April 14, 2026

GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • HAILIE DEEGAN (Bill McAnally Racing) salvaged sixth-place finish after qualifying second, climbing to third in championship standings just 15 points behind leader despite conservative tire-preservation strategy limiting her pace throughout night race.
  • JADE AVEDISIAN’s (Central Coast Racing) championship defense hit major setback with mechanical retirement on lap 62 while running competitively—particularly cruel since CCR won this race in 2025—leaving her winless through three rounds.
  • MIA LOVELL (Nitro Motorsports) showed aggression in top-five battle, notably spinning veteran David Smith with contact between turns three-four, ultimately finishing seventh despite handling challenges as tire wear intensified in closing stages.
  • QUINN DAVIS (Performance P-1 Motorsports) delivered breakout ride running third at halfway point before late-race handling issues dropped her lap down, demonstrating speed but unable to maintain competitiveness as Tucson’s 150-lap tire marathon progressed.

UPCOMING:

  • ARCA Menards West Series at Shasta Speedway, Anderson, CA – May 2, 2026
