Hoffman hoists Park Jefferson hardware

JEFFERSON, S.D. – Forecasts for low temperatures and concerns about the potential for frozen pipes have forced Park Jefferson Speedway track officials to cancel both nights of this weekend’s scheduled IMCA Defroster special. Next up on the Park Jefferson schedule is the South Dakota Sprint Car Nationals, with IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Cars on April 26 and April 27 cards. IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stocks and Karl Kustoms Northern SportMods also race on opening night, IMCA Modifieds and IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars on night two.

JEFFERSON, S.D. (June 1) – A former track champion in the Stock Car division was the Art­works Graphics IMCA Modifieds feature winner Saturday at Park Jefferson Speedway.  Chris Mills was able to benefit from a front row starting spot and jump to an early lead, ultimately winning by a margin of four seconds. Mills was chased by R.J. Merchant, who has found a lot of speed over the past few weeks, while Jay Noteboom was third. In the Stevenson Hardware IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Cars, Dusty Ballenger came flying from eighth with point leader Brant O’Banion in tow as the drivers from the fourth row were able to slide around the smooth racing surface to race into the lead. Ballenger has shown an affinity for the Park surface since the Sprint Cars became weekly and picked up his second win of the year.  The J&J Fitting IMCA Stock Cars saw Greg Taylor hold off Elijah Zevenbergen by just one tenth of a second to pick up his second feature win of the year.

By Chance Riley JEFFERSON, S.D. (Apr. 24, 2026) — Friday night racing at Park Jefferson Speedway saw the Sunoco IMCA Stock Cars steal the show for the third straight week, and this time it was Sioux City, Iowa’s Greg Peck who made the winning move when it mattered most. Mike Vondrak paced much of the 18-lap main event, just as he had the week before, but was under constant pressure from a pack of drivers racing two- and three-wide behind him. Peck, who started sixth, methodically worked his way forward before making a late-race pass to score his first win of 2026 in the EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region. Vondrak settled for second, followed by Lowell Roeber in third. Travis Baker finished fourth, and Todd Gereau rounded out the top five. In the Karl Kustoms IMCA Modifieds, Sioux City’s Greg Taylor completed a clean sweep on the night, picking up his first win of the season in the Razor Chassis North Central Region. Jimmy Cole ran second, followed by R.J. Merchant, Shane DeMey, and Ricky Stephan. [Read More]
