The Late Model Stock Class will be fielded by 30 drivers in a 125-

BY: TSN's Brogan Whitworth On Monday, August 3rd, the Facebook Page of the Leapfrog Tri-State Triple Crown Challenge released a statement from Jody Chandler announcing the suspension of the series for the 2026 season. Jody Chandler wrote, “As of August 3" 2026, Leapfrog Lawncare and Landscaping felt that this program never garnered the support it needed with only 8 competitors for the first event (Anderson) and 9 competitors for the second event (Newport). After two events,

BROWNSBURG, Ind. – Kaden Honeycutt wants everyone to recognize the excellence of Cook Racing Technologies. The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series regular has frequently raced for team owner Bruce Cook on the ARCA platform since 2023. Each time he takes the wheel of Cook’s No. 17, he becomes a strong contender for victory. This narrative held true Friday evening at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park as Honeycutt fended off a persistent Carson Brown amid lapped traffic to secure hi

Normally, the driver who wins an ASA STARS National Tour event starts in the top 10. That was not the case as the front two drivers in the Capital 200 presented by Appalachian Sucker Punch. Both came from the seventh row on the starting grid at Madison International Speedway to post a one-two finish. When the flag flew at the end of 200 laps, it was Kyle Steckly (Milverton, ON) coming from 14th to score his second-career win in the ASA STARS National Tour. Steckly won the Red

Thomas Annunziata had every reason to feel confident before Friday’s ARCA Menards Series race at Lime Rock Park. Annunziata is not only a talented road racer, but he also came into the Lime Rock Park ARCA 100 as the defending champion. He effectively used his skill and confidence to dominate Friday’s 68-lap race, securing his first victory of the season and the second win of his ARCA Menards Series career. “I grew up doing this kind of stuff, right? A lot of these guys didn’t

Is it appropriate to use the phrases “pure domination” and “fending off challengers” to describe the winner of a race? In the context of the SMART Modified Tour powered by Pace-O-Matic event on July 4th at Caraway Speedway, the answer is unequivocally yes. Carson Loftin secured the Pace-O-Matic Pole award during qualifying, drew the number-1 position, and led every lap to secure victory in the Revolutionary 99 held in Sophia, NC. The most challenging aspect for Loftin was def

Tyler Courtney came up just one spot shy of cashing in on the $100,000 High Bank Bounty for a $400,000 payday. The Clauson Marshall/NOS Energy Drink No. 7BC settled for a still stout $50,000 runner-up to punctuate the week on a high note after a slow start. “From Wednesday to now, we made a lot of changes to the car and just worked our tails off to be in the position we were tonight,” Courtney said. “I feel like were pretty good until late. I felt like I got a pretty good res

The box score says Bobby Pierce started first and finished first, but that doesn’t even begin to tell the full story. It had been seven years since the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision last visited Ogilvie Raceway, and expectations were high at the track that’s known to give drivers plenty of room to race. When the lineup was published that had Pierce and Jonathan Davenport beside each other on the front row, the fans knew they were in for a treat. W

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.

Prior to Saturday’s Mini’s Mission Burn Rubber to Help Another 125, no driver had claimed a second victory in the zMAX CARS Late Model Stock Car Tour at Dominion Raceway over nine previous events. Appropriately, it was Mini Tyrrell who broke this pattern. Saturday marked the fourth consecutive year that Tyrrell’s charity, Mini’s Mission, sponsored the Dominion CARS Tour event. This 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization was founded by Tyrrell to raise awareness about childhood canc

Few drivers can claim to have earned a six-figure paycheck in a single night at a dirt track, but Nick Hoffman has recently joined this select group. Just one evening earlier, Tyler Erb became part of this elite club after local philanthropists Dan and Brenda Niss contributed a donation that elevated Friday’s winner's prize to an impressive $100,000. However, their generosity did not end there. The Blaster 57 Special finale on Saturday for the World of Outlaws Late Model Seri

BROOKLYN, Mich. – Joe Gibbs Racing ended Pinnacle Racing Group’s winning streak at Michigan International Speedway on Friday afternoon, with Gio Ruggiero driving their No. 18 Toyota to victory in the Henry Ford Health 200.

In front of a live television audience on FS1, Kyle Larson displayed arguably the most dominant performance in Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing history Wednesday night at Menomonie, Wisconsin's Red Cedar Speedway. Officially, the Elk Grove, California native will go into the record books with the fourth-largest margin of victory, coming in at 3.411 seconds. However, before a Lap 24 caution set up a six-lap sprint to the finish, Larson's lead over the field stood out a s

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 Cr

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.

(HICKORY, NORTH CAROLINA) – Appropriately, the Tar Heel 250 presented by Appalachian Sucker Punch concluded with a showdown between two North Carolina drivers at Hickory Motor Speedway. Ultimately, Caden Kvapil of Mooresville, NC, secured his first victory following an intense late-race contest with Carson Brown. Carson Brown from New London, NC, was on the verge of becoming the first driver in ASA STARS National Tour history to achieve three consecutive wins. Brown had alrea

Add his name to the record books. Kasey Kahne is forever a World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series winner. The kid from Enumclaw, WA made his debut with The Greatest Show on Dirt on Aug. 22, 1997 at Grays Harbor Raceway in his home state. After that, he made a successful journey into NASCAR that included wins in the Coca-Cola 600 and Brickyard 400. Kahne ventured into Sprint Car team ownership that brought six World of Outlaws titles with Brad Sweet (five) and Dar

Brandon Sheppard from New Berlin, Illinois, achieved victory on Saturday night at Fairbury Speedway, securing the FALS Spring Shootout presented by Titan Industries. The event, part of the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing, awarded $30,000 to the winner.
