By Bob Coney JEFFERSON, S.D. (June 5) – A strong wind blew into Raceway Park on Sunday night as five racing divisions provided a fast night of IMCA racing action.

Henderson wins at North Platte in borrowed car

By Kelly Ninas NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (June 4) – Saying that the racing was action packed would be an understate­ment when describing the Saturday Night Thunder created by the competitors at Lin­coln County Raceway. Standing in the winner’s circle at the end of the evening were Colton Os­born, Henry Henderson, Jeff Whiting, Zach Olmstead and Andrew Baumgardner. One week late it seemed, but it was better later than never for Henderson in winning the Karl Chevro­let Northern SportMod feature. It seemed that one week ago Henderson was cruising to the win only to get caught in a lapped traffic accident. Fast forward to this week and Henderson was up to the task in a car borrowed from Brandon Clough as he grabbed the lead on the third lap and never looked back to win from his third row starting position. Gary Long was second and Bryan Herrick third. It took five laps for Osborn of Cozad to work through the traffic from his fourth row starting posi­tion to grab the lead, as he held that [Read More]

Droste nips Goedert for win at Dubuque

By Jerry Mackey DUBUQUE, Iowa (June 5) – The Out Pace Racing Products IMCA Late Model feature thrilled the fans with plenty of exciting wheel to wheel action Sunday at Dubuque Speedway. Luke Goedert took the lead from early race leader Jerry King and appeared to be on his way to his first local win of 2016 but Tyler Droste had other ideas. Droste took the green in the 10th posi­tion and steadily worked his way to the front in the 25-lap feature that ran caution-free. Droste used both the high line and the extreme low side on his way to the front. Droste led the field under the white flag and then lapped traffic was a factor on the last circuit. Goedert ran the high line in turn four and Droste dove low and was able to get to the checkers taking the win by a mere couple of feet. Luke Merfeld came from the fifth row to take third ahead of Dan Shelliam. Ryan DeShaw scored his first feature win of the season [Read More]

Mullen captures Red Race at 141 Speedway

By Greg Aregoni FRANCIS CREEK, Wis. (June 3) – Brian Mullen had to wait seven days to pick up his first feature win of the season at 141 Speedway in the Xtreme Motor Sports IMCA Modifieds. It was well worth the wait as he took home the top prize of $1,000 for the Red race win. Jay Matthias rocketed from his front row starting spot and looked early to be the man to beat until he caught lapped traffic. Matthias had to slow, which allowed Mullen to play catch up.  Mullen reeled in Mathias and used a power move down low to grab the lead for good off turn four. Mullen held off a late charge from Matthias to take home the win. Benji LaCrosse moved to third late over Tyler Wilson. Russ Reinwald finished fifth.  Mullen’s win earned him a spot on the ballot for the Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational.
