  Dominic Scelzi Posts Third Straight KWS-NARC Victory and First Ever at Petaluma Speedway

  Inside Line Promotions – PETALUMA, Calif. (May 23, 2022) – Dominic Scelzi earned his third consecutive King of the West-NARC Fujitsu Series feature triumph last Saturday, becoming the first driver to score three straight wins

  TRIFECTA: SCELZI DOMINATES PETALUMA FOR THIRD STRAIGHT NARC WIN

  (5/21/2022 - Alex Nieten) Petaluma, CA... It's been quite the eight-day stretch for Dominic Scelzi. Last weekend, the reigning NARC Fujitsu General Sprint Car champion swept the NARC portion of the Peter Murphy Classic, becoming the first driver the win the finale twice in the process. And Saturday night at Petaluma Speedway's Salute to First Responders, Scelzi led all 30 circuits en route to his third straight series victory. With his third consecutive triumph, he became the first person to accomplish the feat since Kyle Hirst in 2016. The win was the 18th of his career, and Petaluma Speedway became the 10th different track he's won at in NARC competition. As if that list of milestones wasn't enough, Scelzi again extended his point lead as his title defense continues. After the checkered flew, Scelzi continued to heap praise on his crew for his success. "What can I saw about these guys?" Scelzi said of his crew. "That's three in a row. Jimmy (Carr) has this thing on kill mode. This is not my cup of tea when we've got to get up on the gas like this, and we were really good tonight." After winning the Sunnyvalley Bacon Trophy Dash, Scelzi earned the pole for the Fujitsu General Feature, lining up next to second-starting Willie Croft. With the way the Petaluma adobe clay surface was hooked up, Scelzi made potentially the winning move on the opening lap by rocketing by Croft out of turn two to take the initial lead. "I knew the start was going to be key," Scelzi said. "This place is known for getting wetter and wetter as the night goes and it did that tonight." Scelzi quickly opened a big lead in the early going in his Red Rose Transportation/Whipple Superchargers No. 41 as Croft settled into second and Chase Johnson faced a challenge from Justin Sanders for third. The leaders entered traffic before 10 laps were complete, and just as things were tightening as they navigated slower cars, the race's first caution flew. Tim Kaeding, who was running inside the top-10, had trouble with a slower car and contact between the them sent Kaeding into Ryan Robinson, ending TK's night and hampering Robinson's. On the ensuing restart Scelzi again jumped out to a strong advantage. Croft and Johnson continued to pursue as heavy traffic again became a factor with just 10 circuits remaining. However, another caution for John Clark and Billy Aton colliding in turn two with nine laps to go temporarily eliminated the threat of traffic. As the laps dwindled after the next restart, lap traffic presented Croft with one final opportunity. Scelzi struggled to get by Geoffrey Strole, swinging wide out of turn four and scraping momentum. Croft dove to his inside down the front stretch, but Scelzi hammered the top in turns one and two, clearing Croft and Strole and ultimately cruising to victory. "I feel like Andy Forsberg right now," Scelzi said with a laugh after the race. "It was juiced up and bouncy and all over the place." Croft held on to bring his Holey Smokes BBQ/Amerikote Powdercoating No. 29 home in the runner-up spot, his first podium of the year and third top-10 as he continues to chase his first series title. "First off I'd like to thank my crew, Billy and my son, Cole," Croft said. "Some of my guys couldn't make it this weekend, so luckily Billy jumped in the truck and really helped us out... Things just didn't quite go my way. I thought they were in traffic there then I just ran out of laps. The track was technical. It had slick and wet. It had moisture and a curb. It was pretty entertaining." The third-place spot was filled by the hometown hero, Chase Johnson in his Price-Simms/Toyota No. 24. It was his first NARC podium since July of 2019. Johnson was proud to have made some strides with his family-owned machine in front of his home fans. "It was a good night tonight," Johnson said. "Sure would've liked to be two spots better, but third with how our year's been going so far with the 24 car is a good improvement. We've been struggling getting a handle on it, but we kind of got a little bit more of a handle on it now." Completing the top-10 was Justin Sanders, Mitchell Faccinto, Shane Golobic, Bud Kaeding, Joel Myers Jr., Landon Brooks (first series top-10), and Ryan Robinson.

  SEXTON GATLIN RACING SWEEPS THE PODIUM AT BARONA

  (Lakeside, CA, May 18, 2022) Sexton Gatlin Racing made a shambles of the proceedings by sweeping the podium when the Lucas Oil Southwest Lightning Series visited Barona Speedway last Saturday night. Dalton Sexton returned to victory lane for the second time in 2022 and he was followed home by teammates David Bezio and Brent Sexton. 281830025_10222373774435009_4425940720326648923_n.jpg Dalton Sexton on his way to the wingless main event win at Barona. Missy Benker photo. Missing from the squad on Saturday night was 2021 SWLS champion Grant Sexton. The 17-year-old took the night off to attend his high school prom. When his seat became open, Bezio gladly stepped in for his young friend. The domination of the Lakeside, California team began in the heat races. Dalton was on the pole and captured the first heat. Heat two saw Brent off the pole with Bezio alongside. Showing no respect for the boss, Bezio was the first to the checkered flag with Brent in the runner-up spot. For the 20-lap main event, Dalton was starting on the inside of the third row in his Sexton Fire Protection/BK Wings/Troy Dirt/Victory Graphix/Swift Powdercoat/Maxima Oil/Infiniti Shocks/Scotty and Jimmy Keys #18. Bezio was starting next to him in fourth with Brent in fifth. Dalton immediately drove into second as soon as the race started. Bezio and Brent settled into fourth and fifth. Dalton became embroiled in a war for the lead that raged on for several laps before he secured the spot. Once out front, he was unchallenged the rest of the way. Bezio and Brent had to work harder for their top-three finishes. They were still fourth and fifth before Bezio picked off two cars just past the halfway point to take over second. Brent was still mired in fifth when the fourth-place driver tapped the car in third and sent it spinning. With nowhere to go, Brent slid to a stop. It looked like he and the car that was hit would have to go to the back. However, track officials penalized the car that started the incident and sent it to the rear. Brent and the other car involved were allowed to restart and move up one spot from where they were (due to the offending car being sent to the back). That put Brent in fourth. The race restarted with a handful of laps to go, and Dalton ran away from the pack once again and picked up his first win since March 4th at Imperial Valley. Bezio placed second for the second time in 2022. Brent fought his way into third as time was running out giving SGR the top-three sweep. Dalton's win propelled him back into the point going into the June 8th race at Barona. Brent is second, only 21-points behind his firstborn. Bezio is third, 34-points behind Dalton. Grant is eighth. SGR was initially headed to Missouri next week for the POWRi Lightning Sprint Nationals. However, with the price of fuel through the roof, they have decided to skip that trip. Instead, they are attempting to get Grant's 360 sprint car ready for a debut with the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars in the historical "Salute To Indy" at Perris Auto Speedway. Sexton/Gatlin Racing would like to thank the following companies for making the 2022 season possible. Sexton Fire Protection, BK Wings, Troy Dirt, Victory Graphix, Swift Powdercoat, Maxima Oil, Infiniti Shocks and an extra special thanks to Scotty and Jimmy Keys. Plans are already underway for another busy season in 2022.

  NARC SPRINT CARS HEAD TO PETALUMA FOR SALUTE TO FIRST RESPONDERS

  (3/16/22) Sacramento, CA... The NARC Fujitsu General 410 Sprint Cars continue a busy month this Saturday, May 21st with Petaluma Speedway's Salute to First Responders. The event honors our many brave first responders and their efforts to ensure our safety and peace of mind. All first responders who present a valid ID at the gate will be admitted for the discounted price of just $10 to enjoy a night of racing from the West Coast's best 410 sprint car drivers. The race will mark the fifth of the 2022 NARC campaign and first visit to Petaluma of the year. The series will make one more trip to the adobe clay oval on July 9th. Also on the card for Saturday are Modifieds, Super Stocks, and Mini Stocks. After an off-season full of hard work to improve the historic racetrack that included reshaping the surface, facility improvements, and additional safety measures, promoter Rick Faeth is looking forward to welcoming NARC for the first time this year, and he's planned some additional fan-friendly events for the Salute to First Responders, too. "The track had become very misshapen over time," Faeth explained. "So, we've gotten it shaped now with five degrees of banking on the straightaways and twelve degrees in the turns, and the shape is holding up really well. We've got eight races in so far this year. The feedback we've gotten from all of our local drivers has been amazing. It's like a different racetrack. "We're looking forward to having the NARC Fujitsu Sprint Car series. We've been a big supporter of them over the course of the last decade," Faeth added. "It's First Responders Night. The local police and fire departments are going to come out, and we're going to have a 1936 antique fire truck there on display, and we're looking forward to it." Championship Chase It's impossible to lose points when you win, so Dominic Scelzi maintained his NARC point lead and extended it with his weekend sweep of the NARC portion of the Peter Murphy Classic. He now leads a new second place driver as a pair of top-fives during the Peter Murphy Classic propelled Mitchell Faccinto into the runner-up spot as the Tarlton Motorsports drivers continues to hunt his first title. Shane Golobic fell to third in points after trouble in Hanford on Saturday. Completing the top-five behind him are full-time series drivers Bud Kaeding and Willie Croft. Who to Watch The numbers immediately point to Bud Kaeding as a strong favorite. The Campbell native's consistency at Petaluma is off the charts. In his last 16 series starts at the three-eighths mile, the 2017 NARC champion has collected three wins, posted a 3.8 average finish, and finished no worse than eighth. It's a home race for the native of nearby Benicia, Billy Aton. Wild Bill has always performed well with NARC at Petaluma, collecting four top-10s in six starts including his inaugural series podium back in July of 2019 when he finished runner-up after leading seven laps. Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr. continues to hunt for his first series victory, and he's taken well to the Petaluma gumbo in past appearances. Last year in just his second NARC start the Vertullo Motorsports driver finished third at the three-eighths mile. Then in July Myers Jr. appeared headed to Petaluma victory lane until an incident with lapped traffic while leading ended that bid. Another driver that the stats favor is Fremont's Shane Golobic. In his seven most recent NARC starts at Petaluma, Golobic has tallied a pair of wins, not missed the top-five, and owns an average finish of 2.7 over that span. Former Petaluma NARC winners Tim Kaeding, Willie Croft, and Colby Copeland should also be in the mix. Other drivers expected to compete include Fresno's Dominic Scelzi, Hanford's Mitchell and Michael Faccinto, Idaho's Logan Forler, Hanford's Geoffrey Strole, Penngrove's Chase Johnson, and more. Fan & Competitor Info The NARC-King of the West Hoosier Tire format will feature ARP Fast Time Qualifying, 10-lap Heat Races, a six-lap Sunnyvalley Bacon Trophy Dash, and the Fujitsu General USA 30-lap Feature. The headliner will pay competitors $600 to start. The pit gate will open at noon with the front gate set to open at 4:00 P.M. Hot laps are slated for 5:00 P.M. with racing scheduled to begin around 6:00 P.M. Adult General Admission tickets are $25. Seniors ages 65+ can purchase tickets for $22. Juniors ages 6-11 tickets will be just $10. Kids 5 and under are free. First responders who present a valid ID will be admitted for just $10.

  TULARE AND HANFORD WELCOME NARC FOR PETER MURPHY CLASSIC

  (5/9/22) Sacramento, CA ... This weekend will bring a double dose of the NARC Fujitsu General 410 Sprint Cars as the series will compete on both nights of the highly anticipated Peter Murphy Classic, Friday, May 13th at Tulare's Thunderbowl Raceway and the $11,000 to win finale at Hanford's Keller Auto Speedway on Saturday, May 14th. This year marks the eighth edition of the popular staple of the California sprint car circuit. The two races are promoted by Murphy himself and are his way of giving back to the racing community that helped him following his career-ending crash in 2013. Murphy's efforts always lead to a lucrative purse, especially the Saturday portion which not only awards $11,000 to the winner, but also $1,000 to start the Fujitsu General feature event. Saturday night will be the second highest purse of the 2022 NARC season, behind only Skagit Speedway's Super Dirt Cup. The race also helps raise money for the NARC Benevolent Fund, the not-for-profit that helps injured racer's families in times of need. The weekend will have no shortage of sprint car action as the Sprint Car Challenge Tour 360 Sprint Cars will join NARC in both Tulare and Hanford. Friday and Saturday will mark races three and four of the 2022 NARC Fujitsu General Sprint Car campaign. (The April 10th race has yet to be rescheduled.) Championship Chase It only took two races for last year's NARC titlist, Dominic Scelzi, to take over the 2022 point lead. Back-to-back podium finishes to kick off the campaign have given the Fresno driver the top spot with a current tally of 228 points. Four points behind Scelzi holding the runner-up position is Aromas' Justin Sanders, and a mere five points separate the drivers in spots two through five. Sanders (224 points) leads the way with Corey Day (223), Shane Golobic (222), and Tanner Carrick (219) just behind him. Not much farther back are four full-time drivers in positions six through nine. Mitchell Faccinto is sixth with 217 points, and Willie Croft (213), Bud Kaeding (213), and Tim Kaeding (207) fill out the three spaces behind him. Who to Watch The point leader, Dominic Scelzi, stands out as a strong favorite for both nights. Last year "The Dominator" swept all four features of the Peter Murphy Classic. Scelzi also went on to claim the Chris and Brian Faria Memorial at Tulare in July last year and the opening feature of the Morrie Williams Memorial in Hanford. If Scelzi can win the opening night at Tulare, he'll join Brent Kaeding, Jason Meyers, and Kyle Hirst as the only drivers to win three consecutive NARC events at the Thunderbowl. "I know we've got points on the line both nights with NARC," Scelzi said. "But in reality, we're more worried about rolling in there and trying to win races... We want to hang it all out, put it on the line, and do the best job we can to, hopefully, win all four of them." Another former champion, Campbell's Bud Kaeding, promises to be a threat especially at the Thunderbowl. In his last 13 NARC starts in Tulare, Kaeding has amassed two wins, eight podiums, eleven top-fives and twelve top-10s. His lone finish outside the top-10 during that stretch likely would've been a win if it weren't for a final lap accident in the 2019 Peter Murphy Classic. Kaeding is also a four-time series feature winner in Hanford. Keeping with the pattern of past champions who own impressive records at the pair of central valley tracks, 2019 titlist D.J. Netto may pick up his first win since last year's season opener this weekend. The Thunderbowl is the site of the Hanford native's inaugural series victory back in 2015, and he's carrying a streak of 13 consecutive NARC top-10s at Tulare with a 5.5 average finish over that span. Netto is yet to win a NARC race at Keller Auto Speedway, but he's been strong at his home track with his best series finishes there being a pair of runner-ups. Former NARC winners at one or both tracks who will be aiming for more success this weekend include San Jose's Tim Kaeding, Fremont's Shane Golobic, Hanford's Mitchell Faccinto, Colivs' Corey Day, and Colfax's Willie Croft. Other drivers expected to compete include Hanford's Michael Faccinto, Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr., Benicia's Billy Aton, Roseville's Colby Copeland, Idaho's Logan Forler, Oregon's Tanner Holmes, Yuba City's Landon Brooks, Sacramento's Angelique Bell and more. Fan & Competitor Info The NARC-King of the West Hoosier Tire format for Friday and Saturday will feature ARP Fast Time Qualifying, 8-lap Heat Races, a Sunnyvalley Bacon Pole Shuffle, a Kaeding Performance Semi and the Fujitsu General USA 30-lap Feature. On Friday the Thunderbowl pit gate will open at 1:00 P.M. while the front gate will open at 4:00 P.M. Hot laps are scheduled for 5:00 P.M. with qualifying and racing to follow. On Saturday in Hanford the pit gate will open at 1:00 P.M. and the front gate at 4:00 P.M.

  NARC SPRINT CARS HEAD TO CHICO FOR DAVID TARTER MEMORIAL

  (4/25/22) Sacramento, CA ... The NARC Fujitsu General 410 Sprint Cars will travel to the historic Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, California this Saturday, April 30th for the tenth annual David Tarter Memorial. The event honors the late driver who tragically passed in 2012, less than a year after he claimed Silver Dollar Speedway's Rookie of the Year honors. On top of being a promising talent behind the wheel, the Chico native was admired in the community, and his home track has hosted a night of racing in his honor since 2013. Saturday's Fujitsu General USA Feature will award $3500 to the winner as a tribute to Tarter's car number. Proceeds and donations raised at the event will go to the David Tarter 35 Foundation which benefits the pediatric ward of Chico's Enloe Medical Center. The foundation has already helped raise more than $20,000 for Enloe. Saturday will mark the second race of the 2022 NARC campaign. The West Coast's premier 410 sprint car series has made more than 200 trips to Silver Dollar Speedway since the first visit back in 1968, but this will be the first since the promising new promotional group, SLC Promotions, took the reigns. The trio that composes the group, Brad Sweet, Kyle Larson, and Colby Copeland, are excited to welcome NARC for the special event as they continue to usher in a new era at the quarter mile dirt oval. "Tarter was a great guy on and off the track because he would do anything for anyone to help them out," Copeland said. "He didn't have a very big budget at all but would give his shirt off his back if a guy needed it. "It's cool to help the David Tarter Memorial race keep going because he was loved by so many people," Copeland added. "It's awesome to see how many friends and family come out to support the Tarter race. Hopefully we can do a good job and live up to the hype the Tarter Memorial brings." Championship Chase After high winds forced the cancellation of the Anthony Simone Classic, the NARC Fujitsu General Sprint Car standings look the same as they did after the season opener at Stockton early this month. Colby Copeland leads the way courtesy of his dominant win at the NARC opener. However, with his promoting obligations this weekend Copeland will have to exit the cockpit and relinquish the points lead. Full-time series drivers Dominic Scelzi (2nd in points), Mitchell Faccinto (3rd), and Willie Croft (5th) are primed to take over the point lead early in their championship hunts. A host of others chasing the title are also hoping to make leaps in the standings this weekend. Who to Watch A driver everyone will be keeping their eyes on is Elk Grove native Paul McMahan. The 1994 & 1995 NARC runner-up is flying in from his home in Tennessee and is climbing back in Clyde Lamar's iconic TRI-C Machine with hopes to wheel it to Silver Dollar Speedway victory lane one more time as the ultimate tribute to the late car owner. Before he became a star on the World of Outlaws tour, McMahan cut his teeth in California and picked up his fair share of checkered flags in the No. 3C. McMahan is a four-time NARC feature winner at Silver Dollar Speedway with a trio of those coming in the TRI-C Machine. Also helping to honor Clyde Lamar will be a celebration of life at the track at 12:30 P.M. on Saturday. "I'm semi-retired," McMahan said. "But I couldn't retire without driving Clyde Lamar's car in Chico one last time." There is no track more synonymous with success on Tim Kaeding's NARC resumé than Silver Dollar Speedway. Of TK's 71 series victories, 18 of them have come in Chico. During one stretch of the San Jose driver's career from 2003 to 2008, Kaeding put together a run of 20 consecutive NARC top-fives at Silver Dollar Speedway including 11 of his 18 total wins. Aromas' Justin Sanders has developed a reputation as one of the best on the bullrings, and he'll look to add to that this weekend. Sanders has won in two of his last three series starts at Silver Dollar Speedway including NARC's most recent trip for last year's Louie Vermeil Classic finale. A driver hungry to get to victory lane with a good shot Saturday is Colfax's Willie Croft. Croft hasn't snagged a NARC checkered flag since a 2018 triumph at none other than Silver Dollar Speedway. The track is also home to his inaugural series win back in 2004. Also expected to compete this Saturday are Fresno's Dominic Scelzi, Campbell's Bud Kaeding, Hanford brothers Mitchell and Michael Faccinto, Benicia's Billy Aton, Hanford's D.J. Netto, Fremont's Shane Golobic, Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr., Australian Kerry Madsen, Clovis' Corey Day, Roseville's Sean Becker, Hollister's Ryan Bernal, Idaho's Logan Forler, the brothers from Lincoln Tanner and Blake Carrick, Angelique Bell from Sacramento, and more.

  Open Wheel Racing On The Schedule For Antioch Speedway Saturday Night

  Antioch, CA...Racing fans will be treated to something a little bit different when action resumes at Antioch Speedway this Saturday night. The Contra Costa County Fairgrounds facility will see the season debut of the popular Wingless Spec Sprint division along with Delta Dwarf Cars, Mini Stocks and an appearance by the WMR Midgets. There will also be an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids during intermission. It was 23 years ago when Antioch Speedway debuted a brand new Sprint Car class that was geared towards making this division more affordable to drivers on a tighter budget. The man who wrote the rules, Don O'Keefe Jr, labeled them SPEC Sprints, which stood for Sprint Parts Economy Class at the time. No other track in the state had this division. They never fielded less than 12 cars throughout the entire season, making it the most successful launching of a division at Antioch Speedway in the modern era. Several tracks followed Antioch Speedway's lead in starting their own classes, and the popular Hunt Wingless Sprint Series also took its cue from Antioch. Two of the drivers on that original roster still compete at the speedway these days. Second-generation racer Dan Gonderman is racing with the IMCA Stock Cars these days, although he still has a Sprint Car at his disposal. Rick Panfili was also there for the first race and has competed every season since. Other drivers might be better known and get more of the glory, but it's dependable racers like Rick that the track counts on. Panfili has logged quite a bit of seat time and is respected among his peers. He started racing with the NCMA 30 years ago. He decided to get involved with Spec Sprint racing at Antioch to cut down on some of the traveling he had to do and race closer to home. He's been Top 3 ranked in the standings on multiple occasions and finished as high as second. Second is also his high mark in Main Event competition, which he's done multiple times. Budget always dictates how much Rick will get to race, but we will see him compete on the dirt oval this Saturday night. Bob Newberry has garnered a bit more of the glory. He's third ranked on the Wingless Spec Sprint win list with a pair of championships at Antioch. He's also a champion at Chico and nearly got the job done at Petaluma as well. Wherever he goes, he's fast. He was at Antioch last Saturday night giving his car a shake down run. The reigning champion is Ryon Siverling. His grandfather Burt ran with the NCMA in the 1990s. Some of the drivers to watch for include ageless veteran Roy Fisher, Kevin Box, Jeff Scotto, Tony Bernard, James East and Steve Maionchi. The WMR Midgets were introduced by Mike McCluny back in 2019. McCluney has been involved in this sport for many years, and he saw the need to create an open wheel division that could bring drivers up from the Micro Sprint ranks. Midget racing needed a shot in the arm, and the Ecotec rules package provided by the WMR Midgets was just the ticket. The WMR has seen some talented racers, such as Sage Boardenave, Nate Wait and reigning champion Blake Bower come up from the 600 Micros. Bower also won the USAC Western States Midget championship last season. Perhaps the hardest driver to beat on the track is David Prickett. Prickett was the champion a year earlier and is seen as the barometer for the division. If you can beat him, you're beating somebody who is very fast. Prickett recently got the win at Marysville. He also fields multiple cars in an effort to get other drivers involved. Some of the stars to watch for this week include Kyle Hawse, Todd Hawse, Megan Moorhead, Bryant Bell and Shawn Arriaga. The Delta Dwarf Cars have proven to be very entertaining. The man with the target on his back will be two-time champion Danny Wagner. Wagner has kicked off the season with back-to-back victories. This leaves Devan Kammermann in hot pursuit of his very first win, while others such as Ellie Russo, Jack Haverty, Sean Catucci, Travis Day and Chance Russell are also in the thick of the battle. There is also the father and son team of David Rosa and his son, David Michael Rosa. The family has been involved in racing at the speedway for several years, going back to David's older brother Anthony Rosa, who raced Stock Cars in the late 1970s. David's other brother Frank Rosa raced Street Stocks and Mini Trucks as well. David has earned the accolades as a two-time Street Stock champion and the driver who has more wins in that class than anybody else in speedway history. He's also had some success in Super Stocks and the Figure 8, but he's added some wins in Dwarf Cars as well. What makes Dwarf Car racing more enjoyable for the elder Rosa is the fact that he gets to compete with his son. Daughter Victoria Rosa competed with David in the Super Hobby Stock class with some success. However, David Michael Rosa has picked up several wins in the Dwarf Car ranks. The two Rosa's race very hard when they're on the track together. It's not just everybody else they want to beat. They want to beat each other. More importantly, a night at the race track is a good bonding experience for the father and son. The Mini Stocks round out what is sure to be an exciting program. Management introduced the division prior to the 2020 season as a way to give new racers an entry point. Hobby Stock star Jess Paladino and Tom Brown are the previous two champions. Brown actually competed at the speedway in Mini Trucks several years earlier, and he's a two-time champion at Petaluma Speedway as well. Brown ran strong at opener, but he ended up settling for second behind Randy Miramontez. The Speedway has added several new local drivers. This includes Laina Bales, Dana Gardner, Dan Abitz and Ryan Graham. The latter two are competing in Ford Pintos, which is the same model as Brown. Unfortunately, Abitz saw his race end early last time out when he tangled with Gardner in Turn 4 during their heat race. He and Graham will be hoping to give it a good run this Saturday night. Grandstands will open at 4:00 pm with the first race starting at 6:00 pm. For further information, go to www.antiochspeedway.com.

  Stock Car Excitement Comes To Antioch Speedway

  Antioch, CA...Stock Car racing is the name of the game this Saturday night at Antioch Speedway. In addition to the IMCA Modifieds, the IMCA Stock Cars will be back for their third appearance of the season, joined by the Pacific Coast General Engineering Hobby Stocks and the Super Stocks. It's shaping up to be an exciting season so far, and we're just getting started. The IMCA Modifieds have been a wide open battle. The three races held so far have found five-time champion Troy Foulger, Kellen Chadwick and Nick DeCarlo each taking a trip to the Winner's Circle. The common denominator in the point battle is that DeCarlo and Chadwick, one-time Antioch champions themselves, have been in the hunt at every race. The standings find DeCarlo leading Chadwick by just two points, while 2016 champion Bobby Motts Jr is eight points out of the lead in third. We haven't seen Chadwick really competing for points at the speedway in quite some time. As the second-generation competitor became faster, he chose to take his talents on the road to compete for bigger money at other venues. This has led to him winning prestigious races such as the Beads Shipwreck Nationals at Grays Harbor in Washington, the R Charles Snyder Salute in Oregon as well as other big races in California. Chadwick even won the big $7,000 prize in the West Coast Nationals at Antioch in 2019. When the money is on the line, Kellen comes up big. When he was younger, Kellen was also a fast competitor in the Outlaw Kart divisions, and he instantly developed a love for race cars. A scary incident in a Late Model could have ended his life and his career, but Chadwick is a tough competitor. After he recovered, he not only returned, but he remains one of the best IMCA Modified drivers on the West Coast. He also competes in the new IMCA Stock Car class and is a contender for that championship, piloting a car for Rich Quadrelli. IMCA is better known for their Modified divisions, but the Stock Car class is catching fire in California. The consistency shown by Chadwick after two events has him just four markers behind leader Fred Ryland and one ahead of reigning champion Travis Dutra. Anthony Giuliani has done well to rank just eight points out of lead and two ahead of Jason Robles, who got the win last time out. The Stock Cars are noteworthy for the side by side racing they've given the fans as this style of racing is just a little bit more thrilling than your average Hobby Stock race. The Hobby Stocks are definitely delivering the excitement to the fans. Reigning division champion Larry McKinzie Jr could have ended up calling it a night after an incident between he and Jared Baugh in last week's race. Larry restarted at the back of the pack. He kept at it and completed his charge to the front with a last lap pass on Ken Johns for second. The glory went to Misty Welborn, who scored a popular second career win. McKinzie now leads 2020 Mini Stock champion Jess Paladino by 14 points and Welborn by 18. Not to be forgotten in this battle are the tied Michaela Taylor and rookie Taylor DeCarlo, 22 points out of the lead. DeCarlo is the granddaughter of 80-year-old IMCA Modified competitor Terry DeCarlo Sr and the daughter of Top 5 Modified competitor Terry DeCarlo Jr. She's been competing in Micro Sprints, but she decided to take on the challenge of the Hobby Stock and had a fifth place finish last time out. Much like DeCarlo, Michaela Taylor is a threat to win. She showed just how much she has improved over the last two seasons with her run at the front of the pack in the Main Event for several laps last week. Michaela is driving the #71 Hobby Stock, made famous by her grandmother, Debbie Clymens. In fact, Debbie has run as a passenger with her, which means 17-year-old Taylor is getting advice from an Antioch Speedway Hall of Famer. The way she's looking, a Main Event win could be in her future. Management has decided to give the Super Stock drivers an opportunity to rebuild the class. It was a little bit late notice for some of the drivers last time out, and reigning champion Jim Freethy beat 2020 champion Mike Walko to get the win. Walko has competed in Late Models and IMCA Modifieds at Antioch and did well in both divisions. Management has put out a call to drivers from neighboring Petaluma Speedway that they are welcome to come race with the Antioch competitors. Local drivers Jimmy Robbins and Michael Burch are said to be preparing their cars to battle the likes of Chad Hammer and Joey Ridgeway Jr. Who might show up from Petaluma is unknown, but several drivers have expressed interest. Petaluma drivers have done well at Antioch in their visits through the years, and they certainly add to the excitement. This Saturday night's program starts with the gates opening at 3:00 pm. This is to accommodate a special $5 beer happy hour event at the south beer garden, which runs until 5:00 p.m. the first race will start at 6:00 pm. Ticket prices are $20 for adults, $15 for military, senior (60 and over) and children (under 11) with children five and under free. For further information, go to www.antiochspeedway.com.

  SECOND ANNUAL $10,000 TO WIN ANTHONY SIMONE CLASSIC ON DECK FOR NARC

  (4/4/22) Sacramento, CA ... The NARC Fujitsu General 410 Sprint Cars roll right into round two this weekend with the second edition of the Anthony Simone Classic this Saturday, April 9th at Hanford's Keller Auto Speedway. The event honors the late Anthony "Mr. Excitement" Simone who sadly passed last year and awards a whopping $10,000 to the winner. As a tip of the cap to the versatile driver, a special NARC non-wing race will take place immediately after the Fujitsu Feature concludes. The wingless event will consist only of drivers who competed in the winged portion, and like last year the teams will remove the wings and make adjustments in the work area on the front stretch. A unique format also awaits the drivers with an emphasis on the number 10, Simone's car number. There will be five Brown and Miller Racing Solutions five-lap Heat Races lined up straight up based on ARP Qualifying times and will take the top-two finishers to the Sunnyvalley Bacon Trophy Dash, equaling 10 cars. Those 10 cars will take part in a pill draw with the options of four, six, or eight to set the lineup for the Dash. Then, they'll duke it out open wheel-style for 10 laps to determine the first five rows of the 30-lap Fujitsu Feature. Keller Auto Speedway underwent a minor reconfiguration in the off-season which may throw a curve ball to the entire pit area as promoter Peter Murphy continues to improve the facility. Saturday will mark the first of three NARC visits to Hanford in 2022. The Championship Chase Following this past weekend's NARC opener, a part-time driver leads the standings in the form of Roseville's Colby Copeland courtesy of his Stockton win. Copeland doesn't plan to race this Saturday, so he'll relinquish the top spot. Looking to take his place will be current runner-up and reigning series titlist Dominic Scelzi. The Fresno native opened his championship defense with a second-place run at Stockton, his sixth career podium at the facility and 11th in his last 15 series starts dating back to 2021. Just two markers behind Scelzi is Tarlton Motorsports pilot Mitchell Faccinto. He picked up his 12th career series podium in his maiden NARC voyage aboard the No. 21 as he began the pursuit of his first championship. Among other confirmed full-time drivers toward the front Colfax's Willie Croft sits fifth in points (-6 behind Copeland), Tim Kaeding is seventh (-8), and Bud Kaeding is ninth (-10). Who to Watch This weekend is a home game for brothers Mitchell and Michael Faccinto who hail from Hanford. Two of Mitchell's three career NARC wins have come at Keller Auto Speedway. Michael picked up a USAC Western States Midget victory at Hanford last year, and his first two career NARC feature starts came at the three-eighths mile, including his debut in his current ride, the Mike Phulps No. 56, last season. "Getting an early season win at Hanford for the Simone would be huge for this team (Tarlton Motorsports)," Mitchell Faccinto said heading into the weekend. "With the different track layout, we were able to at least get one night on it before we start points racing which will help. Even though we struggled a little during the World of Outlaws (California) swing, I have full confidence that we should be contending for wins the rest of the year." "We got the notes from last year, and we have a couple races under our belts now," Michael Faccinto said. "A top-five run with the stout NARC field that is following the series this year would be a good run for our team." Entering the event as the defending Anthony Simone Classic winner is Fremont's Shane Golobic after taking home the $10,000 check last year. The Matt Wood Racing pilot has also podiumed in five of his last six NARC feature starts at Hanford. Keller Auto Speedway is tied for the second winningest track on Tim Kaeding's extensive NARC resumé. Nine of TK's 71 career feature wins have come in Hanford. While the San Jose driver hasn't visited victory lane there since 2013, he has finished fourth or better in seven of his last nine series starts. Dominic Scelzi has won a NARC feature event at Keller Auto Speedway in each of the last two years. Last year during Scelzi's 22 overall feature win season, six of those came at Hanford. Campbell native Bud Kaeding has chalked up four series victories in Hanford. In fact, three of his first four NARC wins came at Keller Auto Speedway. Kaeding hasn't visited NARC victory lane there since 2012 but does own a steady record as of late with six top-10s in his last eight starts. A driver still seeking his first Keller Auto Speedway triumph is 11-time NARC feature winner Justin Sanders. Though the Aromas racer is still in search of that inaugural victory, he's been remarkably consistent in Hanford with three top-fives in four series starts last year, two of those being podium runs. One of Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr.'s two NARC top-fives from 2021 came at Keller Auto Speedway in the Simone, and he's hoping for a similarly strong effort to bounce back from a tough opening outing at Stockton with Vertullo Motorsports. Also expected to compete are Hanford's D.J. Netto, Benicia's Billy Aton, Idaho's Logan Forler, Lincoln's Tanner and Blake Carrick, Oregon's Tanner Holmes, Washington's Colby Thornhill, and more! Fan & Competitor Info The NARC Hoosier Tire format will feature ARP Fast Time Qualifying, Brown & Miller Racing Solutions 5-lap Heat Races, an eight-lap Sunnyvalley Bacon Trophy Dash, a Kaeding Performance Semi, the 30-lap Fujitsu Feature and the special 20-lap wingless Fujitsu Feature The pit gate will open at 1:00 P.M. with the front gate following at 4:00 P.M. The driver's meeting will take place at 4:30 P.M. Cars will be on track for wheel pack/hot laps at 5:00 P.M., and racing will begin around 6:00 P.M. The new and already popular Pete's Pub will be from 4:30-5:30 P.M. and allow fans without pit passes the opportunity to enjoy a small section of the pit area with food and drinks being sold..

  NARC NEWSLINE - March 30, 2022

  NARC NEWSLINE - March 30, 2022 - By Jim Allen ... In today's racing world, the offseason seems to get shorter and shorter. It goes something like this: You wave the checkered at the final event, you stage an awards banquet, you wolf down some Turkey, negotiate a schedule, exchange some Christmas presents, set some New Year's resolutions, buy some flowers for Valentines Day ... and BAMM ... it's racing season again. The turnaround barely allows enough time to dial in the details. And that applies whether you are a sprint car team, a track promoter, a sponsor, or a racing organization like us. But like almost every reality show, everybody seems to step up their game when there is a pressing deadline, like a NARC Fujitsu General USA Sprint Car season opener. With that in mind, here is a hit list of topics you may want to know about as you dial in your travel details: 2022 NARC SCHEDULE: For those of you perpetually stuck watching TikTok videos, there was a recent announcement regarding the 2022 Louie Vermeil Classic. There was bad news and good news. The bad news was that HMC Promotions announced that the awesome two-day event will not be run in 2022. A Chico-sequel didn't make financial sense and Calistoga Speedway hasn't reopened yet. The good news is that Tommy Hunt & Company are actively working to drive the process to get Calistoga Speedway open again with a full slate of events in 2023. There is a SAVE CALISTOGA SPEEDWAY campaign that could use your help. At this point, you race fans only have two choices: Condos ... or ... the best half-mile race track in California. I'll take Calistoga Speedway for $500 Alex. Log in to help HERE! If you do the math the same way as I do, that means the official NARC campaign will consist of 25 racing events in 2022. We will not be replacing the Labor Day dates with another venue. When you add it all up, the NARC Sprint Cars will be racing for more than $800,000 in purse money, cash awards and product contingencies. That's a huge WIN! BANG FOR THE BUCK: The Fastest Four Days in Motorsports just got more interesting. How interesting? How about $40,000 interesting in the form of a potential bonus to any driver who can sweep all four of the events. The Lloyd's of London insurance policy is betting against the house on this one, figuring a lot that can happen at three different tracks in four consecutive days. Let's hope the stars line up for one of our drivers to do the "happy dance" in Grays Harbor Raceway's victory lane on May 29th. There is also a possible step-down bonus. If a driver picks off three of the four shows, they can pocket an extra $5000 from Mr. Lloyds of London. (NOTE: It's one, or the other, not both.) For those needing a refresher, the four races are at Southern Oregon Speedway on Thursday, May 26th, followed by a Friday show at Willamette Speedway, and the May 28th and 29th shows at Grays Harbor. For win-list comparison purposes, the 2019 version of the FFDM produced four different winners. The 2021 edition produced three. As of right now, we have 15 California teams committed to this adventure, plus several locals. Bob Montoya of Swift Metal Finishing has also kicked in an additional $500 to the team that can pass the most cars during those four races. That is on top of the regular Hardcharger Award that he sponsors to the tune of $150 per night. Throw in travel money for California teams and some healthy purses and it should be a great Memorial Day weekend. By the way, there will be a race car hauler "Salute to the Red, White & Blue Parade" down main street in Elma, WA between the two-day newly-labeled FFDM Timber Cup shows Grays Harbor. For those of you who haven't been there, Elma's sort of a "one stop light" kind of town (pop, 3300 or so) where the population triples on race day. The parade is Sunday. All NARC teams will be herded out of the pits to a high noon staging area at the Elma High School parking lot. It will dish up a nice dose of small-town Americana. WHAT IF?: California continues to be the hotbed for great young open wheel talent. Unfortunately for us, that talent gets recognized on a national level and with a blink of an eye, they are gone. Just think what California 410 sprint car racing would be today if the likes of Buddy Kofoid, Gio Scelzi, Mitchell Moles, Cole Macedo were weekly warriors. Can't fault any of them, because they are "living the dream." Congrats to Giovanni on his two CA Outlaw wins. Keep your eyes on 16-year-old's Joel Myers Jr. and Max Mittry! NARC STUFF: Here is an unusual moment in California sprint car history: Two of the biggest powerhouses in NARC motorsports ... Roth Motorsports & Tarlton Motorsports are entering the 2022 campaign with drivers who have only three career NARC victories between them. How is that even possible? Don't expect that to last very long though, because their drivers and equipment are really good. To date, Mitchell Faccinto has parked it three times in NARC victory lane and Australian Kerry Madsen is basically making his first foray on the NARC campaign. That is the same 50-year-old Kerry Madsen who has 28 World of Outlaw wins on his impressive resume'. The Roth cars are powered by Toyota-powerplants. If you are a betting man, take the "over" at six wins this season for the Roth's and Tarltons. ... It's going to be nice to see Justyn "Indiana" Cox a few more times this year with NARC.

  NARC SPRINT CARS OPEN 2022 SEASON AT STOCKTON SATURDAY

  (3/28/22) Sacramento, CA ... The high-powered NARC Fujitsu General Sprint Cars will embark on their 63rd season this Saturday, April 2nd at Stockton Dirt Track's $6,000 to win Asparagus Cup. It will mark NARC's 21st visit to Stockton since the central valley facility opened in 2013. The three-eighths mile will be the busiest track on the 2022 calendar with the Third Annual Asparagus Cup slated to be the first of four trips this year. Joining the West Coast's premier 410 sprint car series will be the Legends of Kearney Bowl and the NorCal Dwarf Cars. Who to Watch The title defense will begin this weekend for 2021 series champion Dominic Scelzi of Fresno, and the venue may be the ideal location for the "Dominator." With three victories, Scelzi is the winningest series driver through 20 races at Stockton and also owns top-fives in his five of his last seven starts. 2019 titlist, D.J. Netto of Hanford, has a wildly consistent recent record at Stockton. In his last nine series races, he's finished no worse than fourth leading to a 2.8 average finish over that span. Netto also claimed the 2021 season opener at Stockton. San Jose's Tim Kaeding will begin his hunt for a third series championship at a track that's been very kind to him. In nine NARC starts at Stockton, Kaeding owns a pair of wins and six podium finishes. Although Shane Golobic of Elk Grove has only scored a pair of NARC wins at Stockton, he is always contending for the top spot. Now teamed with Roth Motorsports, Australian Kerry Madsen plans to be at the season opener and should be an immediate contender. While he hasn't made a NARC start at Stockton, he's contested half a dozen World of Outlaws feature events and come away with five top-10s and a victory. He has 28 World of Outlaw national wins to his credit. Eight-time NARC feature winner, Willie Croft, would love to open his 2022 campaign with a momentum-building win as he pursues his first title. He's yet to earn a NARC win at Stockton, but Croft has been strong with four runner-ups to his credit at the central valley facility. Though he doesn't own a NARC victory at Stockton, Hanford's Mitchell Faccinto has shown consistency in his 13 NARC appearances at the track with 11 top-10s and a best finish of second in June of 2016. He is driving the 2022 campaign for the potent Fresno-based Tarlton Motorsports team. Also expected to compete are Campbell's Bud Kaeding, Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr., Benicia's Billy Aton, Hanford's Michael Faccinto, Clovis' Sean Watts, Aromas' Justin Sanders, Iowa's Austin McCarl, Idaho's Logan Forler, Tanner Holmes from Oregon, and more. Fan & Competitor Info The NARC-King of the West Hoosier Tire format will feature ARP Fast Time Qualifying, Brown and Miller Racing Solutions 8-lap Heat Races, a 6-lap Sunnyvalley Bacon Trophy Dash, a Kaeding Performance Semi if necessary and the Fujitsu General USA 30-lap Feature. The pit gates will open at 1:00 P.M. with the main gate set to follow at 4:00 P.M. The driver's meeting will also begin at 4:00 P.M. followed by wheel pack at 4:30 P.M.

  Johns Wins Wild Hobby Stock Race At Antioch Speedway

  Antioch CA...March 26...Ken Johns won the 25 lap Pacific Coast General Engineering Hobby Stock Main Event Saturday night at Antioch Speedway. Johns was rebounding from a night of mechanical issues at the opener for the class a couple of weeks ago, and he benefited from the misfortune of Brad Coelho and Grayson Baca. Breck Smith led the opening lap before pushing high in Turn 2 and surrendering the point to Coelho. Reigning champion Larry McKinzie Jr took up pursuit of Coelo early on, but it was Baca taking the runner up spot on Lap 12. A Lap 13 restart provided Baca the opportunity to steal the lead from Coelho. Coelho stayed tough in the battle, but things got a bit wild on Lap 18 when contact sent Coelho and Baca spinning. Johns suddenly found himself leading Angela Brown on the restart, and they ran that way until Coelho made a low pass in Turn 4 on Lap 24 to gain second. However, Coelho ran out of time as Johns brought it home a happy winner. Brown settled for her best ever finish in third, followed by Michaela Taylor and Baca. Danny Wagner won the 20 lap Delta Dwarf Car Main Event. This was the second-straight win for the two-time division champion. David Rosa took the early lead ahead of Eric Weisler. Chance Russell slipped past Weisler for second on Lap 3, but he surrendered the position to Wagner on a Lap 6 restart. Wagner chased Rosa until a Lap 10 restart gave him an opportunity to take the lead. Devan Kammermann followed Wagner into second, but he lost that position to Jack Haverty on a Lap 12 restart. Once Wagner got the lead, nobody was going to stop him as he won ahead Haverty, who barely held of Weisler for the second position. Russell and Kammermann completed the Top 5. Petaluma Speedway Super Stock champion Randy Miramontez won the 20 lap Mini Stock Main Event. Miramontez started out running Mini Stocks at Petaluma Speedway before moving up to Super Stocks, and this was his return. Dana Gardner jumped into the early lead in the race that was destined to go non-stop. Reigning Antioch and Petaluma champion Tom Brown settled into second on Lap 2 and made an inside move on the back stretch on Lap 5 to take the lead from Gardner. Miramontez found his way into second on Lap 9 and quickly started pressuring Brown. A low pass in Turn 2 of the 13th lap gained Miramontez the lead. The lead duo had to split a lapped car in the middle at that point, but everybody made it safely. Despite a scary incident in traffic with two laps to go, Miramontez kept his cool and held off Brown for the win. Gardner ended up third, followed by Shan Titman and Eddie Humphrey III. Mitch Enos won the 15 lap California Sharp Mini Late Model Main Event. This was the debut for the class at Antioch. Matt Malcolm jumped into the lead at the start ahead of Enos. Malcolm pulled away a little bit for the first few laps, but Enos closed in by the midway point of the race. A low pass in Turn 4 on Lap 12 put Enos into the lead, and Malcolm spun in the same turn a lap later for a yellow flag. Enos led the restart, and Malcolm spun again in Turn 4 trying to make a pass. Enos won ahead of DJ Saenz and Malcolm. Racing resumes next Saturday night with IMCA Modifieds back in action along with IMCA Sport Modifieds, Pacific Coast General Engineering Hobby Stocks and Super Stocks.

  2022 NARC FUJITSU GENERAL USA SPRINT CAR SERIES SEASON PREVIEW

  (3/25/22 - Alex Nieten) Sacramento, CA ... Less than two weeks remain before the historic NARC Fujitsu General USA Sprint Cars embark on their 63rd season, and an interesting silly season coupled with the largest schedule in many years have created many storylines to follow throughout 2022. The Schedule With 25 races on the calendar, NARC is set for its most events since 2007. The series will travel to 13 tracks across the three West Coast states, California, Oregon, and Washington. The farthest southern point on the schedule is Bakersfield's Kern County Raceway Park, and the most northern point nearly reaches the Canadian border at Alger, Washington's Skagit Speedway. Between those two facilities are nearly 1100 miles, and NARC will travel all around that space from the April 2nd season opener at Stockton Dirt Track to the finale on November 5th also hosted by Stockton. The trips to the Pacific Northwest will be the first for the series in a decade, the most recent visit being a 2012 race at Southern Oregon Speedway won by Tim Kaeding. Championship Hangover? Fresno's Dominic Scelzi is coming off what he's commonly referred to as a "dream season" in 2021 that he punctuated with his first NARC title. The 24-year-old delivered one of the most dominant seasons in series history and had the championship wrapped up before the final event of the year. Scelzi will look to defend his crown in 2022. A key element to his title campaign will also return as Jimmy Carr enters his third year with Scelzi Motorsports. Scelzi credits Carr for elevating his performance to new heights as the reigning champ nearly doubled his career sprint car win tally last year, adding 22 triumphs to his pre-2021 count of 27. In NARC competition, Scelzi has won at seven of the 13 tracks featured on the 2022 schedule, but he hasn't had an opportunity to make a series start at a handful of the tracks due to the recent absence of the Pacific Northwest dates that have returned. Scelzi owns some 360 starts at the Oregon and Washington facilities including two wins in three nights at last year's Dirt Cup at Skagit Speedway. Back to the Top? The 2019 champion, D.J. Netto, slipped slightly in performance in 2021, coming home second in points with a victory, nine top-fives and 16 top-10s. Though the Hanford native is scaling back his racing calendar as his responsibility at the family business increases, Netto still intends to take on the full NARC tour in search of title number two. Netto has become one of the most consistent forces of the NARC roster over the past several years, earning top-10s in more than 85% of his series starts since the beginning of 2016. After the runner-up finish last year, the 26-year-old is motivated to get back to the top of the standings and claim a second championship. Brotherly Battles Last year brothers Tim Kaeding and Bud Kaeding finished up third and fourth in the final standings, and the duo hope to occupy the top two slots in 2022. Two-time series champion Tim returns to the seat of the Bates-Hamilton Racing No. 42X. TK picked up a pair of victories, the 70th and 71st of his career, last season aboard the machine and narrowly missed the runner-up spot in the standings. The West Coast legend put together the longest streak of top-10s in 2021, stacking 11 straight from July to October. Between NARC and World of Outlaws starts, Tim may have the advantage over the field on the two northern swings with many more laps in a 410 around the Pacific Northwest ovals. He already owns series victories at both Southern Oregon Speedway and Cottage Grove Speedway. Bud Kaeding and Tim Kaeding with both be championship contenders in 2022![/caption] Early on in 2021, younger brother Bud looked like he might match Tim's title count of two. After finishing seventh in the season opener, BK collected five consecutive top-fives highlighted by a pair of runner-ups at Petaluma and Watsonville. The hot streak gave him the points lead, but a crash at the Howard Kaeding Classic began to derail the season. Bud consistently finished in the top-10 through the second half of the year, but he and the BK Racing team couldn't find the speed they had early on. Bud will be back aboard his family's iconic No. 69 BK Racing machine for 2022. With plenty of experience and victories on the West Coast, Bud is always a favorite for the championship. The Faccinto brother's, Mitchell and Michael, are both set to tackle the full season for the first time. The duo shook up silly season with announcements revealing that Mitchell would head to Tarlton Motorsports to wheel the No. 21 with Michael handling driving duties on the Mike Phulps owned No. 56. Though they're brothers and a similar age, their racing histories with NARC are quite different. Mitchell owns 90 career series starts since debuting in 2013 and has earned top-10s in over half of them along with three victories. Michael, a micro and midget ace, only has two series starts to his credit, though he has spent considerable time behind the wheel of a 360-sprint car over the past few years. Oddly enough, Michael has made one more NARC start than Mitchell in their current rides. Mitchell is set to debut with Tarlton while Michael's lone 2021 appearance came aboard Phulps' machine. Same Faces, New Places At Petaluma Speedway in May of last year, 15-year-old Joel Myers Jr. made his presence felt with his first series podium. The top-three came in just his second career NARC start and aboard his family-owned ride. He went on to compete in 16 of the 21 features and picked up four more top-10s along the way. This season, the rising talent has been hired to wheel the Vertullo Motorsports No. 83V, and they have prioritized the NARC campaign. Joel Myers Jr. will be looking to score his first ever NARC feature victory aboard David Vertullo's #83V sprint car. Photo by Joe Shivak[/caption] The Vertullo ride has helped produced some of the sport's best with names like Kyle Larson, Brad Sweet and Chuck Gurney getting behind the wheel early in their careers, and Myers Jr. is looking to add his name to the list. After not completing a full NARC season in a handful of years, Vertullo returned in 2021 with veteran Sean Becker as his pilot and earned the fifth position in points. The pairing picked up a popular win last summer in the Howard Kaeding Classic. With the knowledge of the impressive list of names to precede him in the 83V, Myers Jr. is filled with excitement to take his turn and potentially become the youngest champion in series history. NARC's second winningest driver of 2021, Justin Sanders, is heading to Mittry Racing to pilot the No. 2. Last year the Aromas native began the tour aboard Larry Antaya's car and picked up an early win at Petaluma. Sanders sat out a double-header weekend in July but came back in a new ride for the Fastest Four Days in Motorsports. Sanders hopped in the Kevin Kozlowski-owned and Paul Silva-prepared Works Limited No. 57 and won in his debut in the car at Merced. The partnership went on to claim four of the final 12 races of the season as Sanders nearly doubled his career NARC win total, jumping to 11 after starting the year with six. Sanders wrapped up his 2021 by turning some impressive results in the Mittry machine. The team traveled to Arizona for four ASCS regional events and came away with podiums in three of them. Sanders has already won in his new ride this year in Silver Dollar Speedway's season opening 360 sprint car race, the Silver Cup. Sophomore Slump or Success? After having made only nine NARC starts over three years prior to 2021, Billy Aton followed the entire tour last year and came home with rookie of the year honors after finishing sixth in points. He'll be back this season with hopes of improving a few spots in the standings. The highlight of Aton's campaign came in July at Santa Maria Raceway when he started on the pole and led all 30 laps en route to his inaugural NARC victory in his 18th series start. Last season, Aton continually proved his ability to move forward in the main event, passing more than 100 cars in the feature over the course of the season. However, he struggled in qualifying which often left him starting near the back in the A-main, necessitating a charge through the field. Aton and the team are prioritizing a better qualifying program this year, hoping for better starting spots on the feature grid leading to more finishes toward the front. Taking Another Swing Savvy veteran Willie Croft intends to tackle the entire NARC tour with his sights on his first title. The Colfax native has competed over the full schedule five times before with a best result of third in the standings back in 2007. Croft has been one of the most consistent forces over his roughly two decades of wheeling sprint cars, having tallied eight victories, more than 50 top-fives, and over 100 top-10s with the West Coast's premier 410 series. Mega Watts The pilot of his family-owned Billet America No. 98, Sean Watts, plans to take on the entire NARC schedule again. The 26-year-old has collected 15 top-10s with the series in his career, highlighted by a 2019 win at Stockton, a facility with four dates on the 2022 NARC calendar. Regulars A handful of talented West Coast drivers plan to attend a majority of the NARC tour and are likely to pick up plenty of strong results when they do. Fremont's Shane Golobic tentatively plans to race all but one of the 25 scheduled events, the lone absence being the July Petaluma date. He's the owner of 13 career series wins and always a threat to park the Matt Wood Racing machine in victory lane. Though he missed a few events last season, Golobic still managed to notch the second most podiums and top-fives. Northern California will have a frequent visitor from down under this year in the form of Kerry Madsen. The 28-time World of Outlaws feature winner has partnered with Roth Motorsports to run a schedule consisting of a blend of West Coast and Midwest races. Turning the wrenches on the No. 83 will be fellow Australian Paul Baines, and with the Toyota Racing Development engine under the hood they plan to compete in nearly 20 NARC events. Another Australian, Jessie Attard, is in the process of loading his racing equipment into a shipping container for the journey to the Golden State. He plans to race a majority of the NARC schedule. Two-time NARC feature winner, Colby Copeland, will be back aboard the Larry Antaya No. 16A for his appearances this season, the same car he drove to those two victories. Last season, driving mostly for a joint effort between Jim and Annette Vanlare and Antaya, Copeland made seven series starts with top-10s in all of them, the highlight being four straight finishes of 8th or better in the Fastest Four Days in Motorsports resulting in a runner-up in FFDM points. Keller Motorsports pilot, J.J. Ringo, will contest over half of the schedule. The 32-year-old is shifting his focus toward 410 racing and will double his career start total with NARC this season. Last year, Ringo earned his first series podium after a resilient night at Santa Maria Raceway. The Carrick brothers hope to frequent NARC events this season. Both Tanner and Blake have made many appearances in the top-10 but are still seeking their first series victories. With more 410 engines in their shop and more 410 races on the schedule, it wouldn't be surprising to see them both collect their inaugural NARC wins. Last year Tanner picked up his first career NARC podium at the Howard Kaeding Classic, and that same night Blake notched his best series finish to date by running fourth. Iowa driver Austin McCarl will also race about half the NARC schedule aboard the Keith Offill 88 sprint car. He will be looking for his first NARC victory. Iowa driver Austin McCarl plans to drive Keith Offill's number 88 sprint car around the West Coast before embarking on a swing through the Midwest. He is still looking for his first NARC victory in California. Last year's 11th place finisher in the standings, Geoffrey Strole, plans to compete in a solid amount of NARC races. The highlight of his 2021 season came in July at The Thunderbowl when he drove from 18th to 10th to claim both his first top-10 of the season and Swift Metal Finishing Hardcharger award. Trying Something New After making a name for himself piling up ASCS regional trophies over the past several years, Logan Forler is diving more into 410 racing by making an attempt at a NARC title this year. The Idaho driver hasn't contested a NARC race since 2014, but he'll change that in a big way in 2022 by tackling all 25 events. In five career series starts Forler has earned two top-fives, one at Southern Oregon Speedway and one at Placerville Speedway. A more common sight at NARC events in 2022 will be Chase Johnson. After not competing in a single race last year, the two-time NARC feature winner plans to run more than half of this season's schedule. Johnson has many wingless and midget wins on his resumé, and the versatile driver will look to tally a few more with a wing this year. Let's Go Racing The many storylines entering 2022 have been laid out, and now the only thing left to do is watch how they unfold over the course of seven months and 25 races.
