Race 1: MegaG+ 1.7 “Modifieds”
Round one opened with a bang as Team Maddox delivered a master class showing in the first race of the day with the MegaG+ 1.7 Modified platform. Long story short, Shaylin and Abe Maddox had a battle royale going on in the last two segments. Shaylin would win the final segment by roughly four hundredths of a second over second-place finisher and teammate, Abe Maddox. What an exciting finish!Teammate and Abe’s grandpa, Fred Ebert, bagged the last podium spot with one 2nd place segment finish and two 3rd place finishes.
Not to be outdone by the more experienced drivers, Junior driver, August Feinstein managed to win the second segment by over 3 seconds in the Orange lane–great driving by all and exciting to watch. Details

Race 2: MG+ 1.7 Cameros & Mustangs (IROC)
Dean Donaldson of Full Speed Racing returned for a double header after putting on a show in the Viper V-SPEC race on Friday night. Certainly feeling the effects of his hydration issues and two long races on Friday night, Dean settled in and got down to business in this second race. Dean would end the race with three 2nd-place segment finishes, one lap down on Expert driver, Home Cook’n, and less than a 10th of a second slower in total runtime. Dean is on track to win the Sportsman division points championship for 2025 and join the Expert ranks for the 2026 season. DetailsPlace | Name | Laps | Points | Total Time |

Race 3: Viper V-SPEC SPEC STOCK Lexan
While the detailed results will show that this race was a dogfight between Home Cook’n and Full Speed Racing’s Dean Donaldson, it was discovered after the race that Home Cook’n was running a car with an illegal front axle assembly (independent instead of fixed). Of course, the “SPEC STOCK” rules do not permit these modifications. As such, Home Cook’n was disqualified, and Dean and Kevin Webster would move up to the top two podium spots.
Despite the obvious advantage that Home Cook’n had in both experience and car handling, Dean finished just one lap down at the end of three segments. Dean clearly demonstrated that he’s a force to be reckoned with, especially when it comes to racing the Viper V-SPEC platform. DetailsPlace | Name | Laps | Points | Total Time |
