Third was Kyle Brown with Shane DeVolder fourth and David Brown fifth. Dallon and Damon Murty led the IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars to the green flag with Dallon taking the lead on lap one.

New promotional team sets the bar high at Southern Oregon

WHITE CITY, Ore. – The bar will be set high at Southern Oregon Speedway. Idle for all of 2020, the 3/8-mile dirt oval at White City re-opens with a new promotional team in place and both IMCA Modifieds and Karl Kustoms Northern SportMods on race night programs. Just seven weeks will separate Travis Hoppes and the Southern Oregon Motorsports team from being having been selected to operate the track to opening night on May 29. IMCA Modifieds and Karl Kustoms Northern SportMods will run on select Friday and regular Saturday race programs through Sept. 18. “We want this to be the number one facility on the West Coast,” Hoppes said, in the midst of extensive facility-wide improvements. “We want to make everything here look good and we want to show our drivers and fans that we care.” Built as a 3/8-mile oval, the track has been extended and reshaped to its original configuration. Renovations, largely focused on safety, include additional lighting, replacement of concrete walls and upgrading of catch fences. Pitside grandstands have been moved [Read More]

Richards quick to find 2021 IMCA Stock Car success

By Greg Soukup LINCOLN, Neb. – Cade Richards, the 2019 IMCA national Karl Kustoms Northern SportMod rookie of the year, spent most of 2020 competing in his SportMod and IMCA Sunoco Stock Car. To say that he’s starting off the 2021 season well in the Stock Car would be an understatement. He kicked off the year with a pair of third-place finishes, then brought it home in the top spot twice. On Friday, April 23 Richards made the trip to Salina Speedway. Starting his heat from the inside of the third row, he took the checkers. Then, in the main event he started fourth row inside and in a few laps got the lead and checked out for the clean sweep. “At first I was just trying to move up in there. I think it was lap six when I got up to fourth,” he said. “Eventually I got up to second and I and the leader had a real battle going on. I finally got around him and just took off from there for [Read More]

Brody Center had the initial jump in the 20-lap IMCA Sunoco Stock Car main event but before the completion of the first lap he would be overtaken by Madrid.

Larry Brigner recovered from an early flat to end the night in second. Brody Center was third while Dennis Losing posted a fourth-place result. The top five was completed by Raymond Doyle. In Karl Kustoms IMCA Northern SportMod action, the 20-lap main event began with Robert Holmes setting the tone early. Holmes lost the coveted top place position on the second circuit to Clower.

Ferrando does it again at Grays Harbor

By Stephanie Deatherage ELMA, Wash. (May 1) – Grey Ferrando collected his second feature win in as many 2021 starts at Grays Harbor Raceway, topping the 24-car field of IMCA Modifieds Saturday night. Tom Sweatman was the first car to lead the field at the start-finish line. Sweatman held onto the position until lap five when Brenton Schnitzer made the pass. Schnitzer set a rapid pace but had an unfortunate stroke of bad luck when he had a flat left front tire and came to a halt on lap nine. This gave the first place position back to Sweatman. Sweatman was challenged by Ferrando and Blair Shoemaker before slowing and then coming to a halt on lap 12. New leader Ferrando was not out of the woods yet as he had to deal with several restarts and cautions. With all the stop-and-go action, Shoemaker tried to challenge Grey but was unable to overtake him. Ferrando, who started in twelfth, held on to win his second straight main event at GHR and in KMJ Performance Washington State competition. Shoemaker was [Read More]

Crigler topped Saturday’s 40-lap Show-Me Showdown at Legit Speedway Park, earning $2,000 along with a spot on the Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational ballot. “There’s a lot of history at this place,” said Crigler, owner of a paving business and already a two-time winner this season on the dirt at West Plains. “I know there were a lot of good cars here and it feels good to have been able to win this race.” Crigler had started fourth and passed Matt Barry for the lead on the seventh circuit. A handful of cautions kept lapped traffic to a minimum before the last 10 laps ran green. The Alton driver built up a straightaway advantage over second running Powers on his way to taking the checkers. “The track was slick and smooth,” he said. “I like to drive the car straight and that’s the way you’ve got to do it there.” Tony Anglin, Drake Findley and Roger [Read More]

Thompson tops Springfield IMCA Modified main

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – James Thompson came out of a three-wide pack on lap eight and held on to record his second win out of four IMCA Modified features Saturday ight at The Quick Quarter of the Springfield Raceway. Thompson, the track champion, came from the eighth starting spot and made the smooth move on leader Jimmy Greenway and second place runner Bobby Pearish, then held back a late surge from Greenway. Action for the Bad Boy Mower IMCA Modifieds was very intense as Greenway was rolling strong on the top side while Pearish was looking for a chance to get around Greenway. Greenway, who has been away from circle track racing for several seasons, has been fighting the new car blues and was rolling strong in his Ballie Diesel Automotive number 28. So far this season it has been Thompson in his Hayden Machinery 11T and two-time winner Steven Bowers Jr. with two wins at Springfield. IMCA Modified action continues Saturday, May 8 with racing to start at 6:30 p.m.

Grube prevails in PASS headliner at Port Royal

By Frank Buhrman PORT ROYAL, Pa. (May 1) – After an incredible three-car, 12-lap battle, Dave Grube II held on for the win Saturday night at Port Royal Speedway, taking the Pennsylvania Sprint Series 20-lap feature by a shade less than a second over Ken Duke Jr., with Kenny Heffner a career-best third and less than two tenth’s of a second behind Duke. Grube started on the pole and led the entire 20 laps, but never shed its multiple-IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car competition, which also included Kassidy Kreitz and Justin Mills early in the race. It was when Kreitz suddenly slowed and dropped out on lap eight that the stage was set for the lengthy final fight. On that restart, Heffner grabbed second from Duke, but six laps later the former national and PASS champion retook the spot. Two laps later Heffner was back in second and on the next lap he went for the lead, with making contact with Grube on the backstretch. That allowed Duke back into second, but even with lapped traffic [Read More]
