By Joe Orsini SEYMOUR, Wis. (Jun. 27, 2025) — The Friesen Performance IMCA Modified main at Outagamie Speedway saw Cole Czarneski grab the early lead and pace the field through the opening laps.

The two frontrunners dueled door-to-door for several laps before Woods regained the advantage for good on lap 17. Woods went on to score his first win of the season in the Razor Chassis North Central Region. Czarneski finished second, with Johnny Whitman completing the top three.

Kaytee DeVries: Hitting the Century Mark in Sport Compacts

By Ben Deatherage SPENCER, Iowa (Jun. 26, 2025) — On a warm Friday night, June 20, in Slayton, Minnesota, Kaytee DeVries did something only three other IMCA Mach-1 Sport Compact drivers had done before her. At Murray County Speedway, she passed under the checkers for her 100th career sanctioned win, finally reaching a milestone that had narrowly eluded her for nearly a year. “I had win number 99 last August at Slayton,” she said. “So to finally get 100 — and to do it at the same track — it was kind of poetic.” Now in her 15th season, DeVries becomes just the fourth driver in IMCA Sport Compact history to reach the century mark, joining Nate Coopman (297), Ramsey Meyer (230), and Caine Mahlberg (111). Her path to the top wasn’t without struggle. In fact, she almost didn’t get there at all. “It’s true what they say — that last one to 100 can be the hardest,” she admitted. “At the beginning of this year I had all kinds of issues. I’d be leading a [Read More]

Shryock Wins Stock Car Shootout Special at Kossuth County

By Greg Grabianowski ALGONA, Iowa (June 19, 2025) — Kelly Shryock has been the dominant Sunoco IMCA Stock Car driver in special feature races around Northwest Iowa early this summer. That trend continued Thursday night at Kossuth County Speedway, as the veteran driver added another win to his collection. Shryock took the lead on the fifth circuit of the 25-lap main event and navigated through lapped traffic in the closing stages to hold off a serious challenge from Justin Luinenburg. The Stock Car Shootout win was worth $2,000 and marked Shryock’s ninth victory of the season in the EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region, and third Stock Car triumph at Algona in 2025. Zayn Feaster and Jordan Rogotzke led the field to the green as each of the starters were guaranteed at least $200 to take the green flag. Feaster led the opening four laps before Shryock took command. Shryock and Luinenburg steadily pulled away from the field and caught lapped traffic with seven to go, setting up a cat-and-mouse game through slower cars. Luinenburg stayed close [Read More]
