The World Series of Asphalt launches tonight at New Smyrna Speedway, and Round 1 immediately sets the tone with the Street Stocks—a division where patience is optional, traffic is guaranteed, and the tiniest mistake becomes a full-time job for the tow truck.
This series is all about proving you can conquer every division across the full World Series of Asphalt slate—but Street Stocks also stand on their own. If this is your comfort zone, you can focus on your discipline and still claim the title of World Series of Asphalt Champion (Street Stocks) by owning this car when it matters most.

The Only New Smyrna Street Stock Notebook We’ve Got
We’ve only had one Street Stock race at New Smyrna in ICL so far—and it gave us a clear headline:
Brayden E Carter has already shown he knows how to win here.
In that May 27th race, Carter started on pole, led 21 of 30 laps, and sealed the deal over Jeremy Webber, who kept the pressure on and led 9 laps of his own. Behind them, Kaleb Smith2 and Travis Andersen rounded out the front pack, while the rest of the field learned the same lesson New Smyrna always teaches: this place doesn’t care how fast you are if you can’t stay clean.
All-Time Pavement Short Track Street Stock Trends
When you zoom out to the all-time ICL Street Stock stats on pavement short tracks, two names sit at the center of almost every conversation:
Casey Wynn
-
A true benchmark in this discipline: 18 starts, 7 wins (39%), and a jaw-dropping 17 top-5s (94%) with a 2.2 average finish.
-
He’s also been a qualifying menace with 7 poles, and when he’s out front he tends to stay there—240 laps led with 131 fastest laps across his body of work.
Brayden E Carter
-
The volume and consistency king: 21 starts, 7 wins (33%), 18 top-5s (86%), and a 2.9 average finish.
-
Carter’s already cashed in at New Smyrna, and his long-run pace is backed by numbers: 139 laps led and 116 fastest laps—the kind of stats that translate when the track gets slick and the race gets messy.
So the storyline is simple: Wynn is the discipline’s gold standard, but Carter is the guy who already put New Smyrna in his win column—and now we get to see who writes the next chapter.
The Wild Cards to Watch
The Street Stocks always leave room for a surprise, and the stats show plenty of drivers with the ceiling to steal the spotlight if they keep it straight:
-
Brock Tolbert has proven he can finish races and land in the mix.
-
Aaron Stoltz has shown flashes, but New Smyrna punishes impatience—clean laps will be the whole story.
-
And don’t sleep on anyone who qualifies mid-pack but survives early: Street Stocks at New Smyrna can turn into a positioning war in a hurry.
What Wins Tonight
At New Smyrna, Street Stocks reward three things:
-
A clean first 10 minutes (survive the chaos)
-
Exit speed off the corners (don’t cook the right-front)
-
Smart passes (because “send it” usually becomes “tow it”)
If Carter repeats his early control from last time, everyone’s racing for second. If Wynn gets in rhythm, the numbers say he’s almost automatic. Either way, Round 1 is going to set the tone for the entire World Series of Asphalt.
