By Joyce Eisele BOONE, Iowa (July 20, 2024) – Fans were treated to some great racing at Iowa’s Action Track on Saturday night, which at times provided three and four wide racing. The main attraction of the night at Boone Speedway was the IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars with the running of the $5,000 to win King of the Katwalks and the “Game Changer,” Dallon Murty walked away with that crown. Fifty-one Stock Cars checked in for the night to try their hand at winning the $5,000. The King of the Katwalks was presented by Van Eaton Pork & Fox Welding/Vermeer. The 28-car starting field for the 40-lap feature was determined by heat winners and passing points through the heats, plus four provisionals were added on to the back of the starting grid. The top 12 starters were brought to the frontstretch for a draw for their starting spots. Tommy Fain, Abilene, Texas, was the lucky recipient of the pole starting position, with Murty starting in position two. Murty immediately took advantage of that starting spot, took to the topside of [Read More]
