Selinsgrove Race Recap - 6/5/26
USAC East Coast Sprint Cars - 16 cars

Frustrating A main result at Selinsgrove last night after a promising start. Hot lapped 5th quick out of 16. In the heat race, we led a few laps and finished 2nd with soft brakes. Tried fixing them for the A main and they still weren’t great.

In the A main, went from 3rd to 7th from turn 4 to the flag stand on the initial start and at the end of lap 1 was 9th. Just a victim of circumstance being stuck behind a slower car. Just needed to execute better. Passed a car back and came home 8th after a non stop 25 lapper.

Thank you to my partners and to Ron Helmick, Bonnie Helmick, Jim Harper, Aaron Rohrbach, and Brandon Speilman for the crew help last night (and the sandwiches!)

Stay tuned here for our next event to be announced shortly!

Back to Selinsgrove Friday night with USAC East Coast

USAC East Coast Charges Back to Selinsgrove Friday Night

The roar from last weekend’s spectacular feature at Selinsgrove Speedway & Raceway Park has barely faded, and the stars of the USAC East Coast Sprint Cars are already preparing for another showdown this Friday night at the famed half-mile oval.

Fans are still buzzing about an unforgettable battle for the win that saw Christian Bruno charge from the eighth starting position to Victory Lane. Bruno tracked down race leader Steven Drevicki in the closing stages and made the winning pass with just four laps remaining after a spectacular duel through heavy lap traffic. The pair put on a show for the Selinsgrove faithful, at one point racing four-wide as they sliced through slower cars in a breathtaking display of wingless sprint car racing.

The victory also propelled Bruno to the top of the USAC East Coast championship standings, overtaking Drevicki in the process. Drevicki now sits in pursuit, while Kenny Miller III remains firmly in the title hunt as the season continues to heat up.

Several drivers will be looking to improve upon their performances from last weekend. Ronald Helmick turned heads with a career-best effort at Selinsgrove, showcasing impressive speed in his first appearance at the Snyder County facility. Ed Aikin led the field to green and spent much of the early portion of the race among the frontrunners before ultimately finishing seventh. Meanwhile, Kyle Spence showed plenty of promise aboard the Fraker-owned No. 42 and will be searching for an even stronger result this time around. A handful of additional teams and drivers are expected to join an already stout field, adding even more intrigue to Friday night’s event.

With the dust barely settled from one of the season’s most exciting races, the USAC East Coast Sprint Cars presented by Baer Den Farms are ready to saddle back up and do it all again.

Joining the USAC East Coast Sprint Cars on the card will be the 305 Winged Sprint Cars and the Limited Late Models, creating a three-division program packed with excitement from start to finish.

If last Saturday was any indication, fans will want to arrive early and buckle up for another thrilling night of side-by-side racing at Selinsgrove Speedway. With championship momentum on the line and a field hungry for redemption, Friday night promises to be another can’t-miss chapter in the 2026 USAC East Coast season.

Arrived back to the shop after a 2 1/2hr ride home. At the end of 25 laps, we matched our best career finish with USAC East Coast Sprint Cars with a 4th place!

Solid rebound night despite some driver errors in the A main that cost us a spot or two in the rubber. Glad to finally check Selinsgrove off my “tracks I have raced” list though!

Thank you to all of our partners and my crew help of Ron Helmick, Bonnie Helmick, Jim Harper, Mnut Moyer, and Aaron Rohrbach!
