Qualifying Results

Three drivers have clinched a Chase birth! 39 combined top-10 finishes put Tony Pizzaro, Ryan Heuser and Zach Michael atop the heap, in line for a ten-driver assault towards the season finale at Homestead. Both Johnny Reed Foley and Rick Jackson can clinch at The Lime with a respectable result, with Timothy McDonnell, Adam Crapser, Alex Crapser, Craig Lee and Matt Raboin completing the current top-10. Those five will battle defiantly against Markell Murphy, the recently hindered Bink Lucas, Zakk Miller and "Miracle-Man" John Tharp for the final five Chase positions.

A morbid crash for Bink Lucas at The Glen! He and Matt Raboin tangle entering the brake zone for turn-10, wheel-hopping over Geno Sphere's left-rear and into the guard-rail. Lucas's #5 Lifesaver Mustang flipped 4-1/2 times before coming to a stop against the outside tire barrier, digging inside the sand trap after each blow. "The gravel stopped me from flying into the camper lot, but boy does my abdomen hurt." Hopefully Bink to redeem himself at The Lime.

There's only one road to Watkins Glen! Dirt-covered terrain between the vibrant summer foliage provides fans a miraculous journey, destroying the drivetrains of many and extending the ground clearance for all! "My Saab couldn't take the pain" said Erb Entwistle, longtime Extravaganza fan from Randolph, New York. "The tire flew inside the cockpit while hitting a rut near Thurston. At least now I'll know when it's worn!"

Race Recap

Zakk Miller talked about winning his seventh pole during his "This Week In Extravaganza" segment, filmed inside the Corning Museum of Glass ampitheatre. "I wish we had this many wins!" exclaimed Miller, discussing his 2025 campaign with host Randy Orb. "If we stay up front for more than a lap it'll be a small victory, but we'll need a good run for the points like a plague needs a an antibody!" His first wish would fall through the cracks, with Johnny Reed Foley beating him to turn one and leading the first lap.

A miraculous blow to John Battista! The gearbox broke while shifting out of neutral, ending his day before it started in shades of Johnny Reed Foley at Michigan. "This pretty much ends our Championship run" said crew chief Lew Money. Battista endured his league-leading eighth DNF of 2025, dropping 207-points back of tenth place Matt Raboin with only two races left. He would be joined by Rod Weston in the garage after a crash into the tire barrier exiting turn-1.

Chaucney Redmond Jr. endures the same fate as Weston, devastating the tire barrier and coming home 44th. Another turn-1 percussion between Craig Lee, Jonathan Skrabacz, Michael Henson and David Butterworth took them out of the running, dropping Lee only 117-points ahead of Markell Murphy for the chase cutoff. Dave Miller and Dalton Lucas would scuffle trying to avoid the carnage, limping to top-25 finishes despite the devastation.

Up front, Johnny Reed Foley and Matthew Dominique attempt to pull away from the field, with pole-sitter Miller using his Bepis #30 Mustang as an escutcheon to hold off Timothy McDonnell and the rest of the pack! Dominique would come in for fuel strategy during the lap-6 caution, with McDonnell and Tony Pizzaro passing Miller for second-place just three laps into the run. By lap-20, CFM teammates Foley and McDonnell were long gone.

Jonathan Skrabacz gets turned! Contact between he and Dalton Lucas sends the #48 Castrol Chevrolet into the inside wall while racing for 31st, catapulting into the path of Trae Larkin. The #00 Fanta Chevrolet would miraculously continue despite enormous front-end damage, with Skrabacz heading to the garage. On the restart, Tony Pizzaro gets the jump of the century, passing the entire CFM Motorsports brigade to steal the lead away on lap-30!

Pizzaro and John Tharp race side-by-side between laps 38 and 40, with Tharp finally taking the advantage as the field bunches up behind! By the halfway lap, it was Tharp, Pizzaro, Foley, Zach Michael, McDonnell, Matt Raboin, Ryan Heuser, Logan Sheets, Adam Crapser and Jeremy Hebel occupying the top-10. A dive-bomb entering the inner-loop puts the Fenway Frank #12 back up front, dropping Tharp to fifth after clipping the curb.

Extravaganza's six-race northern stretch continues at Michigan for the Miller Lite 400! Markell Murphy snaps Zakk Miller's three-race pole streak with a 35.657-second run, handing Team Danger Zone their eighth pole-position in hopes of their first three-car Chase effort. Miller and Murphy enter less than 70 points behind 10th-place Bink Lucas, needing to capitalize on their head-strong engine program before the oncoming road-course stretch.

Craig Lee got lost in the lawn after buying his new zero-turn John Deere tractor last week. "It was a gift from Ryan." said Lee "It has everything but a GPS system. Hopefully he'll buy me a compass!" Maybe Craig will have less trouble navigating the Michigan International Speedway. By lap-three he passed pole-sitter Markell Murphy for the lead, keeping the pace before the first caution flag.

A lap-5 holocaust towards the rear! Dakota Wilkins, Rob Scarberry, Trae Larkin, Ben Geer and Molemar Diggs go for a spin, collecting damage end rendering their cars uncompetitive for the rest of the day. Fourth in points Johnny Reed Foley blew a piston on the start, failing to take the green flag and finishing 46th; the worse effort of his Extravaganza career. Up front, Alex Crapser leads the field after staying out.

Alex Crapser, Adam Crapser, Matt Raboin, Matthew Dominique and Craig Lee dominated the remaining stint, pulling away front the field with help from Steve Inkman holding up the Team Danger Zone trio while battling for sixth. Craig Lee's #101 NOS Energy Quick-Silver Motorsports Chevrolet nearly led the entire distance prior to the halfway mark, leaving only Dominique and Adam Crapser in his wake.

Dave Miller blows a tire! A right-rear issue off turn-2 sends the #90 Marlboro Chevrolet into the barrier, sliding back towards the racing groove. He clips Jeremy Hebel; both smacking the outside wall before Ziggy Moonglow careens Miller and flips towards the apron in turn-3. Ken Joynt, Molemar Diggs and Alex Crapser, who just short-pitted after a top-5 effort, fell victim to the ensuing mayhem. All would fail to continue.

Alex Crapser drops to 7th in points, getting passed by Craig Lee while Dave Miller plummets to 17th. What a horrible blow! Up front, Lee continues his advantage after pit stops, nabbing the Halfway Bacon Bonus with Matthew Dominique, John Battista, Zach Michael and Donald Stewart in tow. 35 cars survived their lead lap status by lap-100, keeping the field tight in hopes for a competitive second-half showdown.

John Battista blows a tire entering turn-3! The second right-rear obliteration of the race sends the #39 Wendy's Lucas Racing Chevrolet in a cavalcade of sparks, igniting the field as they french fry their way through the smoke and flames. Donald Stewart gets clipped, sending both cars into the outside wall. Then, disaster struck. Zakk Miller devastates the rear of the Wendy's machine, clipping Geno Sphere and Dan Johnston in the aftermath. All five cars would fail to continue, with Battista and Miller dropping to 13th and 14th in points.

Craig Lee and Zach Michael pull away during the following stint, with Mark Heron, Cristian Torres, Logan Sheets, Trae Larkin, John Tharp, Tony Gunk, Steve Inkman and Matt Raboin inside the top-10. Battling for 11th, contact between Tony Gunk and Dakota Wilkins sends one-third of the field for a spin, with Ryan Heuser, Rob Scarberry. Markell Murphy, Doug Spark, Chauncey Redmond Jr., Matthew Dom ... Read more »

Alex Crapser became unhinged but unhurt during his Brickyard 400 catastrophe! "I felt like a bowling ball inside the cockpit" said Crapser, shifting limbs inside the seat that nearly unscrewed itself from the floor-board. "I clung on to the shifter for life support. Luckily it stayed together, but my brain feels like an empty can!" Crapser hopes to double-down on his Michigan victory last year, ensuring his hopes of his fifth-straight chase birth.

Nobody has dominated the Brickyard like Ryan Heuser and the #138 Quick-Silver Motorsports NOS Energy Chevrolet. He's earned a top-5 finish in every event since 2018, hoping to finally nab the points lead away from Tony Pizzaro. Both drivers will qualify outside the top-10. 400,000 spectators roam the facility in hopes of a new superstar, with 45 drivers ready to dethrone the King!

Race Recap

Zakk Miller earns his third straight pole! A Team Danger Zone one-two punch on the front-row, hoping to sever ties with the rest of the pack and dominate the show. They would fail. Johnny Reed Foley leads lap-one with ease, navigating past the teammates like Magellan on the Victoria. It's his fourth-straight race with a lap-led, only one behind Ryan Heuser and John Battista for the league lead.

Devastation on lap-three! Dakota Wilkins gets turned exiting turn-three, sliding through the short-chute access-road before returning to the track. Dave Miller pulverized his passenger-side, sending Dakota for a flip with Miller clipping both "camera-cars" Tony Gunk and Mike Carroll. All four ventured into the turn-four wall, with Chauncey Redmond Jr. failing to avoid. All would fail to continue.

Dakota Wilkins and Dave Miller dropped to 15th and 16th in the standings after the accident, dropping 100-points behind tenth-place Bink Lucas with only three races left. More importantly, they lost the Brickyard 400. Up front, Alex Crapser inherits the lead after he, Craig Lee, Doug Spark, Markell Murphy, Scott Jackson and Bink Lucas stay out. Crapser would continue his advantage through lap-15, before pole-sitter Zakk Miller re-gained the throne. Markell Murphy pulled to fourth, leaving three of the top-four spots to Team Danger Zone.

Despite a second full-fledged effort for Miller and Michael to pull away from the pack, Ryan Heuser rummaged through the field to lead his sixth-straight event on lap-37. Only Miller, Johnny Reed Foley and Jeremy Hebel could match his pace through the halfway mark, slicing a five-second gap on fifth place Geno Sphere. After pit stops, the #138 Quick-Silver Motorsports entry was gone, in-line to take the points lead if the results stood still.

Horrible crash in turn-3! Alex Crapser goes for a spin after contact with Tony Pizzaro, becoming dismantled by Scott Jackson as Bink Lucas and Molemar Diggs fly into the carnage. Three severe hits to Crapser's #04 Pennzoil Chevrolet knock him out cold, with Molermar Diggs pile-driving him towards the outside barrier. Luckily, the walls were foam-based, increasing his chances to race at Michigan next week.

Molemar Diggs goes for a ride! Fifteen full flips in eight-seconds; a tumble of the ages! Miraculously, Molemar came out unscathed. Every socket in his body turned red, with a bleeding mouth and eye socket the only blemish. He'd park next to Bink Lucas, who also went for a slide across the pavement. Molemar, Bink, Crapser, Matthew Dominique, Rick Jackson, Scott Jackson, Michael Henson, Rod Weston, Jonathan Skrabacz and Steven Spears all failed to continue.

Ryan Heuser leads the field to green! Johnny Reed Foley gets a push from John Battista, taking the helm before Heuser nabs it back on lap-102. A turn-4 accident between Dan Johnston and Cristian Torres puts the field to a halt, with both drivers okay despite their heavy impact to the outside barrier. It was Heuser, Foley, Tony Pizzaro, Jeremy Hebel, Geno Sphere, Battista, Matt Raboin, Alan Nesfeder, Timothy Mc ... Read more »

Nobody has enjoyed more success than Ryan Heuser at the Brickyard 400! Seven-straight seasons of top-5 finishes have been the plague of his competition, knowing they'll have to endure the wrath of the NOS Energy #138. Zach Michael was able to break the Quick-Silver domination in 2023 with a late-race charge! Can anyone do it again? Heuser comes in 71 points behind first-place Tony Pizzaro for the regular season Championship. He's led a lap in five-straight weeks, hoping to tie Buddy Rakestraw for second-most career wins with 88. Heuser passed Roscoe Riker with his Brickyard 400 victory last year, closing the gap on Harrison James.

Ryan Heuser's Brickyard 400 Finishes

Tony Pizzaro, Ryan Heuser, Johnny Reed Foley, Zach Michael, Rick Jackson and Alex Crapser are well on their way to the promised-land! All they have to do is survive the five remaining races and they should be locked into the Chase. Miracle-man Zakk Miller wins an unprecedented sixth pole of 2025, sharing the front row with Danger Zone teammate Zach Michael in a 1-2 punch from the Mustang Gods! Miller enters the Brickyard 400 only 52-points back of 10th-place Matt Raboin, hoping to clinch his second-straight chase birth!

Dakota Wilkins shows his stride! Five victories last season proves to be no fluke, currently 10th in the standings, though winless for 20 races in 2025. "We went water rafting in Tunk Creek yesterday" said crew chief Joe "Novacane" Densham. "We crashed on the Fern Ridge, and our kayak flew into somebody's backyard. A man started shooting at us. We gave the man a free boat, we should be shooting him!" He will start outside-pole for the Pennsylvania 400.

Zakk Miller wins his fifth pole of 2025! Cardboard cut-outs of his exoskeleton are shown in convenience stores throughout the country, holding an ice-cold Bepis in one hand and a thumbs up on the other. "They printed 2,000 copies of it." said Miller "One will be riding with me during the race!" The #30 Team Danger Zone Mustang led the first three laps, relinquishing to Craig Lee.

The #101 Quick-Silver Motorsports entry only led 73 laps entering the Pennsylvania 400. Just three top-5's puts him a modest 7th in the standings, hoping to overcome his 26-race winless streak. He and Matt Raboin tag-teammed away from the pack before Chauncey Redmond Jr. took charge. The #64 New England Patriots Chevrolet was class of the field, leading the pack through green flag stops on lap-45.

Ziggy Moonglow endures demonic luck! Just one week after his first DNF of the year, a pit road accident involving Mike Carroll and Geno Sphere puts his team into a frenzy! He'd limp to a 37th-place finish after the damage. Geno recovered to 33rd, with SPAM-Man Mike Carroll rebounding for his third-straight top-13 finish, putting him back inside the top-35 in points! Up front, Matt Raboin passes Redmond for the lead before the first caution flag.

A morbid crash! Pole-sitter Zakk Miller blows a right-rear tire, sliding into the path of Ben Geer as they both smack the outside wall exiting turn-1. Rod Weston slams into Geer, eventually cauterized by Dakota Wilkins, Alan Nesfeder and Zach Michael. Adam Crapser, Dan Johnston, Mark Heron and Cristian Torres dove low to avoid, only to clip Weston's NAPA Dodge parked in the infield grass. Wilkins, Weston, Geer, Nesfeder, Michael and Torres all failed to continue. A pit road crash ended the day for Rick Jackson, slashing Craig Lee as they exited their stalls. Miraculously, both would maintain their fifth and seventh positions in the standngs, as Zach Michael loses third to Johnny Reed Foley after the previous incident. Up front, Chauncey Redmond Jr. regained his lead after a masterful pit stop, only to lose it to Ryan Heuser on lap-70.

Miracle-man Tony Gunk pulls towards the leader, roping Timothy McDonnell, John Battista and Markell Murphy along as the remainder of the field fails to keep pace. The #138 NOS Energy Chevrolet wins the Halfway Bacon Bonus, along with capping the 100-lap mark. A short-pit strategy by Johnny Reed Foley and Alex Crapser put them atop the heap with one stop to go! Heuser's crew would drop a lug nut, falling to 10th.

Liquid from Jeremy Hebel's blown motor brought out the final caution on lap-111. Most of the field stayed out, with Tony Gunk, Ryan Heuser, Dalton Lucas, Michael Henson, Steven Spears, Ken Pettit, Jimmie Stevens, Logan Sheets, and Doug Spark coming in on the first lap. The second lap also saw takers, with Timothy McDonnell, Dave Miller, Molemar Diggs, Donald Stewart, Trae Larkin, Ken Joynt and Scott Jackson attempting to make it to the finish. 

46-to-go on the restart. Johnny Reed Foley, Alex Crapser, Markell Murphy, John Battista, Steve Inkman, Mike Carroll, Tony Pizzaro, Bink Lucas, John Thar ... Read more »

The #38 W.A.S.P. entry misses it's first race since 2000! Scott Jackson takes over the #70 Mudhole Motorsports Dodge, fulfilling the promise to his late aunt Dolores that he will never drive a Ford. "She bought a Cougar in 1968" he said. "Her ex-husband stole the rod bearings during an LSD trip. He thought they were poisonous." The rod fell off during her trip to Buckeye Mart, solidifying her disdain for the Ford Motor Company. Zakk Miller earns his fifth pole of 2025, dropping his season average to 7.3.
