Published: September 10, 2019 07:42 pm EDT

Driver Tyler Smith copped his 3,000th win when racing at Hollywood Dayton Raceway on Tuesday afternoon (Sept. 10).

The 26-year-old reinsman, who was the youngest driver in history to reach the 1,000 and 2,000-win milestones, captured three of the first six races in pursuit of his 3,000th score. Smith is on track to record his best year yet with 237 wins and over $3.2 million in 2019 earnings.

Smith has driven eight consecutive seasons with over 250 wins and banked over $3 million in purses the last seven consecutive years. Smith's fondest racing experience to date has been winning an elimination and finishing second with Lets Drink On It in the 2014 Little Brown Jug. “He and Sectionline Bigry are the two best horses I’ve ever sat behind. I sure hope there is more like them in the future!”
