Elliott Leads Chevrolet with Third-Place Finish; Larson Maintains Points Lead at Phoenix Raceway
 
A late-race gamble by crew chief, Alan Gustafson, gave Chase Elliott prime track position for the final restart that ultimately led to a strong third-place finish in the Freeway Insurance 500 at Phoenix Raceway. The result marked the No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet team’s seventh top-five finish of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season and his sixth top-five finish at the desert oval.

It was a turbulent day for the reigning champions Kyle Larson and the No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet team, but leaning on the points cushion he carried to the west coast, Larson managed to maintain his points lead with the team heading to Talladega Superspeedway with a five-point lead.

RACE RECAP:

Stage One:

William Byron led Chevrolet’s Chase contenders in yesterday’s qualifying session at Phoenix Raceway, earning a top-10 starting position to kick off the seventh race of the NASCAR Cup Series’ title run. Taking the green flag for the opening stage, Byron hovered around ninth for what built into a 43-lap stretch en route to the first caution of the day. With a mix of pit strategy already seen down pit road, the Rudy Fugle-led team were among the group that called for a two-tire stop, ultimately gifting his driver a spot on the front row for the restart and a 10-lap run to the stage end. Byron put up a valiant fight during a three-wide battle for the lead within the first couple of laps after the restart, a stint that saw him lead his first lap of the day. Despite losing the battle to those on four fresh Goodyear tires, Byron was able to muscle his way into a solid sixth-place points-earning effort to conclude Stage One.

Stage Two:

A mix bag of strategies once again saw Byron lineup 11th, the third car on a four-tire strategy, for the start of Stage Two. On an alternate two-tire strategy, the Randall Burnett-led No. 88 team made the jump up into the top-five to lead the Bowtie brigade to the restart and the next 125-lap run. Zilisch’s teammate, Ross Chastain, had a set of four fresh Goodyear tires on his Chevrolet for the start of the stage, ultimately enabling him to drive up into the seventh position during the beginning laps of the stage. While on a tire deficit from his teammate, the rookie held his ground through much of the green flag run, staying within the top-nine to give Trackhouse Racing a solid showing en route to the first green flag pit cycle of the afternoon. The cycle kicked off on Lap 122, right at the halfway mark of the stage, with crew chief Brandon McSwain calling his driver to pit road six laps into the cycle from the sixth running position. A quick green flag pit cycle saw Chastain, along with his Team Chevy teammate, Chase Elliott, reenter and settle into the top-10 as the green flag laps continued to count down in the stage. Taking his turn in the top position for the Chevrolet camp, Elliott sat in the ninth position when a caution flew with 29 laps to go in the stage for Austin Dillon, who’s early top-15 campaign came to an early end when a flat tire led his No. 3 Chevrolet into the wall. With a four-tire and fuel call by crew chief Alan Gustafson under the caution, an one-position gain in the race off pit road put Elliott in the fourth row for a 22-lap run to the end of the stage. Overall happy with the gains in the balance of his No. 9 Chevrolet, Elliott remained as the manufacturer’s leading driver when he took the second green-white checkered flag in the 10th position.

Final Stage:

With a stellar three-position gain in the race off pit road during the stage break, Elliott found the fourth row once again to lead Chevrolet to the green flag for the final stage of the race. While a long green flag run took over much of the final stage, Elliott remained a steady fixture within the top-10. Sitting in the ninth position, a caution flew for his teammate, Kyle Larson, whose already turbulent day came to an end when he suffered a flat tire with 29 laps to go in the race. Gustafson was one of just three crew chiefs that made the gamble to stay out during the caution. The call moved Elliott back up into a spot on the front row to lead the field to the restart for the final 19 laps around the desert oval. While on a tire deficit, Elliott showed the strength of his Chevrolet as he managed to hold onto the third position to go on and lead the manufacturer to the checkered flag and claim his seventh top-five finish of the season.

Post-Race Driver Quotes:

Ross Chastain, No. 1 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet

Finished: 9th

“We put together a solid weekend at Phoenix in the Busch Light Chevrolet. We stayed towards the front in track position all day and made small adjustments. We went through the range of weather from starting overcast and cooler to the sun coming out and it really heating up. It feels good to leave Phoenix with a ninth-place finish and have a good day overall.”

Austin Dillon, No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet

Sidelined by damage sustained from a tire issue during Stage Two.

Finished: 37th

“Unfortunate ending for the No. 3 Dow Arm & Hammer Chevrolet at Phoenix Raceway. We had a strong Chevrolet and I’m really proud of the work the No. 3 team put into giving us a good car this weekend. We were going forward, passing cars and having fun. We cut a right-rear tire in Stage Two and ended up in the wall. I wish I would have recognized that a tire was going down sooner, but I just thought it was rubber build up or something, and at that point, there was nothing we could do. We had too much damage to come back from. We’ll make notes and regroup before going to Talladega next weekend.”

Kyle Larson, No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet

Sidelined by damage sustained from a tire issue in the final stage.

Finished: 34th

“This No. 5 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet wasn’t going to quit today. We never found the improvements we needed, so that was a bummer. I didn’t expect to be good, but I didn’t expect to be that bad either. It wasn’t a lot of fun today, but we were just trying to salvage what we could of the day. We’ll go to Talladega (Superspeedway) and try to forget about today and get back after it. We’ve done well at the superspeedway’s, so hopefully we can execute, get some points and keep ourselves in the hunt.”

Daniel Suarez, No. 7 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet

Finished: 7th

“We had a little bit of everything today, good and bad pit stops, and some challenges we had to overcome. We fought all day, and this No. 7 Freeway Insurance team never gave up. The guys kept working, and we were able to fight our way back and get another top 10 this season. I’m proud of this team and the effort everyone put in.”

Chase Elliott, No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet

Finished: 3rd

How did you hang on there at the end?

“Honestly, I was really surprised. I thought more people would stay out. I’m curious to see if those guys had scuffs, or if they had already burnt their scuffs earlier and had stickers on. In our situation, the call was going to be two tires and they were going to be two scuffs. That didn’t really do a whole lot for me in my head at that point in time. I thought that maybe if we could get a couple rows of a buffer, we’d be okay. But I’m really proud of this No. 9 Kelley Blue Book Chevrolet team for putting together a solid day. It’s been a while since we’ve had one, so that was nice. We made some legitimate improvements, I thought, which was encouraging. The No. 45 (Tyler Reddick) got me there through (turns) one and two on the restart, but to settle in and be able to hold the rest of those guys off, I thought it was solid. I’m looking forward to finishing these next three races off strong and be more prepared and ready for next year.”

Austin Hill, No. 33 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet

Finished: 24th

“Our FICO Chevrolet was decent in the first two stages and we were consistently a top-20, 21st-place car. Our car fired off free on entry and exit, tight rolling in the center. We were burning the right rear tire off it but once we made an adjustment, the car reacted positively. Right after our green flag stop, I found something with a line that definitely worked better. I just needed to be tightened up in Turns 1 and 2. Unfortunately the next adjustment didn’t fix the problem and netted out negative for our balance. We flipped back and forth from loose to tight in the final stage. Glad we finished inside the top-25 when it’s all said and done, and we can learn a few things from today to help in the future.”

Connor Zilisch, No. 88 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet

Finished: 20th

“It was a decent day at Phoenix Raceway for this No. 88 Jockey 150th Anniversary Chevrolet team. I thought we fired off the race really well. We did a good job in qualifying to get the car where we needed it to be, but it just didn’t quite keep up with the track as the race went on. It started to slip a little bit there near the end. We still recovered for a top-20 and a decent finish to look forward to Talladega (Superspeedway).”

Scelzi Serves Up Triple Dipper To Close Out 2026 Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing Season

Spire Motorsports Driver Claims Runner-Up Finish in First-Season Title Run

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (Oct. 17, 2026) – The 2026 Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing season concluded with a two-night show at Texas Motor Speedway. Spire Motorsports driver Gio Scelzi entered the weekend just 45 points behind defending champion Rico Abreu. The 24-year-old driver of the No. 77 Chili’s sprint car set quick time in Friday’s qualifying session en route to his fourth-career High Limit win, and third of the season, to narrow the points gap to just 36 entering Saturday’s finale. Scelzi started on the pole for Saturday’s feature and led all 30 laps to close out the season with back-to-back-to-back victories.

The 2026 season marked the first full-time High Limit endeavor for both Scelzi and Spire Motorsports, resulting in a series-leading 43 top-10 finishes and wins in the Bob Weikert Memorial at Port Royal (Pa.) Speedway and the Heartland of America Showdown at Lakeside (Kan.) Speedway.

“Hats off to Eric (Prutzman), the car has been so good. It was really cool to get these wins with Jeff (Dickerson) here and in the home state of Chili’s,” said Scelzi. “These guys do all the work to get the cars prepared flawlessly. Eric has done a great job leading this team, teaching these guys how to prep. It’s hard to be upset after ending the season with four wins. We dug ourselves a hole out west, so it was a little too late but we had a lot of speed these last few races. I wish there was more racing left this season, but we have a whole off season to get ready for next year to chase another title.”

Spire Motorsports announced its plans to contest a full-time Interstate Batteries High Limit Series effort last December and that Scelzi and celebrated crew chief Eric Prutzman would front the plans with support from Chili’s® Grill & Bar. The pairing of Scelzi and Prutzman have combined for four wins, 29 top fives and 47 top 10s to date in their first season working together.

“This is such an incredible moment for Spire Motorsports,” said Dickerson. “Eric and Gio have done such a good job this year putting the team together and working through all of the little things that it takes to put a competitive team together. We believed in them from the beginning and knew that if we stuck to the plan, we would have a successful first season. We have a good future ahead of us and I think everyone at Spire is looking forward to next year.”

Scelzi, the son of former NHRA Top Fuel and Funny Car champion Gary Scelzi, became the youngest winner in World of Outlaws Sprint Car history at 16-years-old, clinching victory in the prestigious National Open at Williams Grove (Pa.) Speedway. One year later, he became the youngest winner in Knoxville (Iowa) Raceway history.

After a short stint in pavement racing, Scelzi returned to his open-wheel roots, competing with both the World of Outlaws and the All-Star Circuit of Champions. He claimed the World of Outlaws’ Kevin Goebrecht Rookie of the Year in 2023 and boasted five wins, 48 top fives and 130 top 10s over three years. He closed out the out the 2025 season for the injured Tyler Courtney in Clauson Marshall Racing’s iconic No. 7BC.

Prutzman, one of the most celebrated mechanics in the sport, began his career as a Car Chief for Craig Dollansky in 2006. He went on to work for Tony Bruce Jr. from 2007-2008 and finished the 2008 season with Daryn Pittman at Titan Racing. From 2009-2015, he served as a Tire Specialist for Donny Schatz at Tony Stewart Racing and registered four World of Outlaws championships.

Prutzman earned his first Crew Chief role in 2016 with Joey Saldana at Roth Motorsports, leading the team to four World of Outlaws wins. He transitioned to Kasey Kahne Racing in 2017, calling the shots on Daryn Pittman’s No. 9 before joining Brad Sweet’s No. 49 program in 2018. Over the next seven seasons, the duo became one of sprint car racing’s most potent pairings, collecting 66 World of Outlaws wins, 10 High Limit victories, five consecutive World of Outlaws championships (2019–2023) and the 2024 High Limit title. Their success led to multiple jewel victories including the 2018 Knoxville Nationals and 2019 King’s Royal.

Prutzman’s hard work earned him Crew Chief of the Year honors with the World of Outlaws in 2019 and 2023, and High Limit in 2024. With six national championships and 84 national-tour victories on his résumé, Prutzman brings elite-level experience to Spire Motorsports’ No. 77 Chili’s Sprint Car program.

How to Choose Tesla Model Y Accessories You’ll Actually Use

By
SM
-

Shopping for a Model Y accessory usually starts innocently enough.

You look for one small thing—maybe a tray for the center console—and suddenly you have tabs open for floor liners, phone mounts, trunk organizers, sunshades, screen protectors and several products you didn’t know existed ten minutes ago.

There is no shortage of choice. The harder part is working out which upgrades will still feel useful six months from now.

A better way to shop is to ignore the size of the accessory market for a moment and start with the car you actually drive every day.

Start With the Little Things That Keep Annoying You

The accessories that tend to stick around are usually the ones that solve a problem you have already noticed.

Maybe sunglasses and charging cables keep disappearing into the center console. Maybe grocery bags move around in the trunk every time you take a corner. If you often arrive home after dark, the cargo area may feel dimmer than you would like. And if rain, mud, sand or pet hair are part of normal life, keeping the interior clean may be higher on the list than any cosmetic upgrade.

Thinking this way changes the question from “What can I add to my Tesla?” to “What would make using this car a little easier?”

If you want to see what is available before narrowing things down, browsing a dedicated collection of Tesla Model Y accessories can help you compare storage, protection, lighting and everyday convenience upgrades in one place.

Check the Exact Model Before You Order

This is the part that is easy to underestimate.

Tesla changes interiors over time, and accessories that look almost identical online do not always share the same dimensions, mounting points or clearances. A center-console organizer made for one interior revision may sit badly in another. The same applies to floor mats, screen accessories, sunshades and storage pieces.

That matters even more with newer versions such as the Model Y Juniper, where some parts designed around earlier interiors may no longer be a direct fit.

Before ordering, check the model year, interior version and installation location. For accessories mounted near the dashboard, vents or A-pillar, it is also worth confirming whether the design is intended for left-hand-drive or right-hand-drive cars.

A couple of minutes spent checking fitment is much easier than repacking something that almost fits.

Storage Is Usually a Safe Place to Start

Tesla’s minimalist cabin is part of the appeal, but large open compartments are not always ideal for the small things people carry every day.

A simple organizer can give sunglasses, cards, keys and cables a proper place without making the interior feel cluttered. The same idea works in the trunk. If you regularly carry groceries, detailing supplies, charging equipment or small tools, dividing the available space can stop everything from migrating across the cargo area while you drive.

Interior storage accessories arranged for a Tesla Model Y

The best storage upgrades are often the ones you stop noticing. You simply know where your things are when you need them.

Protection Is Not Exciting, but It Gets Used

Some of the least glamorous accessories are also the easiest to justify.

Floor protection is a good example. Wet shoes, mud, beach sand, spilled drinks and pet hair are much easier to deal with on a removable liner than on factory carpeting.

All-weather floor liners fitted inside a Tesla Model Y

That does not mean every surface in the car needs a cover. Think about where wear actually happens in your own Model Y.

A family car used for school runs and weekend trips will have different needs from a Model Y that spends most of its life commuting between two garages. Someone who carries a dog may care about completely different areas again.

Protect the places that actually take abuse, not the places an accessory seller tells you should worry about.

Convenience Accessories Have to Earn Their Space

Phone mounts are a good example of an accessory that makes sense for some owners and adds very little for others.

The Model Y already has a large center display and built-in phone charging. For many drivers, that is enough. Others still prefer having a phone visible in a fixed position for navigation, calls or quick access.

If you do use a mount, placement matters more than the feature list. Something that blocks the main display, sits awkwardly in your line of sight or becomes difficult to reach is not really making the car more convenient.

The same test works for tables, lighting and other cabin upgrades: how often will you use it, and does it make anything else harder?

Simple Installation Is Often a Good Sign

For everyday accessories, removable usually beats permanent.

Drop-in trays, fitted liners, clip-on mounts and plug-in lighting can be installed without changing the car and removed again if your needs change.

Products that require drilling, cutting trim, permanent adhesive or modification to factory wiring deserve more thought. That does not automatically make them bad products, but the benefit should justify the extra commitment.

It is also worth checking that an accessory does not interfere with pedals, airbags, vents, visibility or the center screen.

An accessory should disappear into normal use, not become another thing you have to work around.

Price Is Only Part of the Decision

The cheapest option is not always bad, and a higher price does not automatically mean better quality.

For model-specific accessories, fit often matters more than a small difference in price. A basic tray that sits flush and stays quiet is more useful than a complicated one that rattles. A floor liner that follows the shape of the footwell is better than a bargain set that curls at the edges.

Look at the details you will notice after the novelty wears off: material, fit, cleaning, installation and how easily the accessory can be removed.

Buy for the Way You Use Your Model Y

There is no single accessory list that makes sense for every owner.

A daily commuter might care most about cabin storage and quick phone access. A family may put washable surfaces and cargo organization first. Someone who parks outdoors may get more value from sun protection, while a frequent road-tripper may care more about trunk organization, lighting and charging equipment.

That is probably the easiest way to make sense of the Model Y aftermarket.

Start with the small frustrations you already have. Fix those first. Drive the car for a while, then decide what is still missing.

A Model Y does not become better because it has more accessories. The good ones are usually the pieces that quietly become part of the routine.

Anthony Autiello Returns to Victory Lane in Masters Cup

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (October 17, 2026) – Brady Golan earned his eighth win of the season in Formula Regional Americas Championship (FR Americas) competition, winning Race 1 at Barber Motorsports Park on Saturday evening. The 2026 Champion took advantage of a mid-race restart to capture the lead and paced the field to the checkered flag.

Notes of Interest:

  • Brady Golan earned his eighth win of his championship campaign. During tomorrow’s Year-End Awards Celebration, Golan will be honored and presented with a $100,000 check as part of the champion’s prize.
  • After leading early, Kekai Hauanio finished second in Race 1 at Barber Motorsports Park to record his ninth podium of the season.
  • Cooper Shipman earned his ninth podium of the season with a third-place result in Race 1.
  • Anthony Autiello earned his fourth win in the 2026 Masters Cup Championship season.
  • With Kevin Janzen finishing second and the race scoring just half points, Whitney Strickland clinched the FR Americas Masters Cup title.
  • Earning his first pole of the season, Kekai Hauanio (No. 29 N-E-Where Transport / Crosslink Motorsports Ligier JS F3) led the field to the starting lights with Brady Golan (No. 40 Toney Driver Development Ligier JS F3) to his outside. With a solid launch off the line, Hauanio took control of the race, but his pace slowed a few turns later, as yellow flags were displayed and the safety car picked up the field.

When the race went back to green, Golan had another shot at the lead, passing Hauanio as they raced through Turn 6. It seemed like Hauanio might be able to close in on Golan’s gearbox, but the Crosslink Motorsports driver wasn’t able to retake the lead and followed Golan to the checkered flag.

Crossing the finish line, it was Golan, followed by Hauanio and Cooper Shipman (No. 10 Driven Dynamix / Kiwi Motorsport Ligier JS F3).

“I got a pretty atrocious start, but then I was able to charge back up after that on the restart. So, it was a pretty solid day,” said Golan atop the podium. “I have to thank everybody on the Red 40; it’s been amazing. The championship is awesome, and to still have some races left to go and be able to win more is even better. I’m really happy with those guys. Thanks to everybody at TDD, everybody at Marina, everybody at Attire, and my parents.”

In the Masters Cup Championship, Anthony Autiello (No. 07 Hope For The Warriors / Momentum Motorsports Ligier JS F3) returned to the top step of the podium after making a late-race pass on Kevin Janzen (No. 24 US Power Group / Data Center Solutions / Crosslink Motorsports Ligier JS F3). Whitney Strickland (No. 21 TF Companies / Hillenburg Motorsports Ligier JS F3) was not classified on the final results after contact on the opening lap brought an early end to his day.

“The visibility was really, really tough today [after oil dry was put down on the track],” said Autiello in Victory Lane. “So, it was super hairy. I thought that I’d keep a little distance, stay safe, and I figured it was going to be a war of attrition, then Kevin [Janzen] opened the door for me. I was able to pass him on the corner going onto the main straight; it was a clean fight. So, thank you to him for a nice, clean race today.”

FR Americas will close out the season tomorrow at Barber Motorsports Park with Race 2 at 12 p.m. CT. Live timing and scoring for the race will be available on the Race Monitor app. Additional news and updates from the weekend will be posted on the series’ Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (October 18, 2026) – Clemente Huerta Raab scored his first win in Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.) competition, taking the Race 1 victory at Barber Motorsports Park on Saturday afternoon. The win marked his first in a formula car and his first since the South American Championship in karting.

Notes of Interest:

  • After 10 podiums, Clemente Huerta Raab finally captured his first F4 U.S. win in his second season of competition. The victory marked the first in a single-seater racecar for the Chilean racer. Just last season he finished third in the very same round at Barber.
  • 2026 Champion Gastón Irazú scored his 15th podium of the season. With just one ‘not classified’ finish this season, Irazú stood on the podium in every other race this year.
  • Tomorrow, Irazú has the chance to tie the F4 U.S. all-time win record, as he races for his 10th career win in the championship.
  • With a hard-fought third-place finish in Race 1 at Barber Motorsports Park, Ayden Kohut earned his first career podium.
  • Kicking off the season-finale weekend, Caleb Campbell (No. 68 Steele Auto Group / Kiwi Motorsport Ligier JS F422) started from the pole and led the early laps. Gastón Irazú (No. 27 Elia Group / Baly / Canal 4 / Ancap / Champagne Racing Ligier JS F422) started the event in fourth, but it didn’t take long for the 2026 champion to work through the field, first overtaking Fernando Rivera (No. 16 Crosslink Motorsports Ligier JS F422) and then making his way around Clemente Huerta Raab (No. 17 Kiwi Motorsport Ligier JS F422). From there, Irazú locked his focus on Campbell and passed to take the race lead on the next lap. Campbell tried to challenge, but couldn’t find a way around the Uruguayan, instead falling into the grips of his Kiwi Motorsport teammate, Huerta Raab.

Making his way around Campbell to take second, Huerta Raab then turned his focus to Irazú. Trailing for a few laps, Huerta Raab took a chance going around the inside in Turn 6 and made it stick, taking the race lead with just over five minutes left on the clock.

It was smooth sailing all the way to the finish line for the Chilean driver, and as the checkered flag waved, Huerta Raab finished first, followed by Irazú and Ayden Kohut (No. 18 The Builders Source / The Genie Company / Kiwi Motorsport Ligier JS F422). Kohut survived a race of attrition, starting fifth and steadily advancing as others ran into challenges in the all-green race.

“It’s been a long time since I won the South American Championship in karting,” said Huerta after climbing from the car. “It’s been a long time since I’ve been on the top step of the podium. It feels great. It feels like you’re on top of the world. I want to thank my team—Kiwi Motorsport, my dad, my parents, my family, my uncle came here as a surprise. It was a tough race.”

F4 U.S. is back on track tomorrow at 10:25 a.m. CT for its final race of the season. Live timing and scoring from the event will be available on Race Monitor, with additional news and updates posted on the series’ Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

  • Starting from the pole, Beckham Jacir (No. 7 Stonica / Bell / OMP / P1DOKS / Behind the Wheel / Champagne Racing Ligier JS F4) pulled into the point position as soon as the lights went out. Behind him, third-place starter Ava Hanssen (No. 26 One Powersports / Chiropractic Center of Elkhorn / NGK / Badger Mats Ligier JS F4) pulled wheel to wheel to challenge second-place starter, Lazaro Bainotti (No. 11 Fundacion Fangio Rus seguros Cordoba deportes / Speed Factory Ligier JS F4), but Bainotti held on to the position as they raced through Turn 1. While the front three settled into position, Gen. 2 drivers Edward Kennedy (No. 30 MLT Motorsports Ligier JS F422), Jack Speth (No. 07 Kiwi Motorsport Ligier JS F422) and Ben Ramirez (No. 32 U.S. Air Force / RASE Motorsports Ligier JS F422) worked through the field, with Kennedy passing Jacir to take the race lead before the completion of the fifth lap.

Kennedy, the Gen. 2 championship leader, had opened up more than a five-second gap before a full-course caution regrouped the field. With everyone stacked up nose to stern and less than three minutes left on the clock, the two-lap dash to the finish line teed up plenty of drama before the checkered flag waved. Racing toward the white flag, Bainotti went wide exiting Turn 17, dropping a wheel off the racing surface, allowing Hanssen, AJ Abdullah (No. 21 Freedom Detox / Grid State Digital / Berg Racing Ligier JS F4) and Alexander Savage (No. 33 KymaBoats.com / Triple Aim Medical Solutions / Nature Coast Health Care / G Tech Motorsports Ligier JS F4) to drive by. In the Gen. 2 class, Kennedy led as they took the white flag, but Speth wasn’t going down without a fight. Applying pressure through Turn 1, he hit his marks for the next few turns before sending it into Turn 6 to overtake the lead.

As the checkered flag waved, Speth led Kennedy in the Gen. 2 class, while Jacir led Hanssen and Abdullah in the Gen. 1 class.

“It was a very eventful race,” said Speth atop the podium. “I tried to put the pressure on in Turn 1, but it didn’t work, so I just focused on the exit of 2 and 3 and figured I had nothing to lose going into the hairpin. So, I decided that I’d either go out with a bang or just go home—go big or go home. I sent it into the hairpin and it stuck. [The championship] is all coming down to Sunday. I have to thank my mom—she finally made it out this weekend—my dad, and the entire Kiwi Motorsport team, especially Brock and Jackson.”

“Barber Motorsports Park is a great track,” said Jacir after climbing from the car. “It’s definitely one of my favorites. Compared to this morning’s qualifying, the weather was a little hotter. I knew tire management was always going to be a part of the game in this race. We had a good start and took over the pace. There was a full-course yellow, so I tried to keep my tires clean during that. We didn’t get the best restart after that, either, so I had to do some defending, but we got it, though. It was a good race.”

Ligier JFC will contest its final round of the 2026 season tomorrow at 9:10 a.m. CT. Live timing and scoring will be available on the Race Monitor app, with additional news and updates posted on the series’ Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Jesse Love and the No. 2 Whelen Chevrolet Team Earn Pole, Sweep Stages, and Capture Victory at Phoenix Raceway to Take Over Points Lead

Finish: 1st
Start: 1st
Points: 1st

“These are the types of days that our Whelen team prepares for, not just dreams of. I have a great group of people around me that prepare me to be in these situations and stay calm, cool, and collected. I’ve learned from a lot of mistakes that allow me to execute at a high level, especially at a track like this that feels like I’ve been here a million times. This is my favorite racetrack, and I have been coming here my whole life as a west coast kid. I was having to drive a lot over the tire to make any sort of lap time there at the end. I’m grateful to the Lord above for putting great people behind me and glad to win another one for RCR and ECR. It’s been a tough year for us, so grateful to be in this situation. I have a great pit crew who just mauls everyone on pit road every week and makes my job a lot easier. Proud of this whole group.” -Jesse Love

Top-15 Result for Austin Hill and the No. 21 Titan Cattle Company Chevrolet at Phoenix Raceway

Finish: 15th
Start: 10th
Points: 9th

“Not a good race for our Titan Cattle Company Chevrolet. I made a mistake and sped on pit road and then we fought the balance with a lot of various things. I was loose in one moment, tight in the next. Could slide the fronts then chatter shortly after. Everything that you could have in a race car that you don’t want, happened to us tonight. We had more speed than 15th though. Not sure where we would have finished but it probably would have been somewhere in the top-10. Just sloppy. We have to do a better job, on my end with certain things and in general as a team. We have to figure out what the miss is here at Phoenix. That’s the unfortunate thing about this place. It has been good to me at times and then there have been nights like tonight where we run 15th.” -Austin Hill

-
  • Max Reaves (No. 18 Cook Out Toyota) withstood an overtime restarts and some interference from Mother Nature to score the win in Saturday night’s ARCA Menards West Desert Diamond Casino West Valley 100 at Phoenix Raceway. Reaves was leading when he made contact with Andrew Chapman (No. 55 High Point Racing / Racecar Factory Ford) as he was coming to complete lap 98, which sent the race into overtime. On the first overtime attempt, Helio Meza (No. 28 Alessandro’s / Hermanos Media Chevrolet) and Jade Avedisian (No. 70 Mobil 1 Toyota) came together with Meza’s night ending alongside the turn one wall. Before the race could be restarted, a light sprinkle started to fall which turned into a persistent sprinkle, dampening the racing surface and forcing ARCA Menards Series officials to end the race under caution.
  • Reaves’s victory came in the final ARCA Menards Series start for Joe Gibbs Racing. Reaves scored 13 ARCA Menards Series platform wins in his two partial seasons with the team and he finished second in the ARCA Menards Series East standings in 2026. JGR was the 2026 ARCA Menards Series owner’s champion, the fourth time in seven years the time won the series’ owner’s title.
  • Taylor Reimer (No. 82 Fre Nicotine Pouches Chevrolet) led 24 laps, the first laps she’s led in her ARCA Menards Series platform career. She was leading at the race’s midway point but gave the lead up to Reaves on the restart. She could chase him down under long green runs, but her charge to the front was stymied by repeated cautions in the second half of the race.
  • Mason Massey (No. 19 Mongoose Power Solutions Chevrolet) capitalized on the repeated late-race restarts to finish third. He was able to gain four points in the ARCA Menards Series standings on leader Trevor Huddleston (No. 50 High Point Racing / Racecar Factory Ford), who finished seventh, allowing him to leapfrog over tenth-place finisher Robbie Kennealy (No. 1 Jan’s Towing Ford) into second in the series standings.
  • Huddleston now leads by 39 points over Massey headed into the ARCA Menards West finale at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in two weeks. Huddleston’s wife Nastasia delivered the couple’s first child, daughter Harley Kay, on Wednesday; Trevor did not arrive at the track until about 30 minutes before the start of practice on Friday evening.
  • Gavan Boschele (No. 25 Toyota Racing Toyota) qualified fourth but was forced to start at the tail of the field due to unapproved adjustments after qualifying. Boschele quickly worked his way through the field to finish where he qualified in fourth.
  • Kasey Kleyn (No. 20 Thaemart Farms Toyota) made the most of his first start with Nitro Motorsports to finish fifth. It was Kleyn’s second career West start; he finished sixth driving for team owner Mike Naake at Tri-City Raceway in 2024.
  • Reimer was one of six female drivers to start, setting an all-time ARCA Menards West record for most female drivers in a single race. She was joined by sixth-place finisher Hailie Deegan (No. 16 Monster Chevrolet), Mia Lovell (No. 15 Pine Health Toyota), who came home in eighth, Avedisian, who finished ninth, Dystany Spurlock (No. 66 Charles Schwab Bank Toyota), who finished 14th, and Quinn Davis (No. 41 Jan’s Towing Ford), who finished 26th after a late-race accident.
  • There were four lead changes among two drivers. Reaves lead 90 laps; Reimer led 24.
  • There were six cautions for 37 laps. The race was extended to 114 laps and officially ended under caution.

TOYOTA QUOTES

BRANDON JONES, No. 20 Menards/Monster Energy Toyota GR Supra, Joe Gibbs Racing

Finishing Position: 6th

You had to find track position after the strategy call early in the race to take rain tires. Why was that call made and how did it affect your day?

“Certainly it showed it was the wrong decision. He (crew chief Sam McCauley) sounded really confident in the decision. We never even talked about if people stayed out in that aspect. I was kind of confused, I saw when pit road open everyone just stay up and I kind of asked one more time if we were sure we were coming and I think that confused him a little bit and he said absolutely. I came down pit road and saw nobody came and knew it was going to be interesting to say the least. It wasn’t a difficult decision, the easy choice was to just do what everyone else does from that standpoint. But there was a ton of rain and it was still coming down and I really couldn’t even see out of my windshield because of all the stuff that gets caked on the windshield and I was no help from that aspect of it. It just put us behind the eight ball with nobody coming. To get back to the top-six was a really good rebound from that aspect of things. We did a really good job on our green flag cycle, we came at a really good time and the caution worked in our favor, so had a great restart. There’s a few good takeaway from the week, but we probably could have kept track position and made it a little bit easier on ourselves today, but all in all the last couple of weeks we haven’t had great middle of the races and we’ve done a great job of rebounding. I just want to thank everyone at Menard’s, Monster Energy and Toyota. We’ll just keep working through these couple little things as the weeks wind down and try to get some momentum built up for the end of the year.”

Gio Scelzi Wins High Limit Race at Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track – Rico Abreu Secures Second Consecutive Championship

By

Photo Courtsey of High Limit Racing

The final race of the 2026 Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing Series took place tonight at the Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track. Championship points leader Rico Abreu looked to lock up his second consecutive High Limit title since winning it last year. He attempted to clinch it Friday night, but despite finishing in third position, his title nemesis Giovanni Scelzi kept the title fight alive by winning Friday nights race and cut the deficit by nine points, and entered tonight’s race 36 points back. The championship scenario was somewhat simple for Scelzi, as he would’ve had to win in tonight’s finale, however, he would need a miracle, as he would have to have Abreu finish 16th or worse in the final results.

While Scelzi went on to sweep the weekend, it wasn’t enough for him to hold off Abreu, who was able to win his second High Limit championship by finishing in the runner-up position. The title was his first under the Tony Stewart Racing banner.

“Just how my team adapted throughout the season and congratulations to all the teams out here with High Limit Racing, and the commitment they make into these seasons,” Abreu said to Flo Racing when being crowned champion. “I kind of lived this lifestyle and really enjoy it, and how fast paced it is. Hats off to High Limit for doing an amazing job. To bring Tony Stewart Racing to this entity and program, to get them a championship, congratulations to Tony (Stewart). All of his partners. CarQuest, Mike Curb and to inject some of my partners into this program has just been an unbelievable package for us.

“It’s really exciting for all of the racing in the season. My team has done an unbelievable job and being a part of the Tony Stewart Racing organization. The elite level they brought this team to and helped me, and allowed me to learn. I treat this being out on the road like a college education for me. As I learn through my career of Sprint Car racing and how these cars mechanically work. How I adapted throughout my career to drive them. There’s been some incredible people that helped me get to this position.”  

To note, this is the seventh time that a Sprint Car driver has gone back-to-back and the first time since David Gravel, who did it with the World of Outlaws in 2024-25. Other drivers to win two consecutive championships are Steve Kinser, Sammy Swindell, Donny Schatz, Jason Meyers, and High Limit Series Co-Owner, Founder, Brad Sweet.

For more on Scelzi’s night, see the feature race recap below.

There were 35 Sprint Cars onsite for the championship finale, one more than Friday night. 

Feature Race Recap – 30-Laps – $25,000 To Win

Starting on the pole thanks to the help of his dash victory was Scelzi, with Tanner Thorson on the outside pole. Abreu started in the fourth position.

Scelzi shot out like a cannon to maintain the top spot over Thorson to lead Lap 1. The first yellow of the main event flew with 24 laps for Gage Pulkrabek, who was off the pace on the backstretch and pulled his Sprint Car in the infield work area. Pulkrabek’s team was swapping a new ignition box that seemed to be the issue. The green-flag was back in the air with Scelzi leading the way. Abreu passed Thorson on the restart and took over the second position.

With 17 laps to go, Scelzi began closing in on the back of the field, which allowed Abreu to close in at a rapid pace. However, Thorson also closed in on Abreu once again and attempted a pass on him, but was unsuccessful in doing so. With seven laps to go, Abreu nearly took the lead from Scelzi on the backstretch. He briefly took the top spot from Scelzi with two laps to go on the backstretch and stayed side-by-side with him for the final lap before Scelzi ultimately went on to win the race, while Abreu was able to win his second consecutive championship. 

“First off, that was really cool of Rico (Abreu) when he cleared me not to move to the bottom,” Scelzi said in his victory lane interview to Flo Racing. “I thought it was over there when he cleared me off of (Turn) 2 and tried driving it as hard as I could, but then he left me a lane, which I thought was cool. Me, him, a lot of guys race as hard as we possibly can, and no one has touched a wheel. To have clean racing like that is very cool for you fans to see.

“I knew the bottom was greasy in the B-main and my heat race, especially. I knew I had to come in at some point. Sometimes this place does that, where the bottom stays greasy all night then you get 24 cars in there and it throws all those crumbs up to the top. I figured I would run the bottom until someone passes me on the top kind of when I rolled out there and the game plan worked. Rico was kind of running off my right-rear like he tried to do in (Turns) 3 and 4 when he passed me, but I caught the lap cars, and couldn’t clear anybody and tried a lane above me, and got really tight. Hats off to Eric (Prutzman, Crew Chief). This car was phenomenal. It’s cool to have Jeff (Dickerson, Team Owner) here and another win in Chili’s homestate.”

Heat Race Recaps – Top Five Transfer – 8 Laps A Piece

Prior to the heat races taking place, there was a Hot Lap and a Flight A/B Qualifying session. Kerry Madsen was the fastest in hot laps with a lap time of 14.645 seconds. Pacing the Flight A qualifying session was Kasey Kahne’s Racing, Daison Pursley, with a time of 13.735 seconds. Roger Crockett was the fastest in Flight B with a time of 13.811 seconds. The overall quickest time went to Pursley following the end of the two qualifying sessions.

Heat 1 – Speaking of Pursley, he was on the pole for the first heat. Austin McCarl took the lead off Turn 2 from Pursley at the start of the heat race after starting on the outside pole. McCarl grabbed the heat victory with Pursley, Scelzi, Rees Moran, and Ashton Torgerson the transfers.

Heat 2 – Brent Marks in the Chase Briscoe Racing entry had the pole for the second heat. The caution came out on the first lap for Austin Mundie, who hit the tractor tire in Turn 3 after contact with Brian Brown and Madsen. This was a complete restart for the heat as second-place starter Brenham Crouch originally took the lead from Marks on the outside lane. Marks went on to secure the heat race win with Crouch, Abreu, Brown, and Tanner Holmes in the top five.

Heat 3 – Crockett had the pole position for the third heat. The yellow flew with four laps to go for Ryan Timms, who was running in the second spot at the time, for his engine expiring. Another yellow was displayed for two cars making contact with each other on the backstretch. It was for J.J. Hickle and Xavier Doney. Hickle received a flat left-rear tire, while Doney had a flat right-rear tire.

Crockett still managed to win the heat race with Tyler Courtney, Sye Lynch, Danny Sams III, and Ayrton Gennetten moving on.

Heat 4 – Last night’s heat race winner, Kasey Kahne, had the top spot for the fourth and final heat. Kahne won the heat race with Chase Randall, Justin Peck, Thorson, and Brady Bacon completing the transfers.

Moving to the dash were McCarl, Crockett, Marks, Kahne, Scelzi, Courtney, Abreu, and Thorson. Scelzi would win the dash to start on the pole in the 30-lap feature.

Landon Crawley won the 12-lap B-Main and was followed by Madsen, Pulkrabek, and Doney the final four moving on to the A-main.
