NCMA Sprint Cars made their first All American Speedway appearance in two years but made it count with a thrilling 30-lap feature. Former BCRA Midget champion John Sarale of Stockton, substituting for Folsom\u2019s Jerry Kobza, led the way with challenges from ten-time USAC champion Tony Hunt and Fair Oaks\u2019 Shauna Hogg. The trio briefly went three-wide for the top spot in turn four. Sarale then spun out of the lead in turn four for a caution on lap 11.<\/p>\n
Hogg and Hunt dueled on the restart before Hunt used a crossover to take the lead on lap 13. Hunt fended off Hogg through an additional restart for Tylor Amador of Ceres spinning.

Hogg finished second followed by Sacramento\u2019s David Dias, Dan Gonderman of Antioch, and Tony Amador at the checkered flag.<\/p>\n
The INEX NorCal Legend Series brought 23 cars to All American Speedway for a 50-lap INEX National qualifier, with the winner stamping their ticket to the main events of the 2025 asphalt nationals in Las Vegas. Washington\u2019s Ellie Musgrave led over a pack of numerous winners and champions. Defending series champion Brandon White of Eureka took over control on lap four. Musgrave battled back on the top side to lead lap six.<\/p>\n
Lincoln\u2019s Brody Manning spun in turn four to bring out the caution flag on lap eight. White capitalized to retake the lead on the restart. Rocklin\u2019s Robby Czub drove into second by lap 24 then turned his attention to White. Ukiah\u2019s Cole Brown spun on lap 29 which led to a prolonged red flag for fluid. Czub stormed past White on the restart in the decisive passing move for the event. White settled for second followed by Henderson, Nevada\u2019s Tanner Reif, double-duty racer Trey Daniels, and series points leader Kai Lovell.<\/p>\n
A season-best ten NAPA Auto Parts Super Stocks participated in a special event paying $600 to the winner.

Woodland\u2019s Jayden Williams spun in turn four and was hit hard by Mario Davis of Rocklin. Both drivers were uninjured. Whitfield led the final two laps in a green-white-checkered sprint to the win. Walters finished second followed by Eric Bocksberger of Lincoln, Dean Wilkins of Roseville, and Williams.<\/p>\n
John Sproule of Orangevale continued a perfect season in F4 competition by taking his fourth feature of the 2025 season. Sproule held the lead despite a challenge from Vic Theberge of Citrus Heights. Theberge and multi-time champion Ray Molina then went back and forth for second, before contact sent Molina spinning in turn two and relegated both drivers to the rear of the field on lap 24.<\/p>\n
Sproule held off Stockton\u2019s Barret Sugden over subsequent restarts before Molina charged back into the picture. Jerry Nunes and Tony Davis suffered a spectacular crash with Nunes car riding the front stretch wall, bringing the race to its conclusion three laps early. Sproule topped Molina, Sugden, Thomas Cherry, and Vicki Theberge.<\/p>\n
