SPRING VALLEY, Minn. (Sept. 9, 2025)—The Altenburg Construction Stock Car Nationals has quickly become a must attend event for both racers and fans alike. The 2025 event will be the seventh year hosted by the Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn.

This year’s race will be held on Saturday, September 13 and the Stock Car A-Main will once again pay $10,000 to the winner. The USRA Hobby Stocks will continue to be a part of the program racing for $1500 to win.

Let’s take a look at the history of this event, first with the Stock Cars. There have been five different winners in the first six years. Dillon Anderson of Decorah, IA won the inaugural event in 2019. Kyle Falck of Decorah, IA won the first of his two titles in 2020 and the other came in 2022. Eljah Zevenbergen of Ocheyedan, IA won the race in 2021. Dylan Thornton of Orcutt, CA was the 2023 champion and Kelly Shryock of Fertile, IA is the defending race champion.

No driver has made all six A-Mains, but five drivers have five starts. Falck is one of those and besides his two wins has a top five finish too. Other drivers with five starts are Derek Green, Chanse Hollatz, Mitch Hovden and Lynn Panos.
