Carson Macedo Scores Winged Sprint Car Back Stretch National Championship

I cannot say that I will do this again, but with MyRacePass (MRP) now used by around 90% of the dirt tracks across the United States I was able to compile the points using the standard 5-point scale for states and regions in five common divisions beyond the fourteen states that we have been tracking since 2016. Yes, we also used track websites, Facebook posts and other "scavenger hunts" to get the results from tracks that do not use MRP. Believe it or not, we even ran into one track that said "if you want to know our results, then you need to come to the track". 

Our system awards points in the same manner whether it is a weekly show, or a major special event, so what we are looking at is a measure of how often each driver finished in the top five during the 2024 season. This will be the first, and given the amount of time and effort this took, it could be the last "Back Stretch National Points" and today we take a look at the Winged Sprint Cars that include events across al cubic inch divisions.

Even though he finished second to David Gravel for the 2024 World of Outlaws Sprint Car title, Carson Macedo scored more points in this system than anybody else to earn the Back Stretch Winged Sprint Car National Championship. MRP stats for Macedo show 77 features started with 14 wins and 55 top five finishes.  The All Iowa Points champion in both the 410's and the 360's, Aaron Reutzel edges out Gravel by just one point for second with the California Points champion Justin Sanders in fourth and Tyler Courtney takes fifth.
