INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Mecum Auctions will return to the Indiana State Fairgrounds from May 9-17 for Dana Mecum’s 38th Original Spring Classic.

Approximately 3,000 collector and classic cars are expected to cross the auction block during the nine-day event.

The annual auction, a major fixture on the collector car calendar, has topped $100 million in total sales for four consecutive years. The event will also feature daily offerings of Road Art.

A wide-ranging slate of vehicles will be featured, including Dana Mecum’s personal 1965 Ford GT/109 Competition Prototype Roadster, the only GT Roadster to race in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Several curated collections will also be auctioned, including The JK Collection, assembled by late Mecum TV commentator John Kraman. His personal 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is among the featured lots.

The Dave Frecka Collection will bring a trio of high-performance McLarens to the block, including a 2021 Elva Roadster, a 2020 Sabre and a 2020 Speedtail XP3.

The West Coast Customs Collection, presented by TV personality Ryan Friedlinghaus, will offer custom vehicles such as a 2012 Volkswagen Passat and a 1997 Toyota 4Runner, with all proceeds benefiting the West Coast Customs Academy.

Additional notable consignments include a Warner Bros.-licensed 1989 Batmobile Coupe, a 1969 Chevrolet Yenko Camaro in Hugger Orange, a low-mileage 2020 Ford GT Carbon Series, and a 1956 Ford Thunderbird Convertible.

Chase Briscoe was the 36th of 39 drivers on track at Nashville, but he put down the fastest lap time in qualifying with a 29.125s run. He beat Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Denny Hamlin by 0.049s, who will join him on the front row tomorrow.

“Honestly, I thought I ran a decent lap,” said Briscoe. “Just a smooth lap and sometimes that’s what it takes. Obviously, a good Saturday for our Bass Pro Shops Toyota and obviously two weeks in a row we’ve been able to do that now, which is nice. Just need to put a Sunday together now.

“Track position is going to be really really big here tomorrow and that’s the name of the game most every place we go, certainly at this place. So hopefully we can maintain track position and keep it up front all day long.’’

Briscoe now has three pole positions in his first year with JGR, also earning pole in the Daytona 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 as well.

William Byron was the top Chevrolet driver in third, Tyler Reddick (who led practice) was fourth, and newly crowned Coke 600 winner Ross Chastain timed in fifth.

Brad Keselowski, Christopher Bell, Michael McDowell, Joey Logano, and Chris Buescher filled out the remainder of the top ten.

A.J. Allmendinger qualified 17th following some inspection drama earlier where NASCAR pulled the No. 16 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet aside after catching the team making unapproved adjustments.

Shane van Gisbergen ended up 23rd, which is his best qualifying effort on an oval this year, excluding the All-Star Open (a non-championship race), where he started from pole position.

Kyle Larson was hoping to rebound from a difficult Memorial Day Weekend, which saw him crash out of both the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600. Unfortunately, Nashville offered no relief. He will start 28th in his worst qualifying effort of the entire 2025 season.

Chase Briscoe’s year of improvement continued Saturday as he captured the pole for Sunday’s Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway.

Generally speaking, the faster qualifiers at Nashville have finished well on race day.

Nashville Superspeedway has been on NASCAR’s Cup Series schedule since 2021. In the four previous races there, the pole sitter has gone on to win the race once (Ross Chastain in 2023), and in two other years, the pole winner finished fourth (not bad) while the race winner started fifth and sixth (also not bad).

Then came last year, when Joey Logano won the race after starting 26th. The pole winner, Denny Hamlin, finished outside the top 10, in 12th.

Which Nashville history will play out this weekend, the more recent or those earlier three years?

Rajah Caruth secured a major victory in Friday’s Rackley Roofing 200 at Nashville Superspeedway, and his NASCAR mentor, Bubba Wallace, showed his support with a passionate reaction on social media.

Caruth won his second career race at Nashville and, in doing so, secured a playoff berth despite being 13th in the standings and 17 points below the cutline. The same couldn’t be said for ‘Malcolm in the Middle’ star Frankie Muniz, as he failed to finish for the sixth time in 12 races.

Before Friday’s win, Caruth’s only other success came at Las Vegas last year as he became the third Black driver to win in the top three NASCAR series. Wallace, who races in the Cup Series, has mentored Caruth throughout his racing career and was ecstatic when he saw the 22-year-old had dominated once again.

In a social media post, Wallace wrote: “LFGGGGGG kid!!!!!!!” Caruth has now followed Wallace and Wendell Scott as the only Black drivers to win a NASCAR race, and the sky is the limit for the talented prospect.

Caruth was a product of the Drive for Diversity program, and is currently an undergraduate at Winston-Salem State where he is completing a degree in motorsports management. Caruth had an unconventional route into motorsports, as he found his passion through racing simulators rather than competing from a young age.

After Caruth’s family purchased him an iRacing sim, he began racing virtually in the eNASCAR Ignite Series and was quickly put forward for the program. It took just six years for him to go from racing in simulators to winning his first Truck Series race.

After his maiden win last year, Caruth told AP: “Man, there was a lot of days, especially in high school, that I did not think I could get here. I can’t tell you how many times I was at internship, working like at the basketball court, whatever, in the box office, just working on my website when I was just iRacing.

“A lot of those days I didn’t think this would be at all possible.” Wallace was Caruth’s hero in NASCAR, and the Cup Series star has kept a close eye on him throughout the process, from rising star to Truck Series regular.

Wallace rushed to Caruth on pit road at Daytona after the first major wreck of his Truck Series career, and even saw his first win from a sports book in Las Vegas. “I’ve been hard on him since Day 1,” Wallace said.

DON’T MISS…

“I will never forget the first time watching him in a Legends car at Charlotte and I got in his face, ‘What are you so afraid of the wall for? You haven’t even hit.’ I feel proud to have played a small part in this and I called him, and he was pumped. But, like, his burnout was lame and his phone call was lame. I was like, ‘Come on man, I’m more pumped than you are.'”

Like Caruth, Wallace was also a product of the Drive for Diversity program, as was fellow Cup Series star Daniel Suarez. “The Drive for Diversity program has changed quite a bit since Bubba Wallace and myself were there 10 years ago,” Suarez said.

“Ten years ago, it was a great program to give you an opportunity for the K&N Series and the ARCA Series. But to make the jump to a national series, it was very difficult. You had to be lucky and you have to be very, very good to get an opportunity.

“Today, the Drive for Diversity program is so involved in the Truck Series and that’s very special because it is giving an opportunity to these young guys like Rajah and Nick Sanchez to get an opportunity in the Truck Series and perform at a very competitive level. We didn’t have that 10 years ago, so I’m very happy for them.”

Unfortunately, ninth-place finisher Daniel Dye wasn’t as fortunate.

In post-race inspection, Dye’s No. 10 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet was found to be too low on the rear heights. As a result, NASCAR disqualified the NASCAR Xfinity Series Rookie of the Year contender. Dye will be credited with a 38th-place finish.

UPDATED RESULTS: Tennessee Lottery 250 at Nashville

Additionally, Connor Zilisch, who finished in the second-place, had two unsecured lug nuts on his No. 88 JR Motorsports Chevrolet in post-race inspection, which will result in a $10,000 fine assessed to the No. 88 team and a one-race suspension for crew chief Mardy Lindley. Zilisch will remain credited with the runner-up finish, his second consecutive runner-up finish.

The remainder of the top-10 in Saturday night’s Tennessee Lottery 250 was comprised of Sam Mayer, Sheldon Creed, Ross Chastain, Aric Almirola, Austin Hill, Jesse Love, Carson Kvapil, and Sammy Smith.
