LOVES PARK, Ill. (Sunday, October 4th, 2009) -- Josh Nelms was down and out with 100 laps to go in the Budweiser 200, but with a few great adjustments and a lot of determination, the Chicagoland driver found himself wearing the wreath today at the 44th annual National Short Track Championships at the Rockford Speedway. Nelms etched his name in the history books with a late race pass, using the low line to push past the venerable Jeff Kendall with 21 laps remaining and hitting his marks the rest of the way to lay claim to the title of 2009 National Short Track Champion. Kendall, a six-time Dells Raceway Park track champion, led the opening 179 laps of the event before Nelms' daring maneuver, and had to hold off a hard-charging 'Fast' Eddie Hoffman for the bridesmaid's position. Lowell Bennett had a solid run to take home fourth while Jon Reynolds Jr. battled through adversity to collect a top five, finishing fifth. In the Mid-American Stock Car Series, Jeremy Spoonmore made it back-to-back at the National Short Track Championships, proving last year's victory was no fluke with a dominating title defense in the Mtn Dew 75. In the RoadRunners, veteran racer Sonny Schoffen went wire-to-wire to claim the O'Reilly Auto Parts 44, holding off Ricky Nielsen for the victory.

JEFFERSON, WI (Saturday, September 19, 2009) - Ross Kenseth's season in the BRP Big 8 Series presented by Gandrud Chevrolet continues to shine as he won the 2009 Wisconsin State Championship presented by Miller Brewing Company at Jefferson Speedway in Jefferson, WI. Kyle Jarlsberg and Jason Erickson each claimed feature wins in the Twin 65-lap feature events that highlighted the two days of racing at Wisconsin's Action Track.

"The car was awesome, we came from ninth both times to finish third and finish second," an excited Kenseth said in victory lane. "I have to thank these guys from Pathfinder Chassis, this thing was really really good. I could go high or low on anybody."

Jarlsberg took the lead as the green flag flew over polesitter Scott Broughton. He would put some distance between himself and Broughton and would not be challenged throughout the 65-lap event.

Kenseth Roars to Second Straight Big 8 Series Victory at MadisonOREGON, Wis. (Friday, August 14, 2009) – Not even father time can keep Ross Kenseth down these days, as the 16-year-old rising star claimed his second consecutive BRP Big 8 Series presented by Gandrud Chevrolet feature victory tonight at the Madison International Speedway, claiming the rain-delayed “Rockweiler Insulation 38” a month and a half after he set fast time for the event. Kenseth used a late race restart with three laps remaining to jump past Andrew Kulka on the outside and drive to his third Big 8 Series feature victory of the season with four races down. Kulka put up a challenge but couldn’t find the grip he needed on the inside lane, allowing Kenseth to complete his charge from deep in the field, starting on the sixth row, to the front.

After a six week wait, it was Kyle Shear who jumped out front when the green flag finally waved on the BRP Big 8 Series presented by Gandrud Chevrolet “Rockweiler Insulation 38” at the Madison International Speedway. Shear built up a solid cushion over second place Casey Johnson while Zach Riddle worked his way up to fourth place eight laps into the main event.
