Daison Pursley finally claimed victory at Ocala Speedway's Winter Dirt Games XVI finale, earning $10,000 in the 35-lap USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship feature event.

After five consecutive podium finishes, Pursley broke through in his CB Industries/Avanti Windows & Doors entry, marking his third career USAC National Sprint Car victory. Starting from third position, he strategically worked his way past Brady Bacon and race leader Mitchel Moles to take command on lap 21.

Pursley successfully defended multiple restart challenges in the closing laps, ultimately crossing the finish line 0.351 seconds ahead of Brady Bacon. Kyle Cummins, Justin Grant, and Mitchel Moles completed the top five.

The victory was especially significant for team owner Chad Boat, marking his first USAC National Sprint Car win as an owner since July 2009.

Kyle Cummins secured the 2025 Winter Dirt Games championship and $5,000 bonus, tied with Pursley at 449 points but winning the tiebreaker with two feature victories. Jadon Rogers earned the Hughes Racing Passing Master title with 39 passes throughout the six-race Florida swing.

Chase Stockon demonstrated impressive recovery, advancing from 23rd to 13th in the main event after early setbacks, earning the Inferno Armor's Fire Move of the Night award.

The USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship returns to action on April 4, 2025, at Paragon Speedway in Indiana.
