Spring special at I-70 Motorsports Park one for IMCA Modified, Stock Car record book

ODESSA, Mo. (March 28, 2022) – A spring special at I-70 Motorsports Park will be one for the record book as both IMCA Modifieds and IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars make first-ever appearances at the Show-Me State Oval April 1 and 2. The motorsports park property, purchased by Chris Payne and Steve Bailey in 2016, features a high-banked clay oval 3/8’s of a mile around on the very bottom and more than half a mile around at the very top. “Modified and Stock Car drivers are going to be the first IMCA drivers to race here. We’ve run a couple sprint car events here but that’s it. No Modifieds or Stock Cars have ever been at this track,” said Track Manager Tommie Estes. “It’s big and it’s wide – the narrowest part of the track is 83 feet and that’s on the front straightaway – and it’s got some bank to it. I think it’s a great track for IMCA cars.” I-70 has seating for 9,000 fans, including 5,000 stadium [Read More]

Hard work pays off for Hamilton with career first IMCA Southern SportMod feature win at Stampede

LINDSAY, Okla. (March 25, 2022) – Tim Hamilton figured he’d had enough and quit racing eight years ago. Now he’s back on the track and can’t get enough time behind the wheel of a Smiley’s Racing Products Southern SportMod. From Lindsay, Hamilton raced to his career first feature win in the division on opening night March 18 of the IMCA Stampede special at home track Southern Oklahoma Speedway. “Finally! After all our hard work,” said Hamilton. “It certainly wasn’t a win that was given to me and I knew my wife Tandra was way happier than I was. My dad George and brother Justin both took off work and were there helping so it was great to be able to win that night.” The $1,000 checkers, he noted, came in a 2014 Western Flyer car previously owned by track promoter John Webb and purchased from Trey Willoughby. “It’s pretty old but it’s been updated. We’ve just raced the crap out of it,” said Hamilton, who had a couple third-place finishes and finished 16th in point standings [Read More]

Maupin prevails in IMCA Modified opener at I-37

By J.M. Hallas PLEASANTON, Texas (March 19, 2022) – Spring has (almost) sprung, with the new season only hours away before the green flag waved for the I-37 Speedway season opener on the ¼-mile, semi-banked dirt oval, just south of San Antonio. As the IMCA Modified 20-lap main fired off it was Jared Maupin off turn two with the lead trailed by Chris Morris, Cameron Starry, Robert Liese and Ryan Doyon in top five. After a quick spin and caution, Morris began his challenge on Maupin for the lead, throwing everything but the kitchen sink at him. Morris tried diving in low and got alongside Maupin, but Maupin held him off. Another quick spin-caution set up a repeat of Morris trying to stick the nose inside Maupin on the restart, to no avail. After a lap 16 restart, the top three broke away quickly back under green with Morris still trying to dive in under Maupin. Morris got his best chance on lap 18 getting door to door with Maupin on the back stretch, but [Read More]

By Don Martin II ANTIOCH, Calif. (March 19, 2022) – Kellen Chadwick picked up the win in the 20-lap IMCA Modified main event victory Saturday at Antioch Speedway.
