- Brent Sexton Has Dream Trip to Indiana
Lakeside, CA - June 19, 2025 — Brent Sexton of Lakeside, California, lived out a lifelong dream earlier this month when he traveled to Indiana to compete in the Sprint Car portion of Indiana Midget Week. The three-time Lightning Sprint Car champion was geared up to compete six nights in a row. However, Mother Nature had other plans, and the veteran racer was only able to race three times due to rain. Sexton and the traveling Sexton Gatlin Racing crew kicked off their Indiana campaign at Circle City Raceway, just minutes from the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway on June 3rd. There, Sexton faced the toughest field of competitors in his sprint car career. Still, the seasoned driver wasn't fazed in the slightest. After qualifying seventh in his group, he lined up in the same spot for his heat race. Early on, he ran near the back but quickly found speed on the low line, advancing to fifth and nearly grabbing the final transfer spot before running out of laps. In the 17-car, 12-lap B Main, Sexton started fourth—thanks to his heat race performance—and held his ground, using the bottom groove to move up to third and secure a coveted transfer into the A Main. For a driver who only began racing full-sized sprint cars two years ago, transferring into the main event against such a stacked field was a significant achievement. Starting 19th in the feature due to his qualifying time, Sexton again relied on the low line and charged forward to finish 14th. Only two other drivers passed more cars than the Tennessee native in the 25-lap main event. Twenty-four hours later, Sexton and the beautiful #42 car made the short trip to Paragon Speedway. Buoyed by his strong showing at Circle City, he was ready to take on another unfamiliar track. Qualifying didn't go in his favor, however, as he timed in ninth in his group and started deep in his heat. He managed to pass one car, placing him in a tough spot for the 22-car B Main. Starting 16th, Sexton again went to work on the bottom, advancing five positions to finish 11th. Unfortunately, time ran out, and he didn't make the A Main. On the bright side, only four drivers improved their positions more in the B. The following night at Lincoln Park Speedway in Putnamville, racing was canceled due to rain. Unfortunately, the wet weather lingered, washing out the next two nights of competition at Bloomington and Tri-State Speedway. Fortunately, the rain vacated the area by Sunday night, and Sexton was able to compete at the legendary Kokomo Speedway—a track he had looked forward to racing on the most. He qualified seventh in his group of 10 and finished eighth in both his heat race and the B Main. Though he didn't make the A, just getting the chance to compete at Kokomo was another highlight of the trip. Aside from the rain and some motorhome issues on the return trip, the week was a memorable one for the entire Sexton Gatlin Racing team. While most of the team was in Indiana, SGR teammate Braydin Collie had a stellar outing with the California Lightning Sprint Cars at Bakersfield Speedway on June 7th. After qualifying seventh, the El Cajon, California teenager won his eight-lap heat race. Starting sixth in the feature, he charged to the front and even led momentarily in a thrilling mid-race battle. He eventually finished third—his best result of the year. Sexton Gatlin Racing has a big announcement on the horizon. Details will be revealed in the next week to 10 days.

- LEVI KLATT PULLS OFF UNBELIEVABLE SPRINT CAR VICTORY AT SKAGIT DIRT CUP OPENER
(6/19/25 - Andrew Kunas) Burlington, WA ... Levi Klatt stunned the sprint car world and thrilled the Skagit Speedway crowd with a late race pass and held on to win his first NARC 410 sprint car race, taking Thursday's Jim Raper Memorial Super Dirt Cup preliminary. The Langley, British Columbia driver, a former Skagit Speedway champion in sportsman sprints, was in his 16th start in a 410 sprint car, and he picked one of the biggest stages to get his first win in the division, and it happened at his home track. Klatt, starting on the outside of the front row for the 30-lap event, got the better start over pole sitter Shane Golobic and took the lead on the initial start. Klatt led the first eight circuits while Indiana visitor Justin Peck raced his way by Golobic to move into second. The veteran racer went after Klatt and passed him for the lead with a slider in Turns 1 and 2 on Lap 9. Peck for a time drove away from Klatt, who continued to hold off Golobic for second. After a lengthy green flag run following a fuel stop, Peck encountered traffic and couldn't make timely passes around the slower cars, and that allowed Klatt to move in. On the 28th lap, Klatt challenged, and got Peck in traffic exiting Turn 4 for the lead. Peck threw a slider in Turns 1 and 2 on the next lap, and the two found themselves side by side on the back stretch, making contact as they entered Turn 3, and they stayed battling, with Klatt leading Lap 29 by the nose of the car. A caution flag for a spun car came out and cleared the track with Klatt in the lead. Klatt was perfect on the final green-white-checkered restart and drove away for the big victory aboard the Chilliwack Ford-sponsored Klatt Racing No. 77 Fauver-powered Maxim. The Canadian driver did his special victory celebration in a 410 sprint car event for the first time, drinking a bottle of maple syrup atop his car as the Skagit Speedway crowd roared its approval. "I cannot put it into words. This is the coolest thing I've ever done in my life. That was probably the most intense racing I've ever done," an excited and astonished Klatt said in the winner's circle about the win and late battle with Peck. "Justin is real good racer. He's top of the line. I am so proud. I said (during the open red) I needed lapped traffic or a misstep, and guess I got both of them in one. Got into it a little bit in (turn) 3 but it worked out. I still can't believe it!" After leading 19 total laps, Peck finished second aboard the Angel of the Winds Casino-sponsored Rudeen Racing No. 26 Shaver Ford-powered Maxim. Shane Golobic, having run in the Top 5 throughout, finished third in the NOS Energy-sponsored Matt Wood Racing No. 17w Kistler-powered KPC. Defending NARC champion Justin Sanders, a 2023 Dirt Cup winner, finished fourth after starting seventh aboard the Yuba Sutter Aviation-sponsored Mittry Motorsports No. 2x Fisher-powered KPC. Tanner Holmes came from 11th to finish fifth in the Legacy Builder Supply-sponsored Holmes Racing No. 18t Rider-powered Triple X. Brent Marks, Robbie Price, the 17th starting Joel Meyers Jr, Cam Smith and Scott Bogucki rounded out the Top 10. NARC Rookie of the Year contender Tyler Thompson, the last transfer out of the Winters Performance Last Chance Qualifier, earned the Williams Roofing Hard Charger Award, advancing 11 positions from 24th to finish 13th. James McFadden won the Winter Performance Last Chance Qualifier, taking Dominic Scelzi, Gauge Garcia and Thompson with him to the Thursday preliminary feature. Landon Brooks won the C-Feature. Heat races earlier in the evening, all featuring eight car inverts as part of the Dirt Cup format, were won by Dominic Gorden, Bud Kaeding, Caeden Steele, Max Mittry and Cory Eliason. Trey Starks paced the 47-car field in Automotive Racing Products Qualifying with a time of 11.059 seconds around the 3/10-mile, high-banked clay oval. Points from qualifying and heat races determined main event lineups. With the special Dirt Cup format featuring large inverts and points from qualifying, heat races and main events, Trey Starks, who started 16th with the invert and finished 11th, is at the top of the points after Thursday night, followed by Holmes, Marks and Bogucki. The 53rd Jim Raper Memorial Super Dirt Cup continues with another full night of preliminary action on Friday night, with the main event paying $10,000. Points from Thursday and Friday will be combined to play a large role in determining lineups for Saturday's main events, and the Super Dirt Cup feature will pay $100,026 to win.

- Price Miller pays tribute to Jamie Miller with Waynesfield All Star win
WAYNESFIELD, OHIO - You couldn't have scripted what happened Thursday, June 19 at Waynesfield Raceway Park any better. Bernie and Betsy Steubgen, owners of Indy Race Parts, wanted to pay tribute to one of their dear friends, Jamie Miller, who owned sprint cars over the years and who passed away in January. The Jamie Miller Memorial race was created and took place at Waynesfield as part of the Overwatch Precision Ohio Sprint Speedweek Presented by Gill Construction featuring the Napa Auto Parts All Star Circuit of Champions Presented by Valvoline. The feature event was paced by the legendary Jac Haudenschild who drove Jamie's cars off and on for several years. The outcome? Bernie and Betsy's car, driven by Park Price Miller of Kokomo, Indiana, snagged the win worth $7,506 - the six was Miller's sprint car number. Price Miller took the lead from Kalib Henry on lap six and held off a late race charge from Danny Dietrich in lapped traffic to earn his fourth career All Star win. Last year's Speedweek Waynesfield winner Cale Thomas came home third with Tim Shaffer and Ryan Smith rounding out the top five. "This one is for Jamie Miller. Bernie and Betsy were tight with him. Everyone knows how good of a guy Jamie was. He would do anything for you. He did the graphics on my cars and on Bernie's. This is very special to all of us. My guys made some changes after the dash and this thing drove like a Cadillac," said Price Miller beside his Indy Race Parts/Garrett Racing Engines backed #71. For Dietrich, it was another second place run after having been nipped at the line by Thomas the year before. "Second sucks. I keep running second here. I love coming to the Field…there's just nothing like it. I thought I might have a shot in traffic but I made one mistake and it cost us," said Dietrich beside his Weikert's Livestock, Speedway Cars, Sandoes Fruit Market, Gary Kauffman Racing backed #48. In the Midwest Thunder D2 USAC Midgets feature, Troy, Ohio's Bryce Massingill took the lead with just two laps to go and drove to the win. "Me and Luke (Hall) have battled at everyone of the four races we have had this year. It was a super technical track tonight but JB (Jakeb Boxell) showed me the line to run," said Massingill. The All Stars head to Moler Raceway Park Friday, June 20 and wrap up Ohio Sprint Speedweek at Atomic Speedway Saturday for the Dean Knittel Memorial paying $26, 554 to win. Waynesfield Raceway Park will be back in action Thursday, July 3 for the Let Freedom Ring Night featuring the Great Lakes Super Sprints 360 winged sprint cars, the DIRTcar UMP Modifieds and the Dirt Track Truck Series.

- Sprint Cars Headline Saturday's Racing Program at Perris Auto Speedway
PERRIS, CA (June 19, 2025) — The Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars return to Perris Auto Speedway this Saturday night for what was originally scheduled to be their sixth appearance of the 2025 season. However, due to weather cancellations on February 13 and April 26, this weekend's event will mark only the fourth race for the popular series at the famous Southern California half-mile clay oval. So far in 2025, Oxnard's Ricky Lewis has dominated the USAC/CRA action at Perris, winning two of the first three main events — including the prestigious Salute to Indy over Memorial Day weekend. The only other winner this year at the track is 20-year-old David Gasper of Goleta, who captured the season opener on February 13. Lewis, who has been commuting from Indiana to compete in the series this summer, enters Saturday night with a slim 18-point lead over defending series champion R.J. Johnson of Laveen, Arizona. Gasper currently sits third in the standings, with A.J. Bender of San Diego and Austin Williams of Corona — a new father — rounding out the top five. All five are expected to be in action on Saturday. Across the full nine-race USAC/CRA season to date, only Lewis and Gasper have multiple wins. Lewis tops the chart with five victories, while Gasper has two. Jake Swanson of Anaheim and Templeton's Kaleb Montgomery have one win each. Joining the Sprint Cars in Saturday's exciting triple-header program are the PASSCAR Super Stocks and Street Stocks. In the Super Stock division, a fierce battle is brewing between Chuck Becker of Yucaipa and Tyson Talkington, a second-generation racer from Riverside. The two are tied atop the standings. Talkington, 38, won the championship in 2022, while Becker tied for the title last year with Buena Park's Billy Griffin. Griffin, who missed the first race of the season, will return this Saturday in his familiar white and orange #2A. In the Street Stock division, Shawn Estes of Riverside leads the championship chase after winning the first two races of the year. Estes is seeking his first Perris Auto Speedway title since 2012. Trailing him by just six points is George Leventis of Rancho Palos Verdes. Evan Sennett (Riverside), Chad Mahony (Yorba Linda), and Tim "Shaggy" Shadduck (Hemet) round out the top five. Spectator gates open at 5:00 p.m., and the first green flag will wave at 7:00. Come out for an exciting night of dirt track racing and clean family fun!

- Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: Minnesota transplant Gudmonson making a USRA Modified impact
WHEATLAND, MO. (June 18, 2025) - One of the new names on the Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modified scene in 2025 at Lucas Oil Speedway is Troy Gudmonson, a Minnesota native who's re-located to southwest Missouri. Gudmonson works for Terry Phillips, one of the biggest names in Missouri racing. The 23-year-old, driving a Bloodline Race Car by Phillips, has put together three top-10 runs in four events this season to rank fourth in track points. "It's been going pretty good. Every time I've gone out it's gotten better and better," Gudmonson said. "I got myself a Bloodline over the winter after having a GRT last year. Every time I go out I keep learning stuff and I kind of keep progressing." Gudmonson grew up in Savage, Minn., about 30 minutes south of Minneapolis and started driving quarter midgets at the age of six. He climbed behind the wheel of a Modified for the first time at 14. While he's a first-generation race-car driver, Gudmonson said the passion for motorsports in his family runs deep. Both his dad and grandfather have been dirt-track fans for years and Troy's parents even spent their honeymoon taking in the Knoxville Nationals in Iowa. The streak of attending the Knoxville Nationals is at about 23 years, the same as Troy's age. The connection with Phillips was sparked when Phillips posted some used tires for sale on Facebook marketplace. The Gudmonson team bought about 30 of them and picked them at Cedar Lake Speedway when Phillips was racing there. "That's when I got my feet wet a little bit, asking (Phillips) what it was like working on race cars full time," Gudmonson said. "At that time I was about 16 and didn't know what I wanted to do after high school. Terry told me to contact him after high school. He's pretty strict on schooling. "I turned 18 and the summer after graduation he gave me a call and said, 'Hey, I need a crew guy.' It kind of went from there." Gudmonson moved to Springfield at 18 and worked in Phillips' shot the summer after he graduated. But after a year and a half, he moved back home. "Then in May of last year I moved back here and I'm completely relocated now," Gudmonson said. Phillips has been like a college professor, teaching Gudmonson various aspects of racing. One especially stands out to the young student. "That first time around I learned a lot," Gudmonson said. "But this second time around I've learned a lot more about set-up and being able to translate it. You could say that I learn something every day. "Terry and his whole family treat me like family and that's something I'm grateful for." Gudmonson's sponsors include Terry Phillips Racing and Bloodline Race Cars, Charlson Body Repair, Hanson Farms and High Side Welding. He also gave a special shout-out to Dan Wheeler and Teresa Duda from Minnesota, who were instrumental early in his Modified career. "I was really green when I got into Modified racing and (they) helped me tremendously," Gudmonson said. "All of those people, I consider them like family." The Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds will run a special 25-lap, $1,000-to-win feature on Saturday to highlight Pitts Homes and Realty Weekly Racing Series Round 7. The Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mods, O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars, Hickamo Super Stocks and Hermitage Lumber Late Models also will be in action. Fans can enjoy a free night at the races while helping out their neighbors in need during the annual Ozarks Food Harvest Food Drive Night at the Races. Usual grandstand admission is $5, but fans will be admitted free by bringing four non-perishable food items to the front gate. Pit gates and grandstands open at 4 p.m., with hot laps at 6:30 and opening ceremonies at 7. Dirt track Saturday admission: *General admission (6 and up) - $5 General admission (5 and under) - FREE Pit pass - $35 * General admission FREE with four non-perishable food items Bicycle donations sought: The biggest night of the racing season for kids is just a couple of weeks away at Lucas Oil Speedway and track officials need assistance in making some dreams come true for the youngsters. Casey's Thursday Night Thunder Kids' Night at the Races is set for July 3rd with a big post-race fireworks display capping the night of racing. But perhaps the biggest highlight will occur during intermission with the annual kids' bicycle giveaway on the midway. The speedway is rounding up new bicycles and is asking fans, drivers and sponsors for help in either donating bikes for kids up to age 12 or money that can be used to purchase the bicycles. Youngsters ages 5 through 12 can sign up at the RCR Designs Jr Fan Club table before intermission for a chance to enter a drawing for the new bicycles of various sizes. For more information about the bicycle giveaway and how to donate, contact the speedway office at (417) 282-5984. RCR Junior Fan Club: The RCR Junior Fan Club Kids' Pit Tour continues this Saturday.

- PASSCAR Super and Street Stocks Join Sprint Cars Saturday at Perris
PERRIS, CA (June 17, 2025) — PASSCAR Stock Car Racing returns to Perris Auto Speedway this Saturday night, June 21st, when the popular Super Stocks and Street Stocks join the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars for a tripleheader show on the famous half-mile clay oval. It will mark the second appearance of the season for the Super Stocks and the third for the Street Stocks. So far this year, Mother Nature has been the biggest winner in the Super Stock class. Inclement weather has wiped out two events, making Saturday's race just the second for the division in 2025. The only appearance of the supers thus far this year came 2 ½ months ago on April 5th, when Riverside's Tyson Talkington edged out Yucaipa's Chuck Becker in a competitive 20-lap main event. Thanks to Becker's stronger performance in the preliminary heat races that night, the two drivers enter Saturday's showdown tied atop the championship point standings. Despite his impressive showing in April, Talkington—a 38-year-old father of two and the 2022 Super Stock champion at The PAS, probably will not be a factor for the title this year. He currently oversees the kids racing classes at Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway, which sometimes has conflicts with the PAS schedule. That commitment will keep him from running a full season at Perris. "We are going to bring the Super Stock out and I am going to be doing double duty in a Street Stock on Saturday as well," Talkington said while prepping his cars on Tuesday. "I run the kids' program at Mohave, and when they race, I have to be there. Even if it is a night when I am not racing but the kids are racing, like say with the sprint cars, I have to be there." His connection to the kids' classes began when The PAS hosted the So Cal Oval Karters Club on Saturday afternoons. His daughter Sadielee turned in her first laps on the infield track in a mini dwarf car at age five. In 2022, the same year Tyson won the Super Stock title, Sadielee captured the Mohave Mini Dwarf Sportsman championship. Now nine years old, she is competing in the Mini Dwarf Masters division and currently sits second in the standings at Mohave. That gives her bragging rights over her father, who is sixth in the IMCA Modified class at the same track. A former motocross and speedway motorcycle racer, Talkington has turned into a top-notch, adaptable auto racer, driving and winning in both IMCA Modifieds and Super Stocks. Proof of that point was his winning the track championships in both classes at Mohave Valley last year. After the kids, Modifieds are now his main racing focus. "I noticed that in the modifieds, you can go to a lot more tracks to race at," he said via phone. "We got hold of one and have just been having fun with it. I love trying out different racetracks, seeing new things, and meeting different people." The racing tradition continues with the youngest member of the family, 4-year-old Brooks, who is eager to follow in his sister's tire tracks. Brooks has been practicing in a go-kart on a small dirt oval behind their home in a go-kart that belonged to a family friend. Talkington acquired one of the arrive-and-drive go-karts from California Speedway when it closed. Now he cuts laps with Brooks on the backyard oval. He thinks Brooks will debut competitively at Mohave Valley when the 2025 season resumes in September. "I just enjoy racing," Talkington answered when asked what his racing future holds. "My daughter enjoys doing it, and it is something we can do together. So, as long as we are having fun, we are going to keep doing it. I really hope that someday she steps up and we can race in the same class. She asked me the other day what would be next when her time comes and she ages out (of the mini dwarfs). I guess we will get to that point when it comes and just go from there." Currently, Talkington's shop houses five race cars: two Super Stocks, one IMCA Modified, and two IMCA Stock Cars. This Saturday at Perris, the team will field a Super Stock and Stock Car for Talkington and also bring out the second Super Stock for longtime PAS competitor and Talkington's father-in-law, "Hot Rod" John Caley. In the PASSCAR Street Stocks, Shawn Estes of Riverside has been the class of the field through the first two races, winning both main events. The veteran driver has a six-point lead over Rancho Palos Verdes racer George Leventis after two races. Third spot, only five points out of second, is Ohio native and current Riverside resident Evan Sennett.
