By Josh Reynolds STUART, Iowa (June 26) – If the script from Sunday’s Stew Hansen Dodge Stock Car Shootout at Stuart Speedway sounded familiar, it’s because you saw it played out last season, too. Josh Pruitt borrowed his father Terry’s IMCA Sunoco Stock Car, won the main event and took home $1,000 for the second straight year. Mike Harris and Pruitt pulled the first two chips out of the bucket and led the field to green. Pruitt held the top spot early over Harris and Damon Murty. Murty moved to second on lap five and set his sights on the lead, but a flat tire on lap 10 ended his night and turned over second to Marcus Fagan. Fagan stayed zeroed in on Pruitt until the yellow flew on lap 19. The cars bunched up for the final restart of the night, and while everyone was doing the chasing, Pruitt set sail to take his second straight Shootout by nearly half a straightaway. Terry Klocke finished second with Jay Schmidt third, Fagan fourth and Todd [Read More]

ARLINGTON, Minn. (June 25) – John Albrecht led the entire Unhinged Pizza IMCA Northern SportMod feature Saturday at Arlington Raceway. A first lap caution was thrown but that was the only thing to slow Albrecht in the drive to his first checkers of the season. Tim Bergerson passed Jeremy Brown to take second and Tony Rialson was fourth. Ryan Bryant won his first feature of the year in the Coors Light IMCA Sport Compacts. He led from start to finish in the caution-free race with Jed Trebelhorn following and Alan Lahr a close third. Mike Vogt was the early leader in the Premier Logistics IMCA Hobby feature but two caution flags in the first two laps gave Cory Probst extra leverage to get to the front of the pack. By lap three, he was leading the race with Brad Becker moving forward to take second. Third went to Vogt. Brandon Allen started on pole of the 95.7 IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car race and that is where he stayed for the distance. Completing the top three [Read More]

The KISS 107 FM IMCA Sport Compact division saw a tangle at the initial start that took point leader Ramsey Meyer out of contention for the remainder of the evening. On the restart, Lewis Maine took control of the lead from his front row starting spot and held off a challenge from Luke Jackson with two laps remaining to take his first feature win. Behind Maine and Jackson, Andrew Harris and Tracy Raml rounded out the top four. The CarQuest IMCA Hobby Stock division also saw a first-time winner when Steven Pierce made perseverance pay by holding off most of the field from his front row starting position. He picked up his first career win when the first car under the checkered flag failed post race inspection. Behind Pierce, Aaron Shearn finished second followed by Tony Fetterman and Matt Baker.

By Kelly Ninas LEXINGTON, Neb. (June 26) – Racing action was fast-paced with multiple grooves being used at Lexington Raceway Sunday evening. Piloting their racers to the winner’s circle were Colton Os­born, Denny Egge, Mike Nichols and Jacob Olmstead. There was a neck-and-neck battle over the final laps between Jacob Wolsleben and Olmstead. Heavy contact between the duo during the white flag lap brought out the caution and resulted in a dash for the feature win and Wolsleben was forced to change a flat tire to rejoin the field. Olmstead grabbed the lead on the 10th lap restart and held off all challengers for the win. Brady Weinman worked his way into second while Luke Wassom rallied for third. Competition was fierce for the lead position for much of the Xtreme Motor Sports IMCA Modified feature with the lead being exchanged five times.  Osborn, driving his ‘Back in Black’ rocketship, took the lead for good on the ninth lap and cruised to the victory. Second was Anthony Roth and Iowan Joel Bushore had an outstanding performance [Read More]
