Myles Moos shared that he will return to race with Brent McKinnon Racing for the 2026 season and is contemplating chasing the MARS Late Model Championship while also looking to acquire a new Rocket Chassis for his family-run team.
Moos informed StockCarReport.com, “Plan is to drive for Brent [McKinnon] again, and I’m working on getting a Rocket for my family owned team. May try and run the MARS series.”
The MARS series announced a 30 race schedule at 21 tracks and some of the best in the country including Farmer City, Macon Speedway, and Fairbury. The series also announced its $80,000+ point fund with $25,000 going to the champion.
Moos competed in 8 of the 29 MARS features this past year and had 3 top 10s.

Moos joined Brent McKinnon Racing back in 2024 replacing Bob Gardner. In a Facebook post announcing the change, Moos said at the time, “I’m very grateful that Brent reached out to me to give me this opportunity. It’s been a struggle with my own team this year dealing with engine issues, but we still had some good runs. I know Brent has really good equipment and for him to trust me to put his car up-front means the world.”
McKinnon added, “We’re excited to get Myles into our Rocket (Chassis) XR1. He’s been close to some big victories and we feel we can get that big one for him and our team before the end of the year. Myles isn’t afraid to get up on the wheel and push the car, he’s a hard worker and will do whatever it takes to get to the race track. That’s what we need and are excited to see.”
As for his family-owned car, Moos was public about his struggles with his Barry Wright Chassis back in November. After finishing 4th at Springfield Raceway for the Turkey Bowl XIX, Moos shared, “Anyone who knows or has been around me this year knows I was skeptic If the old Barry Wright Race Cars had anything left In her especially after the nasty wreck at the dome last year. We struggled really bad with It the few races we ran at the beginning of the year. It was put away In May and hadn’t even been pulled out of the shop since then.”
However, he noted he did a complete tear down and rebuild and found some major issues and was able to get it feeling “a lot better.” So much so that he posted the second fastest time in hot laps, stormed through his heat race from 10th to win it, and brought it home fourth in the feature.
Nevertheless, Moos explained to me why he’s switching to a Rocket, “With Brent [McKinnon] owning one and the tech support it’s hard to go wrong.”
“I think you will see a mixup this year,” he continued. “People gotta start doing something different if they want to win. Watching the same 4-5 guys win every weekend won’t work out for long. It goes in 3-4 year cycles.”
