Kyle Keller’s win came in a 50-lap feature for the top NASCAR division at the one-third mile speedway with 14 competitors taking on the track. Keller led time trials and started fourth after the inversion.

The No. 3 machines of both Joey Kennealy of Madera and Fort Bragg’s Trey Daniels shared the front row. Daniels won an early battle with Kennealy to solidly have the lead in hand by the second lap. Keller passed Kennealy for second then approached Daniels. Daniels slowed exiting turn two, paving the way for Keller to storm into the lead on lap eight. Daniels quickly regathered his pace but not before 2024 champion Kenna Mitchell of Loomis took over second as well.

Kellen Keller spun in turn three to bring out a caution on lap 12. Mitchell, Daniels, and Kennealy slipped and slid for second in a physical battle with Daniels scooting through a three-wide move to take the position.

The race remained under green flag conditions with Kyle Keller leading the way into lapped traffic. Auburn’s Colton Nelson spun battling with Kylie Glick of Lincoln in the vicinity of the leader, setting up a four-lap race to the finish. Kyle Keller held court for the victory. Daniels topped Mitchell in the battle for second. Kennealy and rookie Cam Carraway of Castro Valley rounded out the top-five.

Kellen Keller led qualifying then paced all 25 laps for his second Roseville Jr. Late Models win of the season. Carraway led the second pack of cars to finish second followed by Clovis’ Skyler Schoppe and Reno, Nevada’s Mia Wright.

Roseville’s Eric Schmidt won the 75-lap Wild West Super Series feature after a long duel with defending champion Kenna Mitchell. Mitchell, the fast-time qualifier, was searching for her first checkered flag of the 2025 season.

Mitchell led the field into a caution on lap 19. Schmidt roared into the top spot on the ensuing restart and held it until lap 63. Mitchell dove underneath Schmidt into turn three to the approval of the crowd to nab the top spot. Parts flew off the rear of Mitchell’s car into turn one however and the caution flag waved. Mitchell retired to the pits and was unable to continue. Schmidt led the final 12 laps for the win while Cole Moore topped his father John Moore for second.

Kris Price of Sacramento led wire-to-wire to defeat one of the best NASCAR Berco Redwood Modified fields of the season in a 30-lap feature. Price led qualifying then came up short behind Nick Lyons in their heat race. Price would not be denied in the feature, withstanding an early challenge on lap five from defending champion Tyler Wentworth of Rocklin on the backstretch. Wentworth got sideways and never recovered the difference over the non-stop race. Price grabbed victory followed by Wentworth and Lyons. Former Super Stock champion Andrew Peeler returned to All American Speedway with a strong fourth place finish with Bud Anderson rounding out the top-five.

Fort Bragg’s Trey Daniels won the 30-lap INEX Legend main event, contending with some of the highest achieving Legends drivers in the nation to get the win. Tracy’s Brenden Ruzbarsky, the third highest driver in the national Pro points, won qualifying and his heat race for the pole of the feature. Daniels pursued Ruzbarsky and the pair collided in turn three on lap 12. Ruzbarsky spun but refired the engine and the race remained under green flag conditions, thrusting Daniels into the top spot.

Lincoln’s Brody Manning spun in turn two on lap 19 for a caution flag. The final 11 laps saw Ruzbarsky march through the field up to third position but he fell short of overhauling race winner Trey Daniels or second place driver Vito Cancilla of Martinez, age 13. Kai Lovell of Ukiah finished fourth followed by Rocklin’s Robby Czub.

The NASCAR F4 division put on one of the closest battles of the night with points leader John Sproule narrowly defeating multi-time champion Ray Molina in the 30-lap contest. Fast-time qualifier Molina took the lead of the main event on lap two. Sproule tracked him down then pounced, taking over on lap 17. Molina battled back by retaking the lead on lap 23. Sproule tried the high side, then found the inside to make the winning pass on the final lap. Molina tried to cross over Sproule in turn four but fell short. Barret Sugden of Stockton finished third followed by Lelani Sprenkel and Stephanie Ziebell.

Phil Wilkins of Roseville dominated the 30-lap NAPA Super Stocks feature for his first win of the season. Points leader Tim Walters of Dixon finished second with Dean Wilkins running third,
