Szecsodi sizzles at Tri-City

AUBURN, Mich. (June 8) – Matt Szecsodi made his second visit of the season to victory lane at Tri-City Motor Speedway after taking over the lead of the Main Street Seed and Supply IMCA Modified feature on the 10th lap. The start of the feature was dominated by Craig Vance as he drove the bottom line to pace the field.  At lap nine, it was Chad Wernette who fought his way from mid -pack to lead. His turn up front would only last a lap as Szecsodi took over the lead. Nate Jones also fought his way through the field and got to second.  But without the help of any caution flags, Szecsodi’s lead was too big to overcome. Szecsodi parked in victory lane with his second feature win of 2018.  Jones grabbed his third runner-up finish of the season. Jones was followed by Wernette, Drasco, Ark., driver Heath Grizzle, and 19th starting Chris Cohoon.

Bolac is the fastest at Dixieland’s Fast Friday 

By Jim Haines ELIZABETH CITY, N.C. (June 8) – Dixieland Speedway hosted the first Virginia Sprint Series Fast Friday event of the season after an earlier rainout and Daren Bolac was the fastest at his hometown track. Bill Rice and Chris Ware paced to IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car field to green with Ware getting the run off the top and Rice down low. Ware was steady up top but ultimately no match for Bolac, who proved the bottom was fast as well in taking away the lead. Tom Humphries got by Rice and was shadowing Ware lap after lap but their pursuit was changing every corner of every lap as Jerald Harris, C.J. Faison, Tony Harris, Jake McLain, Jeff Taylor and Randy Sterling were all in a pack. Bolac stayed strong up front and Humphries got by Ware, leaving him to deal with Faison. Bolac was just not going to be caught as the checkered flag was waving for a popular win with Hum­phries second and Faison third. Next it’s a first-time visit to Hagerstown, [Read More]

Muenster tops Modified main at Luxemburg 

By Scott Owen LUXEMBURG, Wis. (June 8) – In the racing world, it’s an impressive feat to win two races in a row, but to do it on back-to-back nights on two distinctly different surfaces is something rarely seen anymore. Eddie Muenster pulled it off, though, scoring a late model win on Thursday night and following it up with his first IMCA Modified win of the season Friday at Luxemburg Speedway. Chase Parker led early on, with Muenster and Brian Mullen hot on his heels. Parker did his best to keep the veterans at bay but Muenster eventually found his way past for the lead. Mullen also passed Parker and began to pester Muenster for the top spot. As Parker began to fade, Shawn Kilgore and Mike Mullen came from deep in the field to join the top four. At the end, Muenster held off Mullen for the win followed by 12th starting Kilgore, and 13th starting Mike Mul­len. Parker held on for a strong fifth place finish in the caution-free affair. Brett Wenzel nearly equaled Muenster’s accomplishment, finishing [Read More]

Woken wins IMCA Stock Car feature at Lincoln County

By Kelly Ninas NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (June 2) – Saying that the competition was fierce would be an understate­ment when watching action at Lincoln County Raceway Saturday night. There were four lead changes in an IMCA Sunoco Stock Car feature that saw Casey Woken drive from 10th starting to the top of the podium. Andrew Baumgardner also drove from the fifth row to score top Mach-1 Sport Compact honors. Taking advantage of a tacky track, Colton Osborn was the victor in the IMCA Modified feature. Osborn started in the second row and took the lead on the seventh lap as he never looked back on his way to the checkers. Jamey Kennicutt led every lap to earn the win in the Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMod main and a see-saw battle in the waning laps of the IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stock feature went the way of Luke Wassom.

Mashl tops Luxemburg lidlifter 

LUXEMBURG, Wis. (June 1) – It took just shy of a full month from the originally scheduled opener, but Luxemburg Speedway was finally able to defeat Mother Nature and get its first official championship point show in the books Friday night. For Mike Mashl, it was worth the wait. Mashl parlayed a front row starting into a wire to wire victory, besting a loaded field of 32 cars to in the tough IMCA Modified division. Mashl took control early, but before he could get any separation, a four car wreck in corner one on the third lap brought the feature to a standstill. Back under green, Mashl was able to build a cushion over the pack as several teams vied for se­cond. By lap seven, three emerged as the prime candidates for the spot, Johnny Whitman, Benji LaCrosse and Russ Reinwald. Reinwald started deepest on the grid, in the fourth row, passing Brad Lautenbach and Tony Wedelstadt to gain a top five running position. In just a couple laps, Reinwald dispensed with Whitman and LaCrosse, [Read More]
