- Hartmann hones in on home track return
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) July 28, 2026 - One week after bagging his first career A-main win at River Cities Speedway in North Dakota, Austin Hartmann, along with the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team, trekked to northwestern Wisconsin for a pair of Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series events July 24-25. The doubleheader weekend fired up at Mississippi Thunder Speedway in Fountain City, Wis. on Friday, July 24. With 30 cars checked in for the event, the Plymouth, Wis. driver opened the night with a strong seventh-place qualifying run in 12.239 seconds at the picturesque third-mile high-banked clay oval. After starting on the outside of the front row of the first IRA heat race, the driver of the pole-sitting car slipped up into Hartmann as the two competitors dueled for the lead on the opening lap. The contact forced Hartmann to visit the work area for repairs. After restarting the race at the rear of the field, he ended up with a ninth-place finish. The seventh-year Sprint Car competitor rebounded to race his way into a berth in the evening's main event by placing third in the 12-lap B main. Hartmann started 22nd in the 30-lap IRA headliner and capped the night with an 18th-place showing. One night later, Hartmann and crew traveled north with the IRA to the Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wis., for the Jerry Richert Memorial. After qualifying 12th in Flight A in 12.574 seconds, Hartmann placed eighth in the second heat race. He advanced from the fifth starting spot to place third in the first 10-lap B main to miss qualifying for the 30-lap main event by one spot. "It was a rough weekend," Hartmann said. "Our night got changed in a big way in the heat race on Friday, not by my doing. On Saturday, we unloaded decent. We just needed to make better decisions on setup. Also, bringing out a new engine for the weekend really changed the feel of the car." The Plymouth, Wis.-based team is set to race in its own backyard for a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series event at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. this Saturday, Aug. 1. Spectator gates open at 4:30 p.m. with "on-track action" scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. The event will be live streamed on floracing.com. 87A Hartmann Racing 2026 sponsorship partners include Kristine Hartmann, Realtor of Pleasantview Realty, Shufflebotham Tree Service, The Dispensary, Double A Autobody, Quasius Construction, Holler n' Hills, High Speed TI, Metalcraft, Hepfner Racing Products, Berryman Racing Shocks, and Keizer Racing Wheels.

- Hartmann basks in first win glow
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) July 21, 2026 - While enduring seven seasons of ups, downs, and everything in between, Austin Hartmann and the 87A Hartmann Racing Team embraced a can-do attitude and steadfast dedication to a sport that is as tough as it is unforgiving. On Friday, July 17, everything fell into place as Hartmann drove his 87A machine to his first career A-main victory in the 30-lap Midwest Sprint Touring Series-Northern Outlaw Sprint Association Buffalo Wild Wings King of the Wings event at River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, N.D. Hartmann headed into the night with fond memories of a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association event on July 19, 2024, during which he led 10 laps of the A main on the way to a then-career-best fourth-place showing. For the evening's qualifying-free racing format, which featured a deep field of 33 MSTS-NOSA competitors, Hartmann came out strong, storming up five spots from seventh to place second in the fourth 10-lap heat race. The Plymouth, Wis. driver's stellar heat race run gave him an outside front row starting spot in the six-lap dash. After placing second in the dash, Hartman launched from second in the 30-lap main event. After trailing Jack Croaker during the first three laps, Hartmann pounced to seize the lead on lap 4 and never looked back. The 2020 Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car Rookie of the Year endured a couple of caution and red flag periods over the final 26 laps to secure his maiden trip to victory lane. Hartmann opened the team's three-race Minnesota-North Dakota swing with a visit to Norman County Raceway in Ada, Minn., where 28 cars checked in for a Buffalo Wild Wings King of the Wings Midwest Sprint Touring Series and Northern Outlaw Sprint Car Association co-sanctioned event at the 3/8-mile semi-banked dirt oval. The Plymouth, Wis. driver drew the pole position for the second heat race in the qualifying-free race format. Hartmann led all eight laps of the race on the way to his first heat race victory of the 2026 campaign, and a berth in the six-lap dash to set the front four rows of the 25-lap A main. After placing seventh in the dash, Hartmann lined up from the inside of the fourth row for the main event. The seventh-year Sprint Car competitor endured a handful of caution periods to post a 12th-place showing. On Saturday, July 18, Hartmann tallied a fifth-place heat race finish before ending up 23rd in the main event at Buffalo River Speedway in Glyndon, Minn., to close out the tripleheader MSTS-NOSA King of the Wings weekend. "Man, what a weekend!" Hartmann said. "It started off with two blown drive tires on the truck on the way to Ada, Minnesota, on Thursday. Friday night at River Cities really was a perfect night. Everything really went our way, and that's what it takes to win these races. At the start of that feature, I knew the inside was going to fire off better, so I tucked in and waited for my opportunity in traffic. "Running 10-second laps while in traffic is no joke," he said. "It was super tough to navigate where the guys were going, but we were able to move around to get by them. It was like a weight lifted off my shoulders Friday night after the checkers. You put so much into this sport, and it'll show you time and time again that it owes you nothing. I'm super happy I could park it for my team and family. Without them, this isn't possible. We'll let this one soak in and gear up for a doubleheader this weekend." The 87A Hartmann Racing Team is slated to venture to the western part of Wisconsin this weekend for a pair of events with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association Sprint Car Series. On Friday, July 24, the team will compete at Mississippi Thunder Speedway in Fountain City, Wis., before traveling to Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wis., for the prestigious $10,000-to-win Jerry Richert Memorial on Saturday, July 25. 87A Hartmann Racing 2026 sponsorship partners include Kristine Hartmann, Realtor of Pleasantview Realty, Shufflebotham Tree Service, The Dispensary, Double A Autobody, Quasius Construction, Holler n' Hills, High Speed TI, Metalcraft, Hepfner Racing Products, Berryman Racing Shocks, and Keizer Racing Wheels.
