Rumors that started at the beginning of 2022 have finally come into fruition. Just eight weeks before the end of 2023, Randy Dobbins has decided to retire. "It's time." "I always said if I ain't competitive, I ain't racing." said Dobbins, who's averaged a career worst 27th place finish." "We're struggling to find the top-30 these days. I feel like an old man racing with a bunch of Elmo's." Dobbins has recorded only one top-30 finish in his last ten races, with four DNF's during that span. He led his first lap of the season last week at Darlington, only to fall to an accident before the halfway point. He currently has 28 career Extravaganza Series victories. He's got nine more races to add one more to the record books.
