- Jedrjezek Defeats All Challengers for GLSS Win at Limaland
Lima, OH - Limaland Motorsports Park has treated Kasey Jedrjezek good and bad in the 2025 season. Friday night, the Lagrange, Ohio native got all the right breaks and collected his second win with the Ohio CAT Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP of the season. Alongside Corbin Gurley, Jedrzejek led the 20 car field to the green flag on a version of Limaland that not many are used to; one that was pony up, full of character, and different on both ends. The battle to lead the first lap was intense as Jedrjezek, Gurley, and Chase Dunham went three wide down the backstretch. At the exit of turn four, it was Gurley and Jedrjezek still side-by-side for the lead. The pair made slight contact as Jedrjezek jumped out to the point. The first caution of the night flew five laps in when Frank Neil spun around entering turn one after jumping over the cushion. On the restart, Jedrjezek continued to lead as Dustin Daggett applied pressure on the podium while Gurley continued to try and stop the free fall from second. Near the halfway point of the race, Dunham found the quick way around Limaland, maintaining his gap to Jedrjezek in one and two, but gaining plenty of ground in three and four on the extreme top of the race track while Jedrjezek navigated lapped traffic. With six laps to go, Dunham had caught Jedrjezek and was working to make a pass to his outside off turn four. Dunham's car bounced into the front stretch wall and caught the crossover opening with the right front tire, ripping the front end out of his No.66, bringing his night to an end. In the final six rotations, Gurley drove his way back into the second spot, turning his fastest lap of the race with just four laps to go using a similar line that Dunham was using to try and take the lead. Gurley's drive to the front fell nine-tenths of a second short of his first win of the season. "I've gotta thank my guys, they gave me a great car all night," Jedrjezek said in victory lane. "We had a rough night last night, but this is a good way to rebound." The next event for the Ohio CAT Great Lakes Super Sprint is Saturday, July 6th for the quarter-mile special at Millstream Speedway alongside the Great Lakes Traditional Sprints and Dirt Trucks. Fans who can't make the trip can catch the action live at www.GreatLakesSprints.Tv. Kasey Jedrjezek was the Ti22 Performance Fast Qualifier. Kasey Jedrjezek won Engler Machine & Tool Heat Race Number One Corbin Gurley won Howard Johnson of Lima Heat Race Number Two. Chase Dunham won Miami Paint Heat Race Number Three. Gregg Dalman was the Operating Engineers 324 Hard Charger advancing five spots.

- Tripleheader Weekend on Tap for Great Lakes Super Sprints
Merrill, MI - The Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP are geared up for a tripleheader weekend as summer unofficially begins with Memorial Day Weekend. The best 360 sprint car drivers in the Midwest will converge on Limaland Motorsports Park Friday, Millstream Speedway Saturday, and Waynesfield Raceway Park on Sunday. The third appearance this season at Limaland Motorsports Park opens the door for someone to try and take down the three-time and defending GLSS Champion, Max Stambaugh. The Smith Motorsports No.71H found Victory Lane in dominating fashion in the first two visits of the season after starting on the front row and leading every lap. Dustin Daggett and Mike Keegan eyed Stambaugh in the May 2nd contest, while Jared Horstman and Chase Dunham chased Stambaugh during last Friday night's contest. Millstream Speedway is set to host the Ohio CAT Great Lakes Super Sprints on Saturday night for the first race in Findlay, Ohio this season. On the historic 4/10ths mile oval, GLSS teams will try to navigate the fast track for just the second time in history. In October of 2024, Zane DeVault launched from the pole in his Lane Racing No.44 alongside Phil Gressman. DeVault went on to hold off Kasey Jedrzejek and Van Gurley, Jr for the win. Alongside GLSS on Saturday, the Great Lakes Traditional Sprints Presented by MacAllister CAT will also be in action - this will be the first time GLTS has contested an event on the 4/10ths mile at Millstream. Ricky Lewis held off Korbyn Hayslett in August of 2024 on the inside track for the first GLTS win at Millstream. Sunday, "The Field of Speed" welcomes GLSS for the first time in 2025. Waynesfield Raceway Park hosts the first event of the 2025 season on Sunday with the high-flying GLSS alongside DIRTcar UMP Modifieds and Dirt Pro Trucks. In three visits last season, Jedrzejek outdualed Dustin Daggett for the win in July, Gressman found victory lane in August, and Nate Dussel went to GLSS Victory Lane in October. Advanced tickets for Saturday and Sunday's shows are available online at GreatLakesSuperSprints.com. Fans who can't make the trip to the track can catch the action all weekend long online at GreatLakesSprints.Tv. For more information on the Great Lakes Super Sprints, visit www.GreatLakesSprints.com.

- Horstman hangs on for GLSS win at I-96, Ricky Lewis grabs GLTS checkers
After two aborted starts resulting in red flags, Jared Horstman was able to hold off Scotty Thiel and won the 25 lap Great Lakes Super Sprints feature at I-96 Speedway Friday night.
- I-96 Speedway Next for GLSS; Doubleheader weekend for GLTS Opener
Lake Odessa, MI - The Michigan CAT Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP (GLSS) are back in Michigan Friday night, returning to I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, MI for a Breast Cancer Awareness/Mother's Day Weekend that also features the Great Lakes Traditional Sprints Presented by MacAllister CAT as they open the 2025 season with a doubleheader that also features a stop in Quincy, MI at Butler Motor Speedway. The fourth race for GLSS in as many weeks takes teams back to one of the fastest tracks on the circuit for the second time this season. In the first visit on April 25th, Scotty Thiel set fast time with a 13.813 as one of the later cars to take time. Mike Keegan, Jared Horstman, and Max Stambaugh grabbed heat race wins before Stambaugh went on to lead flag-to-flag for his first win of the season. Stambaugh doubled up his 2025 win total by grabbing another Friday night win at Limaland Motorsports Park on May 2nd. Thanks to his back-to-back wins, Max Stambaugh now holds a slim two-point advantage in the GLSS Tour Points standings over Jared Horstman and Dustin Daggett. However, in the Michigan CAT Division, a DNF to open the season keeps Hortsman out front with a 43 point advantage over Daggett and Stambaugh. Horstman was on the move in the last race at I-96, taking second at the line after starting fifth. He was also credited as the Hard Charger at Limaland Motorsports Park. The evening at I-96 will also feature the start of the 2025 season for GLTS. Steve Irwin is expected to return after another championship-winning season with GLTS in 2024. The Fenton, MI native grabbed one win last year in the season opener at Butler Motor Speedway before finishing in the top 10 in the rest of his starts, and top five in all but one. Brian Ruhlman and Max Frank, two of the historic thorns in Irwin's side, are also expected to unload their non-wing 410s on Friday night. Last season, Max Frank was the one to beat with three feature wins, one of just two drivers to win multiple times with GLTS. Frank found victory lane at Tri City Motor Speedway and Silver Bullet Speedway twice. Ricky Lewis was the other driver who took multiple trips to GLTS victory lane with a win at Waynesfield Raceway Park and Millstream Speedway. The weekend begins on Friday, May 9th at I-96 Speedway for both GLSS & GLTS. Advanced tickets are available at GreatLakesSprints.com. Gates open at 5:00 PM with racing set to begin at 8:00 PM. Fans who can't make the trip Friday night can catch all the action live at GreatLakesSprints.Tv. Saturday, the Great Lakes Traditional Sprints continue to Butler Motor Speedway alongside Winged 410 Sprint Cars and Compacts. Gates open at 4:00 PM with racing set to begin at 7:30 PM.
