Sprint Cars have hit the racetrack once again in the United States, and Justin Peck and Rudeen Racing were the first to taste victory in the first main event of the new year Thursday night at Volusia Speedway Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n The newly formed driver\u2013team pairing kicked off their new partnership in dominant fashion, winning the American Sprint Car Series (ASCS) National Tour season opener \u2014\u00a0as part of the 54th edition of Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals<\/a> \u2014 by leading all 25 laps of the Feature to collect the $3,000 grand prize.<\/p>\n More commonly seen on the national 410 Sprint Car circuit, the Washington-based team brought the 360 engine out to get their operation rolling before competition begins with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series<\/a> next week. Though Rudeen first had Peck driving the team car at the conclusion of 2024, Peck expressed great confidence in he and the team\u2019s capability so early on into their partnership.<\/p>\n \u201cI knew we had speed in the 410 ranks, and I think we just had enough confidence knowing that if we just stick on the program we\u2019re doing and keep building our notebook together that we were gonna be pretty fast,\u201d Peck said. \u201cThankfully, we were right, and we came here with a lot of speed right out of the box. We had to tweak on it a little bit here and there to gain that little bit extra it takes to win races like this.\u201d<\/p>\n
