Inside Line Promotions – PLACERVILLE, Calif. (March 31, 2025) – Dominic Scelzi earned his best result of the season last Saturday during the Sprint Car Challenge Tour season opener at Placerville Speedway.

Scelzi was strong throughout the event, which featured 40 other drivers, as he qualified fifth quickest in his group.

“We were the first car out for qualifying and the track had a little grease on it still,” he said. “We put a good lap down, but the track got a little faster.”

A second-place result in a heat race locked Scelzi into the ninth starting position in the main event.

“I had a great car,” he said. “I feel like that’s the best we’ve ever been at Placerville overall. We could roll the bottom and bang the curb better than most of the cars. Our restarts were really good, too. We got to second with about seven laps to go and we got close to the leader, but I missed the exit of turn two on the last lap, which took away the chance of sliding for the possible win.”

The second-place outing gives Scelzi at least one podium at the track during each of the last four seasons and five out of the last six years.

“All in all, I’m thrilled with our speed and feel like we had a good night,” he said. “I’m excited for Watsonville this weekend.”

Scelzi plans to head to Ocean Speedway in Watsonville, Calif., this Friday with the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series. He won his most recent race at the track in August 2023.
