Shantz Dominates at Harris Speedway for Second Career Carolina Sprint Tour Win

By Evan McCrory RUTHERFORDTON, N.C. (May 17, 2025) — The Carolina Sprint Tour presented by GSR Chassis rolled into Harris Speedway on Saturday night, for a spectacular night of open-wheel action. Despite losing a few entries from the previous night at Carolina Speedway, a strong field of 15 RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Cars put on an incredible show under the lights of Rutherford County. After the redraw, it was Biscuit Williams and Josh Shantz on the front row for the 25-lap main event. When the green flag dropped, Shantz, a former Canadian now racing out of the Carolinas, jumped to the lead and never looked back. In the caution-free feature, Shantz expertly fended off heavy pressure from George Loux to capture his second career Carolina Sprint Tour win. In victory lane, an emotional Shantz took the microphone from series announcer Evan McCrory and offered heartfelt thanks to mentors Eric Riggins, Dewey Townsend, and George Loux, along with appreciation for his sponsors and his wife Abby.

Sproul Wins Modified Thriller At WaKeeney

By Sheldon Wickwar WaKEENEY, Kan. (May 17, 2025) — WaKeeney Speedway brought the curtain down on the John Fose Memorial/Wall of Fame Weekend with a Friesen Performance IMCA Modified feature that lived up to the occasion. Jeremy Frenier took command early, storming to the lead as the field settled in behind him. But Daniel Gottschalk soon reeled him in, making the pass after a few circuits to take over the top spot. As the race reached the midway point, a four-car shootout began to take shape with Gottschalk, Frenier, Kyle Rohleder, and Dakota Sproul all in the mix. Gottschalk’s time out front was cut short when Rohleder powered to the lead, but Sproul was just hitting his stride. Methodically working the track, Sproul closed in and made a dramatic last lap pass on Rohleder to secure his second Jet Racing Central Region victory of the season. Rohleder settled for second with Frenier rounding out the podium.

Electrifying Charge to Front Nets Price BAPS Win

By Frank Buhrman YORK HAVEN, Pa. (May 18, 2025) — It wasn’t an easy climb, but Sunday night at BAPS Motor Speedway, Landon Price reached the top of the mountain again and enjoyed the view. Four years and nine months after he last visited victory lane in a River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series feature, Price returned Sunday, after an electrifying charge through the field from 11th starting position. That performance also earned the Fleetwood driver the hard charger award. After advancing from seventh to third in his heat race, the Price team’s pill-draw skills didn’t improve, and he picked 11th out of the 12 redraw starting spots, but when the race started, it quickly became obvious that something special was happening with the no. 69P team. Within five laps, Price had raced his way into the top five. From there, each pass came quickly as he sliced through the field. He caught leader Dustin Young on lap 17 and, after a brief side-by-side battle, took over the top spot with two laps remaining. He went on to [Read More]
