Weekend presented by Berco Redwood was Hollister's Ryan Bernal, who earned a thrilling late race win with the Ultimate Sprint Car Series. With the victory on Friday evening, Sanders matched Sean Becker for fourth place on the all-time Winged 360 Sprint Car win list at the track. The driver of the Dale Miller Septic/ Thompson's Dealerships No. 4sa was poised as always in lapped traffic, while keeping a very fast Shane Golobic at bay throughout the feature. Sanders earned the pole of the Dash by way of winning his heat race out of fourth starting with a bold move on the initial start. He went on to win the six-lap contest, putting him on the pole in the feature. When the green flag waved in the 30-lap main event, he immediately jumped out front ahead of Golobic. The duo showed that they were the drivers to beat on this night and never got too far away from each other. Golobic kept Sanders within sight, but a couple of timely slow downs just as he was getting ready to pounce hampered his efforts. A trio of red flags along with several cautions plagued the flow of the race, but in between it, several movers and shakers were seen. As the race wound down in lapped traffic, Golobic caught Sanders, and it looked like we would be in for a classic battle towards the checkered. Just as that happened, however, a red flag period occurred with only four circuits remaining. The incident involved Clarksburg's Justyn Cox, who had put on an exceptional charge from 14th to fifth up until that point. Sanders then hit a perfect restart and led the final four laps to pick up the win over Golobic, Hollister's Ryan Bernal, Sacramento's Austin Wood and Auburn's Andy Forsberg. Completing the top 10 were Colby Copeland, Joel Myers Jr., Tyler Thompson, Chance Grasty and Hard Charger Shane Hopkins, who started 19th after fighting through issues in hot laps and qualifying. A strong field of 39 Winged Sprint Cars competed on opening night. Tony Gomes set the standard in qualifying with a lap of 10.726 around the quarter mile. The Ultimate Sprint Car Series made an epic Placerville Speedway debut on Friday night. Outstanding racing was seen right from the drop of the green flag and lasted all the way to an overtime- green, white, checkered conclusion. Winged Sprint Car regular Tanner Carrick hopped out to the early lead and set a torrid pace up front. The Lincoln driver was very impressive as he looked for his second career USCS victory. The action behind him was hot and heavy all throughout the field. Braden Chiaramonte took over second early on and methodically closed the gap between himself and the leader. With traffic coming into play, Chiaramonte closed quickly off turn two and snagged the top spot with 20 laps complete. After that he pulled away, eventually accepting the white flag. He looked to be headed for victory, only to have a stalled car bring out a yellow instead of the checkered. Always the Non-Winged ace, Ryan Bernal started from ninth and had battled back and forth with several drivers. He moved into third just past the halfway point, before utilizing the late caution to make his move. The overtime restart saw Bernal rocket by Carrick for second coming to the white flag and then shoot under Chiaramonte down the back stretch. The exhilarating finish saw Bernal come out on top over Chiaramonte, Carrick, Roseville's Josh Young and Illinois traveler Carson Short. Finishing sixth through 10th were Ryan Timmons, 16th starter Nathan Schank, 19th starting Jon DeWees, 23rd starter Dominic Scelzi and Austin Wood. A total of 23 cars competed on opening night with the Ultimate Sprint Car Series. Carson Short began the night by setting a brand new Non-Winged track record at Placerville Speedway with a lap of 11.616. The Nor*Cal Posse presented by Berco Redwood finishes up tonight with an $8,000 to win finale for the Winged Sprint Cars, along with the Ultimate Sprint Car Series.

- Overton Earns First Lucas Oil Victory of the Season at Circle City
INDIANAPOLIS, IN (May 2, 2025) - Brandon Overton had never seen Circle City Raceway before Friday night. However, during the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing's first-ever visit to the track on the southeast side of Indianapolis, Overton led every lap, earning the $15,000 victory and marking his first tour win of 2025. Devin Moran pulled even with Overton after a lap 17 restart but couldn't clear him, as the Evans, Georgia driver fended off Moran's challenges for the rest of the race. Hudson O'Neal secured third place on the Big River Steel Podium. Jonathan Davenport finished fourth, with Ricky Thornton Jr. completing the top five drivers. Overton took the lead from the pole position at the start of the 50-lap main event. Moran, who started next to Overton in the front row, moved into second and held that position until Garrett Alberson claimed second place on lap 15, just before a caution came out a lap later. On the restart, Moran passed Alberson to regain second place and raced door-to-door with Overton off of turn two along the entire back straightaway. However, Overton maintained the lead off of turn four, and Moran was unable to challenge him for the rest of the race. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 19th time in his career, Overton overcame a string of bad luck in the last few races to return to victory lane with his comeback to the series in 2025. "It would have been really easy for him (Moran) to get in there and knock me out a little bit, so I appreciate that. We have been leading races for four weekends in a row, and something happens, so sooner or later, something would go my way. I didn't think it would be here. It's pretty special to win here. I have the hardest-working guys in the pits; they don't give up, and they have good attitudes. As I said, I knew we were going to win sooner or later. The first one is always the hardest, so I hope it continues on." Moran, who entered the race second in points and was seeking his sixth series win of the year, took the runner-up spot, falling just 0.062 seconds to Overton at the finish. "It wasn't a bad run; congrats to Brandon and the guys. They have been having a lot of bad luck this year, so it's cool to see them win. I thought I had a chance; I got all the way underneath him, but I couldn't bring myself to go in there and door slam him for the win. I try to race respectfully, and he does too. I want to thank Circle City for tonight. The weather was not on our side; they still stuck their necks out there and put a lot of money on the line for us and for all of these fans sticking it out." O'Neal, whose only previous race experience at Circle City was in a crate late model, finished third in the Big River Steel Podium. "I was fortunate on that last restart and managed to bet on the bottom there. I kind of rooted my way in on the bottom and drove up to third. I caught up to those guys, but I just couldn't do anything with them. Thank you to Lucas Oil, congratulations to Brandon and Devin and everybody. Thank you to Circle City. It's always good to race around home. It's fun to see some familiar faces." The winner's Riggs Motorsports, Longhorn Factory Team Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Heartbeat Hot Sauce, Garnto Southern, Big Dog Stump and Tree, NAPA Auto Parts, Roof U.S., UNOH, Dude Wipes, and Mesilla Valley Transportation. Completing the top ten were Garrett Alberson, Daniel Hilsabeck, Jason Jameson, Spencer Hughes, and Carson Ferguson.

- Schlenk remains unbeaten in Attica late model action; Stroup tames 305 sprints; Sorg earns truck victory
ATTICA, Ohio - Rusty Schlenk remains undefeated at Attica Raceway Park in 2025. The three time national UMP late model champion took the lead with just seven laps remaining Friday, May 2 after a spirited battle with five time track champion Devin Shiels and drove to his fourth straight feature win on RPM Performance Parts/Morgan Stanley Night against the Valvoline American Late Model Iron-Man Series Schlenk, the 2024 American Late Model Iron-Man Series champion who won the series race at Attica last season, took home $5,049 in the Stephen Wagner Memorial event. He also earned an extra $1,049 for winning the special Australian Pursuit in honor of Larry Scott. "I tell all my drivers to drive at 80 percent at all times and leave 100 percent for when you need it. Man we needed 100 percent every lap tonight. That was wild…a hell of a race and a lot of fun," said Schlenk beside his Buckeye Concrete Coatings, Terry Henricks Auto Group, Velocita USA, Dominator Race Products, Tom Finch Auto, Domination Race Cars, All Star Performance backed #91. Shiels, from Britton, Mich., jumped out to the early lead and quickly pulled away from the pack as Colten Burdette, from Parkersburg, W. Va., held second over Schlenk, Kyle Moore and Ryan Markham. Moore took third on lap two but no one was challenging Shiels until he encountered heavy lapped traffic just eight laps into the 30-lap affair that saw only one caution flag. At the halfway point Shiels had a put two lapped machine between himself and a good battle for second between Burdette, who was seeing Attica for the first time in his career, and Schlenk as Markham drove into fourth over Moore. With 10 laps to go Schlenk, from McClure, Ohio, took second and quickly began to eat into Shiels' lead and used a lapped car as a pick to drive into the lead on lap 23. With just four laps to go Shiels used traffic and drove by Schlenk but something broke on his #51 and he drove off the high side of turn one, handing the lead back to Schlenk who drove away for his 47th career Attica late model win over Burdette, Markham, Todd Brennan and Moore. In the 25-lap Fremont Fence 305 sprint feature Dustin Stroup grabbed the early lead as a good battle formed behind him involving Dustin Dinan, Jamie Miller, Paul Weaver and Jimmy McGrath. Miller took second on lap three but a big bobble in turn two on lap seven put McGrath and Dinan into second and third. The only thing that slowed Stroup's march to the checkers was several late race cautions, including with just two laps to go. The Fremont, Ohio driver executed a perfect restart and drove to his ninth career Attica win over McGrath, Weaver, Dinan and Miller. "This feels great. I wasn't sure how much I could race this year with having a new baby so me and JRA parted ways on good terms and my family still had a lot of parts and I bought a car from Dan Roberts…I drove for him in Indiana. I finished third in the nationals in that thing and that's the car I got. It feels good to get a win in the family car again," said Stroup beside his Pizza House Clyde, Mama Dukes TRP, GCE LLS., Myer's Racing Engines, Midwest Dyno Services, Sulphur Town Pub, The Bowman Family, Warwick Entertainment, Bobby's Truck, Auto and Bus Repair, Wear A Print LLC, TME Services, Advance Auto Parts, Eye Candy Custom Cycles backed #10x. Fremont, Ohio's Keith Sorg battled with Shawn Valenti throughout the first 14 laps of the 15-lap dirt truck feature and then held off Jamie Miller in a one-lap dash following a caution on lap 14 to score his fourth career Attica win. "We blew up our good motor last week on opening night at Fremont. I've been kind of upset about that all week so to come out here and win makes up for a lot of that," said Sorg beside his Fremont Fence, M&L Excavating, Westend Tire, Great Lakes Garage Door backed #4s. Attica Raceway Park will be back in action Friday, May 9 for the 37th Annual Eric Phillips Anniversary Classic with the Attica Fremont Championship Series 410 and 305 sprints and the UMP Late Models in action.

- Stambaugh Thrills Hometown Crowd in Second Straight GLSS Win
Lima, OH - For the second straight week, three-time and defending Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP (GLSS) Champion, Max Stambaugh, took a trip to GLSS Victory Lane. The variable this week, the win was his first GLSS-sanctioned win at his home track to open the Ohio CAT Division season. Stambaugh and defending Ohio CAT Division Champion, Dustin Daggett, led the field to the green flag. Stambaugh's luck continued on the redraw, pulling the number one pill for the third week in a row. On the opening lap, the two defending champions went at it wheel-to-wheel before Stambaugh was able to get the edge. Meanwhile, Mike Keegan began to fall through the top 10 while Dalman settled into the third spot. Phil Gressman, Zeth Sabo, and Keegan all battled for the 4th through 6th spots throughout the better part of the race. Elsewhere, Ohio natives Chase Dunham, Devon Dobie, and Jared Horstman were locked in a tight battle within the top 10. The only caution of the night came just after halfway when Luke Griffith spun in turns three and four. Griffith was able to continue. On the restart, Keegan charged his way back onto the podium while Stambaugh raced away from Daggett once again. For the second week in a row, Stambaugh led flag-to-flag to earn his second win of the 2025 season. "It's been a while, Limaland," Stambaugh said in Victory Lane. "It's the best I've felt here in a long time. Just winning in front of where I grew up, my dad's here, my mom - it just means a lot," an emotional Stambaugh finished in Victory Lane. Zeth Sabo earned the Ti22 Performance Fast Qualifier Award and won Engler Machine & Tool Heat Race Number One, while Stambaugh won Howard Johnson by Wyndham Heat Race Number Two. Jared Horstamn earned the Operating Engineers 324 Hard Charger advancing three spots. The next event for the Great Lakes Super Sprints is Friday, May 9th in a return to I-96 Speedway.

- Rains Kill Williams Grove Program Mid-Stream Friday, Outlaws Are Next Week
Mechanicsburg - Friday night's sprint car races at Williams Grove Speedway were cancelled when rains hit the track in the middle of the program. Time trials had been completed for the 33 Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars on hand and the make-up 358 sprint feature was on the track when light rain hit, putting a halt to action. After a brief shower the track was ironed in and the cars were again on the track, forming up for the start of the make-up feature again when a bout of heavier rain doused the track, ending the night. Rainchecks from May 2 will be honored. Visit www.williamsgrove.com to view the complete raincheck policy. Prior to the rains, Anthony Macri of Dillsburg set fast time in qualifications with a lap of 16.550 seconds. Macri's fast time was just five one-thousandths of a second off of the quick time that he posted when the track was last in action back on April 18. Heat lineups for the 410 sprints were set with pole positions in each of the four events earned by Macri, Lucas Wolfe, Troy Wagaman Jr. and Danny Dietrich. The make-up Dirty Deeds 358 sprint feature from April 4 will now be contested on May 16. Williams Grove Speedway will host the HVAC Distributors Morgan Cup weekend for World of Outlaws and Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars coming up Friday and Saturday, May 9 and 10 at 7:30 pm both nights. The HVAC Distributors Morgan Cup will find the outlaws and local Pennsylvania Posse sprint car drivers squaring off in a 25 lap main on Friday with the big prize up for grabs on Saturday night when a 30-lap feature is contested. The winner will score $12,000 on Friday night before Saturday's finale pays $15,000 to win plus another $5,000 for Morgan Cup bragging rights, setting up a cool $20,000 take for the finale winner.

- Sexton Gatlin Racing Returns to Placerville Speedway This Weekend
Lakeside, CA, May 1, 2025 — This Friday and Saturday, May 2nd and 3rd, Sexton Gatlin Racing (SGR) will make its highly anticipated return to Placerville Speedway as drivers Brent Sexton and his son Grant compete in the Ultimate Sprint Car Series (USCS) at the iconic Northern California venue. This marks the Lakeside, California-based team's first appearance at Placerville since a dominant showing in 2022. SGR's last outing at the red clay oval was as part of the show at the three-night Hangtown 100 in November 2022, which was co-sanctioned by the California Lightning Sprint Car Series and Bay Cities Racing Association. The team swept all three main events that weekend: San Diego's AJ Bender took victories on the first two nights, with Grant Sexton finishing second and sixth. On the final night, it was 17-year-old Grant's turn to shine, claiming the win with Bender right behind in second. Brent, a three-time lightning sprint car series champion, also made all three main events in 2022, finishing fifth, 12th, and 15th. His oldest son, Dalton, qualified for all three mains as well, earning finishes of 10th, 12th, and 15th. This Friday, Brent returns to the seat for one night only before heading off for his annual vacation in Cabo San Lucas. He enters the weekend ranked fourth in USCS points, just four digits out of third. In four starts this season, Brent's best finish was a fifth-place showing at Ocean Speedway on March 28. Grant, now 20, will be racing both nights. Thus far, he has made two USCS starts in 2025. He earned an eighth-place finish at Ventura Raceway on March 8 and was poised for a top-five finish at Bakersfield on April 12 before contact with another car knocked him out of contention, resulting in a 17th-place finish. He currently sits 20th in the championship standings.
