SARVER, PA (August 30, 2025) – Ricky Thornton Jr. led wire-to-wire, winning the 57th Annual Summit Racing Equipment Hillbilly Hundred presented by Arizona Sport Shirts on Saturday night at Lernerville Speedway. Thornton’s 13th Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win of the season was worth $30,000 and marked his first victory in dirt late model racing’s oldest, ongoing race that began in 1967.

 

Thornton faced a tough challenge from Jonathan Davenport after a lap 90 caution when the top two in the series championship points made contact in a side-by-side battle. Thornton was able to pull away from Davenport in the final nine laps to win by 1.397 seconds.

 

Max Blair, who started 13th, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third after passing Devin Moran right before the final caution of the race. Moran finished fourth. Brandon Overton earned the Hoker Trucking Hard Charger of the Race as he finished fifth after starting 21st.

 

In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the 55th time in his career, Thornton has now won three of the last four Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing events.

 

“I am glad that the first yellow came out. I really didn’t get a great start; I let JD get out in front of me. I felt like whoever got out front would be the one to beat, whether your car is better or not. We tried a bunch of different things today, and I felt we were a lot better. I still think we need to improve a lot once it finally cleans off, but overall, it was a really good night for us. You have to start the night off well with good qualifying, have a solid heat race, and a good start to the feature, said the Chandler, Arizona native who now resides in Indianola, Iowa.

 

“I felt like I was kind of sliding myself into three and four, then they took away the top line, making it so I couldn’t get out there where they could hail Mary around me. I got to traffic and felt almost better around the bottom, and I think you slow your pace down so much when you get to a lapped car, so I needed to stay down there. On that last restart, I felt like I got a decent restart; I saw JD under me and thought, alright, drive it in hard into one and slide myself, and I got a run off of two. By the time I heard him, it was already too late, and I was into him. Obviously, I know he was going to be mad; you definitely don’t want to run a competitor off the track like that.”

 

Davenport was seeking his third career Hillbilly Hundred victory. He took home $15,000 for a second-place finish and gave his viewpoint on the lap 91 restart.

 

“I got a pretty good restart, and I was planning to slide him when I got into one, but just like a few other times when I’d get a run on him, Thornton was going to come all the way to the bottom. So I was either going to crash us both or do something else, and I didn’t want to do that. I moved back to the top and got a really good run. I doubt he saw me, but if he heard me, you know, whatever, he says he didn’t. It is what it is; as he said, whoever gets out in front is going to be really hard to beat.”

 

Blair, who also finished third in the track’s signature event, the Firecracker 100, in June, worked his way methodically to a podium finish after starting on the inside of row number seven.

 

“I love this place when it gets slippery like that. I need to improve in the heat races so I can start a little higher than 13th. We were really strong at the end of the race, so congrats to Ricky — he's on a roll. It’s getting down to crunch time in this championship, and it’s cool to see him racking up all these wins. Hopefully, he can keep it up and go back-to-back.”

 

The winner’s Koehler Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Cornett Racing Engine and sponsored by Ultimate Towing and Recovery, Hoker Trucking, Knight’s Companies, Coltman Farms Racing, Elite Ready Mix, Capital Waste, Bilstein Shocks, Sunoco Race Fuels, EMD Wraps, and Certified Inspection Services.

SARVER, PA (August 29, 2025) – Garrett Alberson took the lead at the start of Friday night’s 40-lap, $10,000-to-win main event and never looked back.

 

He first held off Ricky Thornton Jr. for the first four laps, then Jonathan Davenport for several laps, and finally Devin Moran for the last 13 circuits to earn his first-ever win at Lernerville Speedway on the opening night of the 57th Annual Hillbilly 100 Presented by Summit Racing Equipment.

 

Alberson led all 40 laps to earn his fourth career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series presented by FloRacing victory. Moran moved from fifth to second on a lap 27 restart and finished just 0.852 seconds behind.

 

Hudson O’Neal moved from seventh to secure a spot on the Big River Steel Podium by claiming third place. Tim McCreadie finished fourth, followed by Ricky Thornton, Jr., who made a late race charge to reach fifth after dropping as low as eighth in the running order at the checkers, maintaining his series points lead heading into Saturday’s $30,000-to-win Hillbilly Hundred.

 

Alberson, who finished fourth in the track’s signature event, the Firecracker 100, went to Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the third time this season on Friday night.

 

“My guys did such a good job. Big thanks to Vinny (Guiliani); he came in with us and helped us get our program back together. I just tried to be a driver tonight. I tried not to overthink it and let my instincts take over. Man, the car worked really well; the track was intense. I kinda wanted to straighten the car out a little here and there, but every time I tried to ease up on it, there was somebody right beside us,” said the driver from Las Cruces, New Mexico native.

 

“I kind of took a lane over there, and when you do that, you kind of try to break a guy’s momentum. I hope I didn’t crowd anybody too much. I just had to change the momentum a little bit and then get back to what I was doing, being a little more disciplined with what I was doing in three and four so I wouldn’t lose my speed across the center. Man, this is awesome.”

 

Moran, who suddenly became a contender for the win after starting eighth, climbed to second following a lap 27 restart.

 

“For the Firecracker, we had some bad luck, and I felt like our results didn’t reflect our speed. Coming here, starting eighth and finishing second was awesome. Kudos to Garrett for running a great race. I thought I had a chance in one and two, and I stuck my nose out, but I probably shouldn't have. Once I did, he (Alberson) moved down for three or four laps, which messed up my momentum. They did a great job, and so did my team. We've been working really hard and had to fight through a lot of challenges this year. We've had a really great race car here the last couple of weeks,” said the Dresden, Ohio native.

 

O’Neal, who started alongside Moram in row four, finished in third place.

 

“Yeah, the car was really good. We struggled for the last couple of weeks, but we were able to test yesterday, and I think it really helped us. We've been working to improve our balance on these bigger race tracks because we struggled a little when we came here for the Firecracker. However, we opened up the notebook, and it turned out to be a really good night for us.”

JEREMY WONDERLING, BRANDON BURGOON, KYLE HARDY, TOM SNYDER JR & BRADY WONDERLING ALL ADD TO HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL WIN TOTALS

By Marcie Barlow


 

September 10, 2025 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Pulaski, PA)…Kyle Hardy captured the victory in the two previous Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series events, and he kept that streak alive as he tallied victory #3 when the Series visited Greg Gunter’s Winchester Speedway last Saturday.  Tom Snyder, Jr., Jeremy Wonderling, Brady Wonderling, Brandon Burgoon also tallied wins in Hovis RUSH Late Model City Chevrolet Weekly Series action, while John Mollick captured his ninth win of the season in Hovis RUSH Sprint Car Billy’s Garage Weekly Series action. The RUSH Sportsman Modifieds, Pro Mods & Stock Cars all had the weekend off.

 

Hovis RUSH Late Model City Chevrolet Weekly Series action took place at Freedom Motorsports Park for the first time of the 2025 season on Friday night in the running of the “Mike DuClon Memorial”. Jeremy Wonderling tallied his seventh overall win of the season and also took home the top prize of $2,058. The victory tied Wonderling with Jason Genco for the lead in the City Chevrolet National Weekly Series. Bryce Davis was second over Chad Homan, Genco, and Austin Allen.

 

Tom Snyder, Jr. captured his season’s fifth Dog Hollow Speedway win on Friday night in Hovis RUSH Late Model City Chevrolet Weekly Series action, Greg Beach made his season debut and was second. Noah Brunell was a season best third. Russ King Racing Futures Cup racer, Leo Iarrapino, was fourth. Mike Laughard, who is battling Snyder for the City Chevrolet Track Pack title, had issues and was unable to start the feature.

 

It took Kyle Hardy until mid-August to score his first RUSH Late Model victory but since then the Winchester, VA driver has been the hottest driver in the Series. Saturday evening the Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour was in action at Winchester Speedway.  Jeremy Wonderling and Hardy led the 25-car field to the green. Hardy and Wonderling quickly separated themselves from the field as they battled for the top spot while fifth place starter Greg Carrico moved into third. Seventh place starter Zach Carley and Mike Franklin entertained the fans as they fought for the fourth position. Cautions slowed the field on laps 14 and 17 but each time the racing resumed Hardy maintained his lead.

 

Light sprinkles began to fall after the lap 17 restart but that did not slow down Hardy as he had a 2.059 second lead when he caught lapped traffic on lap 27. Just two laps later contact between Carrico and Carley would result in Carley spinning and the caution waving. The event’s final caution waved on lap 33 when Isaiah Gouchenour spun in turn three. During the caution, the rain picked up and the checkered flag waved with 33 of the 40 laps completed. Hardy scored the victory for his third consecutive Tour Series win. Wonderling came home in the second spot with Carrico getting third. Jacob Whitt and Mike Franklin completed the top five.

 

Brandon Burgoon and Tom Klein paced the RUSH Late Model field to the green at Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Motor Speedway on Saturday for the track’s “Free Night”. Burgoon immediately took the lead until caution slowed the field on lap two. On the restart Klein briefly took the top spot but Burgoon wrestled the lead from him and never looked back. Burgoon dominated the remainder of the 20-lap event to score his fifth victory of the season at the Imperial, PA track. Clinton Hersh came from 11th to finish in the second spot with Klein claiming third. Kassidy Kamicker and Rob Coffaro rounded out the top five.

 

Sunday evening at Bradford Speedway it was Brady Wonderling who benefitted from Kurt Stebbin’s misfortune to capture the victory. The win was Wonderling’s first at the speedway in 2025 and his fourth overall in RUSH action. Ironically, Stebbins was piloting Jeremy Wonderling’s 3J as his own ride had suffered mechanical woes earlier in the weekend at Freedom Motorsports Park. Jake Wilber came home in the runner-up position followed by brothers John and Dusty Waters. Garrett Mott was fifth for the fourth straight race.  

 

Hovis RUSH Sprint Car competitors were also in action at Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Motor Speedway Saturday evening.  Zach Morrow and CJ McClintock led the field to the green.  Morrow quickly took command with third place starter John Mollick sliding into second. Mollick overtook Morrow on lap four and set a blistering pace for the remainder of the 15-lap event. At the checkered flag it was Mollick scoring his third win in four tries this season and Pittsburgh. Mollick’s ninth overall win of 2025 came by 1.099 seconds over Morrow, who has now finished runner-up at the last four events. Russ King Racing Futures Cup points leader Wyatt Long came home in third with Trent Marshall getting fourth. Lady racer Samantha Priest, another Futures Cup competitor, completed the top five.

 

RUSH Late Model action at Woodhull Raceway was cancelled due to rain.

 

This weekend’s schedule of Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Late Model Rick Hendrick City Chevrolet Weekly Series action includes Dog Hollow Speedway, Georgetown Speedway and Woodhull Raceway on Friday. Saturday evening action includes Muskingum County Speedway with a $1,000 to win event as well as Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Motor Speedway and Winchester Speedway. Stateline Speedway will be in action both Friday and Saturday; Friday evening will feature prelim action with the $2,500 main event scheduled for Saturday.

 

Hovis RUSH Sprint Car action is scheduled for Stateline Speedway Friday evening. The Billy’s Garage Weekly Series event will pay $800 to-win.

 

The lone Hovis RUSH Sportsman Modified event of the weekend will take place Saturday evening at Tri-City Raceway Park for $800 to-win.

 

Hovis RUSH Pro Mod competitors will be in action Friday at Stateline Speedway vying for $1,000 to win.

 

RUSH Stock Car teams will be in action Saturday evening at Tri-City Raceway Park in a $750 to win event and then make their first ever appearance at Bradford Speedway Sunday evening in a $500 to-win event.

 

The weather once again looks to be perfect for fans to enjoy an exciting evening of RUSH Racing Series presented by Born2Run Lubricants action before the season comes to an end.

KYLE HARDY CONTINUES HOT STREAK WITH HIS 3RD STRAIGHT HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL FLYNN’S TIRE/GUNTER’S HONEY TOUR VICTORY TAKING $5,000 AT HIS HOME TRACK WINCHESTER SPEEDWAY

By Mike Leone


 

September 6, 2025 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Winchester, VA)...After a rain-plagued 2024 season, the Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Series presented by Born2Run Lubricants has once again fought Mother Nature at the majority of the 2025 Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series events. After losing the spring of 2024 and 2025 events at Winchester Speedway, track owner Greg Gunter, who has co-sponsored the Tour the last two seasons, decided to roll the dice on Saturday despite forecasts of 70% or higher probability of rain. The storms missed the Speedway during the mid-afternoon and the majority of the night was completed despite light showers and drizzle setting in later in the evening. Despite the weather, 34 teams from throughout the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Mid-Ohio Valley turned out for race #14 of the 2025 season.

 

Just two weeks ago, Kyle Hardy finally won his first RUSH-sanctioned event of 2025 in a City Chevrolet Weekly Series race at his home track Winchester Speedway. Last weekend, Hardy swept the Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series events on the big half-mile at Tri-City Raceway Park and the quarter-mile bullring at Tyler County Speedway for more than $8,000 ending a winless drought of more than two years on the Tour. On Saturday night, Hardy continued his hot streak leading all 33 laps of the rain-shortened feature on the high-banked 3/8-mile fending off four-time Tour Champion and current points leader, Jeremy Wonderling, for the $5,000 payday.

 

“That was getting to be a little nervous with the moisture we had on the race track,” acknowledged the 32-year-old Winchester, VA resident from Landrum Performance Springs Victory Lane. “I’m glad they made a smart call there and kept us from tearing some cars up. The track was good tonight. We started off not good being 30th (fastest) in hot laps, but made some gains throughout the night. We had a decent run in the dash after starting fifth and getting to third. It would have been hard to win if Devin (Brannon) didn’t break a timing cover. Jeremy (Wonderling) has a good car and is always hard to beat on the Tour and races me super clean and the respect is mutual- just a lot of fun racing those guys. I see Greg (Carrico) made his way to third which is nothing to hang your head about with this competition. I’m just glad to get out of here without any damage. We run really well at Lernerville and Pittsburgh.  We have a good package running there the last couple years and are really excited to get back to those places.”

 

Following the Dave Poske’s Performance Parts “Feel the RUSH” 4-Wide Salute, Devin Brannon, who had won all four of his City Chevrolet Weekly Series starts at Winchester this year, had to exit the event due to mechanical issues, which moved Hardy to the outside front row alongside Wonderling. Hardy used the outside to overtake Wonderling for the lead on the opening lap with teammate Greg Carrico going fifth to third. Zack Carley started seventh and cracked the top five on lap two getting by Mike Franklin,

 

Hardy and Wonderling pulled away from the pack by lap four, while Carley and Franklin went at it for fourth. The two ran side-by-side lap after lap with Carley on the bottom and Franklin on the top. Franklin regained the position on lap 10. Back up front, Hardy had a lead of 1.671 seconds over Wonderling when he caught lapped traffic on lap 12. A pair of cautions slowed action with 14 and 17 laps completed.

 

Light sprinkles began to fall under caution, when green replaced yellow, Carley passed both Franklin and Carrico for third with ninth starting Jacob Whitt moving into fourth. Carley and Whitt battled over the next several laps with Whitt making the outside lane work to ascend to third on lap 21. Hardy caught lapped traffic again on lap 27 and this time had a lead of 2.059 seconds. On lap 29, contact between Carrico and Carley sent Carley spinning to bring out the caution. The event’s final caution was displayed when Isaiah Gouchenour spun in turn three with 33 laps completed. Under caution, the intensity of the rain picked up to the point where racers weren’t comfortable to continue and the race was checkered with 33 of the scheduled 40 laps completed.

 

Hardy’s 13th career Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series victory moved him into a tie with Bryce Davis for third place on the Tour’s all-time win list.  Hardy’s official margin of victory was 0.951 seconds on lap 33 aboard his AGX Auto Glass/KHR/HT Roofing/Cline Construction/Dehaven Trailer Sales/MB Collectibles/Mike Hurley Motorsports/Xceptional Wildlife/Red Rock Tale Brickhouse-sponsored #99. Hardy has now finished in the top four for five straight races as he tries to keep pace with Wonderling in the battle for the $20,000 championship.

 

Wonderling was second for the fourth time this season and earned $2,500 to maintain his points lead. It was Wonderling’s 9th podium finish and 11th top 5 in 14 races.  “I knew it was going to be really, really hard to beat Kyle (Hardy) down here let alone run with him so we’re happy to be able to do that,” acknowledged the 45-year-old Wellsville, NY driver. “I don’t feel like I had anything for him unless maybe on a restart, but we both race so hard into the corners. Even him starting third I knew it was going to be hard to keep him behind me then with what happened to (Devin) Brannon it put him alongside of me. He’s definitely really good at this place, but it’s not just here. Kyle races me with a ton of respect all the time and I feel like I do with him and we put a pretty good show on.”

 

Carrico beat out his prior best Tour finish of sixth from opening night at Stateline with a third and received $1,250. Carrico joined Hardy and Wonderling by receiving a three-pack of premium Heritage Wine Cellars product for finishing on the podium. Whitt was fourth for his career best Tour finish and received $1,000. Franklin drove Greg Gunter’s #74 to a fifth-place finish in his first Tour start since the April 15, 2023 event at Winchester. 

 

Tyler Hoy was sixth over Branson Woodward. 3C Graphix Rookie-of-the-Year points leader, Demetrios Drellos, went 12th to 7th in his first ever Winchester start. Travis Campbell advanced from 18th to 9th. Tour regular, Ben Easler, went 15th to 10th in his first Winchester visit. For the second straight race, Jason Knowles earned the $50 Precise Racing Products “Pedal Down” Hard Charger gift card. Knowles took a provisional and went 25th to 13th. Steven Powell finished 15th and received a spoiler kit from Ontime Body & Graphic. 

 

Richard Hawkins was credited with the $200 victory in the D&V Jewelers Non-Qualifier. The 45-year-old Front Royal, VA driver of the #17H became the amazing 86th different winner in 108 races run all-time! Hawkins also received a $50 Holley Performance gift card for being the first feature non-qualifier. Marty Pownall was credited with second over Wesley Tippett, Brayden Armel, and Scott Sweeney, Jr.

 

Whitt earned his first career FK Rod Ends “Shock the Clock” fast time award. Whitt set fast time overall against the 34-car field in qualifying with a lap of 16.723 and became the 12th different driver in 15 shows this year to do so. Branson Woodward, Brannon, Hardy, and Carley won the $25 FK Rod Ends heat races. Billy Beachler and Zach Gunn won the twin last chance B mains. 

 

Landrum Performance Springs, which will award the $5,000 Loyalty Bonus to an eligible Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series regular at the season ending event, distributed BOGO certificates on Saturday night, which were captured by Easler, Davin Kaiser, Carrico, Knowles, and Gochenour.

 

Wonderling won his Series best fourth Sunoco Dash of the season and received a $100 Sunoco fuel card. Also winning $100 Sunoco fuel cards in the random drawings were Tour drivers Charlier and Ryan Hare. Winning the $50 fuel cards part of the “Fill’er Up with Sunoco Buck” program presented by Bazell Race Fuels were Kris Hutton, Kolbe Kimbrew, Brian Coe, Jr., and Marty Pownall.


 

The next events for Flynn’s Tire/Gunter's Honey Touring Series will be the “Bill Hendren Memorial” events at Pittsburgh PA Motor Speedway on October 3-4. Friday’s event will pay $4,000 to-win with $10,000 on the line on Saturday night. The July 13 rained out feature from Bradford Speedway in scheduled for September 28.

By Marcie Barlow


 

September 6, 2025 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Pulaski, PA)...The Labor Day weekend had lots of exciting Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH racing action throughout the region. Kyle Hardy hadn’t visited victory lane in RUSH Dirt Late Model action this year until two weeks ago, but he captured both Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Series this past weekend. Christian Schneider tallied two wins in the Twin 20-lap events held at Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Motor Speedway.  Blaze Myers also swept the action in Hovis Auto & Truck Supply Born2Run Lubricants Billy’s Garage RUSH Sprint Car scoring two wins at Tri-City Raceway Park. William Baker, Jr. captured the biggest payday of his career as withstood the persistent challenges of Camron Kramer in RUSH Stock Car action at Tri-City Raceway Park while Chas Wolbert (RUSH Sportsman Modified) and Al Brewer (RUSH Pro-Mods) added to their win totals.

 

Joey Warren scored his first Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Late Model victory in nearly three years at Georgetown Speedway’s Camp Barnes City Chevrolet Weekly Series special last Tuesday.  Warren led the first lap before Trevor Collins took command. Warren then regained the lead on lap 12 and went on to lead the remainder of the 20-lap event for the $1,727 payday. Nick Davis finished second with Steve Davis third. Matt Hill and Greg Carico completed the top five.

 

Two RUSH Late Model events were on the schedule at Dog Hollow Speedway.  The first was the makeup from July 25 and Devin Kaiser scored the win over Tom Snyder. Mike Laughard, Joe Zulisky, and Leo Iarrapino completed the top five.  Kaiser also claimed the win in the regularly scheduled event to bring his RUSH Late Model victory total to 11. Snyder once again claimed the second spot with Mike Duritsky finishing third. Iarrapino and Avery McMillen rounded out the top five.

 

Breyton Santee led the first ten circuits in RUSH Late Model action at Raceway 7 on Friday before a mechanical problem caused him to slow and bring out the caution. Billy Henry inherited the lead and went on to lead the final ten circuits of the event to score the win. The victory, which was Henry’s fifth of the season at the track, also secured the 2025 track and City Chevrolet Track Pack championship for him. Bud Watson got second with Logan Stockdale finishing third.  Santee came from the rear to finish in fourth with Will Pinckney rounding out the top five.

 

Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Series competitors were in action at Tri-City Raceway Park on Friday.  Daryl Charlier, who ended a three-year winless drought when the Series visited in May, led the first 12 laps before Kyle Hardy made the winning pass for the lead as the two battled in lapped traffic. Hardy then fended off the late race challenges of Christian Schneider to score his first Touring Series win in more than two years and four months by a mere 0.585 seconds. Hardy pocketed $4,000 for the win and became the ninth different winner in the 12 Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour events held this season. Jeremy Wonderling came home in third with Ryan Hare getting his career best Tour finish in fourth. Charlier completed the top five.

 

John Waters and Jacob Wilber led the field to green Saturday at Woodhull Raceway. Waters took command and quickly separated himself from the rest of the field. A lap 18 caution gave Steve LeBarron an opportunity to challenge Waters for the top spot, but he was unable to do so. Waters led the final two las to score his second victory of the season over LeBarron. Brett Marlatt, McKean County Speedway Promoter Kurt Stebbins, and Wilber completed the top five.

 

It was Season Championship Night at The Dirt Track at Genesee on Saturday. Jimmy Johnson and Paul Grigsby led the field to green with Johnson taking the lead. Johnson soon found himself being challenged for the lead by fifth place starter Jon Rivers. Rivers took control on lap five and weathered several cautions to score his first victory in more than a year. Johnson held on for the runner-up position with Grigsby claiming third. Bill Taylor and Matt Tracey rounded out the top five.

 

Twin 20 lap events were on the card at Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Motor Speedway on Saturday. Fast timer Zach Gunn and Christian Schneider led the first main event to the green.  Schneider took command with Gunn in second and Tommy Schirnhofer third. Schneider opened up a full straightaway lead by lap eight and went on to score the victory in the non-stop event. Mike Reft came home in second with Gunn claiming third. Schirnhofer and Jake Gunn rounded out the top five.

 

In victory lane Schneider spun the wheel to determine the starting lineup for the second main event and the crowd roared in approval when it stopped on zero. Schneider and Reft led the second 20-lap event to green with Schneider once again taking the lead. Lapped traffic gave Reft an opportunity to close the gap with Schneider, but he was unable to do so. At the finish it was Schneider getting his second victory of the evening. Jake Gunn was able to overtake Reft for the second spot. Reft, Zach Gunn, and Kyle Lukon finished third through fifth.

 

Kassandra Norman and Jason Genco led the Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Late Model feature event to the green Saturday at Stateline Speedway. Genco took the top spot at the green and never looked back as he went on to score a 5.580 second victory over Randy Hall. The win was Genco’s third at Stateline and seventh overall in RUSH Late Model action. David Parker, Rob Middleton, Jr., and William Pinckney rounded out the top five.

 

On Sunday evening the Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour made their final visit of the season at Tyler County Speedway as part of the inaugural “County Roads” event. Max Blair and Jeremy Wonderling led the 26-car field to the green with Blair taking the lead. Blair led the first eight circuits before third place starter Kyle Hardy passed him on a lap nine restart. Hardy went on to fend off Blair’s challenges and score his second consecutive Tour win by 1.373. Sixth place starter Daryl Charlier had a good night as he captured the third spot with Wonderling getting fourth. Ninth place starter Zach Carley completed the top five and continues to close the gap on Demetrios Drellos in the battle for the 3C Graphix Rookie-of-the-Year battle.

 

Sunday evening Kurt Stebbins used the high side of the speedway in RUSH Late Model action at Bradford Speedway to charge by half of the field. Stebbins then battled with Jacob Wilber to take the checkered and tally his second win of the season in Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Late Model Rick Hendrick City Chevrolet Weekly Series action. Ward Schell, Jacob Tubbs, and Garrett Mott followed at the finish.

 

Hovis Auto & Truck Supply Born2Run Lubricants Billy’s Garage RUSH Sprint Car teams spent the Labor Day weekend at Tri-City Raceway Park. Saturday’s action once again saw Blaze Myers jump into the lead and leave everyone else behind. Myers led the entire distance of the 15-lap event to collect the $800 first place prize.  Zach Morrow, Charlie Utsinger, Ricky Tucker, III, and Devon Deeter rounded out the top five.

 

Sunday evening’s event saw Myers start on the front row and once again rocket into the lead. Myers led the entire distance of the main event for the second night in a row to score his 11th win of the year at the Franklin, PA oval, and his 16th overall in Series action.  The win was worth a season best $1,000. Zach Morrow finished in second with Joe Buccola, Cooper Macormac and Wyatt Long following.

 

Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Pro Mod competitors headed to Stateline Speedway Saturday evening. Tim Peterson and Al Brewer led the field to the green with Brewer taking the top spot.

Strickland came home in the runner-up position with Raiddan Wilson, Diegelman and David McAvoy following.

 

Sunday evening at Tri-City Raceway Park the RUSH Stock Cars competed in a 20-lap feature that paid $1,000 to win. The front row saw William Baker and Camron Kramer lead the charge to the green; however, a complete restart was needed when Kaden Michael spun in turn one. On the second start, the duo of Baker and Kramer raced into turn one with Baker again pulling ahead. Two more cautions would slow the action before lap two was in the books, but once the race went green, it stayed that way for 19 consecutive laps.  A determined Baker withstood the persistent challenges of Kramer and drove a flawless race to score his third victory of the season at the Venango County speedway.  A disappointed Kramer once again settled for second with Billy Myers finishing third. Raidden Wilson, and Cole Laskey, who notched a season-best fifthplace finish, completed the top five.

KYLE HARDY OUT-DUELS MAX BLAIR FOR HIS 1ST CAREER TYLER COUNTY VICTORY & 2ND STRAIGHT ON THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND SWING FOR THE HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL FLYNN’S TIRE/GUNTER’S HONEY TOUR

By Mike Leone


 

August 31, 2025 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Middlebourne, WV)...The Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Series presented by Born2Run Lubricants completed a two-race Labor Day weekend swing for the Flynn's Tire/Gunter's Honey Touring Series on Sunday at Tyler County Speedway. Race #13 of 2025 was the second and final visit of the season to "America's Baddest Bullring" and was part of the 1/4-mile fairground facility's inaugural "Country Roads" event. The event was also part of the Dave Poske's Performance Parts Mid-Ohio Valley Series.

 

Eight days prior, Kyle Hardy had yet to win a RUSH-sanctioned feature in 2025.  Hardy broke the ice last Saturday night (August 23) winning a City Chevrolet Weekly Series event at his home track, Winchester Speedway. Then on Friday night, Hardy ended a winless drought of more than two years and four months on the Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour winning in his first ever appearance at Tri-City Raceway Park. Two nights later, Hardy completed the $8,000+ Labor Day weekend sweep by out-dueling Max Blair for his first career Tyler County victory! Hardy passed Blair on a restart on lap nine and fended him off throughout the 30-lap duration to reach Landrum Performance Victory Lane. In between, Hardy also added a $3,000 Super Late Model win at Elkins Speedway.  

 

“I was scratching my head watching the Super (Late Model) race and trying to figure out what my car needed- I can’t believe we hit the setup right,” acknowledged the 32-year-old Winchester, VA standout. “I’ve been trying to learn this and do it on my own. To beat Max Blair like that and have a clean race- I just can’t believe I could do it at Tyler County. I have a lot of respect for him. We’ve had a lot of fun races together. I’m not sure what tire he had on, but he fired off really good. I stayed there steady with him and had a good restart. I was nervous from there on out- trust me. Congrats to him for running top five in the Super race and running second here. I can’t wait to get home and celebrate with my girlfriend. It’s hard doing this for a living. A lot of this comes out of our pocket, but I have to thank Mike and Becky Hurley for allowing us to use a trailer and letting us tag along. We had a Super car here, but found out the header broke.”

 

Following the Dave Postke’s Performance Parts “Feel the RUSH” 4-Wide Salute, Blair and Wonderling led the 26-car to green with Blair racing into the lead over Wonderling and Hardy. As Blair continued to lead, Hardy was all over Wonderling in the battle for second. Hardy put a slider on Wonderling in turn two and made the pass stick on lap seven, which was good timing as a caution would slow action with eight laps completed. When racing resumed on lap nine, Hardy made the outside work for what would be the winning pass.

 

Kyle Thomas, who won the July 3 Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour event at Tyler County, started seventh and worked his way into third past Wonderling on lap 11 with Demetrios Drellos following in fourth one-lap later. Up front, Hardy caught lapped traffic on lap 16 allowing Blair to close in. Blair pulled even with Hardy on lap 17, but Hardy maintained the lead as the caution was displayed for Payton Dalton’s spin with 17 laps completed.

 

When racing resumed, Drellos and Thomas made contact with Thomas spinning and necessitating the caution with 18 laps scored. Back under green, Hardy and Blair distanced themselves from the field by lap 20. The event’s final caution was displayed for debris with 24 laps completed. Under caution, Drellos exited and yielded third to Wonderling. When green replaced yellow on lap 25, Charlier overtook Wonderling for third.

Hardy was able to keep the Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series all-time winner at bay over the final six laps as he took the checkered flag first by 1.373 seconds in his AGX Auto Glass/KHR/HT Roofing/Cline Construction/Dehaven Trailer Sales/MB Collectibles/Mike Hurley Motorsports/Xceptional Wildlife/Red Rock Tale Brickhouse-sponsored #99. Hardy’s 12th career Tour win to move past John Waters for fourth place on the Tour’s all-time win list.

 

Blair earned $2,000 for his runner-up finish and has finished on the podium in all four of his 2025 Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour starts this season including wins at Stateline and Eriez Speedways. “It was a fun race,” stated the 35-year-old Centerville, Pa. racer. “I really wish that last debris caution wouldn’t have come out because we were catching lapped traffic. He was really good up the race track- I couldn’t run up there, but I think I was better on the bottom. The lapped cars were dirtying the top up and I was catching him, and I thought ‘there’s just enough time left and this is going to be fun’ but the yellow came out. He was definitely better in clean air than I was. Clean air is so important in these cars and I don’t run the crate cars enough to really know what to do with them anymore. Even at Lernerville at the Firecracker, I was good all weekend long, but in the feature got stuck in dirty air and wasn’t good enough anymore. It was just like tonight, I thought we were really, really good all night long when I was out front, but in dirty air I’m just not good enough. We had a second-place car and that’s where we ended up. Hopefully we’ll get a chance to run this car some more and get better here and there.”

 

Charlier completed a strong weekend besting his fifth on Friday at Tri-City with a third for his third top five of the season worth $1,000. Wonderling was fourth for his fourth straight top five and 10th in 13 races to maintain the points lead in the race for the $20,000 championship. Ninth starting Zack Carley came home fifth for his third straight top six effort as he continues to close the gap on Drellos in the battle for the 3C Graphix Rookie-of-the Year chase.

 

In his first ever Tyler County start, New York's Bill Holmes III went 19th to 6th matching his season’s best effort from his home track, Genesee, on July 22. Jason Knowles went 22nd to 7th to earn the $50 Precise Racing Products “Pedal Down” Hard Charger gift card, which was his season’s sixth top 10 finish. Greg Carrico, a teammate to Hardy, returned to the Tour for the first time since the Independence Day swing at Tyler County and Ohio Valley Speedways, and was eighth. Russ King Racing Futures Cup points leader, George Casto III, was ninth. Nick Corbitt was 10th in his first career RUSH Tour start. Tyler County regular, Jim Cochran, was 14th and received a spoiler kit from Ontime Body & Graphic. Blake Runyon was the first feature non-qualifier and received a $50 Holley Performance gift card. 

 

Blair earned $100 for setting fast in FK Rod Ends “Shock the Clock” Qualifying with a 14.057 and earned $100. Winning $25 FK Rod Ends heat races were Blair, Wonderling, and Hardy. Holmes won the last chance B main. Blair became the 10th different Sunoco Dash winner of the season and received a $100 Sunoco fuel card. Also winning $100 Sunoco fuel cards in the random drawings were Knowles and Ben Easler, while the $50 fuel cards went to A.J. Spagnuolo, Corbitt, Carrico, and Brian Nethers.

 

Landrum Performance Springs, which will award the $5,000 Loyalty Bonus to an eligible Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series regular at the season ending event, distributed BOGO certificates on Sunday night, which were captured by Kolbe Kimbrew, Blake Runyon, Jeremy Wonderling, Mike Wonderling and Bill Holmes III.

(Franklin, PA)...The Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Flynn's Tire Gunter's Honey Touring Series made its second and final visit of the season to Tri-City Raceway Park on an overcast, October-like Friday evening. Race #12 of the 2025 season was the kickoff to the Franklin, Pennsylvania half-mile facility's three-night "Oil Region Labor Day Classic".

 

Tri-City has become the place to end winless skeins this season. Back in May, Daryl Charlier ended a three-year winless drought on the Flynn's Tire/Gunter's Honey Tour and on Friday night, Kyle Hardy ended his drought of more than two years and four months! Hardy ironically passed Charlier on lap 13 in lapped traffic then fended off a late charge by Christian Schneider for the $4,000 payday. Hardy, who just won his first RUSH-sanctioned race of 2025 last Saturday night at Winchester Speedway in a City Chevrolet Weekly Series event, became the 9th different Flynn's Tire/Gunter's Honey Tour winner in 12 races this season! 

 

"This feels good coming from a long ways down the road from here," acknowledged the 32-year-old Winchester, Virginia standout from Landrum Performance Victory Lane. "Our guys keep working hard and never give up. I'm glad to finally get a victory after these long trips. When we showed up we totally missed the idea of what this track was going to be. When I saw how big it was I thought it might fit up our alley because we won a race recently at Hagerstown and I put the exact numbers on it and knew the car would like the package. I wasn't sure about the tire I had so I have to thank Ed and Zack Carley for spotting me a tire. They seem like really good people and glad to call them my friends."  

 

"This is really good competition," added Hardy. "You have Daryl (Charlier), Jeremy (Wonderling), and Christian (Schneider) was just flying around here so I didn't know if I could beat them or not. Daryl is a good racer and I didn't think he was going to make a mistake and probably wishes he stayed in line. When that yellow came out and I saw Christian was up to third, I knew I couldn't make a mistake. If he (Schneider) was going to pass me he was going to have to earn, but I wasn't going to do him dirty because he raced me clean. He has a really good half-mile package here and at Pittsburgh, which really seems to fit that car. I thought he was going to stick that move on the outside." 

 

Following the Dave Poske's Performance Parts "Feel the RUSH" 4-Wide Salute, Charlier raced into the early lead over Hardy, Bill Holmes III, Jason Knowles, and Schneider. Schneider moved into fourth on lap two before a caution for a spin by Mike Wonderling. By lap five, Charlier and Hardy distanced themselves from the field, while Schneider was all over Holmes in the battle for third. Schneider drove under and past Holmes for the third on lap seven with Knowles following in fourth.

 

Current points leader and four-time Series champion, Jeremy Wonderling, started sixth and cracked the top five on lap 10 by getting by Holmes. Meanwhile back up front, Hardy closed in on Charlier on lap 12. Lapped traffic came into play on lap 13. Charlier went high in turn four to negotiate traffic, but Hardy raced by into the lead for what would be the winning pass. Schneider was closing in to make it a three-car battle for the lead when Knowles blew a tire running in fourth to bring out the event's second and final caution with 14 laps completed. 

 

When racing resumed at the halfway point, Schneider raced past Charlier for second. Hardy maintained a fairly comfortable lead on Schneider as the laps ticked off; however, Hardy caught traffic on lap 25, which allowed Schneider to close in. Heavy lapped traffic came into play on lap 27 with Schneider all over the leader. Hardy struggled to get by Logen Lockhart. Schneider went to the outside of Hardy and the two raced side-by-side on lap 28. Hardy was able to get past Lockhart and fended off Schneider's challenges by just 0.585 seconds at the finish in his first ever Tri-City appearance. 

 

The win was Hardy's 11th of his career on the Flynn's Tire/Gunter's Honey Tour but first since April 14, 2023 at Potomac Speedway, and came in his AGX Auto Glass/KHR/HT Roofing/Cline Construction/Dehaven Trailer Sales/MB Collectibles/Mike Hurley Motorsports/Xceptional Wildlife/Red Rock Tale Brickhouse-sponsored #99.

 

"I'm glad everyone ran a clean race," stated Hardy. "I can't say enough about all these guys that run the Tour. People give crate racing a bad name sometimes, but these guys we race with are purely class and that's why we come and run these shows because you know who you're racing against. I'm just glad to pull off this win- it's super tough to beat that 3J (Wonderling) and those guys." 


 

Schneider, who made his first Tour start since his first career win in the $6010 "Jook George Steel City Classic" at Pittsburgh PA Motor Speedway on July 26, earned $2,000 with another impressive performance on a half-mile track. "I almost pulled something out of my butt when Kyle (Hardy) washed up with the 58-car (Lockhart) on the bottom and I had momentum but I still probably couldn't have got him," explained the 27-year-old Pittsburgh Pa. driver. "He was so good and pretty damn consistent. Congratulations to him and Jeremy (Wonderling). I'm thrilled to be up here and race against these guys. I'm just going to ride this out until the luck runs out eventually, and keep putting in the work and show up with the intention that we're going to do as good as we can."

 

Wonderling passed Charlier on lap 29 to finish third and maintain his points lead. It was Wonderling's 8th podium finish in 12 races as he received a three-pack of Heritage Wine Cellars premium product along with Hardy and Schneider. Seventh starting Ryan Hare, who is in his first full season on the Tour, came home a career best fourth after passing Charlier on the final lap. Hare easily eclipsed his season best 12th from Stateline Speedway on August 9 and beat out his prior best on the Tour, which was a fifth at Tyler County Speedway on September 3, 2023. After leading the first 12 laps and running in the top three for the first 28 circuits, Charlier dropped to fifth at the finish for just his second top five of the season- both coming at Tri-City.

 

Zack Carley, who just came off his season's best third last Friday night at McKean County Raceway, was sixth to cut more into Demetrios Drellos' lead in the 3C Graphix Rookie-of-the-Year standings. Back in May at Tri-City, Ashton Briggs was fifth for his career best effort in five seasons on the Tour. Briggs had another solid run on Friday night going 12th to 7th. Bryce Davis raced from the 17th starting spot to 8th at the finish to earn the Precise Racing Products $50 gift card for being the "Pedal Down" Hard Charger recipient. Kyle Zimmerman was ninth. After being as high as fourth early on, Holmes faded to 10th for his first top 10 of the season in his rookie year on the Tour.

 

Second year RUSH racer, Andrew Chess, made his first start outside of Stateline and Eriez Speedways and the 16-year-old Ripley, NY driver came home 14th to earn a spoiler kit from Ontime Body & Graphic. Thanks to Tri-City owner Josh Shiffer, a RUSH Hoosier Tire was given away and won by Steve Hollabaugh, who made his first Tour start in more than two years.

 

Schneider set a new track record in qualifying with a lap of 18.708 to earn $100 for his first ever FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock" honor; in fact, the top six qualifiers all broke the 18.913 record established by Austin Hauser back in May! Schneider, Jeremy Wonderling, and Charlier won the $25 FK Rod Ends heat races. 

 

Charlier became the ninth different Sunoco Dash winner of the season and received a $100 Sunoco fuel card. Also winning $100 Sunoco fuel cards part of the "Fill'er up with Sunoco Bucks" program presented by Bazell Race Fuels were Tour drivers Charlier and Drellos, while the $50 Sunoco fuel cards went to Zimmerman, Chess, Lockhart, and Rob Coffaro.

 

Landrum Performance Springs, which will award the $5,000 Loyalty Bonus to an eligible Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series regular at the season ending event, distributed BOGO certificates on Friday night, which were captured by Hollabaugh, Hare, Brad Mesler, Jamie Wrightsman, and Mike Wonderling.

 

The Flynn’s Tire/Gunter's Honey Touring Series will return to action on Sunday (August 31) for the final appearance of the season at Tyler County Speedway in Middlebourne, WV for the inaugural "Country Roads" event with $4,000 on the line part of the Dave Poske's Performance Parts Mid-Ohio Valley Series. Warmups begin at 6 p.m. followed by qualifying and racing.

WINCHESTER TO HOST $5,000 TO-WIN HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL FLYNN'S TIRE/GUNTER'S HONEY TOURING SERIES EVENT THIS SATURDAY NIGHT

By Mike Leone


 

September 3, 2025 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Winchester, VA)...After a pair of Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Touring Series events over Labor Day weekend in Pennsylvania and West Virginia, the Tour returns to action this Saturday night (September 6) at Greg Gunter’s Winchester Speedway. Race #14 of the 2025 season will be the rescheduled $5,000 to-win event from May 3 at the Virginia high-banked clay oval.

 

The Tour has made eight appearances over the years at Winchester with six different winners.  Logan Roberson, the 2022 Flynn’s Tire/Gunter’s Honey Tour Champion, is the only multiple winner with three victories; in fact, Roberson has won three of the last five events.  Other winners include four other Virginia racers in Rick Singleton, Walker Arthur, Allen Brannon, and Kyle Hardy; however, in 2023, Canadian Charlie Sandercock scored the upset victory.  The 2024 event was rained out.  The last five Tour events at Winchester have attracted between 41-44 cars!

 

Winchester has hosted seven RUSH City Chevrolet Weekly Series events in 2025 with four different winners; RUSH Late Model rookie Cody Williams, 2023 Futures Cup Champion Davin Kaiser, 2017 Futures Cup Champion Devin Brannon, and Hardy have been victorious.  Brannon however is the only repeat winner with four victories. Kaiser, who has 10 wins at Dog Hollow Speedway, leads the City Chevrolet Track Pack points and is fourth in the City National Weekly Series points over Hardy. Winchester has averaged 22 cars per night with 46 different cars in competition this season. 

 

"Greg Gunter has been an integral part of the success of the RUSH Late Models in the Mid-Atlantic," stated RUSH Director Vicki Emig.  "Winchester has been the Mid-Atlantic home to weekly RUSH Late Model racing since 2014 and Greg has been gracious enough to host our Tour nearly every year.  Last year, Greg really stepped up to co-present our $20,000 to-win Touring Series Championship with Flynn's Tire and upped the ante with a $5,000 to-win Tour event at Winchester that unfortunately has been rained out the last two attempts.  The Mid-Atlantic racers are tough and always pose a challenge to our Touring Series regulars and with $5,000 on the line Saturday it should be quite the show."
