- SANDERS HOLDS OFF HOLMES TO CLAIM EPIC NARC MINI GOLD CUP THRILLER AT CHICO
(4/12/25 - Andrew Kunas) Chico, CA ... Fans at Silver Dollar Speedway were treated to a NARC 410 Sprint Car thriller and instant classic on Saturday night, as Justin Sanders fended off heavy traffic and a determined Tanner Holmes to win the Mini Gold Cup and a $10,000 payday. Sanders, who led the final 19 laps of the 40-lap race after taking the lead from Tim Kaeding, encountered slower traffic in the closing laps, allowing Holmes to close in rapidly. On the final lap, in the second turn of the quarter-mile bullring, Sanders drifted up as he tried to navigate around slower cars with Holmes getting a run around the top. The two cars making light contact with Sanders getting into the loose clay at the top, allowing Holmes to move by. Holmes, however, then had to deal with the slower cars, who were running in his preferred top and middle lines through the final two corners. Holmes made contact with one while Sanders, who favored the very bottom on that end of the racetrack, used it to get back by Holmes off of turn four to steal the win aboard the Yuba Sutter Aviation sponsored Mittry Motorsports No. 2x Fisher-powered Maxim. This finish sent the Silver Dollar Speedway crowd into a frenzy. "I kind of floated up," explained Sanders. "I knew that was the 21 car was coming. That motor rips so I could hear it behind me. Tanner got by me, and I can't believe he didn't run the bottom in three and four, and maybe that won us the race. He was running the middle, maybe to block a slider. We're happy to get this win. They're so hard to come by. We had a great car." Despite contact with the slower car, Holmes finished second aboard the American Rock & Rent sponsored Tarlton Motorsports No. 21 Kistler-powered Maxim and the driver from Jacksonville, Oregon received approval from the fans for his late efforts. "It felt like all weekend we were searching and searching," said Holmes, "and finally we put together a great second half." "I just made a mistake on my part (at the end)," Holmes continued. "If I could do it over, I'd do it over, but I'm proud of these 21 guys and we were right there at the end." Kaleb Montgomery raced in the Top 10 throughout the headliner and made late moves to get on the podium aboard the Hansen Machine sponsored McColloch Racing No. 17 Don Ott-powered Maxim. He made a late race pass for third around D.J. Netto. Netto, who won the season opening race at Stockton, ran as high as second before finishing fourth in the Penny Newman Grain sponsored Netto Ag No. 88N Rider-powered KPC. Tyler Thompson finished fifth aboard the HAM Construction sponsored Main Motorsports No. 35km Kistler-powered Maxim. Tanner Carrick, Shane Golobic, Tim Kaeding, Sean Becker, and Ryan Bernal rounded out the Top 10. Bernal earned the Williams Roofing Hard Charger nod, moving up seven positions to finish tenth. Bud Kaeding won the Winters Performance Last Chance Qualifier. Heat races were claimed by Montgomery, Holmes, Netto and Landon Brooks. Tyler Thompson set overall fast time in qualifying with a 11.698 second lap around the ¼-mile clay oval.

- O'Neal completes a sweep of 12th annual Spring Nationals at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 12, 2025) - Hudson O'Neal came to south-central Missouri in a self-proclaimed slump, winless and often non-competitive for more than two months. O'Neal left Lucas Oil Speedway with a momentum-turning sweep of the 12th annual Spring Nationals Presented by Iconic Apparel. The Martinsville, Ind., driver chased down race-long leader Brandon Overton on lap 43 and turned Night Two of the Spring Nationals into a rout from there, claiming the $20,000 prize in the unsanctioned feature for Open Late Models. After working to make the pass on Overton for several laps, O'Neal finally took over the top spot and went on to win by 3.5 seconds. The triumph, in his SSI Motorsports Longhorn chassis, was worth nearly triple his prize for Friday's $7,000 feature win. "I had a good race car again tonight," said O'Neal, the 2021 Show-Me 100 winner. "We didn't start on the front row, which was scary for a little bit at the beginning of the race. We shuffled back pretty good there, but thanks to all my guys. "Hopefully this is a good sign for the months to come. I've loved coming to this place since I was little." Overton used the outside line to earn the early lead with Tony Jackson Jr., following him from the outside of row two and Jonathan Davenport settling for third after one lap. That's when Jace Parmley rolled to a stop in turn one to bring out a quick caution. As action resumed, Davenport cruised around Jackson and began pursuit of Overton who opened a 1.3-second lead by lap five. Overton caught lapped cars by lap 13 as the race settled into a long green-flag run. Davenport took advantage to whittle the lead to under one second with O'Neal about another second back in third. Billy Moyer slowed on the front stretch of lap 22, bringing out the event's second caution and wiping out Overton's rebuilt-lead, which had expanded to 1.8 seconds. The restart saw Overton break away and open a 1.3-second lead by lap 26 when the race's third caution came out after Eli Ross spun in turn four. O'Neal took advantage of a good start from the inside on the restart to edge past Davenport for second with Marlar in fourth. "I was just lucky, I got to going through some lapped cars there and one of them got a really good run off the bottom," O'Neal said. "I thought, 'Man, if lapped cars are getting around off the bottom, then I think I can." O'Neal continued to dive low into the turns and started to cut into Overton's lead and was on his backside by lap 32. He pulled alongside several laps in a row, but was unable to make the pass out of turn four as the duo separated from Davenport and Marlar by two seconds. O'Neal finally made the inside pass for the lead out of turn four on lap 43, supplanting the race-long pacesetter. He worked through lapped traffic, was able to separate himself by one second by lap 48. As action remained caution-free the rest of the way, the 2021 Show-Me 100 winner poured it on and beat Overton, of Evans, Ga., by 3.56 seconds. "It's a hell of a lot better than we've been," Overton said of his finish, one spot better than Friday. "Just hats off to my crew. Everybody's been working really hard. We're making gains at it. "Good job by Hudson, he did a hell of a job. We're right there. I feel good about it." Marlar won the battle with Davenport in the final laps for third with Cade Dillard capturing fifth. "Jonathan and I was having a really good race there," Marlar said. "He kept stepping out trying to make some passes and I kind of slipped under him. It was a good race and I had a lot of fun out there. I'm glad to be on the podium." Forty entries were on hand for Night Two of the event, the only Lucas Oil Speedway action for Open Late Models prior to the 33rd annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Missouri Division of Tourism, May 22-24. "I've loved coming to this place since I was little," the 24-year-old O'Neal, whose father Don also was a Show-Me 100 winner, said when asked about returning for the $75,000-to-win Show-Me in just six weeks. "We're so, so excited to come back here. The tire rule is going to be a little bit different, but hopefully the stuff we learned this week will help us then." Davenport had the night's fastest qualifying lap with a time of 15.560 out of Group 1. Brandon Overton paced Group 2 at 16.118. Super Stocks win goes to Miller: Donnie Miller of West Plains won a thriller in the Hickamo Super Stocks feature, taking home the $1,000 prize. Miller took the lead on lap two from fellow front-row starter Tim Brown, lost it back to Brown on lap seven and regained it the next time around. Those two were separated by a quarter second when the first caution slow things on lap 10. Brown worked the inside after the restart to pull alongside Miller with Kyle Davis lurking right behind. Brown finally edged his way back into the lead coming to the start-finish line on lap 15 - but Miller took it back the next time around. A lap-17 caution set up a shootout for the win between the top three, which were separated by less than a quarter second. Miller won the sprint to the end, beating Davis by .492 seconds with Brown right behind. Blaine Ewing captured fourth with Derek Brown fifth. Throw in sixth-place Tony Anglin and the top half-dozen were separated by just under two seconds. "It was an awesome run. It seems like something always bites us here, but it didn't tonight," Miller said. "Any time I've been lucky enough to win $1,000 in a race car, I always get down on my knees on the front stretch and praise the Lord." Eickleberry picks up SMVR win: Chad Eickleberry of Warrensburg rallied from a 10th-starting position to win the Show-Me Vintage Racers feature, beating Owen Evinger by just under one second. While he has more than 100 career wins, Eickleberry said this one was special. "I always feel like the bridesmaid here. Every time I'm here, this is the only track I've raced at that I haven't won," Eickleberry said. Third-starting Dan Schmidt rolled into the lead on lap two, overtaking lap-one leader Beth Martin. By lap five, David Isaacs had moved from 11th to second and was closing in on Schmidt when the event's fourth caution flew on lap seven. A couple of laps after the restart, Eickleberry took over second from Isaacs with Damon Clevenger advancing into fourth. Eickleberry took the lead on lap 12 on another restart and held on over the final three laps to beat Evinger, who started 19th, by .827 seconds. Clevenger, Friday's feature winner, placed third with Isaacs finishing fourth and Schmidt fifth.

- Seth Standley strikes for first Ocean Sprints presented by Taco Bravo win Friday
Watsonville, CA…Yuba City's Seth Standley executed an early pass of Kurt Nelson and cruised away to score his first career Ocean Sprints presented by Taco Bravo triumph on opening night. He was joined in victory lane Friday by Robert Marsh with the IMCA Modifieds, Bo Crebs with the IMCA Sport Mods and Joshua Silva with the Four Bangers. Race fans were treated to excellent racing all night long during a smoothly run event on the pristinely prepared Watsonville bullring. Standley was aboard his familiar Salco Better Energy/ Swimming Pool Perfections No. 25 mount and made a great rebound after getting upside down the previous week during a heat race in Placerville. "It feels great to get my first ever Sprint Car win tonight here at Ocean Speedway," he commented on the front stretch. "We've been close in the past and had one thing or another take it away. I really want to thank my family and my entire team for all their hard work in getting me up here. To go from that heat race flip in Pville last week to a win in Watsonville is pretty surreal." Former Ocean Sprints presented by Taco Bravo champion Kurt Nelson snagged the early lead after winning the Gizdich Ranch Dash. Standley wasted little time however and showed his muscle by carving his way down low to take over the point after a few laps. Once out front Standley had his way with things and went on to cross under the Ed Entz checkered flag for the win over Nelson, last year's Ocean champ Caleb Debem, Jeremy Chisum and Jason Chisum. Jake Haulot began the evening by blistering the quarter mile for fast time, clocking an 11.083 during time trials. The 25-lap IMCA Modified finale featured a fantastic race that saw Robert Marsh of Salinas end up in victory lane. Jonathan Hagio of Prunedale took the lead at the waving of the green flag and set a fast pace over the early stages. Side by side racing and battles were seen all over the track for the Modifieds during their main event. Marsh reeled in Hagio and hounded his rear before taking command on lap number eight. Marsh proceeded to pull away but had to run some perfect laps towards the end as Bobby Hogge closed. The Salinas legend moved into second with six laps left and cut down a wide margin between the pair. Hogge would run out of time though as Marsh claimed the win by just over half a second. Hogge, Jim Pettit II, Jacob Mallet Jr. and Cody Burke rounded out the top five. The IMCA Sport Mods also provided an ultra-entertaining 20-lap main event on Friday. The intense feature saw Jim DiGiovanni lead the opening lap, until Trent Golden of Pittsburgh got by one circuit later. The well-prepared surface allowed the Sport Mods to utilize every inch of the Ocean Speedway bullring. With cars running high and low, Yreka driver Bo Crebs went to work on the leader and the duo proceeded to put on an excellent battle for the top spot. Golden and Crebs fought hard back and forth but showcased some clean racing in a fabulous tussle for the lead. Crebs took over for good on lap 13 and went on to take his initial Ocean Speedway win. "Captain Chaos" and opening night winner Danny Wagner came home second followed by Trevor Clymens, Rob Gallaher and Golden in the top five. The Four Bangers certainly gave fans their monies worth as well with a final lap photo finish at the line. Amaya Flower jumped out front right off the bat but felt pressure from Tony Gullo and a host of others. The 15-lap race had its share of excitement with the top four drivers racing closely together at times. TJ Santos and Joshua Silva hounded Flower over the waning circuits as the crowd came to its feet. Silva blasted by Santos and then moved alongside Flower coming down to the checkered. In a darn near dead heat, Silva was able to nip Flower at the scoring loop for the dramatic triumph. Santos, Gullo and Kate Beardsley completed the top five. Ocean Speedway will be dark this coming week for Easter, before resuming action with Little League Night at the Races on Friday April 25th.

- O'Neal tops Davenport on Night One of 12th annual Spring Nationals at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 11, 2025) - Hudson O'Neal emerged from an early duel with Jonathan Davenport and went on to prevail on Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway, capturing Night One of the 12th annual Spring Nationals Presented by Iconic Apparel. The Martinsville, Ind., driver pocketed $7,000 for the unsanctioned Open Late Model victory, beating Davenport by two seconds in a battle of former Show-Me 100 winners. A total of 43 Late Models checked into the pits for Night One. The stakes are higher on Saturday night with $20,000 going to the winner of a 60-lap main event. O'Neal started inside of Davenport on row one of Friday's 40-lapper and Davenport was credited with the lead by a few feet at the conclusion of the opening circuit. O'Neal used the inside line to inch in front the next time around and never surrendered the top spot the rest of the way. "It's been a rocky start to the season," O'Neal said in victory lane, "but being able to hire Jason Durham and Todd Burns ... everybody has done a great job. They've given me a great crew that's behind and they've worked their tails off. I appreciate all my guys." O'Neal, 23, drives for Burns' SSI Motorsports, with Durham named the new crew chief earlier this season. The team's last win was s. 28, but it has made obvious gains with the impressive run at the home of the Show-Me 100. Davenport, of Blairsville, Ga., said he got into O'Neal slightly going into turn three in the early going as he tried to regain the lead, but fortunately both cars came away unscathed by the close shave that left a small racing stripe on the side of his car. "He was really good, for sure," Davenport said of O'Neal. "I couldn't believe the bottom was that good when we first took off. Once he did get by me, I could move into his lane and he was still a little better than we was. "I'm just gonna go back and we're gonna make us a drink and think about this." O'Neal opened a 1.3-second lead over Davenport by lap eight as lapped traffic began to play a factor. O'Neal maneuvered through the slower cars, though Davenport began to cut into the margin a bit by lap 15. The difference was back to 1.5 seconds at the halfway mark as the action remained caution-free. Brandon Overton advanced to third by that point with Mike Marlar fourth. O'Neal narrowly avoided a disaster on lap 28 when Scott Crigler suddenly slowed, right in front of him coming off turn two. O'Neal yanked to the outside of Crigler in time to avoid contact, but a caution flew as Crigler's car limped to the edge of he infield before rolling to a stop. The caution wiped out a 2.4-second lead and gave Davenport's chances life with 12 laps remaining. Davenport opted to start outside of turn two with Overton to the inside, but O'Neal nailed the restart and needed just three laps to open a 1.2-second lead. With a clear track ahead, O'Neal hit his marks from there as action remained under green. The 2021 Show-Me 100 winner beat Davenport, the reigning Show-Me 100 champ, by 2.074 seconds. "This feels like so much bigger than $7,000 for us," O'Neal said. "We're excited about the future. We've always enjoyed coming here. The race track was pretty good and we were able to put on a good show. "I was a little nervous about when J.D. got the start on me at the beginning. He's a tough one whenever he gets out front. We were able to find the bottom a little earlier than those guys and were able to work back by him." Added Davenport: "The race track was awesome. I think it would have been even better the longer we went. Hats off to the track crew and thanks to my guys, they gave me another great race car." Overton was about one second behind Davenport for third with Marlar fourth and Mason Oberkramer fifth after starting 10th. The top two were speedy from the start of the night. O'Neal set the fast overall qualifying time with a lap of 15.434 in Group 2. Davenport had quick time in Group 1 at 15.549. Super Stocks win to Hays: Jared Hays of Jonesboro, Ark., captured the $650 first prize in the Hickamo Super Stocks, beating Brian Worley by just over one second in the 20-lap feature. The sixth-starting Hays worked his way into the lead on lap five, getting around pole-starting J.T. Carroll who led the first four circuits. Hays had a 3.3-second lead over Tony Anglin when a caution flew on lap 13. He handled the restart and drove away to win by 1.1 seconds over Brian Worley with Kyle David third, time Brown fourth and Carroll fifth. "This one's been a long time coming here. We've been short so many times and we finally got the win here," Hays said in victory lane. The Super Stocks will run for $1,000-to-win on Saturday. Clevenger wins SMVR feature: Seventh-starting Damon Clevenger of Parkville took command in the early stages and rolled to the Show-Me Vintage Racers feature win. Clevenger passed Mickie Cook on the outside heading into turn three to take over the lead on lap five. Clevenger, in his 1939 Chevy Sedan, set sail from there and breezed over the final 10 laps to beat Chad Eickleberry by a 5.9-second margin at the finish. David Isaacs finished third with John Martin fourth and Bryant Moyer fifth. "We love having the opportunity to race at Lucas Oil Speedway," Clevenger said after winning a feature at the track for a third straight year.

- High School Dirt Racing in Ohio
Earning a varsity letter in highschool is something a lot of kids experience. Usually it's earned in Football, Band, Cross Country, Basketball, etc. Now, students in Southern Ohio have a chance to earn a varsity letter in dirt track racing. Yes, you read that right. A varsity letter in dirt track racing. Atomic Speedway, just south of Chillicothe, Ohio is working on the SMART Mod program, which will give high school students access to everything related to dirt track racing. The kicker? They'll be going up against other local high schools for all the bragging rights in what is a first-of-its-kind program in the United States. "For a couple years now, this idea has been blossoming," said Charlie Vest, Owner of Atomic Speedway. "My cousin is a superintendent, so I've been running liability ideas off of him. Finally, we got to the point where we had a plan and this program came together. Everybody who races knows that you learn every day; you're always trying to get faster, being creative with your setups. So why wouldn't we teach these kids early on that regardless of what you're doing in life, you're always going to be learning something?" Vest has wanted to get the kids involved in racing in Southern Ohio since buying Atomic Speedway a few years ago. He has plans to build a kids track behind the 3/8ths mile oval to give the kids a place to race. In most areas, kids have decent access to go-kart tracks or quarter midget tracks, but it's more of an anomaly in Southern Ohio. Giving these kids, the future of the sport, an opportunity to learn about racing and be involved in racing-behind the wheel of a race car or not- is one of the main goals of the SMART Mod program. What is the SMART Mod Program? Atomic Speedway has purchased a handful of Sport Mod cars, which will be housed in local racers shops, detuned, and with all the top-notch safety features, including STIDA Insurance. The cars are all built the same with the same motors, tires, and suspension components, so no school has a clear-cut advantage. Every student that is interested in being on the team will be able to hop in the iRacing simulator, where Charlie will help determine, based off of lap times, who will be on the Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Reserve teams. The students with the best lap times will be eligible to be the primary driver, or the reserve driver. The unique part is, even if a student is on the team for PR or design purposes, they still get simulator time, and could end up behind the wheel of the actual car. Charlie is working directly with schools to develop a curriculum that benefits both the students, and the schools. Charlie has also talked to the University of Northwestern Ohio [UNOH], a college in Lima, Ohio well-known for its motorsports programs and operation of Limaland Motorsports Park, to see what UNOH is looking for in high school students coming to their programs to better suit everyone's needs. "As this came together, the competition at the track became less important, and the education became way more important. Not only do we want kids to learn, we want them to understand how many jobs there are in the racing industry as a whole. My crew chief that I had when I had my [Nascar] Truck team is now the head shock guy at 23XI [Nascar Cup Team]. We were talking in Charlotte, and he had these kids working on the computer simulator, and you have all these departments. Almost everything that you can imagine if you want to work professionally, if you're an artist, a computer geek, an engineer, a tradesman, it doesn't matter what you are, if you want to be in the racing industry, you can do it," Vest said. "That's what spawned this idea. We're going to show these kids that even on a weekly racing deal, that even with a Sport Mod, there's a place where you fit. You want to design race cars? You fit. You want to understand engineering and the physics of the car and the math of the setup? You fit. There's so many cool ways to participate in racing. That's where the gears really started turning for this program. The program is driven more by the education than the competition," Vest continued. "Once we can get the kids to understand that you're an artist, and you're a part of this team, and you're going to design the race car, you're going to design the press releases, or the print, or the social media. There are so many avenues to be a part of it and grow as you further your education. All the facets coming together has been awesome. The welding kids, the hospitality kids, you have your EMS and police officers, and it's all relevant. Now, we aren't just talking about race cars, we're talking about race tracks. Now we have all these kids that want to do AV, and now FloRacing is intrigued because it's up their alley. I've really just taken racing as something really cool and fun to do, and we're showing how racing can be involved in almost any career path for you." Once the SMART Mod program gets to the point of racing, they'll take to the track on Wednesday nights, with each school potentially having a varsity, junior varsity, and reserve team, with each team having a primary and reserve driver. If the primary driver wins one night, then the reserve driver takes the wheel the next race night. They'll compete for points as if it were a regular division at Atomic Speedway, and a champion will be crowned at the Speedway's banquet in the off-season, just like the 410, late model, modified or sport mod teams. There are some hurdles though. As Charlie said in his interview, "The schools are a little timid, and the insurance guys are jerks." Then, Charlie said something that makes a lot of sense about what this program is about, and how racers are as a whole: "I told them, put them on my insurance, I don't care. We're racers, we understand the liability, and most people don't, because they don't understand racing. I can promise you, that based on these risk assessments, racing is half as risky as gymnastics. These kids aren't going to be going fast. I could probably pass them in my Jeep. If I could just get these people to the track, put them in a car, and show them what they're going to do, I could calm them all down and get them to understand. It's racing, and it seems dangerous and on the edge, and I get it, but these aren't 410 sprint cars, they're sport mods." For Vest and company though, the obstacles are just a minor blip on the radar when it comes to the overall goals for the SMART Mod program. The goals extend beyond Atomic Speedway, Southern Ohio, and Ohio as a whole. Vest envisions this kind of program across the nation, and as a program that can convene to crown a state champion and even a national champion. But that's the competition side, and as Charlie said, the program is driven more by the education than the competition. "Year one, I just want to get the damn thing off the ground and I want to get the kids involved," Vest started in about his goals. "I want a lot of excitement and I want to get the kids that have disengaged, reengaged in the education system. If we can get them to understand that it's not just the jocks or the or the smart kids that can excel in education. I want the artsy kids that would never talk to the welding kids and appreciate what each one does. That's something you don't learn until you're older." Vest pointed out an example of the race car driver appreciating what the wrap-designer does, because someone may be able to drive the wheels off of a race car, but they can't draw a stickman to save their life. "I want to get it off the ground and have a truly successful and safe year one. I'd like to grow it and have five schools in ten states in the next year or two. I'd love to have statewide races and a national championship and have this program become a standard and viable sport once we get the schools to come to the fact that racing isn't as dangerous and isn't everything that they think it is. It gets more people involved because it isn't a strict 'you have to be an athlete or have to be this or that' to succeed. Racing has a much bigger place at the table than where it does right now." "It's about being there, being part of the deal, and understanding that you want that team environment. You want them to understand that when a quarter panel gets ripped off, or the front end gets tore up, that it takes four or five guys or girls thrashing to get that car back out," Vest said. The local race teams have also volunteered to help out with this program, which was one of the gaps Vest needed to fill as he has brought this idea to life. The SMART Mod program will have a mentorship aspect to it, and the cars will stay at the local teams shops. The racers will mentor the schools to teach them the racing side, and it doesn't stop there. Atomic's graphic designer for their banners will be in charge of the creative aspects of the program and can help show the kids how certain things are done, and why certain things are taught in school. He can show the students his graphic design shop and show the students how the basics are applied in his shop. There are a lot of moving parts in this project, but these moving parts are all working towards a common goal promoting racing and getting more kids involved in racing. A big, remarkable step that Atomic Speedway owner Charlie Vest is taking towards this goal is making this program a template, so that any track in the nation can plug in this program and race. Charlie is doing the leg work and figuring out how to answer the tough questions from the schools and insurance companies, and trying to make this program as accessible as possible, at no cost. "My goal was to get these companies like My Race Pass involved and a part of this templating, so I can build this structure into something like My Race Pass, so all of the formalities of this process and procedure are built in, and say when Skyline Speedway wants to do this down near Athens, Ohio, I can give them the package on My Race Pass and it has all the structure you need for a race night," said Vest. "By the way, we've done the hard work with the insurance companies, and have done the legwork with why they're going to tell you no, and what their excuses are for this and what excuses are for that. Here's your packet of information, so that when you go before a school board or a superintendent, you have everything you're going to need; the structure of the creative arts program, the things you're going to want to get the kids to understand and entice them to design. As we work through this platform this year, we'll have some key points we can put together and pass on to the other tracks. We can give them the entire program, all you have to do is plug this in at your racetrack and have a representative go out and talk to the schools. Here is your platform, here is the template, here is the structure, the education. UNOH is backing it, everybody's behind it, they believe in the curriculum and in what we're doing. It takes all of the hard parts that we've fought the last six months for away. All we have to do is hand them some three ring binders, tell them that Atomic has done this and no kids were hurt. Here are some pictures, here are some videos, here are some grants you can get. It's a great deal because the schools don't get charged," continued Vest "That's the template that we're building. I could call Husets and say 'Hey, you have to do this, it's awesome,' and they can go to ten schools and they have the template and they can plug and play. When somebody says something like 'We've been dealing with these insurance companies,' we can show them where that's been addressed and move on. We're doing the hard work, because I really, really want racing to be more of the norm when we start talking about education. We can do it because if we build the cars right and do it right, they're safe." The SMART Mod program is a very ambitious program, but one thing I learned during the interview with Charlie Vest is that he has thought about everything that could pertain to this. I had plenty of follow-up questions about curriculum or local team involvement that he answered before I could even ask. There hasn't been a stone left unturned with this program, and it is being put together for all the right reasons. As people's interests and motivations change, racing has to find a way to keep their place at the table, and as Charlie said, earn the bigger spot that racing deserves. That means getting students, parents, teachers, administrators and even state government officials involved. Get them involved to see what racing truly is; not the dangerous crashes and near-misses we see in compilations on YouTube or TikTok, but all the hard work, education, teamwork, and camaraderie between so many different facets of life to get a local race team to the track every Friday and Saturday night.

- Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: No slowing down for Wells heading into Spring Nationals
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 9, 2025) - Justin Wells jokes that it's a shame a milestone birthday is in the not-too-distant future. The half-century mark can be daunting. No matter the chosen occupation, it is supposed to mean a slower pace. But Wells, 48, instead is ready to pick up the pace in 2025. He plans a semi-regular schedule of Open Late Model racing after dominating en route to back-to-back Hermitage Lumber Late Model track championships at Lucas Oil Speedway. The Ozarks Area Racers Foundation Hall of Famer from Aurora, a one-time force on the regional racing scene, flashed that he still had the ability last October with runs of third and fourth in the Lucas Oil MLRA Fall Nationals at Lucas Oil Speedway. "That's what we're building on," Wells said this week. "It's been a long time since we concentrated on Super Late Model racing. I've got the best cars and best motors and best of everything that I've ever owned. "It's a shame that I'm getting close to 50," he added with a chuckle. "I want to give it a whirl before … I'm not saying that I'm ready to quit, but I don't have a ton of racing left in me. Me and my wife (Missy) talked and with my crew guys and we said, 'Let's give it all we've got and if it don't work out, that's all right. If it does, that's gonna be cool.'" Wells is looking forward to mixing it up with an expected top-notch field at the 12th annual Lucas Oil Speedway Spring Nationals Presented by Iconic Apparel, this Friday and Saturday. With the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series off this week, defending Show-Me 100 winner Jonathan Davenport and other national-touring drivers are expected, with top prizes of $7,000 on Friday and $20,000 on Saturday. "Everybody wants to tune up for the Show-Me 100 and I think you're going to draw a lot of good guys, like Davenport and some of them. It should be a good show for the fans," Wells said. After winning 23 feature races in the Weekly Racing Series at Lucas Oil Speedway the last two years, Wells said he doesn't have a lot of home-track advantage because the power of the Open Late Models make it a different ballgame compared to the limited motor. Wells is looking forward to putting his focus on the open division this season. He said he has two open motors available for his two cars - a 2006 TNT chassis that he calls "Old Faithful" that has 116 feature wins and a TNT he debuted last year by making the Show-Me 100 starting field, plus the strong Fall Nationals runs. "Mainly that's all we're gonna do this year," he said of open racing. "We're just hit anything within about a three-hour radius and try that this year. "The Old Faithful car, we're gonna take our open motor that we ran last year and put that in it … and we're gonna run the new ULRA Series and Revival Series and and use that car for the smaller tracks. "These motors any more, they so high-dollar that you have to have a reason to run 'em. You can't just take it to a $1,000 or $1,500 to win show. There's got to be some money on the line where you think you have a chance to win something." Wells broke out the newer car last earlier this spring at Springfield Raceway, but struggled with finishes outside the top 10. He figured to be better prepared for this weekend. "We're jacked up about it," Wells said. "We didn't start off very good at Springfield, but it was mainly because we weren't really ready to go. Now we've had these three weeks off and I feel good about where we're at." The Hickamo Super Stocks also will be in action both nights, chasing $650 to win on Friday and $1,000-to-win on Saturday. The Show-Me Vintage Racers complete the show lineups on both nights. The first 500 fans through the gate receive a free 2025 Lucas Oil Speedway schedule magnet courtesy of City Magnet. Pit gates and grandstands open at 4 p.m. both days with hot laps at 6:30 and opening ceremonies set for 7. A practice session will be held on Thursday from 6-9 p.m. Pit passes are $35.

- Open Late Models invade Lucas Oil Speedway for Spring Nationals this weekend
WHEATLAND, MO. (April 8, 2025) - Some of the fastest Open Late Models in the land are expected to roll into Lucas Oil Speedway this Friday and Saturday for the 12th annual Spring Nationals Presented by Iconic Apparel. Healthy paydays will be on the line with $7,000 going to Friday's 40-lap feature winner and $20,000 awaiting the winner of Saturday night's 60-lap main event. With the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series off this week, several series regulars are expected. That includes three-time LOLMDS champion and reigning Show-Me 100 winner Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga. Davenport already has four feature wins on national tours in 2025. Also announcing via Facebook his intention to enter is Chad Simpson, winner of the last three Lucas Oil MLRA season championships. The Mount Vernon, Iowa won five MLRA titles before the series ended following the 2024 season. Davenport, who also won the 2015 Show-Me 100, is especially formidable at Lucas Oil Speedway. He's won eight times there since the spring of 2023, including both halves of the Spring Nationals a year ago when the event was sanctioned by the Midwest Late Model Racing Association. During an interview earlier this spring for the Show-Me 100 souvenir program, Davenport said he cannot put his finger on why he's been so dominant there the last couple of years - especially considering the chameleon-like conditions that drivers often encounter there. "It's just a race track that changes a lot throughout the night," Davenport said. "A lot of times when we get there, the track prep crew preps the track in different ways. You never know exactly what you're going to get, but however it starts out is not what you're going to get at the end. They have the ability and the equipment to go out there and re-work it several times throughout the night. 'It's a constantly changing track, so you're all the time chasing the set-up with the car to try and keep up with the track conditions." The Hickamo Super Stocks also will be in action both nights, chasing $650 to win on Friday and $1,000-to-win on Saturday. The Show-Me Vintage Racers complete the show lineups on both nights. The first 500 fans through the gate receive a free 2025 Lucas Oil Speedway schedule magnet courtesy of City Magnet. Pit gates and grandstands open at 4 p.m. both days with hot laps at 6:30 and opening ceremonies set for 7. A practice session will be held on Thursday from 6-9 p.m. Pit passes are $35.

- Spring Sprint Special Is Friday At Williams Grove 410 sprints, PASS IMCA 305 sprints in action April 11, 410 make-up main added
Mechanicsburg - Williams Grove Speedway will host the Associated Builders and Contractors Spring Sprint Special coming up this Friday, April 11 at 7:30 pm. On the track will be the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars and the PASS IMCA 305 sprint cars. The 410 sprints will not only be competing in a full program as part of the special but the division will also be completing the opening night feature held over from April 4. Matt Campbell was leading the April 4 opening night event when rains halted action with five laps completed. The wingless sportsman have been removed from the racing program this week due to time constraints while fans instead get a chance to see a pair of 410 sprint mains take to the track. Williams Grove and sportsman series officials are working together in an effort to find a make-up date for the wingless super sportsman. As part of the regular program, the 410 sprint cars will vie in the first Yellow Breeches 500 event of the season, offering $5,000 to win and $500 just to start the 25-lap main event. In addition, Williams Grove has increased purses for each of the Yellow Breeches races to be held at the track this season. A total of $4,000 has been added to each of the Yellow Breeches purses, to be distributed starting with the second finishing position while finding even the 10th place finisher earning a cool $1,000. Timed hot lap periods will set the heat starting grids for the 410 sprints with hot lap groups set via pill draw. Event sponsor Associated Builders and Contractors is a national U.S. trade association representing the non-union construction industry. ABC is an association of 69 chapters with more than 22,000 commercial contractors and construction-related firms among its members. Visit www.abc.org to learn more. Adult general admission for April 11 is $25 with youth ages 13 - 20 admitted for just $10. Kids ages 12 and under are always FREE at Williams Grove Speedway. Gates will open at 5:30 pm. Rainchecks from April 4 will not be honored due to 50% of the racing program having been completed on that date. The Joe Harz Family will present the Tommy Hinnershitz Classic for 410 sprints at Williams Grove on April 18, paying $8,088 to win. The race will be the first of the 2025 Hoosier Diamond Series at the oval and street stocks will also be on the racing card.

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

- NARC HEAD TO OCEAN SPEEDWAY ON FRIDAY FOR THE SPRINT CAR "SPRING FLING" RACE
(3/31/25 - Andrew Kunas) Watsonville, CA … After a few weeks off, the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series returns to action when it opens the month of April with a Friday night showdown at Ocean Speedway on April 4th. Friday's Spring Fling is the first of a series-high five races scheduled at the ¼-mile Watsonville, California clay oval, which has long been a staple on the NARC tour. This comes after just one NARC race was held in Watsonville last year, when eventual series champion Justin Sanders picked up the big Howard Kaeding Classic victory in July. In 2025, race fans in the Monterey Bay area will be treated to much more winged 410 sprint car action, and it begins Friday night. NARC was scheduled to also race this Saturday, April 5th at the Stockton Dirt Track, where the series opened its season on March 8th, but a recent electrical fire at the San Joaquin Fairgrounds has left the facility unsafe to use for at least the next couple of weeks, forcing the cancellation of Saturday's event. Hanford driver D.J. Netto, with his win at Stockton in March, is the NARC points leader going into Friday's event with a four-point advantage over Shane Golobic of Fremont. Netto knows Ocean Speedway well as he is also a former feature winner there aboard the Netto Ag No. 88n. Golobic and the Matt Wood Racing No. 17w team should be competitive at Ocean Speedway as well, as they were Howard Kaeding Classic winners in Watsonville just two years ago. Justin Sanders and the Mittry Motorsports No. 2x team is also looking to bounce back in a big way after his untimely spin out while running second in the season opening race at Stockton. Sanders was battling hard, trying to pass Netto for the lead in traffic, when he spun out as he tried to pass a lapped car. He eventually finished 15th and is looking for an immediate turnaround with his Mittry Motorsports team. WHO TO WATCH One driver that many fans will be keeping an eye on this weekend is Kaleb Montgomery. The young Templeton, California driver turned in a solid performance in the NARC season opener, driving from 15th to finish fourth in the main event at Stockton. Just a couple of weeks later, Montgomery turned a lot of eyes by making the dash and then turned in an impressive fifth place finish in the main event with the High Limit Racing series at Perris Auto Speedway. The strong runs have Montgomery feeling confident as he pursues his first NARC victory aboard his Montgomery Racing No. 3. A change in philosophy by Montgomery may be a factor as well. "I'm just having fun with my family," Montgomery said last week. "I traded my goals in a race night for standards, and as long as I meet my standards, (I believe) the wins will come." Another driver and team due to hit it big is Jacksonville, Oregon's Tanner Holmes and the Tarlton Motorsports No. 21 team, who are running a partial schedule together. After difficulties in the NARC season opener at Stockton, the team found success during High Limit's run through California in March, with Holmes earning fourth and fifth place finishes at Thunderbowl Raceway and Kevin Harvick's Kern Raceway, respectively, and then running second place most of the way at Perris Auto Speedway before losing a right rear tire on a rubber down track. The Tarlton Motorsports team has long been no stranger to success with NARC, winning the series titles in 2015 and 2016, and nearly won the NARC title last year with Cole Macedo (now on the World of Outlaws tour.) A full field of sprint car teams are expected to fill the pit area. Other drivers expected to compete on Friday night include Roseville's Sean Becker, Tim Kaeding of San Jose, Oakley's Dylan Bloomfield, Tanner Carrick of Lincoln, Clovis drivers Dominic Gorden and Mariah Ede, Bud Kaeding of Campbell, Arizona driver Ashton Torgerson, Landon Brooks from Rio Oso, Tyler Thompson from Oregon, Lemoore's Caeden Steele, Gauge Garcia of Fresno, Benicia's Billy Aton and many more. FAN INFO Friday's event at Ocean Speedway will see IMCA sport mods, hobby stocks and the South Bay Dwarf Cars on the card with NARC. Front gates open at 4:30pm, qualifying begins at 6:00 p.m., followed by racing at 7:00 pm. Fans who cannot make it in person can watch live on www.floracing.com. FloRacing livestreams all NARC shows.

- Chisholm prevails on Night 2 of USMTS King of America XIV at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 28, 2025) - Score Night Two of the USMTS King of America XIV as a victory for the reigning United States Modified Touring Series champion. Jim Chisholm of Osage, Iowa, led all 40 laps to earn the $5,000 first prize, but it wasn't necessarily an easy drive for the 22-year-old who broke onto the national scene a year ago. He had to withstand five restarts while leading and was up to the challenge on each. "They gave us another great race track," Chisholm said in victory lane. "I think we ran every single line on this thing tonight. We're super-excited for tomorrow." Saturday night's finale will be a $20,000-to-win event for the Summit USMTS Modifieds. "The King of America and the Jamboree are super-big USMTS races and drivers showed up this weekend," Chisholm said. "There's a lot of talent that didn't make the show tonight. There's a lot of talent that should be in the show, but it's hard sledding." Reece Solander from Emporia, Kan., wound up second after threatening Chisholm's lead over the second half of the 40-lapper. Chisholm rolled off from the pole and led Nathan Smith in the sprint into turn one and was in front of Stormy Scott by .354 seconds as the first caution came out on lap four. Smith got past Scott on the restart, but Chisholm took advantage of those two battling for second to run off to a two-second command by lap 10. Following the second caution, Scott regained second with Chad Wheeler in third, but Chisholm's lead grew to just under a second by the race's midway point on lap 20. Solander roared past Scott on the top side for second on lap 22 and began to close in on the leader, applying all-out pressure for the lead. Chisholm repelled the charge and by the three-tenths of the second on lap 26 when the event's third caution flew. Chisholm chose the low side on the double-file restart and held off Solander when a multi-car incident once again slowed the action. Chisholm led by three car lengths with 10 to go with Wheeler running just behind Solander. "I like to be able to choose for the bottom for starts like that," Chisholm said of his strategy. "If you have a guy below you, you have to worry about running over him and hurting your equipment so I had a couple of really good restarts doing it that way and stayed with it." Chisholm, who won USMTS races on back-to-back nights last August at Lucas Oil Speedway, joked that "the best spotters" in the sport are in Wheatland meaning the giant jumbotron overlooking turn three. He was able to spy Solander making a strong charge. "It's very clear when someone's coming up on you," Chisholm said. "You know you're in the good when they don't show you. You just watch it lap after lap and it kind of lets you know." As the race remained green, Chisholm gradually pulled away and had a 1.3-second command by a fifth caution wiped out his margin out on lap 33. Just as he did time and again, Chisholm was flawless as the green waved and drove away over the final laps to beat Solander by 1.8 seconds. Solander, not far removed from running USRA B-Mods, was thrilled with his strong run. "I think Jim might have been watching the jumbotron, but my right-rear tire went away any way, so I don't know if we would have had him," Solander said, adding that "it's pretty cool" to have such a strong USMTS run. "We were hoping for a win, but we'll definitely take a second. That feels like a success to us," Solander said. Cade Dillard, winner of Thursday's King of America opener, rallied from 10th to third, with Scott fourth and Kyle Strickler fifth. A total of 182 cars were entered in the three divisions, including 72 Summit Shootout Modifieds. Sheets earns B-Mods triumph: Jon Sheets of Nevada moved from a ninth-starting position to take over the lead by lap seven. He led it from there to earn the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod 25-lap feature win. Sheets beat runner-up Kris Jackson of Lebanon, winner of Thursday's B-Mod feature, by 3.5 seconds. The win was worth $2,000 to Sheets, who said he was confident despite starting on row five. "We had a great car from the git-go," Sheets said. "We started ninth. Patience was the key. It didn't take long to get to fourth, then we got to third and had a good restart and kind of set sail from there." Dan Hovden grabbed third with Jake Richards fourth and Scott Bintz finishing fifth. USRA Stock Cars win to Abbey: Jeffrey Abbey finished exactly where he started. The pole-starter led all 25 circuits to outdistance Jaylen Wettengel for the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars feature win. Abbey, who just missed a win in Thursday's King of America opener, left no doubt this time while earning $2,000 - thought he lead of nearly two seconds with 10 to go shrunk to just .445 seconds over the hard-charging Wettengel by the finish. Wettengel started 15th. "I don't really like starting on the front row like that. You don't really know where to go," Abbey said, noting this weekend is his first time at Lucas Oil Speedway. "I went up top and about lost the lead. I was able to get back down, get out front and roll the bottom." Darrin Schmidt finished third with Rodney Schweitzer fourth and Pat Graham fifth.

- King of America XIV opens at Lucas Oil Speedway with Dillard taking USMTS Modified win
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 27, 2025) - Race-long leader and apparent winner Dustin Sorensen's post-race trip to the tech building left Cade Dillard the big winner as the three-night USMTS King of America XIV opened Thursday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Dillard, of Robeline, La., was elevated from runner-up at the checkered flag to the $3,000 Summit USMTS Modified feature winner after Sorensen's car was disqualified in post-game inspection for a technical violation. The duo waged an epic battle in the 30-lap feature, especially on a restart with seven laps remaining. Dillard, trying to chase down and pass Sorensen, threw a big slide job in turn three only to see Sorensen cross back over. Sorensen was able to gradually pull away from there for an apparent victory by 1.7 seconds. But about a half-hour later, it was Dillard who was crowned the Night One winner. Terry Phillips, who pressured Dillard in the final few laps, officially wound up in second with Keith Foss third, Tanner Mullens fourth and Rodney Sanders fifth. Sanders, the USMTS national points leader, rallied from a 15th-starting position. Dillard said the battle with Sorensen was fun, even though he came up a bit short on the race track. "It's a blast," Dillard said. "Luckily the track was that racy. Dustin had a good car and congrats to him. We'll take a second. There's a lot of stacked cars here. That's how good our car is. We'll just keep tweaking on it and get better." Round two is set for Friday night with $5,000 going to the winner with a first prize of $20,000 at stake in Saturday night's finale. Jackson earns B-Mod feature win: Eighth-starting Kris Jackson of Lebanon worked his way toward the front and passed race-long leader Aaron Marrant on lap 15 to capture the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod main event. Jackson give a shout-out in victory lane to sponsor and engine builder Jim Ruble, who celebrated his 86th birthday on Thursday. Marrant started up front and set the pace, but Jackson - buoyed by a lap-11 caution - closed in and caught Marrant and made the winning pass on the inside with five to go to earn the $1,000 victory. Marrant finished two seconds behind Jackson to settle for second. Jon Sheets was third with Tyler Kidwell fourth and Chad Clancy fifth. Stock Cars win goes to Green: Derek Green of Grenada, Minn., took over the lead on lap six and held it the rest of the way, finishing 4.3 seconds in front of Jeffrey Abbey in the O'Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Cars 20-lap feature. Abbey, of Rhome, Texas, held off Brandon Hare for third with Pat Graham capturing fourth and Jaylen Wettengel fifth. "I figured with Abbey in front of me, ah, he's gone," the fourth-starting Green said of the early going. "This is kind of his type of race track. To be able to get by him and get the win is pretty awesome."

- Lucas Oil Speedway Spotlight: Chisholm rolls into King of America XIV with big momentum
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 25, 2025) - Just a few days after earning a career-defining financial haul in the Dirt Modified world, Jim Chisholm knows it's time to turn the page and focus on the King of America XIV at Lucas Oil Speedway. The three-night United States Modified Touring Series show opens on Thursday with a $3,000-to-win feature and picks up momentum with a $5,000 prize to Friday's winner. Of course, all eyes will be on the $20,000-to-win prize in Saturday's grand finale. For the 22-year-old Chisholm, who broke through in 2024 to win the USMTS National Championship, confidence is running high. The Osage, Iowa, native took command with a couple of laps remaining to capture $100,000 at last Saturday's XR Dominator at Salina Highbanks Speedway in Pryor, Okla. "Monetary-wise, the biggest for sure," Chisholm said of where the win ranks on his career list. "Definitely one of the biggest races of my career going forward and might ever be. Just a really cool thing to have them put on shows like this and race for that kind of money. "The confidence is definitely there. It's a short turnaround, but we have short turnarounds a lot. You always come back to the shop and regroup. What happened last week is last week and you really can't take that into consideration this week. You just go at this next race like it's another big one and try your best to win it." Dan Ebert of Lake Shore, Minn., is reigning champion of the USMTS portion of the King of America with a win in 2023 as last year's event was rained out at Humboldt Speedway. There have been 11 different winners over the years as the best of Modified racing gather for the early season showdown. The event will include USRA Stock Cars paying $1,000-to-win Thursday, $2,000-to-win Friday and $3,000 to win Saturday. USRA B-Mods will be paying $1,000 to win Thursday, $2,000 to win Friday and $3,000 to win Saturday. For Chisholm, the move of the King of America to Lucas Oil Speedway for the first time seems particularly timely. The south-central Missouri oval is a place that Chisholm never cared for - until last summer when he swept USMTS features on back-to-back nights at Wheatland. The opener saw him prevail over veteran Terry Phillips in a back-and-forth duel over the last half of the race. That one was named Lucas Oil Speedway's 2024 Race of the Year. Chisholm said he doesn't have a good answer for why his fortunes suddenly took a positive turn at Wheatland, though a new dirt surface for the 2024 season could have played a factor. "It definitely drove like it was new dirt and reminded a lot of what we run at home," Chisholm said. "It's stuff you can't push your stuff that hard. If you push, you go slower. It kind of fits into my driving style. Just finding the limit of the car you can run it at and not overstepping that boundary. "It raced super good last year. We were luckily able to start up front some of those shows and have good runs. That's kind of the goal we're setting for ourselves this time as well. I'm super-excited to come back there." Chisholm returns as the defending USMTS champion after edging out Jake Timm for his first championship. The title meant a ton for a youngster who grew up watching the USMTS stars visit nearby Deer Creek Speedway in family outings to the track. "It was one of those deals you watch them do the four-wide salute and you're like 'one of these days I want to be able to do that.' To be able to go out and win a couple of shows and be a contender in the points was huge, but to win the championship I'm still pretty speechless about that," Chisholm said. "There are a bunch of guys that are super fast and really tough to beat week in and week out. It's always a lot of fun to run with a group of guys who run so well together. You kind of know what to expect from them. They run you really hard and you run them really hard. At the end of the day, you go over and talk to them and go on to the next win." Which is exactly what he will try to do, putting that six-figure pay day behind him. "As marquee events go this King of America kind of ranks with the Fall Jamboree," Chisholm said. "It's the two original big Modified races. It's one of our biggest races of the year with the USMTS Series. We're gonna come out trying to win it, just like everyone else." With only three events in the books so far on the USMTS schedule, Chisholm is a mere nine points behind five-time series champ Rodney Sanders. Not only is it way too early to talk points, Chisholm said he despises points racing any time of the year. Winning is the sole focus in his mind. "To be honest, I think points racing is dumb and to act like you're racing for points will only end up hurting you," Chisholm said. "Every time you're at the race track your goal is to win. If you keep that in mind, the other stuff just kind of works out. Our goal every time is to try and win the race. If we come up short, we come up short and we'll try again next week." Spectator gates open at 4 p.m. each day with hot laps at 6:30 and racing to follow. Action kicks off with a Wednesday practice session from 6-9 p.m. Pits will open at 3 p.m. with a drivers' meeting at 5:45.

- Moran Goes Back-to-Back in Brownstown's Indiana Icebreaker
BROWNSTOWN, IN (March 22, 2025) - Devin Moran spent several years striving to win a Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series race at Brownstown Speedway. He checked that off his bucket list when he claimed the Indiana Icebreaker in 2024, and then 12 months later, he secured back-to-back victories by winning this year's edition, which was worth an event-record $25,000, on Saturday night, leading all 50 laps. Moran beat Ricky Thornton Jr. to the checkered flag by 1.118 seconds for the victory. Jonathan Davenport managed to repass Mike Marlar on the last lap, finishing in third place. Marlar took fourth. Josh Rice also executed a pass, getting by Daulton Wilson on the final lap to secure his second consecutive top-five finish in the series. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the fourth time this season, Moran expressed his affection for Brownstown Speedway as he and Thornton left Brownstown tied for the points lead. "Baby, I love Brownstown," said the Dresden, Ohio native who claimed his 19th career series win. "I love coming here. It was a hard-fought race the entire time. At the initial start, Garrett (Alberson) and JD were running the bottom, and I just made hay around the top in three and four. I had a really good race car, but I felt like they were on me the whole race this place is so hard to get separated from people. The lapped cars were all over the place, and there at the end, it started to get a little bottom dominate." "it's not going to be easy to win the championship this year. It's going to be a dogfight. The 20RT is obviously really, really good. The 49 I feel like is the best car in the country right now. To be 1,2,3, I think that is what a lot of people are going to see all year long, and it's going to be some great racing." Thornton, the defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion, was coming off of a win at Atomic on Friday. He briefly grabbed the lead on a lap 33 restart from Moran with a big slider in turn four, but Moran turned down the track to maintain his lead. "I just got a good restart and I I knew I wasn't going to pass Devin there. I was more going to slide Devin so that way JD couldn't get by me. It was more defense for second than trying to win it. So, I felt our car was pretty good there finally once it went slick towards the end, and I could move around a little bit." Davenport rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third after a hard-fought battle with Mike Marlar in the closing laps. "No doubt we had a good race (with Marlar). He come up through there pretty good. We were probably a little soft on tires. I thought we would be better at the beginning of the race than Devin was, but he fired really well, he's been really good here at Brownstown. We got good there during that long run which was kind of odd for our tire choice. But thereafter that caution, there was a lot of grit out in the middle of three and four so that's why I picked the top on the restart." The winner's Double Down Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Big River Steel, Lazydays RV, C&W Trucking, Bomag, Millwood Plumbing, Anthony's Pizza, Refuel Wellness, Red Oak Pub, Pee Wee's Wrecker Service, Eibach Springs, Smoky Mountain Speedway, Haulin' Haskell's CarSourceAuto, McHugh Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram, and Phillps CPA.

- Crigler goes wire-to-wire for 4 State Late Model win in Lucas Oil Speedway opener as Carroll, Galvan also prevail
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 22, 2025) - It was a dominant performance by Sawyer Crigler as Lucas Oil Speedway opened its season on Saturday night in the Late Model portion of March Full Body Madness. Crigler, a second-generation racer from Alton, Mo., led all 30 laps in a caution-free 4 State Late Model Series feature to outdistance Dustin Atkinson for the victory. Other feature winners in the March Full Body Madness program, attracting 99 entries in the four divisions, were Kenny Carroll (Hickamo Super Stocks) and Chase Galvan (SMSI Pure Stocks). The fourth and final feature, for the O'Reilly Auto Parts Stock Cars, was postponed by rain. Crigler's first Lucas Oil Speedway career win was never in doubt as he led from start-to-finish. He won six times on the 4 State Late Model Series in 2024. "This place is awesome," Crigler said in the victory lane. "The track was great. It was slick from top to bottom. It got a little rubbered up there at the end, but that was OK. This is the first race here with this series this year, so it's good to start it off with a win." It didn't take long for Crigler to drive away after starting on the pole as he opened a three-second gap over Joey Smith by lap five as reigning series champ Atkinson settled into third. Lapped traffic bogged the leader down by lap 10 with Smith cutting the deficit to 1.6 seconds. Once Crigler was able to get a bit of clearance from the heavy traffic, he was able to rebuild the command as a long caution-free run continued. Atkinson, meanwhile, slipped past Smith for second on lap 16 but Crigler was 3.5 seconds clear by then with no signs of letting up. Crigler stayed out of harm the rest of the way and finished 2.3 seconds in front of Atkinson for his first win of the season. Cole Wells rallied late to finish third with Smith finishing fourth and Andy Bryant fifth. Carroll makes late pass for Super Stocks win: Kenny Carroll made the winning pass as the white flag waved and held off race-long pacesetter Jared Hays to score the Hickamo Super Stocks feature victory. Hays started on the pole and by lap seven already had a 3.3-second lead over Tony Anglin with Carroll another second and a half behind Anglin. Hays caught lapped traffic by the mid point of the race on lap 10, which is when the first caution flew - and that served to wipe away Hays' big lead. After two more cautions, Taylor Carver zoomed from seventh to second by lap 14 and was putting heat on Hays when another caution slowed the action. But on the restart, Carver drifted high and was involved in a multi-car incident in turn two, taking him out of contention. Carroll came on strong after a lap-16 caution and zoomed around Hays on the high side coming to the white flag. The veteran driver and former Lucas Oil Speedway track champion from Camdenton held on from there and beat Hays by .665 seconds. "The last two (laps) were the easiest ones," Carroll said in victory lane. "There was a lot of thought going on the entire race, trying to think ahead between the bottom and top. It just worked out perfect." Tim Brown was third with Anglin fourth and Gary Clark fifth. SMSI Pure Stocks win to Galvan: Chase Galvan of Kansas City, Kan., led all 11 laps to win a weather-shortened SMSI Pure Stocks main event that was able to become official by just passing the halfway point before rain arrived. Third-starting Mason Beck was closing in on Galvan when a lap-six caution flew. After the restart it became a four-car tussle for the lead with Derek Brown and Bobby Brown joining the fray. But Galvan, who started on the pole, held onto the top spot, as another yellow flag came out with nine laps remaining. Beck fell out of contention on the restart when he had trouble in turn four. That's when rain began and the checkered flag waved at lap 11, making Galvan the winner with Derek Brown second, Bobby Brown third, Donnie Devers fourth and Payton McDowell fifth.

- Thornton Holds Off Rice in Buckeye Spring 50 at Atomic
CHILLICOTHE, OH (March 21, 2025) - Reigning Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion Ricky Thornton Jr. secured his first career victory at Atomic Speedway, taking home the $15,000 prize for winning the Buckeye Spring 50 on Friday night. Thornton successfully fended off a determined Josh Rice, marking his fourth Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win of the season. Rice, who closed in on Thornton several times during the last 39 laps of the race, finished second by 0.541 seconds at the line. Devin Moran came in third, followed by Mike Marlar and Hudson O'Neal. Thornton jumped to the lead at the start of the race, with Jonathan Davenport running in second place. Davenport stayed close to Thornton until a lapped car came down on him, forcing Davenport to spin in turn two after ten laps as the caution was displayed for him, requiring a restart from the back of the field. Rice then moved into second place as he and Garrett Alberson raced hard for that position, with Moran joining the battle after starting in ninth. Moran briefly took second, but Rice fought back to reclaim the position. In the closing laps, Rice managed to catch up to Thornton, but he couldn't pull off a last-minute move on the final lap to try and steal the win from Thornton. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 46th time in his career, Thornton has now assumed the championship points lead as he heads to Brownstown on Saturday. "I knew Josh (Rice) was going to be good, really, I thought he was a little better than I was there I was just able to get out in front of him. I've got a little right-side damage. I got behind a lapped car, and he kept kind of going low, and he turned back to the bottom finally, and I knew it was time I had to go, or I was going to get passed, so I and he hit a little bit, obviously I got some right-side damage. It's part of it, so we will have it ready tomorrow at Brownstown." "It was a hard-earned 50 laps for sure. With JD starting next to me this is one of his better race-tracks. I don't know what happened to him. You don't want to see a guy be the yellow, especially him; you want to beat guys like that straight up." Rice, who came into the event with two career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victories at Florence Speedway, nearly stole the show at Atomic. "Really, I felt like I needed it to stay green. We were a little bit harder on tires than he was. It was a heck of a race. Ricky did everything he had to do to win that one. I am sure all of the fans loved it. Really, this is our first weekend out; last weekend wasn't so good. We adjusted good on the car tonight. I feel like we did some stuff we don't normally do, and it worked out from hot laps to qualifying. I had a totally different racecar with just a slight adjustment." Moran, who maintained second in the points and heads to Brownstown tomorrow as the defending Indiana Icebreaker winner, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "I've got to start closer to the front. I feel like I have been starting all these races in the back and having to pass cars. Ricky and Josh were really good. I had a couple of chances to slide Josh, and I knew he was going to be on the gas, and I didn't want to do that. All-in-all, they did an awesome job with the racetrack." The winner's Koehler Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Ultimate Towing and Recovery, Elite Ready Mix, Capital Waste, Hoker Trucking, Coltman Farms Racing, Sunoco Race Fuels, Bilstein Shocks, EMD Wraps, Certified Inspection Services, and Knight's Companies. Completing the top ten were Garrett Alberson, Brandon Overton, Carson Ferguson, Donald McIntosh, and Jonathan Davenport.

- Shuman named new Lucas Oil Speedway assistant GM, competition director
WHEATLAND, MO. (March 20, 2025) - Casey Shuman, with nearly 30 years of experience as both a driver and a national touring series owner or director, has been appointed Lucas Oil Speedway's new Assistant General Manager and Competition Director. "We're thrilled to welcome someone with Casey's extensive experience and deep roots in the dirt-track racing world," Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager Danny Lorton said. Shuman, 45, has been General Manager at I-70 Motorsports Park for the last two seasons following a four-year stint as Series Director for the World of Outlaws Late Model Series. He and wife Brooke owned and operated the WAR Sprint Car Series from 2015-19. Casey and Brooke live in Platte City, Mo., and have a daughter, Sawyer. "Ive always loved racing at Lucas Oil Speedway," said Shuman, a Tempe, Arizona native who started driving Sprint cars as a teenager and raced full-time for 20-plus years. Though he retired from full-time racing in 2015, he still occasionally gets behind the wheel of his open-wheel car. "I raced full-time for 20-22 years, but the promotion and series side of our industry always interested me," Shuman said. "I raced 6-8 times last year, and I'll likely do around the same this year. It's just enough to have some fun. Driving is no longer the focus of my career, but I still enjoy getting out there and having a good time." "When this position with Lucas Oil Speedway revealed itself, I knew it was the right time, and I'm excited for the opportunity to be part of this top tier staff and facility," Shuman said of accepting the Lucas Oil Speedway management position. "My dad raced for a living with the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series when I was born. I've been around the racetrack since I was a kid and started racing Sprint cars as a teen. All these years later, I'm still a dedicated advocate for the sport that raised me and I'm looking forward to what's ahead for our team at the Diamond of Dirt Tracks in Wheatland, Missouri." Shuman said he's "ready to jump right into the season" when it begins this weekend with the March Full Body Madness on Saturday. Shuman replaces Ernie Leftwich, who resigned earlier this month to become series director of the Comp Cams Super Late Model Series. Season opens this weekend: The 2025 schedule roars to life this weekend with a special on the dirt oval on Saturday as March Full Body Madness brings all four full-body classes to one program.

- Henry picks up where he left off, opens Attica season with 410 win; Schlenk dominates late models; MIller returns to 305 victory lane
ATTICA, Ohio - Cap Henry picked up where he left off in 2024. The Republic, Ohio driver, a three time and defending Attica Raceway Park 410 sprint champion, took the lead from Craig Mintz on lap eight and then held off several challenges from Mintz in traffic to score the opening night win at "Ohio's Finest Racing" speed plant, Friday, March 14 on Underground Utilities Inc./R.D. Holder Oil Company Night. Dan McCarron led the first two circuits of the Callie's Performance Products 410 Sprint A-main before fourth starter Mintz blasted by for the lead. Henry, who started eighth on the grid, moved into second on lap seven and under Mintz for the lead exiting turn four to complete lap eight. Henry encountered heavy lapped traffic on lap 13 and that allowed both Mintz and DJ Foos to close. Henry and Mintz nearly touched several times over the next hand full of laps until the only caution of the 30-lap affair fell on lap 14 for a stalled Chris Andrews who had charged from eighth to ninth. Despite a clear track, Henry could not shake Mintz as the pair continued to battle through heavy lapped traffic with just eight laps to go. Henry finally found the high line to his liking and pulled away for his 21st career 410 sprint win at Attica, placing him in a tie with Chad Kemenah for fourth on the division's all-time win list. Mintz, Foos, McCarron and Bryan Sebetto rounded out the top five. "I was pretty confident before that caution. I told Zack (Myers, crew chief) we were kind of fighting something with the wing valve…it felt like the wing was just moving wherever it wanted. So I was driving the thing and trying to push it back forward and finally just let it trunk itself and dealt with it. It was pretty close there with Craig…man I'll take it, it was a lot of work," said Henry beside his Premier Planning Service, Jeff Ward Demolition, Ohio Logistics, Primal Tee Shop, Innovative Excavating, Elliott's Custom Trailers and Carts, FK Rod Ends, King Racing, Griff's Engines; Berryman Racing Shocks, Callie's Performance Products, Dyers, Power Cool Manufacturing, SCS Gearbox, Tony Elliott Foundation backed #33W. McClure, Ohio's Rusty Schlenk dominated the 25-lap Dirt Nerds Podcast UMP Late Model feature at Attica Raceway Park. The three time national UMP champion led from the drop of the green and built up sizeable leads with the feature's only caution on lap three the only thing that slowed him down. It was Schlenk's 46th career late model win at Attica, as he sits atop the all-time win list at the track. Devin Shiels, Casey Noonan, Ryan Markham and Collin Shipley rounded out the top five. "I had to be patient in traffic. I saw over my shoulder I had to run high a few laps so I could peak around to see where Devin was. I knew I had a little bit of a lead and I had to pick my way through there and be quick as I could. The lappers were all over the place and I didn't want to do anything stupid. This is the second race on this car. It's a new MK2 chassis that we built. We raced it once at the end of last year…raced at the Tennessee National and almost won that and we came here and dominated tonight. These new MK2 Domination cars are going to be pretty good," said Schlenk beside his Buckeye Concrete Coatings, Terry Henricks Auto Group, Velocita USA, Dominator Race Products, Tom Finch Auto, Domination Race Cars, All Star Performance backed #91. Like Henry, Fremont, Ohio's Jamie Miller also picked right up where he left off after the 2024 season which saw him win six features in the Fremont Fence 305 Sprints at Attica. Miller, a five time and defending Attica 305 sprint track champion took the lead from Blayne Keckler on lap 12 and survived the 25-lap feature's only yellow with just six laps to go, to score his 46th career division win, placing him second on the all-time win list. Seth Schneider got a last lap pass of Keckler to finish second with Brandon Moore and Kasey Ziebold rounding out the top five. "On that initial start I went to the bottom and didn't feel good…I thought something was wrong so on the next start I got a little better run on Kasey and went to the top and I said 'hell of staying here' and it just kept getting better and better. How about those RCF Chassis going one, two and three," said Miller beside his Boca Construction, JLH General Contractors, Kenny Kolb Farms, Tuck Pointing America, Queen of Clean, Smitty's Pizza, Roberts & Sons Contracting, Pizza Wheel, Crown Battery, Pub 400., Reedtown Tavern, Fostoria Mod Shop, Sandy's Dad, Gressman Powersports, Phil Rister, Slade Shock Technology backed #26. Attica Raceway Park will be back in action Friday, March 21 (rain date of Saturday, March 22) with the 410 and 305 sprints and late models in action.

- NETTO LAYS CLAIM TO NARC OPENER AT VAN CONETT SALUTE AT STOCKTON
(3/8/25 - Andrew Kunas) Stockton, CA ... D.J. Netto kicked off the 2025 NARC 410 sprint car season in dominate fashion, winning the season opening Salute to Leroy Van Conett at the Stockton Dirt Track on Saturday. The Hanford, CA driver led all 30 laps, but had to work hard in heavy traffic, fighting off the reigning NARC champion Justin Sanders as they sliced and diced their way through slower cars. Sanders made numerous attempts to get around his fellow former champion, but Netto answered the call. Unfortunately, Sanders charge came to an abrupt end when he spun while trying to avoid a lapped car with just six laps remaining. With a clear track in front of him, Netto was never seriously challenged the rest of the way, winning aboard the Penny Newman Green-sponsored Netto Ag No. 88n Rider-powered KPC. It was a perfect ending for Netto who starting the program by setting the standard for the 25-car field in ARP qualifying with a new track record. He also claimed the Beacon Wealth Strategies dash to earn the pole for the feature. "Justin and I had been racing pretty well. I was kind of looking left and saw that he was going where I wasn't. I was trying to look left and straight at the same time," Netto said. "You don't know who's spinning out or who was where in front of you. Honestly the yellows came at the right time for me. It was going to get really good with Justin and I in traffic. I just had a really good race car (also)." Saturday's event honored Stockton-native Van Conett, an eight-time NARC champion and 1999 National Sprint Car Hall of Fame inductee. The 90-year old Van Conett was in attendance for the races. Fremont, California's Shane Golobic battled with Sean Becker in the closing laps and finished second aboard the NOS Energy Drink-sponsored Matt Wood Racing No. 17w Rider-powered KPC. Disappointed with his finish after a mistake on his part earlier, Golobic was grateful for the result and for his crew. "I think I lost our race earlier," Golobic said, regarding a pass he made around Sanders for second, but losing back when he made a mistake. "I'm really proud of our team. We're just a bunch of guys having a lot of fun together and the NOS Energy Drink guys work really, really hard and Matt Wood is helping us get up and down the road." After starting seventh, Becker settled for third aboard the Bjork Construction Company-sponsored No. 7b Shaver-powered Maxim. Coming from the 15th starting position, Kaleb Montgomery charged to finish fourth aboard the Luxon Real Estate-sponsored Montgomery Racing No. 3 Speedway-powered Maxim. Andy Forsberg finished fifth in the Pacific Highway Rentals-sponsored No. 92 Don Ott-powered Maxim. Tim Kaeding put on a show for his legion of fans aboard the Williams Motorsports No. 0, earning the Williams Roofing Hard Charger nod, advancing 15 positions and coming from 21st to finish sixth. Dylan Bloomfield, who ran as high as second late in the race, finished seventh. Tanner Carrick, Billy Aton and Dominic Gorden rounded out the top ten. Heat races earlier in the evening were won by Tanner Carrick, Shane Golobic and Dylan Bloomfield. Hoosier Racing Feature (30 laps): 1. 88 D.J.

- AFTER A LONG LAYOFF, BRODY ROA SCORES AN IMPRESSIVE 5TH PLACE FINISH IN HIS RETURN TO PERRIS
(Cypress, CA, March 5, 2025) After more than six months out of the saddle, Southern California sprint car racing star Brody Roa finally returned to action when the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Series made its first 2025 appearance at Perris Auto Speedway last Saturday night. The veteran racer looked like he had not missed a day as he started 13th and drove all the way to fifth to capture the Jim and Chet Gardner Hard Charger Award. Roa, who suffered a bad cut to his fingers last October, said he never noticed the injuries. That included using the repaired hand to pull tear offs and adjust his shocks in the heat of the battle. After qualifying 14th fastest in the 25-car field, Roa, who makes his home in Garden Grove, California, improved throughout the night. Starting on the outside of the front row in the second heat race of the Perris sprint car season opener, Roa steered his bright green #91R to a second place finish in the 10-lapper. "It felt pretty good," Roa happily stated about getting back in the car after the layoff. "It took a bit of time to get going. I would say my track record as a qualifier is not very good. After taking what felt like a year off did not help. I kind of started the night getting back into the swing of it. We were getting our new engine tuned in and we made improvements all night." Even though the 2023 USAC/CRA Series champion ran well in his heat race, the qualifying time was still going to hamper his effort in the main event. He was starting from the inside of row seven in the 23 car field, 30 lap main event. That meant he was going to have to pass a lot of cars to get a decent finishing position. As is usually the case at Perris, the main event was a war! Roa was one of several drivers in a wild mid-pack battle for most of the race before he really began to roll forward. "I knew what we had to do, we were going to have to pass cars," Roa recalled. "Starting there, I was with, behind and around a few cars I really did not want to spend much time around. I knew we were better than where we were starting. I did not get the best of starts and it felt like I fell back to 17th or 18th the first couple of laps. I got stuck behind the #73 on the bottom before I could get up to the top and get some momentum. I just wanted to get forward and get up to the guys who I knew had some speed. In the last 1/3 of the race I got there. I felt we had some pretty good speed with them. We were a little behind on the set up for the feature. We were to free at the end to do anything once we got there." Roa used the DRC Chassis he drove to the championship in 2023. His uncle purchased the engine for the car last year. He only got about half a race with it last September before being knocked out of the action due to a crash at the Santa Maria Speedway. Despite being a little off on the gearing at the start of the night, the team tweaked on it and it got better. That gives the veteran driver more confidence regarding setup heading into his next race in four weeks. Roa will return to action when the USAC/CRA Series returns to Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday, April 5th. That gives him some extra time off. His wife Tailor just bought the family a new toy hauler and they plan to make good use of it. So where will Roa, Tailor and their two daughters head to before he returns on the 5th? "We are actually taking it to Lake Perris (which is adjacent to the track) on the High Limit Series weekend," Roa laughed. We are going to come out and watch them. That will be fun." Roa would like to thank his 2025 sponsors, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Burris Racing, ALR Virtual Services, Caltrol, Molecule, and Wilwood Disc Brakes. If you would like to be a marketing partner with the team in 2025, contact Roa using the information at the top of this release.

- NARC OPENS '25 SPRINT CAR CAMPAIGN WITH VAN CONETT SALUTE AT STOCKTON
(3/3/25 - Andrew Kunas) Stockton, CA ... After a long winter, the wait is coming to an end for 410 sprint car fans in California as the Northern Auto Racing Club opens its highly anticipated 2025 season this Saturday night with the annual Salute to Leroy Van Conett at the Stockton Dirt Track. The first of 29 races scheduled for NARC's 66th season of competition, the Salute to Leroy Van Conett honors one of the all-time greats. A Galt, CA native, Van Conett was an eight-time NARC champion, winning his first title in 1969 and scoring his last in 1984. Among his many career sprint car victories were a Gold Cup win and 65 NARC triumphs, and it all resulted in Van Conett entering the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in 1999. Van Conett's NARC championship total has been surpassed only by fellow Hall of Famer Brent Kaeding. Aromas, California's Justin Sanders, the defending NARC series champion, won last year's Salute to Leroy Van Conett after making a late pass around former series champion Sean Becker. Sanders also won the NARC season finale at Stockton in spectacular style last November, beating Cole Macedo late to win the annual Tribute to Gary Patterson and win the NARC championship in walk off fashion. Sanders, driving the Mittry Motorsports No. 2x, will look start his title defense with a win at the track where he saw much success last year. Several other top racers will be on hand. Among them will be the rising star from Oregon, Tanner Holmes, who will be splitting time this season between his family's car and the potent Tarlton Motorsports No. 21, which he will be piloting on Saturday. Holmes won his first NARC 410 race last year and looks to quickly add to his total this season. With Macedo behind the wheel, the Tarlton Motorsports team nearly won the NARC title last year against Sanders. A number of other aspiring drivers have been knocking on the door of their first NARC win, and opening night at Stockton Dirt Track is that first opportunity this season for drivers like Gauge Garcia of Lemoore, and Oakley's Dylan Bloomfield, a pair of drivers who led NARC main events last season but fell short. Ashton Torgerson of Glendale, AZ is one of the drivers who will compete for NARC Rookie of the Year honors.

- PERRIS YOUNG GUNS CHAMPION GUERRERO MAKES A BIG STEP UP TO THE USAC/CRA SPRINT CARS
(Perris, CA, February 10, 2025) In 2013, Perris Auto Speedway promoter Don Kazarian introduced the PAS Young Guns Sprint Car Series. Invented for young drivers with no prior sprint car experience, the idea was to graduate racers into the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Series. Over the years, many drivers have taken the giant leap in class, including past Young Gun Champions and now CRA regulars Logan Williams, Eddie Tafoya Jr., and Stevie Rogers. This year, another Young Guns Champion, Brecken Guerrero, is making the leap to "Big Boy Sprint Car Racing." Guerrero, a high school student who lives in Westminster, California, has been around sprint cars for most of his life. However, last year he jumped into the cockpit for the first time. At the conclusion of the season, he was crowned 2024 Young Guns champion. When Perris Auto Speedway opens its 29th season this Saturday night, Guerrero will receive a championship trophy and a champion's custom jacket. They will go along nicely with the brand-new GAS Sprint Car chassis he collected from the 2023 series sponsor. On Tuesday evening, the well-spoken teen gave a pleasant interview about his upbringing around sprint cars, his championship season, expectations for this year and the future, and his life off the track. PAS: The first obvious question is, how old are you? Guerrero: I am only 17 years old, and last year when I was racing, I was 16. I am a Junior at Marina High School down in Huntington Beach. PAS: How did you get involved in the sprint car racing world? Guerrero: Verne (veteran USAC/CRA racer Verne Sweeney) is technically my stepdad. He is my dad, and he has been around since I was three. Racing has been the love of my life ever since. I was sitting up in the grandstands and then going down to the pits. Now I am racing. We had been wanting me to go down to the pits because it would be cool to experience. We saw one of Gansen's (USAC/CRA driver Chris Gansen) kids in the pits. We talked to the owners of Perris and they said I was allowed to go down there. PAS: How old were you when you first went down there? Guerrero: Oh, shoot, I don't remember. Still in the single digits probably. I was down there spectating and cleaning it (the car). Rubbing off some mud. PAS: As a little kid, did you dream that one day you would be on the track racing? Guerrero: When I was a little kid, I seen my dad race and heard all of these great stories. I always wanted to do it. Now that I am starting to race, it is actually unbelievable. It really is. PAS: Did you race anything before last season? Guerrero: Last year was my first year racing anything. I had no micro experience. Nothing. PAS: How nerve-racking was it the first time you got in the sprint car? It is not like wheeling a used Volkswagen down the street. Guerrero: No, not at all. At first, it is a little intimidating but you kind of learn to calm down your nerves. You learn the car and it gets easier. PAS: How were your mom and Verne's nerves when you first went out? Guerrero: Oh my gosh! My mom was a nervous wreck I have to assume. Verne played it off cool and collected, but there was definitely a nervous pit crew that night. PAS: Your mom is technically your car owner, right? Guerrero: Mom is technically the car owner, yes. PAS: So, did she have any advice, like if you do not bring it back in one piece, you will not get to race it again? Guerrero: It is really mine and Verne's, but if I flipped it again, she probably would not let me drive one. So, I try to keep all four wheels on the ground. PAS: You said, "If I flipped it again." I remember you flipping, and it was rather hard. How did that happen? Guerrero: It was my second night out. It was a rookie mistake. I tried to pass a guy after the checkered flag around the top. I found out how that ends. That was from a heat race when I was in the back. You learn from it, and you move on. It is all a big learning experience. PAS: In Verne, you have a guy helping you whose family ties in racing go back over a half-century. His uncle Max Sweeney, cousins Mike Sweeney and Steve Ostling all raced, and cousin Patty married Jac Haudenschild. That has to be a tremendous help when a guy with a racing heritage like that is helping you. Guerrero: It is awesome. He basically has all of the answers. Working on the cars, he knows everything about them. When we are not working on them, just hearing the stories of Ascot and Manzanita. He is just a cool guy to be around. I have soaked so much of it in. PAS: Do you have any racing heroes besides Verne? Guerrero: Oh my gosh! I cannot even name them all! I love the old guys. Leland McSpadden, Ron Shuman, Haudenschild, and all those guys. New young heroes are Sheldon Haudenschild, Donny Schatz, Carson Macedo, David Gravel, Brady Bacon, Justin Grant. The list goes on and on. PAS: You just named some guys who retired before you were born. It sounds like you have a great sense of sprint car racing history. Guerrero: Oh yeah. With Verne, you get the full history. When I went to the Knoxville Nationals to watch this last year, I actually got to meet Ron Shuman there. That was pretty cool. PAS: I did not know you went there. Who did you go there with? Guerrero: I went with my mom. We just went to watch. Verne had to stay back here and work. So, it was just us two. PAS: A second ago you just mentioned a bunch of winged guys among your favorites. Would you someday like to race winged cars with the World of Outlaws or High Limit? Guerrero: Yeah, it would be pretty cool. Whatever chance or opportunity I get that comes my way. Hopefully, it's a good one that I could take, and it will help me down the line and make it my career. Outlaws or National (USAC) Sprint Cars. Either would be pretty cool. PAS: So, you never raced anything before and you come out and win a championship. What were your keys to victory? Guerrero: Just showing up and being consistent. In the first couple races, I just showed up and ran laps. As it got towards the end of the season, I ran a little harder and was passing people. I was finishing better, getting more laps, and being more comfortable, really. PAS: You are starting all over again on Saturday racing with the big boys. 410 Sprint Car Racing is "Big Boy Sprint Car Racing." Any trepidation or nervousness coming into it, or are you relaxed? Guerrero: I kind of understand the feel for the car now. Getting to race with a lot more people on the track that go a lot faster with a lot more experience. It is definitely a little bit more nerves. I just try to keep them under control and run my own race and do the best I can. PAS: How long do you think it will take you to get up to speed with those drivers and do you have any goals? Guerrero: Hopefully, it will not take too long. My goal is, by midseason to be able to finish comfortably in like, 13th or 14th in midfield. PAS: Thus far, we have just talked about racing. But that is not the only thing in your life. I have heard you are in the Boy Scouts and you play ice hockey. Guerrero: I am one rank away from becoming an Eagle Scout. That is pretty exciting. I started in the Cub Scouts when I think I was about five-years-old. I just kept with it all the way through Boy Scouts and now I am almost an Eagle. Going on campouts and meeting new people is really awesome. PAS: Now let's talk about my favorite sport. I hear you are a pretty fair hockey player. Guerrero: I have been playing ice hockey for eight years. I think after this season is done, I am going to be done with hockey so I can focus more on racing. Hockey is great. It gets you athletic and you meet a lot of people. It is just so fun. I play in the high school league organized by the Anaheim Ducks (NHL). A whole bunch of high schools come together to make different teams. We play in Westminster, Lakewood, Anaheim, Irvine. PAS: That is a really good league you are playing hockey in. How hard will it be for you to give it up? Guerrero: It is really fun. It will take some time to get used to having a wider schedule. I love hockey. When I get older I will probably play in an adult league just to stay with. PAS: Man you are busy! Anything else? Guerrero: Yes, I almost have a black belt in karate. I have been doing that for nine years. To see Guerrero's USAC/CRA debut this Saturday, spectator gates at Perris Auto Speedway will open at the normal 5:00 p.m. for the first race of the track's 29th season of operation.

- Davenport Outduels Overton at Ocala
OCALA, FL (February 6, 2025) - Jonathan Davenport secured his second consecutive Wieland Winter Nationals feature on Thursday night at Ocala Speedway, as the three-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion fended off Brandon Overton to capture the $10,000 victory. The final results will show that Davenport led all 40 laps, but Overton caught up to Davenport as they approached the white flag. However, he could never pass him to steal the win from his fellow Georgian, who triumphed by 0.538 seconds at the finish line. Kyle Bronson achieved his best series finish of the year, taking third, followed by Brandon Sheppard and Devin Moran, who rounded out the top five drivers. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 85th time in his career, Davenport also was victorious at Ocala for the fifth time in his career, the most all-time for any late model driver during Speedweeks at the egg-shaped track. "He (Overton) made me more worried than I should have been. I didn't know he was coming like that at the very end. It was kind of slimy around the bottom, so he just kept chasing it down and blowing it out. That was why I didn't think we could move, and since I was in the front, I couldn't tell what everyone else was doing. Once I got to the lapped cars, I didn't think I could pass any on the outside. I think they finally rolled in a little of that slime through one and two. It was a little better through the middle, but it was kind of bumpy. As long as your car wouldn't bounce too badly, I guess that was why he got that good run. Other than that, I was just blocking." Overton, in his return to the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series in 2025, was the third different driver to run second during the 40-lap race, joining Sheppard and Bronson in that category. "I I felt like I was doing everything I could. I almost made a move on him there, but I just got my right rear quarter-panel in the wall and couldn't get low enough to take the lead. It was an awesome race. If the fans didn't enjoy that, they might as well stop coming. The wins are on the way. I feel like I have the best crew in the business. I just want to win one; I mean, we're really close to winning one." Bronson, looking for his first series win since taking the Silver Dollar Nationals in 2021, regained the third position on lap 33 to round out the Big River Steel Podium. "It definitely feels good to get a good finish. I have been down on myself a little bit. We've got everything we need to win; we just need to put the right pieces in the right places and go after it." The winner's Double L Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Nutrien Ag Solutions, Dyna-Gro Seed, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, and Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas. Completing the top ten were Spencer Hughes, Ross Robinson, Tyler Bruening, Tanner English, and Dillon McCowan.

- Moran takes Wieland Winter Nationals Opener at Ocala
OCALA, FL (February 4, 2025) - Devin Moran continued his winning ways with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing, capturing the 30-lap $7,000 Wieland Winter Nationals main event on Tuesday night at Ocala Speedway. Moran took the lead on lap 24 from Brandon Overton, who had led the first 23 laps, as the Dresden, Ohio driver secured his 17th career series victory. Overton, who fell back to third on a restart with five laps remaining, managed to get around Jonathan Davenport with two laps left. He then closed in on Moran at the end, finishing just .0264 seconds behind. Davenport secured the final spot on the Big River Steel Podium in third. The rest of the top five consisted of Carson Ferguson and Hudson O'Neal. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the second time in his career at Ocala and the second consecutive time this season, Moran recalls his early-week successes in previous years at Easy Bay. "Just like for the Winternationals at East Bay, I felt I was really good the first night, so bringing that over to Bubba's place is awesome, and taking his money is great too. As I mentioned earlier tonight, I thought the track would be pretty good, and it did seem good. Turns out, one and two finally started to come in once it slowed down. He (Overton) finally caught lapped traffic, which threw him off a bit. I've watched a lot of film and seen how to take different lines here to gain speed. I tried them all and finally found one that worked. It was really cool to get the first win of the week here. I wish it was a points night, but that's alright. We'll take the money and get ready for the rest of the week." Overton, who started on the Victory Fuel Pole, led unchallenged for the first 20 laps of the race until traffic started to play a part as a long stretch of green flag racing allowed Moran and Davenport to make it a three-way battle for the top spot. "I I was just trying to outsmart them on that restart. I figured he (Moran) would go to the bottom in turns one and two, but he went to the top on that restart, which really threw me off. I just wheelied and pushed and got back behind JD, and I was able to enter a little lower than everyone else in three. We had a good enough car to win. I just got too close to the lapped car and spun the tires leaving turn two. It was just one of those nights when running second felt better than being out front. So, we'll take it; we are making gains every day." Davenport created an exciting three-car battle before the caution flag waved with 25 laps completed. He briefly took second place when Overton slipped up the track on the restart, but Overton managed to pass him again on the final lap. "I I thought I had passed Overton before the caution, but they said I wasn't ahead of him that lap. We had a great race there. They got a bit held up in lapped traffic and I caught up to them. I found the top down on that end and we were just a little better. We tried something new tonight, but I don't think it worked as well. We know what we need to do to improve for tomorrow and the rest of the week. It's sunny in Florida, and it's 80 degrees; we're all having a good time down here."

- Thornton Grabs Last Lap Victory at All-Tech
LAKE CITY, FL (January 30, 2025) - Ricky Thornton Jr., the defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion, seized the opportunity created by race leader Devin Moran's flat tire on the final lap to triumph in the 40-lap Wieland Winternationals opener on Thursday night at All-Tech Raceway. Moran, who led a race-high 34 laps, had a tire going down in the final two laps, which allowed Thornton to pass him on lap 39 as he went on to secure his first win of the season. Max Blair edged past Daulton Wilson on the final lap, as they rounded out the Big River Steel podium, taking second and third place at the finish. Moran limped across the line in fourth, with Tyler Erb completing the top five drivers. Moran jumped to the lead at the start of the race and maintained it for the first 12 laps until Shane Clanton passed him on lap 13. Clanton would then lead Moran for four more laps until Moran surged back ahead for the lead on lap 18. Clanton remained solid in second until a flat tire on lap 29 ended his chances for the win. A lap 30 restart saw Thornton charge from fourth to second as he pressured Moran for the race lead. However, Thornton slipped back when he got too high in turn two on lap 33 and hit the wall. He recovered, and Moran's flat tire opened the door for Thornton, who entered the All-Tech race as the only driver to have won more than once in the last seven Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing appearances at the track, allowing him to go to the winner's circle for the third time there. In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 43rd time in his career, and for the third time at All-Tech, Thornton claimed victory for the first time in 2025. "I I had a good run on that last restart. I got under Daulton for second as we entered turn three; we bumped a little, but nothing too serious. Then I got to Devin, as I mentioned, and I knew his crew guy would move him up. I actually didn't even see him [Moran] well enough to notice that he had a right-rear flat. We got to the top of turn three, and he was three-wheeling it. As we approached the white flag, I thought it really stinks for him, but I guess someone's misfortune was good for us and we'll take it it." Blair, who started 10th, surged to the front in the final circuits, claiming the runner-up spot. "I want to be up there where he [Thornton] is. We have been good since the end of last year. The track fit our driving style tonight. We'll come back tomorrow and try to finish one spot better." Wilson, who led the most laps at Golden Isles two weeks ago, stayed in the top four for most of the race and came home in third. "We were good at Golden Isles and not so good last weekend. I thought I had a real shot at winning tonight."

- Logan Seavey Charges To Hard Rock Qualifying Night Victory
Bryan Hulbert - TULSA, Okla. (January 17, 2025) Making the late race pass for the lead, then having to fend off the ferocious pursuit of Gavin Miller through the closing laps, Logan Seavey delivered for his fourth career Chili Bowl Nationals powered by NOS Energy Drink preliminary night victory during Hard Rock Hotel Casino Tulsa Qualifying Night. "I could still keep up with guys; I just lost a little balance really to be able to maneuver as good as I needed to in traffic, but when I could get against the cushion by myself, I could make a ton of speed, but in the feature, I could finally crawl the bottom, so we're going in the right direction. I still feel like I made a lot of ugly laps there, but fortunately, I happen to make them at the right times and made good laps when I needed them," explained Seavey of the race. Rolling from seventh at the start, Seavey was on the podium in eight laps. Chasing Ryan Timms and Gavin Miller, the fight for the lead got hot on Lap 18 as Gavin Miller tried to shoot under Timms into the third turn. Across the nose of the No. 97, Miller would make contact with Timms. Who spun to a stop. On the contact, Miller said, "Trying to cross back on Logan, Ryan went to the bottom, and I didn't think he was going slow up that much. I locked up the brakes, but was already too far, and hooked his bumper, and I apologized to him." Getting momentum, Seavey leaned into the cushion and began closing on Miller. Around to Lap 26, a misstep on the cushion by Miller put Seavey in the hunt, with a move for the lead coming the next time around. Glued to the back bumper of the No. 39 through the final four laps, Seavey slid himself through both ends of the Tulsa Expo Raceway to fend Miller by 0.221-seconds. Seavey into his seventh Chili Bowl A-Feature, Miller's runner-up finish locks him into his first. Tyler Courtney ran 12th to third, with Daryn Pittman and Daryn Pittman completing the top five. Five preliminary nights yielded 392 entries officially received after cancelations, with 377 drawing in for competition. Each night saw a different car owner in victory lane. The last time was 2023, during Logan's first Chili Bowl victory, with the first two nights seeing new car owners in victory lane, followed by KKM, Thorson, and Swindell. That same pattern has played out in 2025, with Silva and Wood each earning their first wins as car owners on Monday and Tuesday. Saturday, January 18, opens at 8:00 A.M. with cars on track at 9:00 A.M. (CT). The features are slated to start with the double P-Mains. The 39th annual Chili Bowl Nationals powered by NOS Energy Drink takes place January 13-18, 2025, under the giant roof of the SageNet Center in Tulsa, Okla. Fans unable to attend the Chili Bowl Nationals can watch every lap live at http://www.floracing.com. General Admission tickets are sold at the event and include access to the Pits. They are $75 on Saturday. The General Admission pass does not sell out. For continued updates on the Chili Bowl Nationals, fans can follow along on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram with @CBNationals.

- Tanner Thorson Cooks Up A Thriller On Hasty Bake Qualifying Night
Bryan Hulbert - TULSA, Okla. (January 16, 2025) Another fight to the finish during the 39th annual Chili Bowl Nationals powered by NOS Energy Drink, Thursday's Hasty Bake Qualifying Night A-Feature came down to the final lap with Tanner Thorson holding off Ryan Bernal and Christopher Bell for the win. On the final restart, Thorson said, "That yellow came out, and I'm like [Christopher] Bell is the last person I want behind me on a restart, so I'm looking for my guys to tell me kind of where to go, and I didn't know, and I about gave it away when I thought Bell as to my inside, and it's [Ryan] Bernal, and I'm like holy crap, we're about to get our doors blown off, so it was tricky." Thorson's third career preliminary night victory in 12 starts since 2014, the fight for the win began with Karter Sarff, who drove around Thorson to lead the third and fourth laps. Tight into the cushion on a Lap 5 restart, that allowed Thorson to retake the point. Battling next with Christopher Bell, the pair set sights on the leader, with Bell able to roll to the point on Lap 10. Caution with nine to go, Bell and Thorson began trading top and bottom at opposite ends of the Tulsa Expo Raceway, with Thorson settling in the cushion to rocket back to the lead on Lap 25 before the caution waved. Caution at the white flag, the stage was set for a green, white, checkered showdown with the battle going three deep as Ryan Bernal, who was nearly collected in the crash that caused the final restart, sticking the bottom to take the race three wide through the final lap. Burying the right rear into the cushion, Thorson held off the challenge, with Bernal nipping the final transfer into Saturday's A-Feature at the line by 0.068-seconds. Matt Westfall moved eight to fourth with Jacob Denney rolling 11th to fifth. Thursday's Hasty Bake Qualifying Night had 79 drivers on hand, bringing the running competing entry total to 292 with another 86 slated for Friday night. The Flip Count worked its way to 39 with all drivers okay.

- Emerson Axsom Strikes During Wednesday's York Plumbing Qualifying Night
Bryan Hulbert - TULSA, Okla. (January 15, 2025) The second first-time winner in as many nights at the 39th annual Chili Bowl Nationals powered by NOS Energy Drink, Indiana's Emerson Axsom grabbed the lead on Lap 4 and never gave it back en-route to victory during Wednesday's York Plumbing Qualifying Night. The 55th driver to win a Chili Bowl preliminary A-Feature, Axsom, in his fifth preliminary A-Feature start, was asked how it felt to win, "I've been trying a long time and took myself out of a lot of races here, but I knew our stuff was good enough if I just did my job." Landing car owner Keith Kunz his 37th career victory inside the SageNet Center during Chili Bowl competition, two attempts at the start saw Axsom chasing from the right of the front row as polesitter Daison Pursley paced the field. The CB Industries No. 86 around the bottom, the KKM/Curb-Agajanian No. 68k around the top, Axsom shot off the cushion, exiting the second turn to take the lead. "Thankfully, it was a double-file restart because I fell back," quipped Axsom of the initial start. "It worked out that we were able to run the top in for a couple of laps and then get the restart where I could get a shot because I knew Daison [Pursley] was going to be good on the bottom. Their stuff has a lot of grip anywhere he goes so I worked on momentum to where when he did jump up, I could counter his move and throw a slider." Keeping pace through restarts with varying lines to fend off Pursley, the closing laps saw Daison mount a change, but not enough to get there as Axsom crossed with 0.343-seconds to spare. Daison Pursley in second was followed by eighth starting Corey Day. Fourth was Tim Buckwalter with Kale Drake moving ninth to fifth. Wednesday's York Plumbing Qualifying Night saw a field of 73 drivers on hand, bringing the running competing entry total to 213. The Flip Count worked its way to 32 with all drivers okay. Racing resumes Thursday, January 16, 2025, with Hasty-Bake Qualifying Night getting underway with Hot Laps at 4:00 P.M. followed by racing at 5:00 P.M. (CT).

- Landon Brooks Breaks Through During Tuesday's Warren CAT Qualifying Night
Bryan Hulbert - TULSA, Okla. (January 14, 2025) Becoming the 54th driver to win a preliminary night A-Feature in Chili Bowl National powered by NOS Energy Drink, California's Landon Brooks not only captured his first win atop Tulsa Expo Raceway clay, but also landed Matt Wood Racing his first win as a car owner inside the SageNet Center. Bringing cars to the Chili Bowl for over 12 years, Brooks' win makes him the second driver with Matt Wood Racing to secure a spot into Saturday's A-Feature with Wood's other lock-in driver, Shane Golobic, on the wrenches for the No. 57w. "Honestly, this feels unbelievable. I haven't even taken it all in yet. When I passed the checkered flag, I couldn't believe it," replied Brooks when asked what the win meant to him. Seventh at the start, Brook jumped to fourth early before slipping back through the mid-point of the feature before adjusting his line. On the start of the race and the changes he made to move back forward, Brooks said, "I fell back from seventh at the start and started rolling the bottom to get back to fifth, then they all kind of crept to the bottom, and I was able to rip the top to second, and luckily, I was able to reel in Brenham [Crouch] and throw a few sliders on him and pull it off, but just incredible. This whole Matt Wood Racing team, they do a great job." Getting to Crouch, who had led since the start, the first hold on the lead came on Lap 28. Returning the favor a lap later, Crouch set the pace past the white flag, with the No. 57w striking again through the first and second turns. Keeping pace through the final set of turns, Brooks made it to the line with 0.504-seconds to spare. Brenham Crouch held on for second, with Buddy Kofoid mounting a massive comeback after an incident in his TRD Qualifier landed him in the second Ferguson Supply B-Feature. Winning the consolation event, Kofoid wheeled the Mobil 1 No. 71 from 18th to the final podium step. Corbin Rueschenberg crossed fourth with Gunnar Setser, who challenged for the lead numerous times through the first 20 laps, ended up in fifth. Tuesday's Warren CAT Qualifying Night saw a field of 74 drivers on hand, bringing the running competing entry total to 140. The Flip Count worked its way to 24 with all drivers okay. Racing resumes Wednesday, January 15, 2025, with York Plumbing Qualifying Night getting underway with Hot Laps at 4:00 P.M. followed by racing at 5:00 P.M. (CT).
