Other Series Racing

After missing a couple of races due to splitting the schedule with Corey Heim, Ty Majeski returned to the Chad Bryant Racing No. 22 Ford Friday night and to no ones' surprise, returned to victory lane for the third time this season when Majeski made a gutsy call at the end to stay out on a late race pit stop.

For the second consecutive week, Michael Self (No. 25 Sinclair Lubricants Toyota) will start from the General Tire Pole for an ARCA Menards Series race in the state of Illinois. Last week Self led the field to the green at WWT Raceway in Madison, and after a fast lap in qualifying for the Bounty 150 he will lead the field to the green at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet.

Last week gave us an exciting ending to the race at Gateway as Ty Gibbs, grandson of Joe Gibbs, took the checkered flag in the last corner of the race. This week the ARCA Menards Series stays in the Illinois state as it heads north to Chicagoland Speedway.

Returning to the seat of the No. 22 Crestliner Ford Fusion for his scheduled penultimate ARCA Menards Series race of the season, Ty Majeski (@TyMajeski) seeks his third win of the season in his fifth start in Thursday night’s Bounty 150 at Chicagoland (Ill.) Speedway.

There are going to be some heavy hitters rolling into South Boston Speedway this weekend for the track’s huge mid-season Late Model classic. Familiar names like Morris, Pulliam, Sellers, Peters and McCarty.

Today’s motorsports landscape has allowed for drivers as young as 15 to come out and compete for wins in series such as the ARCA Menards Series. These youngsters come to professional racing series with a lot of experience at the wheel of a racecar, in some cases they’ve been racing since they were four years old in quarter midgets and go-karts.

It’s not too often that a professional athlete has a resurgence before their 25th birthday. After a difficult 2018 season in the NASCAR XFINITY Series, that’s exactly what’s happening in 2019 for Ty Majeski.

Ty Gibbs (No. 18 Monster Energy/Terrible Herbst/ORCA Coolers/Advance Auto Parts Toyota) scored his first career ARCA Menards Series win with a last-lap pass of Sam Mayer (No. 21 Chevy Accessories Chevrolet) in Saturday’s Day to Day Coffee 150 at World Wide Technology Raceway.

After a dominating performance to take the win last week at Madison, breakout superstar Chandler Smith and his team set their sights on the next ARCA Menards Series race at the newly renamed World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway.

On the outside, professional athletes live what most people would consider a very glamorous lifestyle. They travel all across the country – even around the world – to participate in big-time sporting events in some of the most lavish venues the human race has ever constructed. But for the participants of those sporting events, it’s not always as glamorous as it looks. For most who are involved in motorsports, the long days at the track mean there is little time left over for being a tourist. It’s usually just the race track, maybe a stop off at a local restaurant, and the hotel.
