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.

Thank you Kelli Kelly.Comment publication date: 3/21/26, 8:12 AMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon ManComment author: Bob SondgrothComment text: There are times when you should just know about someone. Who and what they REALLY were. Because they were devotional and IMPORTANT to the humans they connected with. The content of their life bled so that others could feel their own life’s importance. Teachers of justifiable life and art. That all can absorb and use as the best fertilizer for THEIR lives. Giving the silent secrets and the loud guidance. The Melon Man was a perfect specimen for how to devote. His passing meant a life book of feeling/knowing what gives other humans their paths to Love and Knowledge. Some humans are meant to show others their paths. And in that they secrete ways to profitably exist.Comment publication date: 3/18/26, 4:50 PMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon ManComment author: Pam BitschenauerComment text: Ken, thank you for your kind words about Scott our "Mellon Man". My husband and I used to visit with Scott quite often when we lived in Fallon and then whenever we had the chance to as we passed through town. He was truly a good person and will be sorely missed.Comment publication date: 3/18/26, 3:15 PMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon Man
