DIRTcar Fall Nationals at Lincoln Speedway

 

English Claims First DIRTcar National Championship With Fall Nationals Victory at Lincoln Speedway

Ledford, Sheppard, Brown and Doyle also score Sunday victories as 2026 Lincoln Speedway season comes to a close

LINCOLN, IL — October 18, 2026 — The 2026 DIRTcar Fall Nationals came to a dramatic conclusion Sunday night at Lincoln Speedway, as another strong field of competitors filled the pit area for the final night of DIRTcar national points competition.

A total of 111 entries were on hand across five divisions, with national championships, season-ending bragging rights, and one final trip to victory lane all on the line.

The headline story once again came from the DIRTcar Super Late Models, where the national championship battle between Tanner English and Jason Feger came down to the final feature of the season.

Feger entered Sunday having won Saturday night's Fall Nationals opener, cutting English's championship advantage to just eight points. With the title hanging in the balance, the two contenders wasted little time getting to the front.

English and Feger both won their heat races and started near the front of the 30-lap feature. English quickly established himself at the point, but Feger remained close throughout the race, searching for any opportunity to get alongside the championship leader.

Feger, the three-time defending DIRTcar National Champion, refused to let English get away and kept the pressure on throughout the closing laps.

When the checkered flag fell, however, it was Tanner English taking his first career Lincoln Speedway victory and, with it, his first DIRTcar Super Late Model National Championship.

Feger crossed the line second by another slim margin, one night after beating English in a photo finish. Mike Spatola completed a strong weekend with a third-place finish, while Jake Little and Rich Bell rounded out the top five.

The championship capped a memorable weekend for the Super Late Models, with the two title contenders finishing first and second on both nights — Feger winning Saturday and English answering Sunday with the biggest victory of his season.

Ledford Takes Modified Finale; McKinney Earns National Championship

The Taco Bell DIRTcar Modifieds produced another entertaining feature Sunday night, with Kenny Wallace moving to the early lead from the pole.

Wallace was soon joined by Michael Ledford and Brandon Roberts, creating a three-car fight at the front of the field. Ledford and Roberts worked the lower groove while Wallace battled to maintain the top spot, at times putting the leaders three-wide.

Eventually, Ledford worked his way into the lead and began to pull away, driving to a convincing Fall Nationals finale victory.

Deece Schwartz finished second, followed by Wallace, Roberts and Rick Conoyer.

Although Saturday competitor Mike McKinney was not in attendance Sunday, his season-long body of work was enough to secure the 2026 DIRTcar Modified National Championship and the $25,000 top prize.

Sunday's Modified field featured 29 entries, adding another strong lineup to a weekend that brought some of the Midwest's best Modified racers to Lincoln Speedway.

Sheppard Completes Pro Late Model Sweep

For the second night in a row, the DIRTcar Pro Late Model feature belonged to Colby Sheppard of Williamsville, Illinois.

Sheppard started second and quickly moved to the front, building another sizable advantage as the 20-lap feature unfolded.

Just as he had Saturday night, 2026 DIRTcar Pro Late Model National Champion Braden Johnson of Taylorville, Illinois began closing the gap during the latter stages of the race.

Johnson was able to cut into Sheppard's lead, but once again the Williamsville driver had enough in reserve.

Sheppard crossed the finish line first to complete a clean sweep of the Fall Nationals weekend, with Johnson finishing second for the second consecutive night.

Chase Wilson finished third, followed by Augustine Punke and Hudson Dick.

After competing on a limited schedule throughout much of the season, Sheppard closed 2026 in impressive fashion with back-to-back Fall Nationals victories.

Brown Wins Stock Car Season Finale

The DIRTcar Stock Cars joined the Fall Nationals program Sunday night for their season finale, bringing another quality field to Lincoln Speedway.

Joe Brown of Wilmington, Illinois started third in the 20-lap feature and quickly worked his way forward.

Brown, who had already enjoyed an outstanding 2026 campaign with numerous victories across Illinois, eventually took command of the race and drove to another win to close out his season.

Jesse Simmons finished second, while Tyler Gilmour recorded a strong third-place finish. Dylon Holycross and Dennis Wernle completed the top five.

Brown also set fast time earlier in the program with a lap of 16.219 seconds.

Doyle Goes Two-for-Two in Pro Modifieds

The final feature of the 2026 Lincoln Speedway season ended much the same way Saturday night's Pro Modified feature had — with Brayden Doyle of Ashmore, Illinois out front.

After winning the opening night feature, Doyle returned Sunday and immediately showed he was again the driver to beat.

Doyle was the night's fastest qualifier with a lap of 15.587 seconds, won his heat race and started from the pole for the 20-lap feature.

From there, he controlled the race and kept the field behind him all the way to the checkered flag, completing a weekend sweep of the DIRTcar Pro Modified features.

Kade Ballinger finished second for the second consecutive night, while national championship contender Zach Whaley came home third. Kody Kovski and Brody Unzicker rounded out the top five.

Whaley's championship rival, Drake Compton, finished ninth after starting 11th.

Successful Fall Nationals Closes 2026 Lincoln Speedway Season

The 2026 DIRTcar Fall Nationals brought a record level of pre-event interest and strong fields throughout the weekend, with competitors coming from across Illinois and surrounding states.

Saturday featured 114 entries across four divisions, followed by 111 entries across five divisions Sunday.

The event also marked the first racing weekend under the new LED track lighting recently installed at Lincoln Speedway and the Logan County Fairgrounds.

From national championship drama to photo finishes, deep fields, Bennett Memorial bonus money, and two nights of competitive feature racing, the Fall Nationals provided a fitting conclusion to the 2026 Lincoln Speedway season.

With Sunday's final checkered flag, the season officially came to an end.

Lincoln Speedway and Track Enterprises would like to thank all of the fans, competitors, race teams, sponsors, employees, officials, volunteers, and everyone at the Logan County Fairgrounds who helped make the 2026 season possible.

The support throughout the year — and especially during Fall Nationals weekend — helped make another memorable season at Lincoln Speedway.

Feger Wins Photo Finish, Alexander Dominates Opening Night of DIRTcar Fall Nationals at Lincoln Speedway

 

Packed pit area produces four strong feature events as championship battles and Bennett Memorial bonuses take center stage; Fall Nationals conclude Sunday

LINCOLN, IL — October 17, 2026 — A jam-packed pit area and a strong crowd greeted competitors Saturday night as the 2026 DIRTcar Fall Nationals opened racing action at Lincoln Speedway, and the first night delivered everything expected from one of the biggest events of the season.

A total of 114 entries filled the four competing divisions, with 22 DIRTcar Super Late Models, 33 Taco Bell DIRTcar Modifieds, 38 DIRTcar Pro Modifieds and 21 DIRTcar Pro Late Models on hand.

In addition to Fall Nationals bragging rights, the Super Late Models and Modifieds were competing in the Bennett Memorial, with $50 going to the leader of every feature lap along with additional bonus money and prizes.

The headline event of the evening belonged to the DIRTcar Super Late Models, where much of the attention centered on the razor-thin national championship battle between three-time defending champion Jason Feger of Bloomington, Illinois, and points leader Tanner English.

Feger and English entered the weekend separated by only 13 points, and both positioned themselves near the front immediately Saturday night. Feger was quickest in qualifying by the narrowest of margins, turning a lap of 12.928 seconds, just one-thousandth quicker than English's 12.929.

Both won their respective heat races and started on the front row of the 30-lap feature, but it was Mike Spatola who moved to the early lead from the third starting position.

Spatola controlled the opening laps before Feger worked his way by on lap five. Once in front, Feger began to stretch his advantage and appeared to have the race under control.

A late caution changed everything.

The yellow erased Feger's advantage and put English directly back into contention for the win. The two championship rivals raced side-by-side and nose-to-tail through the closing laps, setting up a drag race to the checkered flag.

At the stripe, Feger held on by approximately one-tenth of a second in a photo finish over English, adding another Lincoln Speedway victory to his résumé and keeping his pursuit of a fourth consecutive DIRTcar National Championship very much alive.

Spatola finished third, followed by Ryan Unzicker and Daniel Adam.

With another complete program remaining Sunday, the $25,000 DIRTcar Super Late Model National Championship is still very much up for grabs.

Alexander Impresses Against Loaded Modified Field

The story in the Taco Bell DIRTcar Modified division was Collin Alexander of Clinton, Illinois.

Alexander has shown speed at Lincoln Speedway before, and on Saturday night he put everything together against one of the strongest Modified fields of the season.

The Clinton driver was fast qualifier in his group with a lap of 13.935 seconds, won his heat race and earned the pole for the 25-lap feature.

From there, Alexander was impressive.

He set the pace lap after lap while a talented field battled behind him. Ray Bollinger eventually emerged as the primary challenger and closed the gap late, but Alexander never surrendered the top spot and drove to a memorable Fall Nationals victory.

Bollinger settled for second, followed by Austin Friedman, Brayden Doyle and DIRTcar National points leader Mike McKinney, who charged from the 21st starting position to finish fifth.

Alexander's performance was even more impressive considering the depth of the 33-car field, which also included Kenny Wallace, Brian Lynn, Carter Sinkhorn, Matthew Baker, Brandon Roberts and several other accomplished Modified competitors.

Sheppard Returns to Victory Lane in Pro Late Models

Despite racing a limited schedule this season, Colby Sheppard of Williamsville, Illinois looked right at home in the DIRTcar Pro Late Model feature.

Sheppard started from the pole and quickly established himself as the driver to beat, building a sizable advantage through much of the 20-lap event.

Behind him, newly crowned DIRTcar Pro Late Model National Champion Braden Johnson began working his way forward from the fourth starting position.

Johnson gradually cut into Sheppard's advantage during the closing stages, but Sheppard had built enough of a cushion to hold him off and score the Fall Nationals victory.

Johnson finished second, followed by Ryan Miller, Austin McCarty and Brandon Sweitzer.

The victory was a strong reminder of Sheppard's ability behind the wheel despite making relatively few starts during the 2026 season.

Doyle Takes Pro Modified Victory After Late Restart

The DIRTcar Pro Modified feature also provided plenty of action, beginning with championship contender Drake Compton out front.

Compton led the early portion of the 20-lap feature before a restart opened the door for Brayden Doyle of Ashmore, Illinois.

Doyle made the move for the lead and quickly began pulling away, appearing well on his way to victory before a caution came out with only two laps remaining.

The late yellow set up one final restart and brought the field back to Doyle's bumper.

When racing resumed, the battle for second, third and fourth intensified and several of Doyle's closest pursuers tangled while fighting for position. Doyle took advantage, quickly rebuilding his margin and racing away to the checkered flag.

Kade Ballinger finished second, with Tim Luttrell third, Drew Schwartz fourth and DIRTcar Pro Modified National points leader Zach Whaley fifth.

Compton, who entered the weekend just 21 points behind Whaley in the championship standings, finished sixth, setting up another important night in the title fight Sunday.

Fall Nationals Return Sunday for Championship Finale

The 2026 DIRTcar Fall Nationals conclude Sunday, October 18, with another large field expected at Lincoln Speedway and several national championship battles still to be settled.

The DIRTcar Stock Cars join the program Sunday, giving fans five divisions of racing:

  • DIRTcar Super Late Models
  • Taco Bell DIRTcar Modifieds
  • DIRTcar Pro Late Models
  • DIRTcar Pro Modifieds
  • DIRTcar Stock Cars

Sunday's earlier schedule is designed to take advantage of another beautiful fall weather day in Lincoln.

Sunday, October 18 Schedule

1:00 PM — Pit Gate Opens
2:00 PM — Grandstands Open
3:30 PM — Driver Meeting
4:00 PM — Qualifying Hot Laps
5:00 PM — Opening Ceremonies

Grandstand admission is $25 for adults, while children 11 and under are admitted free.

With the Super Late Model championship battle between English and Feger remaining extremely tight, Whaley and Compton continuing their two-man fight for the Pro Modified crown, and another loaded field of competitors expected, the final night of the Fall Nationals promises plenty of drama.

After an opening night featuring packed pits, close finishes, championship implications and four deserving feature winners, race fans have one more opportunity to take in the action Sunday at Lincoln Speedway.

National Championship Battles Set to Come Down to DIRTcar Fall Nationals at Lincoln Speedway

Just 13 points separate Super Late Model leaders; Modified and Pro Modified titles also up for grabs October 16-17

LINCOLN, IL — The 2026 DIRTcar racing season is coming down to the wire, and several national championships could be decided during the DIRTcar Fall Nationals at Lincoln Speedway, Thursday-Saturday, October 15-17.

Following an open practice on Thursday, four national point-paying divisions — DIRTcar Super Late Models, DIRTcar Modifieds, DIRTcar Pro Late Models, and DIRTcar Pro Modifieds — will each compete in complete racing programs on both Friday and Saturday. With the opportunity to earn as many as 80 points in a feature, as many as 160 feature points are available over the two nights, putting even more importance on every position as the season reaches its conclusion.

The closest battle comes in the premier DIRTcar Super Late Model division, where just 13 points separate Tanner English and Jason Feger entering Fall Nationals weekend.

English, of Benton, Illinois, leads the standings with 2,450 points, having collected eight victories, 34 top-five finishes, and 44 top-10s in 49 races. Bloomington, Illinois driver Feger is right behind with 2,437 points after a season that has included 13 wins in 59 starts.

There is plenty at stake. The DIRTcar Super Late Model national championship carries a $25,000 top prize, while second place is worth $12,500, making the difference between first and second alone worth $12,500.

Ryan Unzicker of El Paso, Illinois, who leads the MARS Late Model championship standings, sits third with 2,313 points. Mike Spatola of Manhattan, Illinois is fourth at 2,296, while Zanesville, Ohio’s Todd Brennan rounds out the top five with 2,230.

The DIRTcar Modified championship is also far from settled.

Plainfield, Illinois driver Mike McKinney leads with 2,197 points, but Owensboro, Kentucky’s Cole Falloway is only 42 points back at 2,155. With two complete nights of racing remaining, that margin leaves plenty of opportunity for the championship to change hands at Lincoln.

McKinney has put together a tremendous season with 19 victories in 51 races, while Falloway has 13 wins and 35 top-five finishes in 45 starts.

Pontiac, Illinois driver Michael Ledford sits third with 2,060 points, followed by Dillon Nusbaum of Warsaw, Indiana at 2,014 and Kewanee, Illinois driver Ray Bollinger at 1,953.

Like the Super Late Models, the DIRTcar Modified national champion will receive $25,000, with $12,500 going to the runner-up.

Another championship that could come down to the final laps of the season is the DIRTcar Pro Modified title.

Zach Whaley of Hillsboro, Missouri leads Drake Compton of Lexington, Illinois by just 21 points, 1,499 to 1,478.

Whaley has been remarkably consistent, recording 19 victories, 26 top-five finishes, and 27 top-10s in 27 races. Compton has been equally impressive with 16 wins, 24 top-fives, and 26 top-10s in 29 starts.

Behind the two championship contenders are Jake Montgomery of East Peoria, Illinois with 1,277 points, Drew Schwartz of Ashmore, Illinois with 1,155, and Jimmy Cummins at 1,127.

With the separation between Whaley and Compton so small, the Pro Modified championship has the potential to be decided by only a handful of positions over the two Fall Nationals features.

The DIRTcar Pro Late Model championship picture is considerably different at the top. Taylorville, Illinois driver Braden Johnson has built a commanding advantage with 1,394 points, 173 ahead of Lincoln’s Ryan Miller.

Johnson has enjoyed a dominant season, winning 14 of his 20 races while recording 19 top-five finishes. With the championship appearing secure, he’ll look to put an exclamation point on the season with two more strong performances at Lincoln Speedway.

The battle behind him, however, is extremely close.

Miller holds second with 1,221 points, only 13 ahead of Chase Wilson of Hoopeston, Illinois at 1,208. Another tight fight is taking place for fourth, where Monticello’s Hudson Dick leads Jacob Doolen by only eight points, 988 to 980.

The DIRTcar Pro Late Model national championship carries a $12,500 top prize.

While the DIRTcar Stock Car national championship will already be decided before Lincoln’s event, many of the division’s top competitors are expected for the Saturday, October 17 season finale. The Stock Cars join Saturday’s program, bringing a fifth division to the Fall Nationals finale.

Friday night’s program will carry additional significance for the Super Late Models and Modifieds with the Bennett Memorial. The special bonus program pays $50 to the leader of every feature lap in both divisions. A driver leading every lap could earn an additional $1,500 in the Super Late Model feature or $1,250 in the Modified feature, in addition to other bonuses and prizes. Following Friday’s racing, fans, drivers, and teams are invited to a post-race party behind the grandstands featuring live music from AllNighter.

Fall Nationals Weekend

The weekend begins Thursday, October 15 with open practice for competitors. Friday, October 16 features the first complete racing program for the Super Late Models, Modifieds, Pro Late Models, and Pro Modifieds, while all four divisions return Saturday along with the Stock Cars. Friday’s live racing program is scheduled to begin at 6:00 PM Central. Complete daily schedules, including pit and grandstand opening times, are available in the official competitor guide.
