Heavy morning rains have once again forced the Lee County Speedway to have to cancel the races scheduled for Friday, April 29th. We will try again next Friday, May 6th.

Speaking of next Friday, May 6th, it will kick off the 2022 Iowa Corn Growers Association, IMCA Late Model Drive For 5, presented by Floyd’s Waste Systems, J.J. Nichting Case IH Company, Ideal Ready Mix, Triple 777 Trucking, Woodworth Attorney at Law, KQ92, and Big Country 103.1.

Plus the B&B Propane IMCA Modified Drive For 5, presented by Kohlmorgan Hauling, Golden Eagle Distributing – Budweiser dealer, Mike Campbell’s Body Shop & Towing, Donnellson Tire & Service, Hinkle Auto Sales, and J&J AG Auto & Truck.

It will also be the debut of Discount Tire & Service IMCA Northern SportMod Drive For 3, presented by TONUP Inc., Xpert Automotive & Sales, and Conrad Trucking.

Both the IMCA Late Models and IMCA Modifieds will be racing for $1,000 to win, while the IMCA Northern SportMods are gunning for $600 to win. Also in action will be the Donnellson Tire & Service IMCA Stocks Cars and AVIS Car Rental IMCA Sport Compacts.

Unfortunately mother nature is going to win both Friday and Saturday night’s of racing. We have received over an inch of rain on Wednesday and another inch overnight, leaving the grounds very saturated. There is standing water everywhere, and we just don’t want haulers to get stuck in the pits. Plus we don’t want to have a rough racing surface, that we will have to fight for weeks to come.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed that mother nature will straighten out and we can go racing next Friday, April 29th. As we kick off the 2022 season points, featuring the Iowa Corn Growers Association IMCA Late Models, Sonny’s Super Market IMCA Modifieds, Donnellson Tire & Service IMCA Stock Cars, Roberts Tire Center IMCA SportMods, Avis Car Rental IMCA Sport Compacts, and Mini Hauler Trucks.
