MERCED, Calif. — After what transpired during his most recent visit to California’s Merced Speedway last November, Spencer Bayston felt he had some unfinished business there. The very next night, Bayston led the initial 25 laps before having his lead slip away to Buddy Kofoid with five laps remaining. It was Bayston’s first USAC National Midget feature victory since an Indiana Midget Week score at Lawrenceburg Speedway in 2018. Last year, Carson (Macedo) won the first night out and I should’ve won the second. Meanwhile, as one past series champion was racing his way back to victory lane, another past driving champion added a second USAC National Midget championship trophy to his case. Meanwhile, Seavey refused to rest on his championship laurels as he worked by Jesse Love for fifth on lap 16 after starting 12th. USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship, Merced Speedway, Merced, Calif., Nov. 21, 2023. ROD END SUPPLY SECOND HEAT: (10 laps, top-5 transfer to the feature) 1.
