Dominic Scelzi Rides Consistency to Top-10 Finishes Along West Coast

Inside Line Promotions – BILLINGS, Mont. (July 13, 2026) – Dominic Scelzi was a consistent top-10 car throughout the month of June, which showcased races in California, Oregon, Washington and Montana.

“We’ve been racing really well and passing cars this summer, but haven’t been timing in well,” he said. “When you have to start in the back, it’s getting more and more difficult to drive through the field.”

Following a 10th-place result on June 6 at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, Calif., Scelzi recorded five straight top-seven finishes in five days during the Fastest 5 Days with the NARC King of the West Sprint Car Series. He advanced to seventh on June 11 at Southern Oregon Speedway in White City, Ore.; on June 12 at Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg, Ore.; and on June 14 at Grays Harbor Raceway in Elma, Wash.

Scelzi highlighted the speedweek with fifth-place finishes on June 13 at Cottage Grove Speedway in Cottage Grove, Ore., and on June 15 at Grays Harbor Raceway, where he rallied from the 17th starting position.

“We have a maneuverable race car, but needed to start further up front,” he said. “We are maneuverable, but have been struggling to find speed. That was the story line from June.”

Scelzi ventured to Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Wash., for the 54th annual Jim Raper Memorial Super Dirt Cup. After ending in the B Main during the opening night (on June 18), Scelzi charged from 21st to a sixth-place showing the ensuing evening. He then locked into the main event via a heat race during the final night, when he placed 14th out of the more than 50 competitors who entered the event.

“I think our highlight was going 21st to sixth on the Friday with such a stout field,” he said. “We had a really good shot at continuing to drive through the field with more laps. That was a lot of fun.”

The long month of traveling wrapped up on June 26 at Big Sky Speedway, which hosted Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing. Scelzi progressed throughout the night to garner a 15th-place result, marking his 18th top 15 in 21 starts this season. The event finale rained out the next night.

“Going out last in qualifying hurt us and without the speed in the car, we went a lap down early in the feature,” he said. “We passed a lot of cars even after we were a lap down, but once that happens you’re not picking up the positions.”

Scelzi plans to return to NARC King of the West Sprint Car Series competition this Friday and Saturday at Watsonville Speedway in Watsonville, Calif., during the Howard Kaeding Classic.

“I’m looking forward to going back to Watsonville, where we won to start the season,” he said.

Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Post Trio of Podiums to Open Busy Month

Inside Line Promotions – WILMOT, Wis. (July 13, 2026) – David Gravel produced a trio of podium finishes last weekend to increase Big Game Motorsports’ lead in the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series championship standings to 92 points.

Gravel finished third on Thursday at Hartford Speedway in Hartford, Mich., before running second and third, respectively, on Friday and Saturday at Wilmot Raceway. That gives the team 20 podiums and 26 top-five finishes in 38 starts this season.

“It was a solid weekend,” he said. “We qualified well each night and got ourselves in the dashes. We had to overcome some bad dash draws, but to get three podiums, it was a solid weekend.”

Gravel set quick time in qualifying and won a heat race before placing third in both the dash and the main event at Hartford Speedway.

“I was just hanging around there,” he said. “We fell back a couple of spots and at the end the car got better. We were good enough to maintain.”

On Friday at Wilmot Raceway, Gravel timed in second quickest. He won a heat race before pulling the highest number – eight – in the dash draw. Gravel gained a spot in the dash and hustled from seventh to second place in the main event.

“Those guys were hanging on at the end and our car got better throughout the feature on Friday,” he said. “I was able to make lanes work that other people couldn’t. We were coming at the end. I wish it was a 40-lap race.”

The weekend wrapped up on Saturday with Gravel qualifying third quickest and finishing second in a heat race. He moved from sixth to fourth place in the dash and gained a spot in the feature to end third.

“I had a front row seat to Sheldon (Haudenschild) and Garet (Williamson) battling,” he said. “Those guys were fast. I could keep them at arm’s length, but I wasn’t close enough to challenge. I made some contact with (Spencer) Bayston that messed up our car so that didn’t help, but we came out of there with another podium.”

This week is a busy one for the team with five straight nights of racing in Ohio. It begins on Tuesday at Attica Raceway Park in Attica for the Ohio Logistics Brad Doty Classic presented by DAC Vitamins and Minerals. The team will then race four nights in a row at Eldora Speedway near Rossburg with the $100,000-to-win Jokers Jackpot highlighting Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing races on Wednesday and Thursday followed by the $200,000-to-win Kings Royal highlighting a World of Outlaws doubleheader at the track on Friday and Saturday.

“I expect to be competitive each night,” Gravel said. “We do this for the big events so I’m hoping we can have some success at the Joker’s Jackpot and the Kings Royal. I’m looking forward to the challenge.”

Dover Eager for Three-Race King of the Wings Weekend With MSTS

Inside Line Promotions – KNOXVILLE, Iowa (July 13, 2026) – Jack Dover is tackling a Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series tripleheader in Minnesota and North Dakota this weekend.

The Tim Estenson Motorsports driver will venture to Norman County Raceway in Ada, Minn., on Thursday; to River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, N.D., on Friday; and to Buffalo River Speedway in Glyndon, Minn., on Saturday.

“Not to sound cocky, but I expect to win,” he said. “That’s how good I feel in the car. We’re rolling really well right now.”

Dover finished third at Norman County Raceway, 12th at River Cities Speedway (during a World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series show) and second at Buffalo River Speedway last season.

“Last year was my first time at all three tracks,” he said. “I think those tracks suit my style. I’m very excited. Now that we’ve been to all three places, we aren’t rolling into them green. Plus, I feel like we’re running a lot better right now than we were last year.”

Dover enters the weekend riding a four-race podium streak with MSTS, including winning his last two races. He currently leads the MSTS championship standings by 15 points.

Additionally, the three races this weekend are also the final three in the six-race Buffalo Wild Wings King of the Wings. Dover leads the King of the Wings championship standings by 12 points. He is the defending King of the Wings champion.

Dover raced last Saturday at Knoxville Raceway, where he ended the night in the B Main, narrowly missing a transfer into the main event.

“We were decent when we rolled in and got better each time we hit the track, but it wasn’t good enough,” he said. “We learned some stuff and tried some stuff so it was worth the trip.”

QUICK RESULTS –

July 11 – Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa – Qualifying: 14; Heat race: 7 (7); B Main: 6 (8). 

SEASON STATS –

6 races, 2 wins, 4 top fives, 4 top 10s, 4 top 15s, 4 top 20s

Starks Scores Third Skagit Speedway Victory in a Row and 20th Career 410 Triumph at Track

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (July 13, 2026) – Trey Starks racked up his third consecutive feature triumph at Skagit Speedway last Saturday.

“It started off good with going quick time,” he said. “I laid down a couple of good laps. In the heat race, we started fourth and ran fourth. I searched around a bit. That left it up to the feature redraw and we got a solid draw with the outside front row.

“I knew I had to be on it on the start. We fired off and I didn’t get the lead right away as the outside lane wasn’t getting the best starts. I pointed it to the top and was able to get the lead down the backstretch. It was right on the fence. I knew I had to be watching if the bottom was coming in. I had to run the top hard, but keep the car out of the wall. We had a couple of restarts in the second half of the race. The way the track was, I had to be calculated about how I did the restarts because the top was so high around the track that I didn’t want anyone behind me to get a good enough run to slide me. But I didn’t want to protect because I figured I’d get slid on the other end. I tried to restart really late in the zone. It ended up working out and we brought it home for the win.”

Starks now holds a 21-point lead in the 410ci winged sprint car championship standings following his 20th career victory in the division at Skagit Speedway.

“It was another good weekend,” he said. “We’re making improvements every week with the 410 car. Also, it was a really good track. I hope that’s what we get for the 360 Nationals in a couple of weeks.”

Starks will head to Watsonville Speedway in Watsonville, Calif., this Friday and Saturday for the Howard Kaeding Classic with the NARC King of the West Sprint Car Series. He will pilot a sprint car for Chase Johnson Racing during the doubleheader.

“We’ve run one night there, but it was 13 or 14 years ago,” Starks said. “I’m looking forward to it. I’ve been to Watsonville within the last couple of years to watch. It’s a good, fun track and Chase has really good equipment. I think it’ll be a good opportunity and a fun trip to race at the Howard Kaeding Classic.”

July 11 – Skagit Speedway in Burlington, Wash. – Qualifying: 1; Heat race: 4 (4); Feature: 1 (2).

20 races, 9 wins, 16 top fives, 17 top 10s, 18 top 15s, 18 top 20s
