FROM FIFTEENTH: Corey Day Pulls Off Stunning Victory with Kubota High Limit Racing at Lake Ozark

Just when you think Corey Day has done enough mind-blowing tricks behind the wheel of a Sprint Car, the teenage sensation pulls out something even more stunning.

The 18-year-old native of Clovis, California has been the single most talked about factor in the sport this month. Two weeks ago, he topped arguably the strongest field of the year in a Knoxville Nationals tuneup against the World of Outlaws. Last week, he banked almost $80,000 with a sensational drive at Skagit Speedway's Dirt Cup.

How can you top such magnificent moments? Don't worry, Corey did what Corey does when Kubota High Limit Racing rolled into Eldon, Missouri's Lake Ozark Speedway on Wednesday night.

The Jason Meyers Racing, Driven2SaveLives #14BC team immediately fell behind the eight ball with a broken rear end during Capitol Renegade Qualifying leaving them without a timed lap. Forced to start dead last in the DMI Heat Race, Day put his head down and went to work - promptly driving from 11th-to-4th in eight laps to transfer into the A-Main.

His performance was only just beginning at this point. Starting from 15th in the 35-lap A-Main, Day managed to pass a whopping 14 cars in the opening 14 laps to take the lead.

Once in control, Day refused to lose. Putting on a clinic across the final 22 laps, he dominated all the way to the checkered flag with a 2.577-second margin of victory.

The $20,000 Midweek Money Series win now makes Corey Day the highest-earning Sprint Car driver of the season. It's his fifth trip to Whiskey Myers Victory Lane, leaving him one score away from tying Rico Abreu, Kyle Larson, and Brad Sweet (all at six wins) as the winningest driver in Kubota High Limit Racing history.

Justin Peck and Buch Motorsports matched their season-best effort with a second-place outing after leading Laps 12-13. It's their fifth podium of the year with Kubota High Limit Racing as they sit only 63-points away from the fifth and final High Stakes Charter spot.

Spencer Bayston and CJB Motorsports rounded out the podium, their third of 2024 with the series. The TrueTimber #5 moved forward to eighth in the overall championship standings and into fourth in the Midweek Money Series points.

Closing out the top-10 at Lake Ozark was Carson Macedo, Brad Sweet, Kyle Larson, James McFadden, Parker Price-Miller, Giovanni Scelzi, and Tanner Thorson.
