Tezos All Star Sprints On Display At Jacksonville And Wilmot This Weekend

The Tezos All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Mobil 1 may have kicked-off the month of May in a big way at Atomic Speedway in Chillicothe, Ohio, but the action is just getting started, as the Series turns their attention deeper into the Midwest with a pair of stops in Illinois and Wisconsin on Friday and Saturday, May 12-13. A $12,000 weekend for “America’s Series,” action will commence on Friday evening, May 12, with an all-out $6,000-to-win brawl at Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Illinois. Friday’s invasion will give Jacksonville open wheel enthusiasts their first glimpse of All Star competition since 1994, as the Series’ most recent attempt in 2020 was ultimately canceled.

Once competition in Central Illinois is complete, the traveling All Stars will turn their compasses north and proceed into the Badger State, setting aim on a one-night stop at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wisconsin, on Saturday, May 13. Joining the best of the IRA Outlaw Sprint Car Series, the Wisconsin takeover will be the first of three in 2023, returning Friday and Saturday, June 2-3, for stops at Dodge County Fairgrounds and Plymouth Dirt Track.

Certainly no stranger to the All Star campaign trail, Wilmot hosted All Star competition the last three seasons, and although Mother Nature took the victory in 2022, it was Visalia, California’s Cory Eliason and “Sunshine” Tyler Courtney who succeeded in 2020 and 2021, respectively. Like the visit to Jacksonville, Wilmot Raceway will award a $6,000 payday.

Recent All Star competition would see former NASCAR Cup Series champion, Kyle Larson, score a $10,000 payday in Atomic Speedway’s The Night The Stars Come Out on Thursday, May 4. Larson, aboard his Folkens Brothers Trucking/Finley Farms No. 57 sprint car, took control officially on lap 13, sliding Tyler Courtney and cutting the corner between turns one and two. The pair raced even at the flagstand just before Larson made his winning move; Courtney was stalled behind a slower lapped car which allowed Larson to close.
