COLCORD, Okla. (July 19, 2025)—Mark Smith of Anthony, N.M., picked up his first career USMTS victory earlier this year, and then made his presence felt Friday night during night one of Joe Duvall’s Funkadelic Dirt Track & Honky Tonk Extravaganza weekend.

In a night featuring both the USRA Heartland Modified Tour presented by Real Racing Wheels and
USRA American Racer Modified Series presented by Day Motor Sports, Smith stole the spotlight, the winner’s check, and $2,600 worth of lap leader bonus money to boot.

The starting lineup saw HMT regular Tad Davis on the pole. He quickly built a half-straightaway advantage while fifth-starting Smith, Sean Gaddis, Jason Hughes and Joe Duvall argued over the runner-up spot.

Smith untangled himself from that mess a lap later, and two laps after that he was all over Davis, stealing the lead on lap five.

While Smith worked the top of the speedway, navigating a treacherous cushion that continually upset his race car, Davis was content to wrap the bottom of the racetrack, keeping the No. 2SS within striking distance just past the halfway point.

When the lead duo entered traffic, things got interesting. Davis took multiple shots at the leader but couldn’t overcome the momentum Smith carried off the top of the track at both ends of the speedway.

A lap-21 caution bunched the field back up, and it was a scrum behind the leader on the restart. Davis found himself under attack again from Gaddis and Hughes, while Kale Westover and a hard-charging Tyler Wolff had also joined the fray.

Gaddis, Wolff, Hughes, and Westover shuffled Davis out of the top five before the final caution waved with two laps to go. On the final restart, the top five remained unchanged, with Smith taking the win while Tyler Davis dropped Tad Davis another spot, those two finishing sixth and seventh, respectively.

Smith grabbed a $2,000 winner’s check, bringing his total winnings on the night to $4,600, plus a custom workbench from Wheeler Metals. Other contingency award giveaways for night one of the Funkadelic were provided by MB Customs, Schoenfeld Headers, Fast Shafts, Dizzy Dean Electric and Bryke Racing.
