  Eddie Tafoya Jr. Heads North for Labor Day Weekend Tripleheader

  Chino Hills, CA — August 28, 2025 — For the first time since 2021, Chino Hills, California, sprint car racer Eddie Tafoya Jr. is heading to Northern California for three big races over Labor Day weekend. The now-veteran driver will kick things off this Saturday and Sunday, August 30th and 31st, competing in the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series 14th Annual Louie Vermeil Classic at the legendary Calistoga Speedway. On Labor Day Monday, he'll make the short trip to Petaluma Speedway to battle with the Ultimate Sprint Car Series. The weekend at Calistoga is one of the most highly anticipated events on the West Coast in 2025. Shuttered since 2019, the picturesque half-mile clay oval seemed doomed until the city purchased the fairgrounds property, bringing racing back to the historic venue. For 28-year-old Tafoya, it will be just his second trip to Calistoga. The last time he raced there came on September 1, 2019 — the track's final event before the shutdown — during the season he earned USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year honors. That night he qualified 16th in a 24-car field, started 16th, and finished 15th in the main event. His most recent outing at Petaluma Speedway came in 2021, when he placed 11th in the USAC/CRA main event on the tight 3/8-mile clay oval after returning from a summer racing stint in Indiana. Tafoya heads north after an impressive performance two weeks ago at Perris Auto Speedway. A violent qualifying crash left his car badly damaged, but he and his crew went to work immediately, thrashing in the pits to get the #51T ready for his heat race. Forced to start at the rear of both his heat and the 30-lap main due to not recording a qualifying time, Tafoya charged forward spectacularly. After starting eighth in his eight-lap heat race, he advanced to fourth in the heat. In the main, he started 24th, steered his car impressively through the pack, and avoided the on-track chaos. All told, he passed 16 cars in the feature to finish 8th and capture the In Memory of Jim and Chet Gardner Hard Charger Award. Fans unable to make the trip to Northern California can catch both nights of the Louie Vermeil Classic live on Flo Racing, with coverage beginning at 5:00 p.m. PDT. 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.

  SCCT finale at Stockton Dirt Track shifts to Friday October 31st

  Stockton, CA…Officials with the Stockton Dirt Track have announced a date change for the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour season finale. Originally scheduled for November 8th, the event will now take place on Friday October 31st, creating a double header on Halloween weekend at the San Joaquin County Fairgrounds. The SCCT 360s will crown a champion during the show, while NARC 410 will do the same one night later on November 1st. The overall championship weekend pays tribute as always to the late great Gary Patterson. Known as the "Dancing Phantom from Stockton," the "Preacher," the "Hostile Hippie" or just simply "GP," Gary Patterson was one of the most colorful characters of his time and captured several major wins in his career, including the Gold Cup Race of Champions, the Super Dirt Cup in Washington and the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Ascot Park among others. Patterson lost his life in a Sprint Car crash at Calistoga Speedway on Memorial Day weekend 1983 and an event in his memory has been held every year since. "GP" moved to Stockton, California in 1957 and began his career at the Stockton 99 Speedway. This year marks the 13th season in a row that we've paid honor to Patterson in Stockton. The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour will contest a pair of events before the finale, with Petaluma Speedway's 14th annual Adobe Cup up next on Saturday September 20th. SCCT will also tackle Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare for the Trophy Cup Tune-Up on Saturday October 4th.

  NARC RETURNS TO OCEAN SPEEDWAY FOR 65TH ANNUAL JOHNNY KEY CLASSIC

  (7/28/25 - Andrew Kunas) Watsonville, CA ... The NARC 410 Sprint Car Series will make its final visit of the season to Ocean Speedway on Saturday, August 2nd, when the series takes part in the 65th running of the Johnny Key Classic. The event honors a legendary driver who dominated California racing during the late 1940's and 1950's. It was 1952 where Key reportedly won an astounding 54 races in different classes of cars, and that included a 500-lap race at San Jose Speedway where he won by 18 laps. Key won numerous other races in sprint cars and midgets during his career and won several championships. Key lost his life at just 30 years of age in a midget crash in 1954 in Ohio. The Johnny Key Classic was first run in 1954, shortly after his passing, and was won by Danny Graves. It ran for decades under different lengths and formats, but it was run in San Jose until 1999. After a hiatus, the event was brought back in 2007 at Ocean Speedway as a 360 sprint car event. In 2025, the event became a 410 sprint car event under NARC sanctioning. Saturday's race will be the fourth for NARC at Ocean Speedway and will pay $5,000 to the winner of the 30-lap main event. Nick Rescino leads everyone with six Johnny Key Classic victories over the years. Howard Kaeding was a four-time winner while his legendary son Brent won it twice. Other past winners of the race in its various forms include Al Pombo, Clyde Palmer, Marshall Sargent and Mike Sargent, Burt Foland, Chuck Miller, Ronnie Day, Tommy Tarlton, and more recently the likes of Rico Abreu, Justin Sanders, Buddy Kofoid, Tanner Thorson, Shane Golobic and Dominic Scelzi. WHO TO WATCH Former NARC champion Bud Kaeding of Campbell will be one driver fans will be keeping an eye on. While he didn't win on either night at the Howard Kaeding Classic, Bud did lead laps in the main event on the first night before a treacherous cushion bit him and sent him off the track. Kaeding knows Ocean Speedway well and will look at it as an opportunity to get back in the win column in NARC competition aboard the BK Motorsports No. 29. After mechanical issues in his heat race last Saturday at Santa Maria Speedway, Kaeding earned the Williams Roofing Hard Charger Award in the main event, moving up ten positions. Gauge Garcia of Lemoore won last year's Johnny Key Classic, its last as a 360 event. Garcia is still hunting his first 410 victory with NARC, and it would be ironic if that first win came in the event he previously won in something different. He and the Keller Motorsports No. 2k have dealt with motor issues throughout the season but have still shown speed throughout. D.J. Netto, another former NARC champion, has two wins on the season and took over the points lead Saturday at Santa Maria. The Hanford driver and the Netto Ag No. 88n turned in a fourth place run in Watsonville the other weekend but suffered a mechanical problem and dropped out of the feature in Santa Maria. Despite having the points lead, Netto is wanting to get back in the win column this weekend. Also expected to compete is Harrisburg, Oregon's Tyler Thompson, who leads the NARC Rookie of the Year chase and had a podium finish at Ocean Speedway in May. Fresno drivers Caeden Steele and Mariah Ede are expected to join, along with Oroville's Sean Becker, Dominic Gordon of Clovis, Templeton's Kaleb Montgomery and John Clark from Windsor. Former track champion Kurt Nelson is a frequent participant when NARC visits his home track as well. FAN INFO Ocean Speedway is located on the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds in Watsonville, at 2601 E Lake Ave. Front gates open at 3:30 p.m. with racing scheduled 6:00 p.m. Also joining NARC to race on Saturday will be IMCA modifieds, IMCA sport mods and BCRA lightning sprints. Saturday's event concludes the "Cooler Weather Tour," the recent stretch of races for NARC all scheduled along the California coast and featuring comfortable temperatures for teams and fans. After a break allowing NARC teams to go to the Knoxville Nationals in Iowa and High Limit events happening after that in California, NARC returns to action when it visits the reopening Calistoga Speedway for the Louie Vermeil Classic on Saturday and Sunday, August 30th and 31st. The Northern Auto Racing Club is the premier 410 winged sprint car series in the western United States. Since 1960, the traveling organization has thrilled fans at dirt tracks up and down the West Coast and crowned a "King of the West" champion.

  THE NARC SPRINT CARS ARE HEADED TO THE "SHOWDOWN AT SANTA MARIA" ON SATURDAY

  (7/21/25 - Andrew Kunas) Santa Maria, CA ... -The "Cooler Weather Tour" continues for the NARC King of the West 410 sprint car series this Saturday, July 26th, when the series makes its annual visit to Santa Maria Speedway for the "Showdown at Santa Maria." Santa Maria Speedway, for most of its history that goes back to 1964, has been a regular stop for sprint cars, winged and non-wing. The track had faced closure a couple of times over the years, but recently got back up and running again and in 2024 it returned to the NARC schedule after a three-year absence. Last year's NARC event saw a wild finish in which Justyn Cox tangled with a slower car and flipped upside down on the final lap, costing him a victory. Chase Johnson took advantage and picked up his fourth career NARC win. He was joined on the podium by Kaleb Montgomery and Gauge Garcia, a pair of drivers worth keeping an eye on this Saturday. Montgomery is still hunting for his first NARC victory but has shown flashes at times. Montgomery, who lives just up the road from Santa Maria Speedway in Templeton, has turned in strong runs this season, including finishing fifth and sixth respectively during last weekend's Howard Kaeding Classic at Ocean Speedway. Finishing runner-up at Santa Maria last year and having won the USAC/CRA non-wing race at the same track in May, Montgomery could see this Saturday's race as the one where he gets his first NARC win. Garcia, from Lemoore, is also still searching for a NARC win. He and the Paso Robles-based Keller Motorsports No. 2k team have fought motor problems throughout the season, but have performed well in several main events, often passing many cars and on four occasions this season Garcia earned the Williams Roofing Hard Charger award. Before last year's return to Santa Maria, the last NARC race at Santa Maria Speedway was in 2021, and it was Benicia's Billy Aton who scored his first NARC victory that night. Saturday's event is part of NARC's "Cooler Weather Tour," as some have called it, the current stretch of events for the series happening at tracks along the California coast, where race teams and fans can expect more comfortable temperatures while it is typically very hot in the California interior. WHO ELSE TO WATCH Harrisburg, Oregon's Tyler Thompson has quietly put together a very solid and consistent season as he chases the NARC Rookie of the Year award aboard the Main Motorsports No. 35km. In 15 regular NARC events (not counting the special format seeing inverted main event fields at Skagit Speedway's Super Dirt Cup in June), Thompson recorded ten Top 10 finishes in those races, many of which had been at tracks he hadn't seen before. His best run was a third place finish on May 16th at Ocean Speedway, and in that race Thompson briefly challenged eventual race winner Justin Sanders for the lead. Thompson sits third overall in the points and has twice posted quick time in Automotive Racing Products Qualifying, twice won a heat race and twice earned the hard charger nod. Many have recently begun looking at Thompson as another driver due to make a big breakthrough in 410 sprint car competition. Former NARC champion D.J. Netto of Hanford, twice a winner this season and second in the points entering the weekend, along with 2005 NARC champion Sean Becker from Oroville, and 2019 series king Bud Kaeding from Campbell will fill out a stellar line-up of competitors. Others expected to compete include Fresno drivers Caeden Steele and Mariah Ede, Dominic Gorden from Clovis, Kansas driver Jace Park, Hollister's Ryan Bernal, and many others. FAN INFO Santa Maria Speedway is located at 1900 Hutton Road, right off of Hwy 101, in Nipomo, just north of Santa Maria itself. Tickets are $30 for adults, $28 for seniors 65+, military and students ages 11 to 17. Kids 10 and under are free. Front gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m. Also scheduled to race are IMCA Racesaver sprints, BCRA lightning sprints and dwarf cars.

  Chance Grasty flashes to victory at SCCT Speedweek stop in Placerville

  Placerville, CA…Chance Grasty withstood the challenges of Austin Wood and Andy Forsberg over the closing stages to claim his first career Placerville Speedway win, during an entertaining main event on night two of SCCT Speedweek. Grasty piloted the Friends & Family Racing/ Bushey Financial Services X1 to a $5,000 triumph at the Gold Pan Rampage. It marked his second ever Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour triumph, after claiming his initial victory at Petaluma Speedway last month. "That was so much fun tonight in the main event racing with Austin Wood and Andy Forsberg," Grasty said after the race. "I kind of messed up in the Dash but definitely made up for it in the feature. I really have to thank the entire F&F Racing team, Bushey Financial Services and all the partners on this car." Cotati's Jake Haulot captured the High Sierra Industries Dash to earn the pole for the 35-lap finale. When the green flag waved, he immediately shot out front and looked strong in the early laps. Austin Wood moved into the runner up spot on lap four, while eighth starting Grasty carved his way into third on lap number seven. Around lap 10 the duo began to go at it and with 11 circuits complete, Grasty slipped to his inside to assume second. With lapped traffic in play Grasty closed in on Haulot and quickly made it a race for the top spot. On lap 14 Haulot and Grasty proceeded to split a lapped car in thrilling fashion, which saw Grasty lead the 15th circuit. Wood then charged to the inside of Haulot to take over second on lap 20, prior to a caution shortly after. On the restart Auburn's Andy Forsberg moved his way into third and it set up an exhilarating 15-lap shootout to the end. Grasty, Wood and Forsberg fought tooth and nail up front with fans on the edge of their seats. A multi-groove surface allowed for some exceptional racing and in the end, Grasty was able to withstand the challenges to accept the Darin Stahl checkered flag. Wood finished the race in a close second with Forsberg rounding out the podium. Haulot and El Cajon's Braden Chiaramonte completed the top five in the Shop Kyle Larson main event. Finishing sixth through 10th were Jake Morgan, Shane Hopkins, Kelly Miller, Max Mittry and Kinzer Cox. Hopkins must be commended on his fantastic drive after starting dead last following a trip to the work area during the warmup laps due to a flat tire. Steel Powell officially earned the Pit Stop USA Hard Charger Award going from 23rd to 15th in the feature. A total of 28 cars competed on night two of SCCT Western Sprint Tour Speedweek. Austin Wood earned the Sierra Foothills Wine Services Fast Time Award for the second straight night with a lap of 10.702. SCCT Western Sprint Tour Speedweek continues Monday night at The Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Oregon.

  JUSTIN SANDERS SURVIVES, WINS WILD NARC HK CLASSIC OPENER

  (7/18/25 - Andrew Kunas) Watsonville, CA ... Justin Sanders emerged victorious after one of the wildest NARC sprint car main events of the season Friday, taking the opening night feature of the Howard Kaeding Classic at Ocean Speedway. Sanders inherited the lead with eight laps completed when early leader Bud Kaeding was bit by the treacherous cushion in Turn 1 and was sent flying off the track. Sanders led the rest of the 30-lapper for his NARC-leading fifth race of the season, but had to fend off Bud's brother Tim Kaeding along the way and wait through several cautions and red flags before finally taking the checkered flag. It was the second NARC win at Ocean Speedway this season for Sanders, who also captured the May 16th event at the Watsonville clay oval. Sanders won last year's Howard Kaeding Classic, his second HK win overall, but while Saturday's finale remains, it was special for Sanders still to take the win on the first night of a now two-night event that previously had honored the patriarch of the Kaeding Family as a special event guest since 2011. This year's event, however, took on special meaning with Howard passing away during the off-season. Out front after Bud Kaeding's misfortune, Sanders early on was challenged by Tim Kaeding, but found his groove and managed his way around the challenging top side of the race track. Despite the many cautions and red flags, of which there were five, Sanders still had to deal with slower traffic on occasion. Sanders managed to hold off a determined Tim in the closing laps for the win aboard the Yuba Sutter Aviation-sponsored Mittry Motorsports No. 2x Fisher-powered KPC. The $5,000 victory went with Sanders' other NARC Ocean win, a pair of wins at Silver Dollar Speedway, and a Dirt Cup preliminary at Skagit Speedway. Friday's Howard Kaeding Classic opener was probably the one that required the most patience out of Sanders this season. Tim Kaeding, racing in memory of his grandfather, finished second aboard the Emadco Disposal-sponsored Williams Motorsports No. 0 Maxwill-powered Maxim. Kaeding, one of California's most accomplished sprint car racers following his grandfather Howard and father Brent, thanked teams and fans for their support of the event this weekend. Kaeding though will now be focused on bettering his position by one spot on Saturday in an event he has not won before and will want to add to his already impressive resume. Behind Sanders and Kaeding, there were constant battles for and shuffling of positions throughout the Top 10. Dylan Bloomfield turned in one of his best finishes of the season after starting eighth. He battled with former NARC champion Sean Becker to move into fourth place and late in the race he battled with and passed another former NARC champion in D.J. Netto to move into third, and finished there aboard the Silva's All Natural Beef-sponsored Vertullo Racing No. 83v Kistler-powered Maxim. After being bit by the Turn 1 cushion and spinning out, Bud Kaeding went to the work area before returning to the track and racing his way back up to finish 12th. Bud, also one of California's most accomplished sprint car racers following his father and grandfather, is a two-time Howard Kaeding Classic winner but will be looking for a special third HK win on Saturday. Netto, who entered the event with the NARC points lead, finished fourth aboard the Penny Newman Grain-sponsored Netto Ag No. 88n Rider-powered KPC. Kaleb Montgomery, another driver who raced hard throughout, came from 13th and made late passes to secure fifth place aboard the Luxon Real Estate-sponsored Montgomery Racing No. 3 Speedway-powered Maxim. Becker, after starting tenth, bounced back from a crash last Saturday at Petaluma Speedway and finished sixth, followed by Nick Parker and the 14th starting Tyler Thompson. Tanner Carrick earned the Williams Roofing Hard Charger nod, coming from 18th to finish ninth. Dominic Gorden came back from a trip to the work area to round out the Top 10. Bud Kaeding won the Beacon Wealth Strategies - Raymond James Trophy Dash to secure the pole position for the feature event, with Sanders starting outside him. The Winters Performance Last Chance Qualifier was won by Jesse Schlotfeldt, who took Dominic Scelzi, Billy Aton and Jason Chisum with him to the feature race. Heat races earlier in the evening were won by Bud Kaeding, Gauge Garcia, Shane Golobic and Tim Kaeding. Bloomfield paced the 30-car field in Automotive Racing Products Qualifying with a time of 10.763 seconds around the ¼-mile clay oval, topping the second flight in a split field. That narrowly bettered Landon Brooks, who paced the first flight with a 10.768-second lap.

  $80,000+ IN PRIZE MONEY ON THE LINE FOR NARC SPRINT CARS AT HOWARD KAEDING CLASSIC THIS WEEKEND

  (7/14/25 - Andrew Kunas) Watsonville, CA ... One of the most special events of the season for the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series is next when it visits Ocean Speedway in Watsonville, this Friday and Saturday (July 18-19), for the 15th Annual Howard Kaeding Classic. The event honors the patriarch of the famed Kaeding family that includes his Hall of Fame son Brent, and grandsons Bud and Tim. HK, as he was known to his friends, was a champion racer in his own right, most especially at the old San Jose Speedway where he won several championships and at one point famously won 17 consecutive races. The race saluting the "Campbell Comet" was already a staple in the California 410 sprint car schedule, but this year's event has taken on special meaning with Howard passing away in February at the age of 92. Before Howard's passing, it was already announced that this year's event would be a two-night show. Now in just the last couple of weeks it was announced that Saturday's purse will see an increase, with the main event paying $10,000 to win ($1,500 to start A), while Friday's show pays a neat $5,000 ($750 to start A.) This was made possible by many generous sponsorships from companies with ties to the Kaeding family and the racing community. WHO TO WATCH With the added special meaning to the event, not to mention the now five-figure payday on the final night, many of the top drivers on the West Coast will be competing hard for victories. Reigning "King of the West" Justin Sanders of Aromas won his second Howard Kaeding Classic last year, one of his seven victories on his way to the 2024 NARC title. Sanders has four NARC wins to his credit this season, including a win at Ocean Speedway in May, but is locked in a tight points race atop the standings with former series champion D.J. Netto of Hanford, who is just one point ahead of Sanders. Netto, meanwhile, has never won a Kaeding Classic and would love to add one to his resume. Of course, no racer out there would love to win this weekend more than brothers Tim and Bud Kaeding, who will be racing with heavy hearts at the race honoring their grandfather. Bud has twice won the HK, picking up wins in 2014 and 2019. Tim picked up his 75th career NARC victory on Saturday at Petaluma Speedway and like his father and grandfather is one of the most accomplished sprint car racers ever from California. He has never won a Howard Kaeding Classic and Tim no doubt wants to get that first one this Saturday. Fremont's Shane Golobic, the 2023 Howard Kaeding Classic winner, is expected to compete, along with 2021 winner Sean Becker or Oroville. Tyler Thompson of Harrisburg, Oregon continues his search for his first NARC win but still sits third in points and leads the NARC Rookie of the Year chase. Fresno's Caeden Steele, a first-time NARC winner in May, had an impressive run at last Saturday's Petaluma event and will look to build off of that this weekend. Other drivers expected to race this weekend include two-time series champ Dominic Scelzi of Fresno, Lemoore's Gauge Garcia, Billy Aton of Benicia, Fresno's Mariah Ede, Dominic Gorden of Clovis, and Tucson's Nick Parker. The Howard Kaeding Classic was first held in 2011 with Evan Suggs picking up the win. NARC great Jonathan Allard won the next two. Kyle Hirst leads all drivers with three wins in the prestigious event. Colby Copeland and current World of Outlaws standout Buddy Kofoid each have single HK victories as well. FAN INFO Ocean Speedway is on the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds, located at 2601 E Lake Ave. Friday's show will have sport mods and hobby stocks in action also. On Saturday, NARC will be joined by the BCRA/WMR midgets, hobby stocks and modifieds. Qualifying will get underway at 5:30 p.m. with opening ceremonies at approximately 6:00 p.m. The pit gate opens at 2:00 p.m. After the races on Friday there will be an "After Party" on the track grounds. There will also be the Howard Kaeding Luncheon on Saturday that will see proceeds benefiting the NARC Benevolent Fund. This is all part of the Howard Kaeding Classic weekend at Ocean Speedway. This weekend's races are of the "Cooler Weather Tour," a stretch of races for NARC all taking place at tracks along the California coast and all expecting to have more comfortable coastal temperatures while the California interior bakes in summer heat. July 26th will see NARC make its annual visit to Santa Maria Speedway, before the series returns to Ocean Speedway on August 2nd for the Johnny Key Classic.

  NO. 75! TIM KAEDING BAGS NARC DAVE LINDT MEMORIAL AT PETALUMA

  (7/12/25 - Andrew Kunas) Petaluma, CA ... Tim Kaeding still knows how to win races. The former NARC champion and future Sprint Car Hall of Famer added to his already impressive resume, picking up $5,200 when he won the 2nd Annual Dave Lindt Memorial Saturday at Petaluma Speedway. It was a triumphant return home to California for Kaeding, who had raced out in the Midwest the last several weeks. Saturday's win was his 75th career NARC King of the West feature victory, second on the all-time win list. Kaeding, starting on the front row, did not fare well on the initial attempt to start the 30-lap feature, pulling a small wheelstand off Turn 4 and then bicycling some in Turns 1 and 2 as fellow front row start Caeden Steele took the lead. The caution flag came out, however, for a car stopping on the front stretch, forcing a do over. Kaeding, the experienced veteran sprint car racer, learned from his mistake and took full advantage of the second opportunity and grabbed the lead on the next start attempt. From there, on a typically fast and hooked up Petaluma track, Kaeding led all 30 laps aboard the Emadco Disposal-sponsored Williams Motorsports No. 0 Maxwill-powered Maxim. In addition to the top prize, Kaeding secured $300 in lap money from METTEC Titanium for leading every circuit. Lapped traffic was difficult at times, but Kaeding was able to navigate, making moves when he needed to as he knew there were fast cars chasing him. In the winner's circle, Kaeding showed he still enjoyed winning races, no matter how many times he's done it in any series, as he climbed up the back of his car and greeted the fans. He expressed gratitude to the Williams Motorsports team for putting the car together for him, and also for being able to race in Dave Lindt's memory on Saturday, having raced with him before. Steele on one restart was almost able to challenge Kaeding for the lead but struggled to turn in consistent laps on the challenging surface and couldn't keep pace. Behind him, D.J. Netto and Justin Sanders, who entered the night tied for the NARC points lead, started alongside each other in the second row and frequently raced with each other for positions in the Top 5 - and for the points lead - throughout the event. Netto eventually got around Steele for second place, and Sanders followed. Netto would pursue Kaeding for a time but could not get to him as they raced through traffic, and would finish second aboard the Penny Newman Grain-sponsored Netto Ag No. 88n Rider-powered KPC, while Sanders took third aboard the Yuba Sutter Aviation-sponsored Mittry Motorsports No. 2x Fisher-powered KPC. That resulted in Netto regaining the NARC points lead by a single point, unofficially. After running second most of the race, Steele finished fourth in the Tarlton & Son-sponsored BCCR No. 21 Shark-powered Maxim. Tyler Thompson finished fifth aboard the HAM Construction-sponsored Main Motorsports No. 35km Kistler-Maxim, and that unofficially put him back into third place in the point standings. Kansas visitor Jace Park was sixth. Gauge Garcia earned another Williams Roofing Hard Charger nod, coming from 15th to finish seventh. Mariah Ede, Nick Parker and Dominic Gorden rounded out the Top 10. Heat races earlier in the evening were won by Netto, Tim Kaeding and Steele. Kaeding won the Beacon Wealth Strategies Dash over Steele to secure the pole position for the main event. Sean Becker, winner of last year's inaugural Dave Lindt Memorial, paced the field in Automotive Racing Productions Qualifying, touring the 3/8-mile clay oval in 12.719 seconds.

  NARC INVADES PETALUMA SPEEDWAY FOR $5,200 TO WIN DAVE LINDT MEMORIAL

  (7/7/25 - Andrew Kunas) Petaluma, CA ... After a well-earned break following a very busy month of June, the NARC 410 sprint car series kicks off another busy stretch of racing on Saturday night, when the series makes its annual visit to Petaluma Speedway for the 2nd Annual Dave Lindt Memorial. The event honors Lindt, who was Petaluma Speedway's winningest driver ever, scoring 48 feature victories and earning five track championships along the way as he dominated weekly action at the track in the late 1990's and early 2000's. Lindt was known for his blue No. 52 sprint car, matching his high school colors and his football jersey number. Saturday's NARC main event will pay $5,200 to win in his memory. Saturday's show marks the first of four consecutive weeks of racing for NARC, the stretch nicknamed by some as the "cooler weather tour" as it is all at tracks along the Pacific coast, which should feature more comfortable weather conditions for racers and fans while the California interior bakes in summer heat. Former NARC champion Sean Becker of Oroville won the inaugural Dave Lindt Memorial last July after a late race battle with young Oakley driver Dylan Bloomfield. It was the last time the "Shark" visited victory lane in NARC competition. POINTS BATTLE & WHO TO WATCH After an eventful trip last month to the Pacific Northwest, there is a tie at the top of the NARC point standings, with reigning "King of the West" Justin Sanders of Aromas and former series champion D.J. Netto of Hanford neck and neck at 1,890 points apiece. Both drivers have multiple NARC victories on the season, Sanders with four and Netto with two, and both had their share of bad luck this year, including Netto getting upside down on consecutive nights during the Fastest Five Days in Motorsports. After their respective roller coaster rides, they are both at the top as NARC begins its summer swing. Sanders has had momentum on his side of late, picking up two NARC wins last month including a $10,000 preliminary night win at the Super Dirt Cup at Skagit Speedway before taking fifth in the Saturday finale against a tough field of racers. Sanders finished second to Becker at last year's Dave Lindt Memorial. Things are tight in general toward the top of the point standings, with just 20 points separating the Top 5. Former NARC champion Bud Kaeding of Campbell, though winless, is quietly having a solid season and is only 11 points out of the lead. Just three points behind Kaeding is Harrisburg, Oregon's Tyler Thompson, who is leading the NARC Rookie of the Year chase and has shown some flashes as well, picking up multiple fast qualifier awards, twice earning the hard charger nod, and challenging for a win at Ocean Speedway in May. Becker is only 20 points behind the leaders and at times has shown himself as a threat to win this season, most notably at Antioch Speedway in May when he led laps in the main event before a crash knocked him out of contention. Having last won at last year's Dave Lindt Memorial, Becker looks to get back in the win column this Saturday with a second straight Lindt triumph. Dominic Gorden of Clovis got his second career NARC victory on May 31st at the Dave Bradway Jr Memorial at Placerville Speedway. Gorden currently sits sixth in the point standings and hopes to get a second 410 victory for the season Saturday in Petaluma. A full field of 410 sprint cars are expected to compete at the 16th event on the ultra-competitive 27-race NARC schedule. To date, 15 races have produced nine different winners! FAN INFO Petaluma Speedway is located on the Petaluma Fairgrounds at 100 Fairgrounds Drive. Front gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing scheduled to start at 6:00 p.m. General admission for adults is $25, with juniors 12-16, seniors 65+ and military in for $22. Kids ages 6 to 11 are in for just $10. The Redwood Dwarf Cars, mini-stocks and hobby stocks are all scheduled to race on Saturday night with NARC. ABOUT NARC The Northern Auto Racing Club is the premier 410 winged sprint car series in the western United States.

  Chance Grasty strikes late at Petaluma Speedway for first SCCT win

  Petaluma, CA…Chance Grasty took advantage of lapped traffic late in the going to slip past Andy Forsberg and record his initial victory with the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour on Saturday. His triumph at Petaluma Speedway came aboard the familiar Friends & Family Racing/ Bushey Financial Services X1 mount. It marked Grasty's second career Sprint Car win, after claiming victory in Stockton earlier this season and allowed him to take over the SCCT point lead. "That one got pretty exciting once we could get some green flag laps put together," commented the 17-year-old. "I was fortunately able to get by Andy Forsberg and the lapped car with about five laps to go and just focused on hitting my marks after that. I want to thank everyone with the F&F X1 team for their support and all you fans for filling this place tonight." Reigning Elk Grove Ford SCCT champion Andy Forsberg claimed the High Sierra Industries Dash to earn the pole for the 35-lap feature. The Auburn veteran climbed out front at the waving of the green flag and held command for much of the race. Numerous cautions and slowdowns were seen throughout the first part, which created a fuel stop on lap 18 and kept racers out of lapped traffic for much of it. The final half of the race then clicked off problem free though and allowed the leaders to bunch up. Forsberg began to feel pressure from Grasty, along with Sacramento's Austin Wood who closed in on the top two late in the going. Racing through turns one and two on lap 29, Forsberg caught a lapped car at just the wrong moment, while Grasty made a beautiful move down low to get by for the top spot. As the white flag waved Forsberg closed back in, but Grasty hung strong and crossed under the checkered for his first ever Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour win. The Suisun City driver also began the evening by claiming the Sierra Foothills Wine Services Fast Time Award with a lap of 12.929, topping the 24-car field. Forsberg's strong run netted him a runner up finish, marking his third result of second or better in SCCT action. All four of his Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour starts have ended on the podium, as the 28-time California champ continues his fantastic campaign. Wood rounded out the podium to record yet another consistent finish this season and by doing so, moved to second in the series standings. Cotati's Jake Haulot and Bozeman, Montana's Cole Schroeder both put together solid outings to finish fourth and fifth respectively. Completing the top 10 at Petaluma Speedway on Saturday were Roseville's Jodie Robinson, Salinas' Caleb Debem, Dunnigan's Luke Hayes, Livermore's Travis Labat and Sebastopol's Bradley Terrell. Debem, the current Ocean Speedway point leader, earned the Pit Stop USA Hard Charger Award in the feature. The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour will now have a month off before resuming things with Western Sprint Tour Speedweek. It all gets underway with the annual Tyler Wolf Memorial at Chico's Silver Dollar Speedway on Friday July 18th.

  Petaluma Speedway welcomes SCCT for Wings Over Wine Country this Saturday

  Petaluma, CA…The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour campaign rolls on with its first appearance of the season at the cool confines of Petaluma Speedway this Saturday June 14th. The show dubbed as "Wings Over Wine Country" marks the fifth event for the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour this year. It's the first of two season stops at Petaluma Speedway, with a return visit occurring for the annual Adobe Cup in September. Please note the facility features an earlier start time, with the Pit Meeting at 3:45pm and cars on track at 4pm. "We look forward to having the Sprint Car Challenge Tour here at Petaluma Speedway on Saturday," commented track Promoter Rick Faeth. "It will be our first traveling Winged Sprint Car show of the season, and I know our fans are hungry for it. Hopefully everyone can come out and join us for the night." The show at Sonoma County's longest running entertainment venue is the final SCCT race prior to Western Sprint Tour Speedweek, which gets underway on July 18th in Chico. Wings Over Wine Country this Saturday will award $3,000-to-win/ $400-to-start the Shop Kyle Larson main event. Petaluma Speedway is always a welcome stop for race fans around Northern California. The 3/8 mile clay oval routinely yields thrilling wheel-to-wheel competition, as lapped traffic can create some of the most hectic action of any venue on tour. Auburn's Andy Forsberg is the most recent winner in Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour competition, having snagged the Davy Thomas Memorial on May 30th. The two-time SCCT champion also claimed the Adobe Cup at Petaluma Speedway last September in Petaluma. "I always enjoy going to Petaluma Speedway and hope to see a full house on Saturday with the Sprint Car Challenge Tour," commented Forsberg. "We've been running well, which certainly gives me confidence going into the night. Petaluma only holds Winged Sprint Car races on a limited basis nowadays so that always makes it special to get down there."
