BRITT, Iowa (June 12, 2026) — Cam Reimers realized a longtime goal Friday night, dominating the annual Gold-Eagle Cooperative SportMod Nationals at Hancock County Speedway to earn one of the biggest victories of his season.

The Kelley driver controlled the Karl Kustoms IMCA Northern SportMod feature despite several cautions, including a late restart that brought the field to his rear bumper for a final sprint to the checkered flag. Reimers quickly pulled away once the race resumed and secured his seventh victory of the season, earned at five different tracks.

Keegan Nordquist finished second, followed by Ben Reierson, Alec Fett and Josh Appel.

Flippo Holds Off Fett in Modified Feature

Jerry Flippo of Rockford, by way of Bakersfield, California, scored his second Razor Chassis North Central Region victory of the season in the Karl Kustoms IMCA Modified main event.

Flippo led throughout but faced intense pressure from Colby Fett during the second half of the race. Fett charged from seventh starting position and repeatedly challenged for the lead but could not find a way around the leader in the closing laps.

Matt Looft finished third, while Nick Meyer advanced from 10th to fourth. Clint Hatlestad completed the top five.

Shryock Scores First Stock Car Victory of 2026

One day before celebrating his 61st birthday, Kelly Shryock of Fertile collected his first EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region victory of the season in the Sunoco IMCA Stock Car feature.

Shryock crossed the finish line ahead of Colby Fett, while Dan Mackenthun raced from eighth to third. Kevin Opheim was fourth and Braden Richards charged from 10th to fifth.

Flippo dominates at Britt, Smith gets 99th win

By Chad Meyer BRITT, Iowa (Aug. 2, 2024) – Three different drivers were in the second position at different times of Friday’s Friesen Performance IMCA Modified feature at Hancock County Speedway.

Knecht charged from sixth to finish ahead of Clint Hatlestad and Jeremy Mills.  In the IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars, Troy Swearingen made the last lap count as he made a huge move to the bottom of turns one and two to sweep up in front of long-time leader Parker Slagle. It was Swearingen’s second win at the Britt track.
