CALHAN, Col. (Jul. 14, 2025) — The 2025 Colorado Alliance Tour is set to wrap up in spectacular fashion with a high-stakes, high-horsepower doubleheader weekend that will crown champions in six fierce Speedway Motors IMCA divisions.

Race fans will be treated to two nights of action-packed dirt track excitement, beginning Friday, July 18th at El Paso County Raceway in Calhan during the El Paso County Fair.  And concluding with the Championship Night on Saturday, July 19th at I-76 Speedway in Fort Morgan.

With tight point battles across the board, every lap will matter as drivers chase glory in the final races of the BST Promotions’ summer-long regional tour.

Point Leaders Heading into the Finale

Troy Seidl holds a strong lead with 235 points in the IMCA Modifieds. The most intense battle may come in the IMCA Stock Cars division where Frank Ogden holds a narrow edge with 236 points. DJ Banks (220) and Layne Bellm (217) are hot on his heels, setting the stage for a showdown in Fort Morgan.  Ryan Moser enters the final weekend with 231 points, but Doug Beaman (187) is still striking distance in the IMCA Northern Sport Mods.  

Brayson Siegle’s consistent performance in the IMCA Hobby Stocks gives him a 212-point total, but Gordon French (198) and Dave Banks (196) are not too far behind.  James Embree leads a tight race with 204 points in the IMCA Sport Compact, just ahead of Melanie Robinson (197) and Ella Allen (195).

Blurton wins first of 2018 with URSS In Colorado 

CALHAN, Colo. (June 23) – Zach Blurton won his first feature of the year with the United Rebel Sprint Series as he bested a 19-car field at El Paso County Raceway. Nick Haygood and Brian Herbert brought the IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car field to the green with Herbert getting the jump on the initial start only to have it negated by a couple cars tangling in turn on. On the ensuing restart, Haygood jumped into the lead and held Herbert at bay for the first three laps before Herbert made his move to take over the number one spot. Herbert’s lead only lasted two laps before Haygood regained the front spot, only to get high a lap later, allowing Herbert back by and falling to sixth. In the meantime, the ninth starting Blurton was moving his way up through the field and was third by lap seven and took over second on lap nine. By lap 11, Blurton made his move to wrestle the lead from Herbert with Williams taking over third from Pearce one lap later. [Read More]
