Pennsylvania Doubles Up As Jax Wittmer Lands Junior Sprint Golden Driller

TULSA, Okla.—“I’ve been thinking about this race since we left last year,” summed up the focus at the front of the field by Jax Wittmer, who captured his first career golden Driller in the 41st annual Hyper Racing Tulsa Shootout powered by NOS Energy Drink.

Leading all 20 laps in the Flying A-Motorsports Junior Sprint A-Feature, Wittmer's determination was apparent after settling for second one year ago. Perfect laps by the Pennsylvania driver, the difference at the line was 1.762-seconds over Grayson Graham, with Stetson Stoup working from seventh to the final podium step.

Gage Pio and Levi Ballard from 15th completed the top five. Hudson Andrews, Jaxson Evett, Bryton Buoy, Beau Wyatt, and Ryker Sumner made up the top ten.

The Flying A-Motorsports Junior Sprint field consisted of 130 drivers.

The 42nd annual Hyper Racing Tulsa Shootout powered by NOS Energy Drink takes place December 29, 2026, through January 2, 2027, at the Tulsa Expo Raceway, located inside the SageNet Center at Expo Square.
