EAGLE, Neb. (April 22) – Joey Danley made his move to the front late in the contest to win the season-opener for IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Cars Saturday at Eagle Raceway.
Danley slipped into second on the 17th circuit and caught Shayle Bade for the front spot two laps later.
A big crowd filled the stands and 178 teams of racers filled the pits. Twenty heats and five “B” features set the line-ups for the main events.
Clint Homan led from lap 15 to the finish of the Kaplan University IMCA Modified main event.
Fifty-two Hoosier Tire IMCA Northern SportMods were in the pits and Lance Borgman got the best of Josh Pfiefer in a late back-and-forth battle to the checkers. Jeff Ware capped a long run at the front of the Valentino’s IMCA Hobby Stock field with the win.
Dillon Richards was in, out and finally back in the lead for good in the Mountain Dew Kick Start Sport Compact feature.
