Odrick Tallies Second Pro/Am Challenge Victory of 2025

 

LEXINGTON, Ohio (June 22, 2025) – Tristan McKee (No. 28 Spire/Gainbridge/SLR-M1 Chevrolet Camaro) earned his first-career CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Series victory in style, leading every lap on his way to Victory Lane at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. After claiming the point position when his teammate Corey Day (No. 17 HendrickCars.com/SLR-M1 Chevrolet Camaro) went off course in the first turn of the race, the second-place starter put on a display of pure dominance, driving away from his competitors and repeating the feat for multiple restarts. When he captured the checkered flag, he became the second-youngest winner in the history of the Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli at the age of 14 years, 10 months and 19 days, and stood atop the podium between TA2 Champions Rafa Matos (No. 57 Concord American Flagpole/SHR Chevrolet Camaro) and Thomas Merrill (No. 26 HP Tuners/Franklin Road/Cope Chevrolet Camaro). McKee’s win extends his lead in the point standings for the CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Series Championship, Rookie of the Year and Young Gun Award.

 

Notes of Interest:

  • Tristan McKee earned his first-career victory in just his eighth points-paying race in the CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Series.

  • McKee became the second-youngest winner in the history of the Trans Am Series at 14 years, 10 months and 19 days old. Brent Crews is the youngest winner, earning his first victory at 14 years, three months and four days old.

  • McKee leads the point standings for the class, in addition to the Rookie of the Year and Young Gun Award battles.

  • McKee’s victory was his fourth-consecutive podium finish. He has not finished worse than seventh in the first six events of the season.

  • Rafa Matos’ second-place finish was his third podium of the season. The three-time champion has one win, which he earned at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.

  • Thomas Merrill earned his first podium of the 2025 season with his third-place finish.

“That’s what we’re hoping for, to be the champion when it comes to the last race,” said McKee on the podium after being asked if he could become the youngest champion in Trans Am history. “I’ve just got to give thanks to all the SLR guys; they brought a really good car. They came prepared; we unloaded off the trailer really fast and stayed fast all weekend, so all props to them. You know, I did a lot of studying and preparation for this race, and it really paid off. Thanks to Josh Wise, Scott Speed, Spire Motorsports, Chevrolet, Gainbridge, and once again, all the TeamSLR crew.”

Jared Odrick (No. 00 Black Underwear/CoolBoxx Chevrolet Camaro) earned his second win of the 2025 season in the CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Series Pro/Am Challenge, finishing ninth overall. Barry Boes (No. 27 Accio Data/SLR-M1 Chevrolet Camaro) started the race in the lead and had commanding speed, but was stymied by an electrical issue on lap 28. Once Odrick took the lead, it was a tight battle between him and Keith Prociuk (No. 9 HP Tuners/Cope Race Car Ford Mustang), with Odrick ultimately taking the checkered flag and Prociuk finishing second. Cale Phillips (No. 99 Mincey’s Graphics/SNP Inc. Ford Mustang) took the third podium spot.

 

“It was tough, obviously it’s hot,” said Odrick on the podium. “We were all trying to keep our composure and catch our breath here. But it was awesome. [Keith] Prociuk and I were close all race, he was in my mirrors all race. At the end there, he actually overtook me going into [Turns] 8 and 9 because I had let some National guys go through to keep a clean race. He passed me, looked like he got a little wide in Turn 9, and he had to wait to get on throttle, and I was able to get on throttle a little bit earlier, so I was able to take it with two corners left. And it was so, so dramatic; I can’t wait to watch the tape.”

Tyler Tomassi Tackles Talladega with MBM Motorsports

22-year-old to make drafting track debut in October

STATESVILLE, N.C. (July 8, 2025) – Motorsports Business Management (MBM Motorsports) and Tyler Tomassi have paired up once again for a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series entry in the Love’s RV Stop 225 at Talladega Superspeedway on Friday, October 17.

The 22-year-old Rhode Island native drove one of his best NASCAR races to date on the 2.5-mile Tricky Triangle in Pocono, securing his second-career Top 25 finish. Now he will have his first opportunity to tackle a drafting superspeedway this fall back behind the wheel of the No. 69 MBM Ford F-150.

“I am thrilled to drive in my first ever superspeedway race! Talladega has been on my bucket list to experience my whole life as a NASCAR fan. Now, not only do I get to go to this renowned track, I get to go there as a driver,” said an excited Tomassi. “I can’t thank Carl Long and the entire MBM group enough for everything. Let’s get it!”

MBM Motorsports team owner Carl Long fielded the Floridian Motorsports No. 21 truck at this track last year, an entry that Mason Maggio drove inside the Top 3 and earned a Top 20 finish. Long knows how to coach up a young driver coming to a superspeedway early in their career.

“Tyler showed us a lot at Pocono, and I am proud that our MBM team gets to field him in his first Talladega attempt. Superspeedway racing is a unique skill set that takes both talent and luck to get right. We are working hard to give Tyler everything he needs to have a great run,” said Long.

MBM has yet to finalize the primary sponsor of the No. 69 truck for the 85 racing laps around the 2.66-mile superspeedway.

FOX Sports 1 has live television coverage of the Love’s RV Stop 225 on Friday, October 17, beginning at 4 pm ET.

NASCAR’s tournament heats up Chicago action | The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

CHICAGO — NASCAR’s first in-season tournament hasn’t made much of an impression on its drivers so far. Ty Gibbs said Sunday he didn’t know who his second-round opponent was until after the Cup Series race.

That might be about to change.

Gibbs is one of eight drivers still in the mix for the $1 million prize that goes to the winner of the five-race, bracket-style competition. While Shane van Gisbergen was closing out his Cup victory in Chicago this weekend, some of the most compelling action on the downtown street course was at least connected to the inaugural In-Season Challenge.

Alex Bowman and Bubba Wallace raced each other hard in the final laps after they tangled in Chicago last year. Bowman got the better of the head-to-head matchup, finishing eighth and eliminating Wallace from the tournament.

After the 2024 Chicago street race, Wallace was fined $50,000 for slamming his door into a victorious Bowman during his celebration. Bowman had clipped Wallace on Lap 25, sending him spinning into the wall of that race.

John Hunter Nemechek was 15th, one spot better than his opponent, Chase Elliott. Gibbs had a strong day and finished second, good enough to beat AJ Allmendinger in sixth. Ty Dillon, Tyler Reddick, Ryan Preece, Zane Smith and Erik Jones also moved on.

The 14th-seeded Smith upset No. 3 seed Chris Buescher by finishing 14th. He is matched up with Gibbs for Sunday’s road race at Sonoma.

“I hate we had to knock another Ford out, but it’s super cool to advance,” Smith said.

With the in-season tournament — part of a new media rights deal that includes TNT — NASCAR is following in the footsteps of the NBA and soccer leagues around the world. After Sonoma this weekend, it concludes with races at Dover and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Bowman said the tournament wasn’t on his mind as he battled with Wallace at the end in Chicago. Whatever the reason for the contact, their head-to-head matchup certainly added a bit of intrigue to the racing behind van Gisbergen’s victory.

With the money involved and the field trimmed to eight drivers, there could be more moments like the duel between Bowman and Wallace in the final weeks of the challenge.

“I wasn’t expecting that to happen or to get raced like that, but we did,” Bowman said. “We just have to move on from it and keep digging.”

It sure sounds as if Dillon is enjoying the competition. Dillon, the No. 32 seed, eliminated Brad Keselowski on Sunday after he upset top-seeded Denny Hamlin at Atlanta on June 28.

There was absolutely no drama in Dillon’s win after Keselowski was collected in an early crash that began with Carson Hocevar hitting the wall and spinning out between Turns 10 and 11. Hocevar was eliminated by Reddick.

“I’m just so proud of Kaulig Racing and our No. 10 team,” Dillon said. “I knew in a basketball city, going up against Brad in a game of knockout, I was going to have a good chance.”

Dillon takes on Bowman and Preece faces Reddick in the next round. But the most interesting contest just might be Nemechek versus Jones in a matchup of Legacy Motor Club teammates.

“I felt like if we could have gotten through the first round, these next two rounds are really good for us,” Preece said. “Our road course program is pretty strong, and we keep making it better. So going into Sonoma, I think we’re up against Tyler Reddick, so he’s really good at road courses as well, but I like being the underdog.”

Data from last week’s Chicago Street Race will help the NASCAR Cup Series field this weekend at Sonoma Raceway, as they will race on the same Goodyear Racing Eagle tires. Sonoma is the fourth road course race of the season with all three previous races utilizing the same tire setup.

This is the only time this season that NASCAR will visit road courses on back-to-back weekends. 

“Last week’s Chicago race on the same Goodyear Racing Eagle tires should help the Cup Series teams in their Sonoma preparations,” said Stu Grant, Goodyear general manager of global race tires. “With consecutive road course races – and the Mexico City race just a few weeks before – teams should have a solid dataset to help dial in their setups.” 
 
The Xfinity Series will move to a different Eagle tire after running the first three road courses on the same tire. Teams will use a different tire code starting at Sonoma due to a minor tread compound update.  
 
Both series will have wet weather tires available in the case of inclement weather. In addition to the difference in tread pattern, these tires feature white “Goodyear Eagle” lettering on the sidewalls instead of the traditional yellow.
