GLSS-Great Lakes Super Sprints
Limaland & Montpelier On Tap This Weekend for Great Lakes Super Sprints
Merrill, MI - With one points-paying race in the books for the Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP, the season rolls on with a huge doubleheader weekend in Buckeye country, and in the land of the Hoosiers. Limaland Motorsports Park is slated to open the 2026 season with GLSS on Friday, May 1st, while Montpelier Speedway welcomes GLSS alongside the Great Lakes Traditional Sprints on Saturday, May 2nd.
A staple on the GLSS schedule, Limaland Motorsports Park has long played host to 360 Sprint Car racing. Friday’s season opener for the track will be the 22nd contest held at the University of Northwestern Ohio playground. Many of Ohio’s best have GLSS-sanctioned wins at the facility, including Devon Dobie, Jac Nickles, and Randy Hannagan. Other winners include Dustin Daggett, Dylan Westbook, and Tylar Rankin. But, only a select few have multiple GLSS wins at Limaland.
Jared Horstman, who had a chance to go back to victory lane in 2025 as part of his seven-win season, has been held out of the win column at Limaland since winning a pair of events in his championship-winning 2017 season. Nate Dussel is part of the multiple-wins club thanks to his feature wins in June of 2023. Likewise, Creed Kemenah has two GLSS wins at Limaland to his credit from the 2023 season. Luke Griffith also had himself a multi-win season in 2023, grabbing wins in May and July.
Only two drivers can say they’ve won more than two GLSS races at Limaland in their career, though. World of Outlaws Rookie of the Year contender, Kasey Jedrzejek has three feature wins to his credit, the first coming in July of 2024. The LaGrange, Ohio native added his second win Memorial Day Weekend last year, and picked up his third win on July 4th.The all-time GLSS wins leader at Limaland is four-time and defending Series Champion, Max Stambaugh. The Smith Motorsports driver grabbed his first career win in front of his home crowd on May 2nd of 2025, part of a four-win season in Lima and nine overall wins for the year.
On Saturday, the sanction returns to Montpelier Speedway in Montpelier, Indiana for the first time in nearly a decade. In fact, Winged Sprint cars have been absent from Montpelier Speedway since the last Great Lakes Super Sprints’ event in July of 2019. Jared Horstman grabbed the inaugural event on July 29, 2017, as part of an 11 win season for the two-time GLSS Champion. The next two shows, however, went to 2018 GLSS Champion, Dustin Daggett, with wins in July of 2018 and July of 2019.
The Great Lakes Super Sprints take on Montpelier Speedway alongside the Great Lakes Traditional Sprints, who make their Montpelier Speedway debut on Saturday night. Due to cooler forecasted temperatures, racing at Montpelier Speedway is set to begin at 6:00 PM.
As for Friday night at Limaland Motorsports Park, things are still scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM.
