- Andy Forsberg becomes winningest driver in Hall Memorial history with thrilling drive Sunday
Marysville, CA…Andy Forsberg may be approaching age 50 in less than a month, but on Sunday night he looked every bit a spry youngster utilizing a brave and bold drive, bringing home his seventh career Mel & Marlyn Hall Memorial triumph at Marysville Raceway. With his win from the 10th starting spot, the Auburn veteran becomes the all-time leader in wins at the event, breaking a tie that he shared with Marysville Raceway legend Colby Wiesz. Forsberg and his Pacific Highway Rentals No. 92 team pocketed $5,000 for the SCCT victory, plus an additional $150 cash for Hard Charger thanks to the Rounds Family. "This is one of those events that really means a lot to me," Forsberg said to infield reporter Roy Benning. "The Hall Family were such huge supporters of the sport out here and gave a lot of their lives to auto racing. They played a big role in my early years driving, so to win this race seven times is special." The 30-lap Shop Kyle Larson feature began with High Sierra Industries Dash winner Colby Copeland jumping out front. The driver of the C&M Motorsports No. 7c set a fast pace early on and kept the field at bay. Lapped traffic over the opening stages created some hectic and exciting racing as usual on the tight Marysville Raceway bulling. Tanner Carrick and Chance Grasty raced closely behind Copeland as the leaders zigged and zagged through the slower traffic. Several cautions and a red flag period slowed the flow just before the halfway point of the race. After that, however, business began to pick up. With 14 circuits complete Andy Forsberg found himself in sixth, but he was determined to not stay there. A restart at the halfway point saw "Mr. Excitement" rocket to the high side in traditional fashion and charge all the way into second. He proceeded to work on leader Copeland and looked to make the pass on a couple of occasions, only to have cautions bring it back. Forsberg stayed with it though and finally sealed the deal to get past Copeland on lap 18 for the top spot. Copeland didn't let him off easily and remained glued to his tail tank. The Promoter at Silver Dollar Speedway then had to deal with a fast-moving Grasty, who claimed second on lap 24. The final laps saw Grasty cut the gap between himself and Forsberg, while making it a battle for the win coming to the checkered flag. Forsberg hit his marks and crossed the stripe just ahead of Grasty to claim his ninth career Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour victory. Grasty and Copeland rounded out the podium on Sunday evening. Grasty captured $300 for Fast Time earlier in the program thanks to Sierra Foothills Wine Services, Brian Sperry and Chowchilla Mike in memory of Leslie Goohue. He then accepted the BC Bold Choice Bonus to collect $500 prior to the Dash draw. With extra money on the line for second, he and the F&F Racing team took home $3,300 for their efforts. Sean Becker and Justyn Cox completed the top five. The remainder of the top 10 was filled out by Tanner Carrick, Seth Standley, Luke Hayes, Austin Wood and Brad Bumgarner. The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour returns to action this coming Saturday May 30th at Placerville Speedway. The Davy Thomas Memorial offers $6,000-to-win/ $600-to-start and features several extra incentives thanks to several gracious people.

- Pierce Wins Third Career Show-Me 100 After Starting 20th
WHEATLAND, MO (May 24, 2026) - Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Illinois charged from the 20th starting position to capture the 34th Annual Show-Me 100 presented by Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging on Sunday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Pierce took the lead on lap 61 and led the remainder of the 100-lap feature to earn $75,000 and secure his second consecutive Show-Me 100 victory. The win marked Pierce's first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph of the 2026 season and his third career victory in the prestigious Crown Jewel event. Brandon Sheppard advanced from sixth to finish second, while Jonathan Davenport—who led a race-high 54 laps—rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Garrett Alberson finished fourth, and current Series points leader Hudson O'Neal completed the top five. Davenport and Josh Rice started on the front row after winning Friday night's Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson and Cowboy Classic features, respectively. Davenport led the opening 17 laps before Rice surged to the front and paced the field for six circuits. Davenport reclaimed the lead on lap 24 and appeared in control until lap 61, when he pushed high exiting turn two, allowing both Pierce and Sheppard to drive past. Pierce then pulled away to win by 1.296 seconds over Sheppard. With the victory, Pierce became the first driver to win back-to-back Show-Me 100s since Jimmy Owens accomplished the feat in 2012 and 2013. The win was the 30th Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of Pierce's career, tying him with Billy Moyer and Wendell Wallace as three-time winners of the event, which began in 1993. "We were off during the preliminary nights again this year, and honestly I didn't think we had a shot to win like we did last year," Pierce said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "The rain changed everything, and the track crew gave us a completely different racetrack. You never run the same setup here—it keeps you guessing." "The racetrack had a lot of character tonight, and luckily it suited us. My guys worked their butts off all weekend. Every time we came into the pits, we changed something. Saying we threw the kitchen sink at it is probably an understatement." Sheppard was attempting to improve on his previous best Show-Me 100 finish of second, which came in 2021. "I think we had a little different tire combination than Bobby," Sheppard said. "I felt like I couldn't run many laps around the top before it started to go away, so I was trying to really hit the bottom in turns three and four and slowly creep toward him. I probably didn't move around enough, but I was trying to take care of my tires. A lot of guys on the same tire strategy faded late." Davenport's race-leading effort ended after contact with the rough surface affected his car during the closing laps. "I don't know if we bent something or what, but we started bottoming out really bad," Davenport said. "I was trying to find the smoothest part of the racetrack. The track crew actually did a really good job because there were multiple grooves at the end. Me, Sheppard, and Pierce were all trying different things. I just couldn't slow down and launch off the bottom like some of those guys could." Pierce's winning Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and backed by Low Voltage Solutions, Rio Grande Waste Services, Churchill Transport, Collins Brothers Towing, Carnaghi Towing, Leka Tree Service, Fort Knox Safes & Vaults, and First Farmers Bank & Trust. Completing the top ten were Ricky Thornton Jr., Brandon Overton, Clay Harris, Chris Ferguson, and Carson Ferguson.

- Pierce charges from 20th to victory lane at 34th annual Show-Me 100
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 24, 2026) - The right side of Bobby Pierce's car was beaten and battered in victory lane, even part of the spoiler missing from slapping Lucas Oil Speedway's turn-four cement wall as he charged from his 20th starting position. Turns out that $75,000 will buy plenty of sheet metal. Finding speed that had been missing all weekend, using holes in the dirt surface and contact with the wall as a springboard, Pierce successfully defended his title at Sunday night's 34th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging. Pierce had to win a B-Main to make the starting field for the 100-lap feature. He took the lead on lap 61 and held off Brandon Sheppard and Jonathan Davenport the rest of the way. The Oakwood, Ill., driver also won the race in 2017. He became only the fourth driver with three or more Show-Me 100 victories joining the late Scott Bloomquist, Jimmy Owens and Wendell Wallace in that exclusive club. Owens was the last back-to-back winner, winning three straight in 2011, 2012 and 2013. "Man, that's awesome," Pierce said. "I remember when I was first getting started in Late Models, Jimmy Owens was the guys to beat here, and Scott, of course. Just an incredible group of guys. They're both from Tennessee and this track is a mixture of Tennessee and Illinois, man. The middle you have to drive like it's Tennessee and the top you have to drive like Illinois. "It's just awesome to be a part of that list and come back and repeat this thing. This is the reason we came here. I think we're the only (World of Outlaws) guy to show up. We had a tough last weekend last week, we have a tough week ahead of us. We really needed to get home today so we could work on a new car, but came to defend our title and it worked out." Delayed one day by rain, the program saw preliminary feature winners Davenport and Josh Rice on the front row. Pierce, who struggled mightily on Thursday and Friday, won the second B-Main to start outside of row 10. Optimism was not soaring on race day, but Pierce and his team were the personification of determination. He said a reporter asked him on Saturday about his chances and he shook his head. It was a year ago when he started eighth and captured the lead on lap 69 and never gave it up. "I kind of sucked on the prelim nights and ended up winning on Saturday," Pierce said of his 2025 win. "I said, 'man, we are way off. I don't see that happening at all.' But it rained and man, they give us a different race track every night. It keeps us guessing. "Where the holes were, I was making speed so I was trying to hit them." Pierce led the final 39 laps this time after Davenport paced 54 of the first 60. It didn't take long for Pierce to charge from 20th into the top 10 in an event that had five cautions, the final one on lap 93 that gave Sheppard and Davenport one final chance to chase him down. "I couldn't run very many laps around the top before I started to feel bad," said Sheppard, of New Berlin, Ill. "I was just trying ... if I could hit two laps in a row right in three and four, I could creep to him a little bit. I felt like I was pretty good in one and two, I just didn't really move around as much as I needed to. "I was just trying to take care of my tires and a lot of guys who ran the same tire combination I did fell back." Davenport and Rice ran 1-2 in the early going. The leaders caught lapped traffic by lap 12 and the first lead change came on lap 18 when Rice went around Davenport on the outside off turn two. Davenport returned the favor and took the lead away from Rice on lap 24 at the same place on the track, with Sheppard third and Hudson O'Neal fourth. Pierce had charged to sixth from 20th by lap 35 as the long green-flag run continued. Caution No. 1 flew on lap 41 as Davenport held a two-second lead over Rice with Sheppard, O'Neal and Pierce rounding out the top five. Sheppard took second away from Rice two laps after the restart as Davenport bolted to a 1.8-second lead. Pierce's march took him to second on lap 58 with a slider on Sheppard in turns three and four. As Pierce closed on Davenport, Clay Stuckey and Mason Oberkramer spun to bring out a caution on lap 59. That was all Pierce needed as he would soon take advantage on a rare Davenport mistake after the restart. Davenport slipped high in turn two and Pierce slid past on the inside to take the lead. Pierce quickly opened a one-second lead over Sheppard with Davenport settling into third, four seconds behind Pierce. Lapped traffic was no problem for Pierce, who doubled the size of his lead by lap 73 with O'Neal taking third away from Davenport. Pierce held a two-second lead with 20 to go. Things got more interesting on lap 83 when caution No. 4 waved for debris on the track, from part of Pierce's spoiler. Davenport passed Sheppard on the restart and gave chase to Pierce, who continually pop the outside wall in turn four. Sheppard went back to second on lap 86. Pierce said that hitting the wall coming off turn four actually helped him gain speed off the turn at times. The speedway reworked turns three and four in the offseason, taking out the shelf atop the turns with banking progressing all the way to the wall. Even though he's notorious for seeking the high groove, as is necessary in many tracks in his home state, Pierce said he was skeptical about the cushion getting to the wall. "I was pretty pessimistic. I told a bunch of fans back (in the pits) that I don't see (the cushion) getting up there. I think it's too flat, but we'll see," Pierce said. "It got up there.: Pierce held a 1.2-second lead on lap 93 when the fifth caution, again for debris. That set the stage for a seven-lap shootout. Continuing to live on the edge of the top groove, Pierce held on and beat Sheppard by 1.3 seconds. "Luckily just the way the track was and the car was great, too," Pierce added. "My guys worked their butts off this weekend. Every time we were in the pits, we were changing something. Throwing the kitchen sink at it is an understatement." Davenport settled for third with Alberson fourth and O'Neal fifth. "I don't know if we bent something, but we started bottoming out really bad through the middle," Davenport said. "We were just trying to find the smoothest place. They did a pretty good job, the track crew. There were three lanes at the end and me and Sheppard and Pierce were all trying to do something different. "I guess third is better than a poke in the eye, but leading so much and we've been so good here that is just sucks to run third." Rice faded to 14th and the top local finisher was Urbana's Dillon McCowan, who wound up 12th. Ingram wins USRA Stock Cars: Eddie Ingram of Linn Valley, Kan., took the lead on lap six and drove away to the O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars feature prior to the Show-Me 100. Pole-starting Shayne Bailey checked out to a sizable lead over Ingram and William Garner by the first caution on lap five. Ingram took the lead away on the restart with Fennewald rallying from fifth to second. Bailey pulled off the track the next time around, leaving Ingram and Fennewald running 1-2 at the halfway point. Action was slowed again on lap 11 for a three-car spin in turn four, wiped out Ingram's 1.4-second lead. Ingram quickly rebuilt, even extending his leading margin after the restart. He kept pouring in on and beat Jayden Bears by 1.7 seconds. Garner finished third with Fennewald fourth and Mason Beck fifth. "This track was awesome. It doesn't get any better than this," Ingram said in victory lane. "It's a super cool place and I"m glad they had us down here. There's not a bad car in the whole field. It was fun to race with those guys."
