Five-time Port Royal Speedway champion Logan Wagner and the Kreitz Racing No. 69K team have parted ways, both the Harrisonville, Pa., driver and car owner Don Kreitz told FloRacing on Saturday.

The 34-year-old Wagner, hired by Kreitz as Lance Dewease’s successor aboard the iconic blue-and-orange No. 69K last July, notched five victories in 35 features with one of Central Pennsylvania’s most successful teams. Both Kreitz and Wagner say the split is mutual.

Kreitz has hired Ryan Smith as Wagner's replacement for the 2025 season, the 36-year-old driver who previously drove for Kreitz in 2012-13.

“What I wanted to do didn’t fit his schedule. What he wanted to do didn’t fit my schedule as far as, like, I wanted to race a little bit more and he couldn’t make that happen,” Wagner told FloRacing. “I learned a lot from Kreitz and really respect everything he’s given me over the course of the past year and a half. It was an honor to work with (National Sprint Car Hall of Fame crew chief) Davey Brown, Don, Kassidy (Kreitz) and the crew at Kreitz.”

Kreitz echoed Wagner’s statement, making sure to say that “Logan didn’t do anything wrong, we didn’t have an argument,” and that “it wasn’t anything like that to tell you the truth.”

“It was more about he wanted to run more, and it just fit with us. With Daryn (Pittman) running some of the races, we might not run some of the races we ran before,” Kreitz said. “I couldn’t really find room to give (Wagner) more races."

For Wagner, he’s now on the search for another team that can work around his job as a corporate aircraft pilot, a job he’s had going on 13 years and a job “that holds priority with my life.” He’d at least like to race Port Royal Speedway’s biggest events, the half-mile where his 22 victories are 15th all-time in the 410 division.

“That door could be open and probably not much more outside that, something local for Port Royal,” said Wagner, a previous winner of Port Royal’s Weikert Memorial, Tuscarora 50 and Keith Kauffman Classic. “With my flying and family, and my obligations here at home, I’m not that flexible and that driver that can travel much.

“But I have great sponsors, like Saner Brothers, Mac Magee Motorsports, G&P Distributors and LD2 Catering, they would come over to any team with me. Teams can contact me at LoganWagnerRacing@gmail.com."

Wagner could also race his father Mike’s No. 55 at select Port Royal shows if he must, but not so much where it’d take too many races away from his 59-year-old father.

“We’re putting something together for a couple shows, not many,” Wagner said of potentially racing his father’s No. 55. “It would leave the door open for opportunities to run the big shows in someone else’s car at Port Royal.”

As for Kreitz, he still has former World of Outlaws champion Daryn Pittman in his driver lineup. The only races Pittman’s confirmed to race the No. 69K in 2025 are the six WoO races at Williams Grove Speedway, but “Daryn can run the car whenever he wants to.”

“If I can make it happen, we will,” said Kreitz, whose team started on the front row of the Knoxville Nationals and Oct. 11’s High Limit Racing event at Texas Motor Speedway with Pittman this year.

It took 15 races for Kreitz and Wagner to win together, but once they did June 1 at Port Royal, they won four of their 15 races together, with those wins coming over a six-race stretch in June. In total, Wagner and Kreitz raced 24 of their 35 races together at Port Royal.

“He was very professional, respectful. His sponsors were nice,” Kreitz said. “They hung around a lot. Everyone associated with him, everyone was always nice. … We didn’t have an issue. We just couldn’t get together on it basically.”
