Meirhofer Masters MODtana Madness in $5,000 Modified Thriller at Gallatin

By Ben Deatherage BELGRADE, Mont. (Jun. 28, 2025) — Jeremy Meirhofer came out on top of a wild 55-lap Friesen Performance IMCA Modified feature to win the 2025 edition of MODtana Madness at Gallatin Speedway and earn the $5,000 payday. Two-time Montana State champion Cory Craver paced the field early, grabbing the lead on lap one and holding firm through several interruptions. Craver navigated lapped traffic by lap eight and held back a strong charge from two-time and reigning track champion Jordan Tocci following a caution on lap 14. A scheduled fuel stop at lap 23 briefly reset the field. On the restart, Craver kept Tocci behind him again before another pair of cautions on laps 28 and 34 bunched up the pack. Craver took advantage of the battle between Tocci and four-time Montana State champion and five-time Gallatin Speedway titlist Jeremy Meirhofer to extend his lead. Tocci eventually cleared Meirhofer and caught Craver, making a pass for the lead on lap 46. Craver immediately countered with a crossover in turns three and four, but a [Read More]

Sweigart Breaks Record with Third KRC Win At Port Royal

By Frank Buhrman PORT ROYAL, Pa. (Jun. 28, 2025) — “Nitro” Nick Sweigart has made no secret of his 2025 goals revolving around Port Royal Speedway, and he checked a big one off his list Saturday in the River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series Keystone RaceSaver Challenge, becoming the first driver to win the Port Royal Speedway classic three times. Sweigart, from Myerstown, led the 14th annual KRC feature nearly all the way, but a furious challenge from runner-up Christian Rumsey of New York turned the last four laps into a lead-swapping race for the ages. When the top two encountered slower traffic on lap 17, it looked like Sweigart’s lead was far too great for that factor to make any difference, but Rumsey found something that helped him slice off large chunks of the margin in the third and fourth turns, and with four to go he slipped underneath Sweigart and into the lead. Undaunted, Sweigart came back exiting turn four, and for the next two laps the lead switched hands a couple more times before [Read More]

Andersen Slices Through the Field for Modified Glory at Eagle

By Greg Soukup EAGLE, Neb. (Jun. 28, 2025) — Chad Andersen was on a mission in the Friesen Performance IMCA Modified feature at Eagle Raceway. Cameron Thompson led the opening circuits with Tyler Harr close behind, but all eyes were on Andersen, who steadily picked off cars one by one. He cracked the top three by lap five and slipped into second a few laps later. By lap 12, he powered around Thompson for the lead and immediately began to stretch it out. From there, Andersen hit his marks and left the rest of the field to battle behind him. Harr gave chase but never closed the gap as the laps clicked off. Thompson stayed solid in third to round out the podium. The win marked Andersen’s second of the season at Eagle and in the Jet Racing Central Region column. Richards Rallies Late for Fourth Stock Car Win The Sunoco IMCA Stock Car feature turned into a mid-race slugfest, and Mason Richards was up for the challenge. He worked his way forward after early leader [Read More]
