BOONE, Iowa – Drivers, crew members and race fans attending Super Nationals are reminded that ATVs and 4-wheelers are not allowed on public streets in Boone. While they can be used to get from point A to point B on the Boone Speedway grounds, driving them elsewhere in tow can and most likely will result in a citation and fine.

Bricen James made a nice charge from the back to finish third, followed by Clint Reichenbach and Robby Sawyer.

By Greg Soukup EAGLE, Neb. (Sept. 2) – A little precipitation didn’t dampen Kevin Ramey’s night. The Fort Worth, Texas, flyer reigned as champion of the sixth annual RaceSaver Nationals Sunday at Eagle Raceway, earning $2,500 plus a bonus based on his number of sanctioned starts this season. The checkers came after a late restart and ahead of defending race winner Jason Martin. Ramey, the IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car national points leader, had topped Friday’s opening night qualifier and started from the pole. Jake Bubak raced from his mid-pack start to third and Ethan Barrow was fourth. Luke Cranston followed as the top five was represented by drivers from as many different states. A light rain began to fall as cars were pushed out for the main event and continued throughout. Martin took the lead from his inside row one spot as Ramey fell to second and Casey Burkham’s settled into third with Barrow fourth. Barrow moved up to third on lap six with Cranston passing Burkham for fourth two laps later. Joey Danley joined [Read More]
PEORIA, Ariz. (Sept. 1-2) – Holiday weekend Shootout feature wins at Canyon Speedway Park put Guy Norton and Ryan Roath on the ballot for next year’s Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational ballot. Norton scored the $1,000 IMCA Modified checkers Saturday at Canyon while Roath took home the same amount for the Sunday checkers. Norton and Roath tussled on opening night before finishing 1-2. John Parmeley led early before tangling with a lapped car; Chaz Baca borrowed a car from Jeff Stafford Sr. and led to lap 18, when brake issues took him out of contention. Bill Miller rounded out the top three. Parmeley again led early on Saturday while the ninth starting Roath worked his way up to second. Roath gained and then lost the lead to Jay Foster, who broke on the 19th circuit. Roath went on to the win head of Parmeley and Baca, back in the car he’d race at the IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s. George Fronsman swept the weekend’s IMCA Sunoco Stock Car features, in front of Baca [Read More]

The Prelude marked the IMCA Sunoco Stock Car debut for Crystal, Mich., driver Rob Brillhart. Brillhart bought the 2016 B & B Chassis out of Jackson, Minn., two weeks ago. The pro stock track champion this season at I-96 Speedway will put a check next to Super Nationals when Stock Car qualifying starts on Wednesday. “This is a dream come true. What more could you do than come to Super Nationals?” he asked. Learning on the fly, Brillhart was loose in Prelude hot laps, threw a street stock setup on his new ride and went to “oh boy” tight. While he’s a rookie in the class, Brillhart already shares the same dream as all the veterans of America’s Racin’ Vacation. “We’ve seen the lap times we wanted,” he said. “Being in the Saturday night field would be the ultimate.”
