EAGLE, Neb. (April 28) – Team Gullion had plenty to celebrate Saturday at Eagle Raceway.

Adam Gullion not only won his heat and the IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car eature but his second car, driven by Zach Blurton, won its heat and came in second in the main.

“It was definitely nice. To be able to unload two cars, with two separate driv­ers on the same team and win our heat races then run first and second in the feature is definitely a very big confidence booster and a big positive for the season,” Gullion said. “That’s something that we’re all proud of as a team, and an accomplishment we’ll be talking about for a very long time.”

Jordan Grabouski notched another Runner Freights IMCA Modified victory, after starting way back in 11th.

“The race track was really good tonight, and my car was awesome,” Grabouski said. “ It was a good night, but it’s always a good night when you put it in victory lane without so much as a scratch on the car”.

Shawn Harker led every lap of the Purdue University IMCA Northern SportMod main while Jeff Ware led from the fifth circuit to the finish in the Valentino’s IMCA Hobby Stock feature. Zach Bohlmeyer was promoted to the top spot in the ATV Motorsports IMCA Sport Compact feature.

By Greg Soukup EAGLE, Neb. (Aug. 5, 2023) – The final race of the night proved to be a classic on Rock ‘n Roll Classic Night Saturday at Eagle Raceway. Trevor Grossenbacher raced from 17th to first in scoring his first IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car feature win of the season. Grossenbacher was on a mission as he passed Jake Galusha for second with six laps to go. There were just two laps left when Josh Riggins spun out in turn two, setting up a  battle to the finish between Grossenbacher and Tyler Drueke. Grossenbacher used a huge slider in turns three and four on the restart to grab the lead, then held on for the win with Drueke second and Adam Gullion third. “Everybody was kind of two-wide at the start and I couldn’t get my momentum going. Then we had a yellow and was able to get up top to where I wanted to be. I started moving forward and found the bottom in three and four,” he said. “The yellows kind of fell my way [Read More]

By Greg Soukup            EAGLE, Neb. (Sept. 4, 2022) – Now that was the way to finish the biggest RaceSaver Sprint Car event in the world, as Jake Bubak added two trophies from the 10th annual IMCA RaceSaver Nationals to his hardware collection. Bubak won the Precise Racing Products Race of Champions for the third time on Saturday night, then raced to a second RaceSaver Nationals crown and $3,000 on Sunday at Eagle Raceway.  Also the 2020 champion, Bubak took his final win of the weekend ahead of John Carney II, defending race winner Tyler Drueke and Chase Brewer.  “We really enjoy coming here. It helped that we had a really good car this week. Starting on the front row didn’t hurt any, either, and starting outside was a big advantage,” he said following the 35-lapper. “John (Carney) got a little bit stuck down on the bottom on the start and that allowed us to get away from him and the pack.” “I felt like I was getting through traffic really well,” he continued, [Read More]
