MOWA Sprints Headline Friday Night’s “Night Before The Mile” at Lincoln Speedway

Five-Division Program Kicks Off Huge Illinois State Fair Racing Weekend

LINCOLN, IL – August 19, 2026 – One of Central Illinois’ biggest racing weekends of the summer gets underway this Friday night, August 21, at Lincoln Speedway, as the Morrow Brothers Ford MOWA Sprint Car Series headlines the annual “Night Before The Mile.” The winged 410 Sprint Cars will be joined by DIRTcar Pro Late Models, Taco Bell DIRTcar Modifieds, MARA Midgets, and Crown Vics for a five-division program on the high-banked 1/4-mile dirt oval.

Friday’s event has become a popular kickoff to Illinois State Fair Racing Weekend, which continues Saturday and Sunday on the historic Springfield Mile at the Illinois State Fairgrounds. Before the big cars of USAC Silver Crown and the stock cars of the ARCA Menards Series take center stage in Springfield, race fans will get a completely different kind of show Friday night as the powerful MOWA Sprint Cars tackle the confines of “Abe’s Favorite Place to Race.”

MOWA Championship Battle Comes To Lincoln

Friday marks the 23rd appearance for the MOWA Sprint Car Series at Lincoln Speedway, and the championship battle couldn’t be much tighter.

Jake Neuman enters the weekend with 416 points, holding a slim 12-point advantage over Paul Nienhiser, who sits second with 404. Two-time and defending series champion Will Armitage is third with 359, followed by Zach Daum with 352 and Kevin Newton with 302.

Nienhiser will certainly be one to watch Friday night. Earlier this season, he collected his seventh career MOWA victory at Lincoln Speedway, making him the winningest MOWA driver in track history. Nienhiser has more than twice as many Lincoln MOWA victories as his nearest challenger, Rico Abreu, who has three.

Defending Night Before The Mile winner Tyler Duff of Weldon, IL, will also be back. Duff scored his first career MOWA Sprint Car victory in this event last August and will look to make it two straight. Armitage has also been knocking on the door at Lincoln, finishing second in three of his last five appearances at the track.

The list of previous MOWA winners at Lincoln is impressive. In addition to Nienhiser and Abreu, drivers who have visited victory lane include Christopher Bell, Carson Macedo, Ian Madsen, Scotty Thiel, Jake Neuman, AJ Bruns, Willie Croft, Riley Goodno, Jerrod Hull, Jimmy Hurley, and Korey Weyant, among others.

Pro Late Model Championship Takes A Turn

The DIRTcar Pro Late Models enter Friday night with plenty of intrigue surrounding the championship battle. Lincoln’s Michael Maestas currently holds a 10-point advantage over fellow Lincoln driver Tristan Coleman, but the complexion of the title chase could change dramatically Friday.

Maestas suffered an engine failure last weekend at Spoon River Speedway before his car sustained additional damage in the aftermath with oncoming traffic. His status puts the championship lead in jeopardy heading into Friday’s event.

Behind Maestas and Coleman are Erik Vanapeldoorn, Brandon Sweitzer, and Braden Johnson, making the closing stretch of the season increasingly important for the Pro Late Model competitors.

Brian Lynn Leads Taco Bell Modifieds

In the Taco Bell DIRTcar Modified division, multi-time champion Brian Lynn of Mason City, IL, is putting together another strong season. Lynn carries a 36-point advantage over Brandon Roberts into Friday night.

Austin Lynn, Brian Diveley, and Carter Sinkhorn complete the top five in the standings as the Modified competitors prepare for another battle on the Lincoln high banks.

Hall On Top Of Crown Vic Standings

The Crown Vics have continued to provide competitive racing throughout the season, with Peoria Heights, IL driver Jeff Hall leading the championship standings.

Hall currently holds a 34-point advantage over Austin Charron, while Tom Eskew, Aidan Crowell, and Justin Miller round out the top five.

MARA Midgets Join Friday Night Program

Completing the five-division card will be the MARA Midget Series, bringing another form of open-wheel racing to Friday’s program.

Two Springfield drivers currently sit atop the yearlong MARA standings. Tyler Roth leads Daltyn England by 80 points, while Jacob Sollenberger, Mark Chisholm, and Zach Boden complete the top five.

With both MOWA Sprint Cars and MARA Midgets on the card, open-wheel fans will have plenty to watch before the USAC Silver Crown cars take over the Springfield Mile the following afternoon.

Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway Standouts Ready to Tackle "The Madhouse" at the Kyle Busch Invitational

Nashville, TN — Short-track racing takes center stage this Friday, August 21st, at the historic Bowman Gray Stadium as it will host the inaugural Kyle Busch Invitational. Benefiting the Samantha and Kyle Busch Bundle of Joy Fund, the invitation only event brings together top INEX talent across the Legends and Bandolero divisions on one of the most famous quarter-mile ovals in motorsports.

Among the elite entry list are several top contenders who have spent the 2026 season dominating the quarter-mile at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway, bringing championship caliber Music City momentum into North Carolina.

🏎️ Legends Division: Championship Leaders & Track Veterans

With up to 51 Legend Cars vying for a spot in the main event, qualifying and heat races will be relentless. Keep a close eye on this trio of Nashville proven contenders battling for national glory:

  • Dylan Faulkner (#60): Faulkner enters the event sitting at the top of the 2026 Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway Legends points standings. The point leader has showcased consistency all summer in the Music City, navigating dense fields and high-pressure restarts to hold down the top spot. That poise will be his biggest asset on Bowman Gray’s unforgiving flat corners.

  • Landon Thrasher (#55): A dual-threat driver having a career-defining 2026 season, Thrasher sits tied for second overall in Nashville’s Legends points while commanding the Young Lions division lead. Fresh off an impressive runner-up performance during the INEX Spring Nationals at Nashville in April and a dominating run at Charlotte’s Summer Shootout, Thrasher is one of the most dangerous young talents in the field.

  • Kevin Rollins (#93): The defending INEX Masters Asphalt National Champion is no stranger to victory lane in Nashville. Rollins kicked off his 2026 campaign by capturing another Masters Division victory at the Nashville Spring Nationals, adding to his multi-time Spring Nationals titles on the Music City quarter-mile. His hard-nosed driving style and veteran instincts are tailor-made for the physical, bumper-to-bumper environment of "The Madhouse."

🏁 Bandolero Division: Nashville’s Fastest Young Stars

The Bandolero feature promises relentless action as two of Nashville’s premier youth racers step onto the national stage:

  • Lucas Harrison (#1): Hailing from Columbia, TN, Harrison has been virtually unstoppable on the Nashville quarter-mile this season. He set the tone early in 2026 with a dominant, undefeated multi-win sweep during the INEX Spring Nationals at Nashville, and most recently topped the charts as the fastest qualifier at the Speedway’s August 8th event. Carrying that raw speed into Bowman Gray makes the #1 car is an immediate threat for the win.

  • Jordan Bauer (#4.5): A consistent frontrunner in Nashville’s Bandolero ranks, Bauer brings smooth throttle control and fierce restart instincts to North Carolina. Navigating traffic on Bowman Gray's tight layout requires fast decision-making, and Bauer's experience battling in Music City’s crowded fields gives the #4.5 team a strong edge to push for a podium finish.

📺 How to Watch

  • Event Date: Friday, August 21, 2026

  • Location: Bowman Gray Stadium (Winston-Salem, NC)

  • Live Stream: Fans unable to attend in person can stream the entire event live on FloRacing.

Bryson Leads Ladies’ Charge at Springfield Mile on Saturday

August 17, 2026

(Springfield, IL) More history might be made this weekend at the Illinois State Fairgrounds’ “Springfield Mile” than in the previous 98-year existence of the current mile dirt oval. Never has a female racing driver won a major event on the oldest and fastest one-mile dirt track in the world, but this weekend at least two may have a chance to break that streak and could potentially sweep the weekend.

Oklahoma’s Kaylee Bryson wasn’t born yet when Jud Larson and Jimmy Bryan were moving Illinois clay in the 1950s, and she never saw A.J. Foyt or Mario Andretti wheel a championship dirt car, except on film. Yet her “girl next door” aura belies the pilot who emerges once she puts on the helmet and straps into one of the big cars. She is the only female winner of a USAC Silver Crown race, capturing a 50-lapper on the high banks at Belleville, Kansas. And, in 2022, she demonstrated that the high groove is still the fast way around the Springfield Mile.

When the 2022 Bettenhausen was rained out in August and rescheduled to October, cooler temperatures greeted the USAC teams and drivers, as did a fast track. Driving for Aaron Pierce, the Springfield rookie qualified second fastest and shocked the crowd by jumping to the lead ahead of polesitter Justin Grant. Bryson began riding the cushion and kicking rooster tails of dirt over the outside wall, displaying a driving style not seen in years at Springfield.

However, by lap 20, railbirds began to notice the blue and white No. 26 was off song. One remarked that the engine had dropped a cylinder and it wouldn’t last long. How wrong they were. C.J. Leary took the lead briefly on lap 23, but Bryson rode the high side back to the lead on lap 24. Leary would lead again on lap 35, but again Bryson kept the momentum up and took the lead back. She would lead until a lap 75 restart when Shane Cockrum rode the inner rail and took the top spot. Bryson tried to fight back but lost spots and eventually nursed the car home to fifth. The 72 laps led were the first ever for a woman driver in the Bettenhausen 100.

Kaylee drives for a new team, Abacus-Droplight, in 2026, carrying the No. 11 used by legend George Snider. As long as her car stays healthy, she will have a good shot at winning the Bettenhausen against the boys on Saturday, while ARCA’s Isabella Robusto has a good chance of making some history of her own in Sunday’s ARCA Calypso Lemonade 100.

Practice for the Silver Crown Series is slated for 10:00 AM, with pole qualifying at 11:30 AM and the 100-mile finale at 2:00 PM. The 63rd Running of the Bettenhausen 100 Presented by Hunt Brothers Pizza will once again feature the best of the best in the historic dirt championship cars competing on one of the most iconic dirt tracks in America. The program also includes heat races for the 33rd Annual Illinois Sportsman Nationals, making it one of the premier racing weekends of the summer. The ARCA Menards Series competes Sunday, August 23.

Reserved seating, advance tickets, and additional event information are available by calling Track Enterprises at (217) 764-3200 or by visiting TrackEnterprises.com. Fans can Save Big Money at Menards by purchasing discounted advance-sale general admission tickets for Sunday’s ARCA Menards Series event at participating Menards locations throughout Central Illinois.

 


 

Kovski Returns For Springfield ARCA Quest

August 16, 2026

(Springfield, IL) Springfield’s Kelly Kovski keeps coming back to the historic Springfield Mile in search of a full taste of victory lane at the Illinois State Fairgrounds. Sunday’s Calypso Lemonade-Allen Crowe 100 will be the 20th start on the hometown mile dirt track for the graduate of Springfield’s Sacred Heart-Griffin High School. Kovski, who manages Allgaier Performance, got to victory lane as a crew chief in 2017 with good friend Grant Enfinger. At the time, Kovski was recovering from serious injuries sustained in a Florida pit accident but has since recovered well enough to run at the front in ARCA competition.

Kovski is looking to make start number 20 on the Springfield Mile, good enough for 10th all-time among the 733 drivers who have run a 100-mile stock car race at the Illinois State Fair. Kovski is tied for fourth all-time with 13 top-10 finishes, and his 1,872 miles completed at Springfield put him third all-time behind legends Frank Kimmel and Don White. Despite the impressive stats, Kovski has yet to break into victory lane as a driver, something he desperately wants to accomplish.

Others from the area have proven that it can be done by one of the locals. Justin Allgaier’s 2006 win nearly blew the roof off the Illinois State Fair grandstand, while Ryan Unzicker’s COVID-delayed run in 2020 capped a nearly 50-year quest for car owner Bill Hendren. If Kovski can pull off the victory, it would be the third in the last two decades for a driver from Central Illinois.

Last year, Kovski had to start 21st after qualifying was washed out by rain. It was the fifth time he started 20th or deeper in the event. By the end, he had moved all the way to third behind eventual winner Brent Crews and Lavar Scott. Kovski has a knack for coming to the front at Springfield. In 2007, he went from 29th to sixth; in 2014, 27th to sixth; and in 2015, 30th to third. Kelly has dropped out of just two of his 19 races at Springfield.

The 64th Calypso Lemonade-Allen Crowe 100 takes place Sunday, August 23, at the Illinois State Fair. Practice is slated for 10:00 AM, with pole qualifying at 11:15 AM and the 100-mile finale at 1:00 PM. The event will once again feature many of the nation’s top young stock car drivers competing on one of the most iconic dirt tracks in America. The program also includes the championship feature for the 33rd Annual Illinois Sportsman Nationals, making it one of the premier racing weekends of the summer. The USAC Silver Crown Series competes the day before in the Bettenhausen 100.

Fans can Save Big Money at Menards by purchasing discounted advance-sale general admission tickets for the ARCA Menards Series event at participating Menards locations throughout Central Illinois. Reserved seating, advance tickets, and additional event information are available by calling Track Enterprises at (217) 764-3200 or by visiting TrackEnterprises.com.

 


 

Grant Hunting for Third Bettenhausen

August 17, 2026

(Springfield, IL) Ione, California’s Justin Grant came into the 2026 USAC Silver Crown season with two Silver Crown championships and nine series victories. Of those nine wins, three have come on the dirt miles of Illinois, with two at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in 2017 and 2024. Grant enters the 2026 Bettenhausen 100 with no wins to date this season and second in the point standings behind leader C.J. Leary.

Grant entered the 2017 Bettenhausen seventh in the points and in search of his first series win. While he had already made his mark in USAC Sprint Cars and Midgets, victory lane in the big cars had eluded him. He qualified second quick to Jerry Coons Jr. and jumped to the lead, only to be overtaken by wily veteran Brian Tyler on the 36th go-around. Tyler pulled away while Grant bided his time, watching the condition of Tyler’s right-rear tire while trying to save his own rear tires.

On a lap 57 restart, following a red flag for Zach Daum’s flip, Grant went for broke on the outside of Tyler and took the lead. But the remaining 43 laps weren’t easy. Series star Kody Swanson and veteran Jeff Swindell were lurking behind, as was Tyler. Swanson eventually moved to second and pressured Grant, while Swindell briefly moved into second with 17 to go. Grant, however, was able to remain in the top spot and race to his first-ever Silver Crown championship car victory. Grant joined A.J. Foyt, Larry Rice, Gary Bettenhausen, Bobby Olivero, and Cole Whitt as drivers who earned their first Silver Crown Series victory in the Bettenhausen.

Grant came to Springfield in 2024 second in points to Kody Swanson. He set fast time in qualifying and then became the 18th winner to lead all 100 miles and the 20th race winner to start from the pole. Grant also owns a record four pole positions on the Springfield Mile.

Even with the two victories, his grittiest Springfield performance may have come last year in oppressive heat and humidity. Nursing a broken left foot from a previous crash, Grant qualified his Hemelgarn entry ninth. As the race-time temperature climbed to 95 degrees with brutal humidity, drivers and machines were pushed to their limits. Grant drove a steady race and finished fourth, completing all 100 miles. Not a bad day considering he entered and exited the car using crutches.

Justin Grant will be one of the heavy favorites Saturday, August 22, at the Illinois State Fairgrounds. Practice for the Silver Crown Series is slated for 10:00 AM, with pole qualifying at 11:30 AM and the 100-mile finale at 2:00 PM.

The 63rd Running of the Bettenhausen 100 Presented by Hunt Brothers Pizza will once again feature the best of the best in the historic dirt championship cars competing on one of the most iconic dirt tracks in America. The program also includes heat races for the 33rd Annual Illinois Sportsman Nationals, making it one of the premier racing weekends of the summer. The ARCA Menards Series competes Sunday, August 23, in the 64th Annual Calypso Lemonade 100.

Reserved seating, advance tickets, and additional event information are available by calling Track Enterprises at (217) 764-3200 or by visiting TrackEnterprises.com. Fans can Save Big Money at Menards by purchasing discounted advance-sale general admission tickets for Sunday’s ARCA Menards Series event at participating Menards locations throughout Central Illinois.

 

ONE WEEK AWAY: Leary Leads Silver Crown Series to Bettenhausen 100 at Springfield

SPRINGFIELD, IL – Just one week remains until the big cars of the USAC Silver Crown Championship return to one of their most historic venues, as Greenfield, Indiana’s C.J. Leary leads the series to the Springfield Mile for the 63rd Running of the Bettenhausen 100 Presented by Hunt Brothers Pizza on Saturday, August 22, at the Illinois State Fairgrounds.

Leary enters Springfield following a victory in the series’ most recent event on the pavement at Iowa Speedway, his second win of the 2026 season. He leads the Silver Crown championship standings by 45 points over two-time and defending national champion Justin Grant.

The championship picture could change considerably over the next few weeks as the series turns its attention to the traditional dirt miles at Springfield and DuQuoin. Much of the schedule to this point has been contested on pavement, while the historic dirt-mile events traditionally attract additional competitors and present an entirely different challenge for the championship contenders.

Leary finally broke through for his first victory on one of the dirt miles last season, winning the Ted Horn 100 at DuQuoin. His two victories this season have come at Iowa Speedway and on the big oval at World Wide Technology Raceway near St. Louis. His seven career Silver Crown victories have him tied for 18th on the series’ all-time win list, but two accomplishments remain on his wish list — a Silver Crown championship and a Bettenhausen 100 trophy.

In seven previous attempts on the Springfield Mile, Leary’s best finish came last year when he finished fifth on one of the hottest race days in recent memory. The victory went to Kody Swanson, who has since moved from the cockpit into the USAC Silver Crown Series director position.

Among those looking to keep Leary from adding Springfield to his résumé is Grant, who already knows his way to Bettenhausen victory lane. Grant is a two-time winner of the prestigious event, taking the checkered flag in 2017 and again in 2024. Now chasing Leary for another Silver Crown championship, Grant will have an opportunity to make up valuable ground when the series hits the dirt at Springfield.

The 63rd Running of the Bettenhausen 100 Presented by Hunt Brothers Pizza takes place Saturday, August 22, as part of the Illinois State Fair. Grandstands and the ticket office open at 9:00 AM, Silver Crown practice runs from 10:00-11:10 AM, qualifying begins at 11:30 AM, and the 100-mile Bettenhausen 100 takes the green at 2:00 PM.

The Bettenhausen 100 will once again feature some of the best drivers in the country competing in the historic dirt championship cars on one of America's most iconic dirt tracks. Saturday's program also includes preliminary action for the 33rd Annual Illinois Sportsman Nationals.

The racing weekend continues Sunday, August 23, when the ARCA Menards Series takes to the Springfield Mile for the 64th Annual Calypso Lemonade 100, joined by the championship feature for the Illinois Sportsman Nationals.

Advance tickets are available now. Fans can save on advance reserved seating for Saturday's USAC Silver Crown event by calling Track Enterprises at (217) 764-3200.

Fans attending Sunday's ARCA Menards Series event can Save Big Money at Menards by purchasing specially priced $20 advance-sale general admission tickets at participating Menards locations throughout Central Illinois.
