It’s been a frustrating season for sprint car racer Adrian Tetreault, but despite a relentless string of rainouts, he is finding ways to stay focused, connected, and optimistic about the remainder of the 2025 season.

“This is the worst year I can remember for rainouts,” Tetreault shared. “It’s not just the Northeast or the Southeast—it’s been bad everywhere. And with limited seat time, it’s been hard to build momentum.”

Earlier this month, Tetreault made the long haul to Benton, Missouri, where he competed in a mixed-field sprint car event that even included a 410 competitor. Despite a late-race vibration issue, he brought the car home with a 10th-place finish.

“We were right there in lap times,” he said. “The car felt good until those late cautions. I couldn’t tell if the vibration was from mud or a potential engine issue, and being a one-motor program, I had to play it safe.”

While the racing was solid, it was Kids Night at Benton Speedway that left a lasting impression. With free grandstand admission for all fans and an on-track meet-and-greet, the event created a special atmosphere.

“They brought everyone down to the track, and those kids looked at us like we were rock stars,” Tetreault said. “It was one of the best nights I’ve ever experienced as a driver. The smiles, the excitement—there’s nothing better than seeing that kind of joy and knowing we’re inspiring the next generation of racers and fans.”

Since then, Tetreault has torn through the fuel system and plugs, using every tool available to diagnose the mystery vibration. “Everything looks right, but I won’t know for sure until we’re back on the track.”

Tetreault returns to action this August 2 at East Alabama Motor Speedway with the Southern Sprint Car Association Renegades—an organization he’s committed to for the 2025 season.

“With a single motor, I have to be selective about where I race,” he said. “If something breaks, it could take us out for the season, and I don’t want to let the series down.”

Outside of the car, Adrian has worked hard to maintain visibility and engagement on social media, using photos, sponsor spotlights, and video content to keep fans updated.

“We’ve had some fun with sponsor content—trying to keep it candid and real—but I’ve also re-worked some pieces at the request of a few partners. If they’re supporting me, I want to represent them the best I can.”

Speaking of sponsors, Midas Automotive has emerged as a key partner for the Tetreault team this season.

“They’ve been incredible,” he said. “Ron and the team have been open to ideas, and we’re cooking up something big for next year. I can’t say much yet, but let’s just say you may see us step into a new chapter.”

Midas has already made waves in the national motorsports scene, appearing on an ARCA car at both Talladega and Indy, and their partnership with Baker River Racing could lead to even bigger developments for 2026.

In the meantime, Adrian is taking a rare break from the grind with a trip to Central Pennsylvania. He’ll be at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday, August 15, catching up with fans on the iconic Beer Hill before heading to visit family in his native New England.

“I’m a transplant from the Northeast,” he said. “So it’s always good to come back. I’ll have stickers, maybe a few shirts—fans can shoot me a message on social and I’ll bring your order up with me.
