  BRENT AND GRANT SEXTON COMPETE IN THE GLENN HOWARD CLASSIC ON SATURDAY AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY

  (Lakeside, CA, September 19, 2023) Sexton Gatlin Racing drivers Brent and Grant Sexton will be back on the track for the first time in over a month when they contest the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series Glenn Howard Classic this Saturday, September 23rd at Perris Auto Speedway. It will be their first race since the finale of the POWRi MinKota Summer Nationals at Minnesota's Buffalo River Speedway on August 14th. As he has done most of the year, 19-year-old Grant enters the race leading the USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year standings. The teen has steadily climbed the points ladder all year long and comes into Saturday's race in seventh. The young driver has placed in the top ten four times in 2023. His best outing was a fifth-place result at the Bakersfield Speedway on June 24th. At Perris, a ninth-place finish at the prestigious Salute to Indy on May 27th, has been his best result at the famous Riverside County half-mile clay oval this year. Besides that, the track has been tough on the effervescent teen with a 12th, 15th, 16th, and 19th. He hopes to improve on all of his Perris finishes on Saturday. Brent, who has been racing at Perris for over 20 years in lightning sprint cars, made his USAC/CRA debut on June 10th. The now 50-year-old shocked everyone by finishing seventh after starting near the back of the pack. His other start in the series came on July 15th at Perris. On that night he started 22nd in the main and moved forward to finish 18th. In addition to his outings in the USAC/CRA Series, Brent, the defending POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprint Car Series champion, has a win and a second-place finish in the two POWRi races at the track known as The PAS this year. This week, Tennessee native Brent will be debuting a new XXX Chassis. In addition, he will be using an ex-Rico Abreau 360 engine that the team just purchased. The same engine is destined to see some action in the USAC West Coast Series with Grant pushing the pedals. With plans on mostly sticking with USAC/CRA Sprint Cars in 2024, Sexton Gatlin Racing has two, top-of-the-line lightning sprint cars for sale. For prices or information, contact Brent Sexton via the phone number or email at the top of this release. Spectator gates at Perris will open at 5:00 p.m. with racing at 7:00 on Saturday. Adult tickets are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over get in for $25.00. For kids 6-12 it is just $5.00 and children 5 and under are free. The fairgrounds charges $10.00 for parking.

  TOMMY DUNKEL TURNS IN ANOTHER IMPRESSIVE PERFORMANCE AT THE VENTURA RACEWAY

  (Cypress, CA, September 8, 2023) For a lot of people, Disneyland is their happy destination place. However, there are some who would gladly offer that the Ventura Raceway is their go-to joint. It is safe to say that Inland Rigging sprint car driver Tommy Dunkel is one of the latter. Last Saturday night at Jim Naylor's racing emporium located mere feet from the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean, Dunkel raced to another second-place finish in the VRA Sprint Car Series main event. Dunkel's prowess at Ventura, in what to date is his most ambitious season racing sprint cars, has been impressive, to say the least. In five starts on the famous 1/5 mile oval in 2023, he has one win, two second-place finishes, an 11th (that was a top-five until he got clobbered late in the race), and a 19th. The two second-place finishes have come back to back. Despite not being a regular in the series, Dunkel began last Saturday night eighth in Ventura Racing Association Sprint Car points. Likewise, he started the 30-lap main event in the eighth spot. When the green flag and lights opened the 30-lapper, Dunkel moved forward and was in sixth when a yellow flag slowed the action on lap three. By the 1/3 mark, he had slipped back to seventh, but from that point on, he pushed the immaculate, white #17A forward. Dunkel shot into third place at the halfway point. Four laps later, he raced into second. The friendly driver was stalking the leader but with about nine laps to go, an inadvertent white flag was thrown. The next lap past the line, Dunkel lifted thinking it was going to be the checkers. He jumped back on the throttle when he saw that the green lights were still on but by that point the damage was done. The leader had increased his advantage and Dunkel was forced to settle for second. While frustrated by the faux pas, he was still happy with placing second. Currently in Arkansas with his Inland Rigging teammate Brody Roa, Dunkel and the team will head back home to Southern California after Saturday's race. As soon as they get back, they will put the finishing touches on Dunkel's car for next Saturday's USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series race at Ventura. One week after that, on September 23rd, Dunkel will compete closer to home when the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series converges at Perris Auto Speedway. In addition to Dunkel, series point leader Roa will be in action that night as well. Fans can pick up a 2023 Inland Rigging Racing Team shirt from the crew after the races or online brodyroa.com. As always, Brody Roa would be more than happy to jump in a race car on his weekends off from the #17R. His entire schedule is printed below. If anybody wishes to contact him about open dates, they can do so at 714-932-7994 or mailto:brodyroa91@gmail.com The team wants to thank the following sponsors for making the 2023 season possible.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. IS RACING IN TEXAS AND ARKANSAS THIS WEEK

  (Chino, CA, September 5, 2023) Eddie Tafoya Jr. headed back to the airport on Wednesday to get ready for the USAC National Sprint Car Series races this week in Texas and Arkansas. On Thursday, September 7th, he will be at the famous half-mile high-banked Devil's Bowl Speedway in Mesquite, Texas. He will then journey to Texarkana, Arkansas for races on Friday and Saturday at the semi-banked 1/4 mile Texarkana 67 Speedway. For Tafoya, it will be his initial appearance on each of the tracks. The driver, who lives 35 miles east of Los Angeles in Chino Hills, California, was slated to make his Devils Bowl debut on April 28th and 29th. However, those races, along with one at the Rocket Raceway in Petty, Texas the night before, were all rained out. He salvaged the wet trip by high-tailing it to the I70 Motorsports Park in Odessa, Missouri to finish seventh in a POWRi War Sprint Car Series race on April 29th. From there he headed northeast to the Eldora Speedway for his initial appearance on the famous high banks during the first week in May. On the western Ohio track, he qualified for both USAC National Sprint Car mains on the Tony Stewart-owned oval placing 18th and 19th. Tafoya made a couple of sojourns to Indiana over the past couple of months. The first came in late July when he competed in the grinding Indiana Sprint Week making the A main event at the legendary Terre Haute Action Track and the Bloomington Speedway. He concluded that trip with another main event appearance in a Boss race at the Paragon Speedway. Results from all of Tafoya's 2023 racing endeavors are at the end of this release. Not long after the Indiana Sprint Week trip, Tafoya returned to the "Hoosier State" for the prestigious 12th Annual Smackdown at "Indiana's Baddest Bull Ring," the Kokomo Speedway. As has been the case with Tafoya most of the year, the three nights of racing were in the USAC National Sprint Car Series. For the pleasant driver who turned 26 years old earlier in the season, things did not go the way he wanted at Kokomo. However, he is fired up and ready to compete in the world's premiere traditional sprint car series once again this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. After the conclusion of the Smackdown, Tafoya and the crew drove the team hauler to Texas for this week's race. They left it there and hopped on a flight home to California. They flew back to Texas Wednesday morning to get the car ready for this week's action. Even though he has not raced the full USAC National Series schedule, the personable driver is still 25th in the championship standings and is only 16 points out of 23rd heading into the three races. For fans not able to make it to Texas and Arkansas for the races, all three nights will be shown live on Flo Racing. For information on how to watch or subscribe, please visit the following link https://www.floracing.com/. The Specialty Fasteners #51T team is always exploring corporate partnership opportunities. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the hard-working sprint car squad, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at mailto:teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Tafoya's great-looking shirts and hoodies are available online at www.specialty-fasteners.com. Tafoya has a great YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51. Tafoya and the #51T team would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, DRC Chassis, Ryder Racing Engines, Simpson Safety Products, Bell, Benic Enterprises, BR Motorsports, PSC Powder Coating, Magik Graphics, Gasper Transportation, Owen's Insurance Services, and Weld Wheels for supporting its racing program.

  BRODY ROA HEADS TO TEXAS AND ARKANSAS FOR THIS WEEK'S USAC NATIONAL SPRINT CAR SERIES RACES

  (Cypress, CA, September 3, 2023) Ten weeks out of the cockpit in the middle of summer is a lot of time off for any race driver including current USAC/CRA point leader Brody Roa. That was how long it was going to be if Roa waited around for the next series race at Perris Auto Speedway on September 23rd. So, the veteran driver and Inland Rigging team owners Tom and Christy Dunkel have decided to scratch his competitive itch by heading to the USAC National Series races at the Devil's Bowl Speedway in Mesquite, Texas this Thursday, September 7th, and the Texarkana 67 Speedway in Texarkana, Arkansas on Friday, and Saturday September 8th and 9th. 361626712_6357550740947941_4537972806602874589_n.jpg Brody Roa and the Inland Rigging #17R are headed to Texas and Arkansas. Doug Allen photo. The last time Roa was on the track was at a USAC/CRA race at Perris on July 15th. On that night he won his third series main event in a row. That gave him eight wins in the first 13 USAC/CRA races of the year. In addition, in those 13 races, he has three second-place results and has only finished out of the top five one time. He has parlayed those finishes into a 151-point lead in the championship standings with only five races remaining this year. The layoff slowing Roa's current hot streak was not scheduled to be this long. In fact, there were four races on the original schedule between August 12th through September 9th. However, all of them were canceled. The Santa Maria Raceway has been shuttered all season long, and USAC/CRA races on the 59-year-old 1/3 mile on August 12th and September 9th were voided. A track for an August 26th TBA was never found. Lastly, the remnants of Hurricane Hillary forced the cancellation of the August 19th race at Perris. While the break in the schedule would not normally be well received, especially for a driver on a hot streak, it could not have come at a better time for Roa. Six weeks ago he and his wife Tailor welcomed their second daughter, Rylee Ann, into the world. The proud dad was more than occupied with helping with the new arrival and her two-year-old big sister, Addison Leanne. "It (the break in the schedule) really came at the right time," Roa confirmed. "The little one is six weeks old now and we have not had a race since she has been here. I got to spend a lot of time here (home) with everybody." While Roa is excited to take on a couple of new tracks, he is somewhat sad to see the Santa Maria shows disappear. Over the past three or four seasons he has been the driver to beat at the Santa Barbara County oval. "I have been really bummed about Santa Maria canceling all of these races," Roa lamented. "When I first started running sprint cars, I hated the place. It was always so rough it really did not fit my style. The last six or seven years it has really come around. It has been really good to us. We kind of got word that Santa Maria was not looking good (for September 9th). Tom (car owner Tom Dunkel) wanted to go racing and he said, 'I will tow your trailer out to Texas, let's do it.'" Devils Bowl is a famous racetrack that Roa has never raced on but is familiar with it from watching streamed races online. However, he had never even heard of Texarkana 67 before last week. "I have watched races from there (Devil's Bowl) for a while," Roa said. "The midget team I drove for (at the Chili Bowl), Kevin Ramey, I think he is the winningest driver there. It is a cool joint to go to with the history of it and how long it has been around. Just from watching it on video, it kind of looks like the size of Calistoga. Characteristically, it always looks smooth and slick and it does not have a wall, so I don't know if there is anything right now that I can compare it to. After Devils Bowl, we are headed to Texarkana 67 Speedway. That place I really do not have any knowledge on. I don't even know how big it is. I looked it up on Google Earth and it looks like there is a pile of dirt on turn three. I don't even know how long it has been there as this is the first time I have heard of it." "No, no," Roa laughed when asked if he would check out the tracks on a simulator. "The only one I had, I did not really use it as a practice tool. I am not really a simulator guy." In addition to all of his regular sponsors, Roa has one of his Chili Bowl Nationals sponsors on board for the three races. "Ever since the first time I ran the Chili Bowl with Kevin Ramey and Taylor Courtney, Jambo Barbeques was a big part of that deal," the 2019 USAC Southwest Series champion stated. They have all become similar to a Texas family to us. When we decided to go on this trip I called them and talked a bit. To be honest, I had not talked to them in a while. I said we are looking for a little bit of help getting there as traveling there is not cheap. They said they would help. We appreciate it as everything we get goes a long way." In addition, Roa has a t-shirt sale going on to help with expenses for the trip. 346796104_1206749826660886_1723353253831807847_n.jpg "We are doing 17% (the same number that is on both Inland Rigging sprint cars) off our t-shirts on brodyroa.com," Roa said. "All of those sales will help us get halfway across the country to the race. We are running that sale through Saturday (September 9th) at Texarkana." "I really want to thank Jambo Barbeque Pits for jumping on board for this event and all the rest of our sponsors as well," Roa intoned. "They all make it possible for trips like this to get us through the rest of the season as well. We appreciate everyone of them and everything they do for us. Without their support, we would not be racing." For fans who cannot make it to Texas or Arkansas, all three nights will be shown live from the start of hot laps through the end of the main events on Flo Racing. For information on how to watch, please visit the following link https://www.floracing.com/. Fans can pick up a 2023 Inland Rigging Racing Team shirt from the crew after the races or online brodyroa.com.

  TOMMY DUNKEL RETURNS TO SPRINT CAR ACTION THIS SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE VENTURA RACEWAY

  (Cypress, CA, August 31, 2023) After a prolonged time off due to a quirky schedule, a closed track, and because of inclement weather, Tommy Dunkel will be back in the cockpit of his immaculate Inland Rigging #17A this Saturday night in the VRA race at the Ventura Raceway. It will be his first time racing since he recorded an impressive eighth-place finish in the July 15th USAC/CRA race at Perris Auto Speedway. Dunkel's absence from racing over the last nine weeks was none of his own doing. USAC/CRA had two races slated since his last appearance with the series. He could have made the main event in one of them and still be eligible for the series 2024 Rookie of the Year award. However, the August 9th race at the Santa Maria Raceway was canceled as the track has been shuttered all season long. One week later, he planned on racing at Perris Auto Speedway, but the incoming remnants of Hurricane Hillary put the kibosh on those hopes and the race was canceled. In addition, the Ventura Raceway has been on a two-month hiatus due to the fairgrounds hosting the X Games and August's Ventura County Fair. Saturday's excursion to Ventura will see Dunkel competing on the track for the fifth time in 2023. On April 8th he raised some eyebrows in the sprint car world when he led every lap he was on the track by leading both his heat and the VRA main event green to checkers. Five weeks later in the USAC West Coast Series, he was a shoo-in for a top-five finish when he was clobbered by another car and had to restart at the back. From there, with just a few laps remaining, he raced his way forward to finish 11th. On June 17th, a tangle in the USAC West Coast Series event knocked him out of the race and burdened him with a 19th-place finish. At his last outing at the famous venue where the waves of the Pacific Ocean break a stone's throw away from the track, he came home second in the VRA main. "I think it is just seat time," Dunkel responded on why he has looked so good at Ventura. "Seat time and trusting my equipment. We have some really nice stuff underneath us right now. And the guys, Zac (Bozanich), Brody (Roa), Brett (Roa), and Joe (Joe Gibb). Those guys are really working hard to get me comfortable. With their years of experience, they can make any driver comfortable. Those are the real key factors." The top-of-the-line equipment Dunkel and teammate Brody Roa are running is Shaver Engines, DRC Chassis', and CSI Shocks. Dunkel refers to the equipment and the guidance of USAC/CRA point leader Roa and his crew as "The Magic Sauce." He figures he has only started about 30 sprint car races in his career. Thus, the help from the team and the equipment is a big boost to his racing endeavors. "I have been out of the racecar way longer than I want to be," Dunkel laughed about his nine weeks off. "We are going to do a little karting towards the end of the week just to knock the rust off. My last race was the July 15th deal at Perris. It is long overdue and we are ready to get after it. We have been doing our standard maintenance. We have been able to take the cars down just a little further than we normally do since we have been off such a long time. It has almost been like a mini off-season." If you want to see Dunkel in person on Saturday, make a trip of it and enjoy a day at the beach before walking a couple hundred feet to the track. Gates will open at 3:00 p.m. with racing at 5:30. Adults tickets are $18.00. Seniors 60 and over, military with ID, and students with ID get in for $15.00. Kids 12 and under are admitted free when they are accompanied by an adult. The track is located on the Ventura County Fairgrounds at 10 W. Harbor Boulevard (93001). The website is http://venturaraceway.com/ and the office phone number is (805) 648-RACE. Fans can pick up a 2023 Inland Rigging Racing Team shirt from the crew after the races or online at the Roa/Dunkel Inland Rigging team merchandise site. You can see the shirt design in the photo below. The shirts will be available in the pits or online at the following link https://bit.ly/3IDLNEZ.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. IS READY FOR 12TH ANNUAL SMACKDOWN AT THE KOKOMO SPEEDWAY

  (Chino, CA, August 24, 2023) After a quick south-of-the-border vacation, Southern California sprint car racer Eddie Tafoya Jr. will contest one of traditional sprint car racing's biggest events, the 12th Annual Smackdown at Indiana's "Baddest Bull Ring," the Kokomo Speedway. The three-day show, which features the USAC Amsoil National Sprint Cars, will begin tonight, August 24th, and conclude on Saturday the 26th. The prestigious race will pay the biggest purse in Indiana sprint car racing history. For 26-year-old Tafoya, it will be his third appearance in the Smackdown. Two years ago he qualified into the A main event and placed 19th. Last season's efforts came to a premature end after he got tangled up in somebody else's mistake and got upside down. Recently, Tafoya got off to a slow start in the grueling Indiana Sprint Week missing the first four main events. However, he returned to form in the last three races of the eight-race series at the Terre Haute Action Track, Lincoln Park Speedway, and Bloomington Speedway. He improved on his qualifying times and transferred from his heat straight into the main event each night. In those three A mains, he placed 19th, 18th, and 19th respectively. The final night of Indiana Sprint Week was slated to take place at the Tri-City Speedway in Haubstaudt. However, ominous weather prompted the Chino, California-based team to hightail two hours south to a Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Car Series race at the Paragon Speedway. It was Tafoya's first BOSS race and his first appearance at Paragon. He came out of the box qualifying second in his eight-car group with a lap of 16.459. As well as being second in his group, he was 20th overall of the 42 cars on hand. He started and finished third in his heat. Unfortunately, a 15th-place start was followed by a 20th-place finish in the main. Even though the personable Southern California racer has only competed in 14 of the first 28 USAC National races in 2023, he is ranked 25th in the series standings going into the Smackdown. For fans who are not in Indiana to watch Tafoya at the Smackdown, all three nights will be shown live on Flo Racing. For information on how to watch or subscribe, please visit the following link https://www.floracing.com/. The Specialty Fasteners #51T team is always exploring corporate partnership opportunities. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the hard-working sprint car squad, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at mailto:teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Tafoya's great-looking shirts and hoodies are available online at www.specialty-fasteners.com. Tafoya has a great YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51.

  SEXTON GATLIN RACING CONVERGES ON PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY THIS SATURDAY

  (Lakeside, CA, August 18, 2023) Just back from last week's Minn-Kota Summer Nationals in Minnesota and North Dakota, Sexton Gatlin Racing is sending three cars to compete at the famous Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday night, August 19th. Heading the team is USAC/CRA Series Rookie of the Year point leader Grant Sexton. He is being joined by his brother Dalton and his father Brent. Grant will be competing in the USAC/CRA portion of the show while Dalton and Brent will be racing with the POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprints. In his first full season racing 410 sprint cars, Grant, 19, has impressively clawed his way all the way up to seventh in the USAC/CRA championship point standings. Additionally, the rising young star has increased his advantage in the Rookie of the Year title chase to 311 points. With only six races remaining on the 2023 schedule after Saturday, the teen already has one hand on the Rookie of the Year trophy. Grant is a much different driver than he was at the start of the year as experience and confidence are shining through more and more each race. In the last two series races, he has had his best main event finish and first heat race win. The best finish was a fifth at the Bakersfield Speedway on June 24th and the heat race triumph came at Perris Auto Speedway on July 15th. Defending POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprint Car Series champion Brent Sexton enters Saturday's fray third in series points. With the second-place driver ruled out for the year after a nonracing injury suffered on Thursday night, Brent will move up to the second-place spot on Saturday. He comes into the race 143 points behind the series leader. With five races to go after Saturday, he has plenty of time to hack away at the leader's advantage before the end of the season. In the first two SWLS races on the Perris half-mile this season, Brent has a win and a second-place finish. He has one other victory this year and that came at Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway on April 1st. Rounding out SGR's effort at Perris will be Dalton Sexton. A contender for the SWLS title last year, Saturday will only be his fourth race of 2023. He placed third at Perris on April 15th and was 14th in the main event at the Imperial Valley Raceway on March 10th. His only other race this year came at the Mohave Valley Raceway on April 1st and he did not start the main event. The last two times USAC/CRA has raced at Perris, Brent made his first two starts in the series placing seventh and 18th. However, after the last race he sold the car he had been driving. He is currently in the market for a strong 410 engine. If you have one for sale or know of someone who does, you can email or phone Brent using the contact information in this release. Adult tickets to see SGR in action at Perris on Saturday are $30.00. For seniors 65 and over, it is $25.00. Kids six to twelve get in for just $5.00 and children five and under are admitted free. The fairgrounds charges $10.00 for parking. Advanced tickets are available until noon on race day online at https://www.tix.com/ticket-sales/pas/7 or by calling 1-800-595-4849. For fans who do not wish to buy advance tickets, there will be plenty available for everyone at the ticket window on Saturday. Perris Auto Speedway is conveniently located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds (home of the Southern California Fair), one-hour east of Los Angeles and one-hour North of San Diego. To get to the track, take the 215 freeway, exit on the Ramona Expressway, and go three miles east to the fairgrounds. For directions online, the address to enter is: 18700 Lake Perris Drive and the zip code is 92571. If you or your company are interested in becoming a partner with Sexton Gatlin Racing in 2023, please call (619) 454-6945 or E-mail mailto:sextonfire@cox.net or mail to.

  INLAND RIGGING SPRINT CAR TEAM RETURNS TO ACTION SATURDAY AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY

  (Cypress, CA, August 17, 2023) After a month off in the middle of their schedule, Inland Rigging Sprint Car Team drivers Brody Roa and Tommy Dunkel will be back in action when the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series visits Perris Auto Speedway, this Saturday night, August 5th. The spectator gates for the four-division open wheel show will open at 5:00 p.m. and the first race will get the green flag at 7:00. Roa, who lives in Garden Grove, California, has a comfortable 151-point lead in the series championship standings. The 2019 USAC Southwest Sprint Car Series champion has won eight of the first 13 races in 2023. The affable driver comes into Saturday riding the crest of a three-race win streak. The last time any other driver won a series race was nearly three months ago. In addition to the eight wins, he also has three second-place finishes and a fifth. The only time he did not finish in the top five came when he was leading the Salute to Indy at the end of May. Late in the going a lapped car clobbered him and knocked him out of action with a frustrating 15th-place finish. Needless to say, Roa is over the moon with his results so far in 2023. "Things could not have gone much better this year," Roa told Dave Stall on Sunday's edition of the Racer Radio Show. "We are leading the points and it has just been an incredible year so far. We have such great car owners. Tom and Christy Dunkel have done so much for racing. They sponsor young drivers and everything. It is just awesome. They are such good people. They have a young daughter and our daughter just loves her." The time away from the track over the past month could not have come at a better time. Four days after his last triumph, Roa and his wife Tailor welcomed their second daughter, Rylee Ann, to the world. It was a good time to be away from the racecar for a bit. Roa's teammate and car owner, Tommy Dunkel, will be making what could be his final USAC/CRA start of 2023 on Saturday. The Menifee, California based driver has his eyes on running for the USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year award in 2024. As per the rules, drivers cannot start more than four series main events and still be eligible to run for Rookie of the Year. Thus far he has started three mains. His best outing was at the last race when he placed eighth at Perris on July 15th. He also had an 11th at Mohave Valley Raceway on May 6th. Seven weeks later he came home 14th at Bakersfield.

  CHANCE MEETING NETS SEXTON GATLIN RACING A MORE THAN QUARTER OF A CENTURY SPONSORSHIP

  (Lakeside, CA, July 31, 2023) The scene was the campground at Perris Auto Speedway during a World of Outlaws Sprint Car race over 25 years ago. Brent Sexton, still in the first half of his twenties, was a young race car driver. While only there to observe the action on the weekend, he did score a major win. Camped next to him at the track were brothers Jimmy and Scotty Keys. They quickly struck up a friendship that turned into a sponsorship that has carried on non-stop to this day. The Simi Valley, California-based brothers are separated by 165 miles from Sexton who lives in Lakeside, California. Now retired, the siblings were lighting technicians at NBC Universal. Spending time traveling the country in the entertainment industry, their off-time passion was racing and they immediately saw something they liked in the young driver. The rest is history. They first sponsored Sexton in lightning sprints. They expanded their sponsorship when both of Sexton's sons joined him in lightnings. Today, the Keys Brothers Racing logo appears on the Sexton's lightning sprint cars and the cars they race in the USAC/CRA Series. "We met at the World of Outlaws race at Perris and we just hit it off," Brent Sexton reminisced. "We hit it off when we were partying at the campground. It has been a long, great friendship. I told them I raced lightning sprints but at that time, I do not think they knew what that was." "They worked in the entertainment industry and traveled all over the country working on a lot of big movies," the talkable Sexton continued. "They are just huge racing fans. They have sponsored us every year. It is not just us. They sponsor Shane (Sexton's nephew Shane Sexton), Rickey Lewis, and AJ Bender. They are just big-time into it. They go to all of the sprint car races. Sprint cars are their passion." Sexton mentioned a handful of drivers but the Keys Brothers logo has appeared on other driver's cars as well. In addition, you always hear their name over the track's P.A. when funds have been collected for special bonus money for a race. They never stop giving. "They always told us to wait until we, 'hit the big time, we will still be helping you,'" Sexton explained. "You hear that from a lot of people and it does not pan out with most. But Jimmy and Scotty have stuck with us through all of these years. Their logo is on all of our cars. We feel so lucky to have them as sponsors but even more so as friends. They are just great people." Next week, Sexton Gatlin Racing will embark on a trip to Minnesota and North Dakota to compete in the 3rd Annual POWRi Minn-Kota Lightning Sprint Car Series Summer Nationals. Keys Brothers logos will be on the cars there. When that race is over, they will high tail it back to Southern California for a USAC/CRA race at Perris, and Keys Brothers logos will be on those cars as well. In fact, Keys Brothers will be a part of every race SGR competes in for years to come.

  GRANT SEXTON CAPTURES HIS FIRST-EVER USAC/CRA HEAT RACE WIN

  (Lakeside, CA, July 25, 2023) The last time the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars visited Perris Auto Speedway, leading rookie Grant Sexton achieved another first in his budding career when he won his first series heat race. The victory in the 10-lapper came hot on the heels of his first series top-five finish when he placed fifth at the Bakersfield Speedway on June 24th. At Perris, Sexton was joined by his father Brent in Sexton Gatlin Racing-owned cars on the sizzling California night. The father and son duo met up with a stellar field of 23 other racers at the track located 70 miles east of Los Angeles. Grant, who turned 19 years old the day after the race, launched his night with a fine 17.190 lap in qualifying. That was the 13th fastest of the 25 cars on hand. Brent, using a 360 cubic inch engine against the field of 410s, stopped the clocks at 18.217. That was the 17th quickest on the night. Grant's milestone heat win came in the first 10-lapper. He started on the outside of the front row. Coincidentally, Brent was in the exact same heat race and started shotgun on the field in eighth. Once starter Steve Russell threw the green flag to send the field on its way, Grant immediately jumped into the lead. The teen hit his marks throughout the race and led every inch of the way for his initial heat victory in the series. Brent, a 50-year-old native of Tennessee who was contesting his second USAC/CRA event, advanced one spot to finish seventh. The Lakeside, California-based team was looking good going into the 30-lap main event. However, it did not take long before things started to head south. At 3:00 p.m. the temperature at the famous track was a sizzling 103 degrees. While it did cool down some before the main event, it was still hot. Brent, who finished seventh in his first race in the series five weeks earlier, started the main in the 22nd spot. He was poised and ready to make another charge through the pack. However, the heat combined with a plethora of yellow flags early in the race saw his engine get hot. Rather than risk blowing it up, he wisely decided to leave the race after 19 laps and ended up with an 18th-place finish. While it was a disappointing conclusion, in both of his USAC/CRA starts he has advanced forward. Three laps after Brent pulled off, Grant's night ended prematurely when another car tangled with him coming off turn four. Unfortunately, damage to the right rear, while not heavy, was enough to knock him out of the race. He started the main in 13th and ended up 16th bringing an end to the night for Sexton Gatlin Racing. Even though Grant was not on the track for the final eight laps of the main, he still managed to maintain his seventh spot in the series championship standings. He also extended his lead to 311 points in the Rookie of the Year chase. There is a race coming up on August 5th for the POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprint Cars at the Barona Speedway. Normally, SGR would be there. This time the team may forgo that event. Two days later they are headed out for the four-race 3rd Annual POWRi Minn-Kota Lightning Sprint Car Series Summer Nationals in Minnesota and North Dakota. The last thing the team wants to do is tear up a car two days before they leave. After the finale of the Minn-Kota Nationals on Sunday, August 13th, Sexton Gatlin Racing will hightail it back to California for the August 19th USAC/CRA race at Perris Auto Speedway. Grant will be racing that one for sure. However, the team sold the #22X Brent had been driving. Right now, SGR is looking to buy a 360 or 410 engine or a turn-key car to race in the USAC/CRA Series and USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series. If you have or know of one, contact Brent Sexton at the information at the top of this press release.

  GREAT THINGS HAPPENING FOR INLAND RIGGING SPRINT CAR TEAM DRIVERS

  (Cypress, CA, July 24, 2023) Things cannot get much better for Inland Rigging Sprint Car team drivers Brody Roa and Tommy Dunkel. At the last USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series race at Perris Auto Speedway, Roa won his eighth series main event in the first 13 races of the year. Dunkel started 20th in his first series race at the track he grew up at and finished an impressive eighth. Four days later, Roa and his wife Tailor welcomed their second daughter, Ryley Ann, into the world. With a lot on his mind, Roa was not even sure he was going to be able to make the race due to the upcoming arrival. However, as he told the crowd after the win, "She must be a race fan as she waited to arrive so I could come and race tonight." Just like her sister Addison Leanne, she will be a fan and proud of what her daddy can do on the racetrack, just like he did in picking up his eighth win of the year. Starting fifth in the main, Roa, who lives in Garden Grove, California, bided his time and methodically worked his way toward the front of the pack. On the 17th go around, he snatched the lead and established a good size advantage. However, yellow flags late in the race saw his sizable lead disappear. Each time Roa faced stiff challenges but he managed to fend them off for his third win in a row, his eighth victory of the year, and his 21st all-time series triumph. That moved him into the fourth-place slot in USAC/CRA history. Dunkel, who had family, including his sister who flew in from Nebraska, and clients in the crowd, was over the moon with his performance. Racing on the track and in the series where so many of his boyhood memories were etched into his mind was a lifelong dream. Perhaps, the outcome was an even bigger dream realized. He started the 25-car main event in the 20th position. Driving a 360 cubic inch engine versus a field of 410s, he stayed out of trouble, advanced forward, and finished eighth. "Oh man, I am over the top," Dunkel related a couple of days after the race. "I went into that deal just wanting to get some good laps, get some seat time and experience. To not finish at the tail was kind of a goal. But to actually work my way up, pass cars and run with the 410 guys, and finish in the top 10, that just exceeded our expectations by miles." Coming from near the back, Dunkel not only passed cars, but he avoided crashes that were quite frequent in the 30-lapper. "Looking ahead and driving the cars in front of you just like you are driving your own car, that really helped in steering clear of that stuff," Dunkel said. "Earning some positions too, while trying to fight the carnage and the dust, just made it that much more satisfying." "We were pretty good right out of the gate," Dunkel said about how his #17A Inland Rigging Car performed all night. "We did play with some fuel settings just because the air was so bad with the heat and smoke from the nearby fires. We tuned on that before the main event but nothing more than standard adjustments." While Dunkel, who also owns the team, was excited about his performance, he was just as happy with Roa's. The veteran driver has jelled perfectly in his new ride and the boss is happy to have him on board. "We are ecstatic with what Brody is doing," Dunkel said about himself and his wife Christy. "We couldn't be happier for him on a personal level to achieve what he has this year. We are really happy for him, his dad and Zac (crew chief Zac Bozanich), and the whole crew. Those guys have been in it for a lot of years. I feel really fortunate to be a part of the success this year with those guys." Before the main event rolled around, Roa was second fastest in qualifying with a lap of 16.562. Dunkel steered his immaculate car to a 17.844 on his first-ever qualifying lap on the famous west coast oval. They were matched up in the same 10-lap heat race with Roa taking third after starting sixth. Dunkel began and finished eighth. The team has some weekends off right now which will come in handy at the Roa household with the arrival of their new bundle of joy. Roa will be racing again at Perris on August 19th. The series has a race scheduled at the Santa Maria Raceway a week prior, but the track has been shuttered all year long. As this piece went to press that race is still on the schedule. If it takes place, the team will be there. Dunkel can start one more USAC/CRA main event this year and still be eligible to compete for Rookie of the Year in 2024. In addition to taking advantage of that one race, he will also be contesting other races this season in the USAC West Coast Series and the Ventura Racing Association. Fans can pick up a 2023 Inland Riggings Racing Team shirt from the crew after the races or online at The brand new Roa/Dunkel Inland Rigging team merchandise, including shirts, is now available. You can see the shirt design in the photo below. The shirts will be available in the pits or online at the following link https://bit.ly/3IDLNEZ. As always, Roa would be more than happy to jump in a race car on his weekends off from the #17R. His entire schedule is printed below. If anybody wishes to contact him about open dates, they can do so at 714-932-7994 or mailto:brodyroa91@gmail.com The team wants to thank the following sponsors for making the 2023 season possible.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. BACK IN INDIANA FOR THE GRUELING INDIANA SPRINT WEEK

  (Chino, CA, July 19, 2023) Southern California sprint car racer Eddie Tafoya Jr. returns to racing this coming Friday night when the 2023 NOS Energy USAC Indiana Sprint Week Presented by Honest Abe Roofing kicks off. The mini-series within the USAC National Series will see Tafoya race eight times, on eight different tracks in nine days. For Tafoya, who recently turned 26 years old, it will be his third sojourn east to compete with the USAC National Series this year. Making the decision to confine most of his racing to the Midwest-based series, Friday will be his 11th race of the season that commenced in Florida in February. In reality, it should have been his 20th start of the year. However, seven of the races on his schedule were knocked out by rain. Thus far he has made six starts with USAC National and has qualified for the A main four times. His best finish of the four was a 13th-place result at Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Florida on February 14th. Closer to home, the Chino Hills, California habitant has started three races in the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series. His best finishes in the west coast series came on his home track, Perris Auto Speedway, where he placed ninth on March 18th and eighth on April 15th. Tafoya started one other race in 2023 and that came at the I-70 Motorsports Park in Odessa, Missouri on April 29th. There he scored his best finish of the year when he came home in seventh. After his appearance at GAS City on the 21st, the 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year will race at the Kokomo Speedway, Lawrenceburg Speedway, and Circle City Speedway from July 22nd through the 24th. On the 25th, Tafoya and the other racers will get one night off to work on their cars, and get some rest. Starting up again on the 26th, it will be four straight nights of action at the Terre Haute Action Track, Lincoln Park Speedway, Bloomington Speedway and finally winding up at the Tri-State Speedway. Tafoya, the 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year, last appeared at Indiana Sprint Week in 2021. He made the main events at Terre Haute and Tri-State and finished 22nd in both. It should be noted that at Terre Haute, he had a good run going before getting clobbered on the back straight and knocked out of the race. After Indiana Sprint Week, Tafoya is slated to return to the Hoosier State for the 12th annual SmackDown at the Kokomo Speedway on August 24th, 25th and 26th. For fans who cannot make it to Indiana to watch Tafoya at Indiana Sprint Week, all eight of the races will be shown on live Flo Racing. For information on how to watch or subscribe, please visit the following link https://www.floracing.com/. The Specialty Fasteners #51T team is always exploring corporate partnership opportunities.

  DUNKEL GETS 2ND AT VENTURA - JOINS BRODY ROA THIS SATURDAY IN USAC/CRA RACE AT PERRIS

  (Cypress, CA, July 12, 2023) Tommy Dunkel had another impressive performance at the Ventura Raceway when he came from 10th to finish second in last Saturday's VRA main event. This Saturday the Menifee, California racer will realize a boyhood dream when he competes with the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars at Perris Auto Speedway. Dunkel will be joined by his Inland Rigging teammate and current USAC/CRA point leader Brody Roa. image_50736641.JPG Tommy Dunkel get congratulations from his biggest fan, his daughter Ava, after finishing second at Ventura. Dunkel Family photo. Seventeen VRA (Ventura Racing Association) cars showed up to battle at the track located on the beach at the Ventura County Fairgrounds. Dunkel drew into the first group for hot laps/qualifying. That proved to be a problem as the track was not quite ready and he and the others in his bracket ended up behind on the time charts. He then started and finished fifth in his heat race. "It was kind of one lane in the heat race," Dunkel said afterward. "Everybody pretty much finished where they started including myself. The car was pretty good. Really, because we went green too early, we had no data to go by on what to do to the car other than past experience. Between me running there last year and this year and having Brody and Zac (crew chief Zac Bozanich) both there, not doing well in hot laps was not the end of the world." Dunkel and his white #17A Inland Rigging Special started the 25-lap main event in the 10th spot. From there, he did nothing but move forward. "The track was pretty nice for the main," Dunkel explained. "The top was the fastest, but you could kind of run the bottom if you hit it perfect. It was really nice. Probably the nicest Ventura has been in a while. Right off the bat I picked off two cars on the opening lap. I then kind of settled into the seventh or eighth position. A couple of guys got together up front. So, that was a couple of gimmes that moved me up to sixth or fifth. From there I started picking cars off." Dunkel was clearly the quickest car on the track at that point. So fast that he chased down the leader and it looked like he may have been able to take his second main of the year at the longtime racing facility. "I caught the leader with about five to go," Dunkel enthused. "I was driving my tail off to get there. We had a late race caution with I think three to go. Unfortunately, I was running out of steam. I was pretty tired by the time I got up to second. So, that is all she wrote, but we were damn close." Growing up in the Inland Empire, Dunkel attended a lot of races at Perris Auto Speedway. Little did he know as a kid that he would not only be racing sprint cars but would also own the car driven by Roa, the USAC/CRA Series point leader and winningest driver in 2023. While he has raced with Roa and the other stars in the USAC/CRA Series at other tracks this year, this will be the first time he will be doing it on his field of dreams. "This one is a big one for me," Dunkel enthusiastically said. "Growing up watching these guys, it is kind of a dream come true. It has all come full circle to go there and start a CRA race at the track I have been going to since I was a little boy. It is pretty exciting and it means a lot. I know I am going there to put in some seat time and get in some good laps. Those are my expectations. I just want to put together a good run and get some experience. That takes a lot of pressure off. I am going into this one pretty relaxed. When I go to some of the smaller tracks, I know I can do well so I put a lot of pressure on myself." Roa will also be flying the Inland Rigging banner on Saturday night. Thus far in 2022 the Garden Grove, California driver has had a phenomenal season. The 2019 USAC Southwest Sprint Car Series champion comes into Saturday with a 117-point lead in the USAC/CRA Series standings. He has won seven of the first 12 races of the season and brings a two-race win streak into Saturday. In addition to his prowess on the track this year, Roa has something else to be excited about at the present time. The friendly driver and his wife Tailor are awaiting the birth of their second daughter. For fans who would like to witness Saturday's race in person, spectator gates will open at 5:00 p.m. with racing at 7:00. Adult tickets are $30.00. For seniors 65 and over, it is $25.00. Kids 6-12 get in for $5.00 and children 5 and under are admitted free. The fairgrounds charge $10.00 for parking. Advanced tickets are available until noon on race day online at https://www.tix.com/ticket-sales/pas/7 or by calling 1-800-595-4849. Fans can pick up a 2023 Inland Riggings Racing Team shirt from the crew after the races or online at The brand new Roa/Dunkel Inland Rigging team merchandise, including shirts, is now available. You can see the shirt design in the photo below. The shirts will be available in the pits or online at the following link https://bit.ly/3IDLNEZ.

  Hunter Kohn And Tate Gurney Top Dirt2Media NOW600 For the First Time At Mitchell County Fairgrounds Raceway

  Bryan Hulbert - BELOIT, Kan. (July 12, 2023) Adding their names to the list of winners with the Dirt2Media National Open Wheel 600 Series presented by Hi-Plains Building Division, Hunter Kohn and Tate Gurney mastered the Mitchell County Fairgrounds Raceway Wednesday night during the Chad McDaniel Memorial. A nearly relentless battle for the top spot that saw Cale Coons throwing slide jobs at every turn, the Indiana racer pulled ahead of the No. 48 a few times but was never able to officially lead a lap. From as little as 0.046-seconds on Lap 9, to as much as 0.658-seconds on Lap 16, the pair traded around the top spot numerous times, with Kohn winning the drag race off the final turn by 0.139-seonds. Cale Coons, in second, was followed by Trey Zorn, who battled into second at one point before getting shuffled back to a bronze finish. Bobby Eubanks and Jacob Latta made up the top five. Likewise, for the Restricted feature, the question of who would win was up in the air nearly every time Tate Gurney and Braxton Weger rolled by the flag stand. Side by side through the mid-point of the 20-lap feature, Weger led from the start, with Gurney able to sneak into the lead on Lap 10, but would have to regroup as Braxton shot back to the point a lap later. Trading lines and adjusting tactics, the pair finally swapped for good on Lap 14. Able to finally start putting distance on the field, Gurney would ultimately take the KKM No. 71 to a 2.647-second lead at the finish. Braxton Weger crossed second, followed by Kyle Hooper, Kasen Zorn, and Gavyn Bolt to complete the top five. Running alongside the USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship, the theme for the night was the same with them as Bryant Wiedeman wheeled to his first career victory. The next event for the Dirt2Media National Open Wheel 600 Series presented by Hi-Plains Building Division is Friday, July 28, and Saturday, July 29, at KAM Raceway in Hastings, Neb. The 2023 season marks the 11th year of competition for the National Open Wheel 600 Series. Anchored by the Dirt2Media NOW600 National Championship, the NOW600 Series comprises several regional tours and sanctioned racetracks. The NOW600 National Championship features three divisions of 600cc micro sprints at each event: Stock Non-Wing, Winged A-Class, and Restricted 'A' Class.

  HIGHLY COMPETITIVE USAC/CRA SPRINT CARS BACK AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY ON SATURDAY

  (Perris, CA, July 11, 2023) The first four times Heimark Distributors Anheuser Busch has presented the Amsoil USAC/CRA Sprint Cars at Perris Auto Speedway in 2023, the races have been extremely competitive. In fact, the first four races produced four different winners. In the other eight series races of 2023 staged on five different tracks, only three different drivers have posted wins. For fans who wish to see if a different driver will take home the checkered at The PAS on Saturday, spectator gates will open at 5:00 p.m. and the racing will commence at 7:00. Thus far in 2023, the defending USAC National Sprint Car Series champion Justin Grant of Ion, California, Yorba Linda, California's Matt Mitchell, Tommy "Thunder" Malcolm of Yucaipa, California, and the current USAC/CRA point leader, Brody Roa of Garden Grove, California, have all been first to the checkered flag at The PAS. All but Grant should be on hand on Saturday. "Thus far the competition level has been great this year," promoter Don Kazarian said. "The races have been competitive and exciting. In addition to having four different winners thus far, the racing in the pack has been incredible. We expect to see more of the same thing on Saturday. There are several capable drivers who have not won here this year. They are due." Roa not only leads the series in points, but he also leads in wins this year. In the first 12 races, he emerged the victor on seven occasions. His last win at the Richie McGowan Memorial on June 17th at the Bakersfield Speedway was his 20th-lifetime in the series. That tied him for fourth all-time with the now series race director Tony Jones. He nearly had one more win this year and that came at The PAS at the Salute to Indy on Memorial Day weekend. While enjoying a sizable lead late in the race, a lapped car turned down the track, made contact, and sent Roa catapulting into the wall. The crash destroyed his car and he ended up with a 15th-place finish. It was the only time in 12 USAC/CRA races this year that he finished outside of the top five. Another notable feat accomplished at The PAS this year has been the qualifying efforts of Cody Williams. The affable driver who became a father for the fourth time last month, has captured the Woodland Auto Display Fast Time Award at three of the four races on the famous Riverside County half-mile clay oval. The only time the Norco, California-based racer was not the fast qualifier came on April 15th when his 16.350 was just a tick slower than Matt Mitchell's 16.335. The oldest son of National Sprint Car Hall of Famer Rip Williams, his qualifying times at Perris have been amazingly consistent with all of them being within a half-second of each other. His season-opening lap of 16.115 is the fastest of any driver at The PAS this year. His other three laps were 16.350, 16.340, and 16.605. Unfortunately, after placing sixth and 10th in the first two Perris races of the season, disaster struck Williams at The PAS on May 27th and June 10th when violent crashes destroyed two of his cars. In addition to the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars, The PAS Senior & Young Gun Sprints will also be in action. Spectator gates will open at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday with racing at 7:00. Adult tickets are $30.00. For seniors 65 and over, it is $25.00. Kids 6-12 get in for $5.00 and children 5 and under are admitted free. The fairgrounds charge $10.00 for parking. Advanced tickets for every race at The PAS are available until noon on race day online at https://www.tix.com/ticket-sales/pas/7 or by calling 1-800-595-4849. For fans who do not wish to buy advance tickets, there will be plenty available for everyone at the ticket window each race night. Perris Auto Speedway is conveniently located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds (home of the Southern California Fair), one-hour east of Los Angeles and one-hour North of San Diego. To get to the track, take the 215 freeway, exit on the Ramona Expressway, and go three miles east to the fairgrounds. The address is 18700 Lake Perris Drive and the zip code is 92571.

  PAS SENIOR & YOUNG GUN SPRINTS, AND AMERICAN FACTORY STOCKS JOIN USAC/CRA SPRINT CARS AT PERRIS

  (Perris, CA, July 11, 2023) When Heimark Distributors Anheuser Busch presents the Amsoil USAC/CRA Sprint Cars at Perris Auto Speedway this Saturday night, July 15th, three other divisions will be joining the show. The PAS Senior & Young Gun Sprints and the PASSCAR American Factory Stocks will be a part of the exciting four-division program. The Senior Sprints saw their first action at the PAS in 2011. A spinoff of the series from the Ventura Raceway, it is for drivers 40 and over who want to compete, but not necessarily in the intense Amsoil USAC/CRA Series. Anaheim's Dale Gamer, a past Speedway Motorcycle racer and current California Lightning Sprint Car driver, leads the Senior Sprint Car standings heading into Saturday's race. The defending class champion is 30 points ahead of Santa Fe Springs veteran Ed Schwarz. Bob Suchy of Tustin, Chris Wakim of Simi Valley and Palmdale's Rick Hendrix round out the top five. Through the first four races of the 2023 season, four different drivers have posted wins in the Seniors. Hendrix, who earlier in his career raced at Ascot and who won championships in the USAC ¾ Midgets, USAC Western States Midgets, and the USAC Western Sprint Cars, captured the first main event of the year in March. Hendrix has also won Senior Sprint titles at both The PAS and the Ventura Raceway. Wakim made a rare PAS appearance and won the main on April 22nd. At the Salute to Indy on May 27th, Bruce Douglass, 71 years old, made his first PAS appearance in years a successful one when he outdistanced the field for the win. The Ventura local was The PAS Senior champion nine years ago. The last Senior main on June 10th went to Schwarz. The Young Guns class is comprised of drivers aged 14-25 (occasionally an older driver is allowed to compete in the class). Teen Blake Hendricks, who has two wins in his first season racing at The PAS, has a slender lead in the championship standings. Recent New Cuyama high school graduate Elexa Herrera only trails Hendricks by three points. Fourteen-year-old Cash Culp, who has one win this year, is currently third and only one point behind Herrera. If that is not tight enough, Brandon Nelson of Arroyo Grande, who has the other class win this year, only trails Culp by two points. Defending Young Guns champion Stevie Rogers of Apple Valley is fifth. However, she is only 11 points out of first. The PASSCAR Factory Stocks will make their fourth appearance of 2023 on Saturday. Menifee's Kris Carnish, who has a win, a second, and a third in the first three races, currently sits on top of the Factory Stock points. On an emotional night four weeks ago, he took the main event win just hours after his father had a heart transplant. Fellow Menifee driver David Uraine is eight points behind Carnish going into Saturday's race. Norco's Ethan Kintop, and Austyn Jaramillo of Winchester are third and fourth. Fifth is Buena Park's Peyton Griffin. She is another recent high school graduate who is headed to Golden West College as a soccer goalie. Spectator gates will open at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday with racing at 7:00. Adult tickets are $30.00. For seniors 65 and over, it is $25.00. Kids 6-12 get in for $5.00 and children 5 and under are admitted free. The fairgrounds charge $10.00 for parking.

  Carrick, Fuson, Albright and Jinkerson claim wins on Burgers & Brew Night in Placerville

  Placerville, CA…Lincoln's Tanner Carrick had been ultra consistent this year at Placerville Speedway and on "Burgers & Brew Night" the 21-year-old put it all together for his first triumph of the season. Joining Carrick in victory lane on Saturday were Bakersfield's Brody Fuson with the USAC Western States Midgets, Waterford's Dakota Albright with the BCRA Lightning Sprints and Diamond Springs' Dan Jinkerson with the Red Hawk Casino Pure Stocks. All winners went home with a meat box package valued at $300 courtesy of Kings Meats and a wine mix assortment thanks to Solid Ground Brewing. The enthusiastic crowd saw some wild action during the night. The 25-lap Thompson's Family of Dealerships Winged Sprint Car feature saw Tanner Carrick jump into the lead and easily distance himself from the rest of the pack. Lots of moving and shaking was going on behind him though as Seth Standley, Michael Faccinto, Landon Brooks, Tony Gomes, Michael Ing and others went back and forth. Lap nine saw Gomes and Ing make contact, resulting in Ing coming to a stop over the edge of the corner. Once Ing was pushed off however, he drove up and contacted Gomes under caution, which saw both drivers come to a stop. The red lights were then flashed on, and officials allowed Gomes to make repairs, while keeping his spot in fourth at the same time. Once going back green, two more laps were clicked off, before a caution waved yet again. On the double file restart, point leader Faccinto shot into the lead, only to see the yellow lights come on for a jump start call. He was then docked two spots for being deemed early and on the ensuing restart things began to heat up again. With Carrick up front having his way, Gomes worked his way forward and did his best to catch the leader. A final restart with three laps to go saw Gomes keep him honest, but Carrick hit his marks on the final circuit to accept the Ron Stahl checkered flag. It marked his seventh career Winged 360 triumph at the track. Gomes finished second, with Brooks capping a strong night by finishing third. The Rio Oso racer set fast time and captured his heat race in exciting fashion earlier on. Faccinto crossed the line in fourth with Bubba Decaires having a fantastic run from 14th to fifth. Decaires looked very racy in the main event. Rounding out the top-10 were Dominic Gorden, 16th started Jake Morgan, Michael Sellers, Luke Hayes and Gauge Garcia. Winged Sprint Car results: 1. 83T-Tanner Carrick[2]; 2. 7C-Tony Gomes[9]; 3. 94X-Landon Brooks[5]; 4. X1-Michael Faccinto[4]; 5. 94-Greg Decaires V[14]; 6. 10-Dominic Gorden[6]; 7. 45-Jake Morgan[16]; 8. 15-Michael Sellers[11]; 9. 9L-Luke Hayes[7]; 10. 21X-Gauge Garcia[15]; 11. 83SA-Isaiah Vasquez[13]; 12. 21-Shane Hopkins[10]; 13. 87-Ashlyn Rodriguez[8]; 14. 25S-Seth Standley[1]; 15. 98-Chris Masters[12]; 16. 33T-Jimmy Trulli[17]; 17. 21M-Michael Ing[3] The 30-lap USAC Western States Midget feature saw former series champion Blake Bower take the early lead, before two-time champ Michael Faccinto carved his way by on lap four. Some of the best entertainment in the main event came from Cade Lewis, who ran the high side like a young Jac Haudenschild. After bringing out an early caution Lewis blasted through the field and got back up third with 16 laps complete. As he rapidly closed on Faccinto and runner up Brody Fuson, Lewsi got into the cushion a bit too hard and stalled the car, ending his stellar run. After the restart Fuson made the pass of Faccinto in impressive fashion and went on to accept the checkered flag. Faccinto, Randi Pankratz, Danika Jo Faccinto and Ron Hazleton completed the top-five. USAC Western States Midgets results: 1. 51-Brody Fuson[6]; 2. 14J-Michael Faccinto[5]; 3. 8-Randi Pankratz[2]; 4. 13-Danika Jo Faccinto[4]; 5. 15-Ron Hazelton[9]; 6. 14JR-Ben Worth[8]; 7. 65-Ben Covich[11]; 8. 78-Marvin Mitchell[12]; 9. 00-Blake Bower[1]; 10. 5K-Cade Lewis[3]; 11. 7L-Kevin Gray[10]; 12. 20-CJ Sarna[7] The 20-lap Tracy Taylor Memorial for the BCRA Wingless Lightning Sprints saw Dakota Albright lead up front for the duration, but several others did not make it easy on him. Youngster David Gasper, Winged Sprint Car regular Shane Hopkins and others raced high and low on the bullring. Lightning Sprint legend Scott Kinney looked early on that he may have a shot at the win but encountered issues with 11 laps down. Hopkins then appeared to have a car to beat but hopped over a right rear just past the halfway point, which sent him for a set of barrel rolls. He luckily emerged okay but was done for the race. After that Gasper ran the ragged edge in his attempt to get by the leader, but Albright never wavered en route to the victory. Gasper ended up second, with Greg Dennett, Cody Meyers and Zack Schmidt rounding out the top-five. BCRA Lightning Sprints results: 1. 35JR-Dakota Albright[2]; 2. 51-David Gasper[5]; 3. 47-Greg Dennett[7]; 4. 17F-Cody Meyer[4]; 5. 21C-Zack Schmidt[10]; 6. 21-Shane Hopkins[6]; 7. 91-Matt Land[9]; 8. 00-Bradley Schmidt[1]; 9. 9-Scott Kinney[3]; 10. 25K-Hunter Kinney[8]; 11. 22-Jason Schostag[11] The Red Hawk Casino Pure Stocks displayed several thrills of their own on Burgers and Brew Night. The 20-lap finale saw Oakley's Nick Baldwin and Dan Jinkerson battle it out with the duo racing inches apart from each other. Fourth of July winner Thomas Arbogast then joined the party and made it a three car fight up front. At one point in heavy duty lapped traffic the trio zigged and zagged their way down the front stretch, as the crowd came to their feet. Jinkerson ultimately withstood every challenge from Arbogast as the race wound down to pick up his 38th career Pure Stock win at Placerville Speedway. Arbogast capped a solid week by finishing in the runner up spot, followed by Baldwin, Kevin Jinkerson and Bill O'Neal. Pure Stock results: 1. 52-Dan Jinkerson[3]; 2. 86-Thomas Arbogast[5]; 3. 17-Nick Baldwin[1]; 4. 30-Kevin Jinkerson[4]; 5. 23-Bill O'Neal[8]; 6. 83-Ryan Peter[7]; 7. 43-Kenny Bernstein[2]; 8. 1-Chris D'angelo[9]; 9. 55-Micky Dangelo[10]; 10. 47-Michael Murphy[6]; 11. 93-Mel Byers[11]; 12. 27-William Upton[12] The Placerville Speedway returns to racing this coming Saturday July 15th with Red Hawk Casino Night.

  TOMMY DUNKEL RETURNS TO THE VENTURA RACEWAY SATURDAY NIGHT

  (Cypress, CA, July 7, 2023) Tommy Dunkel and his all-star pit crew will return to Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway this Saturday night for another round of action in the Ventura Racing Association. It will be Dunkel's fourth race of the year on the 1/5 mile oval located on the beach at the Ventura County Fairgrounds. Dunkel, who lives in Menifee, California hauled his white Inland Rigging #17A to Ventura for the first time in 2023 on April 8th. He surprised everyone by dominating the action leading every lap in both his heat and the main event. He returned on May 13th with the USAC/West Coast Sprint Car Series. On that occasion, he qualified 13th fastest and once again led his heat race wire to wire. He started seventh in the main and was running ninth, but on the first lap after a late race yellow, he got "monster trucked" from behind. He had to restart at the back and came all the way forward to 11th before time ran out. The last time he was at Ventura was the June 24th USAC West Coast Series event. He began the main 21st and by the midway point in the race he had charged all the way up to 11th. He was poised to take 10th when a yellow flag came out and he tangled with another car in turn one. He got the car back to the work area and the crew jumped all over it and sent him out before racing resumed. Restarting in 21st, he moved forward two spots before the race concluded. At that last race in Ventura, Dunkel's crew was comprised of the current USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series point leader Brody Roa, Roa's crew chief Zac Bozanich and the rest of the #17R helpers.

  Fourth of July wins at Placerville Speedway go to Tony Gomes, Dan Jinkerson and Thomas Arbogast

  Placerville, CA…Modesto, California's Tony Gomes dominated the 25-lap Thompson's Winged Sprint Car feature, en route to his third victory of the season at Placerville Speedway on Independence Day. Sharing victory lane on Tuesday were Dan Jinkerson in the Anrak Ltd. Late Model feature and Auburn's Thomas Arbogast with the Red Hawk Casino Pure Stocks. The Thompson's Family of Dealerships Winged 360 Sprint Car finale came to the line with Gomes and Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr. on the front row. A multi car pileup in turn four brought out the red flag on the initial attempt. All drivers were luckily okay and after cleaning up the incident things got back underway with Myers leading the opening circuit before Gomes slipped to his inside to take the point on lap two. Gomes would dominate the main event from that point on as cars raced for position behind him. Some timely caution flags kept drivers away from lapped traffic and in the clean air, nobody had anything for the fast-moving C&M Motorsports/ Lund Construction No. 7c machine. Current Placerville point leader Michael Faccinto jumped into second on lap seven and held strong to cross the stripe in the runner up position, followed by eighth starting Dylan Bloomfield, who made some nice moves to complete the podium. Penngrove's Chase Johnson occupied second at times behind Gomes and came home in fourth, with Aromas racer Justin Sanders fifth. It was an exceptionally strong rebound for Sanders, who was involved in the lap one pileup and had to visit the work area. The remainder of the top-10 was filled out by Colby Johnson, Luke Hayes, Jimmy Trulli, Shane Hopkins and Ashlyn Rodriguez. Both Trulli and Hopkins came back from the opening lap incident as well to record solid finishes. Heat race wins went to Justin Sanders, Tony Gomes and Colby Johnson. Sanders began the night by earning the ADCO Driveline Fast Time Award with a lap of 10.832 around the quarter mile. A total of 20 cars competed on the 4th of July. Winged Sprint Car results: 1. 7C-Tony Gomes[1]; 2. X1-Michael Faccinto[4]; 3. 83V-Dylan Bloomfield[8]; 4. 28-Chase Johnson[3]; 5. 4SA-Justin Sanders[6]; 6. 38-Colby Johnson[5]; 7. 9L-Luke Hayes[10]; 8. 33T-Jimmy Trulli[14]; 9. 21-Shane Hopkins[15]; 10. 87-Ashlyn Rodriguez[7]; 11. 94-Greg Decaires V[9]; 12. 79-Mark Hanson[20]; 13. 98-Chris Masters[19]; 14. 45-Jake Morgan[12]; 15. 25-Justin Johnson[18]; 16. 46JR-Joel Myers Jr[2]; 17. 83T-Tanner Carrick[16]; 18. 25S-Seth Standley[17]; 19. 83SA-Isaiah Vasquez[11]; 20. 34-Justin Henry[13] Diamond Springs' Dan Jinkerson started from the front row in the Anrak Corporation Ltd. Late Model feature and raced to his 13th career victory in the division on Tuesday. It didn't come easy for him however, as Rod Oliver and others showed tremendous speed on this night. Track conditions lent well to drivers in the 20-lap contest and the ground pounders put on some of the most entertaining racing of the night. Lincoln's Dan Brown Jr. found the high side to his liking and challenged Jinkerson early on. Rod Oliver ran the bottom side to perfection though and assumed the runner up spot with seven laps complete. Oliver hounded the rear of Jinkerson's Lightfoot Automotive mount and gave the multi-time track champion everything he could handle. He took a few peeks to the inside, but Jinkerson held strong and fended him off to record the win. Oliver, Matt Micheli, Ray Trimble and Brown rounded out the top-five. Late Model results: 1. 23-Dan Jinkerson[2]; 2. 57-Rod Oliver[3]; 3. 96M-Matt Micheli[4]; 4. 37-Ray Trimble[5]; 5. 15-Dan Brown Jr[1]; 6. 71-Wayne Trimble[8]; 7. 115-Chris Mcginnis[9]; 8. 23J-Tyler Lightfoot[6]; 9. 54-Matt Davis[7] Auburn competitor Thomas Arbogast has made a triumphant return to the wheel this season and picked off his second Red Haw Casino Pure Stock win of the year on Tuesday. Starting from the pole he battled Ken Bernstein during the initial stages but then had his way with things out front. Arbogast persevered through an inordinate amount of caution flags, which made for several key restarts. Four-time Placerville Speedway titlist Nick Baldwin executed a methodical charge forward to finish second over Bernstein, Mike Lightfoot and Bill O'Neil rounding out the top-five. The top-10 was completed by Mel Byers, Chris D'angelo, Jonny Walsh, Kevin Jinkerson and Russ Murphy. Pure Stock results: 1. 86-Thomas Arbogast[1]; 2. 17-Nick Baldwin[10]; 3. 43-Kenny Bernstein[2]; 4. 52-Mike Lightfoot[4]; 5. 23-Bill O'Neal[8]; 6. 93-Mel Byers[11]; 7. 1-Chris D'angelo[9]; 8. 4-Jonny Walsh[12]; 9. 30-Kevin Jinkerson[6]; 10. 74-Russell Murphy[7]; 11. 47-Michael Murphy[3]; 12. 54-Vigna Anthony[5]; 13. 55-Micky Dangelo[14]; 14. 77T-Jason Armstrong[15]; 15. 27-William Upton[16] Placerville Speedway is right back in action this Saturday July 8th with Burgers & Brew Night presented by Kings Meats and Solid Ground Brewing.

  GRANT SEXTON SNARES FIRST USAC/CRA TOP FIVE FINISH AT THE BAKERSFIELD SPEEDWAY

  (Lakeside, CA, June 29, 2023) Teenage sensation Grant Sexton turned in another stellar performance and scored the first top-five USAC/CRA main event finish of his career last Saturday night at the Bakersfield Speedway. Not only was it his first top-five finish, but he also jumped another spot higher in the series standings and is ranked seventh going into the next race at Perris Auto Speedway on July 15th. 43E84AEE-D59D-44BD-8D12-DCB7299947A2_1_201_a.jpg Grant Sexton notched his first ever top 5 USAC/CRA finish at Bakersfield. P1 Racing Images photo. Sexton had finished out of the top 10 in three of his last four races entering Saturday's show. The Lakeside, California racer, who will turn 19 on July 16th, arrived at Bakersfield determined to stem the recent trend. He had performed well at the track located 111 miles north of Los Angeles in years gone by. Only 15 months earlier, he scored the win in one of the best main events in California Lightning Sprint Car Series history on the Kern County track. The personable young driver started the 30-lap main event on the outside of row 4 in the 8th position. Needless to say, he had a bunch of very fast cars right in front of him. Sexton used some early moves and began making progress forward. He was seventh at the end of the first circuit and had moved up another spot on lap two. By the end of the third go around on "The West's Fastest 1/3 Mile High Banked Clay Oval" he was in the fifth spot. While Sexton was up to fifth on lap five, he was in the midst of a crowd-pleasing multi-car battle that see-sawed back and forth. The fight for position saw him get passed and repass the same drivers in the heat of the action. For a lap seven restart, the 2021 POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprint Car Series champion was seventh. He would slip back as far as eighth and then move forward. The constant action, back-and-forth passing, and the ability to throw safe slide jobs showed the ever-growing confidence the teen has racing against drivers he would not have passed four months ago. For the last restart with 11 laps to go, he was sixth. However, he was not done. Going into turn three on the 26th lap, he shot to the inside and passed the fifth-place driver. Over the final three laps, he fended off the advances of the same driver and held onto the spot. Just like that, in only his 11th USAC/CRA main event start, he secured his first series top-five finish. Before a big crowd watching the only USAC/CRA race at the track this year, Sexton turned in the eighth-best time in qualifying at 13.315. In his 10-lap heat race, he started and finished in the fifth spot. In addition to moving up to seventh in points, Sexton continued to pad his advantage in the Rookie of the Year chase. He will enter the June 15th Perris race 272 points ahead of his closest pursuer. Sexton Gatlin Racing was off this week but will be back in action on Saturday, July 8th.

  BRODY ROA GETS 7TH WIN OF 2023 - NOW TIED FOR FOURTH OVERALL IN USAC/CRA

  (Cypress, CA, June 26, 2023) Brody Roa made his 12th start of the year in the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series a successful one when he scored his seventh win of the season last Saturday night at Scott Schweitzer's Bakersfield Speedway. In addition to it being his seventh triumph of 2023, it was his 20th-lifetime victory in USAC/CRA competition. That ties him for fourth on the series' all-time win list. As well as Roa, his Inland Rigging teammate Tommy Dunkel made his third USAC/CRA start and finished 14th. Besides the Inland Rigging duo, 18 other USAC/CRA teams showed up for the race on the track billed as "The West's Fastest 1/3 Mile High Banked Clay Oval." Garden Grove, California resident Roa ended up third fastest of the 20 cars in qualifying with a sizzling lap of 13.200. Teammate Dunkel, who calls Menifee, California home, toured the track in 13.625. That was good enough for 16th in the tight-packed time trial session. Heat races were up next for the #17A and the #17R. Dunkel, who along with his wife Christy owns the Inland Rigging team, was up in the first heat race on the pleasant Kern County night. Despite being new to the series and relatively new to sprint car racing, series officials showed trust in Dunkel by allowing him to start on the pole for the 10-lap race. He rewarded their faith by leading the first two laps and running in the top five the first half of the race. In the end, he ended up sixth after a late stop with another car. Due to his quick qualifying time, Roa started last in the third heat race. The 10-lapper proved to be tough but "The Pride of Garden Grove," who came into the night with a 100-point lead in the series championship standings, methodically worked his way through the pack. He snatched the lead on lap nine and waltzed away for his series-leading fifth heat race win of the 2023 campaign. All that remained on the night was the 30-lap main event. Roa, who won the previous race, the "Bubby Jones/Ray Scheetz Memorial" at Perris Auto Speedway a week earlier, began the main in fourth. Dunkel, who was at the Bakersfield Speedway for the first time, started 16th in the 20-car field. Roa quickly advanced forward and was second by the end of the first circuit. A slider in turn three on the second lap and he was into the lead. Once out front, Roa was never headed the remainder of the way, but it was not as easy as that sounds. Through lap 19, he was closely followed by the runner-up car. One slip up, and the race could have gone the other way. However, a pair of red flags due to cars flipping slowed the action on lap 19. On the second restart, the 2019 USAC Southwest Sprint Car champion pulled away and notched his seventh win of the year by a half straightaway. Dunkel turned in 30 strong, valuable laps on the slick track. When the checkered ended the race, he had moved forward two spots from where he started and finished 14th. "This feels good," the happy winner told the crowd after the race. "I can't tell you the amount of times we have been in a pileup on lap one (at Bakersfield) and have had to come from the back to finish second. I think it has been four times that we have done that. We have been so close to winning here and been so good here, to finally get it done is a relief. I am super pumped. Thanks to everybody in this deal. My family, Tom, and Christy (car owners Tom and Christy Dunkel). They are family really now. Biker Bruce, Burris, Molecule, Shaver, Caltrol, my wife's company ALR Virtual Services, Wilwood Disc Brakes, CSI Shocks. Everybody on this deal. It is a group effort and it is paying off this year." "We are just making the right calls," Roa continued when announcer John Candelaria asked him what the secret to this year's success is. "We are having fun. We spent years frustrated and throwing stuff at it. We are just trying to stay calm and have fun doing this deal. It is paying off. We are bringing the same piece to the track each week and not trying to re-engineer it. I am pretty good at that - trying things I shouldn't." After an extremely busy first six months of the year, Roa and Dunkel have the next to weekends off. The cars will be stripped down and readied for the next race at Perris Auto Speedway on July 15th. Roa already has one win on the famous track this year. For Dunkel, it will be his initial USAC/CRA start on a track larger than 1/3 of a mile. Fans can pick up a 2023 Inland Riggings Racing Team shirt from the crew after the races or online at The brand new Roa/Dunkel Inland Rigging team merchandise, including shirts, is now available. You can see the shirt design in the photo below. The shirts will be available in the pits or online at the following link https://bit.ly/3IDLNEZ.

  EDDIE TAFOYA'S JUNE RACING RECAP

  (Chino, CA, June 25, 2023) Eddie Tafoya Jr. continued his ambitious 2023 racing schedule when he returned to the Midwest for a series of races in the month of June. As luck would have it and has been the case this year, rain intervened on two of the races. However, he still managed to mash the throttle pedal down at three different tracks before returning home to Southern California. June 2 & 3 Knoxville Raceway, Knoxville, Iowa Tafoya, 25, began his journey at "The Sprint Car Capital of the World," Iowa's Knoxville Raceway. His first chance on the big half mile with the USAC National Sprint Cars was slated for Friday, June 2nd. However, a heavy Midwest rainstorm blew through the area and wiped that race off the calendar and delayed his debut in the "Hawkeye State" by 24 hours. When Tafoya, who lives in Chino Hills, California, and the other 31 drivers arrived back at the track on Saturday, June 3rd, things had dried out and the facility was race ready. Tafoya's first competitive lap on the track that sits within the shadows of the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame was a 21.668 in qualifying. He followed that up by starting seventh and finishing sixth in his eight-lap heat race. Tafoya started on the outside of row five in the 12-lap B Main. He ran 14th early on and raced into 12th late in the race. June 7 Gas City I-69 Speedway, Gas City, Indiana After Knoxville, the Specialty Fasteners hauler headed to more familiar grounds in Indiana. The first stop was the Gas City I-69 Speedway. Run in conjunction with Indiana Midget Week, it was Tafoya's first appearance at the track located near the Mississinewa River since July of 2021. He started and finished eighth in his heat race. The 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year became embroiled in a crowd-pleasing four-car battle for the fourth spot and had moved as high as sixth. In the end, he did not get the transfer and he had to head to the B main. Starting ninth in the B, Tafoya had to move up to second place to secure one of the transfers. Using the high side in the second half of the 12-lapper he began passing cars and moving toward the front. Unfortunately, the impressive run was cut short when the laps ran out and he ended up fifth. June 10 Circle City Raceway, Indianapolis, Indiana Tafoya's best night on his trip came on June 10th in the Midwest Sprint Car Series event at the Circle City Raceway in Indianapolis. One of 29 cars on hand, in his heat the confident Californian gave the fans a sneak preview of what they would see in the main event. Starting seventh, he moved forward three spots to finish fourth and captured one of the coveted starting spots in the main without having to go through the B. For the 25-lapper, Tafoya and the #51T started 11th. From there he put on a show. He moved forward nine spots to second. However, lapped cars and a late race yellow flag bit him and he ended up finishing fourth on a track he had never raced on before. Even though the late race chaos cost him two spots, his 11th to fourth run still had him passing the most cars of any driver in the 21-car field. That made him the race "Hard Charger." June 11 Kokomo Speedway, Kokomo, Indiana Unfortunately, the trip to the Midwest ended up just the way it started for Tafoya when the Sunday, June 11th show at the popular Kokomo Speedway was canceled due to rain. Indiana Sprint Week The next action on Tafoya's schedule is the grueling Indiana Sprint week with the USAC National Sprint Cars. Starting on July 21st at Gas City Speedway, he will contest eight races, on eight different tracks in a total of nine nights. The only evening off will come smack dab in the middle of the mini-series. In addition to Gas City, other races on the laborious tour will be at Kokomo, Lawrenceburg, Circle City, Terre Haute, Lincoln Park, Bloomington, and Tri-State. The Specialty Fasteners #51T team is always exploring corporate partnership opportunities. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the hard-working sprint car squad, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at mailto:teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Tafoya's great-looking shirts and hoodies are available online at www.specialty-fasteners.com. Tafoya has a great YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51.

  INLAND RIGGING DRIVERS ROA AND DUNKEL HEADED FOR BAKERSFIELD USAC/CRA RACE

  (Cypress, CA, June 23, 2023) The USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series returns to action this Saturday, June 24th, at "The West's Fastest 1/3 Mile High Banked Clay Oval," the Bakersfield Speedway. Amongst the field will be Inland Rigging drivers Brody Roa of Garden Grove, California, and Tommy Dunkel of Menifee. Roa comes into the race leading the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series point standings. Dunkel will be making his third-ever series start and his first at Bakersfield. Last Saturday night Dunkel made the trek to the Ventura Raceway for the USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series Wagsdash. The race came on the same track that he dominated on to win his first-ever sprint car race on April 8th. His initial USAC West Coast Series race at the track came on May 13th when he finished 11th after getting clobbered in the waning laps. Driving his spotless Inland Rigging #17A last Saturday, Dunkel turned in a lap of 13.284 in qualifying. That was good enough for 23rd in the 31-car field. With a good size crowd looking on, Dunkel started on the inside of the back row in ninth for his 10-lap heat. He steered forward two spots before the checkered flag ended the race. However, that was three spots out of a transfer position. Thus he had to go to the B main for one last crack at qualifying for the A. "I got off to a little bit of a slow start," Dunkel stated. "Kind of the driver and crew getting used to each other. You know, mesh and kind of see what each other likes. I started in the ninth spot and got up to seventh in the heat race. Ventura is always kind of tricky to pass on. So, I had my work cut out for me to get up to the fourth position. Seventh is where I kind of got stuck in at." In the 12-lap B main, the top 10 cars would earn their tickets into the A-main. Dunkel was starting 11th. That meant he only had to pass one car but he did much more than that. He ended up passing five and finished sixth." The deck was stacked against Dunkel in the 30-lap A main as he started on the inside of the back row. That meant there was only one way to go. That was forward and that is just what he did. "I started 21st, so inside the last row," Dunkel said about the main. "I don't know what lap it was. Maybe lap 12 or somewhere in there. I had worked my way all the way up to 11. The thing was just a rail and it was just on the move. I thought, you know I'm just going to go as far forward as I can." Dunkel had his eye on capturing the race's "Hard Charger" award. He had the numbers to do it at that time as he had passed the most cars in the field. Unfortunately, that goal was torn away after a tangle in turn one. "I was working on 10th and the caution came out," he lamented. "I was going into one and had the car set to rip the top. My momentum was there. When the caution came out, the car in front of me was able to get on the binders a whole lot faster than me. I jumped the right rear, kind of did a pirouette and backed into the fence. I went to the work area and Zac (Bozanich), Brett (Roa), and the guys went to town and thrashed on it. They got me back to where I could at least push back off." While it was fortunate that the crew got the car back on the track, it was not 100% as they had a limited amount of time to get things done. Dunkel restarted at the back and ended up moving forward to 19th before the checkered flag ended the race. "The night went pretty good," Dunkel said afterward. "It was the first night having the Roa crew dedicated to just working with me versus sharing with Brody on the nights we have raced together. They hold back no punches. That is really what I like. It was, 'The car is dialed. You need to get up on the wheel and drive this thing.' I learned a lot. Both driving-wise and setup-wise. So much useful information all night long. I take it as a win. 18th or 19th, whatever it was, that kind of sucks. Besides that, it was a good night all night long." Brody Roa, aka "The Pride of Garden Grove," returns to action for the first time since winning his sixth main in 11 USAC/CRA starts this year two weeks ago at Perris. He enters this week's race with a 100-point lead over the second-place driver in the championship standings. In addition, he has 19 lifetime USAC/CRA wins. A victory on Saturday would tie him for fourth on the overall list. Dating back to 2017, Roa has only contested four 410 races at Bakersfield. In 2017, he finished second in the 30-lap main event. In 2019, he got "monster trucked" in the feature and placed 19th. Two years later in 2021, he ended up third in the USAC/CRA 30-lap main. In March of 2022, he made his first-ever appearance with the World of Outlaws and placed eighth in the B main at Bakersfield, narrowly missing a transfer to the A main. The Bakersfield Speedway is located at 5001 North Chester Ext. Ave., Bakersfield (93308). Spectator gates will open at 4:00 p.m. with racing at 6:00 on Saturday. Adult tickets are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over and military with a proper id get in for $25.00. Kids 6-12 are $15.00 and children 5 and under are free. Parking is free. The track website is http://www.bakersfieldspeedway.com/ and the office phone number is (661) 393-3373. As always, Roa would be more than happy to jump in a race car on his weekends off from the #17R. His entire schedule is printed below.

  GRANT SEXTON CONTINUES HIS PURSUIT OF THE USAC/CRA ROOKIE OF THE YEAR AWARD SATURDAY AT BAKERSFIELD

  (Lakeside, CA, June 23, 2023) Grant Sexton will attempt to bounce back from a disappointing finish in last week's USAC West Coast Series main event at the Ventura Raceway when the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series heads to Kern County for the Richie McGowan Memorial this Saturday at the Bakersfield Speedway. The teen will enter Saturday's race eighth in the USAC/CRA standings and with a commanding lead in the Rookie of the Year points race. Last week, things started off bright enough for the Lakeside, California driver at the reincarnation of the Wagsdash. Competing on the same Ventura oval where he won his first-ever full-size sprint car race in April of 2022, the friendly racer was the 10th fastest qualifier of the 31 drivers on hand with a time of 12.734. In his 10-lap heat race, he started on the inside of the second row. Initially, he slipped back to fifth and that could have ended up being a major problem. Coming off turn four early in the race, cars in front of the affable teen tangled. They seemingly left him nowhere to go. However, his quick reflexes kept him going forward after just minor contact. For the restart of the heat, Sexton was in fourth. He quickly moved forward and latched onto the third-place spot in his black #22 with brilliant orange trim. He managed to stay there through the end. The previous week in the USAC/CRA race at Perris Auto Speedway, Sexton started on the pole for the main. In Saturday's 30-lapper at Ventura, he began in the exact same spot. After Kris Kornder started the race with his green flag, Sexton was third at the end of the opening go-around. A couple of laps later he was fourth and still in the hunt. However, that hunt ended abruptly in turn one on lap five with him sitting by the turn one crash wall with a torn-up frame rail on his Ellis Chassis. His promising night ended with a 21st-place finish. Thus far in 2023, Sexton has a perfect attendance record through the first 11 USAC/CRA races. He has placed in the top 10 three times with a ninth at Perris Auto Speedway, a seventh at Kings Speedway in Hanford, and a season-best sixth-place finish at Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway. His prowess sees him residing in eighth place in the series championship standings and it has allowed him to build a bulging 210-point advantage in the Rookie of the Year chase. Saturday will be Sexton's first time competing at Bakersfield in a 410 sprint car. However, he is no stranger to the track known as "The West's Fastest 1/3 Mile High Banked Clay Oval." In fact, one of the biggest wins of his young career came on the Kern County oval on March 25th, 2022. Competing in the California Lightning Sprint Car Series in a show that was headlined by the World of Outlaws, Sexton thrilled the crowd with a brave, banging-the-boards performance that saw him only lead the last five feet in a photo finish. The victory, which was seen worldwide on the World of Outlaws DirtVision TV, saw Sexton receive a standing ovation from the capacity crowd. Afterward, his memorable victory speech had the enthusiastic crowd roaring again. Fans who want to see the young star in action on the famous "Okie Bowl" on Saturday can find the track at 5001 North Chester Ext. Ave., Bakersfield (93308). Spectator gates will open at 4:00 p.m. with racing at 6:00. Adult tickets are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over and military with a proper id get in for $25.00.

  AFTER PLACING SECOND IN CLS RACE AT VENTURA, JEFF DYER HEADS TO BAKERSFIELD FOR USAC/CRA RACE

  (Yucca Valley, CA, June 22, 2023) After a second-place finish in the California Lightning Sprint Car Series/POWRi Southwest Lightning Sprint Cars "Best of the West" race last weekend at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway, Jeff Dyer will trade in his lightning sprint for his 410 USAC/CRA Sprint Car for Saturday's race at the Bakersfield Speedway. It will be Dyer's 4th USAC race of 2023. Last Saturday, with a good crowd looking on at the Wagsdash, Dyer was joined by his 16-year-old son Seth at the track located on the beach in Ventura. Of the 13 cars on hand for the race on the 1/5 mile oval, Jeff, a Highway Patrol Officer when he is away from the track, turned in the fifth fastest time at 13.071 in qualifying. Seth, a high school student when he is not racing, turned in the seventh-best lap at 13.266. The father and son duo, one of two in the race, was matched against each other in the first eight-lap heat. Seth was on the pole and Jeff was alongside on the outside of the front row. Seth led the race until his dad stole the top spot from him in turn two on the second lap. From that point on, Jeff held on to win by a comfortable margin. It was his series-leading third heat race win of the year. Seth placed fourth. For the 25-lap main, Jeff was on the inside of the second row. Seth was two rows behind in seventh. Jeff was third at the start and stayed there until lap five when he moved up one spot to second. By that time, the leader was gone and Jeff was forced to settle for a second-place finish in the race that went green to checkers with no interruption. After an early race tangle, Seth managed to bring his #4JR home in eighth. "It wasn't a terrible track, but track position (on the start) was really the key there," Dyer said. "With him (5-time series champion Bobby Michnowicz) starting on the front row, it was hard. I went up top a couple times and actually made it work for a little while but then it kind of went away. We were too even. Without any cautions, it was going to be practically impossible to catch him. If we would have had a caution it may have been a different story but who knows? His car is just as good as mine." In nine lightning starts this year, Jeff has two wins, four top-five finishes and he has finished in the top 10 six times. Likewise, Seth has also appeared in nine lightning races this year. He has one top-five and six top-10s. Jeff maintained his third-place position in both the CLS series and the "Best of the West."
