Three Big Race Stretch Set For Super Late Model Racing

The road to the end of the 2025 season runs through three big Super Late Model events. This Saturday October 25th Cordele Motor Speedway kicks off the 3 race stretch with the World Crown 300. Following Cordele the Appalachian Sucker Punch ASA STARS National Tour will conclude their 2025 season with the 40th running of the All American 400 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway on November 7-9. To cap it off one week later the ASA Southern Super Series will crown its 2025 Champion at New Smyrna Speedway as a part of the 60th running of the Florida Governor’s Cup.

The World Crown 300 – Cordele Motor Speedway

The prestigious World Crown 300 returns to Cordele Motor Speedway in Georgia this weekend where some of the nation’s top Super Late Model drivers will battle for 300 laps in the watermelon capital of the world. Notable entries include Jake Garcia, Gavan Boschele and Colby Howard. Drivers from all over the south will battle it out for the coveted World Crown trophy. The event also pays an astonishing $35,000 to win and $3,000 to start.

The 40th Running of the All American 400 – Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway

The spotlight then shifts to Music City for one of the most iconic events in all of short track racing, the All American 400 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway. Nearly 30 Super Late Model teams have already filed entries for the All American 400 weekend. Headliners include ASA STARS National Tour championship contenders, former race winners, and rising stars from across the country, all set to compete for the coveted guitar trophy.

The All American 400’s winner’s list reads like a who’s who of short track racing — featuring names such as Bob Senneker, Jim Sauter, Gary Balough, Rusty Wallace, Butch Miller, Freddie Query, Gary St. Amant and Jeff Purvis.

The All American 400 weekend will once again feature the ASA STARS National Tour in a 300-lap main event, joined by Pro Late Models and support divisions as part of a full weekend of racing and celebration. Fans can also enjoy the El Bandido Yankee Tequila Championship Kickoff Party at Kid Rock’s Big Honky Tonk on Thursday night. 

The Florida Governor’s Cup 200 – New Smyrna Speedway

The crown jewel finale brings the ASA Southern Super Series to the Sunshine State for the 60th running of the Florida Governor’s Cup at New Smyrna Speedway. A staple of Florida short track racing the Governor’s Cup has been won by many of the sport’s most legendary names from Ed Howe to Dick Trickle. 

The event was first held at Golden Gate Speedway where it quickly became one of the premier Super Late Model events in the Southeast. After more than a decade at Golden Gate, the race moved briefly to Showtime Speedway for one year, returned to Golden Gate for three more seasons, then shifted back to Showtime for another three-year stint. In 1988, the Governor’s Cup found its permanent home at New Smyrna Speedway, where it has been held ever since.

Following the Florida Governor’s Cup teams will have a few weeks off before heading to Pensacola, FL for the biggest race in short track racing, the Snowball Derby.

About Super Cup Stock Car Series It is with great excitement that we announce the formation of the highly anticipated SuperCup Stock Car Series (SCSCS).  This series will feature former Hooter's ProCup Steel bodied stock cars that competed from 2001-2006.  The new series recently competed in two exhibition races in 2007 at both Hickory Motor Speedway and Tri-County Motor Speedway in NC.  Both races were very competitive and featured a glimpse of the anticipated competition in 2008.


 

 


 

SUPER SOUTHERN SERIES

 

www.southernsuperseries.com

The American Speed Association (ASA) is a sanctioning body of motorsports in the United States formed in 1968. The Association was based in Pendleton, Indiana, and later in Daytona Beach, Florida. The ASA sanctioned asphalt and dirt tracks in their ASA Member Track program along with racing series in the United States and Canada.


 

Shenandoah, Virginia (October 7, 2025) – The points finale for the Super Cup Stock Car Series this past Saturday night was not without its intense moments.  Since the Veterans Classic in late August was not able to be concluded in its entirety, 10 teams returned to Shenandoah Speedway with the first of twin 35-lap races serving as “part two” of the annual event.

 

With an earlier start in the day than the last outing, track conditions were much warmer and thus greasier than the prior visit.  Nevertheless, former local Legends competitor Damian Payton was within a tenth of his qualifying time previously, good enough to earn his first career SCSCS Pole Award circulating the 3/8-mile progressively-banked oval in 17.019 seconds.

 

Parkersburg, West Virginia’s Eric Barber turned in a personal best third fastest effort in time trials and redrew the first starting position.  It was Payton though starting from the outside that got to the lead by the first corner and led for several laps early on, also his first laps led in SCSCS competition.  Barber continued consistently following in the No. 64 McElligott Performance and Design / Cozy Cabins at Shady Grove / Payton Racing Chevrolet’s tracks, as both maneuvered around lapped traffic.

 

A pivotal moment with the slower cars occurred on lap 28 of the main event.  Barber dove low in a bid for the lead upon approaching another car into the turn, completing the pass for the top spot in the process, and going on to defend the position out front and cross the line first when the checkered flag flew.

 

However, the No. 2 WeAreJ6.com / Eric Barber Enterprises Chevrolet would not be scored as the race winner, based on a rule that has been in place since year one at Shenandoah Speedway due to the fact there are no inside walls in the corners and therefore is monitored during each SCSCS visit.

 

“It was the 2 and the 64, they were side by side coming to a lapped car and going into (turn) 3, the 2 went well below the apron and gained a significant advantage on the 64, since the 64 had to go the long way around,” Chris Lilly, who served as the Race Director for the SCSCS races as well as all of the local races at the track throughout the season, explained.  “We went over that in the drivers meeting, with track limitations you cannot pass four tires below the line.  I made multiple calls on the radio to ask him to give his spot back within the lap, which the driver did not do so, so he was going to be scored behind whoever it is that he passes.  I understand he may not be happy about it, but I was pretty clear about it in the drivers meeting.  Just want to be fair and it’s pretty black and white.”

 

Lurking behind the leaders was a familiar face that has not been seen since his victories at Kingsport Speedway back in April.  Ben Ebeling’s son had a football game and his daughters were in a pageant earlier in the day close to their Hickory, North Carolina home, so he did not show up at the track until shortly before the green flag.  For the first time in 57 previous SCSCS starts, he had to climb the No. 44 Good Frames, LLC / Ashton Racing Ford from the rear of the field without a single lap of practice or participation in qualifying.

 

The battle up front allowed Ebeling, who at this moment was third, to steadily catch Payton and pass him with five laps remaining, once again with the help of navigating slower traffic.  Despite being second at the start-finish line, the 2021 SCSCS champion would be credited with the official win after some post-race words were deescalated.

 

“It took a few laps to knock the rust off and get my bearings to feel where the car was,” Ebeling, acquiring his fifth Veterans Classic trophy, indicated.  “Car wasn’t as good as we’ve been here in the past, so I think it was more right place right time.

 

“I’ve been on the other end of that before.  I got penalized a few years ago for putting more than two tires below the white line.  I understand why the 2 car went down there, but a rule is a rule and it’s not my fight.  64 and the 2 were racing real hard and that lapped traffic caught all of us up together and when they got kind of tangled up, we were able to get around (Payton) and hold him off there for the last couple laps.”

 

Payton would get his second runner-up result of 2025 with Petersburg, West Virigina’s Brent Nelson rounding out the podium.  Mitch Gibson quietly brought the No. 35 Moyer Brothers Company / LDW Technologies / Superior Welding / 1500channels.com / Jeffrey Salyers Realty / Trevor’s Team / Ashton Racing Ford to a fourth-place finish, which was good enough to clinch the championship going into the second race.  Rob Hindt from Elkton, Maryland securely rounded out the top five in the No. 42 Drive 2 Thrive / JPR Pontiac for a second consecutive race.

 

Furthermore, Barber was placed sixth in the final finishing order.  A competition bulletin was communicated ever since the August race about there being only one standard and automatically authorized tire.  Any other options inquired about are continually evaluated on a case-by-case basis and it was expressed to teams that if an alternate option is approved, a driver will officially be credited at best going forward with the top finishing position in the second half of the field.

 

Lost in some of the post-race drama was a brief anxious moment when the right front of the No. 83 Eibach Springs / SRI Performance / Project Black Cat / DG Motorsports ride driven by Conover, North Carolina’s Dylan Godinez caught on fire due to a brake issue, thus ending his night early upon being extinguished quickly.  Another driver with an early exit from the next race was Yellow Spring, West Virginia’s Larry Frame when a belt malfunction caused him to pull the No. 80x Precision Auto Collision / Nelson Motorsports Chevrolet off the track on the opening lap.

 

Gibson redrew the pole position but elected to start scratch for the second feature, putting top two finishers Ebeling and Payton on the front row.

 

Ebeling took the lead from the get-go with Payton and Nelson’s No. 80 Precision Auto Collision / JEBCO / QH Design / RAM Trucking / Snap-On Tools / Nelson Motorsports Chevrolet battling for second.  Once Payton cleared Nelson, he stayed within a couple car lengths of the seven-time Shenandoah race winner one circuit after another, with both often running nearly identical laps.

 

A yellow flag with 14 laps remaining when Hindt spun in turn three proved to be a game changer.  On the restart, Payton held his outside line and powered ahead on the backstretch, clearing the all-time winningest driver.  Ebeling stayed on his heels, but redemption would be Payton’s as he fended off multiple challenges and was not to be denied for his first series win, becoming the youngest SCSCS winner since 2018.  It was also his first victory at the facility he called home as a teenager, capping off Shenandoah Speedway’s 20th anniversary season.

 

“It’s a great feeling,” the Winston-Salem, North Carolina resident commented.  “Like I said in the track interview, raced here for the better part of 10 years ago for several seasons and the best I ever finished was second.  To finally be able to park it here feels amazing.  It was no easy task.  (Ebeling) certainly gave me a run for my money and made me work for it.  Awesome and clean racing with that guy.”

 

Following Payton and Ebeling to the line were Nelson, Gibson, and Marc Jones in his return to the series for the first time since 2019, tying a best career fifth place effort upon taking over driving duties in the No. 31 3iatlasracing@gmail.com / TheJetDaddy.com / FlyBright Pilot Academy / RNR Tire Express / OSI247.com / Jones Motorsports Ford that was debuted by Brooks, Georgia’s Toby Blanton in the first race.

 

While the action for the top spot was a good one, so was the race for third between Nelson and Gibson during a majority of the distance.  Even so, Gibson took the conservative approach to claim the 2025 Super Cup Stock Car Series title in his first full season, compared to his winning performance from August at Shenandoah.

 

“Our goal was just to come here and run good and we knew we were going to be a little bit off,” the nearby Weyers Cave, Virginia resident noted.  “We just kept fighting the car all day and the last race we actually got to where we could keep up with the top three.  The first race I think they about lapped me.  I think we were about four turns away in the right front spring and we would have been there.  We got really close.”

 

Throughout the season, Gibson never finished worse than fifth and completed every lap of competition except for one race, showing like it has most years that consistency is key.

 

“It was a lot of good guessing I guess you could say, but it was a great season,” Gibson added.  “I have to thank Bill Ashton for a good car.  Without Bill, I wouldn’t have even got here.  It was just a good year.”

 

More content and a full recap will be available over the coming weeks regarding the annual trophy and awards presentation that took place immediately following the evening’s races.

 

While the points have been decided, the 2025 racing season is not over just yet.  A special event at Tri-County Speedway in Hudson, North Carolina takes place on Saturday, November 1st, marking the return of the series to one of its first participating venues for the first time in three years.

 

Further details will soon be found on the Super Cup Stock Car Series official website supercupstockcarseries.com, on Facebook (search Super Cup Stock Car Series), Twitter (@SCSCSRacing), Instagram (SCSCS_Racing), and https://www.youtube.com/SCSCSRacing.

 


 

Gibson Realizes Dream; Officially Awarded with 2025 Championship during SCSCS Annual Trophy Presentation

 

Shenandoah, Virginia (October 16, 2025) – Immediately following the conclusion of the second of twin races at Shenandoah Speedway on October 4th was the annual awards/trophy presentation.  Some competitors for their first time were recognized for a culmination of effort throughout the 2025 Super Cup Stock Car Series regular season while others added to their years of accolades.

 

Mitch Gibson came to the first event in April with only a few starts behind the wheel of a heavy stock car but with a vast amount of knowledge regarding the SCSCS vehicles as a crew member in Pro Cup and NASCAR in the past.  He also earned a Late Model championship a few years prior at the hometown track he grew up attending races.

 

“I guess when I started the year it was probably a dream,” Gibson, who began the season at Kingsport Speedway with a runner-up and what would turn out to be his worst result of the year of fifth, indicated.  I just have to thank all of my family and friends for getting me to where I’ve got.  Of course I’ve had some good sponsors this year – Moyer Brothers, LDW, Superior Welding, 3000channels.com, Jeffrey Salyers EXP, and Trevor’s Life.  It was just an amazing year.”

 

After a rainout during pace laps in May where he claimed his first career Pole Award, Gibson and his fellow competitors returned to Lonesome Pine in June where he picked up his first win.  His second trophy came at the closest track to his current residence in Weyers Cave, Virginia at the end of August at Shenandoah as part of the Veterans Classic.  Gibson had the help at each event from his son Caliph as well as crew chief and spotter Cody Pilkenton to have a 179-point advantage at the checkered flag come October, the biggest margin from first to second since 2009, but there were those beyond with expertise between races that assisted as well.

 

“We were able to keep the car clean all year and we were able to get some wins and several poles,” Gibson recapped.  “I have to thank (former NASCAR Truck Series driver and 2014 Pro Cup champion) Caleb Holman for letting me come and pull the car down at his house.  He’s been on his game for a long time in racing and he’s such a great guy.”

 

Gibson continued regarding the camaraderie built with fellow competitors, which did not necessarily get off on the best foot.

 

“It was fun racing with Brent (Nelson).  I know me and him sort of had our scuffle at Kingsport the first race of the year and then we’ve been like best friends ever since.  That was cool to have that relationship and I loved to see Damian (Payton) win (at Shenandoah).”

 

Brent Nelson switched things up after his long-awaited successful title campaign in 2024 that netted five victories.  The experiments as well as some other bad luck resulted in his first winless season since 2019 and his first year without a single lap led since 2012, leaving the all-time leader in number of laps and races led, top five and top 10 finishes, and hard charger awards pleasantly surprised to still end up second in the standings nonetheless.

 

“We won the championship last year and our mind was set that we were going to bring the new car out that we have been working on for about four or five years now to get ready,” the Petersburg, West Virigina driver noted.  “We took it to Kingsport and, man, we fought gremlins.  It just bit us, but we were determined we were going to try to make that car work and we just kept working at it.  Finally, we got to this point in the season and I said I’ve got to take ‘ol faithful’ back out again.”

 

Nelson was satisfied to wrap up the trips to Shenandoah with a pair of third place performances and will certainly be searching for more in the races ahead to soon get back on the top step.

 

“I’m done playing with the red car and I know what the black car needs and I know what it will do,” the only driver in series history to win five consecutive races added.  “(After Shenandoah) I know the adjustments we have to make and we’ll be there.”

 

Nelson additionally shared similar sentiments for Gibson as the current champion did for him.

 

“To finish second to Mitch, he’s a hard driver and he’s a hard competitor.  He was upset with me, I was upset with him, but at the end of the day we’re racers and we got over it and were all able to move on to the next race and here we are.”

 

Eric Barber decided to call the SCSCS home for 2025 and rounded out the podium points finishers.  Although he was not in attendance for the presentation, the Parkersburg, West Virginia racer shared his thoughts earlier in the race day.

 

“Just to be up there with Brent and being able to see Mitch Gibson win his first championship with Super Cup, I feel pretty good about that,” Barber commented.  “Third in points is not first or second, but it’s a lot better than eighth or 10th, so excited and optimistic and thankful for what we’ve been able to do this year.”

 

The previous year’s rookie of the year Larry Frame from Yellow Spring, West Virginia followed things up with a fourth-place plaque, edging Uniontown Pennsylvania’s Bill Ashton by a mere four points.

 

The second half of the top 10 consisted of most recent first-time race winner Winston-Salem, North Carolina’s Damian Payton, two-time winner at Ona Speedway “ShoTime” Mike from Denver, North Carolina, winningest driver of the year Hickory, North Carolina resident Ben Ebeling, and first-time top 10 points finishers Rob Hindt from Elkton, Maryland with two fifth place finishes and Conover, North Carolina’s Dylan Godinez upon making his series debut closer to the end of the season.

 

Special awards were again handed out, including the “Racing Spirit” award to series PR Coordinator Aaron Creed for exemplifying such in his daily life both on and off the track.  Returning was the Patrick Miller Sportsman of the Year Award, named in honor of the series photographer over a seven-year span who passed away in 2021, given to not only driver Brent Nelson for his second time but also to his brother, crew chief, spotter, and wearer of many hats in assistance throughout the pit area Rocky Nelson.

 

Lastly, upon making his 100th start during the year, Bill Ashton received a special award recognizing the milestone.  In addition, Brent Nelson received a similar accolade for accomplishing the feat in 2022.  Another award was also delivered to Kelly Kromer to commemorate 2019 champion Kevin Kromer, the first driver to reach 100 starts in 2021.

 

The SCSCS has not seen a repeat champion since 2012, and looking ahead to 2026 the chances of that occurring may once again be up in the air at this time.

 

“I have really pondered whether I want to run full-time again or not,” Gibson mentioned, with a few laughs, as he continued.  “It’s time I spend some quality time with my daughter and son.  My son I’ve got him into racing but I think I’m going to keep him on an even feel here and learn that racing costs a lot of money.  I don’t want him to get the disease that I had at a young age so he’s broke when he graduates high school.”

 

“Five years ago I dreamed of winning a Late Model championship and I did it, and then it was like, okay, what’s the next step and so I sort of leaped over this and got my chance at a couple of ARCA races.  I was like let’s go back and take a crack at this, so I called Bill up.  Never met Bill, never talked to Bill and the deal just sort of fell together thanks to some sponsor support and then next thing you know we’re the champ here.  I think I’ve proved I can run a Late Model and I can win in a traveling series.  I’d love to get a chance to maybe run something a little higher up again, but you know what, I’m at the point in life where it’s just about family so I’m happy with that.”

 

Gibson did indicate his confidence as the series peers further into the future.

 

“I know Bill is going to work hard to grow the series over the winter and I invite any racer that wants a budget-friendly racecar, this is the thing to do it right here if you like to travel.  If you don’t want to run the same tracks every week, the Super Cup Stock Car Series is what you want to do for a budget-friendly racecar.”

 

As announced prior, special twin main events will take place at Tri-County Speedway in Hudson, North Carolina on Saturday, November 1st before competitors call it a year.  Anyone interested in inquiring or trying out the series are encouraged to contact series director Bill Ashton at bascscs@gmail.com or 412-582-0423.

 

Further details will continue to be communicated on the Super Cup Stock Car Series official website supercupstockcarseries.com, on Facebook (search Super Cup Stock Car Series), Twitter (@SCSCSRacing), Instagram (SCSCS_Racing), and https://www.youtube.com/SCSCSRacing.


Statesville, North Carolina (October 1, 2025) – A season filled with peaks and valleys, not only geographically, but when it comes to circumstances of the unpredictable nature for both event and series operations as well as competitors leads to Saturday, October 4th.

 

Shenandoah Speedway hosts Twin 35s for the Super Cup Stock Car Series with the first race awarding the second Veterans Classic trophy for 2025, carried over from August 30th.  The second main event will then determine the champion and other positioning within the top 10 in points, which will each be celebrated as part of the post-season awards and trophy presentations immediately following.

 

One driver that has not seen many valleys is point leader going in, Mitch Gibson.  His only time not running at the finish was during the opening weekend at Kingsport Speedway back in April.  Since then, the driver in his first full season with the SCSCS has completed every lap, notching two victories and three poles in the process.  A good run for Gibson to start off the evening could easily clinch the title; however, it would not be surprising to see him go for another win close to his Weyers Cave, Virginia home.

 

Two competitors that are rather eager to end the regular season with a peak are second and third in points.  Brent Nelson was nearly unstoppable in 2024, winning on five occasions including three times at Shenandoah, but mechanical woes have sidelined the Petersburg, West Virginia driver the last two events.  He returns with the “ol’ faithful” black car that won those aforementioned races and a rebuilt motor.

 

Eric Barber had high hopes going into Shenandoah more than a month ago, climbing into the car that won both races at Ona Speedway.  Unfortunately, his race was over before it really got going, but showed promising speed that had him crack the top five at the time his night went sour.  The Parkersburg, West Virginia resident will look to wrap up his first full year in the series on a high note.

 

Meanwhile, there are three more drivers with a chance at being in the top five in the final standings.  Uniontown, Pennsylvania’s Bill Ashton has achieved a top five finish each time in his limited appearances behind the wheel in 2025, including his most recent 100th career start, and ranks second in laps completed.  Larry Frame from Yellow Spring, West Virginia started off the season not on the best foot but has brought his ride to the checkered flag each time in the last three races and is currently sixth in points.

 

Damian Payton has the least mathematical shot at making it in, seventh in the standings at the moment.  Nevertheless, the Winston-Salem, North Carolina’s performances have been noticeable with a runner-up at Lonesome Pine and a third last time out at what was previously his home track of Shenandoah.

 

Then there are those searching to potentially find their way into the final top 10 for the first time.  Rob Hindt from Elkton, Maryland tied his best career finish of fifth, originally set 10 years ago, when the series was at the 3/8-mile progressively banked oval last time.  He will look to match or better that result this time.  Dylan Godinez made his stock car debut on that same weekend and brought the car home in one piece.  The Conover, North Carolina racer has working been hard to improve upon what he has learned since that seventh-place finish.

 

Joining the party are at least a couple first-timers for 2025.  One of them will be the return of Jones Motorsports to the SCSCS for the first time since 2019 with “Jet Daddy” Toby Blanton from Brooks, Georgia making his first start.

 

Spectator gates will open at 3:30 p.m. with qualifying beginning shortly thereafter.  Racing festivities, including the main events for the Super Cup Stock Car Series, are scheduled to start at 5:00 p.m.  Shenandoah Speedway will also be crowning their 2025 champions with twin races for Bandoleros, twins for Legends, and a Stock 4 main event as well as hosting another bike race for kids.

Majeski Takes His Fifth Oktoberfest 200 at La Crosse


 

By: Kevin Ramsell

West Salem, WI - Ty Majeski tied Joe Shear by winning his fifth ASA Midwest Tour Oktoberfest 200 at the La Crosse Fairgrounds Speedway in West Salem, WI.


 

Casey Johnson finished third to claim his fourth ASAMT championship. 


 

Majeski got by Andrew Morrissey on lap 144 and pulled away to the checkered flag. 


 

This is his fifth Oktoberfest victory in the last nine years after he picked up his first victory in 2016.


 

“I guess it just means I'm getting old,” Majeski said with a smile. “Been doing this a while, and been blessed to do this a long time with a lot of great people and a lot of great race cars, and these are results. So just thankful to be in the position. I get to drive great trucks and great race cars every time I hit the racetrack and it’s truly a blessing and very thankful.”


 

Morrissey finished second after leading a good portion of the race. He was hoping to end his Oktoberfest weekend with another big victory after winning the Dick Trickle 99 on Friday night. 


 

“No, it was a good weekend,” Morrissey said. “Yeah, just got a little too tight. Every race here we get really loose in the race and just tighten it up too much. We thought we freed it up enough at the break, and just wasn't enough, just kept getting tight, and just needed a little more, and they (Majeski) were that much better.”


 

Johnson claimed his fourth title with his third-place finish. He came into the season finale only four points behind defending two-time champion Gabe Sommers. 


 

Sommers struggled and finished ninth, allowing Johnson to win the title by eight points. 


 

“So, the goal was to get into third, so I raced Ryan Farrell for the spot, actually, once I got to him, let me go, and I can't thank him enough for that,” Johnson recalled. “And then I honestly think I could have paced with Andrew a little bit. I don't know what Ty was turning, but today wasn't one of those days where you race hard.”


 

Michael Hinde finished fourth, with Penn Sauter finishing fifth.


 

Sauter, who was the fast qualifier, took the “Ultimate Challenge” and was looking at a $40,000 bonus from starting in the rear and getting the victory, but came up four spots short.


 

Ty Fredrickson, who was an early leader, had a scary crash on lap 131 as something broke in his car, sending him sailing hard into the turn three wall. He was able to walk away from the crash. 


 

Majeski, who had a busy week traveling from the fest down to Charlotte to finish eighth in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race, then coming back to Oktoberfest, credited his team for his victory. 


 

“One of our best tracks, and just it all goes back to those guys,” Majeski said in victory lane. “They work really hard on these things week in and week out while I'm living my dream racing in NASCAR, and it's so much fun running with these guys that really made my career.”
