Winchester 400

Credentialed Motorsport Photographer | Winchester, IN, October 2026

From the dirt to the asphalt, this is where you find stunning images and media to show off your weekend in Winchester.

Trusted by champions. Credentialed at the sport's biggest nights.

I'm Mike Powell, a motorsport photographer based in Michigan.

I spend my race weekends trackside, not in the stands, capturing the moments that separate a good race photo from one a team, driver, or publication actually needs to use. This October, I'm bringing that same access and eye to the Winchester 400.

The 2026 Winchester 400 Weekend

The Winchester 400 returns to Winchester Speedway, the legendary "World's Fastest Half Mile," October 9–11, 2026. Now in its 55th year, the event has grown into one of asphalt short-track racing's crown jewel weekends, with fields of Super Late Models, Late Model Sportsman, and Street Stocks competing across the CRA Super Series and ASA STARS National Tour, alongside Midwest Modifieds and Thunder Roadsters rounding out the weekend's action. Held on Winchester's steep 37-degree banked turns, the marquee 400-lap Winchester 400 has launched the careers of racing legends like Rusty Wallace and Mark Martin, making it a must-attend event on the short-track racing calendar.
