Ken Quartuccio Wins Radial vs the World & Resets RvW Record at Lights Out 17

On February 22, 2026, Ken Quartuccio captured the Radial vs the World win at Lights Out 17 at South Georgia Motorsports Park, resetting the RvW record in the process.

Quartuccio recorded a 3.436 at 214.76 MPH, establishing a new benchmark for the Radial vs the World class at one of the most competitive small tire events of the year.

Record Performance in RvW Competition

Radial vs the World continues to push the limits of small tire performance, and a 3.436 at over 214 MPH reflects the level required to win at this stage.

Quartuccio’s combination features a Proline Racing engine, with tuning handled by Steve Petty. The pairing has consistently proven competitive at the front of the field, and Lights Out 17 added another major result to that list.

As part of the Scott Tidwell Racing team, Quartuccio and the group continue to operate at the highest level in radial competition, combining power, data, and execution throughout eliminations.

Lights Out 17 once again delivered a stacked Radial vs the World field at South Georgia Motorsports Park in Adel, Georgia. The event remains a key stop on the Radial Outlaws Racing Series schedule and a proving ground for the quickest small tire cars in the country.

With a final round victory and a new 3.436 at 214.76 MPH record on the board, Ken Quartuccio leaves Adel with both the RvW win and a reset mark for the class.
