Bounty On IMCA Stocker Snellenberger at Eagle River Speedway on August 5

By Joe Verdegan

EAGLE RIVER, Wis. (Aug. 2, 2025) — Eagle River Speedway has placed a bounty on Wisconsin’s winningest Sunoco IMCA Stock Car driver – Pulaski’s “Hot Rod” Snellenberger – for the Tuesday, August 5 show at the Northwoods third-mile clay oval.

Snellenberger, a two-time track champion at ERS, is undefeated this season with six feature wins in six appearances. Any IMCA Stock Car driver who can beat him on August 5 will receive a $300 bonus through the bounty. And that amount could increase before race night.

To collect the bounty, Snellenberger must be running competitively and on the lead lap when the checkered flag flies. The track will use IMCA’s weekly point average system, so Snellenberger will likely start deep in the field — along with any out-of-town challengers looking to claim the bonus.

The division’s highest car count this season has been 24. Since beginning his IMCA Stock Car career in 1993, Snellenberger has tallied 235 career feature wins.

Snellenberger Nabs No. 234 at Eagle River

By Joe Verdegan EAGLE RIVER, Wis. (July 22, 2025) — Pulaski’s “Hot Rod” Snellenberger bumped his career Sunoco IMCA stock car feature win total to 234 by picking up that division’s feature win at Eagle River Speedway Tuesday. Wisconsin’s winningest driver in the division started sixth on the grid in the 20 lap contest. Initially, it appeared that front row starter Jonathan Miller had the feature win in the bag. The Eagle River driver sprinted into the lead at the drop of the green of the race. Miller wasted little time building up a decent cushion between himself and the rest of the field. Snellenberger caught up with Miller after six laps and pressured Miller for several circuits before flying past Miller on the high side on lap 12. It was his sixth triumph in the EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region with five coming at Eagle River. Snellenberger kept all challengers at bay and cruised to victory in the caution free event. Miller hung on to claim second place money. Last week’s feature winner Ryan Glembin [Read More]

Snellenberger Snags Eagle River Speedway $1,000 Payday

By Joe Verdegan EAGLE River, Wis. (Jul. 1, 2025) — Rod Snellenberger of Pulaski, the 2008 Sunoco IMCA Stock Car National champion and defending Eagle River Speedway track champion, passed Junior Karcz for the lead on lap eight and held off hometown driver Jason Zdroik to win the $1,000-to-win feature Tuesday during the Mark Zdroik Memorial. The victory marked Snellenberger’s fourth EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region win of 2025, his third at Eagle River this season, and the 232nd of his IMCA Stock Car career. Dave Bouche jumped into the lead from his pole position at the drop of the green of the 20 lap contest. Bouche mixed it up with Karcz in the first few circuits until a caution flew when Wausau’s Mitch Stankowski stalled on the frontstretch. On the restart, Cole Czarneski blasted into the second spot, and a three car dual ensued for the lead between Bouche, Czarneski and Snellenberger. After another yellow, Karcz would regain the top spot with Snellenberger hot on his heels. Snellenberger motored past Karcz on the eighth lap. [Read More]
