When it mattered most with the championship pressure at an all-time high, Rico Abreu stepped up to the plate and delivered arguably the most important win of his 2025 season.

Driving from third-to-first, passing Daryn Pittman in lap traffic at halfway, Abreu made it a dozen Casm Safety Products Win Stickers with Kubota High Limit Racing this year and earned his 24th career trip to Whiskey Myers Victory Lane with the series.

Heading into the finale of the Bikini Zone All-In Championship Weekend on Saturday, Abreu now holds a 25-point advantage over Ridge & Sons Racing in the owner points and a 40-point lead over Brad Sweet in the driver points. If he finished 10th or better tomorrow, he’ll become a national champion with Kubota High Limit Racing.

Also locking-in for Saturday’s $50,000-to-win finale was fellow podium finishers Daryn Pittman and Giovanni Scelzi.

For Pittman, Friday marked the third time that he started on the pole, led laps, and finished runner-up in Fort Worth. He’ll have to wait one more day to try and score his first-career Kubota High Limit Racing victory.

For Scelzi, it was his fifth podium finish with the series since climbing in the Clauson-Marshall Racing, NOS Energy Drink #7BC in August. That was a big point swing as the CMR team battles Murray-Marks Motorsports for fourth in the owner points.

Closing out the top-10 on Friday was Brad Sweet, Daison Pursley, Aaron Reutzel, Ryan Timms, Brent Marks, Justin Sanders, and Tanner Thorson.
