Spicer Breaks Through with PASS at Port Royal

By Frank Buhrman PORT ROYAL, Pa. (Jul. 12, 2025) — Josh Spicer is a proven frontrunner, with multiple wins to his credit, but in 86 prior starts with the River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series dating back to 2018, his best finishes were a pair of seconds. Saturday night at Port Royal Speedway, the racer from Julian – in Centre County just northwest of State College – took care of that issue and became the fourth racer to score his first ever PASS victory in 2025, leading all the way to claim the 20-lap feature. Spicer used the outside line to grab the early lead from his second starting position, with Friday night’s Selinsgrove winner Ken Duke Jr. following him. On lap eight, the defending PASS Champion slowed with engine failure. That moved Drew Young into the runner-up slot, and he would challenge Spicer on this and each subsequent restart, but Spicer was not to be denied. On lap 10, Tyler Schell and Dustin Young tangled, with Young hitting the outside wall between turns three and [Read More]

Duke Takes First PA Sprint Series Win of ’25 at Selinsgrove

By Frank Buhrman SELINSGROVE, Pa. (Jul. 11, 2025) – Ken Duke Jr. of Selinsgrove is the winningest active driver in the River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series and the reigning series champion, but 2025 had kept him out of victory lane—until Friday night, when “The Ice Man” used his home turf at Selinsgrove Speedway to score a decisive first win of the season. Three PASS championships and the 2019 RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car national title already give Duke a full trophy case, but there’s always room for another. Starting third in the 20-lap feature, Duke wasted no time making a veteran’s move—slipping past front row starters Jarrett Cavalet and Christian Rumsey exiting turn two on the opening lap to claim the lead. From there, he was in command, pulling ahead by more than three seconds on multiple occasions before traffic bunched the field. A lone caution on lap nine briefly erased his advantage, but Duke stayed composed and crossed the finish line 1.396 seconds ahead of Rumsey, collecting his eighth PASS win at Selinsgrove. That brings [Read More]

Henderson Charges to Redemption Win at I-90 Speedway

HARTFORD, S.D. (Jul. 12, 2025) –– Sam Henderson delivered a determined and emotional victory in the RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car special at I-90 Speedway, rebounding from a crash the night before to score his first IMCA win of the 2025 campaign. Just hours after suffering heartbreak at Jackson Motorplex while leading, the Sullivan Racing crew went into overdrive to field another machine for Henderson, a 23-year-old standout from Sioux Falls. The team prepped the backup no. 91H, and Henderson made it count. Starting sixth on the grid, Henderson steadily carved through the field during the 25-lap main event. Early race leader Andrew Sullivan, in the primary no. 91, looked strong after drawing the pole in the frontstretch redraw and paced the first half of the feature. But disaster struck again for the team, as Sullivan cut a right rear tire while holding the lead. Henderson inherited the top spot and never looked back, fending off a late-race challenge from Dusty Ballenger to secure the win. Lee Goos Jr. completed the podium with a solid third-place showing.

By Chris Kolstad BRAINERD, Minn. (Jul. 12, 2025) – The Sunoco IMCA Hobby Stock feature was hands down the race of the night at North Central Speedway. Josh Maleski jumped to the lead from the drop of the green and stretched out a sizable advantage over the field. Former track champions Mark Johnson and Brandon Bombardo methodically worked their way through traffic and settled into the top three in a caution-free 15-lap affair. Lapped traffic came into play with two laps to go, allowing Bombardo to close the gap to Maleski’s rear bumper. The two went at it hard in the final corners, slicing through traffic and getting together in turns three and four. Both cars slid sideways as they raced to the line in what looked like a near dead heat. Bombardo was scored the winner by inches, with Maleski second and Johnson third—until a minor post-race tech infraction cost Maleski the runner-up position, handing second to Johnson and third to Nick Dillenburg. The victory was Bombardo’s first of the season in the B&B Racing [Read More]
