CONCORD, N.C.—The 2025 season for the World of Outlaws Real American Beer Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision was one of the most competitive in recent memory, with plenty of new and returning faces making their way to Victory Lane.
In total, 17 different drivers won at least one Series race this year, nearly twice as many as the previous season. That included nine of the top 10 drivers in the final point standings, as well as three drivers who scored their first win with The Most Powerful Late Models on the Planet.
Take a look at this season’s winners:
Brandon Sheppard (Rank: 1 / Wins: 88): The five-time World of Outlaws champion made it nine-straight years with at least one win with his drive to victory at Farmer City Raceway. His fourth win on Illini 100 weekend was the 88th of his career with the Series, 10 more than his closest challenger and fellow Rocket1 Racing star, Josh Richards.
Bobby Pierce (Rank: 5 / Wins: 42): For the third year in a row, Bobby Pierce assembled a double-digit win total en route to his second World of Outlaws championship. His 11 wins came at 10 different tracks, eight of them being places he had never won at previously with the Series. Pierce enters 2026 in a tie with Billy Moyer for fifth all-time, and is in position to continue climbing the order for years to come, as Sheppard is the only driver ahead of him who is still competing full-time at the national level.
Tim McCreadie (Rank: 7 / Wins: 39): “T-Mac” took advantage of his first full World of Outlaws campaign since 2015 to make major moves up the leaderboard with his six-win season. After picking up his first two wins of the year in familiar territory at Raceway 7 and Bedford Speedway, three of his final four scores came at tracks he had never turned a lap at – Nodak Speedway, 81 Speedway and Boothill Speedway. McCreadie’s success moved him up to seventh on the list in a tie with fellow Late Model legend Chris Madden with 39 wins apiece.
Mike Marlar (Rank: 14 / Wins: 18): Despite not running a full national schedule in 2025, Mike Marlar was consistently in contention whenever he rolled through the gates. The “Winfield Warrior” won the final night of the Battle at the Border at Sharon Speedway in July, which turned out to be the final win of his two-year stint with Skyline Motorsports before he rejoined Delk Racing in September. The 2018 champion has amassed 18 wins at 17 different tracks, with The Dirt Track at Charlotte being the only place he has won at more than once in World of Outlaws competition.
Jonathan Davenport (Rank: 15 / Wins: 17): Sitting one win behind Marlar is Jonathan Davenport, who got his year rolling with a win at Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals and closed it out with two more at World of Outlaws World Finals. That trio of victories moved Davenport to 15th all-time, and he’s second behind Jimmy Owens among drivers who have never ran a full season with the Series.
Dennis Erb Jr., Ryan Gustin (Rank: 17 [tied] / Wins: 15): Following a season littered with strong finishes and near misses, Dennis Erb Jr. broke through in the waning weeks of the year at Humboldt Speedway for his first World of Outlaws win in more than two years. Eight days later, Ryan Gustin joined him at the 15-win mark with his Boothill triumph, capping off a five-win season that also included his first crown jewel at the USA Nationals as well as wins at Volusia Speedway Park, Swainsboro Raceway and Wilmot Raceway.
Devin Moran (Rank: 19 / Wins: 14): Volusia win number six for the “Mailman” came in February, putting him in a four-way tie with Scott Bloomquist, Richards and Sheppard on top of the World of Outlaws winners list at the “World’s Fastest Half Mile.” The victory moved him into the top 20 overall and solidified his status as the second-winningest Ohio driver in Series history behind Richards.
Brian Shirley (Rank: 22 / Wins: 13): The 13th World of Outlaws win of Brian Shirley’s career was easily the biggest, as he became the newest winner of the Prairie Dirt Classic at Fairbury Speedway. His lone Series win on the year tied him with fellow Illinois star Shannon Babb for 22nd on the list.
Nick Hoffman (Rank: 25 / Wins: 11): After a breakout five-win sophomore season with the World of Outlaws in 2024, Nick Hoffman backed it up by matching that total in 2025. The upper Midwest continued to be fertile ground, with Hoffman’s first four wins coming in Wisconsin, North Dakota and Minnesota. But even though he’s called North Carolina home for the entirety of his adult life, Hoffman had never won a Late Model race on the southern red clay until finally breaking through at Needmore Speedway in September. Only three seasons into his full-time Late Model career, Hoffman has already become one of the top 25 winningest drivers on the World of Outlaws trail.
Ashton Winger (Rank: 28 / Wins: 5): For the second time in five years, Ashton Winger took down the Outlaws at his home track, Senoia Raceway, to bring his career win total to five with the Series. That equals him with several other stars of the sport’s past and present, including Donnie Moran, Earl Pearson Jr. and Ricky Thornton Jr.
Tyler Erb, Tanner English (Rank: 35 [tied] / Wins: 4): Tyler Erb’s first World of Outlaws win at a track other than Atomic Speedway came 700 miles to the northwest at Mississippi Thunder Speedway on the opening night of Dairyland Showdown weekend. Three months later, Tanner English conquered the tight 1/4-mile Highland Speedway for his first Series win in three years, delivering Coltman Farms Racing their first trophy on the national stage.
Hudson O’Neal (Rank: 41 / Wins: 3): Hudson O’Neal won in back-to-back years at Volusia to kick off 2023 and 2024, but this year, his annual World of Outlaws win came at the end of the season with a last-corner pass at World Finals. It was his first Series triumph behind the wheel of the Rumley No. 6, and the team’s first since Kyle Larson won at Sharon Speedway in 2021.
Garrett Alberson (Rank: 49 / Wins: 2): It was a breakout 2025 season for Garrett Alberson and Roberts Motorsports, and one that included the Las Cruces, NM driver’s first two World of Outlaws victories. The first came on the final night of DIRTcar Sunshine Nationals in January, when Alberson took command from Jimmy Owens past halfway and traded sliders with Davenport in the closing circuits. The encore performance came less than a month later, when Alberson led flag-to-flag in the first of three World of Outlaws Features at DIRTcar Nationals.
Ethan Dotson, Drake Troutman (Rank: 63 [tied] / Wins: 1): Two members of the 2025 rookie class scored a win in their first full tour, starting at Farmer City Raceway where Ethan Dotson took the checkers. One of the drivers he denied on that night was Drake Troutman, who went on to pick up a trophy of his own at I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway Park to become the 104th different winner in World of Outlaws history.
