Mitch Gibbs only ran part-time this season for the O'Hare Racing team, but in 2012 that will change. Gibbs has announced the team will run weekly on Friday nights at I-88 Speedway. He later reported in an interview on DougsDirtDiary.com that he may also run Utica Rome Speedway and do some select traveling.

Asphalt modified star, turned dirt modified chauffeur Jimmy Blewett has announced that he will add a second weekly home track to his schedule in 2012. He will run Friday nights at Big Diamond Speedway along with his weekly racing at New Egypt Speedway on Saturday nights. He also is already looking towards Super DIRT Week in October, where he will make his first attempt at the S.E.F. 200.

Multi-time Mercer Raceway Park track champion, Frank Guidace, will have a family member racing against him in 2012. Frank's 16-year old daughter, Makayla Guidace, will be a weekly competitor in the 358 division at Mercer next season. Makayla ran hot laps for Frank for most of the season, but did not run an actual race yet.
