(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 12, 2024 - It was night Travis Arenz and the members of the Travis Arenz Motorsports team would like to toss into File 13, as mechanical maladies brought their participation in a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series event to a premature end Sunday, June 9 at Angell Park Speedway in Angell Park, Wis.
Arenz opened the annual Norm Nelson Classic on a high note by qualifying fifth in the 30-car field with a lap of 12.598 seconds. The 2021 and 2022 Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion then rolled off third in the second eight-lap IRA heat race.
Arenz struggled throughout the race as Jordan Goldesberry, Joel Meyers Jr. and Jake Neuman moved past the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver. However, Arenz still managed to hold on to finish sixth and earn a spot in both the IRA dash and A-main lineups.
Arenz's 25T machine did not return to the track for the remainder of the racing program as a motor issue forced the team to scratch from the dash and A-main.
"Near the end of the heat race, the motor dropped a valve and hurt the motor," Arenz said. "Unfortunately, our other two motors are not finished yet. We are not sure about our status for the rest of the season as of now.
"The good news is I got my MSD box back from the IRA, after it got sent out to be checked for traction control," he said. "Everything was legal."
The Travis Arenz Motorsports team was scheduled to compete in the fourth annual Road America Challenge IRA event at The Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday, June 8. However, the event fell victim to rain.
Due to the team's current motor issues, the upcoming schedule for the Travis Arenz Motorsports team is undetermined.
