Eight of the top 10 drivers in DirtonDirt.com's latest dirt late model power rankings are expected to compete during Wednesday's Castrol FloRacing Night in America at Florence Speedway. The race at the Florence, Kentucky dirt track will serve as the series debut at the track and the final race before a nearly three-month summer break. 

Hudson O'Neal enters the seventh race of the 13-race season as the series points leader. With two wins already this season at Lincoln Speedway and Marshalltown Speedway, O'Neal leads Bobby Pierce by 33 points in the battle for the $75,000 championship. Defending champion Brandon Sheppard sits 63 points back in third, with Tim McCreadie (-66) and Jonathan Davenport (-69) completed the current top five. 

All five drivers are expected to be in action with the series on Wednesday night at Florence Speedway. 

Ricky Thornton, Jr., the driver currently ranked No. 1 in the DirtonDirt power rankings, is expected to be in attendance as he looks to score his second series win of the season. Dennis Erb, Jr. also enters Wednesday's race looking for his second win of the season after picking up the win in the most recent Castrol FloRacing Night event at Davenport Speedway. 

Fresh off his $50,000 Show-Me 100 victory at Lucas Oil Speedway, Devin Moran is expected to be in action at Florence Speedway. 

After winning the season opener at Eldora Speedway in April, Mike Marlar will be looking to park his No. 157 back in victory lane for the second time this year. 

Other national stars expected to be in attendance include Tyler Erb, Spencer Hughes, Garrett Alberson, Brandon Overton and Tanner English. 

Of course, a stout field of local stars will also be in attendance including Florence Speedway dominator Josh Rice, who has won 11 features since 2021 at Florence Speedway, including his first career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series race.
