The 2026 Teton County Fair in Jackson, Wyoming, came to a close on Sunday evening with the Figure 8 Races. This year’s event saw 36 entrants, all of whom were required to live or work full-time in Teton County, split into six heats. The top three finishers in each heat moved on to future rounds, with winners of the Last Chance Qualifier rounds also advancing.
Final Race
The final race included six drivers who had won previous races: Tim Hoff, defending champion Jorge Meneses, Wesley Hiltbrunner, Pat Cunningham, Joel Tate, and Jacob Bentlage. According to Teton County, Cunningham placed third, Hoff took second, and Hiltbrunner won the race.
The event was marked by friendly wagering in the stands and a dramatic moment when one car rolled over fully onto its roof, landed back on its wheels, and continued driving. Emcee Jeff Moran noted that he had never seen such an incident before.
