Smith stars twice in Sunday Lone Star Tour show at Devil’s Bowl

MESQUITE, Texas (March 5, 2023) – Cody Smith made two trips to victory lane, on night two of the Sunoco Race Fuels Lone Star Tour presented by Sniper Speed. The Kaufman clipper dominated in winning the headline IMCA Sunoco Stock Car main event Sunday at Devil’s Bowl Speedway, then ended the show with a late drive to the front of the Smiley’s Racing Products IMCA Southern SportMod feature field. Smith caught Jesse Sobbing for the lead three laps into the Stock Car feature and put some distance on the pack before the only caution of the contest flew after midway. Jeffrey Abbey snuck into second following the restart but couldn’t close the gap over the final 10 times around the oval. Smith took the $1,000 win and B & B Racing Chassis All-Star Invitational qualifying eligibility ahead of Abbey and Saturday tour winner Paul White. Also a Saturday winner at Kennedale, Smith motored to his second Southern SportMod checkers in as many nights by making the top side of the track work and passing Dean [Read More]

Stephen Stiteler: From Rodeo Roads to His Rise in the Sport Compacts

By Ben Deatherage ALVORD, Texas (Apr. 29, 2026) — In a small North Texas town where the highway hum never really fades and cattle trailers roll past more often than commuter traffic, Stephen Stiteler has built a life defined by movement. Alvord, Texas, sits just north of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex—a quiet place with deep agricultural roots, where a park, a bank, and a handful of local businesses make up the heart of town. But just down the road lies something much bigger: the Fort Worth Stockyards, rodeo arenas, and a culture built around livestock and long days on the road. For Stiteler, it was the perfect fit. Because long before racing entered the picture, the road already had. A Life Before Racing Stiteler didn’t grow up chasing dirt track wins. “I raced go-karts when I was about 12 or 13, but only for a year,” he said. “I had three siblings and we were always busy with sports, so racing kind of went away.” Instead, his path took a different direction—one that kept him just [Read More]

By Rowdy Briggs CASA GRANDE, Ariz. (Apr. 25, 2026) — Ty Warner drew the pole for the Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stock feature and made the most of it in an 18-lap thriller. Warner had Joe Peterson, Steve Bitting Jr., Anthony Madrid, Joel Magee, and Charles McDaniel III all breathing down his neck.

Warner held off Bitting on the late restart to score his first win of the year in the B&B Racing Chassis Southern Region for the Phoenix driver.
