Aaron Reutzel took the Ridge Sons Racing No. 87 from Clute, Texas, and drove it straight to his ninth High Limit victory and his first repeat win of the 2026 season.
He started on the outside of the front row in the 30-lap FS1 broadcast feature and seized the lead for good on lap three. From there he simply checked out, the way the great ones used to do it when the car was right and the driver refused to be denied.

High Limit Racing, the series that knows how to put on a proper show, once again proved why old-school fans are coming back to sprint cars. The newcomer-friendly production on national television kept things moving without the usual nonsense, and the drivers themselves noticed. Kyle Larson called it a big night for the sport, and the fans who tuned in stayed glued to the fast-paced, wheel-to-wheel intensity that made sprint car racing great in the first place.
That is how you open a season. No excuses, no drama off the track—just pure racing the way it ought to be.
