With one more victory, Tanner Swanson (Kingsburg, Calif.), a five-time Silver Crown winner at LOR, would surpass Mike Bliss as the winningest Silver Crown driver in the history of the track, which has hosted Silver Crown racing regularly since 1985.  Bliss is a two-time victor of the Rich Vogler Classic, winning in 2013 and 2015.

Tanner’s older brother, Kody Swanson (Kingsburg, Calif.), leads the series points and is a four-time LOR Silver Crown winner with a Vogler Classic triumph back in 2016.

Like Kody, Bobby Santos (Franklin, Mass.) is a four-time winner on the LOR oval with two Vogler Classic scores in 2012 and again in the most recent race back in 2017.

Ryan Newman (South Bend, Ind.) returns to make his first Silver Crown appearance in two seasons as a teammate to Tanner Swanson.  Newman won his first career USAC National Midget feature in 1997 and as well as winning a Silver Crown feature in 1999 at LOR, which was at that time called Indianapolis Raceway Park. Newman, the 1999 Silver Crown champ is the lone driver in Saturday’s field to have to won at the Vogler Classic’s former home of Winchester Speedway (Ind.),  sweeping the NAMARS Sprint/Midget doubleheader in 2000.

The last time Silver Crown visited LOR was back in May when Kyle Hamilton (Danville, Ind.) raced to his first career Silver Crown victory. He will man the Klatt Enterprises No. 6 on Saturday, which took over the Silver Crown owner championship point race following a top-five run with the team's dirt driver, Brady Bacon, last Sunday at Du Quoin.

David Byrne’s (Shullsburg, Wisc.) top Silver Crown moment came in the 2014 Rich Vogler Classic at LOR, where he raced by Tanner Swanson on the final corner of the last lap to win his first series victory in spectacular fashion.

Eric Gordon (Fortville, Ind.) has won in USAC Sprint Car competition at LOR while Brian Gerster (Fishers, Ind.) tallied a pair of victories with the USAC Midget division at LOR.

Five-time Indianapolis 500 starter James Davison (Melbourne, Australia) aims to make his second Silver Crown series after a 9^th place run at Salem Speedway (Ind.) in August.
