Thursday Night at the Hancock County Speedway was the 25th Annual Night of 1,000 Stars sponsored by IMT Transport. Night of 1,000 Stars was created in 1995 and originally scheduled to run at the Boone Speedway before mother nature forced it to be moved to Britt. After moved to Britt, the USMTS was scheduled to have a race down at the Hamilton County Speedway on the same nights but fell victim so drivers made the trip to Home of the Hobo Convention and the Hancock County Speedway was on the Map.
The track became an idea in 1994 when the Wright County Speedway just south of Belmond was forced to close and held its first race on June 30th, 1995. This season marked the 25th Anniversary season and 3rd season under the helm of 4 Wide Promotions.
One Hundred Thirty One Cars signed in for Night one of Stars Weekend at the Hancock County Speedway including 56 IMCA Modifieds, 28 IMCA Sport Mods, 29 IMCA Stock Cars and 16 IMCA Hobby Stocks. Ricky Thornton Jr, Brayton Carter, Derek Green and Cody Nielsen among winners.
First feature of the night was the House Motorsports IMCA Sport Mods 15 lap feature event. Colby Fett jumped out to the early race lead but he knew that Brayton Carter was going to make his way up to battle for the race lead. Fett held on to a comfortable lead until a caution came out on lap 10 for Autum Anderson sitting in turn four. On the restart, Fett had to contend with Jared Boumeester, Kansas Hot Shoe Dakota Sproul, Sport Mod Nationals Champion Johnathon Logue and Brayton Carter. Fett held off all initial challenges until Carter made the move and took the top spot away on lap 13. Carter out dueled Fett for the second time this week to take the win. Fett finished second, Boumeester was third, Sproul was fourth and Jake McBirnie took fifth away from Logue.
Matt Speckman led the first fourteen laps of the Quick Performance IMCA Stock Car 20 lap feeature event before Derek Green was able to wrestle the lead away. Green and the field saw the caution come out on lap 18 for Kyle Rose in turn two. Green was determined to not be denied as he held on the final two laps to take the win. Speckman, Kelly Shryock, Chad Palmer and Justin Temeyer rounded out the top five.
In the MPM Marketing IMCA Hobby Stocks 15 lap feature, James Burns led the opening lap before Cody Nielsen took the top spot away. Nielsen saw a pair of cautions on lap three, first for Ben Peterson in turn four and then on the restart for Connor Smith in turn two. Nielsen held on to take the win over his Brother Brandon Nielsen. Drew Barglof finished third, Burns was fourth and Zac Smith was fifth.
Final feature of the night was the 50 lap IMT Transport Night of 1,000 Stars IMCA Modifieds feature event. Six heats, Three B-Features and Provisionals determined the 30 car 3 wide starting lineup. There would be a 10 minute pit stop on lap 25. Benji LaCrosse from Green Bay, Wisconisn grabbed the early lead but just after one lap was scored the caution came out for Kollin Hibdon in turn four. LaCrosse held off Ethan Dotson and Ricky Thronton Jr on the restart but they again saw the yellow come out on lap four for David Brown in turn one. LaCrosse was looking good but Thornton did not go away as he was able to take the top spot away on lap 20. Two laps later on lap 22, the caution came out when Richie Gustin came to a stop in turn four. Thornton led the final three laps before the pit stop to pick up the $1,000 Halfway Leader Bonus. Thornton, LaCrosse, Dotson, Jake O'Neil and Tom Berry Jr was first through fifth at Halfway. Cayden Carter, Cody Laney, Kyle Brown, Jeff Larson and Tim Ward rounded out the top ten.
Thornton wondered at halfway if fuel issues were going to resurface but the answer was no as he led the entire second half of the race, that went caution free. This was Thornton's second win during the Nights of Stars Weekend at the Hancock County Speedway as he won last years Night of 10,000 Stars. Tom Berry Jr came across the line in second for the third night in a row. LaCrosse finished third, Dotson was fourth and O'Neil was fifth. Carter, Kyle Brown, Laney, Nick Meyer and Mike Mullen rounded out the top ten.
Nights of Stars was set to continue on Friday Night with the Night 10,000 Stars sponsored by Corteva Agriscence, Asmus Farm Supply and Pioneer Seeds. Then on Saturday Night with Bob Shryock Memorial Night of All-Stars sponsored by Lake Mills Motorsports and Bayer Crop Science.

Arneson and Carter Take Nail Bitters at the Harris Clash
Last year the Harris Clash moved to the Deer Creek Speedway in between Spring Valley, Minnesota and Grand Meadows, Minnesota but I was unable to attend because the very next day I was heading to the Hancock County Speedway for Nights of Stars Weekend that had a Wednesday Night practice.
This year however with no practice night before the Nights of Stars meaning I had one day to get ready before heading up early on Thursday, it meant if I could make it work the trip to Deer Creek would happen. After talking to some friends and finding out they were heading up to watch it again, they invited me to tag along and we made the 3 hr trip from Marshalltown. Another reason it was priority for me to make the trip up to the Deer Creek Speedway, yesterday marked the one year passing of a great friend Tim Stevens and he had always told me I need to make the trip up to the 3/8 mile. Thanks Michael Duffy and Kyle Kirk for leading the Foxman tag along, it was a fun road trip up and back home in which we arrived back around 3 am just over 12 hours after we left Marshalltown.
What can I say about the Deer Creek Speedway, it is one top notch facility and the Queensland Family, owners of the facility, are amazing people and if it was closer you can bet I would go more often because I had fun making my first ever visit to the race track. It was also nice to finally hear the legendary voice of Deer Creek Announcer Todd Narveson as he worked alongside my tag team partner Chad Meyer.
Racing action was amazing all night long with both 28th Annual Harris Clash presented by TraLo Companies coming down to the checkered flag but heats and b features did not disappoint this fan. The racing was well worth the Twenty dollars to sit in the grandstands and watch at Deer Creek. One Hundred Fourty Four cars signed in to the pit area including 92 IMCA Modifieds and 52 IMCA Northern Sport Mods to see if they would be crown Harris Clash Champions. The 2019 Manufacturer Cup Champion is VanderBuilt Race Cars.
IMCA Northern Sport Mods had eight heats with top two going to the A Main, 4 b-features with top two going to the A Main to set the field at 24 cars. IMCA Modifieds ran 12 heats with only the winner to the A Main, 6 b-features with top two from each going to the A Main and the top non-qualifer in the Race of Champions Race would received the past champion provisional.
In the IMCA Modifieds Race of Champions Race, it paid $1,000 to win and $100 to start. Highest finishing driver not already qualifed for the Harris Clash A Main would be awarded the Champions's provisional. Driver must have a current IMCA Modified License, Sport Mod Champions that have moved up were eligible and drives would randomly draw their starting spot. Richie Gustin (2010 & 2017 HC Champion) and Kelly Shryock (1993 & 1997 HC Champion) drew the front row for the 12 lap race but the initial start was called back by Race Director Justin Queensland. On the restart, Gustin jumped out to the race lead and went on to take the win. Last Year's Harris Clash Winner Cayden Carter finished second, Shryock finished third, Joel Rust finished fourth and Ethan Dotson was fifth. Jesse Sobbing , Jacob Murray, Mark Noble, Chris Abelson, Jared Van Deest and Jeremie Hedrick rounded out the field.
Brayton Carter jumped out to the early race lead of the IMCA Northern Sport Mods 25 Lap Harris Clash A Main. Just after the completion of lap one the only race caution came out when Jared Boumeester came to a stop in turn three after he made heavy contact with the wall in turn two. Carter held off Logan Anderson and Colby Fett on the restart and pulled away. Fett was able to reel back down Carter and showed his nose several times with Carter hanging on to the race lead. Lap traffic started to get heavy in front of the leadrs and Fett knew he needed to make a move to take the top spot away. Carter bobbled in turn four allowing Fett to race him to the checkers with both unsure if they had won or not until Carter was told he won by .019 secs at the line over Fett. Anderson ran third the entire distance. Zach Nitsch from Delia, Kansas finished fourth ahead of Carter VanDenBerg. Jim Chisholm finished sixth and was the Hard Charger moving up 12 spots from eighteenth. Thirteenth place starter Doug Smith, twelfth place starter Dakota Sproul, seventeenth place starter Jason Bass and Daniel Fellows rounded out the top ten.
Final race of the night was the 30 lap Harris Clash A Main for the IMCA Modifieds. Tom Berry Jr and Joe Duvall led the field to the green flag with Duvall grabbing the lead, Berry saw Cayden Carter also get by him on the start. Carter took the lead away from Duvall on lap three. Carter held off challenges from Duvall and Berry to hang on to the race until the caution came out on lap 13 when Stacey Mills spun collecting Jeff Aikey and Mike Mullen in turn two. Carter had to deal with Berry, Duvall, Austin Arneson and Richie Gustin on the restart and initial he held them off until Berry made a move to take the top spot away momentarily on lap 18. Carter refused to go away and tried to make move in turn one but Arneson was also trying to make move to get by both and he did exactly that. Arneson took the race lead away on lap 19 and it appeared Arneson would take the easy win but lap traffic got heavy in the late stages allowing Berry to reel him back in. Berry tried to pull a slider on Arneson but Anreson was ready as he crossed over and took the win. Berry finished second, Cayden Carter finished third, sixteenth place starter Jake O'Neil finished fourth and Ricky Thronton Jr finished fifth. Thirteenth place starter Richie Gustin, fifteenth place starter Mike Mullen, Brad Diercks, eighteenth place starter Ethan Dotson and twenty second place starter Corey Dripps rounded out the top ten. O'Neil and Dripps were the Hard Charges as each moved up 12 spots. Shryock was the past champion provisional.
Great Job by Bob Harris and his team from Bob Harris Enterprises, Queensland Family (Randy, Ryan, Susan, Justin & Cole) and IMCA for putting a fantastic night of racing. Todd Narveson and Chad Meyer did a great job behind the microphone all night and if you want to catch the replay of entire night, than get a monthly or yearly subscription to IMCATV because Bucky, Barry and the entire team do an amazing job as well.
After a Wednesday Night off, I will be off to the Hancock County Speedway for the Nights of Stars Weekend. It gets underway with the 25th Annual IMT Transport Night of 1000 Stars on Thursday. Friday features the Corteva Agriscence, Asmus Farm Supply and Pioneer Seeds Night of 10,000 Stars with the Lake Mills Motorsports and Bayer Crop Science Bob Shryock Memorial Night of All-Stars. IMCA Modifieds however can stay in the State of 10,000 Lakes and race at the Fairmont Racewy for the Bob Shyrock Memorial featuring the IMCA Dirt Knights Tour.

This year however with no practice night before the Nights of Stars meaning I had one day to get ready before heading up early on Thursday, it meant if I could make it work the trip to Deer Creek would happen. After talking to some friends and finding out they were heading up to watch it again, they invited me to tag along and we made the 3 hr trip from Marshalltown. Another reason it was priority for me to make the trip up to the Deer Creek Speedway, yesterday marked the one year passing of a great friend Tim Stevens and he had always told me I need to make the trip up to the 3/8 mile. Thanks Michael Duffy and Kyle Kirk for leading the Foxman tag along, it was a fun road trip up and back home in which we arrived back around 3 am just over 12 hours after we left Marshalltown.
What can I say about the Deer Creek Speedway, it is one top notch facility and the Queensland Family, owners of the facility, are amazing people and if it was closer you can bet I would go more often because I had fun making my first ever visit to the race track. It was also nice to finally hear the legendary voice of Deer Creek Announcer Todd Narveson as he worked alongside my tag team partner Chad Meyer.
Racing action was amazing all night long with both 28th Annual Harris Clash presented by TraLo Companies coming down to the checkered flag but heats and b features did not disappoint this fan. The racing was well worth the Twenty dollars to sit in the grandstands and watch at Deer Creek. One Hundred Fourty Four cars signed in to the pit area including 92 IMCA Modifieds and 52 IMCA Northern Sport Mods to see if they would be crown Harris Clash Champions. The 2019 Manufacturer Cup Champion is VanderBuilt Race Cars.
IMCA Northern Sport Mods had eight heats with top two going to the A Main, 4 b-features with top two going to the A Main to set the field at 24 cars. IMCA Modifieds ran 12 heats with only the winner to the A Main, 6 b-features with top two from each going to the A Main and the top non-qualifer in the Race of Champions Race would received the past champion provisional.
In the IMCA Modifieds Race of Champions Race, it paid $1,000 to win and $100 to start. Highest finishing driver not already qualifed for the Harris Clash A Main would be awarded the Champions's provisional. Driver must have a current IMCA Modified License, Sport Mod Champions that have moved up were eligible and drives would randomly draw their starting spot. Richie Gustin (2010 & 2017 HC Champion) and Kelly Shryock (1993 & 1997 HC Champion) drew the front row for the 12 lap race but the initial start was called back by Race Director Justin Queensland. On the restart, Gustin jumped out to the race lead and went on to take the win. Last Year's Harris Clash Winner Cayden Carter finished second, Shryock finished third, Joel Rust finished fourth and Ethan Dotson was fifth. Jesse Sobbing , Jacob Murray, Mark Noble, Chris Abelson, Jared Van Deest and Jeremie Hedrick rounded out the field.
Brayton Carter jumped out to the early race lead of the IMCA Northern Sport Mods 25 Lap Harris Clash A Main. Just after the completion of lap one the only race caution came out when Jared Boumeester came to a stop in turn three after he made heavy contact with the wall in turn two. Carter held off Logan Anderson and Colby Fett on the restart and pulled away. Fett was able to reel back down Carter and showed his nose several times with Carter hanging on to the race lead. Lap traffic started to get heavy in front of the leadrs and Fett knew he needed to make a move to take the top spot away. Carter bobbled in turn four allowing Fett to race him to the checkers with both unsure if they had won or not until Carter was told he won by .019 secs at the line over Fett. Anderson ran third the entire distance. Zach Nitsch from Delia, Kansas finished fourth ahead of Carter VanDenBerg. Jim Chisholm finished sixth and was the Hard Charger moving up 12 spots from eighteenth. Thirteenth place starter Doug Smith, twelfth place starter Dakota Sproul, seventeenth place starter Jason Bass and Daniel Fellows rounded out the top ten.
Final race of the night was the 30 lap Harris Clash A Main for the IMCA Modifieds. Tom Berry Jr and Joe Duvall led the field to the green flag with Duvall grabbing the lead, Berry saw Cayden Carter also get by him on the start. Carter took the lead away from Duvall on lap three. Carter held off challenges from Duvall and Berry to hang on to the race until the caution came out on lap 13 when Stacey Mills spun collecting Jeff Aikey and Mike Mullen in turn two. Carter had to deal with Berry, Duvall, Austin Arneson and Richie Gustin on the restart and initial he held them off until Berry made a move to take the top spot away momentarily on lap 18. Carter refused to go away and tried to make move in turn one but Arneson was also trying to make move to get by both and he did exactly that. Arneson took the race lead away on lap 19 and it appeared Arneson would take the easy win but lap traffic got heavy in the late stages allowing Berry to reel him back in. Berry tried to pull a slider on Arneson but Anreson was ready as he crossed over and took the win. Berry finished second, Cayden Carter finished third, sixteenth place starter Jake O'Neil finished fourth and Ricky Thronton Jr finished fifth. Thirteenth place starter Richie Gustin, fifteenth place starter Mike Mullen, Brad Diercks, eighteenth place starter Ethan Dotson and twenty second place starter Corey Dripps rounded out the top ten. O'Neil and Dripps were the Hard Charges as each moved up 12 spots. Shryock was the past champion provisional.
Great Job by Bob Harris and his team from Bob Harris Enterprises, Queensland Family (Randy, Ryan, Susan, Justin & Cole) and IMCA for putting a fantastic night of racing. Todd Narveson and Chad Meyer did a great job behind the microphone all night and if you want to catch the replay of entire night, than get a monthly or yearly subscription to IMCATV because Bucky, Barry and the entire team do an amazing job as well.
After a Wednesday Night off, I will be off to the Hancock County Speedway for the Nights of Stars Weekend. It gets underway with the 25th Annual IMT Transport Night of 1000 Stars on Thursday. Friday features the Corteva Agriscence, Asmus Farm Supply and Pioneer Seeds Night of 10,000 Stars with the Lake Mills Motorsports and Bayer Crop Science Bob Shryock Memorial Night of All-Stars. IMCA Modifieds however can stay in the State of 10,000 Lakes and race at the Fairmont Racewy for the Bob Shyrock Memorial featuring the IMCA Dirt Knights Tour.
