Estenson Racing proved once again why they are at the forefront of American Flat Track competition, with standout performances from Tom Drane and Dallas Daniels at the iconic DuQuoin Mile on July 5, 2025.
Tom Drane – AFT Singles
Tom Drane continued his relentless charge toward the AFT Singles championship with a nail-biting victory at the DuQuoin Mile. The Australian phenom edged out his competition by just two hundredths of a second in a photo-finish, extending his lead in the championship standings.
This win came on the heels of his dominant weekend at the Lima Half-Mile doubleheader one week earlier, where he swept both Friday’s Mission Triple Challenge and Saturday’s main event. Drane has now accumulated 13 career wins in the AFT Singles class and is tied for the second-most Half-Mile victories in series history.
At just 18 years old, Drane is rapidly building a legacy of consistency, speed, and raw racecraft. His recent streak of wins cements his status as the title favorite for 2025.
Dallas Daniels – AFT SuperTwins
Dallas Daniels, riding the Estenson Racing Yamaha MT-07 DT, showcased his elite form during back-to-back race weekends. At the Lima Half-Mile I, Daniels delivered a spectacular performance across the debut of the Mission Triple Challenge format. He won the opening sprint, finished second in the second main, and came from behind to take the overall win after a late-race error from rival Briar Bauman.
Daniels returned the next night for Lima Half-Mile II and kept the momentum going with another runner-up finish—marking his 21st consecutive podium in AFT SuperTwins competition. At the DuQuoin Mile, he remained firmly in the mix, continuing his push toward the season championship.
As the series heads into the second half of the season, Daniels is within striking distance of the points lead, backed by a string of consistent finishes and a clear hunger to reclaim the top step of the podium.
Looking Ahead
With Tom Drane leading the AFT Singles championship and Dallas Daniels locked in a tight battle in the SuperTwins class, Estenson Racing enters the next rounds with momentum and confidence. Their next challenge comes July 18 at Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri.
If recent results are any indication, Estenson Racing is not just chasing titles — they’re setting the pace.
