  GO BRIGGS OR GO HOME! DANNER DOMINATES CIRCLE CITY SALUTE

  For Briggs Danner, Circle City Raceway just seemed to be one of those places that he couldn’t connect with over the years in USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship competition. Yet, during Thursday night’s Circle City Salute Presented by Desnuda Tequila, Danner found the Indianapolis, Indiana 1/4-mile dirt oval to his liking, much thanks to a monster curb that bit others, but was one that Danner’s car found bite on.

  Thornton Denies O'Neal for Circle City Victory on Friday Night

  INDIANAPOLIS, IN (May 1, 2026) - Ricky Thornton Jr. tracked down race-long leader Hudson O'Neal and made the winning pass on lap 41, then held on to capture his second Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing victory of the season Friday night at Circle City Raceway. Thornton's 58th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win earned him $15,000 in the Series' second-ever visit to the Indianapolis facility. O'Neal finished second, with Max Blair rounding out the Big River Steel podium in third. Mike Marlar finished fourth, followed by Devin Moran in fifth. Starting sixth, Thornton now moves into a tie with Brandon Sheppard for fourth in the championship standings heading into Saturday's event at Florence Speedway. "I felt like we had a really good car all night, but I just couldn't quite get it going early. In the feature, everything came together," said the Chandler, Arizona native. "Watching midget and sprint car races here, you know how technical the top can be and that the bottom will eventually come in. Max (Blair) was strong down there, and after that caution, when Marlar chose the bottom, I knew I had to make my move." "I got by Max on the restart, and once I cleared Mikey (Marlar), I felt like I had a shot at Hudson. I knew it might take lapped traffic to slow him down, and it worked out for us." With his runner-up finish, O'Neal is now tied with Moran for the championship points lead heading into the Ralph Latham Memorial at Florence Speedway. "It was probably better not to be the leader at the end," O'Neal said. "Ricky was really good late in the race. He probably saved his tires better than I did and was able to move around more. When you're leading, you're kind of stuck picking a lane and hoping it holds. No excuses—we're happy to finish second, even though it's tough to lead that long and get passed late." Blair continued his strong run, recording his ninth consecutive top five finish. "The restart where Ricky got by me actually helped me a bit," Blair said. "I knew once Marlar picked the bottom on that last restart, it was going to be tough to hold those guys off. It was a lot of fun racing with Ricky for as long as we did." Thornton's winning Koehler Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and backed by Hoker Trucking, Knight's Companies, Coltman Farms Racing, Capital Waste, Strange Oval, Certified Inspection Services, Sunoco Race Fuels, and SI Towing and Recovery. Completing the top ten were Dan Ebert, Josh Rice, Brandon Sheppard, Brandon Overton, and Carson Ferguson.
