BOONE, Iowa – A mulligan draw sponsored by IMCA.TV will add pre-race excitement and money to purses paid for Modifieds, Stock Cars, Northern SportMods, Hobby Stocks and Sport Compacts at the Sept. 4 and 5 Prelude at Boone Speedway.  There is no entry fee for those divisions. If they wish, drivers can pay $20 before drawing their first pill; if they’re not happy with that number they can draw a second time and must keep that pill. All of the money generated by the Mulligan pill draw will be added to that division’s purse for the night. IMCA.TV then matches the proceeds generated in each division.  Complete shows for Modifieds and Stock Cars are on Saturday, complete shows for SportMods, Hobbies and Sport Compacts on Sunday.  The mulligan draw option won’t be available to STARS Mod Lite drivers, who run a two-day Super Nationals qualifying format during the Prelude.

The IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars rolled out for their 20-lap feature and polesitter Mike House was the early race leader, holding on until halfway when the 14th starting Smith took over. A couple of late race cautions were no bother to Smith as he kept his lead to the checkers and sealed the win. Brother Donavon Smith started 10th and took second and Mathew West was third. Bryan Zehm led all 15 laps of the IMCA STARS Mod Lite race. It was an epic battle behind him however, as Josh May, Randy Bryan, and Mike Kennedy duked it out. Following the leader across the line at the checkers, it was May in the runner-up spot and Kennedy took third. Tom Lathrop grabbed the lead for the start of the 18-lap Karl Kustoms Northern SportMod feature and was looking strong, still leading at lap 13. However, by that time Johnathon Logue had moved through the pack [Read More]
