Jadan Bowling Captures Victory in the Proctor Family Memorial at Carolina Speedway

By Evan McCrory GASTONIA, S.C. (Sept. 6, 2025) — The Carolina Sprint Tour presented by GSR Chassis honored the lives of Theresa and Raymond Jr. with the Proctor Family Memorial at Carolina Speedway on Saturday night. 22 RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Cars filled the pit area on a warm late-summer evening, setting the stage for one of the most memorable events in tour history. When the green flag waved on the 25-lap feature, Nick Tucker led the field to the start, but an early caution for Biscuit Williams slowed the action. On the second attempt, Jake McLain surged to the front before surrendering the lead to Jadan Bowling on lap six. Moments later, McLain spun, bringing out another yellow. From there, the Holden Beach, North Carolina, pilot never looked back. Despite two red flags—one for Andy Stegall’s frontstretch flip on lap 14 and another for Josh Shantz’s crash in turn three—Bowling controlled the rest of the race and powered to his sixth career Carolina Sprint Tour victory. Tucker and George Loux completed the podium in second and [Read More]

Teenager Baldwin Wins Kevin Huntley Memorial in Thriller at Bloomington

By Pat Sullivan BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (Sept. 5, 2025) — With a top prize of $10,000 up for grabs, the Kevin Huntley Memorial at Indiana’s Bloomington Speedway is, by definition, one of the most prestigious races on the RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car calendar. Yet, the significance of the event goes well beyond the hefty purse. Huntley, known in the racing world as “The Pup,” cut his teeth at Bloomington Speedway, where he was the track champion in 1986. The 4th annual Kevin Huntley Memorial was the most highly anticipated edition of the annual race to date. With Mother Nature interceding in July, the tilt was pushed back to Sept. 5, when 37 cars signed in, representing eight different states and the United Kingdom. Rod Henning and Whit Gastineau occupied the front row of the 30-lap feature, with Dillan Baldwin and Ashton Thompson next in line. Henning got the jump when the green flag fell and built a comfortable margin in the opening stages of the race, with Gastineau in hot pursuit. Henning later headed to the work [Read More]

Dodson Reigns at Path Valley

By Frank Buhrman SPRING RUN, Pa. (Sept. 7, 2025) — Doug Doug Dodson’s record shows he can win on any sized track, but small has been beautiful this year for the Middletown veteran, who scored his second straight River Valley Builders PASS feature at the Path Valley Speedway bullring Saturday night. Scheduled to start fourth, Dodson moved up to the front row after initial occupants Timmy Bittner and Kruz Kepner tangled on the first attempted start. He then out-dragged PASS newcomer Rick Lafferty for the lead on the restart and never gave it up, despite repeated challenges from Lafferty. Lafferty came closest near the 20-lap mark of the 25-lap contest, but a caution for a spinning Tyler Schell removed traffic from the equation, and Dodson drove away to win by 1.854 seconds at the checkered flag. Mike Koehler, wheeling Jesse Storm’s no. 97S entry, advanced from eighth to third and earned hard charger honors. Jarrett Cavalet, who battled Koehler much of the way, settled for fourth. The victory made Dodson and the George Stevens-owned no. 20 the [Read More]
