To the Back and Back to the Top 10

Another night at Bear Ridge Speedway brought a little bit of everything — rain, two features, a slick track, some good racing, and another top-10 finish for Anthony.

A rain delay slowed down the action for a while, but thanks to our Raccio Racing Wi-Fi, we were able to follow along with races happening at other tracks while we waited for the Bear Ridge program to get back underway.

It was a double-points night for the midgets, which meant two 22-lap features on the schedule.

The track was extremely slick for the first feature, and Anthony never really got comfortable with the car or the conditions. But he stuck with it, kept the car underneath him, and brought it home in 11th.

Later in the night, it was time to do it all over again.

For the second 22-lap feature, Anthony was pole starting position — and then made the decision to give it up and start at the rear of the field.

With so many drivers racing for valuable championship points, Anthony knew his priority right now is different. Every lap in the dirt car is still about learning, getting more comfortable and gaining experience. Rather than potentially becoming traffic for drivers fighting for points, he chose to go to the back and race his way forward.

And that's exactly what he did.

Once Anthony got himself settled in, he ran hard, made some nice passes and continued to look more comfortable as the race went on. He worked his way forward from the rear of the field and crossed the finish line 8th — another top-10 finish at Bear Ridge.

Beyond the results, one of the best parts of these trips continues to be the people we're spending them with.

We enjoyed another night surrounded by friends and drivers who are true sportsmen. They care about their teammates, they respect the people they're racing against, and they race with sportsmanship on the track. That's the kind of environment we're grateful for Anthony to be learning in.

It's an honor to be part of this team, and we're looking forward to continuing to learn, improve and enjoy every lap along the way. Congratulations to Brandon and the entire Ray Miller Racing team for securing the 2026 Championship!!!
