ROSSBURG, Ohio. — Eldora will provide the best of both worlds this weekend.
There’s no place like Eldora Speedway, and there’s no event like #LetsRaceTwo Presented by LGMG.
The legendary half-mile dirt oval will be home to USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship and NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Car racing with both series competing in a doubleheader on back-to-back nights, May 15-16.
DOUBLE DUTY
At least two drivers will perform double duty with and without the wing this weekend — Brady Bacon and Logan Seavey.
Bacon is the defending USAC winner at #LetsRaceTwo from 2025. He also scored the USAC #LetsRaceTwo round in 2018, one of his three career USAC National Sprint Car victories at Eldora. He has also won with a wing at Eldora before, taking the 4-Crown round in 2017. He’ll be at the controls of the Chris Dyson No. 20 in the USAC portion and the TKH Motorsports No. 21h with WoO.
Seavey hasn’t won a #LetsRaceTwo feature as of yet, finishing as the USAC runner-up in 2024. But he has won in all three USAC national divisions at Eldora, including the sprint car in 2023. He’ll pilot the Abacus Racing No. 57 USAC car and the CB Industries-Spire Motorsports No. 87 WoO car.
RECORD WATCH
C.J. Leary is on the cusp of the all-time USAC National Sprint Car Ironman streak. He enters the weekend with 326 consecutive feature starts with the series dating back to 2017. Justin Grant holds the record of 328 between 2017 and 2025.
Leary won the second night of #LetsRaceTwo back in 2023, one of his two Eldora USAC Sprint Car wins. He also took the 4-Crown back in 2017. This weekend, he’ll drive the Fox Brothers Racing No. 53.
A HOT STREAK
Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports is entering the weekend on a hot streak, winning the last two USAC features.
On May 2, Mitchel Moles took the team’s No. 19az to his first victory of the USAC National Sprint Car season at Indiana’s Tri-State Speedway.
On May 9, Hayden Reinbold followed suit by winning in his first USAC Silver Crown start in Reinbold-Underwood’s No. 119 USAC Silver Crown car at the Kansas State Fairgrounds.
Moles, Hayden and Reinbold-Underwood have all teamed up to win USAC main events at Eldora, but none in a sprint car so far. Moles scored his first Silver Crown win there in 2024, while Reinbold tallied his first USAC Midget win at the place in 2025.
Now, they’ll have their chance to tame The Big E behind the wheel of a pair of Reinbold-Underwood USAC National Sprint Cars. Moles finished 4th at #LetsRaceTwo in 2025, while Reinbold took 20th.
ELDORA REDEMPTION?
Defending series champion Kyle Cummins continues to check items off his list as he has once again climbed to the top of the USAC National Sprint Car standings.
Recently, he won his first Terre Haute USAC feature in April’s Jim Hurtubise Classic. Now, he aims to knock off a victory at another famed half-mile dirt oval – Eldora Speedway.
Cummins has put himself inside the top-five in four of his last five #LetsRaceTwo starts dating back to 2022. But it’s the first night of 2024 at Eldora he wants redemption on.
Cummins led laps 23 through 29.99999 until barely being nipped at the line by Robert Ballou while Cummins was .016 seconds behind at the line.
#LETSRACETWO WINNERS
With four wins apiece, Robert Ballou and Justin Grant are knotted up at the top for the most feature wins in #LetsRaceTwo history, which dates back to 2015.
Oddly enough, on three of those occasions, Ballou and Grant won at #LetsRaceTwo on the same weekend: 2015, 2017, and 2024. Ballou added one in 2021 while Grant notched another in 2023.
In all, eight drivers have won the USAC portion of #LetsRaceTwo: Robert Ballou (4), Justin Grant (4), Tyler Courtney (3), Brady Bacon (2), Chad Boespflug (1), Bryan Clauson (1), C.J. Leary (1) and Chris Windom (1).
Meanwhile, Briggs Danner won at Eldora last Fall. He and Logan Seavey are the lone two Eldora USAC Sprint Car winners also seeking a first #LetsRaceTwo triumph.
On the flip side, several USAC front runners are shooting for a first Eldora USAC National Sprint Car win. Among that group are Kyle Cummins, Mitchel Moles, Jake Swanson, Kevin Thomas Jr., and Chase Stockon.
SNYDER & BOXELL DEBUT
Two highly notable USAC National Sprint Car debuts are taking place at Eldora this weekend.
Steven Snyder Jr. will be in the CB Industries / Spire Motorsports No. 87, a ride which won the USAC National Sprint Cars’ most recent trip to Eldora in September 2025 with Daison Pursley driving.
Snyder was the 2025 USAC National Midget Rookie of the Year and led the first six laps of a USAC National Midget feature at Eldora that same season.
Jakeb Boxell, meanwhile, will drive the No. 54 car owned by his mentor, Matt Westfall. Boxell finished third and sixth in his first two Eldora outings with the USAC National Midgets in 2025. Westfall won his first USAC National Sprint Car feature at Eldora in 2006.
