  Sexton Gatlin Racing Makes Indiana Debut This Week

  Lakeside, CA - June 1, 2025 — For the first time in their careers, Brent Sexton and his son Grant will be racing in Indiana this week. The Lakeside, California-based Sexton Gatlin Racing (SGR) team is set to compete in six consecutive nights of sprint car action as part of Indiana Midget Week. The series kicks off at the cozy confines of Circle City Raceway in Indianapolis. Brent, 52, and Grant, 20, are well-known names in lightning sprint car circles. Brent is a three-time lightning sprint champion, earning California Lightning Sprint Car Series titles in 1999 and 2008, and capturing the POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprint Car Series championship in 2022. The latter came a year after Grant claimed the same title in 2021. In 2023, the father-son duo began shifting their focus to the high-powered 410 sprint cars in the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series. That year, Grant, then 19, earned Rookie of the Year honors, while Brent finished third in the same category in 2024. Over the past two years, SGR has adopted a "pick and choose" approach to their race schedule, and 2025 has followed suit. Brent has competed in seven events so far—five with the Ultimate Sprint Car Series (USCS) and two with USAC/CRA. His best finish to date is a fifth-place showing at Ocean Speedway with USCS on March 28. Grant has made five starts this season—three in USCS and two in USAC/CRA. His top result came at Ventura Raceway on March 8, where he finished eighth in a USCS event. "A good buddy of mine, Mark Deskovick, moved out there (Indiana) from Ramona," Sexton answered when asked why they are headed to Indiana. "He always said we should come out to visit and see what it is all about. It has been a bucket list thing, and now we are in a position to do it." "I would love to make A mains more than anything," Sexton continued. "Being a first timer, just seeing the tracks we have always dreamed about is a big deal. I am looking forward to seeing all of them. We begin at Circle City and finish at Kokomo. I cannot wait." In preparation for Indiana Midget Week, the Sextons consulted with Anaheim native and Indiana transplant Jake Swanson. Swanson shared that post-race car prep typically happens late at night due to the intense Midwest humidity. Taking his advice, the SGR team plans to service their cars in hotel parking lots after races, ensuring they rest during the day and stay cool before hitting the track each evening. Fans unable to attend Indiana Midget Week in person can catch all the action live with a Flo Racing subscription. For more details, visit FloRacing.com.

  NARC SPRINT CARS HEAD TO CHICO ON SATURDAY FOR THE DAVID TARTER MEMORIAL

  (6/2/25 - Andrew Kunas) Chico, CA ... A busy stretch for the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series continues this Saturday with the 12th running of the David Tarter Memorial at Silver Dollar Speedway. Saturday's show, NARC's second and final visit to the Chico ¼-mile this season, honors the memory of Tarter, who died at the age of 30 in 2012 when a freak accident in the pit area took his life. The first David Tarter Memorial was run in 2013, won by Oroville's Sean Becker, and the event has since become a staple at Silver Dollar Speedway, where Tarter was a regular participant and former track rookie of the year. Saturday's 35-lap main event will pay $5,035 to win. Reigning NARC champion Justin Sanders of Aromas won last year's David Tarter Memorial on his way to the title and is expected to be one of the favorites as he was also a winner of the thrilling Mini-Gold Cup in April aboard the Mittry Motorsports No. 2x. Dominic Gorden of Clovis is coming off a big win in last Saturday's Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial at Placerville Speedway. Gorden finished 16th in April's Mini-Gold Cup, but Gorden and the Fortitude Driver Development No. 10 team is hoping his second NARC victory serves as a springboard and creates momentum for the young driver going forward. Of the 11 prior times the David Tarter Memorial has been run, former NARC champion Kyle Hirst has the most victories in the event with five checkered flags. Sanders is the only other multi-time winner of the race. WHO TO WATCH Tanner Holmes and the Tarlton Motorsports No. 21T team have seen success together this season, including one NARC victory at the Morrie Williams Memorial, but Saturday's event will be their last together for a time as Holmes will shortly return to his family's no. 18T. At that point, Australian star James McFadden will jump into the Tarlton car for the next several weeks starting with next week's Fastest Five Days in Motorsports. Holmes nearly won the Mini-Gold Cup in a thrilling finish, narrowly losing out to Sanders. Returning to Chico this weekend, the Holmes and Tarlton team are hoping to improve by one spot to close out their first run together. Shane Golobic is another driver who has had success at Silver Dollar Speedway over the years. The Fremont driver has finished in the Top 10 in each regular NARC feature this season and that includes three podium finishes. Coming off a runner-up finish in the Dave Bradway Jr Memorial, Golobic is a driver due for another NARC victory. Other drivers expected to compete this weekend include former series champion DJ Netto from Hanford, Oregon's Tyler Thompson, Fresno drivers Dominic Scelzi and Mariah Ede, Templeton's Kaleb Montgomery, Oroville's Sean Becker, Campbell's Bud Kaeding, Lemoore's Gauge Garcia, Easton's Caeden Steele, Benicia's Billy Aton, Lincoln's Tanner Carrick and many more. FAN INFO Silver Dollar Speedway is located at the Silver Dollar Fair on 2343 Fair St in Chico. BCRA Lightning sprints will be racing also. Tickets are $30 for adults, while seniors 65+ and juniors 13-17 are in for $25. Kids 12 and under are in for free. Silver Dollar Speedway will also be racing sprint cars on Friday night, giving fans two nights of racing action this weekend. ABOUT NARC The Northern Auto Racing Club is the premier 410-winged sprint car series in the western United States.

  FORSBERG FLASHES TO PLACERVILLE SPEEDWAY VICTORY

  Placerville, CA…Andy Forsberg and Chance Grasty entertained the Placerville Speedway faithful on Saturday night, which ultimately saw the 10-time track champion come out on top to earn another victory on the famed red clay. Along with Forsberg, also scoring wins on Anrak Night at the Races were Tyler Lightfoot with the Kings Meats Ltd. Late Models, Ryan Peter with the Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks and Hunter Kinney with the BCRA Lightning Sprints. The 25-lap Thompson's Winged 360 Sprint Car feature began with young Austin Wood leading the opening lap, before Forsberg rocketed by to take over the top spot. Track conditions proved to be spot on for the main event, as cars raced high and low on the bullring. Wood attempted to keep pace with the leader but soon had to deal with ADCO Driveline Fast Qualifier Chance Grasty following a restart with 10 circuits complete. Grasty slipped to his inside and took over second on lap 11. At one point the top three began to bunch up ever so slightly, only to see a caution flag wave to create a single file restart. When getting back underway Grasty went to work on the leader and the duo proceeded to fight back and forth with the crowd coming to its feet. Grasty officially led lap 18, but Forsberg would slice back by leading the following circuit. The Auburn veteran hung tough and went on to take the Darin Stahl checkered flag for his 74th career Sprint Car triumph at Placerville. Grasty, Tony Gomes, Justyn Cox and 16th starting Colby Copeland completed the top five. Filling out the remainder of the top 10 were Shane Hopkins, Wood, Steven Kent, Austin Torgerson and Cole Schroeder. The Kings Meats Ltd. Late Models put on an intriguing, non-stop, 20 lap main event on Saturday evening. Placerville's Tyler Lightfoot moved out front early and held the field at bay for much of the contest. Reigning track champion Anthony Slaney was certainly the show in the feature as he blasted by cars on the high scary side. He took over third on lap seven and then second a few circuits later. Slaney quickly reeled in the leader and hounded his rear until hopping the cushion and then pulling off with four laps remaining. Lightfoot then had a large advantage and brought home his sixth career Placerville Speedway Late Model victory. Matt Davis, Rod Oliver, Matt Micheli and Shawn DeForest followed him across the line. The Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks had another thrilling conclusion to their main event on Anrak Night. Colton Arbogast and Michael Murphy led the first couple laps until Rio Linda's Ryan Peter showed his muscle and grabbed the lead on lap three. Peter had captured the previous two events and was looking to make it three in a row at Placerville Speedway. Six-time track champion Nick Baldwin began making his way through the pack, taking over third just after the halfway point. With a few laps remaining Baldwin charged into second and began to come after the leader. Just like at the Tilford Tribute in April, it was Peter and Baldwin coming down to the wire. The pair battled for the win off the final corner, which saw Peter edge him by half a car length for the three-peat. Baldwin, Kevin Jinkerson, Michael Murphy and Tyler Lightfoot completed the top five. Citrus Heights driver Hunter Kinney survived numerous restarts to claim his second straight win at Placerville with the BCRA Lightning Sprints. Greg Dennett, Dakota Albright, Matt Land and Marshall Sexton were next in line. Placerville Speedway is dark the next two weeks before resuming things with a big double header on May 30th and 31st. The Friday portion will showcase the Sprint Car Challenge Tour contesting the Davy Thomas Memorial, while Saturday's finale is the annual Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial with the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series.

  ANTIOCH SPEEDWAY HOSTS THE NARC SPRINT CARS FOR THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY CLASH

  (5/5/25 -Andrew Kunas) Antioch, CA ... After some unscheduled time off thanks to Mother Nature, the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series gets back to action this Saturday, May 10th, with the Contra Costa County Clash at Antioch Speedway. Saturday's event is the first of two NARC events scheduled at the ¼-mile clay oval this year, the other being on October 11th. Saturday's show is one of the rare opportunities fans in Antioch have to watch the 900-plus horsepower winged sprint cars in action. Former series champion D.J. Netto, aboard the Netto Ag No. 88N, goes into the event with a five-point advantage over Templeton's Kaleb Montgomery. Netto won the NARC season opener March 8th at Stockton Dirt Track and backed that up with a fourth place run at the Mini-Gold Cup on April 12th at Silver Dollar Speedway. The energetic young Montgomery, with a pair of top five finishes in different cars, is knocking on the door of his first 410 sprint car victory. Veteran racer Shane Golobic sits two points back of Montgomery in third place. Justin Sanders, winner of last month's Mini-Gold Cup, was the winner in last year's Contra Costa County Clash at Antioch Speedway, and it was the first of his series leading seven wins on his way to a NARC championship in 2024. WHO TO WATCH Shane Golobic, from Fremont, is one to be watched on Saturday. Golobic finished second to Sanders at Antioch last year. This season, Golobic has been competitive everywhere he has raced, having picked up wins in sprint cars in non-NARC competition and in a midget recently. Driving the Matt Wood Racing No. 17w, Golobic figures to be one of the favorites. Golobic has 16 NARC victories to his credit. Two-time NARC "King of the West" Dominic Scelzi of Fresno is another driver to watch on Saturday. Scelzi, a winner of 23 NARC main events in his career, had problems in last year's Contra Costa County Clash, but in 2023 he was victorious at Antioch. The charismatic fan favorite looks to add another Antioch triumph to his resume on Saturday aboard the Gary Scelzi Motorsports No. 41. Dylan Bloomfield of Oakley could be considered a dark horse on Saturday. The young driver of the Vertullo Racing No. 83v finished third in last year's race at Antioch, and a couple other times last season he was in contention for his first NARC victory. Saturday's race could be another opportunity for Bloomfield to finally break through. A full field of sprint car teams are expected to fill the pit area. Other drivers expected to compete include Roseville's Sean Becker and Ryan Bernal, Tanner Carrick of Lincoln, Clovis drivers Dominic Gorden and Mariah Ede, Bud Kaeding of Campbell, Tyler Thompson from Oregon, Lemoore's Caeden Steele, Gauge Garcia of Fresno, Benicia's Billy Aton, Windsors John Clark, and many more. FAN INFO Antioch Speedway is located at 1201 W 10th Street in town near Hwy 4.

  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. Placerville Speedway Details: Opened in 1965, Placerville Speedway is located on the El Dorado County Fairgrounds (100 Placerville Drive, Placerville, CA). Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with on-track action beginning at 5:15 p.m. both nights.

  NARC SPRINT CAR TEAMS HEAD TO CHICO IN PURSUIT OF $10,000 MINI GOLD CUP WINNER CHECK

  (4/7/25 - Andrew Kunas) Chico, CA ... The first big money race of the season has arrived for the NARC 410 sprint cars, with the prestigious Mini Gold Cup happening this Saturday, April 12th at Silver Dollar Speedway. Saturday's winner will score NARC's first five-figure payday of 2025, taking home $10,000 for their efforts. First run in 1987, the Mini Gold Cup was a longtime staple on the Northern California sprint car schedule, bringing fans and competitors to the challenging ¼-mile clay oval in Chico. Several editions over the years saw the event on the World of Outlaws schedule, but it has otherwise been a NARC event. After a hiatus of a few years that started with the COVID-19 plagued 2020 season, the SLC Promotions team brought the beloved event back a couple of years ago. Regardless of sanction, the Mini Gold Cup has long been a premier season event sprint car fans on the West Coast. Cole Macedo won last year's Mini Gold Cup after leader Ryan Robinson crashed on the final lap. It was Macedo's second Mini Gold Cup win, that one coming aboard the Tarlton Motorsports No. 21. With Macedo now on the World of Outlaws tour, the Tarlton team has been going with Jacksonville, Oregon standout Tanner Holmes. The pairing has already found success, winning an earlier race at Silver Dollar Speedway and then turning into multiple Top 5 finishes with High Limit Racing during their March swing through California. That has many fans pointing at Holmes as one of the favorites on Saturday. Hanford's D.J. Netto, with his win in last month's NARC season opener at the Stockton Dirt Track, has the points lead aboard the Netto Ag No. 88n going into the weekend with a four-point advantage over Fremont's Shane Golobic. Netto, a former NARC champion, will be one to watch, as he won twice in other 410 sprint car competition at Silver Dollar Speedway last year, including the Friday night Mini Gold Cup Tune-Up. Golobic also already is a winner in Chico this season in non-NARC competition, winning the night before Holmes did. Golobic and the Matt Wood Racing No. 17w are also hoping that translates to NARC success at the Mini Gold Cup on Saturday. In the Mini Gold Cup record books, National Sprint Car Hall of Famer Brent Kaeding leads everyone with four total Mini Gold Cup triumphs, taking checkered flags in 1991, 1993, 1996 and 2001. A pair of World of Outlaws champions, Jason Meyers, and Donny Schatz each have three wins in the prestigious race. WHO TO WATCH One other driver who will be watched is reigning NARC champion Justin Sanders of Aromas. The 2024 "King of the West" won the David Tarter Memorial last June when the NARC 410 sprint cars last tackled Silver Dollar Speedway, one of his seven NARC wins en route to the series championship. Sanders and the Mittry Motorsports No. 2x are looking at the Mini Gold Cup as the perfect opportunity to bounce back after a disappointing month of March. Never one to be counted out at Silver Dollar Speedway, San Jose's Tim Kaeding is always one to keep an eye on aboard the Williams Motorsports No. 0. A two-time "King of the West" and one of NARC's all-time winningest drivers with 74 victories, Kaeding has won several big races in Chico over the years, and that includes two Mini Gold Cups, those wins coming in 2005 and 2007. Templeton driver Kaleb Montgomery gave a strong performance at the Salute to Leroy Van Conett at Stockton on March 8th, driving from 15th to finish 4th in the NARC season opener. He later turned more heads by making the dash and finishing fifth in a High Limit Racing main event at Perris Auto Speedway. After this prior weekend's cancelations, fans remain eager to see what the young driver has ahead of him as he pursues his first NARC victory aboard the Montgomery Racing No. 3. A full field of sprint car teams are expected to fill the pit area. Other drivers expected to compete on Friday night include Roseville's Sean Becker, Oakley's Dylan Bloomfield, Tanner Carrick of Lincoln, Clovis drivers Dominic Gorden and Mariah Ede, Bud Kaeding of Campbell, Arizona driver Ashton Torgerson, Landon Brooks from Rio Oso, Tyler Thompson from Oregon, Lemoore's Caeden Steele, Gauge Garcia of Fresno, Benicia's Billy Aton and many more. FAN INFO Front gates open at 4:00 pm, with hot laps at 5:30 pm and qualifying to follow at 6:00 pm. Racing is scheduled to start at 6:45 pm. BCRA lightning sprints are also scheduled to compete. As a bonus for fans, Silver Dollar Speedway is also racing on Friday night, April 11th, with 410 sprint cars in action as a tune-up for Saturday's $10,000 to win Mini Gold Cup. Fans who cannot make it in person can watch live on www.floracing.com. FloRacing livestreams all NARC shows.

  Dominic Gorden, Shane Golobic, Hunter Kinney and Ryan Peter score Placerville wins

  Placerville, CA…Dominic Gorden got by Andy Forsberg on lap two and led the remaining distance to snag his second career Thompson's Winged Sprint Car triumph at Placerville Speedway on Saturday. Gorden's win came aboard the familiar Fortitude Driver Development/ Silva's Natural Beef No. 10 mount. He was joined in victory lane by Shane Golobic with the BCRA/WMR/USAC Midgets, Hunter Kinney with the BCRA Lightning Sprints and Ryan Peter with the Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks. Opening night winner Andy Forsberg led the initial lap of the Thompson's Family of Dealerships Winged Sprint Car feature on Saturday. Dominic Gorden wasted little time blasting his way into the top spot however, and after that he kept the 20-car field at bay. Gorden, who earned his first career Placerville Speedway win last August during the Forni-Humphreys Classic, motored off to grab the checkered flag after 25-laps of racing. Forsberg brought home a runner-up finish while fending off youngster Austin Wood during the later stages of the contest. Wood crossed the stripe in third, followed by Max Mittry and Tony Gomes in the top five. The race for second through fifth provided some of the most entertainment during the main event. Rounding out the top 10 were Chance Grasty, Josh Young, Shane Hopkins, Joey Ancona and Tanner Carrick. A healthy 35 car field was in action for the "Prospectors Pursuit" on Saturday. Jodie Robinson began the evening by earning the ADCO Driveline & Custom Exhaust Fast Time Award with a blistering lap of 10.581. Shane Golobic prevailed in Saturday night's inaugural running of the new BCRA/WMR California Super Series, topping a 25-car turnout in the event co-sanctioned by the USAC Avanti Windows & Doors Western States Midgets. TJ Smith took the lead into turn one with Golobic sliding into second. 2024 BCRA Midget champion Caden Sarale of Stockton drove underneath Broedy Graham of Bakersfield for third on the second lap down the backstretch. Smith led Golobic into lapped traffic before a red flag for Graham flipping in turn one. 15-year-old Jett Yantis of Bakersfield challenged Sarale for third on the restart. Golobic drove to the inside of Smith to challenge for the lead on lap 11 but was unable to make the pass down the backstretch. Dale Johnston of Olivehurst flipped in turn one for the next stoppage on lap 13. Golobic charged to the outside of Smith on the restart. He led by a nose down the front stretch to lead lap 14, then completed the pass on lap 15 in turn 4. Golobic sailed to a three second advantage to win the inaugural race for the BCRA/WMR Super Series, co-sanctioned by USAC. Citrus Heights racer Hunter Kinney put on a clinic with the Bay Cities Racing Association Lightning Sprints on Saturday. Kinney was dominant aboard the Savage Racing No. 3f during the program and led every lap en route to the win. Defending series champion Greg Dennett tallied a runner up finish ahead of Jake Morgan, Dakota Albright and Matt Land. Just like Kinney, Rio Linda's Ryan Peter was ultra impressive with the Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks at the "Prospectors Pursuit." Tommy Sturgeon led the opening circuit until Peter charged by for the top spot on lap two. He had his way with things up front, as six-time track champion Nick Baldwin moved his way forward. Baldwin got into second with 14 laps complete and looked to challenge the leader. Peter was calm, cool and collected up front though, and crossed the Ron Stahl checkered flag for his fourth career Pure Stock victory at Placerville Speedway. Baldwin, Jason Palmer, Kevin Jinkerson and Tyler Lightfoot completed the top five. Placerville Speedway continues its 60th anniversary season this coming Saturday April 12th with the "Tilford Tribute" race. On hand will be the Kings Meats Ltd. Late Models, the Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks, the Mountain Democrat Mini Trucks and the West Coast Pro Stocks.

  Prospectors Pursuit brings Winged Sprint Cars, Midgets, Lightning Sprints and Pure Stocks to Placerville

  Placerville, CA…The Berco Redwood championship season continues this Saturday at Placerville Speedway with an exciting trio of Open Wheel divisions being joined by the Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks. After hosting the Sprint Car Challenge Tour last weekend, the El Dorado County Fairgrounds bullring is set to resume the Berco Redwood/ Hoosier Tire/ Coors Light championship point season at the "Prospectors Pursuit." The Thompson's Family of Dealerships Winged 360 Sprint Cars are ready for their second point race of the season on Saturday. Auburn's Andy Forsberg, the 10-time track champ, picked up his 73rd Winged 360 victory at the track on opening night. It turned out to be a close battle to the finish between himself and 15-year-old Austin Wood of Sacramento. Both Forsberg and Wood ran in the top five with SCCT last week and figure to be among the front runners at the Prospectors Pursuit. Lincoln's Tanner Carrick, Suisun City's Chance Grasty and Redding's Max Mittry finished third through fifth respectively at the opener two weeks ago. The Red Hawk Resort + Casino Pure Stocks also contest their second point race of 2025 on Saturday. Oakley's Nick Baldwin showed that he is still the man to beat on opening night by snagging his 33rd career Placerville triumph. Diamond Springs' Kevin Jinkerson has been a mark of consistency for the last several years and ran second on opening night ahead of Tommy Sturgeon, Wayne Trimble and Tyler Lightfoot. Saturday's Prospector Pursuit marks the debut race for the new California Super Series featuring the Bay Cities Racing Association and Western Midget Racing. Adding to the excitement will be the USAC Western States Midgets, as all three of the Midget organizations in the Golden State take part in a "Nor-Cal Challenge." Rounding out the card will be the BCRA Lightning Sprints, who also open their 2025 campaign. Livermore's Greg Dennet captured three wins last season en route to the title.
