2020 USRA Modified National Champion Lucas Schott

USRA Director of Track Operations Bryce Hall, in conjunction with RacinDirt.com, recently spoke with 2020 USRA Modified National Champion Lucas Schott to discuss this past year in the Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series and what lies ahead for the 24-year-old from Chatfield, Minnesota.

Returning to the top of the heap in the USRA Modified division, Schott enjoyed a solid season en route to his second Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national title. His first came in 2016.

Despite being winless at his home track Deer Creek Speedway, Schott scored 15 victories during the 2020 campaign, many times having to travel away from his home state due to government restrictions surrounding COVID-19. ‘Cool Hand Luke’ racked up five wins at the Hamilton County Speedway in Webster City, Iowa—including a victory in the Summit USRA Nationals—and four at the Mississippi Thunder Speedway in Fountain City, Wisconsin.

He was a three-time winner at the Mason City Motor Speedway in Mason City, Iowa, and added four more wins at four different racetracks in four states: Sports Park Raceway in Fort Dodge, Iowa; Longdale Speedway in Longdale, Oklahoma; Monarch Motor Speedway in Wichita Falls, Texas; and a win on November 1 in the season finale at the Humboldt Speedway in Humboldt, Kansas.

The win at Humboldt was a spectacular one as he started the main event on the front row alongside 2015 USRA Modified national champ Jake Gallardo of Las Cruces, New Mexico—his lone challenger for the 2020 title. Schott went on to take the win and pocket $5,000 for his efforts.

It was the second straight USRA Modified crown for a Gopher State racer and the ninth overall for a competitor from the Land of 10,000 Lakes. Schott earned $10,000 for his USRA Modified national championship plus additional cash in the PBM Performance Products Northern Region and track points funds plus numerous contingency awards.
