Abelson answers challenge with IMCA Speedweek victory at BVR

ALTA, Iowa (Aug. 4) – Round three took IMCA Speedweek to Buena Vista Raceway, where Chris Abelson, Devin Smith, Brandon Nielsen and Rusty Montagne all raced to $1,000 Lynn DeWall Memorial feature wins.  While Abelson was scored first every time around the track in Wednesday’s IMCA Modified main event, upstart Kollin Hibdon nearly stole the lead away with a late slide job.  Despite fuel pressure issues, Abelson answered that challenge and pulled back ahead, then eased away from his young challenger.  Hibdon had made his way from eighth starting to second just seven circuits into the 20-lapper. Abelson, already eligible to qualify for the upcoming Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational was running with the back of the field when the only caution of the race came out on lap 12. Tripp Gaylord, Lucas Lamberies and Jesse Rogotztke were next across the stripe.  Smith chased and finally caught brother and race-long leader David on the 17th of 20 IMCA Sunoco Stock Car laps. Devin Smith is already B & B Chassis All-Star qualifying eligible. David Smith ended in [Read More]

IMCA Modifieds, Karl Kustoms Northern SportMods and IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stocks all race for $1,000 to win Aug. 2 at Spencer.

Abelson is successful in home track defense as Midwest Madness Tour visits Buena Vista

ALTA, Iowa (June 30) – A track that’s been very good to Chris Abelson in the past was good to the Sioux City speedster Wednesday night. Abelson got the best of Anthony Roth for the lead early into the IMCA Modified main event, then led to the finish of the 30-lap Karl Kustoms Northern SportMod Midwest Madness Tour/Kyle Suter Memorial show at Buena Vista Raceway.  “I’ve raced at Alta a long time. I did have a home track advantage and that goes a long ways,” said Abelson, a seven-time Modified track champion at BVR. “It’s always good to win here – You never want somebody to come beat you at your home track.” That “somebody” Wednesday night was Californian Cody Laney, who worked his way up from ninth starting to second. A caution with eight laps left bunched the field back up by Abelson was able to stay in front to the checkers. Roth, Tuesday winner Kyle Brown and Dakota Sproul completed the top five.  One thousand dollars richer, Abelson was already a Fast Shafts [Read More]

It feels good to know I’m able to race with those guys.” The defending race winner took the initial green from third; the only caution of the race came out just before halfway in the 20-lapper. The Jimmy Squib Memorial feature had been postponed a week and became Smith’s third straight at Alta.  Tenth starting Craig Brotherton, James Johnson, Drew Barglof and Dillon Magnussen rounded out the top five.  Dylan Fitzpatrick won the evening’s scheduled feature with Smith racing from 12th starting to finish a close second.
