WAYNESFIELD, Ohio — It was nearly a decade ago that Devin Dobie from nearby Wapakoneta, Ohio, scored his first sprint car feature win and it was at Waynesfield Raceway Park.
Dobie celebrated that anniversary Sunday, May 25, leading all 25 laps of the Great Lakes Super Sprints feature on Salute to Our Heroes Night to kick off the 2025 season at “The Field.”
“I consider this my home track. After last season it didn’t look good for the future of Waynesfield. Thankfully Rich Farmer stepped up. The track was amazing,” said Dobie.
Dobie had to survive a hand full of restarts, holding off Bryan Sebetto and Kasey Jedrzejek for his second career GLSS win.
“I knew I had to change things up on each restart. I lost a couple of races because I kept doing the same thing on restarts,” said Dobie.
In the UMP Modifieds, Jeff Koz charged from his sixth starting spot to take the lead from Dusty Moore with just five laps to go to score the win.
In the Dirt Pro Trucks, it was a father and son battle throughout the feature with the son, Joey Heyder, holding off several challenges from his dad Rolly for the victory.
