- 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."

- Rice Wins Cowboy Classic on Friday Night at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO (May 22, 2026) - Josh Rice of Crittenden, Kentucky led the final six laps Friday night to capture the Cowboy Classic at Lucas Oil Speedway, earning his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of the 2026 season. Rice, the current O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year points leader, collected $10,000 for his third career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory. Garrett Alberson, who was forced to a backup car after flipping while leading his heat race, finished second. Chris Ferguson stormed from the 14th starting position to take the lead on lap eight and ultimately rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Current Midwest Sheet Metal championship points leader Hudson O'Neal finished fourth, while Brandon Overton completed the top five. Overton led the opening seven laps of the 45-lap feature, which had been postponed 24 hours due to Thursday night rain. Ferguson then charged from the outside of row seven to the lead in just eight laps and appeared poised for victory after pacing the field for the next 25 circuits. Alberson took command on lap 33, setting up a thrilling three-car battle between Alberson, Ferguson, and Rice. Working the bottom groove to perfection, Rice surged past both drivers on lap 40 and held on the rest of the way for the victory. Rice's previous two Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series wins both came at his home track, Florence Speedway, where he is a two-time Ralph Latham Memorial winner. Friday's triumph came in his first-ever start at Lucas Oil Speedway. "I can't thank James Ratliff enough for sticking with me," Rice said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "I was doubting myself and wondering what in the world I had done. We tried some things Thursday, and this car has been so good. We just missed it on tires in that first race, and I thought we'd be much better than we were." "This place is awesome. If you didn't enjoy that race, you probably need to go home because that was a good one. Coming here, I didn't think this was a place we could win at - I just wanted to survive the weekend. I definitely didn't think my first Longhorn win would come in a Lucas Oil race." Alberson overcame a difficult night and still put himself in position to contend for the win. "I really wanted that one bad," Alberson said. "It's been a long day, and I made too many mistakes there late and knocked the spoiler off. But my dad always taught us to keep a good attitude. The first time I crashed a race car, they told me to get right back in another one. That's just racing." Ferguson, who earlier in the evening finished second to Jonathan Davenport in the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson feature, led a race-high 25 laps before fading late. "This race car was awesome," Ferguson said. "We broke some stuff there at the end and just couldn't race with those guys the last couple laps. But it was definitely 'cowboy up' tonight, and honestly I had a blast. We passed a lot of really good cars. Congrats to Josh and Garrett - that was a fun race." Rice's winning James, Jennifer, and Justin Ratliff/Ratliff Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and backed by Glenwood Electric, MC Tank, Rice Excavating and Plumbing, Chain Locker, MGL Auto Sales, Jessie Insurance Agency, Lonkard Construction, JRR Motor Sales, JRR Trucking, Berea Collision, Keltner Contracting, Sunoco Race Fuels, and Big Al's Guns and Outdoors. Completing the top ten were Jonathan Davenport, Dillon McCowan, Brian Shirley, Max Blair, and Brandon Sheppard.

- Rice, Davenport win Show-Me 100 preliminaries with Saturday finale next at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 22, 2026) - The best was saved for last on Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway as Josh Rice captured a wildly entertaining Cowboy Classic to conclude Night 2 of the 34th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging. Rice, leading contender for Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Rookie of the Year, took the lead with five laps to in the 45-lapper, which had been postponed due to rain on Thursday night. Earlier, Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga., led all 40 laps to win the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson as drivers earned points in both features toward the starting lineup for Saturday night's $75,000-to-win, 100-lap feature. "It's cool," Rice said in victory lane. "That has to be a race of the year candidate. Man, that was awesome. I'm speechless, honestly. I did not think I was gonna show up here and be good. It's crazy. I can't thank everybody enough." Rice, 27, is making his first appearance at Lucas Oil Speedway. After setting fast qualifying time for the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson portion of the program he finished eight in that feature and is assured of starting near the front of Saturday's finale. In a race with three leaders on a track that third-place Chris Ferguson said was definitely "cowboy up," there was no lacking of action. Ferguson went from 14th at the start to the lead in just eight laps and led a race-high 25 laps. In a wild, three-way battle with the laps ticking away and cars bouncing about, Rice took the lead as Ferguson slipped and Garrett Alberson - who had quite the night himself - went into second. Alberson, of Las Cruces, N.M., destroyed his primary car in a wild flip in turn one while leading the first heat of the Gibson Tribute program. He unloaded a backup car and settled for 25th in that feature before refocusing after the wild ride for the Cowboy Classic feature. "Luckily my dad instilled in us good attitudes. One of the first days I ever drove a race car, I crashed the bejesus out of it and he told me I had to get back in another one. It's like get back on the horse, it's part of it." Davenport shredded a tire on lap 11 to bring out the caution. Alberson settled into second behind Ferguson after the restart, a second back Ferguson by lap 20 as Rice moved to third. By lap 25, the top two had separated with Rice, Ricky Thornton Jr. and Hudson O'Neal battling for third. Meanwhile, local fans were cheering LOLMDS rookie Dillon McCowan of nearby Urbana. After taking a provisional and starting 25th, McCowan had charged to sixth just in front of Davenport, who was rallying from his early race flat. The yellow-flag parade continued with another on lap 30 as Clay Stuckey slowed with a right-rear issue. Rice had just taken over second with Alberson third with 15 to go. This time Ferguson couldn't hold off the pursuers as Alberson took advantage of the restart by sliding around Ferguson on lap 33. The leaders caught lapped traffic with five to go, darting and diving out of turn four with Rice emerging in front to complete lap 40. Rice, the leader of the series Rookie of the Year chase, took it home from there by beating Alberson by 2.4 seconds for his third LOLMDS feature win. "This place is awesome. If you didn't enjoy that, you need to go home," Rice said as fans cheered his victory lane interview. "Coming here I did not think this was gonna be a place ... I just wanted to get through it. I didn't think we'd be a contender." Ferguson, the 2022 Show-Me 100 winner, settled for third with O'Neal fourth, Overton fifth, Davenport sixth and McCowan seventh. "This race car was awesome. I hated that we broke some stuff and couldn't race with them guys the last couple of laps," Ferguson said. "I've got a lot of stuff to fix for tomorrow. I had a blast out there and passed a lot of good cars. Congrats to Josh and Garrett. I'm a little disappointed, but that was a fun race." The 13th annual Cowboy Classic honors the late Allen "Cowboy" Chancellor, long-time owner-promoter of the MLRA Late Model Series. Davenport rolls in Gibson Tribute: Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga., made quick work of the field in winning the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson, leading all 40 laps in an event that took only 13 minutes to complete. There was just one caution, on lap two. Davenport was unstoppable - as he so often is at Wheatland. "Set-up wise we were pretty close. I could run the top, the bottom and the middle," Davenport said after the $10,000 victory, the first of two features on the evening for the Late Models. Davenport set the pace from the start, with a lap two spin by Garrett Alberson briefly slowing the action. When the 40-lapper resumed, Davenport opened a 1.6-second lead over Chris Ferguson after just five laps and nearly two seconds by lap 10. Eighth-starting Brandon Overton moved to third by that point. Ferguson, of Mt. Holly, N.C., sliced the deficit to just under one second over the next five circuits as the leaders began to deal with lapped traffic. As the race continued a lengthy green-flag run, Davenport was able to maintain his margin by the mid point with Ferguson and Overton continuing to run 2-3 as 14th-starting Brandon Sheppard advanced into fourth. "We got held up there when we first caught lapped traffic because I didn't really know where to go," Davenport said. "Once I felt like I couldn't move around, then we got rolling pretty good." Sheppard grabbed third on lap 29, but Davenport was beginning to check out as he led Ferguson by 2.8 seconds with Sheppard another 1.2 behind Ferguson. Without a caution to give anyone else a chance, Davenport continued to pour it on. He wound up 3.66 seconds in front of Ferguson at the finish in taking his 11th victory at Lucas Oil Speedway since the spring of 2023 and 96th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. It was win No. 4 on the series this season. "This race track changed like five different times during that feature and I think it was about ready to change one more time," Davenport said. "I tried to miss the holes whenever I could. It had a little character to it, but what an awesome race track." Sheppard finished third with Overton fourth and Mason Oberkramer fifth. Seriers points leader and 2021 Show-Me 100 winner Hudson O'Neal was sixth. "The track had character and we weren't really ready for that," said Ferguson. "I was cowboy-ing up there a couple of times. But JD's so good here, he was kind of setting his own pace. It was hard to dodge the holes and also dodge the lapped cars. "I saw he was struggling with a couple of them and it kind of let me get close, then he got by them. I'm just tickled to be here." A total of 51 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series and 27 Hickamo Super Stocks drivers checked into the pits. The three-night event, which culminates with Saturday's $75,000-to-win, 100-lap main event, pays $10,000 to win the preliminary Late Model features. Drivers accumulate points on their finishes both nights to help set the lineup for Saturday night's finale. Rice was the Allstar Performance fast qualifier, with a time at 15.198 seconds out of Group A. Davenport paced Group B for the second straight night, at 15.257 seconds. The race honored Don and Billie Gibson, who started the Show-Me 100 in 1993 at their West Plains Motor Speedway. Schultz grabs Hickamo Super Stocks win: Terry Schultz of Sedalia led wire-to-wire in the 20-lap Hickamo Super Stocks feature, beating his teammate Blaine Ewing. "It was lucky we started up front because I think it was gonna be tricky to pass," Schultz said, noting his front row starting spot. After three cautions in the first nine laps, Schultz dominated the final half of the race. He pulled away to win by about five car lengths over Ewing with Mike Striegel holding off Johnny Fennewald for third. Finale on Saturday: Opening ceremonies are set for 6:45 p.m. Saturday with B-Mains and the Midwest Sheet Metal Challenge setting the final lineup for rthe $75,000-to-win 100-lap main event. O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars also will beon the program.

- Davenport Wins Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO (May 22, 2026) - Jonathan Davenport continued his dominance at Lucas Oil Speedway during the 2026 season, capturing the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson on Friday night at the "Diamond of Dirt Tracks." The three-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion remained undefeated at the Wheatland facility this season after sweeping the April events and adding another victory Friday night. The win marked Davenport's fourth LOLMDS triumph of 2026 and the 96th Series victory of his career. Chris Ferguson, the 2022 Show-Me 100 winner, moved into second on lap two and remained there the rest of the race, finishing more than three seconds behind Davenport in the $10,000 main event. Brandon Sheppard charged from the 14th starting position to round out the Big River Steel podium in third. Brandon Overton finished fourth, while Missouri driver Mason Oberkramer recorded the best LOLMDS finish of his career in fifth. Davenport, seeking his third career Show-Me 100 victory on Saturday night, led all 40 laps in the first of two feature events contested Friday after Thursday's rain-postponed Cowboy Classic was added to the schedule. "I think the track was really maneuverable," Davenport said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "It changed five different times during the feature, and I felt like it was about to change one more time near the end. Once the middle started rolling and those wet crumbs moved up toward the cushion, I thought the top might come back in." "The track had a lot of character to it, and we raced all over it. I got held up a little when I first caught traffic because I wasn't sure where to go, but once I figured out where I could move around, we got rolling pretty good." Ferguson, who started fourth, stayed within striking distance for much of the race but settled for second. "We went a little harder on tires than most people, and honestly I don't think we were fully ready for how much character the track had," Ferguson said. "JD is so good here. He could kind of set his own pace, but I tried to keep pressure on him whenever I could. He was probably the better car—I just struggled getting through traffic." Sheppard continued his recent momentum with another podium finish and now sits second in the championship standings behind Hudson O'Neal. "Our car was really good once we could move around and manage our tires," Sheppard said. "We've struggled more than we wanted to early in the night, but once the track slows down, our balance really comes to us. I'm still trying to figure out how to qualify fast here because it's definitely tricky." Davenport's winning Lance and Darla Landers/Double L Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and backed by Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging, Nutrien Ag Solutions, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, and Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas. Completing the top ten were Hudson O'Neal, Chase Junghans, Josh Rice, Brian Shirley, and Daniel Hilsabeck.

- Rain postpones Show-Me 100 opening feature until Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 21, 2026) - Mother Nature claimed the victory on opening night of the 34th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging at Lucas Oil Speedway. Rain began falling as the second B feature concluded and didn't relent for several hours. Thursday's 45-lap main event, in honor of the late Allen "Cowboy" Chancellor, a long-time owner and promoter of the MLRA, will conclude Friday night's regularly scheduled program. The revised schedule for the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson, founders of the Show-Me 100 at West Plains Motor Speedway, will find hot laps starting at 6 p.m., a half-hour earlier than originally scheduled. Qualifying and heats follow prior to B-Mains and the feature. The Hickamo Super Stocks also will be in action with the Cowboy Classic feature wrapping the action. A total of 51 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series drivers checked into the pits. The three-night event, which culminates with Saturday's $75,000-to-win, 100-lap main event, pays $10,000 to win the preliminary Late Model features. Drivers will accumulate points on their finishes both nights to help set the lineup for Saturday night's finale. Brandon Overton of Evans, Ga., was the Allstar Performance fast qualifier, with a time at 15.306 seconds out of Group A. Jonathan Davenport paced Group B at 15.347 seconds. Overton also won his heat race to grab the pole to start the feature with Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Ill., starting alongside as Heat 3 winner.

- Myers, Wagner, White win as Rod End Supply "Road to the Hockett" begins at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 16, 2026) - West coast native Joel Myers Jr., continued a successful trek through mid-America with a dominant win as the Rod End Supply "Road to the Hockett" kicked off Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. The 20-year-old Myers started on the pole and led all the way to capture the POWRi Winged 410 Sprint feature win, worth $5,000, and getting a leg up in the four-race series that leads to an open-wheel crown jewel in September. Other winners in the opener of the "Road to the Hockett" series were Jack Wagner (POWRi WAR Sprints) and Peyton White (POWRi/IMCA WOW 305 Sprints). The series points champ after the four races in the POWRi 410 Winged Springs and POWRi WAR will receive an automatic bid into this fall's 16th annual Jesse Hockett-Daniel McMillin Memorial, Sept. 17-19. Other rounds on the Rod End Supply Road to the Hockett: Round 2 on June 27, Round 3 on Aug. 1 and Championship Night on Aug. 22. Myers drives to POWRi 410 Sprints win: Joel Myers Jr. of Santa Rosa, Calif., led all 25 laps to outduel 10th-starting Landon Crawley for the POWRi 410 Sprint feature. Myers also won at 36 Speedway in the division on Friday night. Myers led Marcus Thomas as the front-row starters set the early pace with Miles Paulus going from sixth to third, before a red flag brought action to a half as Jack Potter rolled his car onto its side in turn one. The restart saw Paulus continue his charge as he drove into second with Thomas fading quickly to 10th. Meanwhile, Myers was pulling away, opening a 2.2-second lead over Paulus by lap nine. Paulus cut into the lead as Myers battled lapped traffic, pulling within 1.3 seconds by lap 15. One lap later, Landon Crawley completed a slider to get around Paulus for second, but that allowed Myers to extend his lead to two seconds with just six to go. Myers continued to sail from there, beating Crawley by 2.9 seconds at the finish. "This is a testament to the (crew) guys busting their butts," Myers said in victory lane. "I had a driver error on Tuesday (at Fremont Speedway) and it destroyed a race car. They kept their heads high and build a whole new race car. This weekend was really good." Myers said hitting his marks consistently in lapped traffic kept him in good shape over the final half of the race. "They really hit it on the race track tonight," Myers said. "It had a bottom, a middle and a top. I'm glad they decided not to re-work it. A big goal this weekend was to work on decision making in lapped traffic because that's what wins races." Xavier Doney rallied from eighth to third with Paulus settling for fourth and Nixa's Kyle Bellm was fifth. Jack Wagner previews in POWRi WAR Sprints: Fourth-starting Jack Wagner of Lone Jack took the lead with six laps remaining and held off Nixa's Wesley Smith to capture the POWRi WAR Sprint feature victory. "They really had my number there until about halfway to go," an excited Wagner said in victory lane. "I'm so excited, I can't see straight. I am a non-wing winner at Lucas Oil Speedway." Third-starting Wyatt Burks made an inside pass on Smith out of turn four to take the lead on lap three, seconds before a caution flew for a spin by Jesse Bebee. Just one lap was completed before Bebee spun again to bring out caution No. 2. Once the field starting stacking green-flag laps, Burks was able to open a half-second lead by lap 10, but Smith moved to the high groove and cut the lead to a car length when caution came out again on lap 12 when fourth-running Samuel Wagner rolled to a stop trying to exit the track. Burks continued to maintain the lead after the restart as Jack Wagner moved past Smith for second on lap 13. Caution No. 4 flew two laps later when Brett Combs' car dropped fluid in turn four. Wagner grabbed the lead on lap 19 coming off turn four. He rolled from there, expanding his margins to more than a second by lap 22 and taking the checkers over Smith by 2.7 seconds with Burks third and Chase Howard fourth. "Jack's been working his tail off to get to victory lane at Lucas Oil Speedway and hats off to him," Smith said. "Everybody did a great job here tonight, Jack was just better than us." White takes POWRi/IMCA WOW 305 victory: Peyton White, a 15-year-old from LaMonte, Mo., lost the lead to Laney Moore briefly before rallying to regain the top spot and held off Moore for the 305 Winged Sprint victory. Peyton White set the early pace over Laney Moore with Monty Ferriera third as action settled into a rhythm after two early stoppages. White had nearly a one-second lead at the mid point on lap 10 as he started to encounter lapped traffic. That allowed Moore to close in within a couple of car lengths. Moore took over the lead on lap 15, but White grabbed it back the next time around. The two battled it out, side-by-side at times the rest of the way and White was able to prevail by .629 seconds. Ferriera was third with Mike Trent fourth and Randy Martin finishing fifth.

- O'Neal Captures High Bank Heist Opener at Eagle Raceway
EAGLE, NE (May 14, 2026) - Current Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series points leader Hudson O'Neal of Martinsville, Indiana charged from the seventh starting position to capture his fifth Series victory of the 2026 season Thursday night during opening night of the Malvern Bank High Bank Heist at Eagle Raceway. O'Neal collected $10,000 for the win, which also marked his 13th overall dirt late model victory of the year. Ricky Thornton Jr., who started 15th, earned Hoker Trucking Hard Charger honors as he rallied to finish second. Brandon Sheppard, fresh off last Saturday's victory at Fairbury Speedway, rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third after starting 10th. Max Blair finished fourth, while Jonathan Davenport completed the top five. Brandon Overton led the opening 17 laps of the 40-lap main event before Garrett Alberson briefly took over the top spot for three circuits. Overton regained the lead on lap 21 and appeared poised for victory until O'Neal began closing rapidly in the closing stages. O'Neal completed the winning pass exiting turn four on lap 30. Overton remained second until lap 34, when a flat left rear tire forced him to the hot pit. After changing the tire, Overton returned to finish 16th after leading 27 laps. The win marked the 39th Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of O'Neal's career and his second triumph at Eagle Raceway, having also won during the Series' inaugural visit to the track in 2024. "I felt like we were pretty good all night," O'Neal said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "The top was dominant early, and it was hard to make time on the bottom. Once the track started moving around, though, I felt really good down there. Overton was definitely better around the cushion, but once the bottom came in, I just tried to stay patient and wait for my opportunity." "We finally got a restart where I could get underneath him, and then he had the misfortune with the flat tire. On that last restart, my carburetor stumbled a little bit and I thought everybody was going to pile into me. I'm sorry if anybody got caught up in that." Thornton, who unloaded a backup car after issues surfaced during hot laps, charged from the eighth row to finish just 0.616 seconds behind O'Neal. "I love this place," Thornton said. "We had trouble with the primary car in hot laps, so we unloaded this one and probably overdrove in qualifying, which made for a long night. But we passed a lot of cars, and the car felt really good." "Restarts really dictated where you needed to be. I knew Max (Blair) wasn't going to the top, and if JD left the top open, I was going for it. I got a really good run and just tried not to get stuck following Hud around the bottom." Sheppard continued his recent momentum with a third-place finish after charging forward from 10th. "Honestly, I felt like we had a really good race car the whole race," Sheppard said. "I just made a couple wrong moves early—stayed too high too long, then stayed too low too long before halfway. Once everyone started moving around, I could really roll the track and move wherever I needed to. We had a really fast race car tonight."

It seems like it's been forever since we won here," Sheppard said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "We always seem to win prelims at the Prairie Dirt Classic, but these bigger races have avoided me for a while, so it's really special to win one here tonight." "When I was growing up, I dreaded coming to Fairbury because it's so tough to win here. It takes such a different driving style, and the track changes so much throughout the night. The last eight laps, I felt like I was hanging on for dear life. I think the right rear tire may have been going down after I ran over something during that caution, but this car is an absolute dream to drive right now." Hoffman, seeking his second career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory, started seventh and finished just 0.423 seconds behind Sheppard in the Tye Twarog Motorsports entry. Hoffman moved into second with 10 laps remaining after Clay Harris—who advanced from 12th to second by lap 21 - was slowed in lapped traffic. "He's the Fairbury GOAT," Hoffman said of Sheppard. "There were times I felt like I could gain a little on him, and I was hoping we'd get back to lapped traffic after that caution. But he was just better than me up on the cushion and could really pull away down the straightaways. The biggest thing is learning something for when we come back for the Prairie Dirt Classic." Shirley, who started from the pole, was also eligible for the $1,000 Steering Buddy Darkhorse Award, presented to a first-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series feature winner in a full-points event. "I think it's honestly just track time here," said the defending Prairie Dirt Classic champion, who is following the LOLMDS full time for the first time in his career. "We haven't had enough laps here yet to get the feel and balance exactly where we need it. But this was a really solid finish for our team and sponsors. We need to focus on consistently finishing races before worrying about winning them. I felt like we had a shot tonight, and while maybe we weren't quite as good as Nick or Sheppy, being this competitive is a huge confidence boost for our team." Sheppard's winning Mark Richards Racing, Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and backed by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Ace Metal Works, Performance Grading, Petroff Towing, Franklin Enterprises, Sunoco Race Fuels, Gunter's Honey, Stiles Marine and Maintenance, and Collins Brothers Towing. Completing the top ten were Jason Feger, Josh Rice, Clay Harris, Trey Mills, and Justin Duty.

The event had not been contested since 2023 due to weather interruptions in recent years. "I've got to tip my hat to Riley (Sheedy), my body guy," O'Neal said. "With a couple laps to go, I was just trying to get everything I could. I got a little loose and backed it into the fence - I knew it wasn't too bad, but I hate that for him, especially with a short turnaround. We'll get it fixed."  "I felt like the track was widening out in turns three and four, and I was just waiting for someone to show me their nose." Moran, still seeking his first win in the event that began in 1987, finished second. "I was really good until that one restart," Moran said. "I thought the top would be better, but Thornton got the bottom. Then on another restart, I got a good run and slid him, but I ended up messing both of us up. I apologized - I should have committed to the fence and given him a chance to cross over. I didn't want to race him like that." Thornton, who won the event the last time it was held in 2023, finished third and commented on the late-race contact. "It was just racing - I told him we're not going golfing together anymore," Thornton joked. "Nothing to be mad about. The track was pretty good. When we come back in August, I think they'll widen turns one and two a bit so the top can keep up. Three and four were really good all night. Honestly, these conditions are where I struggle, so to be close to those guys up front, I'm happy." O'Neal's winning SSI Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and backed by Big River Steel, Wheeler Metals, Merrill Bonding, Professional Concrete Cutting and Drilling, O'Neal's Salvage and Recycling, Lineal Contracting, Beeman Lumber, Sunoco Race Fuels, Dicky's Doghouse, Seven Spurs Ranch, Penske Racing Shocks, Lucas Oil, and Indiana USSSA Fast Pitch Softball.

- Thornton Denies O'Neal for Circle City Victory on Friday Night
INDIANAPOLIS, IN (May 1, 2026) - Ricky Thornton Jr. tracked down race-long leader Hudson O'Neal and made the winning pass on lap 41, then held on to capture his second Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing victory of the season Friday night at Circle City Raceway. Thornton's 58th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win earned him $15,000 in the Series' second-ever visit to the Indianapolis facility. O'Neal finished second, with Max Blair rounding out the Big River Steel podium in third. Mike Marlar finished fourth, followed by Devin Moran in fifth. Starting sixth, Thornton now moves into a tie with Brandon Sheppard for fourth in the championship standings heading into Saturday's event at Florence Speedway. "I felt like we had a really good car all night, but I just couldn't quite get it going early. In the feature, everything came together," said the Chandler, Arizona native. "Watching midget and sprint car races here, you know how technical the top can be and that the bottom will eventually come in. Max (Blair) was strong down there, and after that caution, when Marlar chose the bottom, I knew I had to make my move." "I got by Max on the restart, and once I cleared Mikey (Marlar), I felt like I had a shot at Hudson. I knew it might take lapped traffic to slow him down, and it worked out for us." With his runner-up finish, O'Neal is now tied with Moran for the championship points lead heading into the Ralph Latham Memorial at Florence Speedway. "It was probably better not to be the leader at the end," O'Neal said. "Ricky was really good late in the race. He probably saved his tires better than I did and was able to move around more. When you're leading, you're kind of stuck picking a lane and hoping it holds. No excuses—we're happy to finish second, even though it's tough to lead that long and get passed late." Blair continued his strong run, recording his ninth consecutive top five finish. "The restart where Ricky got by me actually helped me a bit," Blair said. "I knew once Marlar picked the bottom on that last restart, it was going to be tough to hold those guys off. It was a lot of fun racing with Ricky for as long as we did." Thornton's winning Koehler Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and backed by Hoker Trucking, Knight's Companies, Coltman Farms Racing, Capital Waste, Strange Oval, Certified Inspection Services, Sunoco Race Fuels, and SI Towing and Recovery. Completing the top ten were Dan Ebert, Josh Rice, Brandon Sheppard, Brandon Overton, and Carson Ferguson.

The O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year Award recognizes the top first-year full-time competitors on the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series tour, highlighting consistency, performance, and commitment throughout the grueling national schedule.

Rice's career highlights include multiple triumphs in late model competition, including being a two-time winner of the Ralph Latham Memorial, along with standout performances against national-caliber fields. His ability to compete at a high level has made him a driver to watch as he steps onto the full Lucas Oil tour. "This is a huge opportunity for our team," said Rice. "We've worked for years to get to this level, and to be in the Rookie of the Year conversation with a series like Lucas Oil means a lot. Our goal is to stay consistent, learn every night, and put ourselves in contention wherever we go." Missouri's Dillon McCowan enters the 2026 season with momentum and determination after establishing himself as a rising force in dirt late model racing.

- Sheppard Handles Hagerstown Field on Sunday Night
HAGERSTOWN, MD (April 26, 2026) - Brandon Sheppard dominated Sunday night at Hagerstown Speedway, capturing the Conococheague 40 for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series in commanding fashion. The New Berlin, Illinois native earned $10,000 for his third LOLMDS victory of the season, taking the lead from Brandon Overton on lap three and pacing the remainder of the race. Sheppard crossed the finish line more than five seconds ahead of Overton, with 11th-starting Hudson O'Neal rounding out the Big River Steel podium in third. Current championship points leader Devin Moran finished fourth, and Max Blair completed the top five. Overton led the opening two laps of the annual event, which marked the Series' 16th appearance at Hagerstown Speedway, before Sheppard surged past him for the top spot on lap three. Once out front, Sheppard quickly built a commanding lead, reaching lapped traffic by lap nine. The race's only caution came on lap 10, but it did little to slow his momentum. On the restart, Sheppard remained firmly in control, leading the rest of the way in a race that featured just one caution flag. The victory marked the 38th of Sheppard's Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series career—and his first at Hagerstown Speedway. "It was awesome. Mark, Dan, Austin, Joel, Steve Baker, and everyone at Rocket Chassis have been working their tails off," Sheppard said. "They've been giving me a great car night in and night out. There's so much competition out here—you can have the fastest car and still not win—but I really feel like we've been fast all year. I don't think I've felt bad at the track once this season." "You never really know how big of a lead you have. My signal guy showed me it was comfortable, but I wasn't overdriving. I was going as fast as my tires would allow. A couple of times I pushed hard and felt the left rear getting hot, so I backed it down and let it come back to me." Overton, who was aiming for a clean sweep of the night, settled for the runner-up finish. "He (Sheppard) had a little different tire than we did. I probably tried to block him too early—I moved down and pushed up the track," Overton said. "Hats off to them—they did a great job. We were good, just not quite good enough." O'Neal, who started sixth row inside, closed the gap late and now sits 25 points behind Moran in the championship standings heading into next weekend's events at Circle City Raceway and Florence Speedway. "We just needed to qualify better," O'Neal said. "We weren't very good in qualifying and probably over-adjusted for the rough conditions. We got back to our normal program for the feature and were really good. We just didn't get a caution at the right time. I was able to close in during lapped traffic, but Brandon was able to navigate through and pull away. Thanks to Hagerstown and Lucas Oil for the effort—they gave us a great racetrack." Sheppard's winning Mark Richards Racing Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and backed by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Ace Metal Works, Performance Bodies, Petroff Towing, Sunoco Race Fuels, Franklin Enterprises, Gunter's Honey, Stiles Marine and Maintenance, and Collins Brothers Towing. Completing the top ten were Ricky Thornton Jr., Brian Shirley, Kyle Bronson, and Carson Ferguson.

- Chambers wins Modified thriller as Pitts Homes & Realty Challenge Cup debuts at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 25, 2025) - Henry Chambers held off Trevor Hughes in a frantic final few laps to earn the Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modified main event on Saturday night as the Pitts Homes and Realty Challenge Cup debuted at Lucas Oil Speedway. Chambers, of Baldwin City, Kansas, earned a $1,000 prize by beating Hughes by a car length. A total of 122 cars checked into the pits in the five divisions on Ozarks Coca-Cola/Dr Pepper Night at the races, with JC Morton also picking up a $1,000 feature win, in the Hermitage Lumber Late Models. Feature winners taking home $750 were William Garner (O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars), Jon Sheets (Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods) and Derek Brown (Hickamo Super Stocks). Chambers, 18, took the lead from Hughes on lap 14 just three laps after a caution wiped out Hughes' sizeable lead of nearly three seconds. "The car was working good. I don't know if we would have been able to get by Trevor if we didn't have that caution," Chambers said in victory lane. "Obviously that opened up an opportunity and I didn't let that one go. The race car was really good tonight." Hughes, of Westville, Okla., was the man to beat from the start. He went from third to first on the opening lap and set the pace over Devin Barker as the sixth-starting Chambers moved into third. Chambers and Barker flip-flopped positions on lap four as Hughes opened a 1.5-second lead. Hughes threatened to make it a runaway by lap eight, leading by 2.6 seconds over Chambers as Nic Bidinger took the third spot. Caution on lap 11 wiped out Hughes' 2.4-second lead over Chambers. Chambers jumped to the high side after the restart and it worked, as Chambers took the lead with a first-turn pass on lap 14. One lap later, ninth-starting Wolff sailed around Hughes for second but he jumped the cushion in turn two a lap later to fall back into third. Chambers took advantage of the shuffling behind him and held off Hughes' last-ditch effort to win by a half-second. It was his second USRA Modified win at Lucas Oil Speedway, the other coming in 2024. Bidinger wound up third with Wolff fourth and Cole Campbell fifth. Morton tops Ewing for Late Model win: JC Morton of Springfield held off the defending Hermitage Lumber Late Models track champ Robbe Ewing for his first Challenge Cup feature victory. Tyler Wolff was scheduled to start on the pole but elected to drop to the back for a chance to collect a $500 bonus if he was able to pull off the win. Wolff already had picked up nine positions, moving into fifth by lap four and to fourth by lap six. Morton continued to set a hot pace up front with Ewing second and Tucker Cox third. That's where Wolff's advancement hit a snag with the race remaining under extended green-flag conditions. Morton led Ewing by 1.4 seconds by lap 15 as the top two finishers in the division a year ago picked up where they left off. Two laps later, the race took a turn as the third-running Cox slowed to a stop in turn two, bringing out the caution. That erased Morton's one-second lead over Ewing and put Wolff back into the mix with three laps remaining. But Morton, riding the high groove, held off Ewing by .722 seconds at the checkers with Wolff winding up in third. "They take care of the car each week and have it on spot right now," Morton said of Moon Brothers Racing out of Sedalia, owner of the Late Model. "It's good to start out strong. We struggled in our B-Mod a little bit, but we'll work on that and hopefully we'll keep maintaining this and we'll be here at the end of the year for a championship." Alan Westling finished fourth with Joe Walkenhorst fifth. Garner dominates Stock Cars main event: William Garner of Lebanon led 20 laps to win the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars feature, beating Jayden Bears by just under one second. Garner opened a 2.7-second lead over fellow front-row starter Christopher Sawyer through eight laps and kept extending the margin as laps ticked away without interruption via a caution. Fourth-starting Jayden Bears went around Sawyer for second on lap 11, but trailed the leader by nearly four seconds. Bears and the rest of the field finally got a new chance to overtake the leader when Dawson Fennewald spun to bring out the race's lone caution on lap 17. Garner had a good restart and went on to prevail by .960 seconds with Grayson McKinney finishing third. "I got a hold of Jason Sivils and we're working on some shocks with him and man, he's got some pretty good stuff," Garner said. "We just need to fine-tune this thing a little bit. I'm not quite where I need to be, but it's pretty good right now." Jeff Tennant was fourth and Butch Bailey finished fifth. USRA B-Mod win goes to Sheets: Nevada's Jon Sheets started up front and led all 20 laps to take the Cleark Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods feature over Kris Jackson. Sheets, the reigning track champ, had opened a 1.8-second lead over Dimmitt when the first caution appeared, on lap three after a pair of cars spun in turn two. Just two laps after the caution, Kris Jackson moved into second after starting fifth. The lead for Sheets grew to three seconds at the halfway mark on lap 10 with Jackson running in front of Dimmitt and J.T. Carroll. Sheets relentlessly kept pulling away, holding a four-second cushion when caution flew on lap 12 for a spinning car in turn two. Sheets maintained command after the restart, riding around the high side of the track. He went on to beat Jackson by 2.3 seconds at the finish with Carroll third, Dimmitt fourth and Tim Karrick fifth. "It's always a stiff field here, especially to point out Kris," Sheets said. "He's won everything there is to win. What a weekend. We picked up a win (Friday at Electric City Speedway). We've had a tear of bad luck all year. We've had some good runs, but haven't had a real good race car yet. Tonight we had a really good race car." Brown wins Super Stocks thriller: Derek Brown of Stoutland made the winning pass entering the final turn of the final lap and held off Johnny Fennewald and Mike Striegel for the Hickamo Super stocks feature. Striegel, who appeared on his way to a hard-fought win, got caught up in lapped traffic in the final turn and that was all that Brown needed to win a thriller. "I knew whatever I was doing, I was coming off the bottom underneath that lapped car," Brown said in victory lane. "I lost a race here last year by trying to pass one of the top and I wasn't gonna let it happen again." Jacob Rexing out dueled Brown as the green waved at the start and set the early pace. He was nearly one second in front of Brown and Striegel when caution slowed the action on lap six. Striegel was dueling with Rexing for the lead just as a caution flew on lap nine. Just two laps later, Striegel was able to complete the pass for the lead, coming out of turn four. Meanwhile, Johnny Fennewald charged into second from his 17th starting position and was right behind Striegel with six to go. Fennewald slipped too high in turn two on lap 17 and fell back to fourth with Brown and Blaine Ewing trailing Striegel. Brown, taking advantage of lapped traffic that bogged down Striegel, made the winning pass in turn four of the final lap. Fennewald rallied into second with Striegel settling for third. Terry Schultz finished fourth and Ewing fell back to fifth. First of five Challenge Cup rounds: Each class will have 10 points races between April 10th and Aug. 29 with a number of other events to be run as non-points events. All 10 Challenge Cup events for each series will have elevated nightly purses. Round Two is set for June 20th, Round 3 on July 18th and Challenge Cup Championship Weekend Aug. 28-29 will make up rounds four and five.

- Steering Buddy Partners with Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series
BATAVIA, Ohio (April 25, 2026) - The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing is excited to announce a new partnership with Steering Buddy, based in Anniston, Alabama. Mike Pearl, founder of the Steering Buddy system, has agreed to sponsor the Dark Horse Winner category for the remainder of the 2026 season. The Dark Horse category will recognize any driver who has never won a full-points Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series feature event and goes on to capture their first Series victory in 2026. Eligible winners will receive an additional $1,000 bonus, courtesy of Steering Buddy. Pearl, who was eager to partner with the Series, saw this initiative as a meaningful way to give back to racers while also promoting his product. Steering Buddy was designed and developed several years ago by Mike Pearl and his son, Grant Pearl, an experienced dirt racing crew member. Maneuvering a race car in and out of a hauler, around the pits, and through technical inspection can be difficult - especially for a single person. To solve this problem, the Pearls created the original Steering Buddy device, which is now widely used across the country to help steer race cars safely and efficiently in pit areas. After four years of development, testing, and refinement - followed by three years of proven success in the field - the Steering Buddy is well-established in the racing industry. To learn more or to order, visit SteeringBuddy.com. "We are incredibly grateful to welcome another partner to the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series—especially one that supports a program giving back to racers," said Wayne Castleberry, Corporate Sales for FloRacing. "We look forward to working with Mike and the entire Steering Buddy team and hope to see a Dark Horse driver in Victory Lane at some point in 2026."

About Steering Buddy Located in Anniston, Alabama, Steering Buddy is a division of Hostile Industries. Founder Mike Pearl brings decades of experience as a dirt racer, crew member, and industry professional.

- Moran Goes Back-to-Back in Melvin L. Joseph Memorial at Georgetown
GEORGETOWN, DE (April 24, 2026) - Devin Moran captured the Melvin L. Joseph Memorial for the second consecutive year Friday night at Georgetown Speedway, taking home the $21,049 top prize in the feature event honoring the track's founder. The defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion started fifth and charged to the lead on lap seven, passing Hudson O'Neal before pacing the remainder of the 49-lap event for his fifth Series win of the 2026 season. O'Neal finished second, while ninth-starting Max Blair rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Brandon Sheppard finished fourth, and Josh Rice impressed in his Georgetown debut, advancing from 16th to complete the top five. O'Neal grabbed the early lead with Ricky Thornton Jr. in pursuit. After leading the first six laps, O'Neal was overtaken by Moran, who made a decisive move to the front on lap seven. Thornton's night came to an abrupt end shortly after when a broken driveshaft forced him to retire to the infield. Following the restart, Moran steadily extended his advantage over O'Neal and Blair. He ultimately crossed the finish line 0.570 seconds ahead of O'Neal, extending his championship points lead to 35 as the Series heads to Hagerstown Speedway on Sunday after Saturday's event at BAPS Motor Speedway was canceled due to weather. Moran's victory marked the 29th of his Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series career, capping off a challenging night filled with adversity. "Today was pretty much what racing is like sometimes—we went from low to high, then back to low again," said the Dresden, Ohio native. "We couldn't hot lap, had to pull out a backup car, set fast time, and even had an oil line come off that caused a fire under the hood. To come back from all that and win is pretty special." "I want to thank Garrett Alberson—he offered us one of his cars if we needed it—and the Rocket 1 team for helping us throughout the night. It was a tough one, but we kept fighting." "I wasn't sure how good the top would be. This is a brand-new car and motor, but we overcame a lot tonight. I was excited to go to BAPS tomorrow, but unfortunately that's canceled. We'll be ready for Hagerstown." O'Neal, who entered the race as the nation's winningest dirt late model driver with 11 victories, came up just short of his fourth Series win of the year. "He showed us a different part of the racetrack," O'Neal said of Moran. "I thought the top would dominate early, but by the time I realized he was making the bottom work, he was already by me. He did a great job, and his car was really good. We just need to be a little better to start the race." Blair's third-place finish moved him up to fourth in the championship standings. "I thought I had a shot—I had just passed Garrett (Alberson), but we didn't get that lap in," Blair said. "I wish we had one more lap so I could've lined up in the second row, but it all worked out. We weren't great in the heat race, but we improved for the feature." Moran's winning Double Down Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and backed by Big River Steel, Millwood Plumbing, C&W Trucking, Phillips CPA, BOMAG, Haulin' Haskell's, CarSourceAuto.com, Anthony's Pizza, Hazen Services, Northeastern Fabrication, McHugh Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Elliott Farms, and Pee Wee's Wrecker Service. Completing the top ten were Carson Ferguson, Daniel Hilsabeck, Garrett Alberson, Clay Harris, and Dillon McCowan. Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Race Summary The Melvin L.

- Madsen leads all the way in High Limit Diamond Classic at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 18, 2025) - It was all Kerry Madsen on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway as the 54-year-old native of Australia, who's now based in Knoxville, Iowa, picked up his first career Interstate Batteries High Limit Sprint racing victory. Madsen led all 30 laps to earn the $12,000 prize. He outdistanced runner-up Sue Lynch by 2.79 seconds with Tanner Holmes finishing third. "The car's been super quick every time we've hit the track," Madsen said, noting several competitive runs in the early portion of the High Limit schedule. "The car's been quick every night, which gives you a lot of confidence. "We haven't drawn well in dashes and had some little stuff going on. We drew a good one (tonight) and the car was good and we got the job done. I'm pretty happy." That changed this time as Madsen beat Holmes in the dash, to claim the pole position for the feature. Madsen said his young crew chief Ty Wolfgang has "done a great job" getting in sync with him. Communication has been a big key. "I know it sounds weird, but just hanging out together," Madsen said of the driver-crew chief chemistry. "Dinner and a beer and just talk about racing. You do that and it might be a Wednesday night, but something clicks. He's been real receptive with that stuff and that's great." Madsen, a former Knoxville Nationals 360 winner, paced the early going after starting from the pole, with Holmes in close pursuit. Action slowed on lap six with Chase Randall and Danny Samms III tangling in turn two for the first and only yellow of the event. Lynch moved into second on the restart as Madsen opened a 1.5-second lead by lap nine as Holmes dropped to third. Madsen's margin swelled to nearly two seconds by lap 11 - but Lynch tracked down the leader and cut the deficit to a half-second at the halfway mark on lap 15. As the race continued until green-flag conditions, Madsen settled into a one-second advantage as Lynch and Holmes tried to keep pace. Madsen poured it on in the late stages, cruising to the checkers by nearly three seconds over Lynch. "Hopefully we can keep rolling like this all year. Obviously you can't win every night, but being quick and running well is going to be awesome," Madsen said. Lynch, 28 from Cowansville, Pa., said the team found some steering issues and gave him a fast car. It just was not fast enough to stay with Madsen on Saturday night. "We were battling steering issue in the dash and it was pretty obvious," Lynch said. "We just didn't have time to change it and we just tried to make it the best we could. Really the car was super good. The guys busted their butt all night. It's a testament to the team. We're working hard and hopefully one spot better real soon." Holmes, a 22-year-old from Jacksonville, Oregon, came home third with Daison Pursley fourth, Hank Davis fifth and Rico Abreu charging from 11th to sixth. "Our best night of the year," Holmes said. "We've got to race a little bit during a break with High Limit these last few weeks. Some of those nights when we got our teeth kicked in taught us a lot." The Diamond Classic was the first of three High Limit Racing events at Lucas Oil Speedway this season, with the series returning for the 16th annual Jesse Hockett/Daniel McMillin Memorial, Sept. 17-19. Fast overall qualifier was Sye Lynch at 13.342 seconds out of Group A. Aaron Reutzel led Group B with a lap of 13.469 seconds. Both were well off the track record for 410 Sprints held by Rico Abreu at 12.829 seconds on June 29, 2024.

- Davenport completes MLRA Spring Nationals sweep at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 11, 2026) - "Superman" indeed was again super, completing a sweep of the 13th annual MLRA Spring Nationals on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Jonathan Davenport led all 50 laps - one night after pacing all 40 in the main event - and outdistanced runner-up Ricky Thornton Jr.,. Davenport, of Blairsville, Ga., earned $20,000 a night after taking a $7,000 win in his Double L Motorsports Longhorn chassis. This one was more challenging than the preliminary-night win, when Davenport's winning margin was more than seven seconds, as Thornton made it interesting as he zipped through the field from his 18th starting position. But in the end, it was all Davenport. "Ricky got up through there. He's had a tough weekend for sure, but he's really, really good," said Davenport, who led all 90 laps during the two wins. It was the two-time Show-Me 100 champion's 10th feature win at Lucas Oil Speedway since the spring of 2023. Davenport said he will return to Wheatland for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Show-Me 100, May 21-23, with some extra confidence after the MLRA Spring Nationals success. "We've got a really good notebook here," Davenport said. "We've kind of made it a tradition to bring a car here to get prepared for that race. This is an awesome facility and we love coming here." Just as he did Friday night, Davenport grabbed the lead at the drop of the green, though fellow front-row starter Tony Jackson Jr. stayed close through the early going with Davenport just a half-second in front through 10 laps. Davenport and Jackson already were passing lapped cars by that point with the first caution waving on lap 11 as Chris Simpson slowed with a flat tire while running third. The restart saw Davenport use clean air to extend his lead to two seconds by lap 17 over Jackson with Garrett Alberson moving into third. Alberson got around Jackson on lap 21 for second. Trevor Gundaker spun on lap 23 to bring out caution No. 2 as Davenport led Alberson by 3.1 seconds, followed by the ninth-starting Dalton Murty and Jackson. Thornton's surge from 18th continued as he claimed second on lap 27, going around Alberson. As Thornton and Alberson battled, Davenport was able to open a three-second lead by lap 30. Davenport struggled a bit with lapped traffic and Thornton rallied within 1.5 seconds with 10 laps to go. That was the same margin when caution flew on lap 43 as Jeff Herzog slowed with a flat tire and Dillon McCowan, who was running fourth, came to a stop in turn two. That gave Thornton a shot with seven laps remaining, but Davenport zipped away on the restart and opened a 10-car-length lead in just two laps. He kept pulling away and completed the sweep, prevailing over Thornton by 2.5 seconds at the checkers. "I was trying to pace myself," Davenport said of the final half of the race. "We really hurt tires more in the heat races today than we did yesterday. I was little worried about that, so I was pacing myself there and trying to keep a safe distance. "Just hats off to my crew. Once again, they did a phenomenal job." Alberson settled for third with Tyler Wolff driving from 19th to fourth and Matthew Larson taking fifth. Thornton lamented that he has to get his qualifying straightened out if he wants a level shot at beating Davenport. "It's embarrassing to start the night," Thornton said of time trials. "At least we're good when it matters. Congrats to 'JD.' He was really good and I knew he was going to be really good coming here. He's so good on entry and he can take off after that. "Hats off to my guys. I think we threw everything but the kitchen sink at it." Jackson Jr. posted fast overall qualifying lap with a time of 15.733 out of Group Two after Alberson paced Group 1 at 15.794. Jackson went on to win his heat race to earn the pole for the feature. Davenport, Simpson and Jeff Herzog also won heat races. Fennewald finishes Super Stocks sweep: Johnny Fennewald of Appleton City took the lead from race-long pacesetter Terry Schultz with one lap to go and held off Mike Striegel to win the Hickamo Super Stock feature for the second straight night. Schultz set the pace from the start and held a half-second lead over Striegel at the halfway mark on lap 10, with Blaine Ewing right behind in third with Fennewald fourth. The sixth-starting Fennewald moved into second on lap 15 and, riding the high groove all around the track, caught and passed Schultz on lap 19 coming out of turn four. Schultz broke something on his car and slowed, bringing out a yellow after taking the white flag. Fennewald beat Striegel by one second with Ewing third, Johnny Coats fourth and Derek Brown fifth. "I like this place. It fits my driving style really well," Fennewald said. "This track has been unbelievable. It's got character in it. It's not just follow the leader. It's got three grooves on racing and you can get on top of it now, which is where I like to be all the time." Evinger takes SMVR feature: Owen Evinger of Odessa, driving a 1970 Chevy Nova, led all the way to catpure the Show-Me Vintage Racers 15-lap feature, beating David Isaacs by a half-second. "I like this class a lot," Evinger said. "Usually we don't have a lot of wrecks, but it wasn't that way tonight." Emma Davis was third in the caution-filled race, with Jim Thorne fourth and Richard Fields fifth.

- Patient Mullens earns USMTS King of America XV crown at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 28, 2026) - Tanner Mullens took command just past the halfway mark and dominated the rest of the way to earn the crown at the United States Modified Touring Series King of America XV on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. "I just can't believe it, man," Mullens said in victory lane after claiming the $15,000 victory in a race that eluded him a year ago - when he faded at about the same time he began to dominate this time. Mullens, of Wichita, Kansas, beat Reece Solander by 2.5 seconds. Gabe Hodges, who like his teammate Solander won preliminary night features, finished third for a strong showing by the Hodges Brothers Racing team. Mullens sailed around race-long leader Tyler Stevens on lap 35 and that was all she wrote. He was up to the challenge on multiple restarts the rest of the way, but wound up pulling away. Mullens said he was motivated by his failure to close the King of America a year ago, when he pushed too hard in the first half of the race and his tires went away. "That's about all I thought about," Mullens said of last year's failure to close after leading 40 laps. "Tyler got out there and Reece set the pace. I tried to be as patient as I could. Once I got by Reece, I kind of maintained and then I knew it was about time to get going." The feature started with 10 rows, three wide and it was Stevens setting the early pace ahead of Solander with Tyler Davis third. Stevens was able to carve out a .696-second lead over Davis through 10 laps. Tanner Mullens moved from ninth to fourth by lap 12 and the top four were separated by 1.5-seconds. Davis continued to ride the high side and maintained a lead of just under one second after 20 laps. Caution on lap 24 eliminated Stevens' 1.2-second lead over Davis with Mullens in third. Mullens took over second on the restart and wasted no time pressuring Stevens for the lead as the race approached the midpoint. Just one lap past halfway, another caution flew, taking away a .901-second lead for Stevens. On the restart, Stevens staved off Mullens - but only briefly. Finally, on lap 35, Mullens went around Stevens on the outside in turn two for the first lead change. Mullens took off from there and distanced himself from Stevens by a half-second by lap 40. Mullens' lead stood at .801 seconds when a lap-45 caution bunched the field with 15 to go, but he had a terrific restart and extended the lead to one-second over Davis in just two laps. One more caution, on lap 54, erased Mullens' race-high 1.7-second lead. That gave Davis, Solander and Stevens, running second, third and fourth, one more shot at running down the leader. Mullens quickly dashed their hopes. With a flawless restart, the 33-year-old dominated the rest of the way and prevailed by 2.5-seconds over Solander. Mullens' weekend didn't start well as the team had to replace a motor after a poor practice session on Wednesday night. "Practice was horrible and I don't know what we had going on (Thursday night) but about 20 laps in it started cutting out and we didn't finish," Mullens said. "Last night it started again. We changed everything we could imagine." Six-time USMTS champ Rodney Sanders finished fourth and Brandon Davis was fifth. Solander, of Emporia, Kan., said he just couldn't keep up with Mullens while doing the best he could at conserving his tires for the final portion. "I saved until the end and I tried to push there with 15 or 20 to go and my brake pedal went to the floor," Solander said. "Tanner was really, really good tonight. Congrats to him and it was a good weekend." Former Lucas Oil Speedway track champion Bobby Williams of Hermitage picked up $1,000 with his win in the Non-Qualifiers special - a bonus event for those who did not qualify for the main event. "We've had a miserable week. I'm glad we could pull the non-qualifier off because we couldn't do anything else," Williams said. King captures USRA B-Mod feature: Cody King of Fanshawe, Okla., took the lead halfway through the 30-lap Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod feature and held off Jon Sheets for the $3,000 win. Sheets and King started on the front row and they ran 1-2 much of the race. King forged his way around Sheets out of turn four as the duo were mixed in with lapped traffic to complete lap 15. King, who won Friday's preliminary feature, stretched his lead to 1.2 seconds by lap 20. As the race continued its green-flag run, King picked his way through lapped cars to extend his margin to 1.5 seconds before a lap-23 caution flew. King went on to beat Sheets by .657 seconds. Mike Striegel was third with Chad Clancy fourth and Waylon Dimmitt fifth. "I thought I would have a chance and when we got into lapped traffic, it worked out," King said of overtaking Sheets, who won Thursday's feature. USRA Stock Cars thriller goes to Bailey: Shayne Bailey of Kearney, Mo., passed race-long leader Johnny Fennewald on the final lap to grab the $3,000 prize in the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars feature. Fennewald had led the first 29 laps, but Bailey was breathing down his neck over the final laps. Bailey made the winning pass down the backstretch for the win, with Fennewald fading to fourth and Jeffrey Abbey capturing second. Jaylen Wettengel rallied into third with Fennewald and Mason Martin rounding out the top five. Bailey said with $3,000 on the line, he had to do what he could to win the duel on the last lap. "It's just stock car racing, man" Bailey said. "You've got to lean on 'em every now and then."

- Moran Wins Third Straight Indiana Icebreaker at Brownstown
BROWNSTOWN, IN (March 28, 2026) - Devin Moran captured his third consecutive Indiana Icebreaker on Saturday night at Brownstown Speedway. The defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion earned $25,000 for his fourth series victory of the season. With the win, Moran now holds the series points lead heading into Sunday night's race at Atomic Speedway. Ricky Thornton Jr., the defending Jackson 100 champion at Brownstown, passed Max Blair late in the race to finish second. Blair rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third after starting eighth. Josh Rice, in his first full season with the series, charged from 17th to finish fourth, while Brandon Sheppard completed the top five. Sheppard, a two-time Indiana Icebreaker winner, jumped to the lead at the start of the 50-lap feature and led the opening 14 laps. Moran, who started outside the front row, moved into second on lap six and stayed within striking distance. Following a caution on lap 12, Moran closed in and overtook Sheppard three laps later, then led the remainder of the race. Moran, now a 28-time winner in Lucas Oil Victory Lane, drove from the fourth starting position to secure the victory. "You never really know where to be on the track sometimes," Moran said. "I felt like I had a really good car on that first run and was closing in on Sheppard, but we never got to lapped traffic. On restarts, he was kind of gapping me, so I knew I needed to make a move there. Once I had open air, I felt like we were going to be fine. I could see Ricky looking underneath me on restarts, but that's about it." "In turns three and four, the top was completely gone - it was up over the edge. In turns one and two, there was still a lot left if you entered just right. It was a little choppy, so if you hit it correctly, it might have been faster, but it was also very treacherous. Once I built a gap, there was no reason to take that risk." Thornton, who won in his last appearance at Brownstown last September, slipped past Blair in the closing laps to secure the runner-up finish. "He (Moran) was really good - he could go wherever he needed to," Thornton said. "I felt like I needed clean air and had to try something different. It seems like he has a lot more side bite than we do. Their program has been really strong the last couple of years, and now they're clicking off wins. Hopefully we can improve tomorrow at Atomic." Blair, who held second from lap 33 until Thornton's late pass, now has finishes of second and third in his last two Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series races. "I felt like I had a good car today—one we could have won with," Blair said. "I got to Devin and then just started making mistakes. I think I got out-experienced a little bit. We've got a strong race car, so hopefully we can keep the momentum going. I really think I had something for him. He made a great move in lapped traffic, splitting a couple of cars, and I felt like that was the turning point. I probably should have settled back in, but I kept pushing. It seems like Ricky has passed me late for a podium spot a few times this year."

- Solander soars to USMTS King of America Night 2 triumph at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 27, 2026) - For the second straight night, a first-time United States Modified Touring Series winner found victory lane in the 15th annual Summit USMTS King of America at Lucas Oil Speedway. Reece Solander of Emporia, Kansas, a Hodges Brother Racing teammate of Thursday night's winner Gabe Hodges, led wire to wire to win the $3,000 prize in a caution-free affair. The USMTS drivers will pursue a $15,000 feature win on Saturday night with the top nine locked into starting lineup, based on their best of two preliminary night results. Solander, second to Hodges on Night One, got the job done in a big way by leading all 33 laps. Solander, 24, admitted he was a bit nervous as the laps clicked away. "I didn't see the five to go. The white flag just popped out," Solander said in victory lane. "I'm not gonna lie. My last last was horrible. Nerves kicked in. It's pretty special to be up here." Action concludes on Saturday night with an earlier than planned starting time. Grandstands open at 4 p.m. with hot laps at 5. Solander started on the pole Friday and set a brisk early pace, opening a 1.3-second lead over Tyler Stevens by lap five. Stevens gradually cut into the lead, cutting it to a half-second by lap 10 with Davis and Stormy Scott battling for third nearly two seconds behind. The leaders caught lapped traffic by lap 15. Solander weaved his way through the slower cars and expanded the lead as the race continued its lengthy green-flag run. The cushion was two seconds by lap 25 over Davis, who caught and passed Stevens. Solander took it home from there, beating the fifth-starting Davis, of Hayfield, Minn., by .720 seconds at the finish. "I was super happy for (Hodges) last night. That was a cool deal to run 1-2," Solander said of his teammate. "You don't get to do that very often. It feels like we have the cars running pretty good right now. It's awesome to be here with my first win at Lucas Oil Speedway." Stevens wound up third with Talan Willis fourth and Tanner Mullens fifth. A total of 66 USMTS drivers checked into the pits with 171 entries across the three divisions. King grabs USRA B-Mod feature: Cody King of Fanshawe, Okla., led all 20 laps and survived a late-race restart to grab the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod main event and $1,000. King, who started sixth, took the lead on lap four after pole-starting Cayden Stacye led the first three circuits. King opened a 2.2-second lead by the halfway mark on lap 10. As Stacye and Chad Clancy battled for second, King was making it a runaway. His lead ballooned to 3.4 seconds by lap 15. But the race's first caution wiped out his big lead with three to go, giving Clancy and Stacye a chance. King had a solid restart and held on to prevail over Stacye by .762 seconds with Stephen Clancy settling for third. King said he never could see himself on the video board, so he couldn't measure his lead, which left him a bit uneasy. "I kept changing my line, so I never knew where to be," King said. "When you're leading you're always a sitting duck. I definitely didn't want to lose it at that end, but that was awesome." Chad Clancy slipped to fourth with Andy Bryant coming home fifth. Fennewald repeats in USRA Stock Cars: Johnny Fennewald of Appleton City made it back-to-back wins in the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars, leading all the way and fighting off a late surge from Jeffrey Abbey of Rhome, Texas. Fennewald started up front and rolled to a 2.1-second lead over Rodney Schweizer before caution slow the action on lap six. Kyle Falck took over second on the restart with Jeffrey Abbey into third as Schweitzer broke something on the left front wheel. Abbey, who started 13th, slid into second on lap 12 and gave chase to the leader. Abbey caught Fennewald by lap 15 and the two were side-by-side to finish lap 17. The next time around, caution flew for a spinning car near the rear of the field just as Abbey was passing for the lead. The restart order reverted to the previous green-flag lap, giving Fennewald the lead for a three-lap shootout. Fennewald executed a perfect restart and went on to beat Abbey by .997 seconds. Justin Custer was third with Falck fourth and Shayne Bailey fifth. "That's racing," Fennewald said of the timely caution flag. "I was really good before that caution and I don't know if my right rear sealed up or what, but it wasn't quite as good. I knew I had to free my car up a little bit, so I put some rear brake in it and slowed my entry down. It came along pretty good then and I ended up winning."

- Hodges wins opener as USMTS King of America gets under way at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 26, 2026) - It was a memorable Thursday night for a first-time Summit United States Modified Touring Series winner as Gabe Hodges celebrated a Night One win at the King of America XV at Lucas Oil Speedway. Hodges, of Lebo, Kansas, regained the lead with eight laps remaining and held on to take the $3,000 win on the first of two preliminary nights of the 15th annual event. The 23-year-old prevailed on a night that saw 66 USMTS drivers check into the pits, with a total of 176 entries across three divisions. "I've really struggled these last few weeks," Hodges said in victory lane, his crew celebrating nearby. "We put together some good finishes at the beginning of the year and made some changes to the car. We were pretty good in practice (Wednesday) night. I'm glad we figured something out here." Action resumes on Friday with the USMTS Modifieds, Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods and O'Reilly Auto Parts Stock Cars. Due to cold weather conditions, start time has been moved ahead two hours with racing at 5 p.m. Grandstands are to open at 4 p.m. with the pit office open at 2:30. The top nine USMTS drivers will take their best of the two and will be locked directly into Saturday night's three-wide start championship finale, which will pay $15,000 to win and $1,500 to start. Hodges started outside of row two and was able to catch and pass pole-starting Tyler Davis for the lead on lap four. Hodges was leading by .686 seconds when the first caution slowed the action on lap nine. Reece Solander rolled into second by lap 13 and Tanner Mullens, who started 11th, up to third as Hodges continued to lead. Hodges' lead was just under one second when caution flew on lap 17 of the 30-lapper. Mullens used the restart to slide his way past Hodges and into the lead to complete lap 18, but Hodges rallied to regain the top spot on lap 22, just before the race's fourth caution came out to set up an eight-lap shootout. Mullens lost two positions on the restart as Solander and Tyler Davis advanced to second and third. Hodges was able to hold on as the race remained green, beating Solander, his teammate, by .282 seconds. "At the beginning the top was really good and I had something to lean on," Hodges said of strategy. "Later in the race, with 10 or 12 to go, I seen Tanner's nose down here on the start and on the other end he kind of got around me. I thought I beat him back to the line and I didn't drive it down deep enough to slide him. "On that restart, I knew he couldn't run the top down here and I tried to take advantage there. It got too dirty up there and there was nothing to lean on. I kind of got down in that black groove and it cleaned up real good. We have a really good race car and really good engine under the hood." Davis finished third with Rodney Sanders rallying from 20th to fourth and Brandon Davis in fifth. Joining the USMTS Modifieds will be the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars and Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods, competing Thursday and Friday for $1,000 to win and $100 to start. The top eight drivers in points will take their best night and will lock into Saturday's championship features, which will pay $3,000 to win and $400 to start for both. Jackson wires B-Mod field: Lebanon's Kris Jackson led all 20 laps, holding off Jon Sheets, for the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod feature win. Jackson grabbed the early lead with Sheets giving chase, staying within a half-second through the first five laps with third-place Tim Karrick nearly two seconds behind the top duo. Jackson's lead was just .229 seconds by lap 10 with the first caution appearing a lap later for a spin in the back of the field. Karrick took away second after the restart, but Sheets regained it on lap 15. Jackson was able to open some breathing room as Sheets and Karrick battled. Jackson finished off a wire-to-wire win, finishing .367 seconds in front of Sheets with Karrick third, Josh Cain fourth and Dawson David in fifth. "If you're gonna out-run Jon Sheets, you better be on the top and you better have some momentum," Jackson said of his utilization of the high groove late in the race. "He tried putting a slider there and I was able to keep enough momentum where he couldn't really clean it." Fennewald captures Stock Cars win: Third-starting Johnny Fennewald of Appleton City took the lead on lap four and drove away to the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars feature win. William Garner, starting outside of the front row, took the lead at the start and held it until Fennewald grabbed it away on lap four. Fennewald opened a 1.4-second lead by the halfway point on lap 10. He continued to set the pace the rest of the way as the race ran caution free and Fennewald prevailed by the same margin over Garner at the checkers. "It was on point all night long," Fennewald said of his car, noting that it's special to beat a deep field of competitors. "This Stock Car deal ... from every state, the toughest stock cars are here. To be able to win this deal is pretty big." Sixth-starting Shayne Bailey wound up third with Mason Martin fourth and Jeffrey Abbey taking fifth. The USRA Stock Cars and B-Mods are running for $1,000 to win and $100 to start both Thursday and Friday. The top eight drivers in points those nights will take their best night and will lock into Saturday's championship features, which will pay $3,000 to win and $400 to start for both.

- Moran Wins Wild Wieland Winter Nationals Finale at Golden Isles
WAYNESVILLE, GA (March 7, 2026) - Defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented FloRacing National Champion Devin Moran came from the 22nd starting position to win a wild Wieland Winter Nationals feature on Saturday night at Golden Isles Speedway. Moran, who was the fifth different leader of the 50-lap main event, led the final four laps to pick up the $25,000 victory and close out the Georgia-Florida Speedweeks for 2026. Max Blair, who at one point came from the 25th and last starting position to lead laps 43 through 46, finished second, followed by Garrett Alberson, Clay Harris, and Brandon Overton. Mark Whitener grabbed the lead at the start of the race and led the first 14 laps. The car on the move was 17-year-old Trey Mills, who started seventh and quickly made his way to the front. Mills moved into second by lap five and challenged Whitener before taking the top spot on lap 15. Mills, who was looking for the biggest win of his young career, was holding off 19th-place starter Hudson O'Neal and Brandon Overton until he made contact with the turn-two wall. The impact launched him over the wall and collected second-place-running O'Neal, ending both drivers' nights on lap 42. Blair then picked up the lead and held it until Moran wrestled it away on lap 47. Moran led the rest of the way, winning by 0.826 seconds. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the third time this year and the 27th time in his career, the Dresden, Ohio native picked up his second career win at Golden Isles Speedway. "I don't know what just happened. It's unbelievable and definitely not what we expected after the week we've been having. Honestly, until Trey (Mills) and Huddy got into it, I was thinking maybe we could get a top three. I felt like I was better than Max. I never really saw those guys up front because they were slicing and dicing. Then when they started sliding each other, I knew if I put myself in the right position we could do it. Once they took themselves out, I knew I just needed to get a run." "When Max used the very top to the bottom, I used him up a little bit getting into three, but you can't use the whole race track. You've got to pass one way or the other. I think we are all in shock. Like I said, we have been struggling. We were decent the first night and did okay the second night. Last night we were horrible. We just went back to the basics. We weren't good early, but my car really came to life there in the feature. We found a good line I could run and we just made speed." Blair, who had to use an emergency provisional, nearly pulled off a stunning victory, charging from the 25th and final starting position to lead late in the race before Moran passed him. "He (Moran) is one of the good guys. It's hard to be mad. It just sucks. I think we had a shot at that one. I would have liked to have seen him try to keep it off me like I did him once on that next restart. I didn't do anything stupid. I went in there and raced him through the corner. But he is one of the best there is, so congrats to those guys. He did what he had to do to win and there are absolutely no hard feelings. Hopefully we can keep racing with him and maybe we can beat him every now and then." Alberson had his best finish of Speedweeks as he rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third after pitting during the race for a shredded right-rear tire. "This is huge for our team right here for Speedweeks. This has been one of my toughest tracks historically, and this is by far our best night. Man, what a crazy race, but hats off to Devin and Max. He's been fast all week here. That was the best I have ever been here. These were unique conditions for Golden Isles. It was kind of more like an Illinois track right there. We actually had traction and could move around. That was a crazy race. I am just happy to be here." The winner's Double Down Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Big River Steel, Millwood Plumbing, C&W Trucking, Bomag, CarSourceAuto.com, Anthony's Pizza, Phillips CPA, Hazen Services, McHugh Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Elliott Farms, Haulin' Haskell's, and Pee Wee's Wrecker Service. Completing the top ten were Ricky Thornton Jr., Cody Overton, Brandon Sheppard, Dennis Erb Jr., and Mark Whitener. In the 604 Late Model feature, Ross Bailes of Clover, South Carolina won for the second night in a row, leading all 20 laps in the Farmer's Service Center, JP Environmental, Pursley Grading, GTS by Danny, Clover Racing Transmissions, and A-10 Construction Kenny Lamb Racing Engines-powered Longhorn Chassis. Colton Troullie finished second after starting ninth. Griffin Smith was third, followed by Bubba Whitener and Austin Yarbrough. The 602 Late Model feature went to Griffin Smith of Eatonton, Georgia for the second time this week in the Atlanta Paving and Concrete, The World-Famous Cadillac Ranch, Terminal Maintenance and Construction, Senior Life Insurance, DJ's Performance Engines Rocket Chassis. Smith led all the way to win the 20-lap feature over Cass Fowler, Brayden Johnson, Wyatt Coffey, and John Marshall Pursley.

- Davenport Makes History with 95th Career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Victory
WAYNESVILLE, GA (March 6, 2026) - Jonathan Davenport made Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing history on Friday night, scoring the 95th win of his career by capturing the 50-lap, $12,000-to-win Wieland Winter Nationals feature at Golden Isles Speedway. With the victory, Davenport becomes the all-time winningest driver in series history, breaking a tie with the late Scott Bloomquist. Tyler Erb rallied from the outside of the seventh row to finish second, followed by Ricky Thornton Jr., Max Blair, and Ethan Dotson rounding out the top five. Blair earned the Hoker Trucking Hard Charger of the Race award after passing 22 cars en route to his fourth-place finish. Brandon Overton raced to the early lead, pulling away with Brian Shirley and Davenport in the opening 10 laps until the first caution flew with 11 laps complete. Overton led the first 14 laps before Davenport cleared him for the top spot on lap 15. Current Midwest Sheet Metal points leader Hudson O'Neal was on the move during the first half of the race, advancing from his 17th starting position to take second on lap 33. A pair of caution flags kept the field tightly bunched, and Erb capitalized by slipping past O'Neal on the bottom groove on lap 41. The final caution waved with 41 of the 50 laps complete, setting up a dash to the finish. With Davenport committed to the high side of the racetrack, Erb searched for speed on the bottom in turns three and four, briefly closing the gap. However, Davenport maintained control to secure his third straight win of the week at Golden Isles and his series-record 95th career victory. Davenport will now attempt a weekend sweep on Saturday night in the $25,000-to-win Wieland Winter Nationals finale. "It was fun for sure tonight. There were a couple of times I had to hit the brake pedal," Davenport said. "I saw him (Brandon Overton) coming, and I got turned back under him. We were just sliding back and forth, and that was definitely a lot of fun. Turns three and four were just a little bit different tonight. I felt like the shelf was more aggressive, and it was starting to rubber right against it. There were a couple of times when I hit it just right that I could roll around there pretty good without being all the way up on it." "One time I went through there really fast and about knocked the wall down. I thought I had a flat because it started vibrating, but I think my stuff was just worn out. Tyler (Erb) must have been really good to get up there. I could see him down there, but after running the top so many laps and hitting my marks, I didn't think he could get a run to the flag stand coming to the white or the checkered and try to slide me." Erb, who started 14th and worked primarily the bottom groove, finished just 0.992 seconds behind Davenport. "I didn't think I was going to catch him following him through three and four, and I felt like one and two were faster around the top," Erb said. "I just committed to running that line. I really didn't want that last caution. I got ahead of Hudson but just didn't have quite enough. Starting 14th and finishing second is pretty good. We'll try again tomorrow. It was a good race." Thornton, who started eighth, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "With 15 to go, I thought if I just finish here it's going to be a good night, and it turned out to be a good night for us," said the 2024 series champion. "I qualified well again. I was really good in the heat race, and overall we just put ourselves in a solid position." Davenport's Double L Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging, Nutrien Ag Solutions, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, and Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas. Completing the top 10 were Hudson O'Neal, Garrett Alberson, Kyle Bronson, Dillon McCowan, and Garrett Smith. The 15-lap 604 Late Model feature went to veteran racer Ross Bailes of Clover, South Carolina, who drove the Pursley Racing entry to the $1,500 victory. Bailes led all but the opening lap. Griffin Smith, winner of Thursday night's 602 Late Model feature, finished second, followed by Adam Yarbrough, Michael Brown, and Trent Ivey. The $2,000-to-win Crown Vic feature concluded with Hunter Thigpen of Lyons, Georgia, in Victory Lane after Daniel Starner made contact with race leader Johnny Collins on the final lap, sending Collins spinning. Starner was disqualified from the event. Brody Collins was credited with second, followed by Tony Bromley, Adam Chambers, and Daniel Baldwin.

- Davenport Wins Second Straight Wieland Winter Nationals Race at Golden Isles
WAYNESVILLE, GA (March 5, 2026) - Jonathan Davenport captured Thursday night's Wieland Winter Nationals feature for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series at Golden Isles Speedway, earning his second consecutive victory at the event. With the win - the 94th of his career - Davenport ties Hall of Famer Scott Bloomquist for the most victories in series history. Hudson O'Neal, the current Midwest Sheet Metal Points Leader, finished second to Davenport for the second straight night. Brandon Overton made a last lap pass on Clay Harris to round out the Big River Steel Podium in third. Harris, who started 13th, finished fourth, while Max Blair advanced from 11th to complete the top five. Davenport, a three-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series champion like Bloomquist, led all 40 laps en route to the $10,000 victory. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane, he reflected on tying the late Mooresburg, Tennessee driver for the all-time wins record. "I wish he was here so we could talk about it," Davenport said. "He taught me a lot. Scott did - and believe it or not, we talked. Not all the time, but we were acquaintances. At one point, we were more than just rivals. I had a tremendous amount of respect for him, and I think I gained his respect over the years." The Blairsville, Georgia native also reflected on his early success in the series. "I remember my first two Lucas Oil wins with Barry Wright. We went to a new place we had never been before - I think it was Winchester, Virginia - and then the next night I outran Scott at Virginia Motor Speedway for back-to-back wins. It's just awesome, really. I never would have thought I'd get more than those two wins, but to get 90-some is just crazy." Davenport had to fend off mid-race challenges from O'Neal, who never officially led a lap but kept the pressure on throughout the event. "I didn't know where to go on the restarts," Davenport said. "I thought the top was a little better taking off because it gives you more momentum. This place is so wide - if you give up the bottom, you're giving up a lot of real estate. I tried a couple of different things. Hudson got to me in lapped traffic and we slid each other two or three times. He gave me plenty of room. One time I pushed off turn two and almost got into him, but I was trying my best not to. I knew he was going to be one of the cars to beat." O'Neal, who rallied from eighth to finish second on Wednesday night, started fourth and moved into second by lap nine. "There was no way I was going to pass him unless he hit the wall or caught lapped traffic in a bad spot," O'Neal said. "It was very top-dominant, and it was hard to set up a slide job because there was such a strong run off the corner. We're back on the podium again, so we can't complain. We're putting ourselves in good positions if something happens, and we were able to capitalize earlier in the week." Overton's last-lap pass of Harris capped off a hard-fought battle in the closing circuits. "I think our race car is fine - JD's just out front doing his thing, and we're all trying to match his time," Overton said. "You know how this place is - you need some tires at the end of the race. Everybody's driving as hard as they can. Every time I tried to get into a rhythm, somebody would slide me and bottle things up. I spent half the race battling back around cars in turns one and two. It was a frustrating race for me. Congrats to JD and Hudson." The winning Double L Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging, Nutrien Ag Solutions, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, and Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas. Completing the top ten were Ricky Thornton Jr., Dennis Erb Jr., Devin Moran, Dillon McCowan, and Mark Whitener. In the 602 Late Model feature, Griffin Smith of Eatonton, Georgia led all 20 laps to secure the victory. Wyatt Coffey challenged Smith multiple times but settled for second. Phil Pittman finished third, followed by Caleb Gay and Ben Lanford. The Crown Vics once again delivered an exciting feature, with the Collins family dominating the top three positions. Jax Raceways Hall of Famer Johnny Collins led his sons, Chase and Brody, for four laps before Chase took over the lead in traffic. Chase Collins went on to capture his second Crown Vic feature win of 2026, finishing ahead of Johnny Collins, Brody Collins, Tommy Roach Sr., and Kevin Hildebrand.

- Davenport Returns to Victory Lane at Golden Isles with Wieland Winter Nationals Triumph
WAYNESVILLE, GA (March 4, 2026) - Jonathan Davenport scored his first win at Golden Isles Speedway since February 6, 2016, on Wednesday night, leading all 30 laps of the Wieland Winter Nationals feature for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing. The victory marked Davenport's fifth career win at Golden Isles. He led a hard-charging Hudson O'Neal across the finish line in a caution-free feature — the third such race of the season for the series. Davenport held more than a three-second lead for much of the second half of the race until O'Neal trimmed the advantage to just over a second in the closing laps. Brandon Sheppard, who was seeking his first career win at Golden Isles, finished third, followed by Devin Moran. Max Blair earned the Hoker Trucking Hard Charger of the Race honors, finishing fifth after starting 12th. The win was the 93rd Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of Davenport's career. The Blairsville, Georgia native and three-time series champion captured his first Golden Isles win in 10 years and his first victory of the 2026 season. "It was my first lap led of the year," Davenport said. "It just feels like we could never get any air on the front of this car. I started on the front row in Arizona, but we could never get the start we needed and just didn't have the car to come back to the front. My guys gave me an awesome car tonight, and this one is definitely for them. We wrecked that car on Thursday at Ocala, and they worked their tails off and drove a lot more miles than they should have to fix it." "The race car was awesome tonight. They've done a great job widening the track back out, especially going into turn one. They took a lot of the cup out of turn two, so we didn't have to run up there as much and could let the bottom come in a little bit. The biggest difference was tires — Hudson and I were a little different from the other guys up front. I knew I needed to get the lead and get some clean air." O'Neal, who will enter Thursday night's action as the Midwest Sheet Metal points leader, charged from eighth to finish second. "More than anything, I was following those guys on the bottom, and I felt like I was better than them running sixth or seventh, wherever I was," O'Neal said. "So I moved to the top and started passing a few of them. Then I got back down behind (Mark) Whitener and kept trying to peek under him, but I couldn't quite make it work. I think that was when the top finally cleaned off a little bit, and we started making really good time up there." "I was able to move around, and I thought the race track turned out awesome. We could race all over it with different tire choices — from the softer tires on the inside to literally rubbing the right-rear tire on the wall." Sheppard rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "We finished tonight — that's all I'm going to say," Sheppard said. "The last few nights at Ocala, we had some unfortunate situations, and we had a really fast car there. The track was awesome tonight, our car was really fast, and we had another consistent night." The winning Double L Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging, Nutrien Ag Solutions, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, and Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas. Completing the top 10 were Tyler Erb, Brian Shirley, Mark Whitener, Garrett Alberson, and Brandon Overton. In the companion Crown Vic feature, Brody Collins of Hilliard, Florida, led all 15 laps for the victory. Collins inherited the pole position when his father, Johnny, scratched from the feature due to mechanical issues. Daniel Baldwin finished second, followed by J.O. Nobles, Chase Collins, and Kevin Hildebrand.

- O'Neal Goes Back-to-Back in Wieland Winter Nationals at Ocala
OCALA, FL (February 28, 2026) - Hudson O'Neal took over the lead on lap 37 after race-long leader Brandon Overton suffered a left-rear flat tire, then led the remainder of the race to win the $25,000 Wieland Winter Nationals 50-lap feature Saturday night at Ocala Speedway. It marked O'Neal's second straight win at Ocala as he led Devin Moran, Tim McCreadie, Jonathan Davenport, and Drake Troutman across the finish line. Overton grabbed the lead at the start of the race with O'Neal, Troutman, and Brandon Sheppard in pursuit. Looking for his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win since last May at Circle City in Indiana, Overton maintained a two-to-three car-length advantage as the top four ran within striking distance during much of the first 15 laps. The top four remained unchanged until Overton slowed under caution with a flat left-rear tire, sending him to the Heartbeat Hot Sauce Hot Pit. O'Neal inherited the lead, and Sheppard moved past Troutman for third on lap 37. Sheppard then advanced to second before suffering a right-rear flat tire with 40 laps complete. Moran moved into the runner-up position as he and sixth-starting McCreadie attempted to chase down O'Neal over the final five laps. However, O'Neal pulled away, crossing the finish line 1.474 seconds ahead to earn his nation-leading seventh win of the season. The victory marked O'Neal's 37th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph. The 25-year-old Martinsville, Indiana native will head to Golden Isles Speedway next week as the series points leader. "I'm speechless right now. I don't even know what to say. What an amazing start to the year for this SSI Motorsports team," said O'Neal. "We have to give credit where credit is due to Kevin Rumley and Longhorn Chassis, who have helped us along the way. It's so awesome to be in this position. When I crossed the finish line, the first word that came to mind was 'speechless.' I just try to give glory to God and do the best we can every day. It wouldn't be possible without all of you fans, these amazing racetracks, and the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series giving us a great place to race." "Even though we had a lot of rain yesterday and it was kind of uncertain today, Bubba and everyone here at Ocala Speedway worked their tails off to give us the best racetrack possible, and it turned out to be pretty good." Moran finished second after starting fifth, continuing his streak of top-10 finishes at Ocala. He has never finished outside the top 10 in LOLMDS competition at the Bubba Clem-promoted facility. "It was a good points night. The 71 car is just a little bit better than we are right now," Moran said. "He can get to the front quicker than we can. I've got to figure out why the only two heat races we've won this year, we've gone on to win the feature that night. We just need to work on our early-night package and start up front more often." "Honestly, Bubba and those guys did a way better job than any of us expected. We all thought it was going to get really rough and be really bad. It had a little chop, but all-in-all they did a great job," added the Dresden, Ohio native, who currently sits second in the championship standings. "If I was going to pass Hudson, it was going to have to come from his mistake — maybe if he got over the banking in turns three and four or pushed up into the wall in one and two. I was trying to stay close but also avoid flat tires or hurting the engine. We went four-for-four on the podium here this week, and I can't complain." McCreadie, Thursday night's Hoker Trucking Hard Charger of the Race, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third during Saturday's finale. "It stayed pretty tacky the whole time. Hats off to Bubba and his guys — they could have easily written it off and quit because it was such a big purse. I don't think anybody would have blamed them, but they worked hard, and I hope we did it justice for everyone tonight. It was about all you could get tonight." The winning SSI Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by Clements Racing Engines and sponsored by Big River Steel, Wheeler Metals, Merrill Bonding Company, Professional Concrete Cutting and Drilling, O'Neal's Salvage and Recycling, Lineal Contracting, Beeman Lumber, Seven Spurs Ranch, Indiana USSSA Fast Pitch Softball, Sunoco Race Fuels, and Lucas Oil Products. Completing the top 10 were Brendan Smith, Max Blair, Kyle Bronson, Ricky Thornton Jr., and Clay Harris.

- O'Neal Captures Thursday Night Victory at Wieland Winter Nationals in Ocala
OCALA, FL (February 26, 2026) - Hudson O'Neal passed race-long leader Kyle Bronson on lap 14 and never looked back, capturing Thursday night's Wieland Winter Nationals feature for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing at Ocala Speedway. O'Neal, who started ninth, earned $10,000 for his second career victory at Ocala. Devin Moran finished second, followed by Bronson, Ricky Thornton Jr., and Tim McCreadie. Despite a late-race caution with three laps remaining, O'Neal maintained control and crossed the finish line 0.924 seconds ahead of Moran. The win marked O'Neal's 36th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory and his sixth overall triumph of the season - a total that leads the nation. With the win, he also takes over the series points lead heading into Friday night's $12,000-to-win main event. "It got latched up pretty early, and I was a little nervous," said the Martinsville, Indiana native. "I was trying to use the right front and not the right rear, keeping the right rear underneath me. I wanted to make sure I didn't have a flat, especially as hard as I was going to have to run after that last caution to get away from them. It's pretty awesome to get one here in the middle of the week. Hopefully, this is what's to come for the rest of the week. "It's been a really good year so far, and I am very blessed in that aspect of life." Moran, the defending series champion, came home second after starting seventh. "I was just holding on. I didn't have much tire left," Moran said. "Like I said last night, it doesn't matter what the track conditions are here at Ocala — I love coming here. In three nights, I've got three podiums. We just need to work on our early program again. We were good early in the week, but we kind of made the wrong calls the last night or two. We'll get back to our notebook and figure out what we can do the rest of the week." Bronson, who led the opening 13 laps, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium despite battling handling issues. "It's definitely good to run well. We had a really good race car, but the bumper got knocked off on the left front when I hit the wall on the first lap," Bronson said. "I think me and JD got tight there — maybe he clipped the right rear quarter panel. I'll have to watch the video. Hopefully he's okay. I want to thank my guys for not giving up on me.

- Sheppard Returns to Wieland Winter Nationals Victory Lane at Ocala
OCALA, FL (February 25, 2026) - It took Brandon Sheppard nine years to return to Victory Lane at Ocala Speedway, but on Wednesday night the New Berlin, Illinois driver captured the 30-lap Wieland Winter Nationals feature for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing. Sheppard earned his third career victory at Ocala and his first since 2017, driving the Rocket 1 to a 0.583-second win over Hudson O'Neal. Devin Moran finished third, with Brandon Overton and Clay Harris rounding out the top five. Kyle Bronson powered around the outside of the front row to grab the early lead, with Sheppard settling into second. Bronson, who was seeking his first Lucas Oil Series win since the 2021 Silver Dollar Nationals, maintained a steady two-car-length advantage through the opening laps. However, as he exited Turn 4 to complete Lap 6, Bronson suddenly slowed with apparent drivetrain issues. Sheppard, closing quickly on the bottom, made slight, unavoidable contact as Bronson decelerated. The caution flag waved as Bronson headed to the hot pit, ending his night. Sheppard inherited the lead, with O'Neal and Overton in pursuit until a caution on Lap 18 reset the field. Two laps after the restart, Moran slipped past Overton for third. The final 10 laps featured an intense three-car battle as Sheppard, O'Neal, and Moran navigated heavy lapped traffic. Both challengers closed in, but Sheppard cleared a slower car on the white-flag lap, giving him just enough breathing room to secure the win at the checkers. The victory marked Sheppard's 37th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph. He also broke a tie with Don O'Neal for fourth place on the all-time Georgia-Florida Speedweeks win list with his 25th victory. "It felt good to see the checkered flag," Sheppard said. "We definitely had some stuff messed up on the front end from the contact with Kyle. I felt terrible about that. It looked like he missed it a little bit, and I was filling the gap on the bottom when we came together. I hate that for him, but we had a really fast car again tonight. It was just one of those deals where we got out front. My dad said last night I was messing around too much in lapped traffic, so this one's for him." With the win, Sheppard became the winningest Rocket 1 driver during Georgia-Florida Speedweeks over the last 25 years, earning his 11th victory and breaking a tie with Josh Richards. "I was running a different line in Turns 1 and 2 than I expected," Sheppard added. "I would enter on the bottom and slide across the middle. I kept waiting for it to change because I knew it might go away at some point. I felt good on both the bottom and the top and was just trying to maintain speed. With the front end being jacked up, it was wherever the car put me. Turns 3 and 4 were tougher because I needed to carve down the hill and come off lower and straighter, and I struggled with that late in the race." O'Neal, who was seeking his second career win at Ocala, closed the gap in the final laps but settled for second. "Sheppy had a good race car," O'Neal said. "I felt like we were pretty maneuverable and could really build momentum down the back straightaway. The longer the race went, the better I felt. I gained on him late, and lapped traffic definitely played a factor. I got caught behind Ross (Robinson), and I just wasn't able to capitalize with a lap or two to go." Moran, who started eighth, advanced to third on Lap 20 and joined the late-race battle to round out the Big River Steel Podium. "I felt like my car was really good again," Moran said. "I jumped the cushion in the heat race, got into the wall, and let Hud get by me, and that really dictated our night. You have to start up front here. I know they're working hard on the track night in and night out, and I'm sure they'll have it figured out by the end of the week."

- Moran Repeats Wieland Winter Nationals Opening Night Win at Ocala
OCALA, FL (February 24, 2026) - Devin Moran repeated his performance from one year ago, capturing the opening night of the 2026 Wieland Winter Nationals at Ocala Speedway on Tuesday night. The caution-free 30-lap feature took just eight minutes to complete. Moran, the defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion, took the lead on lap 14 from race-long leader Brandon Sheppard and went on to pace the final 16 circuits, earning his fourth career victory at Ocala. Sheppard, who was seeking his first Ocala win since 2017, finished second, followed by Clay Harris, Brandon Overton, and Hudson O'Neal. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 26th time in his career, Moran earned $7,000 for the win. "No, honestly, Sheppy took off hard there. The dirt's not hard, but it's definitely a little gritty. I feel like you build a little bit of heat, so I was just trying to bide my time," Moran said. "I know how this place is when you get to lapped traffic, and if you can maneuver, you're going to be really good. My guys provided me with a Longhorn Chassis that could move anywhere on the race track, on either end. So, it was really cool." Regarding his second win of the season — both coming in caution-free features — Moran discussed his approach to long green-flag runs. "Honestly, I've always been better on long green-flag runs. I'm able to find a rhythm and places on the track where I can make speed, and that's what I did the whole race," he said. "When you have a car you can maneuver through traffic, it's so fun. If you have one you can't, it just makes it tough. Bubba (Clem) and those guys did a great job giving us a track you could move around on. I just love being in Florida for the month." Sheppard, who set overall fast time and won his heat race, was looking to complete a clean sweep of the night but settled for the runner-up finish. "I think we had a really fast car capable of winning the race," Sheppard said. "Congrats to Devin — he did a really good job there. I pretty much gave it away in lapped traffic. I was trying to figure out where I could pass those guys because I hadn't passed anyone yet. I went to the top one lap, and Devin was on me and made the most of it." Harris, who scored two podium finishes last week at All-Tech, opened the week at Ocala by rounding out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "It's a lot more fun when you can run up front to start off the year," Harris said. "We definitely struggled last year — switching cars, switching teams — and I didn't have much crew help at the beginning of the season. We've got a good team this year, good equipment, and good cars. I could run the bottom and kind of maintain, but I couldn't really make the top work — it would just fall off." The winning Roger Sellers, Double Down Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Big River Steel, Millwood Plumbing, C&W Trucking, Phillips CPA, Anthony's Pizza, Bomag, CarSourceAuto.com, Hazen Services, McHugh Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Elliott Farms, Haulin' Haskell's, and Pee Wee's Wrecker Service. Rounding out the top ten were Brian Shirley, Daulton Wilson, Tyler Erb, Max Blair, and Drake Troutman.
