Garnhart Scores First Official 2025 Davenport Win

By Mike McGuire DAVENPORT, Iowa (May 30, 2025) — Redemption was on the line for Bryce Garnhart Friday night at Davenport Speedway. The Lanark, Illinois driver had initially won the opening night feature, only to be disqualified when his car came up light at the scales. This time, there was no question. Garnhart took control early in the Sunoco IMCA Late Model feature, grabbing the lead from his front-row starting spot. Late in the race, Logan Veloz began closing in on the leader, but a caution with two laps to go changed everything. During the yellow, Veloz’s engine began overheating and he was forced to pit. On the restart, Garnhart pulled away unchallenged and captured his first official win of the season at Davenport. Dustin Smith capitalized on the restart to pass Andy Nezworski for second place. Diercks Drives to Third Davenport Modified Win In Friesen Performance IMCA Modified action, Spencer Diercks notched his third win at Davenport this season.

Donnohue Delivers in Traffic for Huset’s Victory

By Inside Line Promotions BRANDON, S.D. (May 25, 2025) — Brady Donnohue made a late-race pass in traffic to win the 20-lap RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car main event at Huset’s Speedway, which showcased four different leaders. Andrew Sullivan led the first two laps with Dylan Waxdahl taking over the top spot on lap three. Lee Goos Jr. used the top groove to move forward, powering into the lead on lap eight. Donnohue advanced into second place and closed on Goos Jr. once he hit traffic near the midpoint of the race. Donnohue pulled even for the lead twice before he completed the winning move on lap 18 en route to winning by 0.609 seconds. Goos Jr. finished second with Sullivan in third.

Paulson Masters ‘The Grove’ for First Win

By Frank Buhrman MECHANICSBURG, Pa. (May 23, 2025) — Jeff Paulson, a regular Mid Atlantic Sprint Series driver, took advantage of Landon Price’s misfortune and scored his first RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car victory in his first time racing at Williams Grove Speedway with the River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series. Paulson made the trek from Honey Brook in Chester County to Mechanicsburg pay off big-time. He finished third in his heat race, then drew the outside front row starting position for the feature, beside Price, who had looked dominating earlier in the program and seemed on his way to a second consecutive win, after taking the checkers at BAPS Motor Speedway the previous Sunday. Price, who had won his heat by nearly seven seconds, jumped out to the early lead and began to distance himself from the field, with Paulson holding on for second. The expected outcome changed dramatically, however, when the leader apparently made contact with one of the tires marking the inside boundary of the track in turn four and lost a wheel [Read More]

Jason Robbins: Machinist Professor by Day, Racer by Night

By Ben Deatherage BENTON, Wis. (May 30, 2025) — The number on the door says 211. But the story behind that number is as layered and handcrafted as the engines Jason Robbins builds in the quiet hours of his life, tucked in the rolling farmland of southwest Wisconsin. It’s a Friday evening in Benton, population hovering just above 1,000, where lead mines once fed the Union’s rifled muskets and now powers the dreams of stock car hopefuls. In a town where the most famous factory is Spooky Pinball — a family-run outfit building arcade marvels and fielding a race team — Jason Robbins lives a dual life. By day, he’s a machining instructor at Southwest Wisconsin Technical College. By night, he’s the wheelman of the no. 211 Sunoco IMCA Stock Car for Spooky Pinball founder Chuck Emery. The story of the number? It was quite the compromise. “Chuck had 11E, and I’ve had 21 in the family forever,” said Robbins. “But the 11E was big for Chuck. His uncle raced that number back in the ’80s [Read More]

By Ben Deatherage VINTON, Iowa (May 28, 2025) — Josh Combs, Dylan Wilson, and Nicholas Johnson each made history with their first career Central California Clash championships in their respective Speedway Motors IMCA divisions, capping a competitive four-race tour across the Golden State. Roseville’s Josh Combs clinched the Friesen Performance IMCA Modified title with a strong and consistent week.

Oliver Returns to Winning at Beckley Motor Speedway

By Evan McCrory MOUNT HOPE, W.Va. (May 24, 2025) — Jeff Oliver from Pendergrass, Georgia, ended a nearly year-long winless streak with a hard-earned victory in Saturday’s Carolina Sprint Tour presented by GSR Chassis main event at Beckley Motor Speedway. The co-sanctioned show with the Ohio Thunder Sprint Car Series brought 19 RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car teams to the West Virginia high banks for a chilly but action-packed night. Oliver, who last visited victory lane in June of 2023, charged to the front after a lap 15 tangle between early front-runners Cale Cozad and Jadan Bowling reshuffled the order. The incident opened the door for Oliver, who grabbed the lead on the ensuing restart and never looked back. Wyatt Justice led early from the pole and looked poised for his first career series win before Oliver made the decisive move. Justice settled for second, fending off a strong late effort from Jeff Weaver, who completed the podium in third. The win was the 20th of Oliver’s Carolina Sprint Tour career.

Rindt Wins SportMod Feature in Front of Hometown Fans at Shawano

By Justin Zirngible SHAWANO, Wis. (May 24, 2025) — Hometown driver Tommy Rindt earned his first win of the season in the Karl Chevrolet IMCA Northern SportMods at Shawano Speedway, thrilling the local crowd with a strong restart and clean drive to the checkers. Outside pole sitter Bryce Clements rocketed to the lead at the drop of the green and looked like the car to beat in the early going. Michael Springborn followed close behind with plenty of company in tow. But Rindt, wheeling his way through the pack, caught fire mid-race and began closing in. As the laps ticked away, Tommy Rindt engaged in a heated battle with the 81 machine of AJ Springborn, the two trading moves in a tight race for the lead. Contact between the pair brought out a caution that reset the field with just a few laps remaining. Rindt took full advantage on the restart and led the rest of the way to score the win. Bryce Clements battled back to finish second, while ninth-starting Dustin Wudstrack navigated through the [Read More]

Hudson Hunts Down Whisler, Claims $2,500 West Coast Clash Finale at GHR

By Shaun Hulburt ELMA, Wash. (May 25, 2025) — Jeffrey Hudson made a late charge pay off in the final night of the 2025 West Coast Clash at Grays Harbor Raceway, collecting a $2,500 victory and his second win of the season in the Shaw Race Cars Western Region. The Oregon native piloted the Don Roemer-owned no. 83R to the front after chasing down early leader Eston Whisler in the 35-lap main event for the Friesen Performance IMCA Modifieds. Whisler set the early pace, leading from the drop of the green until lapped traffic forced him out of the groove on lap 11. That misstep opened the door for Jeffrey Hudson, who had been closing steadily and took over the top spot. Hudson began to pull away before a lap 14 caution erased his advantage and restacked the field. On the restart, Nick Trenchard moved into second with Kevin Williamson following into third. The Keno, Oregon pilot faced traffic again in the closing circuits and handled a late restart with eight to go to seal the win. The [Read More]
