REVIVAL Super Dirt Series
Dillard Claims Third Ronny Adams Memorial Victory at Boothill Speedway
The Nutrien Ag Solutions REVIVAL Super Dirt Series Presented By Sunoco officially opened its 2026 season Friday night with the running of the Ronny Adams Memorial at Boothill Speedway, and it was Cade Dillard who once again rose to the occasion.
Dillard captured his third Ronny Adams Memorial victory and his third career REVIVAL feature win, putting together a dominant performance throughout the evening.
The night began with qualifying, where Dillard set the tone early by laying down the fastest overall lap of the night with a blistering 14.737-second lap. In the second qualifying group, Eli Ross topped the charts with a 15.262-second lap to earn fast time honors in Group #2.
Heat race action saw Brandon Ball and Chris Bragg each claim victories, setting the stage for the evening’s feature lineup. Dillard continued his momentum by winning the Pole Dash, securing the inside front row starting position for the main event.
When the green flag dropped on the feature, Dillard quickly established control of the race while an intense battle unfolded just behind him for positions inside the top five. Morgan Bagley, Jon Mitchell, Ross, Bragg, and Clay Stuckey traded positions throughout the race in one of the most competitive battles on the track.
As the laps wound down, Bagley began closing in on Dillard as the leader worked through heavy lap traffic. With Bagley glued to Dillard’s rear bumper and searching for an opening through the lapped cars, the race took a turn when a caution flew for Stuckey with five laps remaining.
On the ensuing restart, Dillard maintained his composure and pulled away to secure the victory as the checkered flag waved.
Terry Henson was one of the biggest movers of the night, advancing five positions during the feature to earn the Mel Hambelton Racing Hard Charger Award.
The Hard Luck Award, presented by the Mid America Dirt Podcast, went to Dakota Smith, who unfortunately was unable to take the track due to motor issues.
The REVIVAL Super Dirt Series now shifts its focus to the next stop on the 2026 schedule on March 27–28 at Arrowhead Speedway for the Fujita 50, a major co-sanctioned event with the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series that is expected to bring together many of the top Super Late Model teams from across the region.
