Dinsmore returns to victory lane at I-37

By J.M. Hallas PLEASANTON, Texas (Aug. 23, 2025) — The South Texas IMCA Modified Series rolled into I-37 Speedway for a 20-lap Friesen Performance IMCA Modified main event that featured a family storyline right from the start. After the redraw, the Dinsmore brothers — Logan, a series championship contender, and Cameron, a rookie in just his first half season of IMCA Modified racing — lined up side-by-side on the front row. At the drop of the green, Logan Dinsmore jumped out front with Jared Maupin in close pursuit, followed by Colin Carroll, Cameron Dinsmore, and Johnny Torres. Maupin quickly turned up the pressure, showing the nose low in turn one on lap two and getting alongside the leader the next time around. Logan fought back in turns three and four to hang onto the point, and the duel raged for several more laps before Maupin finally completed the pass in turns three and four on lap eight. From there, Maupin stretched his advantage while the battle behind him shuffled, with Torres moving up to fourth past [Read More]

By J.M. Hallas PLEASANTON, Texas (Aug. 10) – Rick Green picked another IMCA Modified win, coming from eighth starting Saturday at I-37 Speedway. After a couple rocky tries at starts, Green powered his way to the front on lap three, held off Dillon Tindall through the early stages and then pulled away the final half to secure the victory. “It’s a long way when you have to start back in the fourth row,” said Green. “It worked out pretty good. Once Dillon showed me the line the second time, I knew there must be something up there. That’s when I went up to the high side and the car was excellent.” “I was kind of a sitting duck running out front. Once someone shows you the nose you think if you should be there, too,” he added. “I was still beating him on the bottom but once I moved up top the car was so much faster. That’s when I was able to get away from him.” Tindall ended in second and Anthony Gordon was [Read More]

By JM Hallas PLEASANTON, Texas (Sept. 14, 2024) – It was another “hot” night of racing at I-37 Speedway after a week off. The action was as hot as the temperatures on the quarter-mile mile, semi-banked, dirt, oval just outside Pleasanton. It’s still a tight battle in the South Texas Friesen Performance IMCA Modified Series by Hortch Speed Shop with Chris Morris now on top by 10 over Ryan Doyon and 11 over Rick Green. Jacob Hortch led the STIMS field into turn one at the start of the 20-lap feature, but it was Green getting inside to lead lap one. Hortch, Morris, Jared Maupin and Logan Dinsmore followed in the top five. Morris got by Hortch for second with Maupin following to third. Dinsmore was next to pick up a spot from Hortch before Maupin spun and collected Hortch, ending both their nights. On the restart, Green had Morris looking high while Dinsmore looked low. Green and Morris then went side-by-side with Morris getting the nose ahead briefly. Dinsmore got by low for second, [Read More]
