KANSAS CITY, Kan: With his final ARCA Menards Series appearance of the season on deck at Kansas Speedway this weekend, Greg Van Alst would like nothing more to end his 2024 season the same way he started it in Friday night’s Reese’s 150.

Flashing back to February at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway, Van Alst survived an ARCA overtime restart and carnage on the backstretch to secure a third-place finish at the “World Center of Racing” and great early season momentum for what the team had hoped would be a full season of competition.

KANSAS CITY, Kansas: Fresh off A.L.L. Construction Racing’s career-best second-place finish in the ARCA Menards Series last Thursday night at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway with Landen Lewis, team principal Jason Kitzmiller returns to the seat set to take the checkered flag on the team’s limited season schedule in Friday night’s Reese’s 150 at Kansas Speedway.

Lewis made his second consecutive ARCA Menards Series start in “Thunder Valley” driving the team’s No. 97 Chevrolet SS and while the teenage phenom ran into setbacks during the 2023 race, this year’s Bush’s Beans 200 saw Lewis have the potential to surge forward and score the team’s first career ARCA Menards Series victory.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – In racing, luck is often just as important as skill. That was the case for William Sawalich on Thursday night at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Not only did Sawalich win the Bush’s Beans 200 for the second straight season at Bristol, but he also won his second ARCA Menards Series East championship thanks to a stroke of bad luck for title rival Connor Zilisch, who entered the East Series season finale with a 16-point lead.

“We had a really fast Starkey-Soundgear Toyota Camry today,” Sawalich said. “I had Tony Hirschman in my ear just to kind of calm me down and make me be cautious around those lap cars. That was definitely the whole race right there.”
