Pierce Wins Third USA Nationals in Four Years, Ties Single-Season Win Record

Emily Schwanke

NEW RICHMOND, WI (August 1, 2026) – Bobby Pierce can never be counted out, and Saturday night was proof of why.

The two-time World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision champion has dominated the dirt Late Model world all summer long, but Thursday’s opening night of the USA Nationals was a rare lackluster showing. Pierce qualified poorly, didn’t gain much ground in his Heat Race and finished 12th in the Feature, his worst Series run of the season.

But the No. 32 team wasn’t keen on settling for mediocrity on Saturday with $100,000 on the line. The decision was made to switch to the backup car, which most recently won at Adams County Speedway on July 14. Saturday morning was spent swapping parts over to the spare chassis with a smaller engine and preparing it for battle, and Pierce made sure to reward his crew’s extra effort when the green flag dropped in the 100-lap main event.

From his 10th-place spot in the starting lineup, Pierce quickly worked his way up to sixth and stayed there for most of the long green-flag run that lasted for the first 54 laps of the race. That first caution was the first of many in the second half of the Feature, which kept the field bunched up and gave Pierce ample opportunities to gain more positions.

Pierce was up to second in time for a Lap 33 restart, which placed him on the outside of his closest championship challenger, Nick Hoffman, coming to green. Pierce went wide around Turn 4 on the initial launch, generating enough steam to switch to Hoffman’s inside and throw the slider into Turn 1.

That move cleared, but Pierce then had Brandon Sheppard to deal with on his inside exiting Turn 2 in a three-way race for the lead. Sheppard thought about a slide job of his own in Turn 3, but he wasn’t clear and had to slot in behind Pierce. From that point on, Pierce was the dominant car on track on his way to a six-figure payday.

“I think we made the right call,” Pierce said. “Once again, I’ve got to say thanks to my crew. They got up early today and got these cars switched around, unloaded, shocks off and everything. We went through them hard, just really went through the setup top to bottom. I like this track again. I kind of didn’t like it last year because I was getting lapped, and now I like it again.”

Pierce’s third USA Nationals title made him the fourth driver to win the race three or more times, joining Billy Moyer, Scott Bloomquist and Jonathan Davenport. It was also the fourth six-figure victory of Pierce’s career and his first outside of Eldora Speedway, with the first three coming in the Dirt Track World Championship in 2024 and 2025 and the 2026 Dirt Late Model Dream.

The “Smooth Operator” now stands on the verge of World of Outlaws history, as his 18th Series win on the year tied the record for the most in a single season, matching the mark previously set by Josh Richards in 2016 and Brandon Sheppard in 2017 and 2019. Pierce’s first chance to break the record will come at the next stop on tour at Maquoketa Speedway, where he won last year.

Sheppard fell one spot short of his second USA Nationals victory, while Ethan Dotson recorded the best crown-jewel finish of his career in third. Behind them, Hudson O’Neal and Dustin Sorensen rounded out the top five.

UP NEXT: The World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision kicks off a five-race tour of Iowa at Maquoketa Speedway with the Hawkeye 100 on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 21-22. Get your tickets in advance by clicking here.

Tyler Erb Opens USA Nationals in Victory Lane at Cedar Lake

 Emily Schwanke

NEW RICHMOND, WI (July 30, 2026) – Tyler Erb has a colorful history at Cedar Lake Speedway, one that now includes a victory.

“Terbo” has been a regular at the USA Nationals since 2016, scoring a best finish in the main event of third in 2022. But his most infamous moment in New Richmond, WI had nothing to do with his results, as Cedar Lake was the site of his on-track retaliation incident against Bobby Pierce in 2020 that resulted in a suspension.

Six years later, Erb is doing his best to put his bad boy days behind him. He’s now engaged to fiancée Emma Hodge with a baby on the way, and he approaches his racing career with a renewed sense of maturity and discipline. That growth has led to some gains in the win column in recent years, and he’s now up to three in 2026 with the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision after his Cedar Lake win on Thursday night.

“I haven’t ran good here since I got police escorted out,” Erb said. “I mean, I have ran good here before, just had one bad weekend and I feel like I’ve paid for it every time I’ve come here since. Last week, felt like we had a really good car all week at Fairbury [Speedway]. When it doesn’t work out, it’s really hard for me to just not lose my mind and go postal. I’m working on that, and tonight’s just a testament to that.”

History will show a wire-to-wire performance for Erb in the 30-lap Feature, but his path to the win included plenty of challenges. The biggest one came from Hudson O’Neal, who worked his way from fifth in the starting order to second in time for a Lap 8 restart. O’Neal briefly got alongside Erb in Turn 2 after going back green, but Erb had enough momentum around the top to drive away down the backstretch.

Erb hadn’t seen the last of O’Neal, because the No. 71 remained right behind Erb for most of the race. While both drivers agreed on running the bottom through Turns 3 and 4, the other end of the track was where O’Neal tried over and over to get the lead. Erb and O’Neal both entered low, but Erb then drifted toward the wall through the middle of the corner, opening the door for O’Neal to stay low and try to slide up in front on the exit of Turn 2. O’Neal never found enough speed around the inside to get clear, allowing Erb to hold the lead as the laps clicked by.

One final restart on Lap 23 brought Brandon Sheppard into the picture, and he rallied around the cushion to take second from O’Neal, but he was unable to track down Erb before he took the checkers to claim his first Cedar Lake win.

“This track changes so much,” Erb said. “When I was following cars, it was in dirty air, I was like, ‘I need to move down at some point, someone’s going to drive by me.’ I could see Hud kind of half slide me there. I saw Shepp got to second on the board, and I was like, ‘Well I’ll be damned, here we go.”

Sheppard made up the second half of a Rocket Chassis 1-2 ahead of O’Neal in third. Nick Hoffman and Devin Moran completed the top five.

UP NEXT: The USA Nationals continue at Cedar Lake Speedway with Qualifying, Heat Races, the pole Dash and the FANS Fund Dash on Friday, July 31. Tickets will be available at the gate.

The Super DIRTcar Series remains the premier traveling tour for Big Block Modifieds in the nation.

Each Super DIRTcar Series event follows a traditional short-track program including pre-race Hot Lap sessions, qualifying through Time Trials, Heat Races, and a Last Chance Showdown, all leading up to the 30-car Feature. The number of cars entered that night determines the number of preliminary races. The top 12 qualifiers in the heat races redraw for starting positions.


 


THE MONTH AHEAD: Return to Ohio, SummerFAST Highlight Busy August For Super DIRTcar Series

Brian Nacewicz

MANSFIELD, OH (July 27, 2026) – After a jam-packed July, another busy month of racing is on tap for the Super DIRTcar Series.

The Beasts of the Northeast will be in action six times in nine days in August, starting with a two-night swing through Ohio. First, the Series makes its debut at the iconic Mansfield Speedway on Tuesday, Aug. 11, before returning to Sharon Speedway on Wednesday, Aug. 12.

Then, an annual August staple returns to the schedule, with four consecutive nights of action during SummerFAST.

The event kicks off with the Hall of Fame 100 at Weedsport Speedway on Sunday, Aug. 16, before stops at Brewerton Speedway on Monday, Aug. 17, Land of Legends Raceway on Tuesday, Aug. 17, and a return to Utica-Rome Speedway on Wednesday, Aug. 18.

Here’s a look at what’s ahead:

Mansfield Speedway | Big Block Invasion of Mansfield (Aug. 11)

The August swing kicks off with a super debut at the iconic Mansfield Speedway in Mansfield, OH for the Big Block Invasion of Mansfield.

In addition to the event being the Series’ first visit to Mansfield, it’ll also be the first-ever Big Block Modified race there. No driver in the field will have made a competitive lap around the track, leveling the playing field for everyone.

The RUSH Late Models will join the Super DIRTcar Series for the one-day show.

Sharon Speedway | Steel Valley 75 (Aug. 12)

One night after making their debut at Mansfield, the Super DIRTcar Series returns to Sharon Speedway for the second straight season.

WHAT TO WATCH FOR: First Canada Stop on Tap for DIRTcar 358 Modified Series at Cornwall
Mike Mahaney leads the standings by 12 points over Mat Williamson

joe Grabianowski

For the first time in 2026, the DIRTcar 358 Modified Series will travel out of the United States for its first of two stops in Canada.

A visit to Cornwall Motor Speedway in Long Sault, ON awaits the top 358 Modified stars in the Northeast for the Chico Dingwall Memorial on Sunday, Aug. 2. The event will be a 96-lap Feature paying $10,000-to-win (CAN).

Joining the DIRTcar 358 Modified Series are the track’s Mini Stock, Lightning Sprint, Sportsman, and Novice Sportsman divisions.

For more on the DIRTcar Northeast, follow the DIRTcar Northeast  Facebook page.

Here’s a look at what to watch for at Cornwall:

Mike and Mat: When the Series last battled at Utica-Rome Speedway, Mat Williamson outdueled Mike Mahaney to score his second win of 2026. The St. Catharines, ON driver also cut Mahaney’s lead to 12 points with eight races remaining.

Last year at Cornwall, Mahaney led most of the race before ultimately losing the lead to Tim Fuller toward the end. However, the Elizabethtown, NY driver finished second.  In 11 starts at Cornwall, “Smooth Shoe” has three top fives and seven top 10s.

Williamson, meanwhile, has been better at the 1/4-mile track, earning seven wins, 26 top fives and 32 top 10s in 40 starts. That includes a podium finish during the Spring Shootout with the Super DIRTcar Series in May. He finished fourth during last year’s 358 Modified stop at Cornwall after starting 17th.

A win by Williamson would be his 23rd career triumph, breaking a tie with Fuller for fourth on the Series all-time wins list.

Watch Out for Fuller: Fuller’s win at Cornwall in 2025 was the last time the Edwards, NY driver reached Victory Lane at the track, a place he’s won at on six occasions. In 59 starts, he’s earned 29 top fives and 46 top 10s.

The Northeast Dirt Modified Hall of Fame driver hasn’t finished off the podium in his last three 358 Modified Series starts at the track, and aims for his third Series triumph there, the first coming in 1993.

Along with his success in a 358, he’s earned five top fives at Cornwall with the Super DIRTcar Series, and two top fives with the World of Outlaws Late Models Series presented by DIRTVision. 

Here Comes Hollywood: Fuller isn’t the only outsider who’s had success at Cornwall. Felix Roy, the 2024 Series champion, also has six wins at the track along with 19 top fives and 25 top 10s in 34 starts.

The Napierville, QC driver has made two starts at the 1/4-mile track this season, earning one win and two top fives. However, he earned a 29th-place finish in his lone DIRTcar 358 Modified Series start there.

Like Williamson, “Hollywood” also had success in the Super DIRTcar Series Spring Shootout, finishing third driving the Paille Course Racing No. ONE.

A win on Sunday would be his first career DIRTcar 358 Modified Series victory.

Defending the Bullring: Like most tracks on the DIRTcar 358 Modified Series schedule, Cornwall has a stout group of regulars who aim to win the Chico Dingwall Memorial.

In five regular season Features at Cornwall this season, six different drivers have reached Victory Lane. Joining Roy and David Hebert are the top three in the track’s points standings, Corey Wheeler, Louie Jackson Jr., Kalen Draper, and Ryan Stabler.

Wheeler, from Cornwall, ON, is the current points leader and the only driver to finish in the top five in all six Features. He’s aiming for his second career Series victory, after winning at Brockville Ontario Speedway in 2023. Wheeler has 16 victories, 73 top fives and 113 top 10s in 147 starts at Cornwall.

Stabler, also from Cornwall, ON, is a three-time winner at the track, with 18 top fives and 34 top 10s. Jackson, from Akwesasne, NY, has eight wins at Cornwall, along with 33 top fives and 67 top 10s. 

Both drivers are searching for their first career Series victory.
