Travis Finke and Jordan Gerling led the Kauffman Electric IMCA Stock Car field to green but it was fifth starting Rod Staats in the lead when lap one was scored.

As the battle for second heated up, Bell pulled away over the final nine laps to pick up his third win of the season at the track.

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]

He led from start to finish in the caution-free race with Jed Trebelhorn following and Alan Lahr a close third.

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.
