- Ebert Breaks Through with Topless 100 Triumph
LOCUST GROVE, AR (August 15, 2026) - Dan Ebert picked a great time to earn the first Super Late Model victory of his career, as the Lake Shore, Minnesota, driver won the 34th Annual Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging Topless 100 Presented by Big River Steel on Saturday night at Batesville Motor Speedway. The former snowmobile and open-wheel modified standout, who is in just his second year of Super Late Model competition, became the 18th different winner of the crown jewel event, which began in 1993. Ebert took home $50,000 and also earned his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory. Ebert also entered the event as a Steering Buddy Darkhorse, making his breakthrough victory even more notable. The label proved fitting on Saturday night as Ebert emerged from a deep field of established stars to capture one of dirt late model racing's marquee events. Ebert crossed the finish line 4.984 seconds ahead of two-time Topless 100 winners Dale McDowell and Jonathan Davenport. Clay Stuckey earned his best career finish in a crown jewel event with a fourth-place run, while Brandon Sheppard rounded out the top five. Ricky Thornton Jr. fired from the pole and led the first 52 laps virtually unchallenged despite several restarts. The car on the move was last week's Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100 champion, Josh Rice, who came from 22nd to second in his first Topless 100. Rice hounded Thornton for the lead before taking the top spot on lap 53. Rice then extended his lead to more than four seconds over Thornton before a caution came out on lap 58. On the restart, Thornton retook the lead from Rice, but it was short-lived as Rice stormed back past Thornton on lap 60. Rice then looked like the car to beat, leading through lap 88 before misfortune struck. As he exited turn four to complete lap 89, his right-rear tire went down, forcing a caution. On the lap-89 restart, Ebert, who had been running second to Rice after pitting during a caution on lap 38, inherited the lead and paced the final 12 laps to score the stunning victory. "This is unbelievable, really, to win our first Super Late Model race. We won that dash last week (at Florence), and we have had speed here. To win one of the biggest, hardest races to win is unbelievable. I am just speechless. It's just incredible, the crowd here. You know, we ran good here last year, and I just had a good feel for it, and we built on the setups since then," said Ebert, who led the final 12 laps of the race. "It's just so hard to know, particularly with all the tire trouble that was happening yesterday. It's just kind of the luck of it, honestly. You know, I tried to be as nice as I could and not slide, but we ended up having a tire go down, which probably was a blessing because we probably had something to race with at the end. I was just able to get the middle groove working on some of those restarts. It was a little touchy for sure. This is just unbelievable. This is just crazy. I am just speechless to be where I am for a year and a half, basically, driving a Super Late Model. I have come a long way. James Trantina, my car owner, took a chance on me and my team. A lot of blood and tears went into this." McDowell, who brought out the first caution of the race with 15 laps scored when his car ended up on the Jersey barrier in turn four, rallied through the field to finish second and earn $20,000. "We had some right-rear tire left. I had a right-front tire flat, so it started to get a little wheel spin down the straightaway. We were maybe one of the only ones who didn't pit. I was trying to be conservative on tires, and when I wheel-spun, Dan got by me. But those guys pitted about lap 34 or 35, I think, so they just had a little better tire. It was a good run for us. I got into trouble there early on. I got all boxed up and turned around. I was just being patient, and I was just racing my way back up through there. The car was really good in the middle, so I knew I really wasn't hurting tires as bad." Davenport, the 2025 winner, was looking to become the first driver to win the Topless 100 in back-to-back years. Several drivers have tried to accomplish the feat over the history of the event, but the streak will continue into 2027. "We just played the cards we were dealt there. I felt like we had a really good car there, thanks to my team. They did an excellent job battling through the heat, and especially thanks to these fans. It's tough sitting out there in the sun. I felt like I was really patient and that we had a car that could win. I was just kind of easing around there at the beginning and making sure I didn't go too hard. I didn't run the top much, really. I think I went there one time because I pushed up there. It's just a part of Batesville with the tires, you know. It's bit a lot of people, and some it hasn't." The winning James Trantina-owned Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and sponsored by Collins Brothers Towing of St. Cloud, Minnesota, Truck Headquarters, AMSOIL, Christiansen Group Insurance, Shaw Trucking, Fuel Factory, and Fox Shocks. Completing the top ten were Ricky Thornton Jr., Hudson O'Neal, Chris Ferguson, Brenden Smith, and Brandon Overton.

- Blair and Thornton Take Topless 100 Prelim Wins
LOCUST GROVE, AR (August 14, 2026) - Max Blair and Ricky Thornton Jr. each won their respective 25-lap preliminary feature Friday night during the opening night of the 34th Annual Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging Topless 100 Presented by Big River Steel. Blair captured the opening 25-lap event, worth $5,000, leading Carson Ferguson, Charlie Cole, Brenden Smith and Dale McDowell across the finish line for his second Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win of the season. Thornton took the second 25-lap event for his fifth series win of the year. Hudson O'Neal, who started 12th, finished second, followed by defending Topless 100 winner Jonathan Davenport, Brandon Overton and Ethan Dotson. Chris Ferguson bolted to the lead at the start of the first feature, leading the first two laps in his first-ever visit to the track. Devin Moran, the defending series champion, then raced past Ferguson for the top spot on lap three. Moran built a sizable lead over the field until he slowed on lap 21 with a flat tire. Blair inherited the race lead and stayed out front for the final five laps to pick up his third career LOLMDS victory. "It was crazy for sure. When I got to third, I was just trying to pace myself and not kill my tires too bad, and I was just hoping I had saved enough there for the end. I want to apologize to Dale (McDowell). He is one of my idols, and I definitely got into him on that restart. I don't know if he spun his tires, and I don't know exactly what happened, but he didn't go like I anticipated. I owe him a big apology either way. No excuses, it was my bad. It's just different than the stuff I grew up on, so I can't believe we really just won. We obviously had a lot of fortune to help us out." Carson Ferguson was in the thick of things for the entire first feature and came home in the runner-up spot behind Blair. "The track kind of threw us a curveball. We couldn't keep the nose out of the racetrack all night. I was just real tight on entry. I'd say we were scared to tighten up. We were just too free when we landed in the corner, and we just had to shear it. It was a good first night, though. Obviously, things went our way and we didn't have a flat. Congratulations to Max; he was good all race. I felt like we could kind of get going, but I had to slow down too much that first lap. Like I said, we were just a little too much around the bottom for what I needed." Charlie Cole recorded the best finish of his career in LOLMDS competition, rounding out the Big River Steel Podium in third for the Arkansas veteran. "We are here to have fun, but we can get it done when we need to. When the track is in our favor, when it slows down and gets slick, I think I can get around it as good as anyone. The car was really good. I didn't have any power steering the last ten laps, and I don't know if I couldn't have won it if that didn't happen. It was that good. I haven't had a race car that good in a long time. I am really happy. That was cool."

Completing the top ten in the first feature were Terry Phillips, Clay Stuckey, Devin Moran, Brandon Sheppard, and Brian Rickman. Dane Ebert jumped to the lead at the start of the nightcap feature, looking to complete a clean sweep after setting the overall fastest time and winning his heat race. He was also seeking his first career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series feature win. Ebert looked strong while leading the first eight laps and held more than a one-second advantage over Ricky Thornton when he suffered a flat tire on lap nine. The issue handed the lead to Thornton as Ebert pitted for a new tire. With Thornton out front, a tight battle for second developed between Jonathan Davenport, who started 10th, and Hudson O'Neal. The two went back and forth for the runner-up spot, with O'Neal finally clearing Davenport on lap 17. Thornton was able to breathe easier after a lapped car cleared his path in the waning laps, and he took the checkered flag by 1.004 seconds. In Wieland Victory Lane for the 61st time in his career, the Chandler, Arizona, native set his sights on his first career Topless 100 victory Saturday night. "I feel like I have won a bunch of prelims, but we've never been able to win the Topless. I really didn't know what I needed to do there. I felt like the top was slowing down, which usually means it starts to rubber down from the middle to the bottom. I moved down and got tight. I really didn't know if I wanted JD to be second or Hud to be second. I knew both of them passed a good amount of cars to get to second. I figured their stuff was pretty good; otherwise, I didn't know what to do. Every time I get here, I am too tight on entry and it kind of kills us. When I stayed free there, I was okay, but it kind of hurt me in other spots. Pretty awesome to see Max win as well. Hopefully tomorrow goes well for us." O'Neal, who won the Topless 100 in 2021 and will be looking for the $50,000 payday Saturday night, finished in the runner-up spot to Thornton. "I felt really good. I was able to drive up through there. I had a couple of breaks with some people getting flats, but I felt like we were pretty competitive there at the end in the last few laps. I think Ricky started getting a little tight, and we were able to kind of come back to him just a little bit. But when JD threw that slider on me, I knew his car was pretty good and maybe a little better than mine. I was just fortunate enough that it was starting to clean up down there, and I could steer hard and come back down the racetrack and not lose any grip and drive back by him. So, yeah, we have had a past of throwing some sliders here at this place." Davenport, who won last year's Topless 100 for the second time, will try to become the first driver in the event's 34-year history to win it in back-to-back years. He rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third in the second 25-lapper. "We made what could have been a bad situation into something good there. I felt like we had a pretty good car. We would have liked to run more green-flag laps, but it just wasn't in the cards tonight. There were a lot of flat tires. It's just part of it, really. I never really ran the top in the heat race and had a flat, but like I said, we rebounded and passed a lot of cars. I felt like we had pace with Ricky there, especially before the leader (Ebert) had a flat. We've got a few tweaks to make to the car, but I think we will be okay."

Completing the top ten in the second feature were Clay Harris, Kyle Beard, Dane Ebert, Brody Smith and Cam Harris.

- 34th Annual Topless 100 Awaits Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series at Batesville Motor Speedway
BATAVIA, OH (August 10, 2026) - The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series heads to Batesville Motor Speedway in Batesville, Arkansas, this Friday and Saturday, August 14-15, for the 34th Annual Ace Doran Topless 100 presented by Big River Steel. One of the most recognizable events on the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series calendar, the Topless 100 puts a unique twist on Super Late Model racing as competitors remove the roofs from their cars for the weekend. The two-day event will feature a pair of preliminary features Friday before Saturday night's 100-lap finale, which will pay $50,000 to the winner. On Friday, Pit gates will close at 2:30 p.m. and reopen at 3 p.m., with the general admission gates opening at 4 p.m., followed by the drivers meeting at 7 p.m. Hot laps are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. CT. Two preliminary events will be held on Friday, each offering a $5,000-to-win prize. The field will be divided into two groups based on a pill draw, with each group competing in a full program of Dirt Draft Hot Laps, Allstar Performance Time Trials, Heat Races, B-Mains, and their respective 25-lap segments A-Main. The top 16 drivers in points from Friday's preliminary events will automatically qualify for the A-Main on Saturday, while the remaining drivers will start in a B-Main. Championship night begins with pit gates opening at 4 p.m. The grandstands also open at 4 p.m. Fans will have an opportunity to meet the drivers during an autograph session from 6:15-7 p.m., with hot laps beginning at 7:30 p.m. CT. The on-track action begins with Dirt Draft Hot Laps at 7:30 PM, followed by B-Mains for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series. The weekend then reaches its climax with the 34th Annual Topless 100 - a 100-lap Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series A-Main paying $50,000 to win. The runner-up will collect $20,000, third pays $10,000, and each of the 24 feature starters is guaranteed at least $2,000 from the $150,000 Saturday night purse. The IMCA Modifieds will compete in a complete program each night. The Topless 100 weekend arrives with the battle for the Big River Steel Championship Presented by ARP continuing to tighten. Brandon Sheppard leads the standings, just 85 markers ahead of Hudson O'Neal. Devin Moran is a close third, leaving the top three separated by only 145 points entering the weekend. Brandon Overton holds fourth, followed by Max Blair. Ricky Thornton Jr., Garrett Alberson, Josh Rice, Brian Shirley and Kyle Bronson complete the current top 10. Batesville Motor Speedway is a 3/8-mile dirt oval located at 5090 Heber Springs Road in Batesville, Arkansas.

- Josh Rice Scores Biggest Win of His Career with First North/South 100 Title
WALTON, KY (August 8, 2026) - Josh Rice finally sealed the deal Saturday night, capturing the biggest win of his career at his home track with a victory in the 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North/South 100 Presented by Lucas Oil at Florence Speedway. Rice earned a career-high $75,000 before a packed grandstand. Rice and Jonathan Davenport endured a wild, lead-swapping duel, with Rice leading the final two laps to earn the victory at the track where he began his career in an open-wheel modified. Luke Morey, making his first North-South 100 start, finished third, followed by Devin Moran and Brandon Overton. Dan Ebert took the lead at the start and paced the first seven laps before Davenport took over the top spot. On a lap 11 restart, Ebert's driveline broke, causing him to slow coming off turn four and triggering a 15-car pileup. The incident eliminated LOLMDS championship points leader Brandon Sheppard and Bobby Pierce, who was seeking his fourth consecutive North-South 100 victory. After a lengthy cleanup, Davenport maintained the lead until lap 25, when Kyle Bronson took over the top spot. Bronson and Davenport were battling for the race lead when the two made contact coming off turn two, sending Davenport spinning into the inside berm. Bronson then led until lap 62, when Devin Moran took over. Moran held the lead until Davenport, who had pitted for repairs following the lap 51 incident, charged back to the front. Davenport's lead was short-lived, as Moran regained the top spot on lap 85. Davenport answered immediately, passing Moran to retake the lead on lap 86. Davenport held the lead until Rice charged from fourth and caught him as the duo raced to the white flag. Rice took the lead off turn four, then lost it between turns three and four after getting into the wall on the final lap. He drove back underneath Davenport to take the checkered flag. In Wieland Victory Lane for the fifth time in his career, the current O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie-of-the-Year points leader reflected on the victory. "I am a frickin' North-South 100 winner. We put on four different tires, wrecked three different times and we had a Daytona 500 crash on the front stretch. It worked out and I didn't even know I had a left front. I had about six pep talks when I pitted. I am speechless. What just happened? I can't thank my dad and mom enough for everything. We have made a mess of this race so many times. I just can't thank my sponsors enough throughout the years, and just everybody who stuck by me. All of my guys, all of my family and friends are here. It's incredible," said the Crittenden, Kentucky, racer, who is in his first full season of national touring racing. "Man, I just kept getting crowded off the corners. When you slide those guys, it's either hit 'em down the straightaway or slide them to let them know you are coming. Man, I'd get runs on those guys and I'd have to calm myself down. My car was not good, but when I hit it right, my car was really good. I just tried to stay focused, and I don't know how clean some of those sliders were on JD. I felt like I owed him one, and I got it back down in three. He apologized afterwards. I think a lot of JD. We've had a lot of good racing here recently," said the 28-year-old racer. Rice explained what went through his mind during the frenetic final laps of the race. "You have no idea how hard it is to be, like, the fans are paying attention. They're just crazy. When I slid him (Davenport) down here, I got all crossed up on the cushion and I cut down on him, and I probably figured he was aggravated about that. All the way down the back chute, I didn't know what to do, whether to slide myself, and I started to think about last night and how out of control I was getting to it. So I guess I will just enter it and prepare to cross, and my right-rear tire hit the cushion just perfectly and it launched me. I knew it was over before it was over, and I'm like, this is perfect. Got the best run that I could ever imagine." Davenport, who was seeking his third career North/South 100 victory, finished second, 0.574 seconds behind Rice. "I can't remember everything that happened. We took off pretty good there. I just hated it for all the guys that got taken out there in that wreck. It definitely changed the complexion of the race. The first time me and Josh got together, I really thought I left him just enough room and he jumped my right front. It was just a racing deal, and I knew he would probably be mad. I was coming back through there after I pitted. I started picking them off. I never could really run the cushion; I got to bouncing a couple of times. I just progressed back up through there and got by Josh again. I thought I was going to be okay, and I got by Devin (Moran) and I got a little excited. I guess we started to really roll through the middle, and I could catch the brown in three and four pretty good. I couldn't circle there and leave pretty good." Morey, who before this weekend had raced only once at Florence in his career, made his first North-South 100 start and rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third after starting 19th. "Yeah, that was crazy. It was the first North-South for me. I had only been here one other time. I am telling you, it was crazy watching Rice and them go after it and the fans freaking out. I would have been thankful to battle for 20th. I never thought we'd be here standing on the frontstretch afterwards."

- Brandon Davis completes USMTS Show-Me Shootout sweep at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (Aug. 8, 2026) - Brandon Davis completed a memorable weekend by completing a sweep Saturday night at the 17th annual Summit USMTS Slick Mist Show-Me Shootout Presented by Foley Equipment. Davis, of Hayfield, Minn., took the lead away from Tanner Mullens on lap 30 and went on to win $5,000 prizes on back-to-back nghts at Lucas Oil Speedway. Moreover, it was Davis' fifth straight USMTS victory. "Heck no. I've never gotten five of these in one season," Davis said of his streak in victory lane. "I haven't raced with them as much, but these guys are good. This car is just really good right now." Other feature winners on the program were Robbe Ewing (Hermitage Lumber Late Models), Jon Sheets (Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods) and Rodney Schweizer (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars). Davis started seventh and gradually worked his way toward the front as Mullens, of Wichita, Kan., set the pace. Mullens built the lead to 1.6 seconds by lap eight with Davis rallying into third by lap 17, three seconds behind the leader. Davis got around Stevens for second two laps later and began to slice into Mullens' margin. Mullens led Davis by 1.8 seconds at the halfway mark in a race that had remained caution-free. Davis continued to quickly gain and was within .420 seconds as caution flew on lap 25 for Gary Christian's spin. Wolff was running third with Jim Chisholm fourth and Stevens fifth. The restart saw Mullens retain the lead, but another caution appeared on lap 27 for 24th-running Ryan Murphy's spin in turn two. Wolff and Davis swapped second the next couple of leaps. Then it was Davis' turn to take his first lead, sliding around Mullens out of turn four on lap 30. That would be the winning move en route to his 16th career USMTS triumph. "Tanner was kind of moving around and defending and I thought I might catch him sleeping on the outside," Davis said. "I actually ended up getting on the bottom and then doing the slider. This thing is so good. It's crazy. "I came here here a couple of different times for some big shows and thought I was never going to get the job done. To get it done against these guys it's just surreal." Davis said his pursuit of a USMTS championship will continue with one car and one motor, plus a borrowed truck and hauler from a lifelong friend. "I don't know if I sealed my tire up or what," Mullen said. "But I don't think it would have mattered. He's a lot better than us right now. We just have to work on it and get better." Before he could clear to a lead of any margin, caution appeared again on lap 31, leading Davis nine laps to hold off Mullens, Wolff and fourth-place Rodney Sanders. With three cars battling for second after the restart, Davis quickly opened a 1.7-second lead - but that's when another caution slowed the field with five laps remaining. The additional restart didn't matter as Davis cruised once action resumed, beating Mullens by about 10 car lengths. Sanders finished third with Chisholm fourth and Jake Timm fifth after starting 22nd. "We're steady," Sanders said of his finish. "Congrats to Brandon. He's really good right now." There were 45 USMTS cars on hand for the second straight night. Nic Bidinger set fast qualifying time in Group A at 16.628 seconds with Tyler Wolff pacing Group B at 16.721. Ewing wires Late Model field: Robbe Ewing of Stockton led all 20 laps, but had to withstand a restart midway through the event, to earn the Hermitage Lumber Late Model feature. It was Ewing's second feature win of the season as he cut into division points leader JC Morton at the top of the standings. Ewing started on the pole and led the way, opening a half-second margin over Cole Henson when caution flew on lap nine. After action resumed, Ewing cleared away to a 1.2-second leader over Henson with Kaeden Cornell another second behind on lap 15. Ewing took it home from there, finishing two seconds in front of Henson with Cornell coming home in third. "I didn't know where anybody was at," Ewing said of his competitors. "I kept seeing some noses down here but just tried to stay as smooth and as clean as I could. The track crew did another great job tonight." Tyler went from ninth to fourth and Dustin Atkinson wound up fifth after starting 14th. B-Mod sweep completed by Sheets: Jon Sheets of Nevada, completed a Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod two-night sweep, leading all 20 laps for his fifth victory at the track this season and 10th win overall. "It's never easy," Sheets said. "We were lucky to get the lead early. Track position was a key tonight. We weren't uber good down through one and two, but three and four was so technical that you had to keep your car straight and catch that moisture on the way off. "I had one goal tonight and that was not make our guys work so. We had both ends knocked off last night I don't think anything tonight, so that's always a good night." Sheets rolled from the start by had a 1.1-second lead over Cayden Stacye midway through the 20-lapper. In a race without a caution after a lone yellow after lap one, Sheets prevailed by one second. Tyler Potter was third with Mike Striegel fourth and Colson Kirk fifth. Schweizer wins Stock Cars feature: Rodney Schweizer of Kansas City, Kan., took the lead on lap four and rolled to the O'Reilly's USRA Stocks cars victory, beating Friday night winner Jaylen Wettengel by 3.2 seconds. The fifth-starting Wettengel fell back to seventh early before rolling back into contention, taking over second by lap 10. While he was second-best this time, he was no match for Schweizer who found Lucas Oil Speedway victory lane for the first time this season. "He;'s always good here," Schweizer said of Wettengel. "(Johnny) Fennewad is good here. There's a lot of good drivers here and we're just fortunate that we came out on top tonight." Jayden Bears was third with Johnny Fennewald fourth and William Garner fifth.

- Highlights | 2026 Lucas Oil North/South 100 at Florence Speedway
Florence Speedway hosts one of the season's biggest Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events, the 44th North/South 100, on Saturday, August 8, 2026.
- Overton and Rice Score Dramatic Last-Lap Wins Friday Night at Florence
WALTON, KY (August 7, 2026) - Brandon Overton and Josh Rice used last-lap passes to win their respective 25-lap preliminary features for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series on Friday night at Florence Speedway. Overton's first series win since last May nearly slipped away when Mike Marlar got by him as they headed to the white flag. Overton fought back, storming past Marlar to regain the lead and taking the checkered flag by a scant 0.192 seconds. Hudson O'Neal finished third, with Jimmy Owens and Adam Stricker completing the top five in the first feature. Rice's win also featured a dramatic last-lap finish. He got by Bobby Pierce as the two took the white flag, making a daring move for the lead that paid off as he held off Pierce for the win. Zack Dohm was third, with Dan Ebert and Devin Moran rounding out the top five in the second 25-lap feature. In Wieland Victory Lane for the 20th time in his career, Overton, an Evans, Georgia, native who sits fourth in the championship standings, was relieved to finally claim his first series win in more than a year. "I said, oh no, not again. I was fine early on, and those guys got to racing behind, and all I can say is hats off to Josh King. I look forward to coming here every year, and this is why: you can race all over it. Obviously, it's hard to leave because you don't know where everybody else is. It's $6,000 to win and they're racing like it's the Daytona 500. I don't expect anything less. It was a fun race with Mikey, and man, they drive so hard, and we will take them any way we can. It was fun, but my heart did sink when Mikey came sliding by me. I was just doing the best I could. It may be just a prelim night, but it's a shot in the arm for us." Marlar, who won a preliminary feature on Thursday night, came close to becoming the first driver to win two races this week. "It was fun all the way around. I had a little bit of a messed-up tire deal there. We went and changed a tire and couldn't get the lug nut off of it, so I was struggling with my steering, but it's all right. It was a fun race, and I had a little bit of a cushion, so I could steer on that just fine. Probably the part that hurt me was the corner steering, and I didn't want to hit him (Overton) or something when I turned under him." O'Neal came from 11th to round out the Big River Steel Podium in third in the first feature. "I had the best seat in the house. These guys were going at it. I really thought I was in the best spot whenever they were going down into three, and Mikey had a small run. I thought he was going in there to slide him, and I was hoping they would rub a little bit and I would sneak in there and get one." The winner's Scott and Jason Riggs/Riggs Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by Clements Racing Engines and sponsored by Budweiser, Garnto Southern, Riggs Fiber, Muscle Factory, Harco Construction, Big Dog Stump and Tree, and R.W. Powell Construction. Completing the top 10 in the first feature were Carson Ferguson, Ricky Thornton Jr., Dillon McCowan, Shannon Babb, and Ryan Montgomery. In the second $6,000-to-win preliminary feature, current LOLMDS points leader Brandon Sheppard took the lead at the start over Bobby Pierce and held it until Pierce passed him for the top spot on lap 10. Rice then got by Sheppard for second. With three laps to go, Pierce, Rice, Sheppard, and Dohm were all battling for the lead when Sheppard suffered a flat tire, forcing him to make a pit stop. On the final restart, Pierce led the field to the white flag, but Rice threw a slider entering turn one to take the lead. He held his line into turn three and, despite banging the cushion hard in turn four, held on for the win. In Wieland Victory Lane for the second time this year and the fourth time in his career, the two-time Ralph Latham Memorial winner set his sights on his first Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100 win on Saturday night. "I know Bobby (Pierce) won three of these North-South races in a row, but this is Rice Brothers, y'all. I tried that slider line right before the caution, and I closed up probably six car lengths. I don't know if Bob (Pierce) told him that was good or not. He was messing my air really bad, and I finally just hit it right. I don't know how clean it was; it was time to throw it. Man, what a hot rod. I can't thank Mark Richards enough. It's crazy to come out here and be on the podium and then win the first weekend out. This place is so darn cool to run good at. I have won everything here except the Big One, and we will give it our best shot tomorrow night." Pierce, who will be looking for his fifth North-South 100 victory on Saturday night, led 14 laps and crossed the finish line 0.252 seconds behind Rice. "I felt like I didn't get great off of four, and then I went to protect the slider if someone was there in one, and then I hit that hole. But all in all, I think the track was really good. They gave us lots of room to race on and gave us a last-lap pass in both features, so it was a really good track. I think we made a lot of good gains with the car throughout the weekend so far. We've learned a lot more, and I think the more we can apply for tomorrow, the better." Dohm earned his first Big River Steel Podium finish of the year with the series, finishing a close third. "I thought I was sitting pretty. I knew what tires everybody had on, and it seems like those 3s fade after a caution. So I figured Josh would make a run on Bobby, and I was hoping they would get a little more aggressive. I thought even on that last lap Bobby was going to drive back up beside him and they both would go up the hill, but Josh had him cleared too much. Third is good. We have had just a terrible weekend. We had a transmission go out and a bent spindle when we hit the wall before qualifying yesterday, and it ruined my lap. But in the features, we have passed cars, and that's what it's all about." The winner's James Rattliff/JRR Motorsports Rocket Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and sponsored by Glenwood Electric, Rice Excavating and Plumbing, Chain Locker, Cheap Chevrolet, Sunoco Race Fuels, BC Fluid Power, MGL Auto Sales, Berea Collision, Lonkard Construction, JRR Trucking, JRR Motor Sales, Jessie Insurance Agency, Keltner Contracting, Big Al's Guns and Outdoor, and The KAG. Completing the top 10 in the second feature were Tyler Erb, Jason Jameson, Justin Rattliff, Kaede Loudy, and Max Blair.

- Brandon Davis uses late pass to win a thriller on Night 1 of Show-Me USMTS Shootout at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (Aug. 7, 2026) - Brandon Davis of Hayfield, Minn., made it four straight Summit United States Modified Touring Series wins, using a pass with two laps remaining to overtake race-long leader Jim Chisholm for a $5,000 payday Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Davis' Night 1 victory the 17th annual Slick Mist USMTS Shootout Presented by Foley Equipment was a thriller in which Chisholm, from Osage, Iowa, nearly took it wire-to-wire for 40 laps. "I just sent it in three and said I'm either going to hit the tack and take off or he's gonna pull away from me," Davis said of the decisive moment, with the white flag in sight. Other feature winners on the program were (JC Morton) Hermitage Lumber Late Models, (Jon Sheets) Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods and Jaylen Wettengel (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars). All four divisions will be back in action on Saturday night. Chisholm beat Rodney Sanders to the lead at the drop off the green and set the early pace. Chisholm built a five-car-length lead by lap eight over Sanderson with Brandon Davis settling into third and Tyler Davis fourth. The event's first caution appeared on lap 13 when Chase Sigg hit the wall in turn three. After the restart, Tyler Davis cruised into second behind Chisholm with Sanders in third. That's how it stayed until lap 23 when caution No. 2, for a multi-car spin in turn two, slowed the action. Chisholm's lead at the time was .569 seconds over Tyler Davis. Caution was out again two laps after the restart for debris as Chisholm led a 1.2-second lead over Brandon Davis. Chisholm's lead was down to a car length by lap 29 as Brandon Davis closed in from the inside line. Those two continued to run less than a half-second apart as the laps clicked by, Chisholm night on the track and Davis in the slow groove. Davis, 35, made a drive out of turn four to pull alongside the leader on lap 37, but was unable to inch past. After repeating the bid for several consecutive laps, Davis was able to made the decisive pass with a dive on lap 39 into turn three. "Jim knows where I am and he wasn't defending too much, so I just sent it into three," Brandon Davis said. Davis held on to take the win over Wolff by .283 seconds with Chisholm fading to third on the final lap. "Brandon Davis, I appreciate running him clean," Wolff said. "I messed up a few times as I'm sure I wasn't very good coming off bottom going to the top. We just stayed after it. We were close. I'm not gonna complain." Chisholm, 23, was philosophical about barely missing his fourth USMTS win of the season. "I've got to congratulate Brandon. He's the class of the field right now and it shows," Chisholm said. "I kind of expected him to slide himself and I felt we'd have a chance to do the same. Just misjudged the situation a little bit and came out third." Sanders was fourth and Tanner Mullens fifth. There were 45 Modifieds on hand for the USMTS portion. Jim Chisholm set fast qualifying time with a lap of 16.831 seconds. The Modifieds go after another $5,000-to-win in another 40-lapper on Saturday night. Morton rolls to Late Models win: Hermitage Lumber Late Model season points leader JC Morton led all but the opening lap in earning the 20-lap victory over Tyler Wolff. It was the second feature win of the season for Morton, from Springfield. "You started behind Wolff and Robbe Ewing, that's tough," Morton said. "Then me and Cole (Henson) had a slide job and I finally got clear of him. After that, I tried to hit my marks there and just focus on what I needed to do." After Wolff led the opening lap, Morton found momentum off turn four on lap two and shot to the lead over Cole Henson. A lap later, Wolff was back into second, but not before Morton had nearly a one-second lead. Morton, who started fourth, and Wolff had separated from the field by nearly three seconds when caution slowed the action on lap 11 when third-running Henson spun to a stop on the front straightaway. Morton retained the lead after the restart with Dayton Pursley falling in behind Wolff as the laps dwindled. Morton held on to take the win by 1.06 seconds over Wolff with Pursley third, Tucker Cox fourth and Kaeden Cornell fifth. "That dang yellow came out and I was cussing, but it's all good," Morton said. "It probably got me out of them lapped cars and calmed me down a little bit." Sheets rolls late in B Mods: Jon Sheets of Nevada took the lead on lap 14 and led the final seven circuits to beat JC Morton in the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod main event. Front-row starters Chad Clancy and Morton ran 1-2 from the start with fifth-starting Sheets climbing to third by lap eight. Sheets took over second on lap 13 and then. Went to the lead the next time around to complete lap 14. Sheets led by .597 seconds when the race's first caution flew with five to go. Fourth-running Cayden Stacye was unable to avoid hitting the lapped car that spun and the incident took Stacye out of contention for a top-five finish. Sheets jumped to the night groove and stayed there after the restart, rolling to a 2.2-second margin over Morton at the checkers. "It's always cool racing with Chad and JC and them guys. We've raced together for years," said Sheets, who noted that he was a bit worried after grazing a tractor tire in turn two. "The car got tight afterward. The car was still really good. It was really, really good before that." Clancy finished third with Ryan Gillmore fourth and Tyler Potter fifth. Stock Cars win to Wettengel: Eighth-starting Jaylen Wettengel of Topeka, Kan., took the lead with five laps to go and held on a frantic battle among multiple cars at the ront of the O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars feature. Wettengel took the lead from Garner on lap 15, coming out of turn four after Garner had led all but one of the first 14 laps. Schweizer took over second a lap later and was a half-second behind Wettengel when caution flew with two remaining. Wettengel was able to hold on to earn the victory, beating Schweizer by .352 seconds. "That was a blast," Wettengel said. "Multi-lane track, top to bottom. Even the USMTS feature was fun to watch. Hopefully that topped it. But it was fun. It was good, hard racing." Wiliam Garner was third with Mason Beck fourth and Grayson McKiney fifth. Gates open at 4 p.m. Saturday night hot laps at 6:30 and opening ceremonies to follow.

- Sheppard and Marlar Take Thursday Night Florence Prelims
WALTON, KY (August 6, 2026) - Brandon Sheppard and Mike Marlar took top honors in Thursday night's dual 25-lap features for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series at Florence Speedway to kick off the 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North-South Weekend. In the first $6,000-to-win main event, Sheppard took the lead from Chris Ferguson on lap 13 and then pulled away for his ninth series win of the season. Garrett Alberson, who passed Ferguson for second on lap 14, then held off a charging Josh Rice for second over the final 10 laps of the race. Rice, the current O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year points leader, was debuting a new Rocket Chassis as he rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. Donald McIntosh, last year's O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year, was fourth, with Ferguson rounding out the top five. In Wieland Victory Lane for the 44th time in his career, the current championship points leader finally picked up his first win at Florence as he eyes the $75,000 top prize in Saturday night's 44th Annual Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100. "I am pretty sure this is my first Florence win. We have been really good in the big race on Saturday a few times. In 2016, I was there at the end and got a flat tire. It's been one of them places where things haven't went my way. I felt like we had a pretty decent car in the spring when we were here, so I was excited to come back, especially with as good as we have been running. My confidence is at an all-time high with this race car." Alberson fought off Rice in a great battle to snag the runner-up spot. "I knew once Josh (Rice) got to third, I was like, alright, we are going to have us a fight right there, you know, because I was a little too tight to really run that top the way I needed to. I kind of had to back it in there, but hats off to Josh. We had a good little race right there. It was a lot of fun, and Sheppy, his car was really good. It's super balanced right now." Rice, who entered the weekend having won 13 times at Florence since 2021, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third in front of his home-track fans. "That was fun racing with Garrett. I wanted to get to second for Mark (Richards). He worked a lot on my race car this week, and I can't thank him enough for that. It was just like home. It was typical Florence on the cushion. I was probably a little too tight for the cushion. I probably didn't have much for Shep, but congrats to those guys." The winner's Mark Richards Racing, Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and sponsored by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Ace Metal Works, Performance Grading, Franklin Enterprises, Sunoco Race Fuels, Gunter's Honey, Stiles Marine and Maintenance, Fox Shocks, and Collins Brothers Towing. Completing the top 10 in the first feature were Devin Moran, Clay Harris, Trevor Landrum, Bobby Pierce, and Shannon Babb. In the second $6,000-to-win main event, Marlar took the lead from Brandon Overton on lap 20 and held on the rest of the way for his first LOLMDS win of the year. Marlar, who started eighth, led Overton, Hudson O'Neal, Kyle Bronson, and Jonathan Davenport across the finish line for his 24th Lucas Oil win, tying him with Hall of Famer Billy Moyer. Ricky Thornton Jr. led the first eight laps of the 25-lap nightcap until he relinquished the lead to Overton on lap nine. Two laps later, Thornton brushed the wall in turn four, resulting in a right-rear flat tire as he slowed to bring out a caution flag. Overton, who was looking for his first series win since Circle City last year, was in front until Marlar got by him on lap 20 to take over the lead. Marlar then beat Overton to the finish line by 1.244 seconds in a highly competitive race. Marlar, like Sheppard, is looking for his first career Sunoco Race Fuels North-South 100 victory on Saturday night. "I tried to be a little bit of everywhere. The track was just racy, you know. When you've got a great track like that, that's how you've got to be. There was a lot of thinking going on in that race and strategies on restarts and stuff like that. It was fun to race with the top guys up here and have a good time and get a win. My car was really good, so I was on offense. When you're on defense, you don't want to see those cautions, but when you are on offense, every caution is an opportunity. I want to really thank Mark Richards for his help on the car today. I kind of told him what I was looking for, and he helped me a little bit." Overton, who led the most laps (11) in the second feature, came home in second. "The other cars had me moving all over the racetrack, and I was kind of holding them off. They said Mikey had a 3 on, so I don't know if the softer tires, you know, played into it at the end on them restarts. I didn't feel bad. Honestly, I felt pretty good at the beginning. I know Ricky had a softer tire on earlier. He was doing what he does out front, and he got into the fence, and I don't know whether that cut his tire down or what. On those restarts, it was hard getting back into a rhythm, and it is what it is. We're alright." O'Neal, who started ninth, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. "We worked, and I think we worked in the right direction, and we'll see tomorrow when we unload. We just found ourselves in really bad positions on those restarts. I felt like my race car was okay. I just jumped the cushion one time and made one mistake and let two or three cars get by me, and then I had to drive back through there to get to third." The winner's Ronnie Delk-owned, Rocket Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Delk Equipment, Langenfelder Mechanical Contractors, Mesilla Valley Transportation, Petroff Towing, Certain Teed, Can Am Auto Salvage, Fox Shocks, and Spirit Fuel Racing. Completing the top 10 in the second feature were Drake Troutman, Carson Ferguson, Tyler Erb, Ricky Thornton Jr., and Zack Dohm.

- Thorson, Wagner, Greenwood earn Round 3 Road to Hockett wins at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (Aug. 1, 2026) - Tanner Thorson was rewarded for a daring pass for the lead on lap 13 and the Broken Arrow, Okla., driver went on to win the Rod End Supply "Road to the Hockett" Round 3 in POWRi 410 Sprints on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Thorson, an Interstate Batteries High Limit Sprint series regular, took command with a slider heading into turn two and never looked back. He did have to withstand some late-race drama that forced a green-white-checker restart for the win. Thorson's final margin was .956 seconds over Joe B. Miller with Joel Myers Jr. third. Other winners during Round 3 were Jack Wagner (POWRi WAR Sprints) and Jake Greenwood (305 IMCA RaceSaver Sprints). The Road to the Hockett features POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprints, POWRi WAR Sprints and 305 IMCA RaceSaver Sprints. Road to the Hockett series points champs after the four races in the POWRi 410 Winged Springs and POWRi WAR will receive an automatic bid into this fall's open-wheel crown jewel at the speedway, Sept. 17-19. The top three in points take home prize money and Lucas Oil products. Championship night for the Road to the Hockett is set for Aug. 22. Thorson said it was nice to make the trip to Lucas Oil Speedway, during a brief High Liimt Series break, to get some testing prior to the Hockett-McMillin in September. "Hats off to to this team. We have the whole JST crew here tonight," Thorson said. "It was a fun little trip. Hats off to everybody on this car." Xavier Doney started on the pole and it didn't take him long to build a sizable lead, 1.71 seconds in front of Thorson four laps in. That's when fourth-running Landon Crawley flipped his car multiple times in turn two to bring out a caution. Roger Crockett moved into second after the restart as Doney's lead was soon back to nearly two seconds as Crockett fell behind Thorson. As the leaders entered lapped traffic, Thorson was cutting into the margin when caution No. 2 flew as third-running Crockett spun when hit by a non-contending car. Thorson used a slider to take the lead on the restart coming off turn two. By just two laps later, caution No. 3 appeared when Doney got into the turn two marbles and spun, barely keeping it from going rolling. That left Thorson leading Howard Moore and Joe B. Miller for the restart with 10 laps remaining. Thorson sailed to a 2.3-second lead over the next five laps, turning it into a runaway. He was less than one lap to the checkers when Gage Montgomery, running sixth, flipped his car to bring out the led in turn two. Thorson held on to post the $5,000 first prize. "Jason and Shantel (Tessier) at the start of the season wanted to purchase our High Limit program that Rod (Gross) owned," Thorson said. "Buying a franchise with High Limit Racing is such a big future for sprint-car racing. And thanks to POWRi (owner) Kenny (Brown) and everybody here. They do a phenomenal job." Miles Paulus was fourth with Howard Moore fifth. Jack Wagner wins win POWRi WAR: Jack Wagner of Lone Jack, Mo., posted his second POWRi Wingless Sprint League feature win at Lucas Oil Speedway this season, beating Mario Clouser of Auburn, Ill., by nearly a straightaway's margin. Third-starting Wesley Smith took advantage of a bobble from Wagner at the start to grab the lead, but Wagner was back in front the next time around and wouldn't surrender the lead again. Wagner had a 2.2-second lead by the midway point on lap 10. That was the peak of the lead as Smith began to chip into the lead and trailed by 1.06 seconds on lap 15 - but Smith jumped the cushion in turn two and spun his car to bring out the first caution. That put Clouser, four seconds behind at the time of the caution, right behind Wagner for the restart. Wagner handled the restart with no issues and drove away to take the win by 1.59 seconds over Clouser. "This race track has been really set and fit for all these cars, it doesn't matter if its 305s or 410s or this non-wing car," Wagner said in victory lane. "But it doesn't start here, it starts in the shop. Me and my dad talked about it the middle of the week. How do you win races? You win races right here (in the shop). It was another perfect race car." Bryson Smith was third with Tom Curran fourth and Wesley Smith rallying from his spin to fifth. POWRi 305 win to Greenwood: Jake Greenwood of Woodward, Iowa, led all 20 laps for the 305 IMCA RaceSaver Sprints victory. Pole-starting Greenwood and Landon Muehlberger ran 1-2 as the race progressed to lap 10, when caution flew for a multi-car incident in turn three. Greenwood pulled away after the restart to lead by just over two seconds by lap 13. With all green-flag action the rest of the way, Greenwood went on to beat Waylon Phillips by 2.8 seconds with Muehlberger finishing third. "We've been doing this RaceSaver thing because it's all we can afford and this stuff is pretty expensive," Greenwood said. "We get a lot of fun out of this." Randy Martin finished fourth with Chase Koelliker fifth. Fast qualifiers: Xavier Doney of Odessa set fast qualifying time for the 410s with a lap of 12.848 - just off the track record of 12.829 set By Rico Abreu with the High Limit Series on June 29, 2024. In the POWRi WAR Sprints, Wesley Smith set fast time at 15.107. He also was just off the track record, held by Logan Seavey with a lap of 14.928 on Sept. 6, 2025 during a USAC show.

- Thornton Takes First Career Silver Dollar Nationals Win at Shelby County
HARLAN, IA (July 18, 2026) - Ricky Thornton Jr. won the 16th Annual Al Belt Custom Homes Silver Dollar Nationals on Saturday night at Shelby County Speedway, leading all 80 laps to become the 12th different driver to win the crown jewel event. Thornton, a Chandler, Arizona, native who now resides in Indianola, Iowa, earned $52,000 for the victory in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series-sanctioned event. Jonathan Davenport, the only three-time winner in the event's history, which began in 2011, gained two positions after the race's lone caution with 70 laps complete. Davenport, who was running fourth before the yellow, passed both Brian Shirley and Bobby Pierce to earn the runner-up finish and $53,000. Pierce, who entered the event having won 12 of his previous 14 feature starts, ran second for 71 laps before Davenport slipped past him late, relegating him to third at the finish. Shirley finished fourth, while championship points leader and Thursday night's Go 50 winner Brandon Sheppard completed the top five. In Wieland Victory Lane for the 60th time in his career and the fourth time this season, Thornton joined an elite group of Silver Dollar Nationals champions. "At the start I didn't know whether I needed to be on the bottom or the top. I felt like that first lap I moved out in three and four and I was like, 'Man, that didn't feel very good.' I ran about four or five laps there, tried it again, and I don't know if they were going in too hard above the cushion. It was weird because it was really fluffed up there, so I backed down and just rode around. Then we got to lapped traffic and I felt like I really wanted to move up and try to blow by those cars." "I was trying to get myself clear of Hoffman and McCreadie. I stayed beside them for what felt like 50 laps, and I figured the top wasn't any better, so I just kept rolling around the bottom. Hats off to everyone at Koehler Motorsports. It's a little sigh of relief because I feel like we got our old selves back. I love coming to this place, and thanks to all of the fans for coming out. It's pretty awesome to win this since I'm only an hour and a half away." Davenport, who started ninth, quickly climbed to third before settling into fourth for much of the race. He passed Pierce and Shirley late to secure second. "The track just went away. We could never get it packed in under green. I floated out there a few times and just slid. Before that caution came out I went all the way to the top because we're not running for points, so I was going to try something. I thought Bobby might try the top on the restart, and if that happened it would give Shirley clean air on the bottom. Then maybe I could roll the middle just right and get a run on him. It kind of worked out, just not exactly the way I drew it up." Pierce, the 2019 Silver Dollar Nationals winner, rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. "I looked at the scoreboard and thought we were almost done because the race went by so fast. Congratulations to Ricky. He drove a heck of a race and did a great job getting through lapped traffic. I didn't have anything for him. The last time we were here it was a barnburner, so we set up for that. We made a couple of changes I didn't really like, but now I think we know a little better for next year." "I thought the top was going to be fast for a long time, but once they dropped the green the bottom was the preferred lane and the top just turned to crumbs. It caught a lot of us by surprise. I thought the track crew did everything right, and just like with a race car, you take notes for next time. I'm sure we'll get another barnburner next year." The winning Koehler Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis was powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Knight's Companies, Hoker Trucking, Capital Waste, Coltman Farms Racing, Certified Inspection Services, Strange Oval, Sunoco Race Fuels, Elite Ready Mix, D&E Outside Service, and SI Towing and Recovery. Completing the top 10 were Devin Moran, Hudson O'Neal, Max Blair, Clay Stuckey, and Ryan Gustin.

- Cox hangs on for Challenge Cup Round 3 Late Model win at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (July 18, 2026) - Tucker Cox parked it in victory lane in the Hermitage Lumber Late Model division on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway in Round 3 of the Pitts Homes and Realty Challenge Cup. It wasn't easy, even though Cox officially led all 20 laps. The Jefferson City driver earned his first feature win of the season, holding off multiple slider attempts from Robbe Ewing over the final four laps. "It was a really good race and the car was really good tonight," said Cox, who earned $1,000 for the victory. Cox started on the pole and set the early pace, leading Ewing and Matt Becker, with eighth-starting Cole Henson moving into fourth by lap four. Following a lap-six caution, Kaeden Cornell advanced into second after starting seventh. As the laps clicked by, Cox kept extending his lead and was 2.5 seconds in front of of Ewing by lap 14 with Cornell third and Henson fourth. But Cox saw his big lead wiped out with a lap-16 caution. Ewing rode the high groove to pull alongside Cox twice in the final laps, but Cox hung on to win by .151 seconds or one car length. "On that last restart I could hear him out there. On the front straightaway I could hear him, wide open going into one," Cox said of Ewing, who twice momentarily took the lead, only for Cox to cross back over before the start-finish line, Cornell was third with Bryon Allison fourth and Becker fifth. A total of 113 cars checked into the pits for the five classes, which will have 10 points races between April 10th and Aug. 29 with a number of other events to be run as non-points events. All 10 Challenge Cup events for each series will have elevated nightly purses. Year-end points payouts also will be boosted. Other feature winners on a night with several close finishes included Jon Sheets (Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods), Cole Campbell (Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds), Mike Striegel (Hickamo Super Stocks) and Jaylen Wettengel (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars). Modifieds win to Campbell is close finish: Cole Campbell of Mexico, Mo., held off Wyatt Gaggero by a few feet to earn the Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modified feature win. Chase Sigg led by just under one second in the early after starting on row one with Jason Pursley second and Campbell third. Two laps later, Campbell was back into second with Dean Wille up to third. Caution on lap nine bunched the field one circuit shy of the halfway mark, taking away Sigg's 1.3-second lead. Campbell used a big run on the restart to take the lead on lap 10 and he quickly opened a 1.5-second command - until caution flew again on lap 13. This time it was Sigg's turn to recapture the lead, sliding past Campbell out of turn four. The top two kept dueling with Shane Hartline and Wyatt Gaggero right behind as the laps dwindled. Campbell and Gaggero both slid high going for the win on the turn and Campbell held on by a few feet - officially .057 seconds - for his first Lucas Oil Speedway win of the season. "We honestly weren't very good at all," Campbell said of his fence-scraping triumph. "I just put it on the fence and drove the heck out out it. I can't thank my guys enough." Sigg settled for third with Hartline fourth and Nic Bidinger fifth. Sheets takes B-Mod victory: Division points leader Jon Sheets of Nevada drove to his third feature win of the season in the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods, leading all 20 laps and overcoming a late caution. Sheets opened a 3.1-second lead over Jackson by lap 10, opening a big gap as Jackson, J.T. Carroll and Tim Karrick battled it our for second. On his way to seemingly a sure victory became more precarious for Sheets when a lap-16 caution wiped out a lead of 3.2 seconds with Jackson running in second. Jackson fell out of contention with a mechanical issue after the restart and Sheets drove away. Sheets beat Karrick by 2.2 seconds with Cayden Stacye third, Carroll fourth and Waylon Dimmitt fifth. "We've been struggling the last couple of weeks and we worked hard on it," Sheets said. "Looking at our times after the heat races, we were about a half-second off. We worked hard and ... we had a hot rod. I think everybody knows I like a track like that. It's pretty technical up there." Striegel earns Super Stocks triumph: Mike Striegel posted a victory on his hometown crack, taking over on lap 12 and going on to beat Terry Schultz in decisive fashion in the Hickamo Super Stocks feature. Schultz led the first four laps and, just as Fennewald was taking over the lead, caution, flew for a multi-car incident on the other end of the speedway. That saved Schultz's lead as order reverted to the last completed lap. Mike Striegel joined the battle up front as Schultz continued to lead nearly halfway in the 20-lapper. Striegel pulled alongside Schultz several laps in a row but was unable to make the pass - until lap 12. Striegel made an inside pass out of turn four for the first lead change of the race. He gradually pulled away from there and went on to beat Schultz by 2.8 seconds with Fennewald another second behind in third. "This place owes me that one," Striegel said. "I've been robbed a couple of times and I got to them lapped cars and I'm like 'Lord, please, no again.' "I dedicate this race to my good friend Scott Campbell," Striegel added, in tribute to the long-time southwest Missouri Modified racer who died earlier this month. J.T. Carroll was fourth with Donnie Miller fifth. Wettengel hands on for Stock Cars win: Jaylen Wettengel of Topeka, Kan., held off William Garner in a race that came down to the final turn, claiming the O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars feature. Wettengel blazed to the early lead from his front-row starting position as William Garner and Rodney Schweizer gave chase. Two caution flags later, Wettengel held a .694-second over Garner, who was beginning to cut a gap that once was more than a second. Wettengel capped the drive with a clean restart and he held on to beat Garner by just .105 seconds as the runner-up made a dive to in the inside coming out of turn four. "It was fun. The track was phenomenal," Wettengel said. "I needed the confidence boost, to get a win here for the first time since last year at the (USRA) Nationals. It was a good car and a good race." Schweitzer was third with Bryan White fourth and Dawson Fennewald fifth.

- Thornton Jr. Earns Pole Position for 16th Silver Dollar Nationals
HARLAN, IA (July 17, 2026) - Friday night's Silver Dollar Nationals passing points format featured double heat races, each paying $2,000 to win, for the 54 competitors signed in for the event. With 10 heat races contested, there were no repeat winners as Ricky Thornton Jr. and Bobby Pierce emerged as the front-row starters for Saturday night's 16th Al Belt Custom Homes Silver Dollar Nationals finale. Pierce and Thornton finished tied atop the passing points standings among the 16 drivers who locked themselves into Saturday night's feature at Shelby County Speedway, which is hosting the Silver Dollar Nationals for the first time. Thornton earned the pole position by winning the tiebreaker based on his faster heat race lap time, while Pierce will start alongside him on the front row. The opening heat race of round one produced an exciting finish as two-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion and 2017 Silver Dollar Nationals winner Tim McCreadie of Watertown, New York, took the lead from Brian Shirley on the final lap to claim the $2,000 victory. Shirley had led the previous 12 laps and appeared to be on his way to the win before McCreadie made the winning pass on the white-flag lap. Shirley finished second, followed by Chase Junghans and Kyle Bronson. The second heat of round one belonged to defending Silver Dollar Nationals champion Hudson O'Neal of Martinsville, Indiana, who led wire-to-wire to earn the $2,000 victory. Ryan Gustin finished second, followed by Brandon Overton and Brandon Sheppard. Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Illinois, the 2019 Silver Dollar Nationals winner, captured the third heat of round one. Pierce led the final seven laps to earn the $2,000 payday. Cory Lawler finished second, with Tim Ward and Carson Ferguson completing the top four. Defending Malvern Bank West Series champion Tad Pospisil of Norfolk, Nebraska, led all 13 laps to win the fourth heat of round one and collect $2,000. Dan Ebert crossed the line second, followed by Nick Hoffman and Blair Nothdurft. Defending Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion Devin Moran of Dresden, Ohio, won the fifth heat of round one, narrowly edging Ricky Thornton Jr., who charged from the ninth starting position. Moran claimed the victory by approximately half a car length. Brenden Smith finished third, followed by Derrick Stewart in fourth. The opening heat of round two featured passing points leader Ricky Thornton Jr. and Mike Marlar battling for the lead. Each driver led six laps before Thornton prevailed to earn another $2,000 victory. Marlar finished second, followed by Jacob Hobscheidt and Clay Harris. The second heat of round two saw Thursday's Go 50 winner Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Illinois, rally from the fifth starting position to take the lead from Chad Simpson, who had paced the field for the first 10 laps. Josh Rice finished second, followed by Simpson and Devin Moran. Dallon Murty of Chelsea, Iowa, captured the third heat of round two as he drove the Skyline Motorsports entry to the $2,000 victory by leading all 12 laps. Garrett Alberson advanced from the sixth starting position to finish second. Clay Stuckey charged from 10th to third to gain valuable passing points, while J.T. Wasmund finished fourth. Three-time Silver Dollar Nationals winner Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Georgia, dominated the fourth heat of round two. The three-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion led all 13 laps and crossed the finish line nearly six seconds ahead of Max Blair. Dillon McCowan finished third, with Dennis Erb Jr. completing the top four as Davenport earned the $2,000 winner's check. The fifth and final heat race featured an exciting battle between Zach Zeitner of Bellevue, Nebraska, and Bobby Pierce. Zeitner, the reigning and current Shelby County Speedway Late Model points leader, outdueled Pierce to score a popular $2,000 victory. Pierce finished second, followed by Chase Junghans and Nick Hoffman.

- Sheppard Seizes Control Late in Shelby County Sizzler
HARLAN, Iowa (July 16, 2026) - Brandon Sheppard capitalized on a fierce battle between Ryan Gustin and Devin Moran, slipping past both drivers with six laps remaining to capture Thursday night's Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series-sanctioned Malvern Bank Go 50 at Shelby County Speedway. Much like the previous two Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events at Shelby County Speedway, the outcome wasn't decided until the closing laps. Sheppard pocketed the $15,000 winner's prize while earning his series-leading eighth victory of the season. Nick Hoffman, who ran fourth for much of the race, charged to second during the closing laps. Gustin, who paced the field for 42 of the race's 50 laps, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. Moran, who briefly wrestled the lead away from Gustin on laps 40 and 43, finished fourth, while Brian Shirley completed the top five. The victory marked the 43rd Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph of Sheppard's career and extended his championship points lead. It also marked the fourth consecutive LOLMDS event to feature at least three different race leaders during the feature. "I was getting a heck of a show watching those two (Gustin and Moran) out front," Sheppard said. "They were racing each other hard there, and I just felt myself slipping in the top. At some point, I knew I was going to have to move down, and there was no better time than when those two were racing each other like that. I was running around trying to see if there was anything in the bottom because, in turns one and two especially, I was losing time up there. Then we got so deep into lapped traffic that it became harder to pass on the top. The bottom started to come in, and that's when I found a clean spot in turns three and four." Hoffman rebounded from a heartbreaking finish Tuesday night at Adams County Speedway, where he led the majority of the race before trailing smoke over the final 10 laps and finishing third in Corning, Iowa. "It was getting pretty western up there," Hoffman said. "I looked at the board, and we had about 10 laps to go, and I thought we still weren't out of this deal. Depending on what they were going to do, they were throwing some haymakers and elbows. It was getting pretty aggressive. Sheppy was able to snooker them there to get by them, and then I was there a couple of laps later. I just wasn't good enough. Once I cleared them, I fell in line behind Sheppy. Our stuff was really good. I don't know what we could have done differently. We were fast around the top early, and then finally we got to move around. Man, that was one of the funnest races I've run all year." Gustin, who was looking for his second career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory, settled for third after battling Moran throughout the second half of the race. The pair ran one-two for much of the feature before Sheppard capitalized on their side-by-side fight during the closing laps. "It was just really full-contact late model racing," Gustin said. "It's not the way I try to race. I try to race clean, but man, he (Moran) didn't really do anything wrong. You've got to log that stuff in the back of your head when you get run over time and time again, and when it's time to give it back, you give it back."

BATAVIA, OH (July 16, 2026) - The countdown is over as the 16th Annual Al Belt Custom Homes Silver Dollar Nationals takes center stage at Shelby County Speedway this weekend, bringing three nights of premier dirt late model racing to western Iowa and some of the sport's biggest stars to the 3/8-mile oval. Thursday's Malvern Bank Go 50 features a complete Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series program, highlighted by a $15,000-to-win feature event. On Friday, one of the event's most popular traditions returns as the Silver Dollar Nationals goes back to its original, fan-favorite format featuring passing point heat races. Every position gained and every spot lost during the heat races will carry significant weight as drivers accumulate passing points to determine Saturday night's lineups. Championship Saturday concludes with the prestigious 80-lap Al Belt Custom Homes Silver Dollar Nationals A-Main, where the sport's elite will battle for the coveted Silver Dollar Nationals title. Saturday's championship finale features one of the most unique payouts in all of motorsports. The winner of the 80-lap Al Belt Custom Homes Silver Dollar Nationals will earn $52,000, while the runner-up will receive an incredible $53,000. The unprecedented payout structure gives drivers an added incentive to race for every position until the checkered flag, making the battle for second just as lucrative as the fight for the victory. Adding even more drama to championship night is the All Makes Collision Center Non-Qualifier Race. Drivers who fail to qualify for the Silver Dollar Nationals A-Main will compete for a $3,000 winner's prize.

In addition to the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, support divisions will provide a full weekend of racing entertainment, making the Al Belt Custom Homes Silver Dollar Nationals one of the Midwest's premier motorsports destinations.

- Pierce Wins Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Adams County Debut
CORNING, IA (July 14, 2026) - Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Illinois, charged from the 12th starting position to pass Nick Hoffman for the lead on lap 35 and race to a $15,000 victory in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series debut at Adams County Speedway on Tuesday night. The victory came in the biggest race in the speedway's history and marked the first appearance by a national touring series at Adams County Speedway since the Hav-A-Tampa Racing Series competed there on August 22, 2000. Garrett Alberson slipped past Hoffman coming to the white flag to finish second, while Hoffman, whose car developed mechanical issues over the final 10 laps, held on to complete the Big River Steel Podium in third after leading 26 of the race's 40 laps. Hoffman narrowly held off Brian Shirley, who earned Hoker Trucking Hard Charger honors after advancing from the 18th starting position to finish fourth. Mike Marlar rounded out the top five. New track record holder Dillon McCowan, seeking his third consecutive Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory, jumped to the early lead and paced the opening eight laps before Hoffman took over on lap nine. The pair battled out front until Pierce began his charge through the field. After McCowan slipped off the racing surface in turn two while running fourth, Pierce moved into second following an intense battle with Alberson and Marlar. Pierce then tracked down Hoffman, exchanging the lead before taking over for good on lap 35 despite navigating through oil from Hoffman's ailing machine. The victory was Pierce's 31st career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph and his second series win of the 2026 season, adding to his Show-Me 100 victory on Memorial Day weekend. "I don't know if I could have caught him (Hoffman). When I got to second, that's when I saw him smoking and that was the first time I finally got clean air between me and him. I thought, 'I've got to track down the No. 9,' and I could see the smoke," Pierce said. "I'm surprised he held on that long. I don't know what his issue was, but it was obviously an oil line. It was oil and not tire smoke because it was getting on my shield. It was creating a slick patch, and every time I followed him off the corner I would lose ground. He was hanging on. You don't want to see that happen because maybe we could have raced it out. If he didn't have issues, it would have been tough. I'm not sure, but we'll never know." Alberson capitalized on Hoffman's troubles with an aggressive move entering turn three on the final lap to secure the runner-up finish. "After not getting the start I wanted in the heat race, Dillon (McCowan) did a really good job and it didn't put us back too far. Starting fifth was good," Alberson said. "Hats off to Adams County. This track was awesome. It was cool to see all of these fans out here, and I hope everybody had a good time because I really enjoyed the race track. "I got lucky, and I hate it for Nick that he was having problems. I did such a bad job timing that last restart that I didn't think I even had a shot at third. I got one good run off turn two that kept me ahead of Mikey (Marlar), then I saw Nick slowing into turn three, so I just sent it in there." Hoffman, the reigning C.J. Rayburn Memorial winner at Brownstown Speedway, was looking for his second career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory before mechanical issues derailed his bid. "I got out front and my crew was showing me I had a decent lead, so I was just trying to save my tires and keep the temperatures under control," Hoffman said. "Then Bobby started coming, the gap closed, and I had to start hustling the car. He slid me, and after a couple of laps of running really hard the temperature got pretty hot. "When that caution came out, I really didn't want to see it because the car got hot under yellow. I was able to cool it back down and it still had oil pressure at the finish. I don't know if it burned a piston or what happened, but it started laying down over the last few laps." Pierce's winning Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and sponsored by Low Voltage Solutions, Rio Grande Waste Services, Churchill Transport, Collins Brothers Towing, Precision Cabinets, Mesilla Valley Transportation, Carnaghi Towing, Fort Knox Safes and Vaults, and First Farmers State Bank. Completing the top 10 were Brandon Sheppard, Brandon Overton, Max Blair, Devin Moran, and Dan Ebert.

- Dillon McCowan earns emotional first Lucas Oil Late Model victory at home track
Dillon McCowan captured his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory at hometown Lucas Oil Speedway, fulfilling a lifelong dream in Wheatland, Mo.
- McCutcheon, Smith, Martin earn feature wins at Rod End Supply Road to the Hockett Round 2 at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (June 27, 2026) - Ryder McCutcheon chased Xavier Doney for 24 laps and most of the 25th. Then, on the final turn, McCutcheon made the winning pass as Doney's car lost power. That sent McCutcheon to victory lane in Saturday night's POWRi 410 Sprint feature in Round 2 of the Rod End Supply Road to the Hockett at Lucas Oil Speedway. Series Rookie of the Year contender McCutcheon, a 15-year-old from Alamogordo, N.M., scored his first POWRi 410 victory, worth $5,000, in dramatic fashion. "I'm very blessed to have all these guys on my side," McCutcheon said of his crew, car owners and sponsors at Hubland Motorsports. "Thank you for the opportunity. Thank you for letting me get here." Those two were the main contenders throughout the 25-lap event. Doney out-ran McCutcheon into the first turn as the green flew to take the lead and the front-row starters set the early pace. Doney had a half-second lead when caution flew on lap five as Kyle Clark spun to a stop in turn three. Just two laps were completed after the restart before third-running Scotty Milan's car lost power and had to be pushed to the pits. That elevated Gage Montgomery to third behind Doney and McCutcheon. Another caution slowed action on lap nine as Kyle Bellm hit the backstretch wall and headed to the pits. The race settled into a green-flag rhythm after the next restart and that allowed Doney to open his lead to nearly one second by lap 15, when he and McCutcheon caught lapped traffic. McCutcheon pulled alongside on lap 18, but Doney was able to withstand the challenge and keep the lead. Another caution appeared on lap 21 as eighth-running Landon Crawley slowed to a half on the front stretch, leaving four laps to settle the outcome. They made it just two laps before Steven Russell rolled to a stop atop turn four as another caution flew, making it a two-lap sprint to the finish. McCutcheon found himself in the right place at the right time as Doney's car lost power entering the final turns, running out of fuel. "Xavier ran a really good race. I don't want to win a race like that, honestly," McCutcheon said. "He should be going home with the trophy. But our car was on rails tonight, the best it's ever been." Doney, who coasted to the finish line to finish third behind Gage Montgomery, said he ran out of fuel after the multitude of caution laps. "Props to Ryder. He raced me clean and ran a good race, and he put more fuel in the car," Doney said. Dylan Bloomfield was fourth and Roger Crockett finished fifth. Other winners on the program were Wesley Smith (POWRi WAR) and Randy Martin (IMCA RaceSaver 305 Sprints). The Road to the Hockett has its own points series with prize money at the conclusion of four races with the points champs in POWRi 410 Winged Springs and POWRi WAR receiving an automatic bid into this fall's 16th annual Jesse Hockett-Daniel McMillin Memorial, Sept. 17-19. Remaining rounds on the Rod End Supply Road to the Hockett are set for Aug. 1 and Championship Night on Aug. 22. Feature winners in Round 1 on May 16 were Joel Myers (410 Winged Sprints), Jack Wagner (WAR Sprints) and Peyton White (305 Sprints). Smith rolls in WAR Sprints: Wesley Smith knows what it feels like to win at Lucas Oil Speedway, which is about 90 minutes north of his home in Nixa. Smith posted his sixth career win at the facility, taking the POWRi WAR non-wing feature. "These cars are so good," Smith said. "It was a little bit of a learning curve to get used to car that bites this well. Luckily we're so familiar with this place." Smith posted his second series win of the season and 20th of his career. It earned him $2,000. Smith started on the pole and took the lead at the start over Samuel Wagner. Smith forged a 1.1-second lead by lap five with Bryson Smith third and Jack Wagner fourth. As pursuers battled behind him, Smith kept building his lead and had a 2.8-second lead by lap 10 as the race remained in a long green-flag run. Smith took advantage of that and extended the lead to nearly four seconds as the race hit lap 15. Chase Howard rallied into second as the laps clicked past, going around Jack Wagner and Bryson Smith. But it was all Wesley Smith up front as he crushed to the win by 3.4 seconds over Howard. "It's always good to get a win here before the Jesse Hockett-Daniel McMillin Memorial," Smith said. "It's going to be a bigger race that ever and we're really looking forward to it. I want to get back to victory lane. I've got quite a few wins here and I definitely want a second Hockett-McMillin trophy." Bryson Smith wound up third with Jack Wagner fourth and Samuel Wagner fifth. Fast qualifying time went to Bryson Smith of Nixa with a lap of 15.163. Veteran Smith wins 305 thriller: Randy Martin of California, Mo., dove to the low groove in turn four on the final lap to beat race-long leader Chase Koelliker of Elwood, Kan, by .168 seconds for the IMCA RaceSaver 305 feature victory. "I didn't know on that last lap whether he was gonna to the top. I was gonna go to the bottom no matter what, but that kid ran a hell of a race," Martin said. "It feels pretty good to be 65 years old and out-run these younger guys, but there will come a day I'll be sitting up there drinking a beer and watching. "I've raced for 48 years and won at least one race every year. I thought this year we wasn't gonna get it, but luckily I got one tonight." Third-starting Koelliker, 18, took the lead on the opening lap with Randy Martin giving chase. They remained 1-2 with Koelliker with a half-second cushion at the halfway mark on lap 10. Except for a brief lap-3 yellow, the race remained green to the finish. Koelliker looked like a winner until the final time around when Martin found enough speed to catch Koelliker and pass him with the finish line in sight. Landon Muehlberger finished third with Kameron Key fourth and Mike Trent fifth.

- Moran Outduels Sheppard for $50,000 Firecracker 100 Victory
SARVER, PA (June 27, 2026) - Devin Moran emerged victorious in an unforgettable duel with Brandon Sheppard over the final 20 laps, capturing the 20th Annual Firecracker 100 presented by Experience Butler County at Lernerville Speedway. Moran and the Double Down Motorsports team earned $50,000 after taking the lead for the final time on lap 92 of the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series crown jewel event. The victory made Moran the 14th different winner in Firecracker 100 history. Sheppard, who led 80 laps, finished second, while championship points leader Hudson O'Neal completed the Big River Steel podium in third. Brandon Overton rallied from as deep as 18th to finish fourth, and O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year points leader Josh Rice rounded out the top five. Sheppard controlled the race through the opening 79 laps before Moran, who started fourth, closed the gap and made his first pass for the lead on lap 80. Moran paced the field until lap 91, when Sheppard briefly reclaimed the top spot. Moran answered one lap later, completing the race-winning pass on lap 92 and holding off Sheppard over the closing circuits. The victory was the 30th Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win of Moran's career and added his name to the prestigious list of Firecracker 100 champions dating back to the inaugural event in 2007. "I was really good through turns one and two early, but from the center off the corner it started going over the crown and I lost a lot of speed," Moran said in Wieland Victory Lane. "I was just watching Sheppy the whole time, trying to take his air away. A couple of times it got close, and I chopped him a little bit, but that's what you've got to do to win the Firecracker." "I've always loved this place. It's extraordinary to win this race. Roger Sellers is leaving for a cruise tomorrow, so I guess we gave him a little extra spending money. We've had this car for a few years now, and it's been a really good race car. We've had our ups and downs, but we knew if we brought this one out, we'd have a chance." Sheppard, who was seeking his first Firecracker 100 victory, saw the race slip away in the closing laps but remained within 10 points of O'Neal in the championship standings. "He did a good job," Sheppard said of Moran. "I was passing lapped cars using the line I wanted to run, but I got to where I couldn't steer through the center very well. I think it was because we had a softer right-front tire, so I had to diamond the corner more than I wanted. After he got by me, I was able to get back to him, but Devin did a great job. There's so much tough competition out here that any one of these guys can win on any night." O'Neal, who ran second for much of the early portion of the race, was encouraged by the performance after recent struggles on similar track surfaces. "We always want to be better, but this was a huge step in the right direction for us," O'Neal said. "Historically, we've struggled in conditions like this. We knew we needed to improve after last weekend at Smoky Mountain, and I feel like we made progress tonight." Moran's winning Double Down Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and backed by Big River Steel, Millwood Plumbing, Northeastern Fabrication, Ohio Natural Energy, C&W Trucking, Phillips CPA, BOMAG, Anthony's Pizza, Car Source Auto, Hazen Services, McHugh Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Elliott Farms, and Pee Wee's Wrecker Service. Completing the top ten were Max Blair, Michael Norris, Dan Ebert, Garrett Alberson, and Carson Ferguson.

- Lucas Oil Speedway Road to Hockett Round 2 next after Sissom wins Red 'N' Tacky Enduro in Friday Night Frenzy
WHEATLAND, MO. (June 26, 2026) - Josh Sissom turned the Red 'N' Tacky Enduro 150 into a runaway Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Sissom, from Cape Girardeau, started 19th. He took the lead by lap 31 and held it the final 120 circuits to beat Dallas Butchee - the only other car on the lead lap - for the $1,500 victory in the annual marathon. The winner wasted little time grabbing total command after passing Colton Joyner for the lead. The only question was if his car would hold up over the distance, and it did. "These are so much. It's an affordable way to race for people who may not have the budgeting. We paid $500 for this car," Sissom said in victory lane. "Thanks to everybody for coming out. I know these are long and thanks to everybody for staying. "It just worked out on our schedule. I normally race UMP Modifieds over in southeast Missouri. We got in a little trouble with the race track over there and we got to come do this." Eighth-starting Colton Joyner and fourth-starting Jesse Brooks, the 2025 race winner, swapped the lead in the early going with Joyner holding a 2.5-second lead by lap 15. Josh Sissom, who started 19th, became the third leader on lap 31, taking the top spot away from Joyner. Sissom rolled to a 5.3-second lead by lap 50 as Joyner remained in second and Dallas Butchee another 3.3 seconds back in third. By this point, only six cars were running on the lead lap. The total of lead-lap cars was down to five as the race approached the halfway mark with Sissom continuing to cruise at the front, six seconds in from of Joyner receiving the halfway flags on lap 75. Butchee moved into second by lap 81, but was 11 seconds behind the leader. Joyner continued to fade from contention with Brooks moving into third, Brandon Vink fourth and Jason Novak fifth by lap 90. Sissom's gap was a race-high 14.1 seconds over Butchee as he passed the 100-lap mark and the only remaining mystery was if his car could hold together for another 50 laps. Those two were the only cars on the lead lap and more than half of the 30-car starting field had retired as the clock struck midnight. Butchee started to cut into Sissom's lead over the final 20 laps, but it wasn't enough to threaten Sissom took the checkers 11.788 seconds in front in a race that took 56 minutes, 40 seconds to complete. Novak, who started 16th, was three laps down to finish third with Brooks fourth and Eric Lampe fifth. A total of 133 cars checked into the pits, including 59 Midwest Mods, in the special Friday Night Frenzy program. Ewing earns Super Stocks win: Blaine Ewing of Green Ridge, Mo., started on the pole and led every circuit in capturing his second Hickamo Super Stocks feature win of the season, outdistancing runner-up Johnny Fennewald. As Ewing blazed the early pace, Terry Schultz and Fennewald swapped the runner-up spot on a lap-four restart and again three laps later with Ewing holding a half-second edge over Schulz. Ewing increased his margin to 2.3-seconds over Fennewald when caution flew again on lap 13. Ewing, who also won at Wheatland on June 20th, held on to win his fifth overall feature in 2026, beating Fennewald by 2.9 seconds. Jacob Rexing rallied from 12th to third with Aaron Poe fourth and Mike Striegel fifth. Midwest Mods: Brian Meyer of Concordia, Mo., held off Tyler Knudtson of Lebanon throughout the 20-lap Midwest Mods feature, earning his second overall win of the season. Front-row starters Meyer and Knudtson ran 1-2 from the start, though Meyer never was able to make it a comfortable drive to victory. Meyer edged away to a half-second lead when action slowed for a caution on lap eight. Blake Ellis worked his way from 14th at the start to third by the mid point on lap 10 as Meyer and Knudtson continued to set the pace. As the race entered the final five laps, the top two continued to battle, but Meyer was up to the challenge, holding off his pursuer for the entire 20 laps. Meyer won by .617 seconds over Knudtson with Ellis third, Logan Roark fourth and David Wood finishing fifth. Stovall's late pass earns Legends win: Jett Stovall, a 15-year-old from Billings, took the lead with two laps remaining and held on to capture his first win of 2026 and first ever at Lucas Oil Speedway in the Legends main event. Cale Riggs, a 19-year-old from Hatch, N.M., grabbed the lead on lap two after pole-starting David Lawson paced the opening circuit. Stovall soon moved into third with Riggs maintaining a one-second lead by lap 10. Riggs' lead was down to a half-second when caution on lap 12 bunched the field for a three-lap shootout. Stovall took the lead after the restart and beat Chance Gilbert by a half-second for the win as Riggs slipped to third on the final lap. Austin Azeez finished fourth with Lawson fifth.

- Thornton and Sheppard Collect Friday Night Preliminary Wins at Lernerville
SARVER, PA (June 26, 2026) - Ricky Thornton Jr. and Brandon Sheppard each earned $5,000 victories Friday night, winning their respective 25-lap preliminary features at Lernerville Speedway. The twin preliminary features set the lineups for Saturday's four heat races, which will determine the starting field for the 20th Annual Firecracker 100 presented by Experience Butler County. The crown jewel event will pay $50,000 to the winner. Thornton claimed the opening feature for the 58th LOLMDS victory of his career in one of the season's most eventful races. Dan Ebert recorded the best Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series finish of his career in second, while two-time Firecracker 100 winner Brandon Overton rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Josh Rice finished fourth, and current Midwest Sheet Metal championship points leader Hudson O'Neal completed the top five. O'Neal led the opening 12 laps before slipping in turn four, allowing Thornton - who started fourth - to take over the lead. Rice reclaimed second during the frantic lap-13 action before Overton moved into the runner-up spot on lap 17. Ebert then charged into second with five laps remaining and closed on Thornton in the final laps but came up just short. The victory positions the two-time Firecracker 100 winner for a favorable starting spot in Saturday's heat races. "I thought we had a really good car," Thornton said. "We built a new one coming here, and I told (Anthony) Burroughs I didn't really want to know what was going on - just do what you think we need to do. I felt like our car was really good. Sheppy looked really good around the bottom in the second feature, so I think we've still got a little room to improve down there. I was just a little too tight to be as good as he was. Hats off to all the fans for coming out. Hopefully we can get tomorrow's show in." Thornton's winning Koehler Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and backed by Knight's Companies, Hoker Trucking, Coltman Farms Racing, Capital Waste, Elite Ready Mix, Certified Inspection Services, Strange Oval, SI Towing and Recovery, and Sunoco Race Fuels. Completing the top ten in the first feature were Carson Ferguson, Brian Shirley, Chub Frank, Eric Wilson, and Brenden Smith. In the second 25-lap feature, Brandon Sheppard charged from the seventh starting position and passed Devin Moran for the lead on lap seven, then pulled away to score his 41st career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory. Moran, the defending Series champion, led the opening six laps before Sheppard used the bottom groove to take command. From there, Sheppard steadily extended his advantage, crossing the finish line 2.120 seconds ahead of Moran. Max Blair slipped past five-time and defending Lernerville track champion Michael Norris on the final lap to finish third, while Garrett Alberson rounded out the top five after starting 10th. "It's one of those deals where, starting that far back, you just go where everyone else isn't," Sheppard said. "I knew my car was good no matter where I put it. I was just biding my time and watching where everyone was running. The top was pretty treacherous after seeing guys go over the edge in the first feature, so I didn't want to go up there unless I absolutely had to. Our car has been really balanced all year, and it was good again tonight. I just messed up both qualifying laps, or we probably would've started a little farther forward." Sheppard's winning Mark Richards Racing, Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and backed by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Ace Metal Works, Performance Grading, Petroff Towing, Franklin Enterprises, Sunoco Race Fuels, Gunter's Honey, Stiles Marine and Maintenance, and Collins Brothers Towing. Completing the top ten in the second feature were Dillon McCowan, Alex Ferree, Tyler Wyant, Gregg Satterlee, and Ryan Montgomery.

- McDowell Scores Popular Victory in Mountain Moonshine Classic at Smoky Mountain
MARYVILLE, TN (June 20, 2026) - Dale McDowell led all 60 laps of the Mountain Moonshine Classic on Saturday night at Smoky Mountain Speedway, earning a popular hometown victory and collecting $30,000 for his 11th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. The victory was McDowell's first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph triumph since winning the Topless 100 in 2023 and his first Series victory at Smoky Mountain Speedway since 2016. Devin Moran charged from seventh to finish second after passing Friday night winner Brandon Sheppard on lap 45. Moran closed the gap in the closing laps but crossed the finish line 1.113 seconds behind McDowell. Sheppard rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third after finishing second for the first 44 laps of the race. Jake O'Neil recorded the best Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series finish of his career with a fourth-place effort after running inside the top five throughout the event. Chris Madden completed the top five. With his third-place finish, Sheppard trimmed Hudson O'Neal's championship lead to just 20 points heading into next weekend's event at Lernerville Speedway. McDowell's victory was his 13th overall win at Smoky Mountain Speedway since 2008 and came in front of a home-state crowd. "I anticipated that second start and wasn't sure where the grip was going to be," McDowell said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "Things just kind of fell our way. The car was really good, and the guys have worked hard on it. I've given them some feedback, and sometimes it's probably wrong, but they keep working at it." "It was an awesome night to win close to home. Like Kyle Busch said, you never know when the last one is going to be, so I'm sure glad to get one here. Shane made a few changes from Friday night, and the car was balanced really well. I was able to pick my way through traffic and guide it where I needed to go." Moran made a late charge after overtaking Sheppard but couldn't quite reel in the veteran leader. "Dale McDowell is Dale McDowell for a reason," Moran said. "I'm ready for him to retire. When he got to traffic, I felt like I had a really good run. I was pushing hard and probably overheated the right rear tire trying to get there. Once I got to him and slid it, that pretty much hurt my chances. Still, coming from seventh to finish second isn't bad." Sheppard believed the race was decided in the opening laps. "The initial start is what lost the race for us," Sheppard said. "I saw Dale rolling a little bit and was waiting to go, but I got lifted from behind and couldn't launch like I needed to. Once he got out front, we were hoping traffic or a restart would give us an opportunity. I had a good restart and got by Madden, but on the next one I got too close to Dale entering turn one, lost the air on the nose, and Devin got by me." McDowell's winning Shane McDowell Racing Team Zero Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and backed by Reece Monument Company, Remtek Enterprises, Otterly Baths, AAA General Contracting, Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging, Klotz Synthetic Lubricants, Mark IV, M&S Motors, Jason Wright Excavating, Black Rock Enterprises, BSI Well Service, Northeastern Fabrication, and Campbell Insulation. Completing the top ten were Carson Ferguson, Max Blair, Kyle Bronson, Sam Seawright, and Dillon McCowan.

- Pursley earns first Late Model win to highlight Challenge Cup Round 2 at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (June 20, 2026) - Dayton Pursley overcame nerves and pressure from a pair of challengers to earn his first Late Model victory on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. The 23-year-old from Hermitage held off Kaeden Cornell and JC Morton to prevail in the Hermitage Lumber Late Models for a $1,000 pay day in Round 2 of the Pitts Hmes and Realty Challenge Cup. A total of 117 cars checked into the pits and other feature winners included Wyatt Gaggero (Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modifieds), Jon Sheets (Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mods), Mason Beck (O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars) and Blaine Ewing (Hickamo Super Stocks). Pursley, who's driven Modifieds and B Mods at Lucas Oil Speedway during his young career, and also dabbled in sprint cars, was ecstatic in victory lane. He grew up coming to the track watching his dad, Jason Pursley, race Modifieds. "First of all I have to say thank you God for even letting me be here and do this," Pursley said. "But it does feel good. I'd like to say happy birthday to my mom and happy Father's Day to my dad and all the other fathers. "I don't even know what to say. I was so nervous. I had to go (to the bathroom) before (the race) and I didn't even go. I was too nervous. I want to thank my wife for being here. I don't know, just everybody who helps me." Pursley started on the pole and opened a half-second lead over Cornell by lap 10. The second half of the race saw Cornell move to the high groove in turns three and four and the low side in one and two in an effort to chase down the leader. Meanwhile, Morton advanced into third with those three well ahead of the field. As Cornell and Morton battled it out over the final laps, Pursley was able to take it to the checkers for a .457-second win over Cornell. Morton wound up third with Tucker Cox fourth and Cole Henson fifth. The Challenge Cup events pay extra money with $1,000 going to the winners in the USRA Modifieds and Late Models, and $750 to win the other three classes. Gaggero prevails in Modifieds: Eighth-starting Wyatt Gaggero took command after a caution midway through the Arctic Food Equipment USRA Modified feature and drove away from there for his first win of the season. Gaggero, from Wichita, Kan., beat Henry Chambers by more than three seconds to pick up the $1,000 victory. Chase Sigg led the opening lap before Chambers took the top spot on lap two. Chambers opened a three-second lead over Gaggero before a lap-nine caution wiped away that margin. The yellow was exactly what Gaggero needed, as he took the lead on the restart. Gaggero dominated form there and wound up prevailing by 3.4 seconds over Chambers by the finish. Sigg was third with Paden Phillips fourth and Cole Campbell fifth. Sheets takes B-Mod victory: Jon Sheets' flag-to-flag victory in the Clear Creek Golf Cars USRA B-Mod feature saw him beat J.T. Carroll by just over a half-second. It was Sheets' second feature win of the season at Lucas Oil Speedway. Sheets, of Nevada, grabbed the lead at the start after a melee before an official lap could be completed saw several cars either eliminated or head ot the pits. He opened a 1.5-second margin over Morton by the halfway point on lap 10 with 12th-starting J.T. Carroll into third and Kris Jackson, who started 14th, into fourth. Morton rolled to a stop atop turn two on lap 11 to bring out a caution and put an end his chances. Sheets maintained his lead as the race remained caution-free the rest of the way and held off Carroll by .602 seconds. "I guess on that start I was moving pretty well and I saw carnage everywhere," Sheets said. "It was a long race. The race track was good, maybe a little bit top-dominant but the track must have been pretty good as the 66 (Ryan Gillmore) went to the tail and raced back up to third." Gillmore was third with Jackson fourth and Cayden Stacye fifth. Ewing wins Super Stocks thriller: Blaine Ewing of Green Ridge, Mo., made the sixth and final lead change the winner, coming out of the final turn, beating teammate Terry Schultz for the Hickamo Super Stock feature. It appeared that Schultz would pick up the win before Ewing ran him down in sight of the finish line. Ewing's margin at the checkers was .228 seconds in his first Lucas Oil Speedway win of 2026. "Honestly I didn't even see the white flag," Ewing said. "It just worked out for us. That's our other team car. I know it real well and it's fast. This place has been kryptonite for me these last couple of years, but I think we're finally starting to get it figured out." Pole starter and first-lap leader Mike Striegel saw his car lose power entering turn three on lap two. Fortunately, all the cars closing in navigated around him. Ewing led a lap after the restart before Johnny Fennewald took command on lap three. Ewing regained the lead on lap eight, passing Fennewald coming off turn two. But it was Schultz who wrested second from Fennewald on lap 11 before passing Ewing for the top spot the next time around. Ewing worked last-lap magic by using a lapped car as pick in the final turn, passing Schultz for the victory. Fennewald finished third with Aaron Poe fourth and Jacob Rexing fifth. Beck takes Stock Cars feature: Mason Beck of Urbana captured his first victory of the season, leading wire-to-wire in the 20-lap O'Reilly USRA Stock cars feature. Beck started on the pole and set the pace from the start with Jayden Bears of Kansas City giving chase. Those two separated from the field by lap five right before a trio of cautions slowed the action. Bears pulled alongside Beck on lap 12, but was unable to nudge into the lead. The two remained in a tight battle as caution flew on lap 17, just after Beck led by a few inches at the start-finish line. The three-lap shootout to the finish saw Beck hang on to beat William Garner by .816 seconds with Dawson Fennewald third, Darrell Hurt fourth and Bryan White fifth. "After I rolled this thing at (USRA) Nationals last year I haven't felt comfortable in the car and honestly about halfway through the race, I didn't feel comfortable again. It just won't do what I want," Beck said. "In a stacked field like we've got, everybody in here, you can't count out."

- Sheppard Sweeps Opening Night of Mountain Moonshine Classic at Smoky Mountain
MARYVILLE, TN (June 19, 2026) - Brandon Sheppard completed a clean sweep Friday night at Smoky Mountain Speedway, leading all 40 laps of the opening night of the Mountain Moonshine Classic to earn his fourth Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of the season. The New Berlin, Illinois driver earned $10,000 for the victory after setting overall fast time, winning his heat race, and capping off a perfect evening in Wieland Victory Lane. The win marked the 40th Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph of Sheppard's career. Sheppard crossed the finish line 1.342 seconds ahead of Dale McDowell, who finished second. Garrett Alberson rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Chris Madden and Sam Seawright completed the top five. With championship points leader Hudson O'Neal finishing eighth, Sheppard trimmed his deficit from 150 points to 80 heading into Saturday night's $30,000-to-win Mountain Moonshine Classic finale. "It's hard to win here. It's nothing like any place I grew up racing," Sheppard said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "I think we won a Southern All Stars race here a long time ago, but we haven't been able to get it done since. Anytime you can run up front with Dale (McDowell) and those guys at a place like this, you know you've accomplished something." "This is our Eldora car, and I knew it was really good. I was happy with it from hot laps on. The guys did a phenomenal job getting it back together, and it was definitely a fast piece." Sheppard admitted navigating lapped traffic was one of the biggest challenges of the race. "Honestly, while I was leading, I was already thinking about what I was going to do when I got to traffic," he said. "I know better than to try passing those guys on the outside here, but they were racing three-wide in front of me. When Dale showed me a nose, I knew I had to figure out a way to get back by him and get to the bottom. I just bided my time and made it work." McDowell challenged Sheppard on multiple occasions but was never able to complete a pass for the lead. "I think I had a chance, but I hit the wall once and damaged a spoiler support, and that hurt us," McDowell said. "I was trying to widen my entry and thought I had an opening going into turn one. It was a good night for us. Once the race stayed green, I thought lapped traffic might give us an opportunity, but Brandon had really good speed in clean air. We'll work on it and see what we can do tomorrow night." Alberson continued his strong season with a third-place finish and an important gain in the championship standings. "I needed the start to go a little better," Alberson said. "If I could have gotten to Sheppard's door at the start-finish line, maybe it would have been a different race. He did exactly what he was supposed to do. We just need a little bit more. This car is really close, and honestly, this feels like a win for us. This place has been tricky for us in the past, so it's a big confidence boost." Sheppard's winning Mark Richards Racing Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engine and backed by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Ace Metal Works, Performance Grading, Petroff Towing, Franklin Enterprises, Sunoco Race Fuels, Gunter's Honey, Stiles Marine and Maintenance, and Collins Brothers Towing. Completing the top ten were Devin Moran, Ricky Thornton Jr., Hudson O'Neal, Chris Ferguson, and Josh Rice. The evening concluded with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series crew chiefs taking center stage in a Crown Vic Challenge. Jason Durham, crew chief for Hudson O'Neal, claimed the victory in the 15-lap event. Danny White, crew chief for Brandon Sheppard, finished second, while Anthony Burroughs, crew chief for Ricky Thornton Jr., rounded out the podium in third.

- Pierce Wins Third Career Show-Me 100 After Starting 20th
WHEATLAND, MO (May 24, 2026) - Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Illinois charged from the 20th starting position to capture the 34th Annual Show-Me 100 presented by Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging on Sunday night at Lucas Oil Speedway. Pierce took the lead on lap 61 and led the remainder of the 100-lap feature to earn $75,000 and secure his second consecutive Show-Me 100 victory. The win marked Pierce's first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph of the 2026 season and his third career victory in the prestigious Crown Jewel event. Brandon Sheppard advanced from sixth to finish second, while Jonathan Davenport—who led a race-high 54 laps—rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Garrett Alberson finished fourth, and current Series points leader Hudson O'Neal completed the top five. Davenport and Josh Rice started on the front row after winning Friday night's Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson and Cowboy Classic features, respectively. Davenport led the opening 17 laps before Rice surged to the front and paced the field for six circuits. Davenport reclaimed the lead on lap 24 and appeared in control until lap 61, when he pushed high exiting turn two, allowing both Pierce and Sheppard to drive past. Pierce then pulled away to win by 1.296 seconds over Sheppard. With the victory, Pierce became the first driver to win back-to-back Show-Me 100s since Jimmy Owens accomplished the feat in 2012 and 2013. The win was the 30th Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of Pierce's career, tying him with Billy Moyer and Wendell Wallace as three-time winners of the event, which began in 1993. "We were off during the preliminary nights again this year, and honestly I didn't think we had a shot to win like we did last year," Pierce said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "The rain changed everything, and the track crew gave us a completely different racetrack. You never run the same setup here—it keeps you guessing." "The racetrack had a lot of character tonight, and luckily it suited us. My guys worked their butts off all weekend. Every time we came into the pits, we changed something. Saying we threw the kitchen sink at it is probably an understatement." Sheppard was attempting to improve on his previous best Show-Me 100 finish of second, which came in 2021. "I think we had a little different tire combination than Bobby," Sheppard said. "I felt like I couldn't run many laps around the top before it started to go away, so I was trying to really hit the bottom in turns three and four and slowly creep toward him. I probably didn't move around enough, but I was trying to take care of my tires. A lot of guys on the same tire strategy faded late." Davenport's race-leading effort ended after contact with the rough surface affected his car during the closing laps. "I don't know if we bent something or what, but we started bottoming out really bad," Davenport said. "I was trying to find the smoothest part of the racetrack. The track crew actually did a really good job because there were multiple grooves at the end. Me, Sheppard, and Pierce were all trying different things. I just couldn't slow down and launch off the bottom like some of those guys could." Pierce's winning Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and backed by Low Voltage Solutions, Rio Grande Waste Services, Churchill Transport, Collins Brothers Towing, Carnaghi Towing, Leka Tree Service, Fort Knox Safes & Vaults, and First Farmers Bank & Trust. Completing the top ten were Ricky Thornton Jr., Brandon Overton, Clay Harris, Chris Ferguson, and Carson Ferguson.

- Pierce charges from 20th to victory lane at 34th annual Show-Me 100
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 24, 2026) - The right side of Bobby Pierce's car was beaten and battered in victory lane, even part of the spoiler missing from slapping Lucas Oil Speedway's turn-four cement wall as he charged from his 20th starting position. Turns out that $75,000 will buy plenty of sheet metal. Finding speed that had been missing all weekend, using holes in the dirt surface and contact with the wall as a springboard, Pierce successfully defended his title at Sunday night's 34th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging. Pierce had to win a B-Main to make the starting field for the 100-lap feature. He took the lead on lap 61 and held off Brandon Sheppard and Jonathan Davenport the rest of the way. The Oakwood, Ill., driver also won the race in 2017. He became only the fourth driver with three or more Show-Me 100 victories joining the late Scott Bloomquist, Jimmy Owens and Wendell Wallace in that exclusive club. Owens was the last back-to-back winner, winning three straight in 2011, 2012 and 2013. "Man, that's awesome," Pierce said. "I remember when I was first getting started in Late Models, Jimmy Owens was the guys to beat here, and Scott, of course. Just an incredible group of guys. They're both from Tennessee and this track is a mixture of Tennessee and Illinois, man. The middle you have to drive like it's Tennessee and the top you have to drive like Illinois. "It's just awesome to be a part of that list and come back and repeat this thing. This is the reason we came here. I think we're the only (World of Outlaws) guy to show up. We had a tough last weekend last week, we have a tough week ahead of us. We really needed to get home today so we could work on a new car, but came to defend our title and it worked out." Delayed one day by rain, the program saw preliminary feature winners Davenport and Josh Rice on the front row. Pierce, who struggled mightily on Thursday and Friday, won the second B-Main to start outside of row 10. Optimism was not soaring on race day, but Pierce and his team were the personification of determination. He said a reporter asked him on Saturday about his chances and he shook his head. It was a year ago when he started eighth and captured the lead on lap 69 and never gave it up. "I kind of sucked on the prelim nights and ended up winning on Saturday," Pierce said of his 2025 win. "I said, 'man, we are way off. I don't see that happening at all.' But it rained and man, they give us a different race track every night. It keeps us guessing. "Where the holes were, I was making speed so I was trying to hit them." Pierce led the final 39 laps this time after Davenport paced 54 of the first 60. It didn't take long for Pierce to charge from 20th into the top 10 in an event that had five cautions, the final one on lap 93 that gave Sheppard and Davenport one final chance to chase him down. "I couldn't run very many laps around the top before I started to feel bad," said Sheppard, of New Berlin, Ill. "I was just trying ... if I could hit two laps in a row right in three and four, I could creep to him a little bit. I felt like I was pretty good in one and two, I just didn't really move around as much as I needed to. "I was just trying to take care of my tires and a lot of guys who ran the same tire combination I did fell back." Davenport and Rice ran 1-2 in the early going. The leaders caught lapped traffic by lap 12 and the first lead change came on lap 18 when Rice went around Davenport on the outside off turn two. Davenport returned the favor and took the lead away from Rice on lap 24 at the same place on the track, with Sheppard third and Hudson O'Neal fourth. Pierce had charged to sixth from 20th by lap 35 as the long green-flag run continued. Caution No. 1 flew on lap 41 as Davenport held a two-second lead over Rice with Sheppard, O'Neal and Pierce rounding out the top five. Sheppard took second away from Rice two laps after the restart as Davenport bolted to a 1.8-second lead. Pierce's march took him to second on lap 58 with a slider on Sheppard in turns three and four. As Pierce closed on Davenport, Clay Stuckey and Mason Oberkramer spun to bring out a caution on lap 59. That was all Pierce needed as he would soon take advantage on a rare Davenport mistake after the restart. Davenport slipped high in turn two and Pierce slid past on the inside to take the lead. Pierce quickly opened a one-second lead over Sheppard with Davenport settling into third, four seconds behind Pierce. Lapped traffic was no problem for Pierce, who doubled the size of his lead by lap 73 with O'Neal taking third away from Davenport. Pierce held a two-second lead with 20 to go. Things got more interesting on lap 83 when caution No. 4 waved for debris on the track, from part of Pierce's spoiler. Davenport passed Sheppard on the restart and gave chase to Pierce, who continually pop the outside wall in turn four. Sheppard went back to second on lap 86. Pierce said that hitting the wall coming off turn four actually helped him gain speed off the turn at times. The speedway reworked turns three and four in the offseason, taking out the shelf atop the turns with banking progressing all the way to the wall. Even though he's notorious for seeking the high groove, as is necessary in many tracks in his home state, Pierce said he was skeptical about the cushion getting to the wall. "I was pretty pessimistic. I told a bunch of fans back (in the pits) that I don't see (the cushion) getting up there. I think it's too flat, but we'll see," Pierce said. "It got up there.: Pierce held a 1.2-second lead on lap 93 when the fifth caution, again for debris. That set the stage for a seven-lap shootout. Continuing to live on the edge of the top groove, Pierce held on and beat Sheppard by 1.3 seconds. "Luckily just the way the track was and the car was great, too," Pierce added. "My guys worked their butts off this weekend. Every time we were in the pits, we were changing something. Throwing the kitchen sink at it is an understatement." Davenport settled for third with Alberson fourth and O'Neal fifth. "I don't know if we bent something, but we started bottoming out really bad through the middle," Davenport said. "We were just trying to find the smoothest place. They did a pretty good job, the track crew. There were three lanes at the end and me and Sheppard and Pierce were all trying to do something different. "I guess third is better than a poke in the eye, but leading so much and we've been so good here that is just sucks to run third." Rice faded to 14th and the top local finisher was Urbana's Dillon McCowan, who wound up 12th. Ingram wins USRA Stock Cars: Eddie Ingram of Linn Valley, Kan., took the lead on lap six and drove away to the O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars feature prior to the Show-Me 100. Pole-starting Shayne Bailey checked out to a sizable lead over Ingram and William Garner by the first caution on lap five. Ingram took the lead away on the restart with Fennewald rallying from fifth to second. Bailey pulled off the track the next time around, leaving Ingram and Fennewald running 1-2 at the halfway point. Action was slowed again on lap 11 for a three-car spin in turn four, wiped out Ingram's 1.4-second lead. Ingram quickly rebuilt, even extending his leading margin after the restart. He kept pouring in on and beat Jayden Bears by 1.7 seconds. Garner finished third with Fennewald fourth and Mason Beck fifth. "This track was awesome. It doesn't get any better than this," Ingram said in victory lane. "It's a super cool place and I"m glad they had us down here. There's not a bad car in the whole field. It was fun to race with those guys."

- Rice Wins Cowboy Classic on Friday Night at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO (May 22, 2026) - Josh Rice of Crittenden, Kentucky led the final six laps Friday night to capture the Cowboy Classic at Lucas Oil Speedway, earning his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of the 2026 season. Rice, the current O'Reilly Auto Parts Rookie of the Year points leader, collected $10,000 for his third career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory. Garrett Alberson, who was forced to a backup car after flipping while leading his heat race, finished second. Chris Ferguson stormed from the 14th starting position to take the lead on lap eight and ultimately rounded out the Big River Steel podium in third. Current Midwest Sheet Metal championship points leader Hudson O'Neal finished fourth, while Brandon Overton completed the top five. Overton led the opening seven laps of the 45-lap feature, which had been postponed 24 hours due to Thursday night rain. Ferguson then charged from the outside of row seven to the lead in just eight laps and appeared poised for victory after pacing the field for the next 25 circuits. Alberson took command on lap 33, setting up a thrilling three-car battle between Alberson, Ferguson, and Rice. Working the bottom groove to perfection, Rice surged past both drivers on lap 40 and held on the rest of the way for the victory. Rice's previous two Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series wins both came at his home track, Florence Speedway, where he is a two-time Ralph Latham Memorial winner. Friday's triumph came in his first-ever start at Lucas Oil Speedway. "I can't thank James Ratliff enough for sticking with me," Rice said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "I was doubting myself and wondering what in the world I had done. We tried some things Thursday, and this car has been so good. We just missed it on tires in that first race, and I thought we'd be much better than we were." "This place is awesome. If you didn't enjoy that race, you probably need to go home because that was a good one. Coming here, I didn't think this was a place we could win at - I just wanted to survive the weekend. I definitely didn't think my first Longhorn win would come in a Lucas Oil race." Alberson overcame a difficult night and still put himself in position to contend for the win. "I really wanted that one bad," Alberson said. "It's been a long day, and I made too many mistakes there late and knocked the spoiler off. But my dad always taught us to keep a good attitude. The first time I crashed a race car, they told me to get right back in another one. That's just racing." Ferguson, who earlier in the evening finished second to Jonathan Davenport in the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson feature, led a race-high 25 laps before fading late. "This race car was awesome," Ferguson said. "We broke some stuff there at the end and just couldn't race with those guys the last couple laps. But it was definitely 'cowboy up' tonight, and honestly I had a blast. We passed a lot of really good cars. Congrats to Josh and Garrett - that was a fun race." Rice's winning James, Jennifer, and Justin Ratliff/Ratliff Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Vic Hill Racing Engine and backed by Glenwood Electric, MC Tank, Rice Excavating and Plumbing, Chain Locker, MGL Auto Sales, Jessie Insurance Agency, Lonkard Construction, JRR Motor Sales, JRR Trucking, Berea Collision, Keltner Contracting, Sunoco Race Fuels, and Big Al's Guns and Outdoors. Completing the top ten were Jonathan Davenport, Dillon McCowan, Brian Shirley, Max Blair, and Brandon Sheppard.

- Rice, Davenport win Show-Me 100 preliminaries with Saturday finale next at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 22, 2026) - The best was saved for last on Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway as Josh Rice captured a wildly entertaining Cowboy Classic to conclude Night 2 of the 34th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging. Rice, leading contender for Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Rookie of the Year, took the lead with five laps to in the 45-lapper, which had been postponed due to rain on Thursday night. Earlier, Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga., led all 40 laps to win the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson as drivers earned points in both features toward the starting lineup for Saturday night's $75,000-to-win, 100-lap feature. "It's cool," Rice said in victory lane. "That has to be a race of the year candidate. Man, that was awesome. I'm speechless, honestly. I did not think I was gonna show up here and be good. It's crazy. I can't thank everybody enough." Rice, 27, is making his first appearance at Lucas Oil Speedway. After setting fast qualifying time for the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson portion of the program he finished eight in that feature and is assured of starting near the front of Saturday's finale. In a race with three leaders on a track that third-place Chris Ferguson said was definitely "cowboy up," there was no lacking of action. Ferguson went from 14th at the start to the lead in just eight laps and led a race-high 25 laps. In a wild, three-way battle with the laps ticking away and cars bouncing about, Rice took the lead as Ferguson slipped and Garrett Alberson - who had quite the night himself - went into second. Alberson, of Las Cruces, N.M., destroyed his primary car in a wild flip in turn one while leading the first heat of the Gibson Tribute program. He unloaded a backup car and settled for 25th in that feature before refocusing after the wild ride for the Cowboy Classic feature. "Luckily my dad instilled in us good attitudes. One of the first days I ever drove a race car, I crashed the bejesus out of it and he told me I had to get back in another one. It's like get back on the horse, it's part of it." Davenport shredded a tire on lap 11 to bring out the caution. Alberson settled into second behind Ferguson after the restart, a second back Ferguson by lap 20 as Rice moved to third. By lap 25, the top two had separated with Rice, Ricky Thornton Jr. and Hudson O'Neal battling for third. Meanwhile, local fans were cheering LOLMDS rookie Dillon McCowan of nearby Urbana. After taking a provisional and starting 25th, McCowan had charged to sixth just in front of Davenport, who was rallying from his early race flat. The yellow-flag parade continued with another on lap 30 as Clay Stuckey slowed with a right-rear issue. Rice had just taken over second with Alberson third with 15 to go. This time Ferguson couldn't hold off the pursuers as Alberson took advantage of the restart by sliding around Ferguson on lap 33. The leaders caught lapped traffic with five to go, darting and diving out of turn four with Rice emerging in front to complete lap 40. Rice, the leader of the series Rookie of the Year chase, took it home from there by beating Alberson by 2.4 seconds for his third LOLMDS feature win. "This place is awesome. If you didn't enjoy that, you need to go home," Rice said as fans cheered his victory lane interview. "Coming here I did not think this was gonna be a place ... I just wanted to get through it. I didn't think we'd be a contender." Ferguson, the 2022 Show-Me 100 winner, settled for third with O'Neal fourth, Overton fifth, Davenport sixth and McCowan seventh. "This race car was awesome. I hated that we broke some stuff and couldn't race with them guys the last couple of laps," Ferguson said. "I've got a lot of stuff to fix for tomorrow. I had a blast out there and passed a lot of good cars. Congrats to Josh and Garrett. I'm a little disappointed, but that was a fun race." The 13th annual Cowboy Classic honors the late Allen "Cowboy" Chancellor, long-time owner-promoter of the MLRA Late Model Series. Davenport rolls in Gibson Tribute: Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga., made quick work of the field in winning the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson, leading all 40 laps in an event that took only 13 minutes to complete. There was just one caution, on lap two. Davenport was unstoppable - as he so often is at Wheatland. "Set-up wise we were pretty close. I could run the top, the bottom and the middle," Davenport said after the $10,000 victory, the first of two features on the evening for the Late Models. Davenport set the pace from the start, with a lap two spin by Garrett Alberson briefly slowing the action. When the 40-lapper resumed, Davenport opened a 1.6-second lead over Chris Ferguson after just five laps and nearly two seconds by lap 10. Eighth-starting Brandon Overton moved to third by that point. Ferguson, of Mt. Holly, N.C., sliced the deficit to just under one second over the next five circuits as the leaders began to deal with lapped traffic. As the race continued a lengthy green-flag run, Davenport was able to maintain his margin by the mid point with Ferguson and Overton continuing to run 2-3 as 14th-starting Brandon Sheppard advanced into fourth. "We got held up there when we first caught lapped traffic because I didn't really know where to go," Davenport said. "Once I felt like I couldn't move around, then we got rolling pretty good." Sheppard grabbed third on lap 29, but Davenport was beginning to check out as he led Ferguson by 2.8 seconds with Sheppard another 1.2 behind Ferguson. Without a caution to give anyone else a chance, Davenport continued to pour it on. He wound up 3.66 seconds in front of Ferguson at the finish in taking his 11th victory at Lucas Oil Speedway since the spring of 2023 and 96th career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. It was win No. 4 on the series this season. "This race track changed like five different times during that feature and I think it was about ready to change one more time," Davenport said. "I tried to miss the holes whenever I could. It had a little character to it, but what an awesome race track." Sheppard finished third with Overton fourth and Mason Oberkramer fifth. Seriers points leader and 2021 Show-Me 100 winner Hudson O'Neal was sixth. "The track had character and we weren't really ready for that," said Ferguson. "I was cowboy-ing up there a couple of times. But JD's so good here, he was kind of setting his own pace. It was hard to dodge the holes and also dodge the lapped cars. "I saw he was struggling with a couple of them and it kind of let me get close, then he got by them. I'm just tickled to be here." A total of 51 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series and 27 Hickamo Super Stocks drivers checked into the pits. The three-night event, which culminates with Saturday's $75,000-to-win, 100-lap main event, pays $10,000 to win the preliminary Late Model features. Drivers accumulate points on their finishes both nights to help set the lineup for Saturday night's finale. Rice was the Allstar Performance fast qualifier, with a time at 15.198 seconds out of Group A. Davenport paced Group B for the second straight night, at 15.257 seconds. The race honored Don and Billie Gibson, who started the Show-Me 100 in 1993 at their West Plains Motor Speedway. Schultz grabs Hickamo Super Stocks win: Terry Schultz of Sedalia led wire-to-wire in the 20-lap Hickamo Super Stocks feature, beating his teammate Blaine Ewing. "It was lucky we started up front because I think it was gonna be tricky to pass," Schultz said, noting his front row starting spot. After three cautions in the first nine laps, Schultz dominated the final half of the race. He pulled away to win by about five car lengths over Ewing with Mike Striegel holding off Johnny Fennewald for third. Finale on Saturday: Opening ceremonies are set for 6:45 p.m. Saturday with B-Mains and the Midwest Sheet Metal Challenge setting the final lineup for rthe $75,000-to-win 100-lap main event. O'Reilly USRA Stock Cars also will beon the program. Colonel Joshua Pope, the Commander at the 509th Maintenance Group, Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri will serve as Grand Marshal as Lucas Oil Speedway pays tribute to the active military and veterans during the Memorial Day Weekend. Kansas native Travis Marvin will perform the National Anthem during Saturday's opening ceremonies.

- Davenport Wins Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO (May 22, 2026) - Jonathan Davenport continued his dominance at Lucas Oil Speedway during the 2026 season, capturing the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson on Friday night at the "Diamond of Dirt Tracks." The three-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion remained undefeated at the Wheatland facility this season after sweeping the April events and adding another victory Friday night. The win marked Davenport's fourth LOLMDS triumph of 2026 and the 96th Series victory of his career. Chris Ferguson, the 2022 Show-Me 100 winner, moved into second on lap two and remained there the rest of the race, finishing more than three seconds behind Davenport in the $10,000 main event. Brandon Sheppard charged from the 14th starting position to round out the Big River Steel podium in third. Brandon Overton finished fourth, while Missouri driver Mason Oberkramer recorded the best LOLMDS finish of his career in fifth. Davenport, seeking his third career Show-Me 100 victory on Saturday night, led all 40 laps in the first of two feature events contested Friday after Thursday's rain-postponed Cowboy Classic was added to the schedule. "I think the track was really maneuverable," Davenport said in Lucas Oil Victory Lane. "It changed five different times during the feature, and I felt like it was about to change one more time near the end. Once the middle started rolling and those wet crumbs moved up toward the cushion, I thought the top might come back in." "The track had a lot of character to it, and we raced all over it. I got held up a little when I first caught traffic because I wasn't sure where to go, but once I figured out where I could move around, we got rolling pretty good." Ferguson, who started fourth, stayed within striking distance for much of the race but settled for second. "We went a little harder on tires than most people, and honestly I don't think we were fully ready for how much character the track had," Ferguson said. "JD is so good here. He could kind of set his own pace, but I tried to keep pressure on him whenever I could. He was probably the better car—I just struggled getting through traffic." Sheppard continued his recent momentum with another podium finish and now sits second in the championship standings behind Hudson O'Neal. "Our car was really good once we could move around and manage our tires," Sheppard said. "We've struggled more than we wanted to early in the night, but once the track slows down, our balance really comes to us. I'm still trying to figure out how to qualify fast here because it's definitely tricky." Davenport's winning Lance and Darla Landers/Double L Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and backed by Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging, Nutrien Ag Solutions, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, and Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas. Completing the top ten were Hudson O'Neal, Chase Junghans, Josh Rice, Brian Shirley, and Daniel Hilsabeck.

- Rain postpones Show-Me 100 opening feature until Friday night at Lucas Oil Speedway
WHEATLAND, MO. (May 21, 2026) - Mother Nature claimed the victory on opening night of the 34th annual Show-Me 100 Presented by Ace Doran Hauling and Rigging at Lucas Oil Speedway. Rain began falling as the second B feature concluded and didn't relent for several hours. Thursday's 45-lap main event, in honor of the late Allen "Cowboy" Chancellor, a long-time owner and promoter of the MLRA, will conclude Friday night's regularly scheduled program. The revised schedule for the Tribute to Don and Billie Gibson, founders of the Show-Me 100 at West Plains Motor Speedway, will find hot laps starting at 6 p.m., a half-hour earlier than originally scheduled. Qualifying and heats follow prior to B-Mains and the feature. The Hickamo Super Stocks also will be in action with the Cowboy Classic feature wrapping the action. A total of 51 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series drivers checked into the pits. The three-night event, which culminates with Saturday's $75,000-to-win, 100-lap main event, pays $10,000 to win the preliminary Late Model features. Drivers will accumulate points on their finishes both nights to help set the lineup for Saturday night's finale. Brandon Overton of Evans, Ga., was the Allstar Performance fast qualifier, with a time at 15.306 seconds out of Group A. Jonathan Davenport paced Group B at 15.347 seconds. Overton also won his heat race to grab the pole to start the feature with Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Ill., starting alongside as Heat 3 winner.
