Bobby Pierce wins Shale Crescent Dirt Cup at Muskingum County

ZANESVILLE, Ohio—The inaugural Shale Crescent Dirt Cup took place Wednesday at Muskingum County Speedway in Zanesville, Ohio, which brought together a unique Ryder Cup-style showdown between the nation's two premier Dirt Late Model tours at the 3/8-mile owned by Donnie Moran and promoted by Tristin Moran.

The event, streamed live on FloRacing, clashed the top 12 drivers in points from the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series against the top 12 from the World of Outlaws Late Model Series in a battle of touring supremacy.

Bobby Pierce dominated the final 22 of 50 laps to claim the $20,000 winner's share, his 14th overall victory of 2026. Josh Rice, who led laps 15-27, finished four seconds behind Pierce in second. Nick Hoffman led the opening 14 laps and rounded out the podium.

Team Lucas topped Team Outlaws, 117-84, to claim the inaugural Shale Crescent Dirt Cup.
