Clem Charges to Cliff Chambers Memorial Mod Lite Victory at Marshalltown

By Kaden Krebs MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa (May 1, 2026) — The IMCA Mod Lites kicked off the night at the Cliff Chambers Memorial at Marshalltown Speedway with an impressive drive from Riley Clem. The Bakersfield, California driver started mid-pack and methodically worked his way to the front to earn his fifth win of the year at four different tracks in three different states—and his first victory of the season at Marshalltown. Dillon Raffurty advanced from ninth to finish second, while Austin Gray completed the podium. Bryan Zehm was fourth, followed by Josh May. One of the biggest moments of the night belonged to Kael Koch, who captured his first MoTown victory in the Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stocks. The Marshalltown driver, who started third, stayed poised under pressure and drove a smooth race to score his first win of the season in the B&B Racing Chassis Northern Region. Corey VanDerwilt finished second, while Eric Knutson charged from 10th to third. Tom Killen Jr. was fourth and Eric Stanton completed the top five.

Henry Comes Out on Top in Hard-Fought Cottage Grove SportMod Feature

By Ben Deatherage COTTAGE GROVE, Ore. (May 2, 2026) — Jordan Henry prevailed in a hard-fought 25-lap Karl Kustoms IMCA Northern SportMod feature at Cottage Grove Speedway, earning his first win of the season after a race filled with intense battles and constant position changes. Ricky Ashley, in the T.R. Points Trucking-provided No. 8511, won the race to the line on the opening lap ahead of Justin Morgan and quickly built a sizable advantage. Lapped traffic came into play by lap nine, allowing Morgan to close in while also holding off defending track champion Aaron Bloom. Bloom moved into second on lap 11 and challenged for the lead, but contact between the front runners allowed Morgan to take over the top spot the next time around. Shortly after, 2023 track champion Henry found a way through and took command on lap 14. Morgan fought back to briefly reclaim the lead, and Bloom made a bold move between the two before Henry edged back ahead at the line. A lap 20 caution reset the field, but Henry, [Read More]

Debenedetti Navigates Traffic for SportMod Season-Opening Win at Southern Oregon

By Jason Allen WHITE CITY, Ore. (May 2, 2026) — Fresh off a heat race victory earlier in the night, Vinny Debenedetti led the Karl Kustoms IMCA Northern SportMods to green in the 2026 season-opening main event at Southern Oregon Speedway. The field completed just one lap before trouble erupted on lap two. Logan McKnight and Ryder Boswell tangled on the front stretch while battling for position, collecting Cory Biggs in turn one. McKnight suffered heavy damage, and all three drivers were done for the night. On the restart, more issues followed as John Wilson spun exiting turn two, collecting Blake Peery and Connor Franklin. Peery and Wilson became locked together and had to be separated by the safety crew, ending the night for both. Another caution came on lap six when Lyle Yaeger spun. When racing resumed, Debenedetti took control and began to distance himself during a long green-flag run. Lapped traffic became a factor with 10 laps remaining as Jorddon Braaten closed in. After several laps working the bottom, the 17-year-old from Rogue River [Read More]
