Intermediate Isolation… Mason Massey and the No. 19 Mongoose Power
Solutions team head to Phoenix Raceway for race 12 of the 2026 ARCA
Menards Series West (AMSW) season. The Diamond Desert Casino West Valley
100 will be the AMSW’s second visit to the one-mile oval this season.
“The Desert Jewel” is coming off  the ARCA Menards Series / AMSW
combination event in March when  Massey finished  fifth-place in a stout
40-car field, the second highest West Series finisher.

Phoenix Files… Massey’s 100-career NASCAR national series starts will
serve well as the series heads back to the only intermediate oval on the
schedule. The driver hailing from Douglasville, Ga. has three NASCAR
Xfinity Series starts at Phoenix to his credit and his previous two
races resulted in a finish at least 11 positions higher than where he
started. Bill McAnally Racing (BMR) has recorded five wins with five
different drivers at Phoenix since 2002. The team’s most recent AMSW
championship title came in 2021, when 2027 NASCAR Cup Series driver
Jesse Love clinched the championship at Phoenix Raceway.

third in the championship standings, three points out from the second
position. Massey has achieved two wins, seven top-five’s, and eight
top-10s to this point in the season. He has led 36 laps and carries an
average finish of 7.1. Approaching the final two races at repeat tracks,
Massey and the Mongoose Power Solutions team are confident they can get
back to victory lane before the season wraps up.

Mason Massey Quote:

“I am really optimistic for this weekend, because we got to race here
back in March with a super tough field and we finished top-five. Now,
not only do we have notes from the spring race, but our speed has
improved tremendously on the short tracks in the last three or so races
that I hope will transfer over to Phoenix. It’s a track that’s much
more in my wheelhouse with my NASCAR experience, so I’m looking
forward to it..  This is Mongoose Power Solutions’ last race this
year, so hopefully we can get them back in victory lane like we did at
Kern.”
