USCS - United Sprint Car Series Dirt Track Racing News
- 2026 USCS Sprint Car Schedule released
The United Sprint Car Series has released its 2026 and 30th anniversary season Sprint Car racing schedule.
- Turkey Night Grand Prix Next for Brent and Grant Sexton
Lakeside, CA — November 5, 2025 — Southern California sprint car veterans Brent and Grant Sexton will return to action on Thanksgiving weekend for one of the sport's crown jewels—the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway. The historic holiday classic will mark the father-and-son duo's first sprint car outing since tackling the Western World Championships at Central Arizona Raceway in late October. The debut trip to the Arizona oval for Sexton Gatlin Racing was anything but easy. Grant battled a stubborn fuel system that refused to cooperate, leaving patriarch Brent to carry the team's banner. A three-time California Lightning Sprint Car Series champion, Brent's night was cut short in his heat race by a faulty mag box on Friday, sidelining the bright #44 early. Returning Saturday, determined to turn things around, Brent's luck refused to change. A broken rear brake mount in his qualifier left him with only front brakes for the C-Main, but the veteran's steady hands kept him out of trouble long enough to transfer into the B-Main. Unfortunately, a sheared U-joint ended the night and the team's Arizona adventure prematurely. While the weekend proved frustrating for the Sextons, Sexton Gatlin Racing's rising rookie, Braydin Collie, gave the team something to smile about at the Ventura Raceway. The talented teen turned in the eighth-fastest qualifying time, won his heat race, and finished seventh in the 25-lap main event. Heading into the California Lightning Sprint Car Series finale at Bakersfield on November 25th, the El Cajon racer sits sixth in Motor City Buick/GMC championship points—just one point out of fifth—and second in Rookie of the Year standings. Though it is unlikely without a lot of good fortune, Collie remains mathematically alive in the Rookie of the Year chase. Before that finale in Bakersfield, he'll trade dirt for desert when he competes in Mexico's legendary Baja 1000 in a trophy truck next week. For more updates, follow Sexton Gatlin Racing on social media and stay tuned for results throughout the 2025 season. Sexton Gatlin Racing would like to thank the following companies for making the 2024 season possible. East County Electric Works, Keys Brothers, Geoff Dale, BR Motorsports, Maxima Oil, Automated Interiors, Valley Lubricant Services, Sexton Fire Protection, BK Wings, and Troy Dirt. If you or your company are interested in becoming a marketing partner with Sexton Gatlin Racing in 2025, please call (619) 454-6945 or E-mail mailto:sextonfire@cox.net or mailto:sextonfire@gmail.com.

- Brody Roa Gears Up for His 2025 Season Finale This Saturday at Perris Auto Speedway!
Cypress, CA - November 5, 2025 — One of Southern California's most popular open-wheel racers, Brody Roa, will wrap up his impressive 2025 campaign this Saturday night, November 8th, when Heimark Distributors Anheuser Busch presents the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars at Perris Auto Speedway. The lightning-fast half-mile clay oval will open its spectator gates at 5:00 p.m., with racing starting earlier than usual at 6:30. Nineteen other cars were on hand for the most recent high-intensity 410 sprint car battle at the track, located just over an hour east of Los Angeles. Roa, 34, qualified fifth-fastest for the second consecutive race, clocking a 16.687-second lap—his quickest qualifying effort in nine Perris appearances this season. Starting on the outside of row two in a stacked 10-car, 10-lap heat race, the friendly Garden Grove, California, racer steered his bright green #91R to a strong second-place finish, earning a spot among the first three rows for the 30-lap main event. When the field lined up for the finale, Roa—winner of the previous race at the track two weeks earlier—started on the inside of the front row. He held third for most of the race before crossing the line fifth at the finish. For the 2023 USAC/CRA Series Champion, it marked his 10th top-10 finish in 13 starts this year. In his last six outings, Roa hasn't finished worse than eighth, tallying four top-fives highlighted by his October 18th victory at Perris. Roa is currently exploring the possibility of a return to January's Chili Bowl Midget Nationals in Tulsa, Oklahoma for the first time since 2022. Stay tuned for updates. Fans can relive the Perris triumph courtesy of FourVideos on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzlw0C-rYbk&t=1515s You can listen to an interview Roa did when he joined Dave Stall's Racer Radio Show for an interview the day after the win: http://www.perrisautospeedway.com/radio25/RACERRADIO251026.mp3 (Roa's segment begins around the 25-minute mark).

- After Qualifying for Both Western World Championship Main Events, Eddie Tafoya Jr. Returns to Perris This Saturday
Chino Hills, CA — October 30, 2025 — Eddie Tafoya Jr. took on the best traditional sprint car drivers in the world last weekend when he battled the Amsoil USAC National Sprint Cars and the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars in the prestigious Western World Championships at Central Arizona Raceway. Tafoya was one of only three USAC/CRA drivers to qualify directly into both main events without needing to run a C main, B main, or take a provisional spot. A strong field of 46 cars turned out for two nights of intense 410 sprint car action. Tafoya, who raced at the same track south of Phoenix in Casa Grande earlier this year with USAC/CRA, timed in 25th fastest on night one. That put him in the loaded fifth and final heat race, where only the top four transferred directly to the main. The 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year rose to the occasion, finishing fourth and locking himself straight into the 30-lap feature, avoiding the chaos of the lower mains. In the main event, the Chino Hills, California racer started 22nd and came home 23rd. On night two, Tafoya, 28, found himself in the second qualifier—an eight-lap, 13-car showdown where only the top five would advance directly to the A main. For the second straight night, he answered the challenge, finishing fourth and once again skipping the preliminary races. "It was definitely a weight off my shoulders, and it was a lot less work going straight into the mains from the heat races," the veteran racer said. "It was good to skip the B and the C at this race. We had a really good baseline setup. It's a great track that kind of suits my style. It's kind of wide open. You've just got to hit your marks and stay in the good dirt." The finale featured one of the toughest fields of 2025. Starting on the inside of row eight (15th), Tafoya advanced two positions to finish a solid 13th against the national stars. "Racing with them makes me a better driver," Tafoya added about competing against the national series racers. "Racing against those guys is the benchmark and the speed we try to be all the time. It just seems like whenever they come out here, we try to step it up—definitely find some speed and eliminate our mistakes. It helps me be a better driver." This Saturday, the second-generation driver looks to carry his Arizona momentum into Perris Auto Speedway. The event will mark his ninth appearance of the season at his home track, where he hopes to better his season-best fourth-place finish from September 9th. This Saturday, Perris Event Info: • Date: Saturday, November 1, 2025 • Location: Perris Auto Speedway, 18700 Lake Perris Drive, Perris, CA • Times: Spectator gates open at 5:00 p.m., racing at 6:30 p.m. • Tickets: Ages 13+ - $35.00 | Seniors (65+) - $30.00 | Kids 6-12 - $10.00 | Children 5 & under - Free • Parking: $20.00 (Fairgrounds parking is card only) • Tickets: Advance tickets at tix.com | Plenty of walk-up tickets available • Track Info: perrisautospeedway.com | 951-940-0134 Tafoya can be followed on Instagram at @eddietafoya51. The Tafoya Racing team would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, BR Motorsports, King Racing Products, Gasper Transportation, CMI Precision Machining, Owen's Insurance Services, Keen Concrete, DRC Chassis, and Rider Racing Engines for their continued support of the 2025 season.

- Roa Returns to Perris After First Win of the Season
Cypress, CA - October 29, 2025 — This Saturday night, star USAC/CRA Sprint Car driver Brody Roa returns to Perris Auto Speedway riding high after scoring his first victory of the year! The action-packed show presented by Heimark Distributors Anheuser/Busch will see spectator gates open at 5:00 p.m., with racing starting 30 minutes earlier than usual at 6:30. The 34-year-old Garden Grove, California, racing veteran notched his long-awaited first win of 2025 two weeks ago, outdistancing the field on the legendary Southern California half-mile clay oval. The triumph marked his 22nd career USAC/CRA victory, placing him fourth all-time since the series' inception in 2004 — and the winningest active driver in the division today. Saturday's event will be Roa's 13th start of the season, with eight of the previous 12 coming at Perris. Impressively, he's finished outside the top eight only once — a 17th-place result after being sidelined in a crash. His Perris résumé includes four top-five finishes, highlighted by a third on September 27th and that thrilling win on October 18th. His average main-event finish at the track is a strong 6.5, and an even better 5.0 if you remove the DNF. "First off, I have to thank my dad and Uncle B," an emotional Roa told fans after his long-awaited victory. "I have felt like a turd all day. Every time I came off the track, I went into the trailer and went to sleep. Ricky (leader Ricky Lewis, who was taken out by a crash) had us covered, but you have to be there at the end — and we did it. It's pretty cool just to be up there with those guys and pick one off." After this Saturday's show, Roa and his brilliant green #91R team will be back in action one week later when USAC/CRA wraps up its 2025 season at Perris on November 8th. Saturday's tickets are $35.00 for fans age 13 and up. For seniors 65 and over, it is $30.00. Kids 6 - 12 get in for $10.00, and children 5 and under are free. Parking on the fairgrounds is $20.00 (parking payment is by card only). Advance tickets are available at tix.com, and walk-up tickets will be available at the gate. Perris Auto Speedway is located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds, 18700 Lake Perris Drive, Perris, California. The track website is www.perrisautospeedway.com and the office phone number is (951) 940-0134. On-site camping is available for $25 per night beginning at noon on Fridays. Roa would like to thank his 2025 sponsors, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Burris Racing, ALR Virtual Services, Caltrol, Molecule, and Wilwood Disc Brakes.

- Sexton Gatlin Racing Hits the Road in Arizona and California This Week
Lakeside, CA — October 23, 2025 — It's a busy weekend ahead for the Lakeside, California-based Sexton Gatlin Racing team as they split up for action in two states. On Friday and Saturday, October 24th and 25th, veteran driver Brent Sexton and his 21-year-old son Grant will take on some of the nation's best in the prestigious Western World Championship at Central Arizona Speedway. At the same time, rising star Braydin Collie will represent the team Saturday night with the California Lightning Sprint Car Series at Ventura Raceway. Now eight months into a long and competitive 2025 campaign, Sexton Gatlin Racing's drivers have combined for 57 starts across 20 different racetracks in five states. The closest to home came at San Diego County's Barona Speedway, just minutes from their Lakeside shop. The farthest? Minnesota's Buffalo River Speedway, a whopping 2,000 miles from home base. For Brent, his best finish of the season came on September 20th when he grabbed a podium — third place — in the Ultimate Sprint Car Series main event at Ventura Raceway. Grant's standout run of the year, a fifth, came at Norman County Raceway in Ada, Minnesota, during the Minkota Lightning Nationals. Collie, the El Cajon teenager in his first full season, has also made his mark, earning a pair of third-place finishes — one at Bakersfield Speedway on June 7th and another at Minnesota's Buffalo River Speedway two months later. A three-time lightning sprint car series champion, Brent and his son Grant — the 2023 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year — opted for a "freelance" schedule in 2025, choosing to race where and when they want rather than chase points. This weekend marks their first-ever appearance at Central Arizona Speedway in Casa Grande, 50 miles south of Phoenix — and they couldn't have picked a tougher debut. The Western World attracts the top talent from both the USAC National and CRA Sprint Car Series, promising fierce competition from green to checkered. Meanwhile, Collie has turned heads in his rookie campaign with the California Lightning Sprint Car Series.

- Joel Myers Jr. claims Trophy Cup title/ Tanner Holmes wins $10,000 main event
Tulare, CA…Joel Myers Jr. charged from 24th to eighth in the main event on Saturday night at Tulare Thunderbowl Raceway, securing the $30,000 Abreu Vineyards Trophy Cup benefiting the Rayce Rudeen Foundation championship for the first time in his career. While Myers captured the title Jacksonville, Oregon's Tanner Holmes picked up a thrilling late race win during the 50 lap Trophy Cup finale aboard the Tarlton & Son No. 21 mount. The event featured a dramatic and exciting conclusion on Saturday night with fantastic racing right from the drop of the green flag. Oregon driver Tyler Thompson made a memorable last corner move to take the final transfer spot into the feature. He then proceeded to jump into the lead at the start of the fully inverted A-main. Thompson held command until catching the wall in turn one and getting upside down, putting him out of the race. Washington youngster Levi Hillier then inherited the lead and did an impressive job keeping the talented field at bay for several laps. Tanner Holmes moved into the runner up spot on lap 19 and then gave chase after the leader. With fans on the edge of their seats Holmes blasted to the inside on lap 28 and made it side by side for the top spot. Hillier was caught in a tough spot and contacted the wall getting upside down to bring out a red flag. With Holmes now up front he soon had to deal with a fast-moving Spencer Bayston in the Works Limited W machine. The action was fast and furious around the Thunderbowl Raceway with a close race for the lead, along with the high point drivers moving their way forward from the rear. Bayston hounded Holmes for several laps and finally made the move by on lap 46 to grab the top spot. Holmes stayed close however and made a bold move to grab the lead back coming to the white flag. Bayston attempted to take it back on the final lap, but Holmes fended him to claim his first Trophy Cup main event win. Bayston came home second, followed by 12th starting Justyn Cox, who had a stellar run and was in contention for the Trophy Cup championship at times. Eleventh starting Kaleb Montgomery and 17th starter Dominic Scelzi rounded out the top five. 23rd starter Colby Copeland, Landon Brooks, 24th starter Joel Myers Jr., Austin Wood and 21st starter Ryan Bernal completed the top 10. When all was said and done Joel Myers Jr. wrapped up the Abreu Vineyards Trophy Cup 31 title by just three points over Colby Copeland. Myers piloted the Hayward Motorsports No. 19 to the championship with a strong drive in both his heat race and the main event on Saturday night. Copeland's run was also ultra impressive after visiting the work area early in the race. Scelzi, Cox and Montgomery comprised the remainder of the top five in points. The full points rundown can be viewed at https://www.tularetrophycup.com/standings/ On behalf of Thunderbowl Raceway and 26 Promotions we would like to thank everybody for their gracious support of the Trophy Cup and making it another special event. Stone Chevrolet Buick GMC Thunderbowl Raceway will wrap up the season on Friday November 21st with the USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midgets and USCS Non Winged Sprint Cars. … Results Trophy Cup Finale Thunderbowl Raceway 360 Sprint Cars 51 Entries A Feature 1 50 Laps | 01:02:07.920 1. 21-Tanner Holmes[4]; 2.

- After a Week in Yosemite, Brody Roa Heads Back to Battle at Perris Auto Speedway Saturday
Cypress, CA - October 12, 2025 — After a week of camping and recharging with his wife and daughters in the majestic Yosemite National Park, a rejuvenated Brody Roa is ready to get back behind the wheel when the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series returns to Perris Auto Speedway this Saturday, October 18th. For Roa, it's the first of three races in four weeks at the legendary Riverside County half-mile oval. Saturday's showdown comes just two weeks after another impressive performance from the veteran racer at Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway, where he earned his second In Memory of Jim and Chet Gardner Hard Charger award of the season. The Garden Grove, California star has a special connection with Mohave. It is the site of one of the most thrilling victories of his career, when he stormed from 11th to win a 30-lap USAC/CRA main event in dominating fashion on October 8, 2022. At the same track two weeks ago, Roa qualified 14th out of 28 cars with a lap of 14.549. He then piloted his immaculate #91R sprint car to a convincing victory in the first heat race of the night. It was his fifth USAC/CRA heat race win of 2025. True to form, Roa started deep in the feature but wasted no time charging through the pack. In the 30-lap main event, the 34-year-old methodically picked off eight competitors to claim a hard-earned sixth-place finish. So far this season in his own #91R machine, Roa has started nine main events, finishing in the top ten every time except for one. That came in June at Perris in a race that he had just taken the lead before being sidelined by misfortune. His 2025 stats include three top-five finishes and a season-best third at Perris three weeks ago. At Perris this year, Roa's average main event finish is a solid 7.28. Remove the race he was knocked out of, and that number improves to an impressive 5.66. That fine number offers proof that "The Pride of Garden Grove" is as fast and focused as ever heading into Saturday night's return to the "Southern California Home of USAC/CRA." Spectator gates at Perris open at 5:00 p.m. with racing at 7:00. Tickets for those 13 and over are $35.00. Kids 6-12 get in for $10.00, and children 5 and under are free. The fairgrounds charge $20.00 for parking (payment for parking is by card only). Perris Auto Speedway is located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds at 18700 Lake Perris Drive in the city of Perris. For more information, please visit perrisautospeedway.com or call (951) 940-0134. Roa would like to thank his 2025 sponsors, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Burris Racing, ALR Virtual Services, Caltrol, Molecule, and Wilwood Disc Brakes. If you would like to be a marketing partner with the team in 2025, contact Roa using the information at the top of this release.

- Eddie Tafoya Jr. Returns to Perris After Another Top-10 Finish
Chino Hills, CA — October 8, 2025 — After a brief break from competition, Eddie Tafoya Jr. will return to action when the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series resumes on Saturday, October 18th, at Perris Auto Speedway. The event will mark the 22nd start of the season for the Chino Hills, California, racer and his ninth appearance of the year at the track closest to his home. Tafoya, 28, heads into the night following another solid top-10 performance at the famed half mile on September 27th. On an evening when rain showers surrounded the facility and came within a mile of the oval, the driver of the eye-catching #51T qualified eighth quick with a lap of 17.066 seconds. The 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year went on to finish fifth in his heat race. In the 30-lap main event, he started in the eighth position and maintained his consistent form to finish in the same spot against a tough field of competitors. In eight main event starts at Perris in 2025, the track's 2018 Young Guns Champion has finished inside the top 10 seven times. The only exception came in the season opener on March 1st, when loose belts forced him to slow mid-race and he placed 13th. His best Perris result this year is a fourth-place finish on September 13th in a race streamed live worldwide on Dirt Vision. His average main event finish in 2025 at the long-time Riverside County half mile stands at an impressive 8.125. Tafoya has qualified in seven of eight visits to The PAS this season. The lone miss occurred on August 16th, when a tumble during his first qualifying lap sidelined his effort. His quickest qualifying time came at the March 1st season opener—16.668 seconds—while his best qualifying position, sixth, has been achieved twice (April 5th and June 21st). His overall qualifying average entering the October 18th event is 8.288.
