MB Customs
Clinches Sixth Miller Welders USMTS Manufacturers
Championship
With
three events still remaining for the Summit USMTS
National Championship presented by RacinDirt, MB Customs
Race Cars has mathematically eliminated all challengers
in the Miller Welders USMTS Manufacturers Championship
for the 2022 season.
This marks a record-setting
sixth title for the builder from Menomonie, Wis.,
spearheaded by Dirt Late Model Hall-of-Famer Jimmy Mars.
While this title ties MB Customs with Hughes Racing
Chassis and Skyrocket Chassis as companies with four
straight titles, it also breaks a tie with Hughes for
the most Manufacturers Championships overall.

another colossol finish. It all comes down to Halloween

three of the most popular dirt ovals on the campaign
trail.
Opening night of the tripleheader will
take place Thursday, Oct. 27, at the popular Tri-State
Speedway in Pocola, Okla., for the inaugural USMTS King
of the Ring.
On Friday, Oct. 28, the series heads
