Memorialized!

Memorial day provides a reminder of remembrance for our nations finest. A long weekend filled with celebration and thanks. Many tracks across the nation honored our homeland's veterans with special presentations. Drivers who stood before the crowds and received winning accolades were quick to extend their appreciation for the service men and women who provide our ability to race. For this, we are thankful.

One such winner has persevered through a quick learning curve and earned his very first win. Jayce Jenkins powered his way to the lead at Warren County Speedway with his STALLARD SST. Breaking the seal on what we believe will be a breakout summer for Jayce and the Jenkins team. We couldn't be more proud of his team and ours working together to achieve their goal.

The legendary Zemco racing team added yet another Williams Grove Speedway win to an illustrious list with Lucas Wolfe at the wheel. The Eastern PA based dealer of SCHNEE chassis proved the stack tube cars are not only consistent, but underutilized.

Clint Garner is understood to be the most dominant 360 in the Knoxville pit area. Clint and his SCHNEE chassis continue to dominate every Saturday night. This marks his third feature win of the season, and the 24th in his career, second all-time with the 360’s at this historic oval.

Tony Bruce Jr. united with Danny King and the iconic #88 EAGLE to clinch the win with the NSL/NCRA 360 series at 81 Speedway. TBJ advanced from his sixth starting position to second place before a caution with six laps remaining. Bruce Jr. passed C.J. Johnson, who led the majority of the 25-lap main event, for the lead en route to his first win with the series. EAGLE cars finished in the top two positions.

Mark Dobmeier dominated River Cities Speedway by having to go to the rear with damage midway through the feature and came back to win it. The familiar #13 kicked off the weekend with a second win in as many weeks and continues to prove his EAGLE can fly.

For the first time in his career, Rico Abreu entered action at Wayne County Speedway, joining the All Star Circuit of Champions for the second leg of their Memorial Day weekend swing through northern Ohio. The California native made his trip to Orrville, Ohio, worthwhile, scoring $5,000 and a third career All Star Circuit of Champions victory, in his EAGLE, in front of a near standing-room only crowd.

Seth Bergman led a string of EAGLE's to the line at Badlands Motor Speedway with the MSTS 360 Sprint Cars. Seth stood proudly in victory lane representing EMi along side a podium filled with other EAGLE drivers; Tim Kaeding and Justin Henderson respectively.

Jake Martens was one iron man who braved two races in a single day at Wakeeny Speedway with the URSS. It was Jake's first win with the series.

Rod Henning has proven lethal while teamed up with the Dorsett racing team. This week it was the Paragon Speedway that provided the place for his latest win. Rod's HENCHCRAFT beat a stellar field of Lightning Sprints.

Rick Hench, founder of HENCHCRAFT, visited Tri-State Speedway and wheeled his own car to a win against the same group of MSA Lightning Sprints.

Jared Gundersen traveled south from Washington to Sunset Speedway Park in Oregon to capitalize yet again in his HENCHCRAFT car. Great drive by Gundy as the season is only beginning. Brock Lemley claimed the opening night of the weekend, also in a HENCHCRAFT.

Other HENCHCRAFT triumphs included Bill Dunham at Merrittt Speedway in Michigan and Seth Hespe at Deming Speedway making it a HENCHCRAFT sweep of the Northwest.
