Last year Brenden Queen won the CARS Tour race at the All-American Speedway and he similarly entered the race with the same intention. But the race was nothing sort of dramatic for the driver as he won the pole and even led the race but in the end, an unfortunate incident turned the cards and finished 11th.

The dramatic race at All-American Speedway
On April 13, 2024, at the New River All-American Speedway in Jacksonville, North Carolina, there was a notable incident involving driver Brenden Queen. Unfortunately, during the zMAX CARS Tour race, Queen experienced a crash that impacted his performance
With 39 laps to go, Queen was leading the field and he was not in the mood to give away his lead and maintain passing corners from inside. Tyrell was pushing to pass Queen and at one moment 33 was slightly wide in the corner Tyrell tried to pass him from the inside and the move unfortunately made contact with both drivers.
With a little damage both of them survived and continued the race at All-American Speedway but Tyrell lost his second position as a result. But Queen was still leading the race with 30 laps to go he made a crash hard into the wall which greatly impacted the driver’s day.
Despite the crash, it’s worth noting that Queen had previously achieved success in the CARS Tour at New River. Hopefully, he’ll bounce back from this setback and continue competing at a high level in future races.
