What they're saying

"
When Briggs Danner won the BC39 at The Dirt Track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on July 1, he was speechless at first. After winning his first USAC National Midget race and kissing the bricks, Danner relished the moment on the 1/4-mile clay oval and declared there was “Nothing like this.” Danner, who also scored his first Silver Crown victory on pavement at Winchester Speedway in dominating fashion on July 19, became the first driver in 2026 to win in all three of USAC’s national tours.
