SPRINGFIELD, Neb.—Jack Dover is down to his final month of the racing season.
The Tim Estenson Motorsports driver plans to compete the next four weekends in four different states to wrap up the 2025 campaign. It will mark his first time at each of the four tracks on the schedule.
“It should be a pretty exciting month,” Dover said. “We get to travel and go to tracks I’ve never raced at. That’s always interesting. I’m excited to see if we can wrap up the year strong. As the year has gone on we’ve gotten better so I’m looking forward to seeing how we do.”
The action begins this Friday and Saturday at Texarkana 67 Speedway in Texarkana, Ark., during the 38th annual Short Track Nationals. It’s his first time competing at the Short Track Nationals – an event that was founded at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Ark., and recently moved to Texarkana 67 Speedway – since 2015.
“My goal is a top 10,” he said. “At Short Track Nationals the key was always to survive. If this is anything like how the event was then we’ll do our best to avoid any trouble and move forward.”
From Arkansas, Dover and the team will head to Texas to compete on Nov. 7-8 with the POWRi Honest Abe Roofing 410 Outlaw Sprint League at The Dirt Track at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth.
On Nov. 14-15, Dover plans to race at Vado Speedway Park in Vado, N.M., before the season concludes Nov. 21-22 at Central Arizona Raceway in Casa Grande, Ariz., with the POWRi Desert Sprint Car Series.
“I’m really excited for Vado and Central Arizona,” he said. “Doing that southern swing is something I enjoy. We’ve done that a couple of years at other tracks down there in the past and it’s kind of like a vacation while you’re racing.”
