You don’t need a master’s degree in dirt Late Model racing to realize that Bobby Pierce has been the top driver in the sport this year.

Domination out of the No. 32 camp has been a common theme of the past four seasons. But as he inches closer to a third World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision championship, Pierce’s 2026 campaign has created some statistics that not only exceed everyone else in the pit area, but also some of his own benchmarks from years past.

Here’s a look at the numbers behind Pierce’s 2026 season:

18 – Pierce’s World of Outlaws win total in 2026. Not only has he already blown past his personal record of 14 wins in 2023, but he’s part of a tie for the single-season win record alongside Josh Richards (2016) and Brandon Sheppard (2017, 2019). With 14 races left on this season’s schedule, Pierce has a chance to smash the existing record if he keeps up his winning ways through the fall.

60 – the World of Outlaws win total Pierce is up to in his career. He’s the fourth driver in Series history to reach that mark after Sheppard, Richards, and Darrell Lanigan.

248 – the number of Feature starts Pierce needed to reach 60 wins. Out of the three drivers ahead of him on the all-time wins list, only Sheppard got there faster, winning his 60th World of Outlaws race in his 198th start at Lernerville Speedway in 2020.

6 – consecutive wins Pierce strung together in June. That tied the all-time Series record, a title Pierce shares with Lanigan (2012) and himself (2024).

45 – Pierce’s win percentage in World of Outlaws competition in 2026. That’s a major improvement over his career best of 36% in 2023, and it’s nearly on pace with the modern Series record of 46%, which was achieved in 2014 when Lanigan won 17 of the 37 races contested that season.

3.38 – Pierce’s average finish so far in 2026. It would be the best of his World of Outlaws career if he can maintain it through the end of the season, as well as the fourth-best average finish in the modern era of the Series behind Lanigan’s 2.70 in 2014, Sheppard’s 2.93 in 2019 and Sheppard’s 3.30 in 2017.

194 – cars Pierce has passed in Features this season. His win total and average finish are made more impressive by his average starting position of 8.23, the worst of his full-time World of Outlaws career.

8 – times Pierce has gained 10 or more positions in a Feature. For perspective, that’s something Pierce did five times in the first three years of his full-time World of Outlaws career combined. His deepest run of the season came at Volusia Speedway Park when he gained 18 spots driving from 21st to third in the Friday portion of Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals.

38 – the number of consecutive top 10s Pierce started the year with, demolishing his personal best of 18 in a row last year. The streak finally came to an end last Thursday at Cedar Lake Speedway when Pierce finished 12th on the first night of the USA Nationals.

552 – laps led in Feature competition. Pierce’s 33 laps out front on Saturday night at Cedar Lake Speedway brought him within one lap of his career-high of 553 in 2023. That means the No. 32 has been out front for 29% of the 1,902 laps turned this season.

18 – how many different tracks Pierce has won at this season. If he goes the rest of the season without winning somewhere more than once, it would be the first time he’s done so since joining the World of Outlaws full-time in 2023. Out of all the places Pierce has been victorious so far this season, 10 have been first-time additions to his Series wins list, while two came in his first visit to the track (Hendry County Motorsports Park and Georgetown Speedway).

3 – Pierce’s crown jewel total so far in 2026, having topped the Show-Me 100, Dirt Late Model Dream and the USA Nationals. He still has work to do to match his personal best of six in 2024, when he won the Prairie Dirt Classic, USA Nationals, North-South 100, World 100, Late Model Knoxville Nationals and the Dirt Track World Championship in an unstoppable three-month rampage.

24 – races Pierce has won across all of dirt Late Model racing this year. His mark to beat is 38 wins in 2024, and he’s nearly on pace to do that – Pierce’s 24th win of 2024 came in the Prairie Dirt Classic, only a week earlier than it did in 2026.

Pierce’s first opportunity to break the World of Outlaws single-season win record will come at Maquoketa Speedway in the World of Outlaws Hawkeye 100 on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 21-22. Get your tickets in advance by clicking here.
