Big Game Motorsports and Gravel Record Second-Place Result at River Cities Speedway

Inside Line Promotions – GRAND FORKS, N.D. (June 2, 2026) – David Gravel guided Big Game Motorsports to a runner-up result last Friday done the lone World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series race of the weekend.

Gravel was efficient all night, setting quick time during qualifying before placing second in a heat race, the dash and the main event for his 14th podium performance of the season.

“It was a great night overall,” he said. “We had a car capable of winning and we led a lot of laps, but we just came up a little short. I got a little complacent in traffic. It’s such an aggressive track and it requires you to be on kill every single lap. I passed the same lapped car three times and he passed me back three times. That really slowed down my pace and was the defining moment for me.

“I was bummed I didn’t win. You want to win these races. They’re hard to win. But it was a good night for our team. As long as we have chances to win races, it’s hard to complain.”

Sunday’s event at Nodak Speedway in Minot, N.D., rained out.

Gravel currently leads the World of Outlaws championship standings by 114 points.

This weekend features a tripleheader with races on Friday at Hartford Speedway in Hartford, Mich., for the Pure Michigan Showdown; on Saturday at Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis., for the Cheese Town Showdown; and on Sunday at Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wis., for the Ted Johnson Memorial Race.

“We haven’t been to Hartford in a long time,” said Gravel, who was victorious at the track in 2017 and in 2019 during the two most recent World of Outlaws races. “Obviously it’s a track that’s been good to me, but it’s been a long time since we’ve raced there.”

Gravel finished 22nd at Plymouth Dirt Track last year.

“I’m looking for some redemption at Plymouth,” he said. “We didn’t qualify the greatest and DNFed in the feature so hopefully we can have a good rebound.”

Gravel set a new track record and placed third in the feature last year at Angell Park Speedway.

“The last time we were there it was late in the year and it was cold,” he said. “I believe we broke the track record and had a great car until the feature when we just kind of missed it a little bit.”

Also of note, Gravel has advanced into the World of Outlaws dash 21 times through the first 25 races this season. He has an average dash draw (counting the shows that only have a six-car dash) of 4.76. Gravel has drawn the front row four times and has drawn the last row seven times. The number he has pulled the most is a tie between the No. 3 and No. 8 – four times each. He’s drawn the No. 6 three times and every other number twice.

May 29 – River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, N.D. – Qualifying: 1; Heat race: 2 (1); Dash: 2 (2); Feature: 2 (2).

Dover Venturing to Huset’s Speedway and Eagle Raceway

Inside Line Promotions – SPRINGFIELD, Neb. (June 2, 2026) – Jack Dover is heading to a pair of elbows-up tracks during the next week.

After Mother Nature rained out a Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series show last weekend – the fourth straight rainout to start the year for the Tim Estenson Motorsports driver – Dover looks forward to opening his season with a trip to Huset’s Speedway in Brandon, S.D., this Sunday.

“We’ve had an unfortunate start to the season with all the rainouts so hopefully that ends soon and we can make some laps,” he said. “I enjoy racing at Huset’s and have competed there a good amount the last few years so I’m looking forward to Sunday.”

Dover has placed inside the top six in the Huset’s Speedway championship standings each time he’s competed full time at the track. He was fifth last year, sixth in 2022 and fourth in 2021.

Following the Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series event on Sunday at Huset’s Speedway, Dover ventures to the track closest to his shop – Eagle Raceway in Eagle, Neb. – on Tuesday for an Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing event.

“I’m always excited to race close to home in front of family and friends,” he said. “We haven’t been able to race at Eagle a lot during the last few years, but it’s a track where I cut my teeth in my early days of racing. Just like Huset’s, it’s an aggressive track where you have to be up on the wheel every lap.”

Estenson Preparing for Two Nights With High Limit Racing This Weekend

Inside Line Promotions – SPRINGFIELD, Neb. (June 1, 2026) – Tim Estenson will now make his season debut this weekend when he tackles a pair of Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing shows.

Fresh off a rainout last weekend, the Tim Estenson Motorsports driver heads to I-94 Speedway in Fergus Falls, Minn., on Friday before venturing to Dacotah Speedway in Mandan, N.D., on Saturday.

“I’m looking forward to the weekend as I like both tracks,” he said. “You’re getting thrown in with the wolves with our first races being with High Limit. I think the biggest deal is to try to complete every lap and try to get comfortable as quickly as I can.”

Estenson made his debut at I-94 Speedway in July 2023.

“We struggled at the beginning of the night, but come feature-time we started 20th and charged to first before we had a tire go down,” he said. “So we had speed there. We just had an unfortunate situation with a flat tire toward the end of the race.”

Estenson is more familiar with Dacotah Speedway, last competing at the track in July 2021 when he recorded results of seventh and sixth, respectively.

“I raced there with NOSA in 2021 and I think I ended up with a couple of top 10s,” he said. “I’ve been there a bunch of times in legends cars so I’m familiar with the track, but it’ll my first race in a while so we’ll see how it plays out.”

Starks Pushes Top-Five Streak to 10 Consecutive After Two More at Skagit Speedway

Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Wash. (June 1, 2026) – Trey Starks produced a pair of top fives last Saturday at Skagit Speedway to push his top-five streak to 10 in a row to start the season.

Starks set quick time in both the 410ci winged sprint car and 360ci winged sprint car divisions. He placed third in the 410 heat race and second in the 360 heat race to make the feature redraw. Unfortunately, he drew the largest number – six – both times. That marked the fifth straight race and seventh time in his last eight races at Skagit Speedway that Starks has started the feature on the third row.

“We’ve just been getting killed by the draw,” he said. “No excuses, but it’s really, really difficult with how good the cars are that end up in the top six every night. You can’t try to beat them from sixth every night. Every time we have to start from that third row we spend all race trying to get to the top three and by the time we get there the race is over. It’s the luck of the draw and nothing we can do about it, but it’s tough to do it from back there with that caliber of cars in front of you.”

Starks powered from sixth to second place in the 410 main event.

“We got to fourth fairly quickly and then got a couple restarts that we needed,” he said. “We had a restart around midway and I got into third. We had another restart a few laps later and I got into second. I set my sights on chasing down the leader and waiting to get into traffic. We got close while he was fighting through traffic, but I ran out of laps.”

The strong night moved him into the lead in the 410 championship standings by 18 points.

Starks advanced from sixth to fourth place in the 360 main event.

“It took three starts and an open red before we got a lap in,” he said. “On the one start that went through, we only got into fifth. I passed for fourth about four laps in. After that, the race went green the rest of the way, which is not what we needed. The track was pretty fast around the top so it was get in line and see if guys would make mistakes. They didn’t so we didn’t have much opportunity to move forward.”

Starks holds a 44-point advantage in the 360 championship standings.

He will return to Skagit Speedway this Saturday for a 410 race.

“Shugah” Shane Sexton Gets Third Overall in Two-Night Race for Heroes at Barona – Jumps to Second in SCLS Championship Point Standings

 

Warner Springs, California — May 28, 2026 — Popular “Shugah” Shane Sexton parlayed fifth and seventh-place finishes into a third-place overall result during the two-night SoCal Lightning Sprint Car Series Race for Heroes at Barona Speedway on Memorial Day Weekend. The finishes allowed the friendly driver to jump up to second in the SCLS championship standings as the series closes in on the halfway point of the 2026 season.


 

 

Night #1 saw 14 Lightning Sprints show up for action on the San Diego County quarter-mile oval. With no qualifying in the SCLS, drivers draw pills to determine their starting positions for heat races. Sexton pulled a five for his heat, and on a track where passing came at a premium, he finished in the same spot. For the main event, the eye-catching purple #74 started on the inside of the fifth row in ninth and steered his way forward to a fifth-place finish in the 20-lapper.

 

Twenty-four hours later, Sexton started and finished third in his heat race. He followed that up by starting eighth and finishing seventh in the main event.


 

 

“Well, third overall in the mini championship this weekend with a fifth and a seventh in the mains,” Sexton said in an update to his Facebook followers. “It was a tough weekend and messed up both times in the beginning of each main and was able to rally back each night. Made some money and had some fun, so overall a good weekend!! Thank you Black Widow Diesel, Site One Green Tech, Reel Technologies, AG Sandcars, Toby Ramos Tires, Allied American, Savage Racing, and Hose & Rubber Products (HRP).”

 

In five starts with the SCLS in 2026, Sexton’s seventh-place finish in the most recent race was his lowest result of the season. In addition, the 23-year-old has recorded a fourth-place finish, two fifth-place results, and a sixth. His consistent performances have propelled him to second place in the SCLS championship standings following the doubleheader weekend.

 

Sexton will enjoy three straight Saturdays away from the track. He will return to his office in the cockpit of the #74 on June 20th at Barona Speedway for the first SCLS wingless sprint car race of the 2026 campaign.

Sexton would like to thank the following marketing partners for their support of his 2026 racing efforts: Black Widow Diesel, Site One Green Tech, Reel Technologies, AG Sandcars, Toby Ramos Tires, Allied American, Savage Racing, and Hose & Rubber Products (HRP).
