The California based Winged Sprint Car series is set to contest its eighth overall season, which offers another exciting slate of races up and down the West Coast. "The Sprint Car Challenge Tour looks to be in for another entertaining season," commented President Scott Russell. "We did our best to work around other schedules and avoid conflicts. Some years are better than others regarding that. With how things came together on the calendar though, we know there are a few conflicts this year between the various series and tracks. When you look at it from March to November however, fans and teams have plenty of great racing to choose from. We want to send a huge thank you to Elk Grove Ford, Hoosier Tire and all the partners that make this tour possible." The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour will compete in a total of 16 events, which gets underway with the March 29th "Thrill on the Hill," marking the first of three appearances at Placerville Speedway. The tour returns to Placerville on Friday May 30th for the inaugural "Davy Thomas Memorial," which acts as a prelude to the following nights Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial featuring the NARC 410s. SCCT will also compete at the red clay on July 19th as part of Speedweek. Continuing to rise in popularity among fans and teams is Merced Speedway, which is back on the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour schedule. California's top Winged 360 Sprint Car teams will invade the high-banked quarter mile on Saturday April 19th. The Petaluma Speedway plays host to a pair of Sprint Car Challenge Tour events in 2025. Those dates will occur on June 14th with an event dubbed as "Wings Over Wine Country" and September 20th, as SCCT sanctions the $5,000-to-win "Adobe Cup" for the fourth consecutive season. The Sprint Car Challenge Tour will again sanction the 25th annual "Mel and Marlyn Hall Memorial" held on Memorial Day weekend. This year's event takes place on Sunday May 25th, as part of a busy holiday weekend in Nor-Cal. The always challenging and popular Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare hosts the SCCT 360s for the "Trophy Cup Tune-Up" on Saturday October 4th. The show held two weeks before the 31st Trophy Cup gives teams one final chance at track time prior to the big weekend. For the second straight season the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour will embark upon Western Sprint Tour Speedweek, which gets even bigger in 2025. The overall Speedweek champion will claim $4,000 with the runner up receiving $2,500 and third place getting $1,500. All main events are a guaranteed $3,000-to-win/ $400-to-start. All the action launches at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico on Friday July 18th with the annual "Tyler Wolf Memorial," followed by the $5,000-to-win/ $500-to-start "Gold Pan Rampage" at Placerville Speedway on Saturday July 19th. A travel day will be held on Sunday, before action resumes at the Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Oregon on Monday July 21st. Speedweek heads for the coast on Tuesday with a date at the beautiful Coos Bay Speedway on July 22nd and continues north to Cottage Grove Speedway on Wednesday July 23rd. Another travel day with a Fan Fest/ Kick-Off Party on Thursday sets up the SCCT debut at Skagit Speedway in Alger, Washington for the two-night "360 Summer Nationals" highlighted by a $26,000-to-win/ $600-to-start main event on Saturday. Speedweek all culminates with the "Hall of Fame Tribute-360 Battle Royale" on Sunday July 27th at Gray's Harbor Raceway in Elma, Washington. "I really want to thank the staff at Skagit Speedway for coming on board and working with us on Western Sprint Tour Speedweek," said Russell. "They are offering a great purse for the racers at the 360 Nationals, which should make for an outstanding weekend of racing. We're excited to visit Skagit and Elma for the first time with SCCT, as well as visit all the tracks that are a part of the week." Jon Hager with Skagit Speedway also shared his sentiments. "We are excited to collaborate with Scott and Kami to bring SCCT to Skagit Speedway. The 360 Summer Nationals will certainly benefit from the addition of several cars from down south and such talented drivers. The partnership has the potential to elevate an already great scene of 360 Sprint Car racing in the Pacific Northwest for years to come. We look forward to building a long-term relationship with the SCCT series." As is the norm, the Stockton Dirt Track wraps up the SCCT campaign with the "Tribute to Gary Patterson Part II" on Saturday November 8th. The event is part of an expanded two-week run for the GP race, which includes the NARC finale now taking place one week earlier.

- NARC SPRINT CARS ANNOUNCE 2025 SCHEDULE
(12/9/24 - Jim Allen) Auburn, CA ... The Northern Auto Racing Club (NARC) has released a compelling 29-race 410 sprint car schedule for the 2025 season that is loaded with special events and prize money. The traveling west coast series, which crowns a King of the West sprint car champion, will invade 16 different dirt oval tracks in California, Oregon, and Washington, beginning with a March 8th season opener at the Stockton Dirt Track.

The "Road to the Dirt Cup" continues the following weekend with the June 19-21st Jim Raper Super Dirt Cup at Skagit Speedway. The winner of that Saturday finale will earn a stout $62,000 payday. Another energizing highlight on the calendar is the return of Calistoga Speedway and the ever-popular Louis Vermeil Classic on August 30-31st. The historic half-mile oval, located in the heart of Napa Valley's wine-country, has been dormant since 2019 due to political log jam on a sale of the facility. HMC Promotions is currently collaborating with local contractors to renovate the facility before racing action returns.

Antioch Speedway hosts the first of two events on May 10th, which leads into an action-packed Ocean Speedway/Thunderbowl Raceway doubleheader weekend on May 16-17th. The Tulare show is the lucrative Morrie Williams Memorial Twin-20 show, an event that was relocated from Kings Speedway in Hanford. Kings Speedway is still searching for a track promoter and is not on the 2025 schedule. Placerville Speedway is on the schedule twice in 2025, beginning with the popular Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial on May 31st. The series returns to the quarter-mile bullring on September 6th between the High Limit and World of Outlaw swings into the Golden State. Four July events sidestep the summer heat in California with premium coastal events within 15-miles of the Pacific Ocean. The "cooler weather" tour kicks off with the July 12th $5200 to win David Lindt Memorial at Petaluma Speedway. Race fans will also be excited to hear that the popular Howard Kaeding Classic at Ocean Speedway will now be a two-day 410 show on July 18-19th. Among Saturday's highlights is the HK Luncheon, which raises money for the NARC Benevolent Fund, and a $6900 to win, $1000+ to start feature event.

- JUSTIN SANDERS CLAIMS EXCITING FINALE AT STOCKTON; AND THE NARC CHAMPIONSHIP
(11/2/24 - Ben Deatherage) Stockton, CA ... Justin Sanders passed Cole Macedo with only two-laps remaining to win the thrilling 30-lap Tribute to Gary Patterson season finale and 2024 NARC 410 Sprint Car Series championship at the Stockton Dirt Track. This was the second time Sanders has won this prestigious event. Starting eighth in the 20-car grid, the Mittry Motorsports driver put the Farmers Brewing Company #2X KPC in victory lane for the seventh time this season to earn the 2024 title. Entering the event, Sanders led Macedo by a slim three-points margin. The final spread was only six-points. Rolling from the pole, Beacon Wealth Strategies dash winner Tim Kaeding was the class of the field, building huge 10-car leads, despite a couple of caution periods that slowed the action. However, the race took an unexpected turn when Kaeding's right rear tire began to lose pressure with ten laps to go. This sudden twist of events brought the two championship contenders, Macedo and Sanders, who were tailgating in second and third, hot on his heels. Kaeding fought valiantly until lap 27, when the tire let go, handing the lead to Macedo. The new leader seemed to be cruising towards a much needed victory until Sanders made a daring move to overtake the Tarlton Motorsports fielded Tarlton & Son #21 Maxim on lap 29. Macedo fought back but Sanders answered the challenge to secure the 20th series victory and the championship. "Tim was the class of the field all night," said Sanders in victory lane. "He did a good job with the low tire and kept up some fast speed. He's such a veteran driver, winning a lot of races and knows how to keep the car going, I honestly thought that when that red came out (on lap 20) this race was over because I figured Cole knew where to go." Macedo was a valiant runner-up despite his best efforts. At the same time, Shane Golobic wound up third in the NOS Energy Drink #17W KPC for Matt Wood Racing. NARC rookie Dominic Gorden secured a solid fourth-place result in the Gary Silva Ranches #10 KPC. Completing the top five would be the California Waterfowl #83T Maxim piloted by Tanner Carrick. Rookie Caeden Steele, showed his mettle by starting 16th and finishing sixth, earning him the Williams Roofing Hardcharger award. Nick Parker, Justyn Cox, Billy Aton, and Gauge Garcia rounded out the top ten. The heat race winners were Golobic, Macedo, and Dylan Bloomfield. Kyle Beilman and Max Mittry were both involved in red-flag incidents but were both unharmed.

Stockton, CA…What started in April will come to a grand conclusion this Saturday when the Sprint Car Challenge Tour tackles the Stockton Dirt Track for the 41st annual "Tribute to Gary Patterson." The November 2nd showdown will be a can't miss affair with both the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour and the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series crowning champions in the unique Stockton victory corral.

Plenty of camping is available on the fairgrounds for those who want to make a weekend out of it. "We look forward to GP weekend this Friday and Saturday," said Stockton Dirt Track Promoter Tony Noceti. "We continue doing work on this track to try and give teams the best possible surface. Alan Handy has been here massaging it and I feel like we should have two great nights of racing." Andy Forsberg heads into Saturday hoping to wrap up his second Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour title. If he can do so, it would mark championship 28 for the Auburn driver. Forsberg claimed a SCCT victory at the Adobe Cup in Petaluma and looks to finish off the season in that same fashion. El Cajon resident Braden Chiaramonte goes into Stockton gunning to lock up second in the standings, as well as the Garth Moore Insurance Rookie of the Year Award. The 17-year-old has been impressive this year while gaining laps with the Tiner-Hirst Ent. team.

Completing the top-10 heading into the season finale are Yuba City's Seth Standley, Aromas' Justin Sanders, Roseville's Colby Copeland, Hanford's Michael Faccinto and Roseville's Sean Becker. Sanders recorded a clean sweep during the only other SCCT appearance in Stockton this season and has captured the last two Tribute to Gary Patterson main events with the tour.

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.

- NARC CHAMPIONSHIP FINALE BRINGS SPRINT CARS TO STOCKTON DIRT TRACK FOR TRIBUTE TO GP
(10/28/24 - Ben Deatherage) Stockton, California ... On Saturday, November 2nd, all roads for the NARC King of the West championship led to the 41st Annual Tribute to Gary Patterson at the Stockton Dirt Track. This highly anticipated event, marking the end of the 65th Anniversary season for the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series, is the last chance for fans to witness the awe-inspiring, fire breathing, 900+ horsepower machines that define the series. "We are always proud to host the NARC and SCCT sprint cars at the season finale," said promoter Tony Noceti. "Not only are they bringing the best open wheel racing on the west coast, but their championships will be decided at the Stockton Dirt Track." The Tribute to Gary Patterson is not just an event, it's a cornerstone tradition of the NARC 410 Sprint Series. Gary Patterson, one of the original 'true Outlaws,' left an indelible mark on the sport, winning the Gold Cup at West Capital Speedway and the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Ascot, both in 1977 and Skagit Speedway's storied Super Dirt Cup in 1973. His legacy lives on through this event, which honors his memory and contributions to sprint car racing. Since 1984, there has been a Tribute To GP, which began at Calistoga until 2007. Silver Dollar Speedway was honored to have the race from 2008 to 2012. The Stockton Dirt Track has been the home of the event since 2013 and, from 2017 to the present, has been the championship event for the NARC 410 Sprint Series. Steve Kent and Brent Kaeding have the most wins in the event, with four each. Roseville's Justyn Cox who drives for the Bates-Hamilton Racing Team is one of many teams looking to get in victory lane. "I love Stockton, it's close to home. It's kind of a home track for me, and Tony Noceti works hard, and he is doing his best to make it a great racetrack. I appreciate that we have a promoter that's willing to stick his neck out there like he does." The companion division for the night will be the Sprint Car Challenge Tour 360 sprint cars and the Legends of Kearny Bowl. Championship Chase The battle for the King of the West championship has been nothing short of intense, with Justin Sanders and Cole Macedo locked in a nail-biting fight for the top spot throughout the season. The thrill of this competition is going to keep everyone on edge as a mere three points separate the two. That is the difference between winning and second place. Both drivers have won at the newly configured 1/4-mile clay oval on the two previous trips this season. Macedo won the Asparagus Cup in April, while Sanders was victorious at the Salute to LeRoy Van Connett in May. Driving the Mittry Motorsports #2X machine, Sanders, from Aromas, CA, won the Tribute to GP in 2022. He's accumulated three wins in 11 career NARC starts at Stockton. Macedo, representing Lemoore, aboard the Tarlton Motorsports #21 entry, has yet to finish outside the top five in NARC action since the track was reshaped last winter, with his worst performance being a fifth in May. Sanders occupied the podium twice in the doubleheader last weekend, with a second at Kern County Raceway and a third at the Anthony Simone Classic in Hanford. Macedo was involved in a hard crash at Kern that forced him to bow out early and surrender the point lead only to rebound spectacularly by winning the Simone at Kings Speedway. Who To Watch 2017 NARC champion Bud Kaeding wants to reenter Stockton's legendary winner's circle. The Campbell chauffeur has posted consistent results with sixth and seventh-place efforts on the smaller variety of the track. His most recent NARC win was at Stockton in August of 2019. Dylan Bloomfield hopes to grab his first-ever NARC victory for his car owners, Dave and Debbie Vertullo. The Oakley teenager was ninth in his last series appearance at "The Van Connett" in May. Shane Golobic has won twice on the old 3/8-mile of Stockton and hopes to add a "New Stockton Dirt Track" win to his impressive resume. The Fremont pilot of the Matt Wood Racing #17W has also won the Tribute to GP twice when he was triumphant in 2014 and 2019. Justyn Cox is happy to be back doing what he loves: racing Sprint Cars. Coming back from injury last weekend. The Roseville driver is hoping to deliver a strong finish after showing a lot of speed in the previous two trips to the track this year. The driver-team combination already has hit pay dirt this season with a victory at Oregon's Cottage Grove Speedway during the Fastest Five Days in Motorsports. For Fresno's Dominic Scelzi, this will be the first time he's been to the new Stockton with NARC. The two-time NARC champ did log some laps when the World of Outlaws were in town on September 6th. Scelzi has historically excelled at the old track, winning three times and has been consistently quick the last few weeks with the tour. Tim Kaeding has been a major storyline in 2024 with NARC, as he's shown he still possesses his jungle-cat quickness. The two-time series champion, hailing from San Jose, has cracked off a couple of wins in the last few shows with the Williams Motorsports #0 team. "TK" won the Tribute to GP in eight-year increments, 2008 and 2016. Will that trend continue? Not only is a series championship on the line but so is the title of Rookie of the Year. Easton's Caeden Steele leads the charge of the trio of youngsters battling in the NARC top ten. He was eighth at the Asparagus Cup in April. Fellow Rookies, Gauge Garcia from Lemoore and Clovis' Dominic Gorden will try their best to end the season on a solid note. In the Keller Motorsports #2K car, Garica has tenth and 11th place finishes at Stockton to his credit. Gorden was eighth the last time NARC was at Stockton, and it kicked off a positive trend of strong results for the young man. D.J. Netto of Hanford is another driver who has enjoyed a lot of success on the old configuration, with wins in 2021 and 2022, but is looking to score a win on the new one. The 2019 NARC champion was 16th at the Asparagus Cup in his only appearance at the track. In April, Nick Parker had a special moment when he managed to record his first career NARC top five. Finishing fifth at the Asparagus Cup, the Arizona transplant now residing in Chico is hopeful that another successful outing is in the cards. Journeying from Benicia, Billy Aton has some unfinished business at Stockton. Leading most of the first half of the Salute to LeRoy Van Connett, his engine stalled and caused a crash when it looked like another victory was in his grasp. Can he get on top of the podium to close out 2024? You will have to be there to find out. Fan & Competitor Info There will be a NARC champions autograph session taking place in front of the grandstands between 3:00 and 5:00.

- Stockton Dirt Track caps SCCT season on Saturday
What started in April will come to a grand conclusion this Saturday when the Sprint Car Challenge Tour tackles the Stockton Dirt Track for the 41st annual "Tribute to Gary Patterson."
- NARC CHAMPIONSHIP FINALE BRINGS SPRINT CARS TO STOCKTON DIRT TRACK FOR TRIBUTE TO GP
On Saturday, November 2nd, all roads for the NARC King of the West championship led to the 41st Annual Tribute to Gary Patterson at the Stockton Dirt Track. This highly anticipated event, marking the end of the 65th Anniversary season for the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series, is the last chance for fans to witness the awe-inspiring, fire breathing, 900+ horsepower machines that define the series.
- NARC SPRINT CARS DOUBLING UP WITH LATE SEASON STOPS AT KERN RACEWAY AND KINGS SPEEDWAY
(10/22/24 - Ben Deatherage) Bakersfield, CA ... The 65th Anniversary NARC 410 Sprint Car Series campaign is quickly winding down but will offer a fix of open wheel racing with a rare October doubleheader this weekend featuring shows at two different facilities. Fans will be treated to 900+ horsepower sprint car racing at Kevin Harvick's Kern County Raceway Park in Bakersfield on Friday, October 25th, for the October Classic. This show runs in conjunction with the ARCA stock car series, which will be practicing and qualifying on the neighboring half-mile paved oval earlier in the day. Then the show moves over to the dirt track. Kings Speedway in Hanford will cap the weekend with the Anthony Simone Classic on Saturday, the 26th. The Anthony Simone Classic, a race held in memory of the late Fresno-based driver, is a unique event in the NARC 410 Series. Known as 'Mr. Excitement,' the event is a celebration of Simone's spirited personality and legendary stories, both on and off the track. His iconic #10 machine and trademark mustache were synonymous with his racing career where he raced on both pavement and dirt. "Returning to my home track in Hanford, I believe we have a slight advantage due to the numerous laps I've run there," said Cole Macedo, the current NARC point leader. "We also had a strong performance at Kern last year, and I'm eager to tackle both tracks." Since its establishment in 2021, the Simone Classic has yet to have a repeat winner, with Shane Golobic, Rico Abreu, and Corey Day scoring wins. Complementing the NARC 410 Series at Kern County will be the Western Midget Racing series and the Southern California Dwarf Cars. The Kings of Thunder 360 Sprints and the Western RaceSaver Series 305 Sprints will join the card at Hanford. Championship Chase Cole Macedo brings a slim 11-point advantage into Bakersfield, a position he reclaimed after his victory at the Chris & Brian Faria Memorial on October 12th. Now back in the driver's seat of the championship chase for the NARC King of the West title, the Lemoore racer hopes to build a healthy cushion to ease the pressure of going into the November 2nd season finale at Stockton. "Ultimately, the goal is to have a big enough points lead where we can have some breathing room at Stockton," mentioned Macedo, "I'd love to have a little bit of a bubble to have a decent night and not worry about it, run really hard, and put it all on the line." In the lone NARC trip to Kings this season, Macedo piloted the Tarlton Motorsports #21 entry scored a pair of third place finishes during the Morrie William Memorial Twin 20s and won the event championship. His last journey to Kern ended with a fourth-place result, his career-best at the facility. On the other side of the battlefield is Justin Sanders. The Aromas driver is determined to bounce back big after a heartbreaking night at Tulare, which saw him bow out early due to mechanical problems. Something notable that favors the Mittry Motorsports #2X chauffeur is that he's achieved wins at both tracks. The last two times NARC has been to Hanford, both during the Williams Memorial weekend, Sanders has won. His lone winner's circle visit at Kern was on October 30th, 2021. While there is no doubt the chase for the King of the West championship has been a primary focus, the race for third in the table is also a hot contest between three competitors. 2017 NARC champion Bud Kaeding leads the trio, rustling for third in points. Representing Campbell, Kaeding has a streak of five consecutive Top 10 finishes. A winner at Kings in 2012, he boasts four top five's and a lone podium at Kern when he finished runner-up in 2019. Leading Rookie of the Year candidate Caeden Steele hopes to rebound from a tough night in Tulare a couple of weeks ago. Trailing Kaeding by 18 markers, the Easton driver will hope to carve his way to the podium in his remarkable campaign. At Kings at the beginning of the month, he was tenth and sixth in the Twin 20s of "The Morrie." He has never made an appearance at Kern. Completing the current top five in points, Oakley's Dylan Bloomfield is among several drivers hungry for his first career NARC feature. Aboard the Dave and Debbie Vertullo-owned #83V, he finished fourth and fifth in his last two series starts, with his previous venture to Kings producing a fifth-place result, and he was sixth in his most recent outing at Kern. He's 26 points behind Kaeding and just eight markers behind Steele. Who To Watch Shane Golobic, as noted, will be a driver to be on the lookout for. The Fremont pilot in the Matt Wood Racing #17W has had a fair share of success at both venues. His lone win at Hanford was the Simone Classic in '21, while he's collected three victories at KCRP, including one in 2021 and two in 2018. Two-time NARC champion Dominic Scelzi is also ready to rip at two tracks he's managed to succeed at over the years. The Fresno phenom swept the pair of NARC events at Kern in 2019 and has amassed an impressive win total of five visits to victory lane at Kings. Two other newcomers not to be discounted are Gauge Garcia and Dominic Gorden. Behind the wheel of the Keller Motorsports #2K, Garcia had an impressive third place at Kings, while his lone appearance at KCRP resulted in a 15th place finish. posting. Both results were from last year, but the young man from Lemoore finished eleventh in both Twin 20s for the Morrie Williams Memorial at Kings earlier in October. Dominic Gorden remains the only Rookie to have won a NARC main event this season. The young man from Clovis recently had his best run ever at Kings when he finished ninth in the second Twin 20 a few weeks ago, and in his only trip to Kern, he was seventh last year. A notable addition to the mix will be Justyn Cox, who steps back into the Bates-Hamilton Racing #42X entry after a hiatus due to an injury suffered at the Douglas County Dirt Track on August 26th with the High Limit Series. Before being sidelined, Cox picked up a win at Cottage Grove this season and was in contention for a victory at Santa Maria in late July. The Roseville racer has a good history with NARC at Hanford, including eight Top 10s in eleven career starts, including two podium finishes. 2019 NARC champion D.J. Netto is hopeful to earn his first series win of the season. It has not been for lack of trying. The Hanford native was a couple of laps away from doing so at Tulare in the most recent NARC event. Arizona transplant Nick Parker is looking to build off of what's been an incredible 2024 season. Now living in Chico, Parker has procured a pair of his first career top five results with NARC earlier this season. Benicia's Billy Aton is another NARC regular making the journey this weekend. He has three top ten finishes this season, with one coming at Kings. He has five top ten's at Kings, including a fifth-place finish in 2021.
