🏆 RACERS TO WATCH | FAST BY GAST NATIONALS

The road to the championship runs through Indianapolis! With two events remaining before champions are crowned, October 16–18 could set the tone heading into the World Finals in Valdosta. These five racers have plenty on the line:

🔹 John Markham | Pro ET / Ultra Sportsman
Leading the points in BOTH classes, Markham has two championships in his sights. Indianapolis is his opportunity to build those leads—but with challengers closing in, every round matters.

🔹 Deshawn Wheeler | Pro Ultra 4.60
Sitting fourth in points, Wheeler has been building throughout the season after a tough start. A deep run in Indy could turn that progress into a stronger position for the championship push. Keep an eye on him!

🔹 Heather Wagner | Top Gas
The two-time Top Gas world champion is finding her stride. After early-season struggles, a round-three appearance in St. Louis and a Kentucky victory have her heading into Indy with momentum. Sitting second in points, can she keep stacking win lights?

🔹 Mantez Thompson Jr. | Pro Ultra 4.60 / Ultra Sportsman
Second in BOTH classes, Thompson Jr. is chasing two titles. Indianapolis gives him a chance to close the gaps and put pressure on both points leaders before the finals.

🔹 Scott DeLong | Super Comp
DeLong arrives as the Super Comp points leader, with the field looking to take a bite out of his advantage. Another strong showing could give him valuable breathing room heading into the final stop.
