Lattomus Begins To Shine: Everything Is Starting To Click

Consistency is a good thing. Consistency allows a team to establish a connection between their actions and the results.

Preston Lattomus has been the definition of consistent so far during the 2026 sprint car season. He has performed well in qualifying and faced similar challenges later in the event most nights.

The Capitol Custom Trailers and Coaches, EZGO / Golf Cart Services, Betts Garage, Magoo’s Motorsickles No.91 team is working hard to build on that solid foundation to find the key to reaching the next level of performance.

THE RESULTS

Lattomus opened the month of April with a two-race weekend at Williams Grove and Lincoln Speedways. He achieved a 410 sprint car career first by winning his heat race both nights. He started on the front row in both main events, finishing 9th and 5th.

Over the most recent weekend, Lattomus raced at Port Royal Speedway and BAPS Motor Speedway, again starting out strong by qualifying 4th quickest in his group both nights and posting 3rd place finishes in his heat race both nights.

Lattomus started 14th and 10th, respectively, in those A-mains and finished 16th in both.

BREAKING IT DOWN

So, what challenges has Lattomus faced in the A-mains that have affected his finishes?

“Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve had plenty of speed in the beginning of the night, with qualifying shows and heat races that have been good enough to put us starting up front in the feature. I think the biggest thing for me in the feature is just racing with the other cars,” Lattomus explained.

The reason for falling short of translating potential into desired results? Sometimes it’s not as simple as ‘missing the setup’.

It’s been said that driving winged 410 sprint cars is like strapping yourself to a rocket and trying to steer it. Making all the right moves and decisions behind the wheel to get the most out of a sprint car is an art that one learns over time through experience.

Lattomus continued. “For me, the racecraft of passing isn’t a big deal, but I need to work on the aero aspects. I need to do a better job of getting my wing speed up on the starts and restarts. I feel like I have lost every position on a restart, and I have to work extra hard to get it back.”

“The car has been very good the last couple of weeks, definitely better than what I have to show for it.”

It takes man and machine working together to get the desired results, and right now, Lattomus says his machine is ready, so he’s working hard to do his part.

Lattomus continued. “Racing more with the better cars helps, and I’m able to do that lately with the car having good speed throughout the night. I know the more I get to race up front, the more accustomed I will get to staying up front, and that’s what I look forward to.”

The Lewes, Delaware driver has proven to be a quick study at every level of racing he has taken on, and to further demonstrate that point, he is doing it again in what Tony Stewart has said are the toughest race cars on the planet to drive, winged 410 sprint cars.

“As far as my progress and development go, I am putting together some great laps every night, and it’s a big positive to have that kind of consistency. Last year, I really didn’t know what I was doing; this year, I understand what I need to do for the car to work to its potential,” Lattomus shared.

“Simply understanding what creates speed has been key for me. Yet, I maintain the mindset of improving each time I hit the track, focusing on different areas, whether it’s hitting my marks or driving the car as it is intended.”

UPCOMING PLANS

Lattomus will compete at Williams Grove and Lincoln Speedways in Pennsylvania this weekend. The Friday and Saturday shows are PA Posse 410 Sprint Car Series events, with the latter also being the annual Weldon Sterner Memorial.
