What won the race: Leading all 30 laps in a battle between the two winningest drivers in series history, hometown racer Tad Pospisil earned a $3,000 victory Saturday in Off Road Speedway's Bob Haase Memorial for his first Malvern Bank West Series victory of the season. Pospisil, who started outside the front row, took the checkers 1.333 seconds ahead of fourth-starting Kyle Berck.

Quotable: "There was moisture up there from the beginning of the night. It just took a long time to get there, and that track prep they did helped us get to it sooner," Pospisil said. "It got pretty treacherous though, top of (turns) three and four). I jumped the cushion a few times ... it was just a fine line and I'm used to running around this place on the bottom, so the top, that's a little unfamiliar for me."

Key notes: Tad Pospisil won his first series race since 2024's finale at Adams County Speedway in Corning, Iowa (he was a seven-time series winner last season). ... Pospisil has 41 career Malvern West victories. ... Three cautions slowed the action, the first when Charlie McKenna retired with mechanical difficulties on the eighth lap. ... Ninth-running Brian Kosiski slowed on the 21st lap with a flat left-rear tire. ... The final caution appeared on the 28th lap when reigning series champion Bill Leighton Jr. slowed with a flat right-front tire, who was running ninth after fading from his pole position. ... Leighton was debuting a new Longhorn Chassis. ... The tour's April 26 event at Off Road Speedway rained out.

On the move: Six-time and reigning IMCA champion Cory Dumpert of Newman Grove, Neb., away from IMCA competition because a two-week suspension for wrecking a competitor under caution at U.S. 30 Speedway, started 12th and finished fifth despite getting into the outside wall between turns three and four on the 10th lap.

Winner's sponsors: Pospisil's Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Scott Bailey Racing Engine and sponsored by Signor Trucking, Window World, Iron Horse CPAs & Advisors, Dietz Well & Pumps, 97.5 WEXL/WJAG, Island Supply, Bad Chad Motorsports and Malvern Bank.
