Braaksma Repeats in Rage 40 at Fayette County

By Ben Deatherage WEST UNION, Iowa (Aug. 23, 2025) — Ethan Braaksma of Newton topped the Friesen Performance IMCA Modified Rage 40 at Fayette County Speedway, pocketing $2,000 for his second straight win in the 40-lap special. The defending race winner added to an already impressive season with his 12th victory of 2025, 10 of them in the Razor Chassis North Central Region. Ryan Maitland jumped to the lead at the drop of the green and paced the opening circuits until a lap-seven caution bunched the field. On the restart, Spencer Diercks powered around the high side to take over on lap eight, while Braaksma worked his way into second by lap 12 aboard the Danny Meier and Trent Guest-owned no. 111. By lap 15, Braaksma was reeling in Diercks, and one lap later he used the top groove to take command. Lapped traffic came into play on lap 19, but Braaksma had no trouble slicing through before another yellow slowed the pace. On the restart, the two-time defending Dakota Tour and reigning IMCA TV Winnter [Read More]

BOONE, Iowa (Aug. 29, 2025) – If pre-registration trends are any indication, the 43rd annual Speedway Motors IMCA Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s may be one for the record book. It actually already is. By the time pre-registration closed Thursday night at midnight, an impressive 1,156 drivers from 33 states, Canada and Australia reserved their place to compete on IMCA Racing’s biggest stage at Boone Speedway Aug. 30-Sept. 6. This year’s pre-entry numbers bested last year’s then-record 1,061 early registrations by nearly 100 drivers. Leading registration numbers were the Sunoco IMCA Stock Cars, which established a new pre-entry best 302 drivers for the Class Too Tough To Tame. Other new highs were set in the Karl Chevrolet IMCA Northern SportMods with 203 pre-entries, Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stocks with 185 and Stealth Racing STARS IMCA Mod Lites with 93.

Appelt Outduels Field to Capture Inaugural $4,000-to-Win Bonnie Beeter Memorial at Nodak

By Ben Deatherage MINOT, N.D. (Aug. 24, 2025) — Caden Appelt of Minot pocketed $4,000 in the 40-lap Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stock feature at Nodak Speedway, winning the inaugural Bonnie Beeter Memorial. The victory was his 11th of the season in the B&B Racing Chassis Northern Region, with eight of those coming at the North Dakota State Fairgrounds 3/8-mile oval. Appelt got the jump from his third-place starting position to lead the opening lap, but 2022 Estevan Motor Speedway champion Kaden Tuchscherer quickly applied pressure on the high side. Tuchscherer took the point on lap 12 following several laps of side-by-side battling with Appelt, whose preferred low line eventually gave way. The two checked out from the field and resumed their duel again by lap 22. A lap-23 caution reset the field, and Appelt regained the lead on lap 28 with a slider in turn two. Two-time Nebraska State champion Travis Landauer closed in with a run on the bottom, while 2022 McLean County Speedway champion Trever Haas battled him for second. That fight allowed Appelt [Read More]

Shryock Dominates Stock Cars at Algona; Adds to Big Season Tally

By Greg Grabianowski ALGONA, Iowa (Aug. 21, 2025) — The Sunoco IMCA Stock Car feature at Kossuth County Speedway for the Jade Lange Memorial brought 17 cars to the track, with pole sitter Kelly Shryock showing once again why he’s been the class of the field all year. Shryock jumped out front at the start and controlled the pace until a lap-12 yellow slowed things. After a complete restart, cautions for Mike Albertsen’s spin and a small fire under Colby Fett’s hood briefly delayed the action, but none of it rattled Shryock. He powered away to his eighth victory of the year at Kossuth County Speedway, and his 19th in the EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region for 2025. Kevin Opheim was runner-up, followed by Chad Palmer, Devin Tripp, and Calvin Lange. Tripp picked up the hard charger honors, improving seven positions. Shryock’s season dominance also locked down the track championship with a commanding 62-point margin.

Dedrick took command early in the event as Ethan Krall moved into second. Ben Chapman and Trevor Fitz battled side-by-side for third before Chapman moved into the runner-up spot.

By Candice Martin ANTIOCH, Calif. (Aug. 23, 2025) — Bobby Hogge of Salinas captured the 20-lap Friesen Performance IMCA Modified main event Saturday night at Antioch Speedway during the J.D. Willis Salute. The victory was his third of the season at Antioch and 10th overall in the Shaw Race Cars Western Region this year. Hogge raced into the early lead ahead of point leader Troy Foulger and Tyler Browne. A caution on lap two for Jacob Mallet Jr. in turn four bunched the field, but Hogge again held command through a lap 10 yellow for a backstretch crash involving Cody Burke and Mallet. On the restart, Hogge maintained his edge, while a low pass in turn four on lap 13 moved Andrew Pearce into third. Smooth and steady out front, Hogge never faltered, driving to the checkers ahead of Foulger and Pearce.

Mackenthun Steals Stock Car Victory in Last-Lap Thriller

By Susan Allen ARLINGTON, Minn. (Aug. 23, 2025) — The Sunoco IMCA Stock Car feature at Arlington Raceway produced one of the night’s most dramatic finishes with three different leaders. Chris Neisen paced the field early before A.J. Zimmerman worked underneath him to take command. The pair pulled away from the pack until Matt Speckman charged through the middle of the field, only to fall out with mechanical issues just as he was challenging for the lead. That left Zimmerman to duel with Dan Mackenthun over the final five laps. At the line, Mackenthun edged ahead to take the victory, with Zimmerman second and Josh Larsen third. The triumph was Mackenthun’s eighth win of the season in the EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region, with five of those coming at Arlington. Richards Makes Nebraska Trip Count With Hobby Stock Win National points contender Dillon Richards made the trip north from Nebraska worthwhile in the Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stocks. Multiple cautions early helped him climb through the field, and by lap six he was on the heels of leader [Read More]
