Durbin Dominates Modifieds at Davenport
By Mike McGuire
DAVENPORT, Iowa (May 9, 2025) — Davenport Speedway played host to a thrilling Friesen Performance IMCA Modified showdown Friday night, as drivers battled for a nice $1000 to win payday and courtesy of Midwest Recyclers. With extra cash and Fast Shafts All-Star Modified Invitational eligibility on the line, every lap was fiercely contested — and Brandon Durbin of Colona, Illinois, made the most of it.
Durbin dominated his heat race to earn the pole for the 20-lap main event. Once the green flag dropped, he set a blistering pace and led every circuit to score his first Razor Chassis North Central Region win of 2025. With the win he is now eligible to qualify for the Modified Invitational to be run at the Speedway Motors IMCA Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s later this summer.
Second would go to Logan Veloz. Veloz started sixth and slowly moved forward during the second half of the race. Kyle Montgomery ran second early in the race, faded back, and then surged late to take third.
Tony Olson captured the win in the Karl Chevrolet IMCA Northern SportMod class. Olson started twelfth and would not see the lead until lap 11. Once in front, Tony started to pull away from the field. He finished with a two second gap on second place Ryan Reed. Brad Salisberry was third. The victory was Olson’s third of the season at Davenport
Daniel Wauters made it back-to-back wins in the Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stock class. Wauters started fifth and took the lead on lap 2 for his second victory in the B&B Racing Chassis Northern Region. Dan Mohr took second followed by Randy LaMar.
With curfew fast approaching, Stealth Racing IMCA STARS Mod Lite feature was shortened. With twelve of the fifteen laps complete, Jon Padilla picked up his second win of the year at Davenport. Mike Morrow finished second, followed by Austin Gray.
The event was broadcast live on IMCA TV affiliate Done Right TV. Catch every lap again with the IMCA TV Replay Subscription, available for just $24.99/month. And don’t miss Season 2 of the Boone Docuseries, now streaming exclusively on IMCA TV.
