Pierce Reclaims Points Lead with Billy Clanton Classic Victory at Senoia

Emily Schwanke

SENOIA, GA (March 28, 2026) � For the second time in as many nights, there�s a new man atop the points table in the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision.

Friday night at East Alabama Motor Speedway, Nick Hoffman took the checkers to lead Bobby Pierce by three points. Pierce rolled into Saturday�s stop at Senoia Raceway with the goal of striking back, and he did exactly that with his fourth win of the year in the Billy Clanton Classic.

With 15 laps remaining, the low lane had become the dominant groove, but Pierce went against the grain to the top of Turns 1 and 2 to build some momentum on Hoffman in the lead. Pierce made contact with third-running Ashton Winger as the two met in the middle down the backstretch, but both drivers kept it straight and Pierce remained in second.

Moments later, Hoffman missed the bottom going into Turn 3, leaving a lane open for Pierce to slip by on the bottom and for Winger to follow him through. The battle for the win became Pierce vs. Winger in the closing laps, and Pierce was able to hold off the winner of the last two World of Outlaws races at Senoia for his first win at the Georgia oval.

�When we had that caution, it�s like the rubber went away for a second, at least a couple laps off of [Turn] 2,� Pierce said. �That�s what allowed me to get the run to get to second. Once we caught the lap cars, it was like, �Man, it�s either risk it for the biscuit or settle in for second.� I noticed how bad [Hoffman] was bunched up there behind the lappers.

�Sent it in there, and by that time, my tires were kind of shot and I just drifted for a second and that let Winger in the door. I�ve really got to apologize to him, I chopped his nose off. Plain and simple, I chopped it off. But that�s what it took to get the win, it was either that or finish third or fourth.�

The win was the 46th of Pierce�s career with the World of Outlaws, moving him within two of Shane Clanton in fourth on the all-time wins list. It also has his points lead over Hoffman at three markers going into one of his home tracks at Farmer City Raceway in two weeks.

Behind Pierce, Winger and Hoffman, Chris Madden and Ryan Gustin made up the rest of the top five.

Hoffman Denies Wilson to Win World of Outlaws Return to East Alabama

Emily Schwanke

PHENIX CITY, AL (March 27, 2026) � In his first visit to East Alabama Motor Speedway, Nick Hoffman wasted no time making Phenix City, AL feel like home.

With Friday�s Chattahoochee Clash being the track�s first World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision race in 20 years, Hoffman was one of several drivers turning their first laps around the �Playground of Power.� But the Mooresville, NC driver looked like anything but an East Alabama rookie as he wrestled the lead away from Daulton Wilson with three laps remaining to win his fourth World of Outlaws race of 2026.

�For me, I�ve raced at so many new racetracks across the country, I don�t know what to expect as far as perfect,� Hoffman said. �Here, you just kind of go back to your notebook, look at places that are similar and try and circle those. They did a great job, can�t believe I�ve never been here before. It�s only five and a half hours from the house for me, just never been here.�

For most of the 40-lap contest, it looked like Wilson was on his way to the first World of Outlaws win of his career and his first triumph behind the wheel of the Big Frog/Viper Motorsports No. 58V. Hoffman challenged him down low going into Turn 1 lap after lap, but Wilson held strong on the top each time. Between lap traffic, restarts, and anything else East Alabama threw at him, it appeared nothing could keep Wilson out of the lead.

But Hoffman�s presence behind him never wavered, and that meant he was ready to pounce when the opportunity came. Coming to the two-to-go signal, Wilson jumped the cushion in Turns 3 and 4, leaving enough room for Hoffman to slip by on the bottom. Wilson got back in his rhythm in the final two laps, but it was too late, as he could only watch Hoffman drive home to the 15th World of Outlaws win of his career.

�There late in the race, after that last restart, I got him to where he committed to that top,� Hoffman said. �I just kept bombing it in there just to show him my nose in [Turns] 1 and 2 thinking maybe he would peel off that top a little bit in [Turns] 3 and 4 and he never did. I just pressured him enough to have him make a mistake there. I knew he would be pretty good here, this track is pretty similar to Fayetteville [Motor Speedway], which is what he grew up on.�

Wilson knew he had one hand around the trophy in the closing laps until ultimately falling short. However, his second-place finish continued his recent hot streak that now stands at five-straight top 10s, and Wilson remains confident that the his first Series win is on the way.

�I was leading going down the back straightaway and all my warning lights came on,� Wilson said. �I just lifted and went down there and missed the racetrack. We�ve got to figure out what�s going on there, that kind of sucks.�

Friday�s race signaled a big step in the right direction for Tim McCreadie, who finished third for his first podium since the first World of Outlaws night of Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals. Behind him, Jonathan Davenport and Chris Madden completed the top five.

UP NEXT: The World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision heads to Georgia for the Billy Clanton Classic at Senoia Raceway on Saturday, March 28. Tickets will be available at the gate.

O'Neal Comes From Behind at Magnolia to Top Duel at the Mag Finale

josh james

COLUMBUS, MS (March 21, 2026) � What a difference 24 hours makes.

Hudson O�Neal�s weekend at Magnolia Motor Speedway got off to a tumultuous start on Friday night with engine trouble in Qualifying. With no points to worry about, the K&L Rumley Enterprises team sat out the remainder of the night to change the powerplant and prepare for Saturday�s program.

That decision paid off almost instantly on the final night of the Duel at the Mag, as O�Neal topped the charts in Qualifying and won his Heat Race in commanding fashion. But the bad luck wasn�t over quite yet.

While racing it out toward the front with the likes of Jonathan Davenport, Dale McDowell and Ashton Winger, the No. 6 suffered some nose damage that the crew elected to fix in the work area under a Lap 25 caution, sending O�Neal to the rear with 35 laps remaining.

Within a dozen laps, O�Neal was already back in the top 10, and he got the cautions he needed late to prevent the leaders from getting out of range. A restart 17 laps prior to the finish put him right on Davenport�s tail, and he soon got to the inside of the No. 49 while Bobby Pierce pounded the cushion in a three-wide battle for the lead.

He couldn�t make that move stick, but he kept working the inside and eventually prevailed over Davenport. O�Neal had one more scare when the nose folded in again coming to the white flag, but he managed to hold on long enough to score the fifth win of his career with the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision and his second of 2026.

�I just tried my best to stay in that bottom and under caution, just roll around that inside and keep the load off the left-front to keep it out of the dirt,� O�Neal said regarding his plan to minimize the impact of the damage. �I thought our race was over whenever we pitted. We weren�t very good for the first 10 or so laps, and then it just felt like the slicker it got, we just kept coming around a little bit. We were a little too tight early in the race and just kept getting better and better as it went on.�

Davenport knew he had a shot on the last lap with O�Neal�s issues, but his Hail Mary attempt in the final set of corners wasn�t enough to earn World of Outlaws win number 19.

�I thought I had a run on Hudson there the last lap coming off [Turn] 2,� Davenport said. �I knew if I could hit [Turns] 3 and 4 just perfect, but I was going to have to give it everything. I just went in there and got a little too tight and got in the fence and let Bobby by. Anyway, wasn�t concerned with second there, we was going to try to win.�

Pierce put together an impressive charge of his own, as he needed a Last Chance Showdown win to punch his ticket to the Feature before climbing from 17th to second for FOX Factory Hard Charger honors. Behind Davenport in third, Nick Hoffman and Tyler Erb rounded out the top five.

UP NEXT: The World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision wraps up March with another weekend in the southeast at East Alabama Motor Speedway on Friday, March 27, and Senoia Raceway on Saturday, March 28. For more information on both events, click here.

Pierce Blasts Around Troutman for Friday Victory at Magnolia

josh james

COLUMBUS, MS (March 20, 2026) � No one loves to see a new addition to the schedule more than Bobby Pierce.

The first of eight tracks hosting their first World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision race in 2026 was Hendry County Motorsports Park in February, and Pierce was the first to reach Victory Lane.

Fast forward a month to the first night of the Duel at the Mag, and the two-time and defending Series champion once again rallied to the front to win Magnolia Motor Speedway�s first World of Outlaws race.

�That�s just a cool piece of history there to be part of,� Pierce said following the 45th World of Outlaws win of his career. �Man, I�m wore out from that race. The track formed those dirt bike ruts and the tires would sit in it, you never knew if it was going to take it or not. You had to be up on the wheel constantly. Fun racetrack, really. I loved it.�

At the start of the 40-lap Feature, it appeared Drake Troutman was in position to grab the first win of his sophomore World of Outlaws campaign. Engine trouble earlier in the week forced crew chief Hunter Cornell to make an emergency trip back to the G.R. Smith Motorsports shop in Statesville, NC to pick up another car, a situation that prevented Troutman from turning any laps in Thursday�s practice sessions.

Nevertheless, Troutman proved he had the fastest car on the track early on, roaring around the outside of Nick Hoffman to take the lead six laps in. The gap ballooned to north of two seconds at one point, but it quickly began diminishing once Pierce passed Hoffman for second and began matching Troutman�s pace on the cushion.

Soon after a caution around the halfway point, Pierce threw a big slider into Turn 1 and cleared Troutman. The No. 22* pulled the crossover down the backstretch but then committed to the bottom, leaving the high side wide open for Pierce to set sail. The No. 32 was in command from that point forward, leading the rest of the way for his second win in seven days following last Saturday�s triumph at Smoky Mountain Speedway.

�When I caught Nick for second there, I think I kind of reeled him down and he went down, got around the top,� Pierce said. �Then that caution came out, I wasn�t really wanting to see that because we were catching Drake. Once again, I feel like I kind of chose the wrong spot on the restart. Hoffman kind of got around us, we had a really good race, racing three-wide for second. I don�t know, just kept working and working [Troutman], the car was good.�

Hoffman crossed the line second to keep Pierce within 10 points in the championship standings, while Jonathan Davenport finished third in his first World of Outlaws start of the season. Ryan Gustin and Ashton Winger rounded out the top five, while Troutman faded to sixth at the checkers.

Pierce Goes Back-to-Back in Tennessee Tipoff at Smoky Mountain

MARYVILLE, TN (March 14, 2026) � Racing can often be a �right place, right time� kind of sport. Saturday night at Smoky Mountain Speedway, Bobby Pierce was in that ideal spot when it mattered most.

The early stages of the Tennessee Tipoff set up an all-southeastern showdown between Brandon Overton and Chris Madden at the front of the field. But with two laps remaining, contact on the backstretch sent Dennis Erb Jr. sideways in front of the field. With no time to react, Overton clobbered Erb�s machine to set off a multi-car pileup that also included Madden.

With both leaders knocked out of contention, Pierce advanced from third to first for the final sprint to the finish. Two laps later, the �Smooth Operator� clinched his second win of the season with the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision and his second in a row at Smoky Mountain.

�It doesn�t feel like a win, but I�ll take it,� Pierce said. �That looked like a pretty hard hit from my viewpoint. I saw it happening right away, I was able to duck down to the infield and I still felt like I was almost in the wreck. That�s how big the wreck is, spread out, it took Madden out too, so that sucks to see for him, Brandon and all them guys.

�I don�t know what happened there, but it�s great to get the win. When that did happen, it was me and them Nick [Hoffman] on a single-file restart. The stakes kind of got upped a little bit, because not only was I competing for the win, I had Nick behind me and I really wanted to beat him.�

The win allowed Pierce to extend his small advantage over Hoffman in the standings, as the gap now sits at seven points between the two leaders. It also marked the 44th World of Outlaws win of his career, bringing him within four of Shane Clanton in fourth on the all-time wins list with 48 victories.

A third World of Outlaws championship remains Pierce�s ultimate goal for 2026, and leaving a southeastern red-dirt facility with the trophy for the second-consecutive year served as a reminder that the No. 32 team�s dominance can stretch far beyond the Midwest bullrings.

�The track tonight felt a lot like Lake Cumberland [Speedway] or Ponderosa [Speedway],� Pierce said. �Just not quite up on the wheel, it got that southern-style driving towards the end. But I liked it, looking forward to coming back here in the future.�

Hoffman, Ricky Thornton Jr., Dale McDowell and Tim McCreadie rounded out the top five.

Mike Marlar Keeps Rocky Top Rumble Trophy in Tennessee with Volunteer Victory

BULLS GAP, TN (March 13, 2026) � Winning at Volunteer Speedway means going through some of the toughest competition the southeast has to offer. In Friday night�s Rocky Top Rumble, no one had anything for Tennessee�s own Mike Marlar.

The �Winfield Warrior� has conquered �The Gap� in the past in multiple special events and regional shows, but he had never beaten the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision at one of his home tracks. Marlar�s fifth Series start at Volunteer turned out to be his best, as he stayed out front throughout the 40-lap contest to bag the $12,000 winner�s payday.

The 2018 World of Outlaws champion may have scaled his schedule back a bit in comparison to years past, but Friday was proof that he�s still as formidable of a competitor as ever when he does unload.

�We just haven�t been racing much, trying to show up here and there, no testing, none of that,� Marlar said. �Went down [to Golden Isles Speedway] last week, had a bad experience down there. Hit the wall in Qualifying at the Lucas show, and I said, �Man, I am stopping, going testing, I�m going to get my program turned around here and get my head around it.� It paid off tonight, it�s awesome.�

Marlar was slated to start third, but he inherited a spot on the front row when Bilstein Pole Award winner Ricky Thornton Jr. jumped the initial start. On the second attempt, Marlar dropped back several spots before Jimmy Owens took a tumble in Turn 3, resetting the field once more.

When the race finally got rolling, a Turn 3 slide job put Marlar in front of Chris Madden early on. Madden handed a slider right back to Marlar on the next circuit, but Marlar was able to pull the crossover and hold onto the lead.

Tyler Erb�s flat tire with 12 laps to go erased Marlar�s one-second margin to the field, and by the time that caution flew, Ricky Thornton Jr. and Bobby Pierce emerged as his closest challengers. Both drivers remained right on his tail through the closing stretch as they fought their way through traffic, but Marlar held on to claim the 19th World of Outlaws win of his career.

�I was trying to make that first move to slide Madden down there [in Turn 3], he just knew what I was going to do and ran over me,� Marlar said. �After that, everything went good. I got through the traffic, felt like I probably made some moves at the right time in traffic, squeezed it when I needed to squeeze it and all that and got through there. That worked out good, too.�

Thornton settled for a Volunteer career-best second-place result, while Pierce cracked the top 10 at Bulls Gap for the first time in third. Madden and Dale McDowell rounded out the top five.

UP NEXT: The second half of this weekend�s Tennessee doubleheader takes the World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision to Smoky Mountain Speedway on Saturday, March 14. Get your tickets in advance by clicking here.

Heavy Rain Combined With Cold Temperatures Postpone Delaware Diamond 50 at Georgetown

GEORGETOWN, DE (March 26, 2026) � With weather models showing heavy continuous rain in Georgetown, DE on Friday, and cold temperatures on Saturday hindering the track drying process and leading to unfavorable racing conditions, Super DIRTcar Series and Georgetown Speedway officials have postponed the Delaware Diamond 50.

The Super DIRTcar Series will continue its high-octane show on Saturday, April 11, at Can-Am Speedway in LaFargeville, NY, with the Thunder in the Thousand Islands.

CLASS OF 2026: Former Champions, Rising Stars Highlight Super DIRTcar Series Roster
The Championship Season opens on Saturday, April 11, at Can-Am Speedway

josh james

WEEDSPORT, NY (March 30, 2026) � The road to the 2026 Super DIRTcar Series championship begins when the Beasts of the Northeast visit Can-Am Speedway for the Thunder in the Thousand Islands.

Making up this year�s 17-driver roster are two former champions, Series veterans trying to earn their first title, and rising superstars aiming to become the best driver in Big Block Modified racing.

Those 17 drivers will battle for eight months, with one driver raising the trophy at The Dirt Track at Charlotte during the World of Outlaws World Finals, Nov. 4-7.

Here�s a look at the 2026 Roster:

Mat Williamson/3x Series Champions/St. Catharines, ON

Fresh off a successful title defense in 2025, Mat Williamson returns to the Super DIRTcar Series in 2026 in search of his fourth championship. The St. Catharines, ON driver and Buzz Chew Racing already have momentum entering this year, after winning their third Big Gator trophy at Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals.

Williamson had a monumental season last year, earning five wins � Super DIRT Week 53, World Finals, Ransomville Speedway, Land of Legends Raceway, and Brockville Ontario Speedway. He also added 21 top fives and 25 top 10s in 26 starts.

�Money Mat� enters the championship season with 38 career Series wins, one away from tying Bob McCreadie for seventh on the Series all-time wins list.

Alex Yankowski/Covington Township, PA

Alex Yankowski turned heads in his second full-time season with the Super DIRTcar Series, holding the Series points lead before being overtaken by Williamson in July. The Covington Township, PA driver held on to finish second at the end of the season, with two victories at Volusia Speedway Park and at Can-Am Speedway in September. He finished the championship season with 17 top fives and 23 top 10s.

�Kid Rocket� enters the year with four career Series wins.

Alex Payne/Hopewell, NY

From one Alex to another, Alex Payne took a massive leap in 2025, finishing in the top three in the standings for the first time in his career. He also made a late charge to get to that spot, winning two of the final four races of the year (Georgetown and Charlotte), along with a win at Brockville in July. His consistency also played a role in his third-place finish, earning 16 top fives and 20 top 10s.

Payne, like Yankowski, has four career Series victories.

Matt Sheppard/10x Series Champion/Savannah, NY

Despite not winning a Series championship in 2025, Matt Sheppard still celebrated a major milestone. �Super Matt� earned his 100th career Series victory last season at Autodrome Drummond, along with another win at Drummond, and triumphs at Albany-Saratoga Speedway, Thunder Mountain Speedway, Volusia Speedway Park, and The Dirt Track at Charlotte.

Sheppard continues to chase Brett Hearn for two of the Series most significant milestones. If he wins his first championship since 2022, and 11th overall, he�ll break a tie with Hearn for the most titles in Series history.

The Savannah, NY driver will also have a new look in 2026, sporting a red, white, and blue color scheme on his No. 9S.

Erick Rudolph/Ransomville, NY

Erick Rudolph made his return to the Super DIRTcar Series in 2025, earning a fifth-place finish at the end of the season. The Ransomville, NY driver scored his lone win of the season last February in the DIRTcar Nationals finale, and stayed consistent for most of the season, finishing in a top 10 position 21 times in 26 starts.

Rudolph enters the season searching for his 12th career victory.

Mike Mahaney/Elizabethtown, NY

Mike Mahaney returns to the Super DIRTcar Series for his seventh full-time season in 2026 after a sixth-place finish last year. Despite being held out of Victory Lane, �Smooth Shoe� had seven top fives and 16 top 10s, including a second-place finish at Weedsport in the Heroes Remembered last May.

Mahaney is a three-time Super DIRTcar Series Feature winner.

Jimmy Phelps/Baldwinsville, NY

For the 21st time in his career, Jimmy Phelps will be a full-time Super DIRTcar Series member.

The Baldwinsville, NY driver rebounded from a tough start to the 2025 season to finish seventh in the standings on the strength of three top fives and 15 top 10s. Phelps knocked on the door to Victory Lane twice throughout the season, earning podium finishes at Brewerton Speedway during SummerFAST and Albany-Saratoga during Malta Massive Weekend.

Phelps is a 22-time Super DIRTcar Series winner, tied with Will Cagle for 15th on the Series all-time wins list.

Peter Britten/Brisbane, QLD

Peter Britten had a memorable season in 2025, his first year, in which he won two Super DIRTcar Series events.

The �Batman�s� first win came on Valentine�s Day during DIRTcar Nationals, and the second came at Weedsport Speedway in exciting fashion during SummerFAST. Britten finished the championship season with four top fives at Thunder Mountain, Weedsport, Ransomville Speedway, and Mohawk International Raceway, along with 13 top 10s.

He enters 2026 as a five-time Super DIRTcar Series winner.

Tim Sears Jr./Hastings, NY

Tim Sears Jr. is back for his sixth full-time Super DIRTcar Series season, after finishing ninth in 2025.

The Hastings, NY driver earned his first career Super DIRTcar Series victory last season, winning at Brewerton during SummerFAST in front of his hometown crowd. Along with the win, �Timmer� finished the season with five top fives at Brewerton, Drummond (2), Albany-Saratoga, and Georgetown. He also earned nine top 10s.

Jack Lehner/Saratoga Springs, NY

Jack Lehner returns to the Super DIRTcar Series for his seventh full-time season in 2026. By finishing 10th overall last year, the Saratoga Springs, NY driver earned his fourth consecutive top 10 season finish with two top fives and 12 top 10s, including a podium finish at Charlotte in the season finale.

The �Ginga Ninja�s� other top five came at Brockville.

Felix Roy/Napierville, QC

�Hollywood� Felix Roy is back for his fourth Super DIRTcar Series season, following an 11th-place finish in 2025. The Napierville, QC driver earned two top fives with fifth-place finishes at Brockville and Charlotte and added 10 top 10s.

Roy has already surpassed his best finish from a year ago, narrowly missing out on a DIRTcar Nationals win in this season�s opening race at Volusia Speedway Park.

Anthony Perrego/Montgomery, NY

Anthony Perrego is aiming to rebound after finishing 12th in the final season standings. Even with the bad luck that followed him throughout 2025, the Montgomery, NY driver still found Victory Lane when the Series returned to Sharon Speedway last August. He added two other top fives and three top 10s.

Perrego is currently tied for 32nd on the Series all-time wins list with six victories.

Justin Stone/Middlebury, VT

Justin Stone will represent Vermont in his third full-time Super DIRTcar Series season, still searching for his first Series victory. Stone finished 14th in last year�s standings, scoring two top 10 finishes, crossing the line 10th at both Albany-Saratoga, where he finished third in the track�s standings, and Mohawk.

Matt Stangle/MD3 Rookie of the Year/Neshanic Station, NJ

Matt Stangle made the most of his first season with the Super DIRTcar Series by earning MD3 Rookie of the Year honors in 2025. The Neshanic Station, NJ driver finished 15th in the overall standings, with a top five and two top 10s.

However, that top-five finish came on the season�s final night, when he finished fifth in the World Finals finale.

Marcus Dinkins/Watkins Glen, NY

Long-time Super DIRTcar Series supporter Marcus Dinkins is back in 2026 for his sixth season. The Watkins Glen, NY driver made 11 starts in 2025, earning his best finish, a 15th at Brockville in October.

Mike Trautschold/Roscoe, NY

Mike Trautschold returns for his third Super DIRTcar Series season, behind the wheel of his No. 28 machine. The Roscoe, NY driver started 11 Features last season, with his best finishes coming at Weedsport and Brockville, where he crossed the line 16th.

Matt Caprara/Clayton, NY

The lone newcomer on the Super DIRTcar Series in 2026 is Matt Caprara. The Clayton, NY driver will be an MD3 Rookie of the Year contender this season and has already made four Super DIRTcar Series starts this year after competing at DIRTcar Nationals.

Caprara has started 25 Super DIRTcar Series Features, earning his best finish of 11th at Brockville in 2024.

While Darren Smith had originally planned on running the entire Super DIRTcar Series season, he has elected to focus more on his business. We'll still see the Binghamton, NY driver at most of the Series events throughout 2026.

The Super DIRTcar Series kicks off its 2026 championship season at Can-Am Speedway with the Thunder in the Thousand Islands on Saturday, April 11.
