Peltier Brown Snowball Derby

The organization will field entries in both the Allen Turner Snowflake 125 and the 58th annual Snowball Derby, showcasing its growing footprint in late model racing and its continued commitment to driver development.


Gabe Brown Set for Snowflake 125 Debut with SPS Racing:


Rising New Hampshire short-track standout Gabe Brown, of Center Conway, will make his first career appearance at Five Flags Speedway, competing in Saturday’s prestigious Allen Turner Snowflake 125.


Brown will drive the No. 24 P1 Chassis entry with crew chief Garrett Wallace and spotter Tyler Deering. His effort is supported by key partners Bolt Depot, HK Powersports and Firm Foundations.


Entering the weekend with momentum from a strong season in the American-Canadian Tour (ACT), Brown has cemented himself as one of the series’ most competitive young drivers.


“I’m grateful for the opportunity with SPS Racing to run the Snowflake 125,” said Brown. “With the support of Preston Peltier and Garrett Wallace, we’ve built an incredible relationship, and I’m confident in the P1 chassis they’ve brought me.


“We have high expectations, and I hope I can deliver the results SPS deserves. We had a strong test day with only minor adjustments, and I believe we’ll have a really good race car and a great chance at winning the Allen Turner Snowflake 125.”


Brown’s debut highlights SPS Racing’s continued commitment to developing emerging talent through its late model and driver development programs.


Practice begins on Thursday, December 4, with qualifying on race day, December 6, at 4:00 p.m. ET, followed by 125 laps later that night at 8:00 p.m. ET, live on FloRacing.com.

Preston Peltier Returns to Snowball Derby Competition with SPS Racing:


Veteran short-track star Preston Peltier, of Kimberly, Idaho, will make his return to Five Flags Speedway for the 58th Annual Snowball Derby, marking his first Derby start in two years.


Peltier will pilot the No. 48 P1 Chassis backed by crew chief Brian Ray and spotter Tyler Deering. With a career-best Derby finish of fifth, Peltier enters the weekend with renewed focus after spending the past two seasons dedicated to chassis building and development.


“I’m thankful for the opportunity from Ed Vecchiarelli, Generator Source and SPS Racing for the chance to try this race one more time,” said Peltier.


“After taking the past two years off to focus on building chassis, I’m ready to get back behind the wheel. We’ve put a tremendous amount of effort into this car, and I’m looking forward to competing at the level this race demands.”


Peltier’s return brings veteran strength and experience to SPS Racing’s Snowball Derby lineup, reinforcing the team’s long-standing connection to grassroots racing.


Practice begins on Thursday, December 4, with qualifying under the lights on Friday, December 5 at 7:00 p.m. ET, followed by 300 laps on Sunday, December 7 at 2:00 p.m. ET, live on FloRacing.com.
