TIPTON, Iowa (Apr. 12, 2025) — Drew Janssen added another major win to his résumé by capturing the $1,500 to win Friesen Performance IMCA Modified feature during the “Spring Fling” at Cedar County Raceway. The 25-lapper featured a stacked field of Speedway Motors IMCA Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s, National, and multi-time track champions.
Austin Stamm, aboard the Timmy and Marsha Current provided No. 12T, and Dylan Thornton led early until Janssen, driving the Danny Meier and Trent Guest-owned No. 127, took over on lap 5. The Pella pilot controlled the pace from there, only briefly threatened following a late-race caution. On the restart, local standout Ben Chapman charged low and crossed the line in second, while 10th-starting Jeff Larson guided the P.J. Kostenbader-fielded No. B1 to a third-place finish. The win marked Janssen’s second of the season in the Razor Chassis North Central Region.
Tyler Wilson made a long haul from Little Suamico, Wis., to tackle the competitive Sunoco IMCA Stock Car field—and the trip paid off. Wilson came out on top of the 20-lap main event, his first this year in the EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region, besting fellow Wisconsin competitor Kenny Richards, with Gage Neal rounding out the top three.
“Speedy Bray” Brayton Carter continued his Cedar County success in the Karl Chevrolet IMCA Northern SportMods. Carter, who started eighth, made his way to the front and led Dylan VanWyk—also of Oskaloosa—to the checkers to earn his third win of the campaign in the division. Jarett Franzen completed the top three.
Dan Mohr, a past winner at Tipton, impressed again by dominating the Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stock feature. Piloting the Double Cheeseburger Motorsports entry, Mohr topped the 23-car field for his first triumph in the B&B Racing Chassis Northern Region in 2025, with Brayden Fahrni second and Kyler Hefty third.
