SPEEDWAY, Ind. — Late model superstar Ricky Thornton Jr. is among the latest drivers to enter the seventh running of the BC39 Presented by Avanti Windows & Doors on July 1-2 at The Dirt Track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The field has reached 26 drivers and cars thus far as part of the rapidly growing USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship entry list on the fifth-mile dirt oval.
Thornton is part of a three-car lineup from the Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports stable, which also entered cars for Mitchel Moles and Hayden Reinbold.
Among the latest entries for the 2025 BC39 also include USAC national winners Kevin Thomas Jr., Zach Daum, Zach Wigal, Briggs Danner and Chase McDermand, who scored a BC39 preliminary night victory one year ago.
The event on the quarter-mile dirt oval inside turn three at IMS will continue to honor late USAC champion and three-time Indianapolis 500 starter Bryan Clauson.
Past championship night winners of the BC39 include Brady Bacon (2018), Zeb Wise (2019), Kyle Larson (2021), Buddy Kofoid (2022), Justin Grant (2023) and Cannon McIntosh (2024).
Action begins at IMS on Tuesday, July 1, with a full program of events for both the USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship and the Stoops Junior Sprint Invitational.
Championship night of the BC39 on Wednesday, July 2, will consist of full programs for both the USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship and the Stoops Junior Sprint Invitational.
