An electrifying finale to the 14th Annual USMTS Texas Spring Nationals took place Saturday night at the Rocket Raceway Park as Dan Ebert captured the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt feature win over a season-high field of 67 monster modifieds.
Rebounding from a tumultuous night on Friday, Tyler Wolff rolled from first-place after earning the Sybesma Graphics Pole Award and paced the first ten laps with Dan Ebert and Jake Timm closing in.
The leaders entered lapped traffic on lap 15 with Wolff, Ebert and Timm nose to tail. Using a back-marker to his advantage, Ebert went high and snuck by Wolff who was bottled up by the traffic.
Moments later, the Gorsuch Performance Caution Flag waved for the first time as fourth-running Terry Phillips lost the handle of his machine while Tyler Davis and Dereck Ramirez also got together, but both got their spots back as Phillips delivered the yellow.
Rodney Sanders, Tanner Mullens and Jim Chisholm went to war for the fourth spot after the restart but Chisholm spun in turn three four laps later to cause another slowdown.
That restart allowed Mullens to slip by Timm for third, and then Kyle Brown nudged ahead. Meanwhile, Jason Hughes was making the best of his provisional 25th starting spot and was ninth by the halfway mark.
After yet another yellow flag for Wolff’s unfortunate spin, Kyle Brown blew past Mullens for second with Timm, Ramirez and Hughes not far behind.
But like Jack Sartain the night before, nobody was in the same class as Ebert rolled in Victory Fuel Victory Lane after leading the final 40 circuits of the 50-lapper around the popular 3/8-mile clay oval in Petty, Texas.
“It’s not often when you’re racing—a lot of racers that are watching can understand—you have a car when you just hit it that right that night, the 36-year-old from Lake Shore, Minn., said. “It’s not very often when you can just hit the setup perfect, and we did tonight. It was really awesome.”
Ebert’s margin of victory at the checkered flag was 3.154 seconds and put him at the top of the points battle with four races in the books.
The rest of the Featherlite Top-3 were 13th-starting Brown and Timm, while Mullens and 14th-starting Ramirez completed the top five.
Hughes, Mike Hansen, Davis, Sanders and Alex Williamson rounded out the top ten. Meanwhile, Phillips rebounded from his early banana peel moment.
Although Hughes passed 19 cars to finish sixth, provisional starters are not eligible for the FK Rod Ends Hard Charger Award so that honor went to Hansen who passed 17 of his fellow competitors.
Crown jewel coming up: One of the most prestigious events in dirt modified racing, RacinDirt USMTS King of America XIII takes place on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 7-9, at the Humboldt Speedway in Humboldt, Kan.
Dan Ebert is the defending King of America winner.
Following an open practice on Wednesday, three nights of racing will see the winners pocket $3,000 on Thursday and $5,000 to win on Friday while Saturday’s champion will collect a $12,000 paycheck.
USRA Stock Cars and USRA B-Mods are also on the card all three nights racing for $500, $700 and $1000 to win, respectively, plus Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national points.

In 2023—the most competitive season in USMTS history—18 different winners claimed victory utilizing 17 different chassis manufacturers in the 34 races that were held. What’s more, there were 17 competitors who attended every event.
This year’s Summit USMTS National Champion could pocket more than $180,000 in post-season earnings at the end of the year.
The series champion will earn $50,000 and each of the three regions pay $10,000 to win the points. If a driver can win all three regions and the national points, a whopping $100,000 bonus awaits.

Sartain’s scores second USMTS win at Rocket Raceway Park
The Rocket Raceway Park in Petty, Texas, hosted the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt on Friday for opening night of the 14th Annual Texas Spring Nationals, and local Lone Star State hero Jack Sartain left ‘em scratching their heads.
Another one-hit wonder entering the weekend liftoff, Kale Westover used the pole position to claim the early while Sartain, who started 13th on the 28-car grid, began his march to the front.
Two Gorsuch Performance caution flags in the first two laps—the second of which saw points leader Jason Hughes get upside down in a multi-car melee—kept the field bunched.
For the first half of the 20-lap race, Westover remained out front but Jake Timm and Gary Christian were doing their best to keep Westover in sight. Little did they know the threat was behind them.
By lap 15, Sartain was already nipping at the leader’s heels. Then, using a lapped car as pick, stormed by Westover on the inside of turn two to grab the lead with 21 down and 19 to go.
Timm, who was working to chase down Sartain, brought out the next yellow when a flat right rear tire sent him to the Danny Crane Racing Engines hot pit, and out of contention for the win.
One laps later, Carlos Ahumada Jr. hooked the cushion and flipped his Hughes Chassis to force the second red flag of the contest.
With a $5,000 paycheck just a few feet away, Westover broke and collected a hard-charging Joe Duvall. The fifth and final caution set up a green-white-checkered finish, but Sartain wasn’t rattled and pulled away for the win.
“That was great. I didn’t know if I ever going to win one of these things,” Sartain said. “These guys are so good and it’s just hard when you don't race with them all the time. Luckily, I’ve got Tyler Davis and he tells me everything to do.”
It was Sartain’s second USMTS triumph in a little more than three years, but the first for Davis’s new BOM Motorsports MK1 Race Cars.
“The car was excellent tonight. I kind of found me a groove that worked. I just gassed the hell out of it.
“Down here in three and four there was a little thin strip and I could literally get the car turned in and put it on the mat and just drive all the way through three and four wide open. I kept going ‘Man, this is going to go away but it stayed with me the whole race.”
Although the Royse City racer passed 12 cars en route to his visit to Victory Fuel Victory Lane, Christian did one better and passed 13 on his way to a runner-up finish despite a wheel-banging restart earlier that almost took them both out of the race.
Completing the Featherlite Top-3 finishers was Terry Phillips while Dan Ebert was actually the most prolific passer as he started 20th before climbing his way to a fourth-place finish and the FK Rod Ends Hard Charger Award.
Tanner Mullens was fifth while Alex Williamson, Sean Gaddis, Davis, Timm and Mike Hansen completed the top ten.
The second night of the 14th Annual Texas Spring Nationals happens Saturday night with the Summit USMTS Modifieds headlining the action. USRA Stock Cars, USRA Limited Mods and Sunoco USRA Factory Stocks will battle for Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national points.
