Kyle Larson On Top of Sprint Car World with Second Knoxville Nationals Title!
Larson Second to Lead All 50 Laps
by Bill Wright

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 12, 2023) – Kyle Larson reigned supreme on Saturday night as he captured his second NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals Presented by Casey’s in three years. The Elk Grove, California native joined Donny Schatz (2015) as the only two drivers to lead wire to wire since the “Granddaddy of Them All” went to 50 laps in distance. Larson earned $185,000 for his win aboard the Paul Silva #57. It was his tenth career win at the “Sprint Car Capital of the World.”

Larson, who earned the pole on his Thursday qualifying night, shot out to a big lead over Schatz, Rico Abreu, Carson Macedo and Kerry Madsen. Larson built a 3.7 second lead by the fifth lap, and was already in traffic on lap seven. Abreu moved by Schatz for second on lap 14, as Logan Schuchart entered the top five.

Chase Randall had a top ten run stopped with a flat right rear tire on lap 15. At the same time, Abreu’s right rear was going flat, as he had to surrender the runner-up spot. Larson shot back out to a lead, as Madsen jumped from sixth to fourth on the restart, as he and Schuchart battled back and forth. Gio Scelzi and David Gravel waged their own duel for the sixth spot as Larson re-entered traffic on lap 22, before a mandatory red flag at the halfway point. Larson led Schatz, Macedo, Schuchart and Madsen to begin the second half.

Schuchart quickly moved into third, while Scelzi entered the top five. Schuchart put a slider on Schatz in turn four for second on lap 27. That’s the point, Gravel continued his charge from row eleven, dueling and winning a battle with Macedo for the fourth spot. With ten laps to go, Schuchart’s runner-up bid ended in a puff of smoke, bringing out the last caution.

The ten lap dash saw Larson ahead of Schatz, Gravel, Scelzi and Macedo. Gravel’s slider in turn four on Schatz earned him second with eight to go, and Scelzi performed the same type of move on Schatz for third. Schatz rebounded late in a three-wide battle for third, and Scelzi finished fourth. Macedo was fifth, followed by Brad Sweet, Abreu, Buddy Kofoid, Madsen and Sheldon Haudenschild.

Justin Peck won the 22-lap B main, Lynton Jeffrey claimed the 15-lap C main, Lachlan McHugh won the D main and Brooke Tatnell took the E main. A series of scary crashes plagued the night. Cody Ihlen crashed hard down the frontstretch. He was taken in for observation. Matt Covington did the same in the D main and was also taken in to be examined. James McFadden led the B main when his left rear tire blew, sending him into the wall and upside down. He was uninjured, as was Tasker Phillips, who also had a left rear go down while running tenth and flipped.

Chase Randall was the JETCO Rookie of the Nationals ($1,000), and Anthony Macri was the Beaver Drill & Tool “Jesse Hockett Mr. Sprint Car,” earning him $6,000.

In preliminary festivities, Sheldon Haudenschild and the Marshall-Stenhouse #17 team earned the DGRD Best Appearing Car of the Nationals ($1500). Brandon Wimmer and the DGRD #7TW Team was second ($750) and Cory Eliason was third ($400). Brandon Wimmer and the Dennis Gainey #7TW team won the Avanti Windows and Doors Best Dressed Crew Award ($500). The Jason Johnson Racing #41 team was second ($250), followed by the DGRD #6B team ($150). The Knapp Family Best Appearing Helmet went to Carson McCarl ($500). Anthony Macri was second ($300) and Sheldon Haudenschild third ($200). Kyle Larson received $2000 as the SprintCarUnlimited.com Pole Award Winner.

“To win another Knoxville Nationals feels amazing,” said Larson in Victory Lane. “When you have guys like Donny, Rico and Gravel coming from the back breathing down your neck, it’s definitely nerve-wracking. I feel like I ran about as good a race as I could. I kept my eyes open for crumbs in the middle. It started latching a little rubber there with 15 or 17 to go. It was helping me on entry. It all just worked out. This is my favorite week of the year. I look forward to this event all year long. It’s all I think about all week. I’m glad we could get this black and blue car to victory lane for (Paul Silva). He’s the greatest at what he does.”

“I want to be a two-time winner of the Knoxville Nationals so bad,” said Gravel. “Last year I gave one away, tonight I just needed a couple more laps. We just had a really good car. The track has been really consistent. They till the top, and it’s really fast around the top. I was able to get going early, and then I had a couple of bad laps about ten laps in. I lost a couple spots, then I got to the top and knew that’s where I needed to be the rest of the race. I finally got by Gio, and was able to slide Carson, then I got a run on Donny. If I could have cleared them earlier and got going, we would have been good.”

“We were kind of hanging there before (the break),” said Schatz. “We could get to the bottom pretty good, and I thought we’d have a chance on one of the restarts on the top and kept pace with him. I was running it for all it was worth, but it wasn’t enough. The racetrack was definitely different than the other night. We just didn’t have enough changes with it. All we did was change tires on the red, and try to make a few adjustments to get better. We just got worse. I couldn’t hold the left rear up the rest of the race. I was kind of hanging on. We raced as hard as we could.”

Kyle Larson On Top of Sprint Car World with Second Knoxville Nationals Title!
Larson Second to Lead All 50 Laps

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 12, 2023) – Kyle Larson reigned supreme on Saturday night as he captured his second NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals Presented by Casey’s in three years. The Elk Grove, California native joined Donny Schatz (2015) as the only two drivers to lead wire to wire since the “Granddaddy of Them All” went to 50 laps in distance.

Nightly Recap

Aaron Reutzel Cruises to “Hard Knox Night” Win to Earn Berth in Saturday’s Championship!
David Gravel, Scott Bogucki and Davey Heskin Also Punch Their Tickets to the Big Dance
by Bill Wright

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 11, 2023) – Four drivers locked themselves into Saturday night’s 62nd NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals Presented by Casey’s finale by topping a 78-car field on “Hard Knox Night” at the Knoxville Raceway. Aaron Reutzel led flag to flag to earn his eighth career 410 feature. Reutzel, second place David Gravel, third place Scott Bogucki and fourth place Davey Heskin all earned $4,000, but will also see a minimum of $15,000 for starting Saturday’s finale in the 21st through 24th spots. Parker Price-Miller was fifth and earned $5,000, but will head to an eleventh place starting spot in Saturday’s B main.

Reutzel’s early lead came ahead of Bogucki, Jamie Ball, Ryan Timms and Brandon Wimmer. On lap two, Gravel shot from sixth to third to gain an all-important transfer position to Saturday’s feature, while Wimmer moved into fourth, getting by Ball on lap four. Balog slowed at that time while running sixth, but re-blended into the starting order. On lap seven, he would suffer a flat right rear, collecting Sye Lynch and Shane Golobic. Only Golobic would continue.

Gravel passed Bogucki for second on the restart. Price-Miller found some momentum at the halfway point, shooting on the low side from seventh to fifth on lap 13. A slider in turn four on Wimmer, garnered him the fourth spot with ten to go. Reutzel entered traffic on lap 19. Heskin found things to his liking on the bottom groove at about the same time, passing Wimmer for fifth.

Heskin reeled in Price-Miller and passed him on the low side of turn four for fourth with three to go. Up front, Gravel gained on Reutzel at the checkers, finishing just a tenth of a second behind him. Reutzel, Gravel, Bogucki and Heskin were followed by Price-Miller and Brent Marks. Wimmer, Timms, Justin Henderson and Cory Eliason rounded out the top ten. Reutzel and Bogucki set quick time over their respective groups. Gravel, Price-Miller, Eliason, Chris Windom, Tim Kaeding and Justin Sanders were heat race winners. Marks and Lynch won B mains. Skylar Prochaska claimed the C. Gage Pulkrabek and Sam Hafertepe Jr. were flip victims in hot laps. Both were done for the night, as was Bill Wagner, who was involved in another flip in practice involving Sanders. No one was injured.

“Friday’s not the way we want to get locked in,” said Reutzel in Victory Lane. “It was unfortunate what happened, but my guys fought hard. We put another car together and we’re locked back into the Nationals. That’s what it’s all about. It’s basically a $19,000 win (Saturday’s feature pays $15,000 to start). That’s what we’re here for.”

“When they till the top here, it gets so easy to run,” said Gravel. “You’re just running qualifying laps at that point. Once I found that lane halfway through, I picked up my pace a little bit. Three and four was starting to get some character. I think in a longer race, it will get a little more technical. Aaron set a torrid pace. I’m just happy to get in the show. We’ve been fast, and we had a fast enough car to win on our prelim night…that’s racing sometimes.”

“For me personally…I don’t have the words,” said Bogucki of transferring to Saturday’s feature for the first time. “I came over here ten years ago as a crew guy, and saw this as a dream. We missed it by one car two or three times…same thing Wednesday night. After last week, it’s nice to rebound back. About two laps in, we had a good racecar. We were pacing Aaron, and then he was getting away a little bit. We got free at the end.”

“Damn, it feels good to make that thing!” said an emotional Heskin, who will be making his fourth start, but first since 2012. “You try for so many years, and it’s such a mental game here trying to keep yourself up. We started rolling the middle there. It just feels so good. We blew our motor (Wednesday) and watched from the grandstand. Watching from the outside, kind of gives you perspective. To lock ourselves in is big!”

Nightly Recap

Carson Macedo Triumphs in Return on Night #2 of Knoxville Nationals!
Kyle Larson and Rico Abreu Are High Point Drivers and Will Start on Row One Saturday
by Bill Wright

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 10, 2023) – Carson Macedo left the Knoxville Raceway in June with burns in an ambulance. He returned Thursday night and won on Iowa Lottery Qualifying Night at the 62nd NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals Presented by Casey’s. The Lemoore, California native earned $12,000 for his win aboard the Jason Johnson Racing #41. Macedo earned himself a spot inside row three for Saturday night’s main event. Kyle Larson and Rico Abreu emerged as high point drivers for the week, and it will be an all-California front row on Saturday night (point totals below).

Anthony Macri led at the outset of the main event ahead of Dusty Zomer, Garet Williamson, Macedo and Larson. Williamson wrestled second from Zomer on lap four, and Macedo followed him on the high side into third a lap later. Meanwhile, Spencer Bayston shot by Larson for fifth, and then passed Zomer for the fourth spot on lap seven.

Macri was into lapped traffic by the tenth circuit. Macedo chased down the second place car of Williamson and threw a slider on him in turn two. It came up short, but Williamson was able to keep going despite contact with the wall. With his momentum slowed, Bayston pounced for the third spot.

With ten laps to go, Daryn Pittman flipped in turn three. He was uninjured. On the restart, Macri got loose, and Macedo shot by into the lead. Meanwhile, Austin McCarl had been flying forward, getting by both Logan Schuchart and Larson to move into the top five. Ian Madsen came to a stop a lap later, bringing caution again. That gave Bayston an opportunity to pass Macri on the high side for second, and Larson to move back into the top five.

Another lap, another caution, this time for debris. On lap 19, both Larson and Schuchart moved by McCarl for fourth and fifth. Abreu was also making strides after winning the B, and had surged fourteen spots to seventh with four laps to go. At that point, Brad Sweet lost a tire and flipped in turn one. He was o.k.

The restart saw Macedo leading Bayston, Macri, Larson and Schuchart back to green. On lap 24, Abreu shot from seventh to fifth. Macedo was coming to the checkers when the red flag flew again, this time for a turned over Jamie Veal in turn two. He was uninjured.

Macedo maintained his advantage, as the race was extended to 26 laps. Larson made a last lap pass of Bayston for second. Macri was fourth and Abreu was fifth. McCarl, Schuchart, Zomer, Buddy Kofoid and Brock Zearfoss rounded out the top ten. Abreu set quick time over the 54-car field, while Zach Hampton, Kevin Thomas Jr., Kalib Henry, Larson and Ayrton Gennetten won heats. Shane Golobic won the C main, and Abreu claimed the B.

“I thought the track was pretty racy there,” said Macedo in Victory Lane. “The track got fast, and I was able to capitalize a little bit. I hit the bottom nice there one time and I was able to slide (Williamson) for second. Macri just missed the bottom on the start, and I was able to fire across to get the lead. I knew at that point it was going to be tough to get by me as long as I started logging laps around the top. I knew Spencer was good, and I saw Kyle and (Abreu) has been fast. I knew if I just fired off the bottom and won the race to turn one, I’d be in good shape. It stunk a few weeks ago to have that wreck, and it was a tough road back. To come back here and win is pretty incredible.”

“Winning the Knoxville Nationals was cool, but I wanted to say I started on the pole of the Knoxville Nationals someday,” said Larson. “We were able to get a good prelim night in. We qualified o.k. going out late. Driving from the fourth row to win the heat was pretty awesome. We had a good car in the feature, I just made a lot of mistakes mostly that whole race. To still come away with a second after being that sloppy, I’m happy. We just need to clean a lot of things up. I think Rico’s on the front row with me, and he’s been tough this year, especially at Knoxville.”

“That start was everything,” said Bayston. “Starting tenth, with the guys I had in front of me, I knew I was going to have to make something happen on the start. I was behind Brad, and they got kind of jumbled up. I was able to time it perfectly, and get a row. Before I knew it, we were sitting in third. It just feels really good. I’ve never made a Knoxville Nationals A main, and I’ve been trying for so long. It just feels so good. This is the most special place, and the most special race of all of sprint car racing. Just making the A main feels so good.”

Nightly Recap

Donny Schatz Begins Knoxville Nationals Defense with Victory on Night #1!
Schatz is Also the Point Leader for Wednesday
by Bill Wright

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 9, 2023) – Donny Schatz charged from the fourth row to earn victory on BRANDT Professional Agriculture Qualifying Night #1 of the 62nd NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals Presented by Casey’s Wednesday night. The Fargo, North Dakota driver is an eleven-time winner of the Knoxville Nationals, but those victories were never preceded by a preliminary win. He’s hoping to change that on Saturday. His win Wednesday was worth $12,000 aboard the Tony Stewart Racing #15. Schatz also was the high point driver on a night that saw many of the fastest cars in qualifying fail to transfer through their heat. Hunter Schuerenberg, Kerry Madsen, Gio Scelzi and Corey Day rounded out the top five in points (full points below).

Blake Hahn shot from his pole position in the 25-lap feature to lead early over Dustin Selvage, Chase Randall, Madsen and Schuerenberg. Randall and Madsen both shot by Selvage on lap two for second and third, while Schuerenberg followed them into fourth on the next lap. Sheldon Haudenschild started outside row six, but was into the top five by lap four. Schatz had to repass Haudenschild on lap nine using the low side, and then claimed fourth from Schuerenberg on lap ten. Hahn entered lapped traffic at that point, while Haudenschild re-enterd the top five on lap 13.

Justin Peck was on a roll and had a run at Haudenschild on lap 17 when he made contact with his right rear and took a wicked ride down the frontstretch with eight laps to go. Peck climbed out of the car.

Hahn led Randall, Madsen, Schatz and Haudenschild back to green. Randall dogged the leader and slid in front of him in turn four to lead lap 18. Schatz followed him by Hahn to claim second on lap 19. Schatz reeled in Randall slowly, passing him once, only to have Randall shoot back by him.

On lap 22, Schatz executed a slider in turn three and claimed the point for good. Randall followed him to the checkers, followed by Haudenschild, who grabbed third with two to go, Madsen and Hahn. Sye Lynch, Schuerenberg, Selvage, Brandon Wimmer and Gio Scelzi completed the top ten. David Gravel set quick time on the 52-car field, but suffered a setback in his heat. That sent him to the C. He won that, but was mired deep in the B main, which was won by Scelzi. Brady Bacon, Haudenschild, Justin Henderson, Lynch and Carson McCarl won heat races.

“We used to be really good in the prelims, and not as good on Saturday,” said Schatz in Victory Lane of his first prelim win in 20 years. “We kind of took the emphasis off that. I think being in the fifth heat was really key to getting though there. The more you run, the more the track widens out, and it was good all night. You just kind of go where they’re not. That’s kind of what I did on the restart. When the tires cycle through the heat a little bit, a little better car shines a little bit. I could make the bottom work, make the middle work, it’s tricky. You’ve got to be patient. I knew I was in a good spot. We came out of here with a decent point night and we’ll see how it goes.”

“It was just frustrating,” said Randall of his near miss. “We’ve been working so hard to stand up here every week. I feel like we’re getting close. We’re on the biggest stage of the year this week, and it just stinks. Being a rookie, I just want to succeed so well. I feel like we had one of the best cars here. I felt good really early on, and we got to him right before that red came out. That kind of messed me up, but I’m really happy about how we did. I wasn’t trying to make it easy on (Schatz). I was just trying to race my butt off. I want to be where they are. It just takes time. We’ll get better, and be there on Saturday.”

“(Kyle) Ripper had the car really good for the feature,” said Haudenschild of his crew chief. “I got a good start, and the first couple, three laps, passed quite a few cars there. I knew once I got by Donny, I needed to keep him back there. I got hung up on the 39 car, and Donny was able to get by and gap us. All in all, it was a good night. That was a really fun feature. It was the best I’ve felt in my car here in a long time.”
