I have been impressed to see SR 11S from Logan Seavey have been such force in midget car racing we have so long been used seeing Toyoyta TRDS winning everything have done with KK Motorsports past 10 years. That down to engine or Chassis set ups. especially on smaller tight tracks. 2024 season will be intriguing looking forward how T Mez goes Ford Stealth Engler. past season have we witnesssed more dominant showing than Abacus racing winning USAC Championship 280 points. including 8 of those being feature wins. its still good see are few Esslingers can still make feature lineup. gather nowadays its still gonna be Mopars and Toyota powered engines.

KKM are no longer using the Bullet by Spike Chassis and have moved to an in-house designed chassis once again called - LynK Chassis.

TRD are using dirt racing in the US to indentify talent to push into the Nascar development system, so Toyota are involved for other reasons.

The SR11xs are starting to become more affordable for teams who don't get the free engine lease agreements that KKM get from Toyota.


What is interesting is some teams cutting back to one car next season with RMS and Tom Molley doing so.

Hopefully with Zach Daum now building kings in the US, we can get Zach and Justin to field a house car with MP making appearances in the US and or another Kiwi using top quality equipment.

It would also be great to see the Australian built engines like the GRD Chev and the Steve Smith Hawk Ford race in the US at some point.

I believe Australian driver Michael Stewart is racing a King Chassis, GRD Chev at the Chill Bowl for Zach Daum.
