It was suppose to be night #2 of Iowa Speedweeks but with mother nature taking Alta away on Monday it was night #1 now. There was 138 cars signed in to do battle on the high-banks of Marshalltown. 56 IMCA Sport Mods and 47 IMCA Stock Cars were signed in to race for $1,000 to win.
The first feature of the night was the IMCA Sport Compacts. Dallas Chandler and Nathan Chandler would lead them too the green but before a lap could be completed the yellow would come out for debris. On the restart it was Nathan Chandler taking the lead but just after 1 lap was in the books the red flag would come out as Bill Whalen Jr would roll off the top of turn 2. Whalen would climb from the car and be okay. The last 11 laps would be run caution free and it was Nathan Chandler taking the win. Merv Chandler would finish 2nd, Tyler Whalen was 3rd, Jer Pederson came across the line in 4th but disqualifed in post race tech so that moved up John Whalen to 4th and Dallas Chandler to 5th.
IMCA Hobby Stocks 20 lap feature was up next, Kevin Fee and Calvin Dhondt would lead the field to the green. Fee would take the early race lead but would have somebody on his back bumper every lap. The caution would come out on lap 2 for a few cars getting together on the frontstretch. Fee again would maintain control but the caution came out on lap 8 for David Castellano in turn 2. Fee and the field would again see the caution come out on lap 11 for Andy Boeckman coming to a stop in turn 4. The final caution would come out the next lap for Dhondt going around in turn 4. On this restart though Fee would have to deal with Brandon Pruitt, Pruitt would make the pass and go on to take the win. Michael Murphy, Randy Embrey, Dustin Elliott and Eric Stanton would finish 2nd through 5th.
Toby K's Hideaway 1K for the IMCA Sport Mods was up next. Before 1 lap was completed there would be 3 cautions, Cory Rose would go around in turn 2 then 3 cars would get together in turn 2 and the final one was a single car incident. When racing got going it was Madrid's Scott Davis taking the early lead but 3rd row inside starter Cayden Carter would make the pass on lap 2 but would have to worry about Davis in the later stages in the races again after the red flag came out on lap 13 for David Schlicht, Schlicht would climb from the car okay after he rolled on the frontstretch after contact with Doug Smith. Carter would hold off Davis and take the win. Randy Roberts took 3rd, Austin Kaplan was 4th and Kyle Brown was 5th.
The final feature would make this class live up to its name of "Class Too Tough To Tame" IMCA Stock Cars. Before 1 lap would be completed in the 30 lap feature the yellow would come out forcing the straight up restart. On the restart it was Mike VanGenderen taking the early lead but then after 3 laps were down the caution would come out again for Mike Nichols in turn 4. VanGenderen would still remain out front until the next caution on lap 7. VanGenderen would now have Sean Johnson, Donavon Smith, John Heinz, Jay Schmidt, Schmidt started the feature 16th. Jay Schmidt would make the pass and take the lead from VanGenderen on lap 9. Schmidt would hold on to that lead until lap 27 depsite a caution on lap 19. On lap 28, Schmidt would slide up and open the door for Donavon Smith would make the pass for the lead. The caution would come out of a single car incident on lap 28 setting up a green-white-checkered. Smith would take the win but 3 cars would get together in turn 2 to make it finish under yellow. 16th place starter Jay Schmidt got 2nd, 19th place start Trent Murphy took 3rd, Sean Johnson and Damon Murty was 4th and 5th.
Racing action came to an end at 11:20pm. Iowa Speedweek's will continue at the Independence Motor Speedway tomorrow night with IMCA Stock Cars, IMCA Late Models and IMCA Sport Mods.
