While celebrating his win, Justin Grant encountered an unforeseen mishap as his car became lodged in the dirt and was sent spinning into the air. The car completed three full rotations before finally coming to rest upside down, a dramatic and attention-grabbing moment reminiscent of incidents involving Kyle Larson and JJ Yeley in the past. This airborne spectacle served as a reminder of the inherent risks and excitement that come with racing on dirt tracks.

Justin Grant, the accomplished USAC Sprint Car driver in 2024

1.  In the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship season opener at Ocala Speedway, Justin Grant secured a dramatic victory. Despite a hair-raising incident that could have ended his race, he overtook Brady Bacon just five laps from the finish line.
2. Back-to-Back Wins: Not content with just one victory, Grant continued his winning streak. Starting fourth for the second consecutive program, he blitzed past Kevin Thomas Jr. to earn his second victory in as many nights. This win was worth $7,500, and he drove the TOPP Motorsports/NOS Energy Drink – Bow Foundation – TOPP Industries/Maxim/Kistler Chevy to victory.
3. Setting Records: Grant’s success didn’t stop there. On Thursday night at Ocala Speedway, he set a new milestone by claiming his 48th career series victory. This achievement catapulted him into sole possession of fourth place all-time, surpassing USAC Hall of Fame inductee Tracy Hines.
