4-SCORE! SWANSON STRIKES AGAIN, WINS WINCHESTER’S RICH VOGLER CLASSIC

By: Richie Murray – USAC Media


 

Winchester, Indiana (June 27, 2025)………It had been more than a quarter century since a driver had won four consecutive races within a single USAC division at Indiana’s Winchester Speedway.


 

Throughout Friday night’s 34th running of the Rich Vogler Classic, Kody Swanson made certain it was going to be him as he swept the entire night of events at the 37 degree high-banked 1/2-mile paved oval.


 

Swanson (Kingsburg, California) started off the evening fastest in Dirt Draft Practice, then followed up by setting fast time in Honest Abe Roofing Qualifying before leading all 100 laps from the pole position aboard his Doran Binks Racing/Mission Foods – Wilke Orthodontics – Glenn Farms/Beast/Lanci Ford.


 

For Swanson, he partied like it was 1999 as only three previous drivers had won four-straight USAC main events at Winchester, the last two of which occurred 26 seasons ago.


 

Steve Chassey remains the all-time record holder with five consecutive USAC National Sprint Car victories at Winchester in 1979. Dave Steele collected four-in-a-row with the USAC National Sprint Cars in 1998-1999. Most recently, Ryan Newman corralled four straight USAC National Midget triumphs spanning 1998-1999.


 

Swanson has now authored four USAC Silver Crown wins at Winchester in succession, taking top honors in 2022-2023-2024-2025. Furthermore, Swanson also added another Rich Vogler Classic victory to his resume after also making winner’s circle visits in 2016 and 2019 when the event was held at Indianapolis Raceway Park.


 

He’s already the winningest USAC Silver Crown driver in the history of IRP, and over the past four years, Swanson has made a nice home for himself on the Winchester high banks.


 

“You come in here and respect the place because of how fast it is,” Swanson explained. “I used to struggle coming to the high banks and I remember them saying when I first moved here that, ‘well, if you want to go to Indy someday, you’ve got to get good at the high banks. I may never get to do the Indy part but I sure appreciate the chance to race here and some of the historic places we get to race at with the Silver Crown series.”


 

As coincidence would have it, the last individual to win four USAC races in a row at Winchester, Ryan Newman, was in the field on Friday night, making his first USAC appearance at Winchester since the 2000 season. In the years to come, the 1999 USAC Silver Crown titlist headed south to forge a two-decade-plus career in NASCAR, where he collected 18 career Cup Series wins, including the 2008 Daytona 500.


 

After earning his record-extending 57th career USAC Silver Crown Honest Abe Roofing Fast Qualifying award, Swanson immediately wrestled control of the field on lap one over the trailing C.J. Leary and Justin Grant. That said, the early race story belonged to veteran Brian Tyler. Over the course of the first six laps, the 11th place starting Tyler picked off one car per lap to race his way into the top-five.


 

The ever spectacular Tyler experienced several close encounters of the outside wall kind, making full contact with his right rear tire on lap 11, which white walled the sidewall as white paint dust speckled the air. By lap 23, he had scooted by Bobby Santos for fourth and was still rolling. On lap 43, Tyler pulled off what may have been the save of the year as he dirt tracked his ride through turns three and four, barely scraping by while completely sideways. However, Tyler seemingly never lifted and continued on without much hindrance. One lap later, however, Dakoda Armstrong pounced under Tyler for the fourth spot.


 

Tyler’s run proved to be short lived as, soon thereafter, he began to freefall through the field and was running 11th by the time he dropped off the pace on lap 69. Nonetheless, due to his “if you can’t win, be spectacular” style, Tyler was the recipient of the Inferno Armor Fire Move of the Night.


 

Up at the front of the field, Swanson remained in total control and began to stretch out his lead on second running Leary. For much of the first half of the race, Leary never strayed more than a few car lengths off Swanson’s rear bumper. But as the race wore on, Swanson wore the field down, increasing his lead to nearly two seconds with roughly 30 laps to go, but this was certainly no time to let up.


 

“C.J. kept pressure on me the whole time,” Swanson recalled. “Him, Justin (Grant) and the whole field here are really good and they’ll make you pay if you mess up.”


 

On lap 95 of 100, a mess did find its way into what had been a fairly clean race from the start. After hitting what the team believed to be a slick spot in turn one, 10th running Matt Westfall’s car skidded left and darted right, straight into the outside wall, causing major damage to the right front of the car. Just behind was hard luck, second place running C.J. Leary who attempted to avoid the accident, but as he skidded to miss Westfall, his right rear tire went completely flat, darting him to the bottom of turns one and two and to a stop. Both cars were towed away and unable to restart.


 

After what had been a relatively stress free environment for Swanson throughout the first 98 laps, the race had suddenly turned into a two-lap dash.


 

“I was just hoping I could outlast them and I’m out of breath because I feel like I was working hard every lap, especially the last two,” Swanson said. “I’m thankful I didn’t spin out on that last restart and I’m thankful that we had such a good car. Everyone kept trying all day, and even into qualifying, we were making changes and trying to make this number 77 better.


 

After the restart, Swanson’s quest stayed true to form, as he dashed to the finish line for his 47th career USAC Silver Crown win over Justin Grant, Dakoda Armstrong and Bobby Santos with Ryan Newman rounding out the top-five.


 

Nathan Byrd flew to his best career Winchester Speedway result. Starting 17th, Byrd edged his way through the field, passing 10 cars to finish a solid seventh to earn Rod End Supply Hard Charger honors.

Long Time Coming! Ohio’s Fremont & Millstream Return for USAC Sprints June 28-29

josh james

By: Richie Murray – USAC Media


 

Speedway, Indiana (June 25, 2025)………No matter how you slice it, it’s been a long time since the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship made their way over to Ohio’s Fremont Speedway and Millstream Speedway.


 

This Saturday, June 28, USAC National Sprint Cars visit Fremont’s 1/3-mile for the first time in 22 seasons. The following night, on Sunday, June 29, Millstream’s 4/10-mile serves as host for the series for the first time in 37 years!


 

Fresh off a weeklong tour of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, the series heads to the Buckeye State for a pair of events none of us have witnessed in a generation or two.

Here are some of the storylines!


 

 

A LONG TIME COMING


 

When the schedule was announced this past December, these two events stuck out as parts not often visited by USAC National Sprint Cars. Specifically, Fremont last welcomed USAC Sprint Cars in 2003 when Tracy Hines took the Buckeye Nationals round. J.J. Yeley scored there in 2002 while Eddie Leavitt took top honors in 1981. The track record of 14.655 second is held by Jay Drake, set in 2003.


 

As far as Millstream, like Fremont, there has been a different winner in every USAC National Sprint Car race held at the track. Millstream harkens back earlier into USAC history with Rollie Beale and Sammy Sessions taking trophies there in 1975. Rivals Gary Bettenhausen and Larry Dickson pocketed the top prizes in 1976. Jac Haudenschild won his first USAC main event at Millstream in 1982, and earlier that night, established the still standing USAC track record (without a wing) of 17.941 seconds. Brad Doty scored the most recent Millstream USAC victory (with a wing!) back in 1988.


 

 

THE CURRENT DAY


 

Kyle Cummins experienced pretty much a flawless Eastern Storm last week, finishing 4th-1st-2nd-3rd-4th in his five starts during the week, yet still came up just short on the miniseries title to Justin Grant via a tiebreaker.


 

Disappointed, sure. But those results are certainly still championship caliber performances, and that’s kept Cummins afloat lately to where he carries a sizable 95-point lead in the standings heading to Ohio.


 

Furthermore, Cummins’ current run of 19 consecutive top-10 finishes to start the season are the most since C.J. Leary’s title season of 2019 when he netted 21-straight to open up the year.


 

 

AFTER THE STORM


 

Fresh off a USAC Eastern Storm championship in which he won three of the five events, Justin Grant is feeling strong. He trails only Kyle Cummins in terms of feature victories with five compared to Cummins’ six.


 

On nine previous occasions, a driver has parlayed an Eastern Storm title into a USAC National Sprint Car crown at season’s end: Levi Jones (2007-2010-2011), Bryan Clauson (2012-2013), Brady Bacon (2014), Robert Ballou (2015), Chris Windom (2017) and C.J. Leary (2019).


 

 

TURNING THE CORNER


 

Entering Eastern Storm, Jake Swanson had accrued just two top-five finishes throughout the first 14 events of the USAC National Sprint Car season. During Eastern Storm, he posted three alone in his last four starts.


 

The Anaheim, California native put together a string of 5th-4th-6th-2nd to close out Eastern Storm, which has him and his newly-built team looking like they’ve turned the corner heading into a busy summer stretch.


 

The same could be said for Kevin Thomas Jr., who notched his second win of the year last Friday at Williams Grove. It’s been a weird, strange trip for the Rock Steady bunch this year, but after residing outside of the top-10 of the standings for much of the year, they now stand 11th and are coming off a podium finish in their most recent outing on Sunday in Kutztown.


 

 

MADMAN & COMPANY


 

Robert Ballou has won at Fremont Speedway in his career, collecting a Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Series (BOSS) score there in 2013.


 

Sitting sixth in the series standings, Ballou is among those looking to notch his first USAC win of the season this weekend in Ohio, along with other frontrunners such as Mitchel Moles (3rd in points), Briggs Danner (4th), Jake Swanson (7th), Kale Drake (8th) and C.J. Leary (10th), just to name a few in the top-10.


 

The theme continues with the neck and neck Rookie of the Year battle between Gunnar Setser (11th) and Hayden Reinbold (12th), who are separated by just 20 points in the standings, and are both vying for first victories after both achieved their best career USAC Sprint Car results in recent weeks, Setser with a 5th Knoxville and Reinbold with a 7th at Williams Grove.

USAC Silver Crown Hits Winchester’s Banks June 27

 Indy Racing Images

By: Richie Murray – USAC Media


 

Winchester, Indiana (June 25, 2025)………Four past Winchester Speedway winners and a whole host of hungry others will take on the legendary high banks for this Friday night’s June 27 USAC Silver Crown Rich Vogler Classic at the eastern Indiana speed plant well-known for its high speeds, high intensity and high drama.


 

Among the 19 entries in the field are four drivers who have previously tamed the 37-degree high banks in their USAC career.

 


 

FOUR PAST WINNERS


 

Kody Swanson enters as the winner of the past three USAC Silver Crown races at Winchester in 2022-2023-2024 and has captured the pole position in all four. He also enters as the most recent series winner on the pavement at WWT Raceway on June 14.


 

Current series point leader Justin Grant scored the win in a photo finish over Swanson in the inaugural Silver Crown round at Winchester in 2021. Brian Tyler makes his return to the series following a three-year absence. He captured a pair of USAC Sprint Car wins at the track in 1997-1998, and one more surprise entry.

 


 

HELLO NEWMAN


 

The surprise of the entry list is Kazmark Motorsports fielding Ryan Newman, an 18-time NASCAR Cup Series winner and the 2008 winner of the Daytona 500. Newman, the 1999 USAC Silver Crown champion, has experienced his share of USAC victories at Winchester, five in fact. He won four times in USAC Midget competition at Winchester between 1998-1999 and also added a USAC National Sprint Car victory in 1999.


 

Interestingly, Newman is the most recent driver to win four consecutive USAC features with a single series at Winchester Speedway. It’s a record Swanson is aiming to tie this Friday. Newman also swept both ends of the Rich Vogler Classic in 2000, which was a NAMARS sanctioned Sprint and Midget doubleheader that year.


 

 

ONE SPOT UP THE ORDER


 

Another pair of drivers would like to jump over the hump after garnering runner-up finishes in recent USAC Silver Crown outings at Winchester, including Logan Seavey (2nd in 2022) and Bobby Santos (2nd in 2023 & 2024). While Seavey is seeking his first career Silver Crown win on the pavement, Santos is among the most decorated pavement specialists in USAC history and is vying for his first win of the USAC Silver Crown season.

 


 

BACK TO THE BANKS


 

Previous Winchester USAC Silver Crown podium finishers Taylor Ferns (3rd in 2022) and C.J. Leary (3rd in 2024) will also take on the banks this Friday as will top USAC Silver Crown Rookie of the Year contender Jackson Macenko (10th in 2024).


 

Also back in the field for Friday are those who have previous Winchester Silver Crown starts. The list includes Nathan Byrd (11th in 2022 & 2024), Matt Westfall (13th in 2023), Gregg Cory (13th in 2024), Dakoda Armstrong (14th in 2024), Kyle Steffens (15th in 2024), Dave Berkheimer (19th in 2021) and Tyler Roahrig (22nd in 2024).


 

 

WINCHESTER ROOKIES


 

Meanwhile, Jake Trainor and Colton Bettis are the lone drivers in Friday’s lineup without previous USAC Silver Crown racing experience at Winchester. But both have experienced racing teams behind them with Klatt Enterprises (Trainor) and Sam Pierce Racing (Bettis) routinely being among the fastest at Winchester for decades.


 

Both Trainor and Bettis have been dynamite on the pavement with Trainor recently garnering midget and sprint car wins on the asphalt, including May’s Little 500, at Anderson (Ind.) Speedway, while Bettis has been a master on the Florida winged pavement sprint car circuit.


 

 

RACE DETAILS


 

An open practice will be held for all teams on Thursday, June 26, from 7-10pm Eastern. Pits open at 6pm.


 

On race day, Friday, June 27, the pits open at 1pm with the drivers meeting at 3pm. Grandstands open at 3:30pm. USAC Silver Crown on-track action gets underway at 4:05pm Eastern with the first practice, followed by the second Silver Crown practice at 5:10pm. Silver Crown qualifying is scheduled for 6:10pm with an autograph session at 7:45pm, opening ceremonies at 8:15pm and the 100-lap Silver Crown main event slated for an 8:30pm green flag. All times Eastern.


 

Tickets will be sold at the gate on race day. General admission tickets are $30 (ages 18 and up), $10 (ages 13-17) and free (ages 12 and under).


 

Tickets are also available in advance at: https://www.winchester-speedway.com/. Reserved seating is $35 (ages 12 and up), $15 for children. A weekend camping spot is $30.


 

The 33rd running of the Rich Vogler Classic will feature the USAC Silver Crown National Championship, plus Modifieds, Thunder Roadsters & Vintage Cars.

The Hunt for Red Hill! USAC Sprints Return After 26 Year Hiatus on Friday

josh james

By: Richie Murray – USAC Media


 

Sumner, Illinois (June 11, 2025)………Ten thousand dollars to win are on the line at the inaugural Salute to Levi Jones this Friday night, June 13, at Red Hill Raceway in Sumner, Illinois.


 

The rare Friday the 13th event for the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship at the 3/8-mile dirt oval in southern Illinois presents an even rarer treat – USAC racing at Red Hill.


 

It’s been 26 years since USAC last visited Red Hill in 1998, which just so happened to mark the occurrence of Levi Jones’ first career USAC start, finishing 16th. Levi, who grew up 15 minutes from the track in his native Olney, went on to become a seven-time USAC national champion, and in 2024, was inducted into the USAC Hall of Fame.

Let’s see some of the storylines to check out entering USAC’s return to Red Hill!

 


 

PARTY LIKE IT’S 1998


 

26 years flew by in the snap of a finger. In fact, the last time a USAC National Sprint Car race was held at Red Hill on October 3, 1998, Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing,” Barenaked Ladies’ “One Week” and Edwin McCain’s “I’ll Be” occupied spots in the top-five of the Billboard Music charts. And all of us were a little bit younger.


 

That night, Derek Davidson captured the victory, then later became an Indianapolis 500 winning Crew Chief and Race Strategist for Takuma Sato at Rahal Letterman Racing in 2020.


 

The evening also had its share of controversy as championship contenders Tony Elliott and Kevin Thomas met bumper to bumper, sending Thomas into a 360 spin late in the race. A yearlong feud had come to a head and ultimately led to Thomas’ suspension for his conduct in the aftermath of the incident and Elliott’s first USAC title.


 

At any rate, Elliott remains the one-lap track record holder for USAC at Red Hill with a time of 15.498 seconds, which drivers will be chasing this weekend. Meanwhile, the 8-lap track record is held by NHRA Top Fuel champion Doug Kalitta from 1996 at a clip of 2:11.77.


 

 

DRAKE RIDING THE WAVE


 

Fresh off his USAC Indiana Midget Week championship to begin June, Kale Drake now looks to expand his winning horizons to USAC National Sprint Cars.


 

The Collinsville, Oklahoma racer has already won twice in the midgets this year, and at press time, has finished on the podium in each of his past five outings with the series.

With the sprint cars, he’s been an upstart in 2025, finishing inside the top-10 in nine of his 13 starts this season with a best career result of 4th at Bloomington in May.


 

To boot, there is a tie in. Back in 2004, Levi Jones captured his first career USAC National Sprint Car win at North Carolina’s Charlotte Motor Speedway while driving Scott Benic’s No. 2B. This Friday, Drake’s first USAC Sprint Car win could come in Benic’s No. 2B in the race named for Levi Jones.

 


 

CUMMINS LEADS THE CHARGE


 

Kyle Cummins once again enters the weekend as the USAC National Sprint Car point leader, a position he’s held for the entire duration of the season so far.


 

In 13 series starts so far this year, he’s won five and hasn’t finished worse than 8th. The Princeton, Indiana native’s run of 13 consecutive top-10s to start the year are the most since Justin Grant’s 15 in 2020. All of that has Cummins’ point lead standing at 53 over Justin Grant entering Red Hill.


 

Interestingly, Kyle’s father, Mark Cummins, competed in the 1998 Red Hill event in the Vennard No. 56x, team car to that of Kevin Thomas that night. Mark qualified 24th, transferred through his heat to finish 4th and ran 18th in the feature.


 

Joining Cummins in the field are 2025 series winners Justin Grant, Logan Seavey and Kevin Thomas Jr. as well as first-time 2025 winning hopefuls Mitchel Moles, Briggs Danner, Robert Ballou, C.J. Leary, Kale Drake and Jake Swanson, all of whom rank inside the top-10 of the standings along with top Rookies Gunnar Setser, Hayden Reinbold, Kayla Roell and more.


 

 

MAD MAN ACROSS THE BORDER


 

Robert Ballou can count himself among the Red Hill winners in this Friday night’s field. In August of 2024, the Rocklin, California native picked off a Midwest Thunder Sprint Car win at the track.


 

The Mad Man has been knocking on the door of victory all year long with the USAC National Sprint Cars, especially of late with a 3rd, a 5th, a 2nd, a 6th, a 4th and an 8th in his six most recent starts.


 

Red Hill could prove to be the place for a Ballou breakthrough. He finished 6th and 3rd in each of his USAC Sprint Car starts on the Land of Lincoln side of the Illinois border in 2024.

 


 

STOCKON HAS CONQUERED RED HILL


 

Chase Stockon has a bit of history with Red Hill Raceway. In recent years, the Fort Branch, Indiana racer has won at the track twice in sprint car competition in the Fall of 2023 and in the Spring of 2024.


 

Stockon has been rock solid with the USAC National Sprint Cars in 2025, finishing inside the top-10 in each of his past six series starts.


 

On the final weekend of May, he led 20 laps at Iowa’s Knoxville Raceway and finished third, nearly giving car owners Tom & Laurie Sertich their first career USAC victory. A big win at Red Hill this Friday would be massive for the longtime team and would present Stockon with his first USAC score in nearly five seasons.

 


 

ROGERS TOO!


 

Jadon Rogers scored the most recent sprint car feature win at Red Hill back in October of 2024. The Worthington, Indiana racer advanced from 6th to 1st to win the Midwest Thunder show last fall.


 

As far as his USAC season up to this point, Rogers can tell you a twisted tale of his month of May, from being the windshield one weekend to the bug the next.


 

Rogers posted back-to-back southern Indiana top-fives in USAC National Sprint Car competition at Bloomington and Tri-State in mid-May. On the final weekend of the month, he finished with back-to-back last place results at Iowa’s Knoxville Raceway.


 

The turn of the calendar to June probably couldn’t have come at a better time as Rogers now pursues his first USAC main event victory since September 2022.

The Champ! Drake Dashes to 2025 USAC Indiana Midget Week Title

Jack Reitz

By: Richie Murray – USAC Media


 

Speedway, Indiana (June 9, 2025)………In what was among the shortest editions of USAC Indiana Midget Week in its 21-year history, Kale Drake came up large to earn the series title and a $15,000 prize.


 

The originally scheduled six-race slate was sliced to three after a trio of consecutive rain outs at Lincoln Park Speedway, Bloomington Speedway and Tri-State Speedway made it so that there was little wiggle room for error, making every point gained more coveted than ever before.


 

Drake’s total take home pay of 23,500 for the series arrived after three consecutive podium finishes, including his first career Indiana Midget Week win in Tuesday’s opener at Circle City Raceway, followed by a 3rd at Paragon Speedway on Wednesday and a 2nd in Sunday’s Kokomo Speedway finale, all of which netted him a 22-point triumph in the final tally.


 

The Collinsville, Oklahoma native became the third Okie to capture a USAC Indiana Midget Week championship, joining Christopher Bell (2013) and Daison Pursley (2024). Additionally, Drake’s performance led to Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports’ eighth Indiana Midget Week title after the team previously got the job done with Christopher Bell (2013), Rico Abreu (2014-2015), Spencer Bayston (2018), Logan Seavey (2019) and Buddy Kofoid (2021-2022).


 

“I’m super grateful for this entire crew,” Drake praised. “Every single one of them plays a really big role in this. Without each and every one of them, none of this would be possible.”


 

The three-race IMW was the shortest in nearly two decades with a two-race series taking place in 2006 and a three-race slate the year prior during the inaugural running of the event in 2005. That led to little room for error among Drake and his competition who entered the final race at Kokomo among the 17 drivers in the championship hunt.


 

“Going into this last one, we’d only gotten two races in,” Drake began. “The points gap was really close with 17 drivers mathematically able to win, which was probably one of the most ever. You really had to buckle down to make sure you earn qualifying points, heat race points, and most of all, finish with a good feature result at the end of the night.”


 

Drake, who also serves as a crewman on the KKM team, has elevated his profile over the course of the 2025 season. After IMW, he now sits second in the season long USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship standings and is on a streak of five consecutive top-three finishes.


 

It’s not lost on Drake regarding the fact that each of the past four Indiana Midget Week champs has gone on to win the USAC National Midget title later that same season: Kofoid (2021-2022), Logan Seavey (2023) and Daison Pursley (2024). Drake intends to become the next in succession.


 

“Man, I’m excited for this season,” Drake exclaimed. “It’s still really, really early, but to have five podiums in a row is just super awesome. I know we didn’t get to race the whole midget week, but we’ll take it. You can’t really be too greedy here. You’ve got to take the little wins when you can.”


 

Jacob Denney (Galloway, Ohio) won two of the three Indiana Midget Week events, leading all 30 laps at Paragon and then charging from 17th to the win at Kokomo, marking the largest charge to win of any driver in USAC National Midget competition since at least 2019. In fact, two of the three races during IMW 2025 were won by Rod End Supply Hard Chargers, including Drake who advanced 9th to 1st at Circle City.


 

An 11th place feature result for Denney in the Circle City opener doomed his chances at a title, but he still managed to race his way back to third in the points behind runner-up Justin Grant (Ione, California). Kevin Thomas Jr. (Cullman, Alabama) took fourth with IMW newcomer Karter Sarff (Mason City, Illinois) fifth and Cannon McIntosh (Bixby, Oklahoma) sixth.


 

The top-six in Indiana Midget Week points finished “in the money” with Drake pocketing $15,000 followed by Grant ($6,000), Denney ($4,000), Thomas ($2,500), Sarff ($1,500) and McIntosh ($1,000).


 

Additionally, Denney picked up USAC Indiana Midget Week Parallax Group Passing Master honors with 25 passes, 16 of which came in the Kokomo feature while Preston Norbury (Chino Valley, Arizona) earned $500 with the ProSource Perseverance Award.


 

Denney led the most laps in the series (36), while Drake was the only driver to finish inside the top-five in all three events. Drake, Grant and Thomas were the lone three drivers who finished all three of their starts inside the top-10.


 

Sarff, making his Indiana Midget Week debut, led all drivers with two Honest Abe Roofing Fast Qualifying times at Paragon and Kokomo. Drake, Thomas Meseraull and Gunnar Setser all scored a pair of heat race victories.


 

Forty-five drivers participated in Indiana Midget Week 2025 representing 14 United States (Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania & Texas), as well as two different countries (United States & Australia). Sixteen drivers started all three feature events.

2025 USAC Indiana Midget Week Preview

Indy Racing Images

 

By: Richie Murray – USAC Media


 

Speedway, Indiana (June 2, 2025)………It’s the most wonderful time of the year!


 

No, it’s not Christmastime. But for any racing junkie, this might as well be Christmas in June as six nights at six different racetracks await the USAC Midget National Championship for the 21st annual edition of USAC Indiana Midget Week on June 3-8.


 

The IMW docket consists of six events in all, with the frenzied and action packed week beginning at Circle City Raceway in Indianapolis on Tuesday, June 3, before the return of Paragon for the first time since 2021 on Wednesday, June 4.


 

From there, the series follows a path of familiar favorites at Putnamville’s Honest Abe Roofing Lincoln Park Speedway on Thursday, June 5; Bloomington Speedway on Friday, June 6; Haubstadt’s Tri-State Speedway on Saturday, June 7; with the finale set for Kokomo Speedway on Sunday, June 8.


 

USAC Indiana Midget Week is the hottest ticket in town with sprint cars also serving as the support class each and every night. A plethora of drivers will be jumping back-and-forth between the two machines throughout the night in double-duty mode.


 

The Indiana Midget Week champion will earn a prize of $15,000 for their efforts in a week that truly tests the physical, mental and mechanical abilities of each driver, crew and machine.


 

Let’s dig into it! Here are six storylines we’re watching entering USAC Indiana Midget Week 2025.


 

 

THE USAC MIDGET DOUBLE PLAY


 

Justin Grant leads the USAC National Midget season standings entering Indiana Midget Week, already garnering two victories on the season for he and his CB Industries team at Kokomo and Belleville.


 

Throughout the history of IMW, just four drivers have entered as the USAC National point leader and went on to win the Indiana Midget Week championship: Jerry Coons Jr. (2007), Darren Hagen (2012), Rico Abreu (2014) and Buddy Kofoid (2021).


 

If Grant is able to collect this year’s IMW title, the odds say he’s in good company. All four of the aforementioned drivers also went on to claim the USAC National Midget championship later that same year.


 

Along with Grant, Cannon McIntosh (-16), Kale Drake (-43), Logan Seavey (-57), Jacob Denney (-61) are within striking distance in the series championship races, and these six races could go a long way in forging a path to the top of the standings.


 

Additionally, each of the last four Indiana Midget Week champs have also captured the USAC National Midget title in the same season: Buddy Kofoid (2021-22), Logan Seavey (2023) and Daison Pursley (2024). Overall, nine drivers have won the Indiana Midget Week title and the USAC National Midget championship in the same season: Jerry Coons Jr. (2007), Bryan Clauson (2011), Darren Hagen (2012), Christopher Bell (2013) and Rico Abreu (2014).


 

 

INDIANA MIDGET WEEK BREAKTHROUGHS


 

A handful of this year’s Indiana Midget Week contingent scored their first career USAC National Midget feature wins during IMW. That particular list includes Steve Buckwalter (Gas City 2010), Kyle Cummins (Tri-State 2021), Jacob Denney (Lincoln Park 2022) and Gavin Miller (Bloomington 2023).


 

Over the past 20 years, 14 drivers in total have achieved this feat, including Johnny Rodriguez (Terre Haute 2005), Shane Cottle (Gas City 2006), Brady Bacon (Kokomo 2006), Kyle Larson (Bloomington 2011), Christopher Bell (Lincoln Park 2013), Tanner Thorson (Gas City 2015), Spencer Bayston (Gas City 2016), Tyler Courtney (Montpelier 2017), Chris Windom (Lawrenceburg 2019) and Corey Day (Circle City 2021).


 

No driver was able to break through for USAC win number one during IMW 2024 a year ago. However, this year, there are certainly some prime contenders to get the job done. Steven Snyder Jr. and Gunnar Setser both currently reside inside the top-10 of the standings, while Karter Sarff, a two-time Xtreme Outlaw Midget winner in 2025, looks to be a frontrunner in his first IMW appearance.


 

Drake Edwards, Kyle Jones and Cale Coons have all finished inside the top-five with USAC this season, while Hayden Reinbold and Ethan Mitchell have made some successful noise in each of their Indiana Midget Week careers.

 


 

AUSSIES IN ACTION


 

Four Aussie racers are expected to compete throughout USAC Indiana Midget Week, all hailing from Western Australian.


 

Tom Payet (Treeby) and Jake Robinson (Perth) will wheel a pair of LynK Australia entries built by Keith Kunz Motorsports. Meanwhile, Kaiden Manders (Port Kennedy) and Daniel Harding (Perth) will each be in team cars fielded by Dan Golding Racing.


 

Although Australians have had their share of success in the states over the years, no Aussie driver has ever won a USAC National Midget feature. Adam Clarke came the closest with a runner-up finish at Eldora Speedway in 2006. In fact, only one non-American driver has scored an Indiana Midget Week triumph, that being three-time winner Michael Pickens of New Zealand.

 


 

THE WIDE WORLD OF MIDGET WEEK


 

A roster of around 40 drivers from coast to coast and around the world are expected to compete at some of all events throughout USAC Indiana Midget Week, from Pennsylvania to California and from Canada to Australia.


 

Among them are 14 USAC National Midget main event winners: Steve Buckwalter (#25), Kyle Cummins (#3G), Zach Daum (#5d), Jacob Denney (#67), Kale Drake (#97K), Justin Grant (#87), Chase McDermand (#40m), Cannon McIntosh (#71K), Thomas Meseraull (#7x), Gavin Miller (#97), Daison Pursley (#86), Logan Seavey (#57), Kevin Thomas, Jr. (#14) and Zach Wigal (#8).


 

Many more will be making their Indiana Midget Week debuts, such as Jakeb Boxell (#14JB), Trevor Cline (#55), Cale Coons (#63), Mitchell Davis (#91), Daniel Harding (#71w), Preston Norbury (#77), Tom Payet (#7AU), Brecken Reese (#00), Jake Robinson (#8AU), Colton Robinson (#67K), Corbin Rueschenberg (#26), Karter Sarff (#21K), Gunnar Setser (#43), K.J. Snow (#86) and top series Rookie Steven Snyder Jr. (#4).


 

Returning to Indiana Midget Week field are Blake Brannon (#40), Drake Edwards (#83), Frankie Guerrini (#63G), Chelby Hinton (#4B), Kyle Jones (#27x), Kaiden Manders (#71), Trey Marcham (#85), Ethan Mitchell (#19m), Hayden Reinbold (#19AZ), Jeff Schindler (#8x) and Glenn Styres (#0G).

 


 

#100 ON THE HORIZON THIS WEEK


 

If all goes according to plan, Indiana Midget Week will celebrate its 100th event during the upcoming series this week.


 

With 95 events taking place dating back to its 2005 origins, the Tri-State Speedway round on Saturday, May 7, is slated to be the 100th event run in the series’ 21-year history at press time.


 

USAC Hall of Famer Jay Drake won the inaugural feature race held at Lawrenceburg Speedway on August 18, 2005. Since then, 244 different drivers have started an Indiana Midget Week feature.


 

Bryan Clauson owns the most Indiana Midget Week championships with three in 2009-11-16. Bryan Clauson and Kyle Larson are the winningest drivers in Indiana Midget Week history with nine apiece.


 

Larson and Rico Abreu have clocked in with the most top qualifying times in IMW history with nine each. Jerry Coons Jr. has recorded the most career IMW feature starts (64) and top-10 results (42). Meanwhile, Clauson collected 28 top-fives in his IMW career, which still ranks number one all-time.
