First-time Hancock County competitor takes Night of 1,000 Stars IMCA Modified win

BRITT, Iowa (Aug. 6) – Tripp Gaylord’s latest first-time track visit led him to victory lane at Hancock County Speedway.  Gaylord raced from 10th starting to win Friday’s IMCA Modified Night of 1,000 Stars main event, and $3,000, at Hancock County Speedway.  “This was our first time at Britt. Every IMCA Speedweek track is new to us,” the Colorado driver said. “It’s always nice to win the first time you race somewhere. We know that whenever we travel out of town we have to be at the top of our game.”  Jeremy Mills led early in the 50-lapper before Kollin Hibdon ran him down. That pair battled for the lead before the charging Gaylord entered the fray. They ran three-wide for the lead for several laps with Gaylord in charge at the midway break. Lapped traffic became a factor in the second half of the contest. Gaylord ran in heavy traffic the last five laps, beating Hibdon to the checkers by a couple car lengths. Lucas Lamberies, Austin Wolf and Garett Wilson completed the top five.  [Read More]
