The Rio Grande Waste Services Wild West Shootout continued for Tanner Mullens on Wednesday afternoon at Vado Speedway Park (Vado, N.M.) for the third round of the six-race miniseries.

Following a fourth-place showing in his heat race, Mullens charged through the field seven spots in the 30-lap feature to place third. He chased Dereck Ramirez and Tyler Wolff to the checkers.

On Saturday, Tanner raced his way into the main event via a consolation victory after placing fifth in his heat race. Reeling in his fifth consecutive top-10 finish to open the 2023 slate, Mullens marched to a 10th-place outing.

Rolling off on the front row of his heat race on Sunday for the Wild West Shootout finale, Mullens secured his spot into the A-Main with a heat race win. Passing six cars in the 40-lap affair, Tanner posted a third-place finish, which came behind Tyler Wolff and Dan Ebert.
