RIGGINS RALLIES TO USCS CAROLINA SPEEDWAY WIN

FAYETTEVILLE, GA Eric Riggins Jr. of Charlotte, NC won the United Sprint Car Series Presented by K&N Filters 25-lap Feature Race Friday night at Carolina Speedway. Riggins came from the third starting spot to take the lead from Lance Moss of Cherryville, NC on lap 12 and led the rest of the way in the caution-free race.

Moss finished second, as Riggins and Moss set such a fast pace, they were the only two cars on the lead lap. Johnny Bridges of Cherryville, NC took the third spot. A pair of National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductees finished fourth and fifth.

The 15-time and defending USCS National Champion Terry Gray of Bartlett, TN was fourth, and 2022 USCS National Champion Danny Smith of Chillicothe, OH came home in fifth. Luke Hill of Odessa, FL took the sixth spot, and seventh went to Jake McLain of Hembry Bridge, NC.

Robert Tyler of Mount Pleasant, NC was eighth and Kyle Connery of Vero Beach, FL started 18th and finished ninth to earn the Wilwood Brakes Hard Charger of the Race Award. Brianna Lawson of Jackson Springs, NC rounded out the top ten.

In preliminary action, Moss earned the pole position for the 25-lap Feature Race by winning the six-lap Hoosier Racing Tire Speed Dash. The three eight-lap Heat Races were won by Moss in the Engler Machine & Tool First Heat, Hill in the Butlerbuilt Racing Products Second Heat, and Gray in the Racing Electronics Third Heat.

Moss took the lead at the start of the race followed by Riggins, Hill, Bridges and Gray. Bridges got by Hill for the third spot on lap eight, and Gray passed Hill for fourth on lap ten. Smith moved into the top five by passing Hill for fifth on lap 13 at the halfway point of the race. Smith went a lap down on lap 15, and Riggins put Gray a lap down on lap 19.

Bridges in third was lapped on the 22nd circuit. By the last lap of the race, Riggins sealed the deal, as he put six lapped cars between himself and Moss in the second spot. The victory was the fourth of the 2024 USCS season for Riggins, and his second USCS win of the season at Carolina Speedway.

AMERSON TAKES THIRD USCS WIN OF THE SEASON AT SENOIA RACEWAY

SENOIA, GA August 10, 2024 - Kyle Amerson of Montgomery, AL drove to his third United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters win of the 2024 season on Saturday night at Senoia Raceway. The Racing Doctor took the lead at the start of the 30-lap Feature Race from his outside front row starting spot and went wire-to-wire to the checkered flag.

Tyler Blankenship of Bakersfield, CA was the apparent second-place finisher, however, the impressive rookie driver racing in only his second winged sprint car race ever, failed to present his car in the designated area for post-race technical inspection and was disqualified and credited with the 14th-place finishing position,

The defending 15-time USCS National Champion National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Terry Gray of Bartlett, TN took the second spot and Bobby Breen of Fort Worth, TX was third. Bryce Comer of Apollo Beach, FL drove to a fourth-place finish, and fourth generation driver P.J. Reutimann of Zephyrhills, FL completed the top five.

Tyler Porter of Pinellas Park, FL was sixth and Jeff Willingham of Ripley, MS finished seventh. Eighth went to Joe Larkin of Suwanee, GA and Clint Weiss of Jesup, GA took the ninth spot. Bob Auld of Largo, FL rounded out the top ten.

In preliminary action, Blankenship won the six-lap Hoosier Racing Tire Speed Dash to earn the Pole Position for the 30-lap Feature Race. The two eight-lap Heat Races were won by Amerson in the Engler Machine & Tool First Heat Race, and Comer in the Butlerbuilt Racing Products Second Heat Race.

Amerson led Blankenship, Brandon Grubaugh of Ocala, FL, Porter, and Gray at the start of the race. By the fifth circuit, Amerson held a 1.323 second lead over Blankenship, but that was erased by the first of four caution flags. Amerson quickly opened up a 1.5 second lead over Blankenship on the restart.

The second yellow light came on lap 13 when Grubaugh dropped out of the race from the third spot. It was Amerson, Blankenship, Porter, Gray and Comer in the top five for the restart. The only time Blankenship got close to Amerson was in lapped traffic on lap 19, but once the leader cleared the lapped cars, he opened up a one second lead by lap 21.

Blankenship wasnt ready to throw in the towel because with five laps to go, he closed up on Amerson again in lapped traffic. Blankenship closed to within .229 seconds on lap 28, but that was slowed by a caution flag. Another caution flag came out on lap 29 when Porter had an issue while running in the third spot.

Amerson pulled away from Blankenship on the restart for the two lap dash to the finish. Amersons margin of victory over Blankenship at the checkered flag was 1.386 seconds in a race that took 18 minutes and 55.371 seconds to complete.

Amerson trailed early race leader 2021 USCS National Champion and National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Danny Smith of Chillicothe, OH for the first half of the caution-free race. Once Smith entered lapped traffic, Amerson was able to make up the distance on two occasions, and passed Smith for the lead on lap 24.

Smith held on to finish second and third went to Jeff Oliver of Pendergrass, GA. The defending and 15-time USCS National Champion National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Terry Gray of Bartlett, TN started 11th and finished fourth to earn the Wilwood Brakes Hard Charger of the Race Award.

Smith was able to put a lapped car between himself and Amerson on lap 12 and the leader once again pulled away from Amerson.

Lap 21 once again saw Smith stuck behind lapped traffic. Amerson was quick to close the gap, and camped out on Smiths rear nerf bar. On lap 24, Amerson saw an opening on the inside, and dove next to Smith in turn two. Amerson used a lapped car to pin Smith behind, and he took the lead going down the backstretch. Amerson was gone by the time Smith cleared the lapped traffic.

Smith tried to chase Amerson down to challenge for the lead in the closing laps, but also had to hold off Oliver, who closed in the challenge Smith for second. Smith fell .852 seconds short at the checkered flag in a race that took just seven minutes and 47.989 seconds to complete the 27 tours around the 3/8-mile red clay oval.

BLUE RIDGE, GA July 12, 2024 - Dr. Kyle Amerson was in the house at Sugar Creek Raceway on Friday night with a win in the 25-lap Feature Race for the United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters. The scoresheet may have said Amerson led all 25 laps, but that was after trading sliders on restarts with Jeff Oliver of Pendergrass, GA.

Amerson pulled away on the last restart to score his third career USCS victory, and move into the top ten of the Southern Regional points. Oliver finished second and third went to National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee and the 2021 USCS National Champion Danny Smith of Chillicothe, OH.

Trey Meredith of Dade City, FL was fourth, and the defending and 15-time USCS National Champion National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Terry Gray started eighth and finished fifth to earn the Wilwood Brakes Hard Charger of the Race Award.

Prestin Dalton of Covington, TN finished sixth, and Terry Witherspoon of Jacksonville, FL came home in the seventh spot. Tyler Porter of Pinellas Park, FL finished eighth, and Jeff Willingham of Ripley, MS took the ninth spot. Joe Larkin of Suwanee, GA rounded out the top ten.

In preliminary action, Amerson won the six-lap Hoosier Racing Tire Speed Dash to earn the Pole Position for the 25-lap Feature Race. The two eight-lap Heat Races were won by Meredith in the Engler Machine & Tool First Heat Race, and Smith in the Butlerbuilt Racing Products Second Heat Race.

Amerson took the lead from the pole position while Oliver slid Meredith in turn two to take the second spot. Meredith jumped the cushion in turn two which opened the door for Smith and Dalton to move up to third and fourth respectively on the opening lap. The first of four caution flags came out on lap four when Porter spun in turn four.

On the restart, Oliver threw a slide job pass on Amerson by diving low in turn one and sliding up in front of the leader in turn two. Amerson then performed the crossover down the backstretch by going to the inside and sliding up in front of Oliver in turn three. Merdith got by Dalton to take over the fourth spot on lap nine.

By lap 15 Meredith had caught Smith to challenge for the third spot, and made the pass for the position on lap 16. The red flag was displayed on lap 17 when fourth generation driver P.J. Reutimann of Zephyrhills, FL flipped in turn two. He climbed out of the car uninjured. Amerson pulled away from Oliver on the restart by covering the bottom of the race track.

Smith threw a slider on Meredith in turn four to reclaim the third spot on lap 17. By lap 20, Amerson had pulled out to a 1.948 second advantage over Oliver. Larkin brought out the third caution flag of the race on lap 21 when he spun in turn four. It was another sliderfest between Amerson, Oliver, Smith, and Meredith on the restart, but it was all for naught.

Dalton spun out of the fifth spot in turn four on the restart to bring out the caution flag for the final time. Amerson was able to pull away from Oliver in the five lap dash to the finish and take a 2.377 margin of victory under the checkered flag in a race that took 26 minutes and 25.578 seconds to complete.

Stenhouse began his Sprint Car career 20 years ago with USCS before moving up to NASCAR.

Stenhouse worked the outside groove to chase down early race leader Hayden Martin, also of Olive Branch, MS, and challenge for the lead in the last ten laps of the race. Stenhouse threw a slider in turn one on lap 20, and bumped wheels with Martin as they raced close coming off the second turn. Stenhouse was able to complete the pass down the backstretch.

Martin held on to finish second and third went to National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Sammy Swindell of Germantown, TN. Dale Howard of Byhalia, MS was fourth and another National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee, 15-time USCS National Champion Terry Gray of Bartlett, TN came back from a lap seven spin to take the fifth spot.

Jeff Willingham of Ripley, MS started 15th and rounded out the top ten to earn the Wilwood Brakes Hard Charger of the Race.

In preliminary action, Stenhouse won the Engler Machine and Tool first eight-lap Heat Race, and the Butlerbuilt Racing Products second eight-lap Heat Race was won by Martin. The Hoosier Racing Tire Speed Dash was cancelled due to weather that caused an hour rain delay.

Martin led the field into turn one on the initial start of the race, but the first of two caution flags came out on lap one when Brianna Lawson of Southern Pines, NC spun in turn three and collected Setser. That necessitated a complete restart that once again saw Martin grabbed the lead from the pole position followed by Howard, Stenhouse, Gray, and Swindell.

Stenhouse passed Howard for the second spot on lap four, while Gray moved up to challenge Howard for third on lap six. Gray looked to the inside of Howard in turn four on lap seven, but spun to the infield to bring out the caution flag. Martin led Stenhouse, Howard, Swindell and Moss down for the restart.

Swindel passed his teammate Howard for the third position on lap ten, and Stenhouse was gaining on Martin, as the leader caught lapped traffic on lap 12. Stenhouse was camped out on Martins rear nerf bar by lap 15, and found some clear race track to throw a slider to the inside of Martin going into turn one on lap 20.

The two leaders raced side-by-side, as Stenhouse slid up the banking in turn two. The lead duo made slight contact coming off the second turn, and Stenhouse took the lead down the backstretch. On lap 25, Stenhouse took a 1.892 second margin of victory over Martin under the checkered flag, in a race that took 11 minutes and 36.843 seconds to complete.

The United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters will return to Talladega Short Track on Saturday night for night two of the Alabama Gang Classic. For more information visit the USCS website at uscsracing.com and the series Facebook page, or call the series office at 770-865-6097.

SMITH POUNCES FOR LATE RACE PASS TO WIN SOUTHERN RACEWAY USCS RUN

MILTON, FL February 24, 2024 - Mark Smith of Sunbury, PA rode in the catbirds seat for 27 laps, and pounced in lapped traffic with three laps to go to take the lead. Smith went on to take his tenth United Sprint Car Series Presented by K&N Filters win at Southern Raceway since 2019 on Saturday night in Round 9 of the Winter Heat Series.

Terry McCarl of Altoona, IA led the first 27 laps of the race and was looking for his second straight win at Southern Raceway after posting the USCS win on Friday night, but the second-generation National Sprint Car Hall of Fame driver had to settle for the second spot. Mark Covington of Glenpool, OK finished third, and Mark Ruel Jr. of Jacksonville, FL was fourth.

Corbin Gurley of Hebron, IN drove to a fifth-place finish and Lance Moss of Cherryville, NC started 12th and finished sixth to earn the Wilwood Brakes Hard Charger of the Race Award. Seventh went to the 2023 National Sprint Car Hall of Fame 360 Sprint Car Driver of the Year Jason Martin of Liberal, KS, and Bradley Fezard of Bonnerdale, AR finished eighth.

Van Gurley Jr. of Valparaiso, IN was ninth, and the defending 15-time USCS National Champion and National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Terry Gray of Bartlett, TN rounded out the top ten.

In preliminary action, McCarl won the six-lap Hoosier Racing Tire Speed Dash to earn the Pole Position for the Main Event. The pair of eight-lap Heat Races were won by Austyn Gossel in the Engler Machine & Tool First Heat, and Smith in the Butlerbuilt Racing Products Second Heat.

McCarl took the lead from the pole position at the start of the race, followed by Smith, Brett Wright of East Chatham, NY, Gossel, and Ruel. Covington charged up from the eighth starting spot to pass Ruel for fifth on lap two, and Gossel took over the third spot from Wright on lap three.

While McCarl began to pull away from Smith at the front of the field, Covington passed Gossel for third on lap nine, and Ruel got around Gossel for fourth on lap ten, Gossels issues got worse on lap 11 when he spun in turn one while running fifth to bring out the first of three caution flags.

That moved Gurley back up into the top five, but that was short-lived for the moment, as Wright took over the fifth spot on the restart. By the halfway point of the race on lap 15, McCarl held a 1.308 second lead over Smith. The second caution flag came out on lap 19 when Todd Bliss of Baton Rouge, LA, cut down a left-rear tire in turn one.

During the caution period, Wright stalled out of the fifth spot on the backstretch as the field was getting set for the restart. Wright was able to restart, and he stalled once again on lap 21 to bring out the third and final caution flag of the race.

When the field went back to green flag action, McCarl and Smith pulled away from Covington in third, while Gurley passed Ruel for the fourth spot. With five laps to go, McCarl held a .803 second lead over Smith, but lapped traffic loomed ahead. As the leader entered turn one on lap 28, McCarl drifted to the outside of a lapped car and Smith pounced to the inside.

Smith came off the bottom of turn two with the lead, put another lapped car between himself and McCarl for good measure, and held the lead to the checkered flag with a .863 second margin of victory over McCarl.

I tried to stay close enough to Terry until we got into lapped traffic before I could make a move, Smith said. Its easier to make a move when youre running second because Terry had to slow down for the lapped car and decide which way he wanted to go, and he had no idea how close I was. When he went high, I committed to the bottom and made the pass.

The next two events for the United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters will be at Hattiesburg Speedway in Hattiesburg, MS on Friday night, March 1, and Saturday night, March 2.

TIMMS TAKES NIGHT TWO $3000 AT USCS HENDRY COUNTY MOTORSPORTS PARK STOP

CLEWISTON, FL SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3RD 2024 - Ryan Timms of Oklahoma City, OK won the 30-lap Main Event on Saturday night in Night 2 of the United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters Winter Heat event at Hendry County Motorsports Park. It was Timms second win in the last three USCS Winter Heat races.

Timms came from the second starting spot to take the lead from polesitter Chris Martin of Ankeny, IA on lap seven, and never looked back to take the win. Mark Smith of Sunbury, PA finished second and Mark Ruel Jr. of Jacksonville, FL took the third spot. Danny Sams Jr. of Northport, FL was fourth and Lance Moss of Cherryville, NC came home in the fifth position.

Sterling Cling of Tempe, AZ finished sixth, and seventh went to Wayne Johnson of Oklahoma City, OK. Corbin Gurley of Hebron, IN was eighth and Brendan Mullen of Grand Forks, ND took the ninth spot. Christopher Thram of Sanborn, MN started 21st and finished tenth to take the Wilwood Hard Charger of the Race Award.

In preliminary action, Martin won the six-lap Hoosier Racing Tire Speed Dash to earn the K& N Filters Pole Award (position) for the A-Main Event. The three eight-lap Heat Races were won by Ruel in the Engler Machine and Tool First Heat, Smith in the Butlerbuilt Racing Products Second Heat, and Moss in the Huggins Cams Third Heat.

Martin took the lead when the green flag came out to start the Main Event followed by Timms, Smith, Moss and Davie Franek of Wantage, NJ. Lap two saw Franek pass Moss for the fourth spot, and Franek moved up to third on lap four getting by Smith. Timms rallied around Martin to take the lead on lap seven, but the field stayed bunched up with a caution flag on lap nine.

Timms led Martin, Franek, Smith and Moss down for the restart, and Franek got by Martin to take over the second spot. At the halfway point, Timms held a .755 second lead over the Friday night winner Franek, who had Martin battling him for second. Smith held the fourth spot and Ruel got by Moss for the fifth position.

The top five positions in the race changed dramatically on lap 21 when the lapped car driven by Gunnar Setser of Columbus, IN spun and collected Franek and Martin, putting all three cars out of the race. With Franek and Martin done for the night, that moved Smith, Ruel, Sams, and Moss up to second through fifth respectively behind the leader Timms.

The last five laps of the race saw Timms with clear sailing, as he pulled away from the field to take a 2.961 second margin of victory over Smith under the checkered flag.

CLEWISTON, FL February 2, 2024 - Davie Franek of Wantage, NJ took a wire-to-wire win in the 25-lap United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters Feature Race Friday night at Hendry County Motorsports Park. The event was Round #4 of the 2024 USCS Winter Heat Series and the first of two nights at the South Florida track.

Mark Smith of Sunbury, PA worked his way up from the fourth starting spot early in the race to take the second spot, and Ryan Timms of Oklahoma City, OK rallied from the 12th starting hole to finish third. Danny Sams III of Northport, FL was fourth and fifth went to Wayne Johnson of Oklahoma City, OK.

The three eight-lap Heat Race winners were Smith in the Engler Machine & Tool First Heat, Franek in the Butlerbuilt Race Products Second Heat, and Moss in the Schoenfeld Headers Third Heat.

Johnson took the lead at the start of the race followed by Franek, Styres, Moss and Smith, but the caution flag came out before the lap could be completed. That necessitated a complete restart, and this time it was Franek taking the lead from the outside of the front row followed by Johnson, Styres, Smith and Moss.

Smith got by Styres for the third spot on lap two, and he moved up to second on lap three getting by Johnson. Franek held a 1.5 second lead over Smith on lap five, and Sams moved into the top five, getting around Moss. Smith closed to within a half a second on Franek on lap seven, and Styres passed Johnson for third on lap eight.

Sams made a big move on lap nine, getting around Johnson and Styres to move up to the third spot. The caution flag came out on lap ten, and Franek gave up a 1.3 second lead over Smith. Franek led Smith, Sams, Styres, and Johnson down for the restart. Johnson passed Styres for fourth. Franek built up a one second lead over Smith, but that was gone with a lap 14 caution flag,

Timms got busy when the field went back to green flag action, as he moved by Styres for fifth on the restart, and then passed Johnson for fourth on lap 15. Franek opened up a 2.6 second lead on Smith by lap 18, and Timms passed Sams for the third spot on lap 19.

The last five laps of the race saw Timms move up to challenge Smith for the second spot, as Franek pulled away. At the checkered flag, it was Franek with a 3.870 second margin of victory over Smith, who nipped Timms for second by .184 seconds.

TIMMS TALLIES TEN GRAND IN VOLUSIA USCS SOUTHERN SPRINT CAR SHOOTOUT FINALE

January 27, 2024 - DeLEON SPRINGS, FL Ryan Timms of Oklahoma City, OK chose the low road to race to a $10,000 payday on Saturday night in the 30-lap finale of the 2nd Annual Germfree Southern Sprint Car Shootout for the United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters on Saturday night at Volusia Speedway Park driving the Citgard/Mystic Lubricants Special.

The 17-year-old driver started fifth and took the lead from Justin Peck of Monrovia, IN with an inside move coming off the fourth turn on lap 19. Timms then held his inside line after a late-race caution flag necessitated a green, white, checkered finish to hold off Peck and seal the deal.

Thursday night's winner Sam Hafertepe Jr. of Sunnyvale, TX finished third, and Friday nights winner Austin McCarl of Altoona, IA came back from an early race spin to take the fourth spot. Danny Dietrich of Gettysburg, PA started 14th and rallied to finish fifth to earn the $100 Hard Charger Award plus the Wilwood Disc Brakes Hard Charger contingency.

I found the bottom groove early in turns one and two and got by Hafertepe for second, then it worked in three and four to get by Peck to take the lead, Timms said. I was pretty frustrated when that late caution flag came out, but I remembered to stay on the bottom after the restart. Im just super stoked to get this win.

Sixth through tenth respectively went to Cameron Martin of Ankeny, IA, Davie Franek of Wantage, NJ, Danny Martin Jr. of Sarasota, FL, Tyler Clem of St. Petersburg, FL, and Eric Riggins Jr. of Charlotte, NC.

In preliminary action, Danny Sams III of Northport, FL took the $100 Fast Qualifier Award among the 38 entrants with a lap around the ½-mile clay oval in 14.296 seconds. The four eight-lap Heat Races were won by McCarl, Peck, Cameron Martin, and Hafertepe. The two 12-lap Last Chance Showdown Races were won by Lian Martin of Binbrook, ON and Ryan Harrison of Rothwell, NTR.

McCarl took the lead at the start of the race followed by Peck, Hafertepe, Ryan Turner of Dunnville, ON, and Timms. Peck and Hafertepe came from the fourth and eighth starting positions respectively on lap one to race into the top three. Peck was able to sail around the outside of McCarl on lap two to take the lead coming off turn four. Lap three saw Timms pass Turner for fourth.

The first of three caution flags came out on lap four when McCarl spun in turn three while running in the second spot. That sent the third-generation driver to the tail of 26-car field for the restart.

Peck brought the field back to green, and Timms worked the inside to challenge Hafertepe for second, but the high riding Hafertepe was able to hold the position. Hafertepe chased down Peck on lap ten in lapped traffic, and charged under Peck to take the lead coming off the fourth turn. The pass was negated, however, as the caution flag came out for the stalled car of Brandon Grubaugh of Ocala, FL.

On the restart, Timms drove off the inside of turn two to pass Hafertepe for the second spot. At the hallway point on lap 15, Peck held a .694 second lead over Timms, with Hafertepe, Cameron Martin, and Franek following in the top five. McCarl had worked his way back up to the eighth spot.

Timms chipped away at Pecks lead in the next three laps, and caught the leader in heavy lapped traffic on lap 19. Timms stayed on the bottom of the track coming off turn four to take the lead. By lap 25, Timms enjoyed a 2.668 second lead on Peck, Hafertepe, Cameron Martin, and McCarl, who was now back in the top five. McCarl was around Cameron Martin for fourth on lap 28.

On the last lap, Hafertepe got by Peck for second, and just when Timms looked like he would cruise home to victory, Ryan Roberts of Aurora, NE stalled to bring out the caution flag. A single-file restart for a green, white, checkered finish saw Timms bring the field down for the green followed by Peck, Hafertepe, McCarl, and Cameron Martin.

Timms held on to the low road to take the $10,000 victory with a .266 second margin of victory at the checkered flag over Peck, Hafertepe, McCarl, and Dietrich, who climbed into the top five on the final lap.

The next two events for the United Sprint Car Series Presented By K&N Filters will be on Friday night, February 2 and Saturday night, February 3 at Hendry County Motorsports Park in Clewiston, FL for Rounds 4 and 5 of the USCS Winter Heat.

A number of Florida based drivers are also expected, including two-time USCS Florida State Championship race winner Danny Martin, Jr. from Sarasota, Florida who recently dominated the field in the 2023 Battle at Barbourville event at Volusia Speedway Park on the first weekend of December. As a teenager, Martin finished in the runner-up spot in the USCS Outlaw Thunder Tour National standings.

Harrison will be joined by a strong contingent of Canadian drivers as well, with at least seven pre-entered for the first sprint car race of the season in the United States.

Atlanta, GA - October 5, 2023 - Three-time World of Outlaws Champion, Five-time Chili Bowl Midget Nationals Champion and National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Inductee Sammy Swindell from Germantown, Tennessee has entered the 15th Annual USCS Flip Flop 50 sprint car speed spectacular at Riverside International Speedway on Friday and Saturday. October 13th and 14th.

Swindell participated in the inaugural USCS Flip Flop 50, when his brother Jeff Swindell won the first half of the twin 25's. Sammy won the second half of the 25-lap contests with Jeff starting in 22nd position and racing all the way back to the runner-up spot.

He has been back several times since that inaugural event to compete in the USCS FlipFlop 50, but hasn't been able to reach the USCS Victory Lane again. He says "That's not the plan this time".

He will be driving a team car to two-time USCS Mid-South Thunder regional series Champion and three-time 2023 USCS winber Dale Howard's #47 sprint car. Sammy will be in the #47s team car for the weekend's action.

He warmed up for balance of the upcoming 2023 events he has on his schedule last Saturday night (9/30) at Riverside by winning his heat race, then leading the majority of the 25-lap Riverside 360 Fall Nationals main event before finishing third after getting caught up in lapped traffic in the closing laps.

Although his schedule has slowed down from those WOO touring days, he has raced seventeen times this year and has four wins to show for it in Winged 360 Sprint Cars. Those wins came at two Colorado track's and, two at Arizona's Vado Speedway just a couple of weeks ago.

Swindell is looking forward to getting back behind the wheel at one of the track's he competed at weekly as a young driver and seeing his fans. Those were in the days before he hit the road to track's all across the Nation and became one of sprint car racing's all-time greats.
