🏁 Carson Macedo celebrates 50th career win on his birthday. The California driver led all 25 laps at Atomic Speedway on Monday night, holding off local favorite Cole Duncan in a thrilling Memorial Day race. Macedo, who turned 29, masterfully defended his position throughout the feature event, despite Duncan's repeated challenges from the low line. The victory marks a significant milestone in Macedo's World of Outlaws Sprint Car career, which began with his first series win in California nearly 11 years ago. "Being able to climb up the rankings of the Outlaws win list has been pretty surreal," Macedo reflected after the race.
