AFT - American Flat Track

dirt track racing organizations

AMA Pro Racing sanctions many disciplines of motorcycle racing, but the oldest and most traditional is flat track - sometimes referred to as "dirt track" racing. While the roots of flat track racing date back to the early 1900's, it wasn't until post-World War II that the sport evolved into its current modern structure, a uniquely American type of motorcycle racing. Riders finesse their machines sideways through the turns, just inches apart from each other, at speeds over 130 mph. In short, AMA Pro Flat Track provides one of the most thrilling spectacles in motorsports. AMA Pro Flat Track is comprised of two diverse yet equally exciting classes which produce incredibly competitive racing:

Brunner, Bauman earn Progressive American Flat Track motorcycle wins at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (July 18, 2025) - Progressive Flat Track motorcycles came to Lucas Oil Speedway for the first time on Friday night and put on a show, with Trevor Brunner making a last-turn pass for the feature win in the AFT Singles. Brunner of Aurora, Ind., sailed around season points leader Tom Drane on the outside in the final turn to prevail in a thriller. Drane had led nearly the entire race, taking over the top spot on lap two. Brunner and Chase Saathoff gradually cut into the lead over the final laps and Brunner was able to make the big move coming out of turn four coming to the checkered flag to win by .069 of a second. Saathoff was right behind in third. The race went for six minutes, plus two laps. Brunner made the most of the allotted time and distance. "It feels amazing. I feel like I got about 300 pounds lifted off my chest," Brunner said of his first win of 2025. "I knew I could get it done. We were missing the little things and I think it was a lot mentally for myself. "Man, this facility is awesome. These fans are awesome. This experience at Lucas Oil Speedway has been awesome and sticking around to watch us do our thing. I couldn't have picked out more of a dogfight for that one. I had to be really patient." Points leader Bauman prevails in AFT Super Twins: Briar Bauman of Salinas, Calif., led all the way to earn his fifth Super Twins victory of the season as he held off a late-race charge from Dallas Daniels by .329 seconds. Bauman took the lead with Brandon Robinson running second in the early going. Bauman led Davis Fisher by 1.33 seconds at the halfway timed mark at four minutes before Daniels rolled into the runner-up spot and began to cut into the lead. But Daniels wasn't able to reel him in for the last-lap pass. Fisher held on for third, nearly three seconds behind Bauman. "I have a great team. We're gonna keep chipping at it," said Bauman, adding "that got a little too lose for comfort" at the finish. "We started on the third row and a second place is like a win tonight," Daniels said. "The track kind of came to us."

Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: 4 State Dirt Series is a fit for points leader Crigler, rookie contender Tiger
WHEATLAND, MO. (July 16, 2025) - Sawyer Crigler wants to forge his own way in the dirt Late Model racing world as his dad, long-time regional racer Scott Criger, continues to enjoy success in the sport. The 4 State Dirt Late Model Series has been the younger Crigler's path. "To me it's the best traveling series out there for the regional guy who doesn't want to break the bank," Sawyer Crigler said. "We're on a super hard tire that we're not allowed to groove or sipe. I put on a fresh set at the beginning of the year and I've run the same tire all year. I have eight races on them now and last week I put on a new right rear for the first time." One of Crigler's four series wins in 2025 came at Lucas Oil Speedway back in March. The 4 State points leader, out of Alton, Mo., looks to make it 2-for-2 on Saturday night when the 4 State Late Models headline Horton Supply Company Veterans and Military Appreciation Night at the races. All veterans and military personnel with ID will be admitted free with ID. The 4 State Dirt Series pays $1,250-to-win the feature and $400-to-start the main event. Other classes in action will be the Arctic Food Equipment Modifieds, O'Reilly Auto Parts Stock Cars and the Clear Creek Golf Car B-Mods. Sawyer Crigler, 24, grew up around the sport and found success driving Modifieds as a teenager, with track championships in the B Mod and Modified divisions at Legit Speedway in West Plains. He climbed behind the wheel of a Late Model in 2019 and hasn't looked back - as his dad continues to excel with multiple wins this season in open competition. "I feel Late Models are the top of the food chain as far as dirt-track racing. It's been a lifelong goal to be able to drive one and be successful," Sawyer Crigler said. Winning the 4 State championship is Sawyer's goal this season after narrowly missing it a year ago. He wound up third, just eight points behind series champ Dustin Atkinson and four behind runner-up Jace Parmley. "I blew up a motor at Tri-State and that pretty well sunk my ship for the season," Crigler said of last season. "I had a really good late part of the season, and got close, but it wasn't enough to get it done. That's the main goal right now, to win that deal. I haven't raced a lot of super shows because I've been focused on that." Crigler, who is 70 points in front of Joey Smith of West Plains in the series chase, said the win at Lucas Oil Speedway in March was only his third time to compete at Wheatland. "We went there in a B-Mod probably about four years ago and about three years ago I raced my dad's Late Model in a weekly series race," he said. "We didn't run very good. The next time there was the beginning of this year. "The track, best I can remember, was really slick and it really cleaned up around the bottom. I really wasn't tested at all," he added. Tiger enjoys rookie 4 State season: Another driver looking forward to coming back to Wheatland on Saturday is Dustin Tiger of West Plains. Tiger, 27, leads the 4 State Rookie of the Year standings and is third overall in points, 160 behind Crigler. Just like Crigler, Tiger said the 4 State has been a perfect proving ground for him to break into Late Model racing after spending several years campaigning Modifieds. "I ran a Modified the last three years and with Legit Speedway being closed last year I was running by myself at Flippin (Arkansas)," Tiger said. He noted that his brother-in-law, Austin Vincent, was racing on the Comp Cams Late Model series. but he wasn't budgeted to join him there. Instead, Tiger and his family have made the 4 State Series their traveling home and it's gone well. He picked up his first Late Model feature win at Lakeside Speedway on June 20th and has four top-five finishes in eight events. "I'm definitely happy with my first year in a Late Model. It's gone really good," Tiger said, adding that the camaraderie has been excellent as well. "Everyone with the series has been really nice. If you have an idea, they will value your opinion," Tiger said, adding that the competitors are "cool guys and fun to talk to. It's fun to race with their newer format this year where we qualify. It's been really good racing this year." Tiger is looking to improve upon his seventh-place finish at Lucas Oil Speedway on his first visit. Each time he takes the Late Model out it's a learning experience. "That was my first time with the 4 State rules, with their shocks and tires," he said. "I was pretty content with that. I like Lucas. It gets slick and smooth and that's of in my wheelhouse. I'm looking forward to coming back and hopefully get a podium or a win." Grandstands open at 4 p.m. Saturday with hot laps at 6:30 and racing to follow.
