At just 14 years old, Corbin Seay is doing more than learning how to drive—he’s mastering 900 horsepower of raw speed. 

The Fallon native is tearing up dirt tracks across the West in a 360-sprint car, one of the most competitive and unforgiving divisions in dirt racing. During a fast and furious night at Ocean Speedway in Watsonville, California, an announcer introduced a young Nevadan—Jeremy Chisholm of Fallon—on the Michaels Reno Power Sports-sponsored machine, noting, “Now Jeremy Chisholm out of Fallon, Nevada...just turned 14 years old. I don’t know what you were doing at 14, but I was not driving a 900-horsepower sprint car.” 

The same can be said of Corbin Seay, who’s making a name for himself on that very same circuit. 

Seay has been behind the wheel since age six. By eight, he was winning national titles. Today, he stands among a rare group of teens licensed to compete in the 360-sprint car class—a high-speed, high-stakes division where most drivers are twice his age. 

Racing runs deep in Seay’s roots. He is the grandson of longtime Fallon residents Skip and Lou Carrica and the son of the family behind Momma’s Meat Company, a local business known for its generous portions and even bigger heart. Whether it’s race fuel or community meals, the Seay family keeps things running. 

Though Corbin is the one handling the horsepower, racing remains a family affair. His younger sister, a standout gymnast with Top Gun Gymnastics, recently took home an Xcel Silver award at the 2025 Nevada State Gymnastics Championships. She’s also part of Corbin’s pit crew, making this more than just a solo pursuit. 

Corbin’s talent hasn’t gone unnoticed. With a growing fan base and the support of Corbin Seay Motorsports on Facebook, he’s earning recognition on the national sprint car scene. Photos, videos, and race updates showcase a young driver with poise far beyond his years. 

While Corbin sets his sights on checkered flags from coast to coast, his family continues to cheer him on from the sidelines—and from behind the counter at Momma’s Meat Company. 

From local dirt to national spotlight, Fallon is in Corbin’s corner.

Comment author: Jeff goings Comment text: September 11, article Civics 101 I would like to commend Rachael Dahl and the Fallon post for their article. Civics 101. This is a reminder that we as citizens live in a representative form of government and why it is so important that we vote as voting is our way of making our voice heard.

When we bought our land in Kingston, Sis regaled us with her stories of gatherings at the old restaurant & bar on the way to Groves lake. Sis often said, 'What happens in Kingston stays in Kingston!' Fun & funny lady. Comment publication date: 9/8/26, 5:58 PM Comment source: Marilyn J. “Sis” Banovich Comment author: Ruth Fiege Comment text: So sorry for the pain your family is suffering. She is in comfort of Jesus arms. This is Ruth Fiege, Gary's cousin from WI. I can't begin to imagine the pain your family is suffering. So much comfort in knowing she and baby are with Jesus.
