Newsmaker of the Week // Chase Dietz

Chase Dietz and the Stehman Motorsports team showed the entire Sprint Car world this past Saturday that the nine win 410 Sprint season in their maiden year was no fluke and they are instead a magical combination.

In the northeast outdroo season opener on Saturday, February 28th at the Lincoln Speedway, the driver from nearby York, PA impressively won the 30-lap feature event. Dietz quickly advanced into the runner-up spot from a sixth  starting spot shortly after the halfway point. He then ran down Danny Dietrich in slower traffic and rolled around the inside of him off turn four for the lead, a move that caught Dietrich completely off guard.
From there, Dietz drove away from Dietrich following a restart with ten laps to go for his second consecutive opening day win and the $6,000 check.

  • A long Super DIRTcar Series season concluded last week with the World Finals at The Dirt Track At Charlotte, and the man of the hour was Alex Yankowski.

    The 22-year-old from Covington Township, PA went from fourth to the lead halfway through Friday’s feature and edged out rival Mat Williamson by 0.038 seconds to go down in the record books as the youngest series champion in history.

    Charlotte was perhaps the place Yankowski put his name on the map. In 2021, as a spry 17-year-old, Yankowski defeated the “Beasts Of The Northeast” in just his second start. Fast forward five years and now Alex Yankowski is making news again as a champion!
