In the three USAC National series in 2019, the hard charger winner was also victorious in that night’s feature a total of three times throughout the entire season.

Chris Windom’s second race as a member of Tucker-Boat Motorsports began much the same as his first the night before by having to quickly make up ground and dig his way into contention after starting behind the eight ball, and the first three rows.

A new year and a new beginning are just the things Tanner Thorson was seeking with the outset of the 2020 USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midget season.

The past season with the USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midgets proved to be one of the most balanced in terms of the variety of winners throughout the season in the history of the series.  A total of 14 drivers reached victory lane in 2019, five of which were first-time winners, the most since 2008.

A new decade of USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midget racing is upon us beginning this weekend, February 7-8, at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla.  Looking back on the past 10 years, we review some of the busiest drivers of the past decade of the 2010s with the series.

Kevin Thomas, Jr., the owner of both the one-lap and eight-lap track records at Bubba Raceway Park in a USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midget, led the way with the fastest practice lap in Thursday night’s open session leading into the season openers, February 7-8 at the 3/8-mile D-Shaped track in Ocala, Fla.

As a frontrunner, when all is said and done at the end of a long season, the most important things in the stat book are wins and championships.  Those two things pay the bills and get the most pub from fans and scribes such as myself.

When you’re a member of Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports, there’s an inherent expectation to produce results. That’s no exception when it comes to the Rookies on the team as well – Buddy Kofoid and Daison Pursley – both of whom begin their quests as first-year full-time drivers on the USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midget trail in 2020.

Throughout the span of a season, it can take a little while, or a short while, for one driver to rise above the rest to become the first two-time winner in USAC’s NOS Energy Drink National Midget division.
