Cap Henry Is Fifth Different Ohio Speedweek Winner

FREMONT, Ohio — Cap Henry made it five different winners in five events of the 44th Annual Overwatch Precision Ohio Sprint Speedweek Presented by Kistler Engines/Kistler Racing Products.

Henry claimed the $10,000 Napa Auto Parts All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Valvoline Oil victory Friday at Fremont Speedway Presented by the FriendShip Kitchen.

The two-time and defending Fremont Speedway track champion took the lead from Cale Thomas on lap 21 and held off a big challenge from Kalib Henry following a caution with just three laps to go to score his 28th career win at “The Track That Action Built.” It is Henry’s 14th career All Star victory and his fifth overall win of 2026.

“I’m glad we finally broke our streak of finishing fifth every night. My guys have worked their butts off this week and I’m glad I could finally reward them. Last year we screwed up on the speedweek finale and it cost us the championship. Hopefully we don’t do that tomorrow but Danny (Dietrich) is pretty good at Wayne County so we will have to step up our game,” said Henry.

Thomas grabbed the early lead of the 35-lap feature with Tim Shaffer, Kalib Henry, Darin Naida and Ryan Newton in tow. Cap Henry, who started seventh, moved into the top five by lap five as Thomas pulled away from a terrific battle for second between Shaffer and Kalib Henry. Cap Henry moved into third by lap 10 as the leaders hit lapped traffic.

Cap took second from Kalib Henry on lap 13 and three laps later had closed the game to leader Thomas. Following a caution on lap 19, Cap Henry immediately put pressure to the outside of Thomas and took the lead on lap 21.

With five laps to go Cap’s lead was over two seconds as Thomas and Kalib Henry battled for second. A caution with just three laps to go allowed Kalib Henry to shoot to the outside of Thomas on the restart and grab second and immediately closed on Cap Henry. Kalib took a couple of peaks to Cap’s outside but good not get the pass as Cap took the checkers over Kalib Henry, Thomas, Naida and Bryce Lucius.

In the Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprints Tyler Shullick looked headed to his second career Fremont Speedway win, but Bryan Sebetto had other plans.

Sebetto was the only car in the top five to go to the top of the track and following a caution on lap 18, raced side by side with Shullick until taking the lead with just five laps to go. Sebetto earned his third win of the year at Fremont and his 31st career victory at the track over Shullick, Jimmy McGrath, Dustin Dinan and Jamie Miller.
