J.D. Auringer won the USRA Modified main event.

Teacher Appreciation Night presented by Pepsi provided fans with a night of heart-stopping racing action at the Hamilton County Speedway while also paying tribute to our everyday heroes in the classroom.

Drivers walked the grandstands with helmets in hand and many in attendance generously donated cash to the Jones family who lost their son this past week. More than $2,750 was raised to help the freshman promoters of the Sports Park Raceway in Fort Dodge.

The Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series was back featuring five divisions in action on the smooth half-mile clay oval.

USRA Modifieds saw defending track champion J.D. Auringer of Waterloo pick up the win the eighth-starting Mark Elliott of Webster City second, ninth-starting Scott Olson of Blairsburg third, Dennis Elliott of Mt. Ayr in fourth and 12-starting Nate Hughes of Humboldt rounding out the top five.

Myles Michehl of Fort Dodge topped the American Racer USRA Stock Car main event by holding off polesitter Jesse Brown of Nashua. Last year’s track champion, Reid Keller of Webster City, finished third while Bill Crimmins of Fort Dodge and Webster City’s Justin Ades were fourth and fifth at the finish line.

USRA B-Mods saw Latimer’s Levi Chipp score a victory. The rest of the top five positions were filled by Brandon Toftee of Otho, Rocky Caudle of Ellsworth, Doug McCollough of Webster City and Ty Griffith of Webster City.

Defending Mensink Racing Products USRA Hobby Stock track and national champion Eric Stanton of Carlisle led wire to wire and held off the challenges of Scott Dobel of Manly for the win. Third was Cory Roe of Webster City, fourth went to Carlisle’s Tyson Overton and Riley Crimmins of Fort Dodge finished fifth.

Jade Lange of Humboldt scored his first checkered flag in the USRA Tuners, beating Fort Dodge’s Matt Oberhelman to the stripe. John Gill of Marshalltown, Ryan Bryant of Mason City and Justin Nielson of Lu Verne rounded out the top five.

A doubleheader week of racing is set to resume Thursday, June 11, with the Malvern Bank SLMR Super Late Model Series taking center stage. The Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series featuring USRA B-Mods, Mensink Racing Products USRA Hobby Stocks and USRA Tuners will also be in action.

Two days later on Saturday, June 13, it’s “Racing for the Right Reasons” featuring the Super Late Models powered by Jerry Goebel State Farm plus the Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series featuring USRA Modifieds, American Racer USRA Stock Cars, USRA B-Mods, Mensink Racing Products USRA Hobby Stocks and USRA Tuners

Opening in July 1910, the Hamilton County Speedway is the oldest speedway in the state of Iowa. In 1938, work began on the current location at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds. The semi-banked half-mile dirt track was completed in the spring of 1939, and the first races were held on the track in September of that year.

The Hamilton County Speedway is located off US 20 at exit 140, then 1.2 miles north, then 0.5 mile east on Bank St., then 0.4 mile south on Bluff St. to the Hamilton County Fairgrounds in Webster City, Iowa. The physical address is 1200 Bluff St, Webster City, IA 50595.
