Qualifying Results

The #20 Coca-Cola Mustang needs a rebound! They were outside the top-20 in every practice session, gridding a modest 27th-place for the Pennzoil 400. Some say they were sandbagging. Others credit their history, not earning a top-10 at Homestead since their immaculate victory in 2022. Johnny Reed Foley has dominated the sessions, gridding outside-pole to Adam Crapser! A lap led will extend his advantage to eight points, hoping to pull away from Zach Michael's group in a race notorious for long green-flag runs. For The #138 NOS Energy team, it isn't so easy. They need both Foley and Zach to finish 17th-or-worse to have any chance at the title. It will be Ryan Heuser's fifth if he can pull off the feat, gripping deep in 33rd after a slip-up in turn-2. It will be Foley's second-straight if he finishes ahead of the #20 while finishing top-3rd in the field! If Zach finishes one-spot ahead of Foley with the same bonus points, and finishes top-3rd in the field, Team Danger Zone will win their first Extravaganza Series Championship!

Zach Michael has a new hobby! In anticipation for the Championship race, he bought an 8-millimeter camera once owned by the great Kazuo Miyagawa. From there, he traveled to the local neighborhood Lowe's and bought some all-purpose drywall mud, using it to create claymation! "God bless An-Lowe's" he exclaimed. Johnny Reed Foley endured a project of his own. A 12-string guitar wasn't enough to perform his newest hit "Heiniken Needs Drinkin'", so he amped it up! A 36-string guitar was brought to the racetrack on Wednesday, carried by Foley and his jackman "Big Pop" Solomon. "We used Lowe's trimmer line for half the strings." said Foley. "Hopefully the acoustics will improve!". Ryan Heuser currently sits at home, roasting mashmallows with his new KFC enviro-log. "I bought it at Lowe's while shopping for toilet seats!" said Heuser. May the best man win.

The Rookie of the Year title is uncontested! Doug Spark started twenty races to Larry Sheldrake's one, earning a career-best 8th-pace finish at Chicagoland; the first for Overspeed Rennsport. He will not be in the field for the Pennzoil 400, already searching for opportunities that may be capped. Shake N' Bake Racing and W.A.S.P. Motorsports may shut down during the offseason, with no open rides available for any of the top-contenders. Scott Jackson and Rob Scarberry are in line for a farewell tour, forcing drivers to be patient for the 2027 free agent scramble!
