Drivers Head South; IMCA Saturdays at NCR

Many area drivers have headed south for the winter, or for the week as they take part in the Winter Extreme Tour in Arizona. Some of the drivers taking part that you may be familiar with include Tyler Peterson, Austin Arneson, Rusty Kollman, Cody Skytland, Mike Stearns, Don Shaw, Ricky Weiss, Blake Jetvig, Ward Imrie, Donny Schatz, Ryan Cousins, Mike Balcaen, and Scott Bintz.

I would love to update you on how everyone of them is doing, however, there doesn't appear to be any results posted online. Via Facebook and Twitter I did discover some of local guys having some luck. Tyler Peterson got 2nd his first night of racing and won the feature on his second night. That's a hell of an accomplishment considering these races feature drivers from all across the country. Also Austin Arneson and Cody Skytland managed top 10s on Saturday and Austin got a top 5 on Sunday. I have a feeling Austin will manage to get a victory before he heads back north. Those Arneson boys always shine in big races.

If anybody has results I would gladly post them for everyone to see. There is some videos and content available on Dirtondirt.com, but most of it you have to be premium (paid) subscriber for.

Norman County Raceway to feature monthly IMCA Saturday race

Norman County Raceway, who announced last month that they will be adding IMCA Sport Mods to their Thursday line up on occasion, will feature a monthly Saturday IMCA program. Those dates include May 31st, June 28th,  July 26th, and August 16th. All those dates will feature the IMCA Mods, IMCA Sport Mods, and IMCA Sport Compacts (except June 28th), and NCR Pure Stocks. School bus racing will also be a part of the June 28th program.

Street Stocks will be added to a few more shows this year. 13 Shows overall, including the first 5 races of the year. Last year they were on for 11 shows at NCR.

We are currently working on our broadcast schedule for the year on 106.5 KRJB, but once again we will more than likely be broadcasting most, if not all, of the Thursday night races, and possible a few Saturday night shows too.
