Well race fans, we had a very busy weekend of racing across the territory. Let's get started.
The biggest IMCA racing event of the season invaded Estevan Motor Speedway for the annual Dakota Classic Mod Tour on Monday. 47 of the top modified drivers from North America competed in the tour's only Canadian stop. In the IMCA Stock Car class, 39 cars pitted at the Southeast Saskatchewan dirt oval.
When the dust settled it was Estevan's own Kody Scholpp who parked his 02S IMCA mod in victory lane. This was the second time in three years that Kody had won at his home track.
In IMCA Stock Car action, Troy Heupel of Williston, North Dakota parked his 4T stock car in victory lane.

Side Bites
Derek Pollock announced that his stock car, the one that keeps on winning, is for sale.
Due to unfortunate circumstances, Ricky Weiss is unable to return to the US to race at the moment, but what better way to keep the fires burning than to race locally again. Good to see Ricky running at Dead Horse Creek Speedway. It's reminiscent of the good old days when he would literally strap into any car class and drive it to the front of the pack at Red River Co-op Speedway.
In 2025 they're running B-Mains in the WISSOTA Midwest Mod division. How times have changed.
If you follow Dead Horse Creek Speedway on social media. you'll have seen some of their little vignettes. I love the way Chris Unrau is presenting the speedway and himself to the public. He's as genuine as they come. We need more of this in our sport.
