Five Star at the DIRTcar Summer Nationals

Trackside Recap with Dan Robinson

At the DIRTcar Summer Nationals stop at Wilmot Raceway, MD3 Dirt Modified Plastic Body Panels generated significant interest from racers, with several IMCA Modified competitors stopping by to praise their durability while others explored making the switch to MD3 products. Conversations throughout the evening focused on practical performance topics such as decal adhesion, with racers eager to learn proper application techniques for Five Star’s Adhesion Promoter to improve wrap longevity. The event also provided valuable opportunities to gather product feedback, including insights from Wisconsin WingLESS Sprint Car driver Colin Sivia, who showcased one of Five Star’s new Sprint Car bodies and offered suggestions while expressing satisfaction with its performance and appearance. The newly released thin long-sleeve Five Star hoodies remained a popular seller, and the new point-of-sale system continued to prove its value by allowing convenient tap and credit card purchases at the booth. As Five Star’s hometown track, Wilmot offered a unique atmosphere, bringing together company ownership, employees, families, and local racers for an evening celebrating the products built just down the road. One memorable sight in the pits came courtesy of Jason Feger, who creatively used MD3 Dirt Late Model nose filler panel material to temporarily repair damage to his motorhome after hitting a deer. For Dan Robinson, the highlight of the evening was enjoying the races from the grandstands alongside Carl and Garrett Schultz while watching longtime Five Star supporter Jason Feger score a dominant victory. Looking ahead, the Road Tour shifts its focus to an exciting stretch of sprint car events, beginning with the ASCS National Tour at the legendary Belleville High Banks Speedway, where racers will have another opportunity to see the aerodynamic advantages of the new Five Star Sprint Car body in action.
