Enjoy an exciting night of racing featuring the SMART Modified Tour making a stop in Pulaski County. NASCAR Cup Series winner Jamie McMurray returns to the seat of the Sadler-Stanley Racing number 16 to race alongside his son, Carter McMurray.

Two of the most successful NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour drivers in recent years highlight the robust entry list. Patrick Emerling, winner of three-in-a-row in July on the NASCAR Tour is entered at Pulaski in a Phil Stefanelli owned number-17 car. He is joined by Justin Bonsignore, who will pilot the Ken Massa owned number 51. The four-time Whelen Tour Champ last raced on the SMART Tour in 2024 – he won the season finale at North Wilkesboro Speedway.

Fresh off a big win at New Jersey’s Wall Stadium, Garden State driver Jimmy “Showtime” Blewett will also race with SMART for “The Radford Race.” It will be Blewett’s third race of the season with the SMART Mods. He has yet to win a race despite finishing runner-up on three different occasions in 2024.

Ryan Newman is the other Daytona 500 winner in the star-studded field. The Indiana native sits second in the SMART standings, but is still looking for his first win of the season.
