TOLEDO, Ohio — Championship drama, hot tempers and a thrilling finish were all part of the equation that made up Saturday’s Shore Lunch 200 at Toledo Speedway, the 2022 ARCA Menards Series season finale.

It all comes down to Toledo.

SALEM, Ind. — Dominant performances have become the norm for Sammy Smith in 2022.

The battle for the 2022 ARCA Menards Series championship between Nick Sanchez and Daniel Dye is down to the penultimate race of the season, as the series invades Indiana’s Salem Speedway this Saturday for the running of the Herr’s Snacks 200.

KANSAS CITY, Kansas – When the ARCA Menards Series visited Kansas Speedway earlier this year, Corey Heim had the car to beat until he crashed out of the race while racing Drew Dollar for the lead.

DuQUOIN, Ill. — Ryan Unzicker made clear early in Monday evening’s Rust-Oleum Automotive Finishes 100 he had the speed to win at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds.

A record Du Quoin State Fair stock car payday is in the sights of 17-year-old Jesse Love after victory in the Atlas Allen Crowe 100 ARCA Menards race at the Illinois State Fairgrounds. The second half of the Performance Seed Dirt Double is at stake, a $50,000 reward to the driver who can win both Illinois dirt events on the ARCA schedule. With a victory in the Rustoleum Automotive 100 on the Magic Mile, the Californian could pocket well more than $63,000. If so, it would be the richest stock car payday in Du Quoin history.

WEST ALLIS, Wisc. — There was a point Sunday during the Sprecher 150 at the Milwaukee Mile when Sammy Smith did not have the dominant car. Taylor Gray took the lead from Smith near the halfway point of the event and led through the second of two scheduled race breaks.

The ARCA Menards Series will see a new diversity milestone reached when drivers take the green flag for Sunday’s Sprecher 150 at the Milwaukee Mile (3 p.m. ET on MAVTV and FloRacing).

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — A muddy Atlas 100 on the Springfield Mile at the Illinois State Fairgrounds, which ended up being shortened by 30 laps due to time constraints, saw Jesse Love lead wire-to-wire from the General Tire Pole for his second career ARCA Menards Series (national) victory.

Tradition is a big part of the ARCA Menards Series and one such tradition will continue this Sunday afternoon with the running of the Atlas 100 at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield, Illinois.

BROOKLYN, Mich. – Sometimes the fastest car doesn’t win the race and on Saturday at Michigan International Speedway, Nick Sanchez emphatically proved that point.

Another week, another ARCA Menards Series race paired with a NASCAR national series event to form an exciting doubleheader.

ELKO NEW MARKET, Minn. – Last week Sammy Smith needed a bit of luck to win his first ARCA Menards Series race at Michigan’s Berlin Raceway.

The short track summer for the ARCA Menards Series continues Saturday when the series heads to the backyard of title partner Menards. Minnesota’s Elko Speedway will host the Menards 250 this weekend.
