Sheffer, Jr is Michigan Winged Sprint Car Power Rankings Champion




At the start of the 2024 season, the Michigan Winged Sprint Car Power Rankings Presented by Home Pro Roofing was wide open to any driver who raced in the Mitten State. With weekly racing at Butler Motor Speedway including the high caliber traveling divisions that were scheduled to visit including the High Limit Racing, plus the ultra competitive Michigan CAT Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by Engine Pro and ARP, the Must See Racing Sprint Cars, and the Tri State Sprints all contributing to the Power Rankings and many drivers crossing over, it was anyone's guess who would master Michigan's tricky race tracks.

In the early season, some out of towners put their name in the hat for a chance at the Championship like Zane DeVault, Kasey Jedrzejek, and Bryce Lucius. However, as the year wore on, the familiar names of Dustin Daggett, Jason Blonde, Van Gurley, Jr, and Max Stambaugh (who won last year's Power Rankings' Title) rose to the top.


At the midway part of the summer, Max Stambaugh had solidified himself atop the Rankings and looked to be well on his way to defending his title. Meanwhile, then Rhino Racing teammates, Jason Blonde and Keith Sheffer, Jr began trading the second and third spots behind Stambaugh. Then, as the end of the year closed in, Sheffer continued to improve each night he unloaded, including moving to the Home Pro Racing stable to finish out the year. As Stambaugh and his Smith Motorsports team focused on the Great Lakes Super Sprints title and less on racing on off night's in Michigan, Sheffer was able to close out the HPH Power Rankings Title.



Sheffer finished the season with a total of 18 Top 10s, 14 Top 5s, and three feature wins; Stambaugh had 14 Top 10s in Michigan, 12 Top 5s, and four feature wins; Van Gurley, Jr finished with 14 Top 10s, 12 Top 5s, and a pair of feature wins at Butler Motor Speedway.
