TYLER WOLFF

TYLER WOLFF — Tyler was behind the wheel of the MB House Car at the WISSOTA 100 this past weekend for Jimmy Mars, driving an absolutely badass-looking #91 MB Customs Joe Duvall tribute car.

Unfortunately, Tyler has other plans this weekend — and from the sounds of it, those plans don't include being anywhere near a racetrack!

Tyler, we're pretty bummed you aren't bringing either the 4W or that #91 tribute car from last weekend to Deer Creek.

But after a long weekend dealing with the weather at the WISSOTA 100, we understand.

We'll catch you at the next one! 🏁

LUCAS SCHOTT

LUCAS SCHOTT — The great news is Lucas WILL be on hand at the 28th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree!

Lucas will be behind the wheel of the #19 Longhorn Chassis of Dustin Sorensen, so although he wasn't the mystery driver in Joe Duvall's #91, you WILL get to see Lucas back in a race car this weekend.

Lucas would have been a great choice for the #91, but we're just as excited to see him back behind the wheel and racing with us at Deer Creek Speedway.

Great to have you back, Lucas! 🏁

Here is Dylan Thornton supporting his new Joe Big Daddy Duvall sideburns.  And we are sorry, but Dylan really isn't marr...

Here is Dylan Thornton supporting his new Joe Big Daddy Duvall sideburns. And we are sorry, but Dylan really isn't married so we had to throw some of you for a loop and put a ring on his finger.

And before we close this thing out, we have to leave you with one of our favorite Dylan Thornton quotes.

After giving up his second-place finish Wednesday night and third-place finish Thursday night at the IMCA Super Nationals, Dylan was asked why he didn't take his Big Dance Starting Spot.

His answer pretty much tells you everything you need to know about the guy who is about to climb behind the wheel of Big Daddy’s #91:

“You don’t go to Disneyland for four days, have so much fun the first day that you stay in the hotel room the rest of the week after buying a four-day pass.” — Dylan Thornton

Well Dylan, you’ve got another ticket in your hand.

This one is for the 28th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree at Deer Creek Speedway, and your ride is the Joe Duvall #91 MB Customs.

Go have some fun. 🏁

The Statment from Big Daddy Joe Duvall about his driver choice.

When I was injured, within a day or two John had come to visit Shelley and me in the hospital. It might have even been the next day for all I know.

I told them that day that I wanted my car at Deer Creek because I needed to have a goal. I also told them exactly who I wanted behind the wheel.

I wanted Dylan Thornton to wheel the #91.

There was a lot of pain in all of our hearts at that time, but they understood what I wanted and gave me their blessing.

Dylan and I met six or seven years ago and, honestly, we just hit it off. I wanted to see him get this opportunity because he had tried previously and never really had everything he needed to show what he could do.

Within the next couple of days, I texted Dylan and asked him about driving the car. He told me he would be honored.

From there, I contacted all of the #91 sponsors to make sure they were good with it, and every one of them graciously gave us their blessing. Lastly, I called Brenda and Ricky Kay and asked for their support, and they were unanimously in favor of it.

So at the 2026 Featherlite Fall Jamboree, the #91 is going to have a different pilot behind the wheel.

Dylan Thornton.

But rest your head knowing that God isn’t done with Big Daddy.

Big Daddy 2.0 will be back — and it’ll be with a vengeance.

In the meantime...

GO DYLAN!!

I love you all and look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Sincerely,
Joe Duvall

We want to thank EVERYONE for playing along with our “Who’s Driving the #91?” Joe Duvall MB Customs driver reveal!

Before we get to the final reveal, first and foremost we want to thank Joe Duvall for being such a trooper through this whole deal. All of us at USMTS continue to wish Joe the absolute best as he works his way back to the racetrack. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with Joe, Shelley, Addison and the entire Duvall family.

After seeing the response this deal got, we might have to play this game again with Joe’s backup car! We had a whole bunch of great drivers involved in this thing who could wheel the s**t out of that car, and you guys definitely had some fun trying to figure out who it was.

One thing we already knew is that Joe Duvall is one tough SOB.

We’ve heard that the doctors, nurses and everyone at the hospital have said they’ve never quite seen a guy like Joe. Anybody who is a race fan and knows Big Daddy probably isn’t surprised by that one bit.

Once again, everyone at USMTS wishes Joe, Shelley and Addison nothing but the best during his recovery. And knowing Joe, it wouldn’t surprise us one bit if somehow he was back behind the wheel for those final two races at the end of October!

Now, back to what everybody has been waiting for...

THE REVEAL.

Getting down to the final six drivers made this one tough. And yes, we definitely had to throw a few things in there along the way to keep everybody guessing and make sure we didn’t give it away too early.

But there was only one guy Joe wanted behind the wheel of his #91 MB Customs at the Featherlite Fall Jamboree.

Instead of us telling you why, we figured it was better to let Big Daddy himself tell you.

Here is what Joe Duvall had to say about the driver he picked to wheel the #91...

RANDY TIMMS

RANDY TIMMS — Randy would have been another great option to put behind the wheel of the Joe Duvall #91.

Unfortunately for us, Randy will be at Eldora with Ryan for the USAC Four Crown this weekend.

There's no doubt it would have been pretty damn cool to see Randy climb back into a race car and take on Deer Creek Speedway again.

Maybe another time, Randy! 🏁

JASON CUMMINS

JASON CUMMINS — Man, this one would have been awesome too.

We did see Jason's name in 2024 at the $100,000-to-win show, but no races in 2023 and around 20 races in 2022.

One thing we know for damn sure:

Jason Cummins knows how to get around Deer Creek Speedway.

Since the last time Jason raced, I'm not sure we've seen him even one time. So Jason, if you make it out to the track this weekend, stop by and say hi!

It sure would have been fun seeing you climb behind the wheel of the #91. 🏁

JON TESCH

JON TESCH — Man, this would have been an awesome choice too, and who knows... maybe you'll see this one happen sometime down the road.

Tesch would love to jump back into a car when the opportunity is right, and there's absolutely no doubt in our minds that he can still wheel the hell out of a race car at any track.

Jon just needs to get those kids off to college so he can get back after it! 😂

He really hasn't gotten away from racing anyway. He's basically been doing the same thing — he just traded race cars for traveling soccer and has been running all over the country doing that instead.

We'd sure like to see Tesch strap into one again sometime. 🏁

Absolutely picture perfect! 😍
