The 2023 Slinger Nationals is finally done and dusted. One of the biggest super late model races of the season took place at the Slinger Super Speedway, with a total of 27 drivers.
NASCAR Truck Series driver Ty Majeski, driving the No. 91 Ford Mustang with sponsorship from iRacing, won the prestigious 44th Annual Cobblestone Hotels Slinger Nationals with a late-race pass on eventual runner-up finisher Luke Fenhaus.
Ty Majeski emerged victorious when he used the late-race restart with four laps remaining in the race and remained on the outside of Fenhaus’ No. 4 to take the lead. He crossed the finish line by 0.403 seconds ahead of Fenhaus’s dominating car to take the short-track race victory.
The win marked Majeski’s third victory in the Slinger Nationals, making him the sixth driver to score three or more wins in the event at a quarter-mile paved oval automobile race track.
Speaking about his win in Victory Lane, Majeski said:
“Yeah, sometimes these races go your way, and sometimes they don’t. Obviously, I had a good-timed caution there. Luke was probably a little better than us. His car was a little bit more versatile going through lapped traffic, he could maneuver a little better and make a little more time. All it takes is a yellow and a good restart. Thankfully, we came out on top tonight.”Luke Fenhaus finished runner-up, while Derek Thorn, John DeAngelis, and Austin Nason made the top five.
Chase Elliott, the highest-finishing NASCAR Cup Series driver, secured P6 finish on his debut at the 'World's Fastest Quarter Mile Oval."
Steve Apel, Levon Van Der Geest, Brad Mueller, and William Byron (the defending champion of the event) completed the top 10.
Former NASCAR Cup Series champion and eight-time winner of the Slinger Nationals, Matt Kenseth, had a disappointing campaign as he finished P22 after his race came to an end early due to an apparent scoring issue.
Here are the final results for the 2023 Slinger Nationals at Slinger Super Speedway:
