The fourth season of the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota takes eleven drivers on a championship chase that features a diverse set of Series veterans and fresh rookies.
The roster includes the reigning Series champion, five rookie contenders, and five Midget veterans that look to add their names to the list of champions.
The Midgets will take center stage in six states across a 27-race campaign that opens at Farmer City Raceway’s World of Outlaws Illini 100 and closes at the inaugural Xtreme Outlaw Midget World Championship at Millbridge Speedway.
Here’s a look at the Xtreme Class of 2025:

Carr joins the Keith Kunz squad behind the wheel of the J. Davidson Scrap Metal No. 98K, with only two previous Midget events under his belt at the Southern Illinois Center in December and the Chili Bowl Nationals presented by NOS Energy Drink at the Tulsa Expo Center in January.

The 20-year-old Buckeye State driver is making the most of his opportunity with his first Chili Bowl A-Main Feature in a 17th-place effort, then earned two podium results at Creek County Speedway and Port City Raceway before capturing his first win of 2025 on the second night at Port City.
Tyler Edwards | Salina, OK | Mounce/Stout Motorsports No. 56 – With a full year of Xtreme Outlaw Midget experience, Tyler Edwards returns for his second season as the pilot for Mounce/Stout Motorsports.
In his rookie season driving the Stanton-powered No. 56 machine, “Teddy” picked up a career-high fourth-place finish at Atomic Speedway and seven additional top-10 results for ninth in the final points standings.
The sophomore Series racer showed improvement in the early months with his first A-Main start in the Chili Bowl and his first career top-10 finish with the OCRS Sprint Cars at Arrowhead Speedway.
Michael Faccinto | Hanford, CA | Trifecta Motorsports No. 5U – Faccinto joins Trifecta Motorsports full-time in 2025 after spending the last two years as a driver for their Chili Bowl Nationals roster.
The Californian earned his first A-Main top-10 with Trifecta at the Chili Bowl in 2024 and possesses the 2022 USAC Western States Midget Series championship as he gets set to chase the Xtreme Rookie of the Year recognition.
Working with Trifecta in previous years, Faccinto has familiar company as Bobby “Janky” Millser will turn the wrenches on the No. 5U Stanton-powered Midget.
Alex Karpowicz | Spring Branch, TX | Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports No. 72 – The 21-year-old Texan is moving up from the regional level to national with his debut in the No. 72 Midget for Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports.
Karpowicz is a veteran of Micro Sprints with two NOW600 Stock Non-Wing Division championships between 2022-2023 and wins across the Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana regions.

The Missouri native got a taste of what to expect with the Series when he piloted a Midget for TKH Motorsports and made his first start with Trifecta at the 2024 Series finale at Jacksonville Speedway.
Key has kept his schedule diverse with open-wheel cars in 2025, sitting behind the wheel of the Beaver Racing No. 12X with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars at Volusia Speedway Park and a top-10 with Trifecta at Creek County.
Chase McDermand | Springfield, IL | Chase McDermand Racing No. 40 – McDermand has a new chapter of his racing career to create in 2025 as he becomes an owner-driver for his Xtreme Outlaw Midgets campaign.
The Springfield, IL native got a taste of what to expect as an owner when he fielded cars for himself, NASCAR Cup Series driver Josh Bilicki, and Steven Snyder Jr at the Chili Bowl before earning his first top-10 of 2025 at the Turnpike Challenge at Creek County Speedway.
McDermand has the second-most all-time Feature wins (eight) and top-five points finishes in 2023 and 2024 as he hopes to leave the year as the first owner-driver champion in Series history.
Cannon McIntosh | Bixby, OK | Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports No. 71K – McIntosh returns to the Xtreme Outlaw Midgets as a reigning champion seeking to break more records in 2025.

Gavin Miller | Allentown, PA | Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports No. 97 – Miller is back to chase an Xtreme title by pressing the reset button from a chaotic 2024 season.
