Plymouth Dirt Track Dirt Track News
- Pokorski posts PDTR 360 top 10 No. 4
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) July 1, 2025 - Alex Pokorski kept his string of strong performances in Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car competition right on track by racking up another top-10 A-main showing behind the wheel of the No. 4 Akright Auto car at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, June 28. Pokorski opened the evening with a bang by nailing down his fast qualifier award of the 2025 season with a top lap of 12.678 seconds. From there, the West Bend, Wis. native put together an impressive run to second after starting fourth in the third eight-lap PDTR 360 Sprint Car heat race. The A-main provided some challenging and unlucky situations. After lining up fifth, the fifth-year Sprint Car competitor got shuffled back at the start and could never fully recover. Despite a valiant effort to move up to the front of the pack along the outside and later the inside groove of the third-mile semi-banked clay oval, Pokorski fell back four positions to post a ninth-place finish. Following three consecutive podium finishes in his first three PDTR 360 Sprint Car starts, Pokorski racked up his fourth top-10 A-main showing of the 2025 campaign. "The night started well, setting quick time," Pokorski said. "I was actually a bit tight and felt we could've been even faster. We continued well into the heat race and got into the invert. Unfortunately, we started in the non-preferred groove on the top-dominant track. We were decently fast, just lost a few spots on both starts. Things got congested later and I couldn't make the moves I wanted to." After taking the Fourth of July weekend off, Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team is planning to make its fifth appearance of the 2025 campaign with the Akright Auto 360 Sprint Cars at The Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday, July 12 for Plymouth Racing Wall of Fame Night. Spectator gates open at 4:30 p.m. with qualifying at 5:30 p.m. and racing at 6 p.m. Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team 2025 sponsorship partners are Akright Auto, Mulch Express of Wisconsin, GR8, Lynch Buick, GMC of West Bend, Petersen Septic Systems, Professional Plating, Wisconsin Bank and Trust, Goeden Auto Body, Ace Hardware of Kiel and Sheboygan Falls, Novak's Service Center, Cedar Valley Hunt Club, Germaine/Paul Kaphingst & Susie and Pedal Down Promotions.

- Fast start falls short for Arenz at Road Challenge, IRA road trip on tap
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 25, 2025 - Still riding the wave of his remarkable upset victory in a High Limit Racing national tour series event at 141 Speedway on June 5, it was a matter of so close, yet so far away in the Road America Challenge Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car event at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, June 21. The 18th-year racer enjoyed a great start to the night by qualifying a stout fourth in the 25-car field with a lap of 12.050 seconds around the third-mile semi-banked red clay oval. After finishing second in the first eight-lap IRA heat race, Arenz advanced to his seventh IRA dash appearance in eight tries in 2025. After making a huge outside move on the opening lap of the first four-lap dash, Arenz advanced from fifth to second to earn the fourth starting position in the 30-lap Road America Challenge main event. The 2021 and 2022 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car champion got off to a strong start in A-main action before engaging in a battle for second with Jake Neuman. After moving past Neumann on Lap 17, the 2013 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing Outlaw Compact four-cylinder track champion tracked down leader Kelby Watt heading into the closing stages of the race. Arenz surged ahead to lead lap 24 before Watt battled back along the outside groove. On lap 25, Watt attempted to squeeze past Arenz next to the backstretch wall. However, the two drivers made contact before Watt cut down the track in turn three to seize the lead. Meanwhile, Arenz slowed to a stop on the following lap with a flat right rear tire resulting from the collision with Watt. After making a tire change in the work area, Arenz returned at the rear of the lead lap before moving up to secure a 15th-place showing at the finish line. "I was very happy to be able to put down a good lap in qualifying," Arenz said. "The heat race went well and I moved forward in the dash. Unfortunately, come feature time, there was a racing incident that caused a caution and cut down my right rear tire after taking over the lead position. We were able to get it changed and with five laps to go, and I was able to drive from the back of the field to get a few spots back." The team is preparing to head out on the road with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association Sprint Car Series this Friday, June 27 at Bloomington Speedway in Bloomington, Ind. and Saturday, June 28 at Butler Speedway in Quincy, Mich. At Bloomington Speedway on Friday night, IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Cars and Super Stocks are also on the card. Pit gates open at 4 p.m. with spectator gates opening at 5 p.m., hot laps at 6:30 p.m. and racing at 7:30 p.m. on the quarter-mile high-banked red clay oval. On Saturday night at three-eighths high-banked Butler Motor Speedway dirt oval, UMP Modifieds and Four Cylinders will also be featured with pit gates opening at 3 p.m., followed by spectator gates at 4 p.m., hot laps at 6 p.m. and racing at 7:30 p.m. The races will mark Arenz's first career appearance at both tracks.

We will do what we do every night - watch the track, watch other drivers on the track, make smart choices and be smooth and consistent."

- Hartmann shifts focus, eyes Cedar Lake Outlaws doubleheader
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 25, 2025 - A night that started with promise ended prematurely with more motor woes for Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team at the Road America Challenge Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series event at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, June 21. The fifth-year Sprint Car competitor fired off the evening with a solid seventh-place effort in the 25-car qualifying field with a lap of 12.158 seconds. Following a fourth-place finish in the first eight-lap IRA heat race, Hartmann earned his third IRA dash appearance of the 2025 campaign. After rolling off third in the first dash, Hartmann placed fifth to earn the 10th starting spot in the 30-lap IRA headliner. However, Hartmann's A-main run proved to be short lived as he dropped out of the race on lap 3 with motor issues. He received credit for a 25th-place finish. In a season-plagued by engine problems, Hartmann will veer off the IRA tour this weekend in favor of a different destination. "It's just been one of those years with all of the motor problems," Hartmann said. "We have a fresh bullet going in for the doubleheader coming up this weekend with the Outlaws at Cedar Lake." The team is now set to head to Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wis. for a two-night stand with the NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series on Friday, June 27 and Saturday, June 28. Hot laps start at 6:30 with qualifying and racing to follow.

- Paul Pokorski makes best of Plymouth IRA test
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 24, 2025 - Competing with the team's 360 Sprint Car against a field of 410 Sprint Cars with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association, Paul Pokorski turned in a solid effort in a guest driving role during the Road America Challenge at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wi. on Saturday, June 21. With his son, Alex, attending a wedding, Paul filled in behind the wheel of the No. 4 Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team 360 Sprint Car in IRA competition to mark his 33rd consecutive season in the driver's seat of an open-wheel race car. Paul opened the night by qualifying 24th in the 25-car field with a lap of 13.629 seconds around the 75-year-old semi-banked third-mile clay oval. The West Bend, Wis. competitor finished eighth in the third eight-lap IRA heat race to earn the 24th starting spot in the evening's 30-lap main event. The 2014 Midwest Sprint Car Association Masters Series champion drove a steady race and endured a pair of caution flags and one red flag period to advance five positions on the way to a 19th-place showing in the team's eighth IRA event of the 2025 campaign. "The goal for the night was to support the IRA, and have some fun," Pokorski said. "I'd say we did that. The night went better than expected. The bonus was I got to get a feel for the car and what it feels like when it's set up the way Alex likes to run it. I'd have to say it felt pretty good, but there are a few minor details that we will work on that I didn't like. We will go over it in the shop this week. We're looking forward to having Alex back next week at PDTR with the MSA." The Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team is set to compete with the Akright Auto 360 Sprint Cars at The Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday, June 28. Team sponsor Pedal Down Promotions will serve as the presenting trophy sponsor for the evening.

- Pokorski pushes to season-best Plymouth 360 runner-up
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 17, 2025 - For the third straight week, Alex Pokorski seized a place on the podium in Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car competition, only this time it was one step higher as he steered his No. 4 Akright Auto Racing Team machine to a second-place finish on Saturday, June 14 at The Plymouth Dirt Track. The fifth-year Sprint Car driver opened the evening by registering the 10th fastest qualifying lap in the 26-car field in 13.484 seconds. He then advanced one spot in the first PDTR 360 Sprint Car heat race by placing third from the fourth starting position to earn a berth in the evening's 22-car main event. After lining up 10th for the 25-lap A main, Pokorski got a huge run on the drop of the green flag to advance up to fifth on lap 3. Without a caution flag, the West Bend native made up ground in a hurry along the hooked-up high groove, moving past Lance Fassbender to take third on lap 15. Four laps later, Pokorski swung around Tyler Davis to assume second in the running order behind Scotty Neitzel's lead car. After the lone caution flag of the race appeared on lap 19, the 2023 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing Most Improved Driver Award winner lined up directly behind Neitzel with a clear shot at a possible win. However, Neitzel proved too strong along the thick cushion as he pulled away from Pokorski over the final six laps on the way to victory. Pokorski came home with a 2025 season-best runner-up showing following a pair of recent third-place finishes in PDTR 360 Sprint Car action. "The track had some character," Pokorski said. "It had a big cushion, and it got slick in the middle. It made for good racing. I enjoy that type of surface. I'm happy to have gone 10th to second. I just wish we would have gotten up one more spot at the end!" Pokorski will return to Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series action with a doubleheader weekend of competition, which kicks off at Outagamie Speedway in Seymour, Wis. on Friday, June 20. Spectator gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing starting at 6:30 p.m. The following night the team will compete in the IRA's annual Road America Challenge event at The Plymouth Dirt Track.

- Arenz etches name among Sprint Car elite with stunning High Limit victory
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 11, 2025 - No matter how many victories he might secure or championship trophies he may lift during the remainder of his racing career, June 5, 2025, will most certainly be a date neither Travis Arenz nor a legion of Sprint Car fans near and far will ever forget. Following a strong start to the 2025 Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series, Arenz checked into 141 Speedway hoping to gain experience against top-level competition in his first career entry in a Kubota High Limit Racing event for the series' debut at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis. on Thursday, June 5. The 18th-year competitor left the 141 Speedway facility as the shocking winner of the $26,000 Rayce Rudeen Foundation top prize with High Limit Racing, which boasts a strong contingent of the best 410 Winged Sprint Car racers in the world. Arenz's remarkable evening opened by drawing the No. 1 pill for qualifying, which turned out to be very advantageous for the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver. As the track began to dry out significantly during the qualifying session, Arenz's early lap of 11.209 put him second in the final qualifying order among the 29-car field. After placing fourth in the second High Limit heat race, Arenz advanced to the dash, which set the first three rows of starters for the 35-lap main event. Arenz placed fifth in the dash to roll off fifth in the first High Limit Racing A main to ever be contested at 141 Speedway. The 2021 and 2022 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car champion bided his time in the opening laps of the A main sticking primarily to the bottom groove of the third-mile semi-banked egg-shaped clay oval bullring. On lap 12, Arenz snuck underneath Justin Peck to claim second. Following the third caution flag of the race on lap 15, Arenz dove low to power past leader Bill Balog and grab the top spot. From there, Arenz successfully endured four more caution flags and pulled out to a half-lap lead over the second-place car of Tanner Thorson on the way to his first career High Limit Racing main event victory in his first-ever attempt. The win also marked Arenz's third career 410 Sprint Car victory and his 73rd overall A-main triumph spanning 4-cylinders, Sport Mods, 360 Sprint Cars and 410 Sprint Cars. "It was a ride of emotions at 141," Arenz said. "It was a night that made history and one we will never forget. The night started great with the pill draw going in our favor. I would have been ecstatic with a top-10 finish. Who would have thought we would go out and win? I like to take advantage of competing with other series when I can to gain more experience and challenge my knowledge and driving skills. How are you going to get better if you don't challenge yourself? "This is the biggest accomplishment to date in my racing career," he said. "It's been talked about lately how the drivers on national series drive race cars for a living. Most have a set-up guy and paid crew members. My crew and I work full-time jobs. I work 50-plus hours a week, do maintenance on the cars and equipment and then go race. I also make set-up decisions and read track conditions. So, to be able to be competitive with these top teams is very rewarding. It's an honor to earn such a big win for my sponsors, crew and myself." After soaring to the highest of highs in the sport of Winged Sprint Car racing, Arenz endured some challenges during a pair of NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Series events on Friday, June 6 at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. and Beaver Dam Raceway in Beaver Dam, Wis. on Saturday, June 7. Arenz qualified 30th overall and 15th in qualifying group B in the 39-car field with a time of 12.112 seconds at The Plymouth Dirt Track. He then placed seventh in heat race three to miss out on an A-main transfer spot by two positions. Arenz placed sixth in the 12-lap Last Chance Showdown to fall short of qualifying for the A main by a pair of spots. On Saturday, June 7, the Travis Arenz Motorsports 25T team headed southwest to the Beaver Dam Raceway where Arenz turned in the 34th fastest qualifying lap in the 36-car field in 12.139 seconds. He placed ninth in the second heat race and started 14th in the 12-lap Last Chance Showdown. After moving up to ninth on lap 6, Arenz got high in turn two and collided with the wall, which ended his night with a 14th-place showing. "At Plymouth at Beaver Dam, our drawing skills for qualifying were terrible," Arenz said. "I qualified almost last both nights and with the heavy competition, we didn't move forward as much as we needed to. There were some set-up choices I should have made differently and, unfortunately, we didn't make the features on Friday or Saturday. On Saturday, unfortunately, the wall in turn two ended our night early in the B main. I would have been interested to see what would have happened if I had been able to finish the B. In 6 laps I drove from 14th to 9th and the top four transferred to the A main. All in all, I learned so much during the weekend." Arenz will return to Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association competition on Friday, June 13 at Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Illinois and Saturday, June 14 at Federated Auto Parts I-55 Raceway Park in Pevely, Missouri.

- Hartmann caps week with Sprint Car's best, IRA doubleheader next
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 11, 2025 - It was a week unlike any other for Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing team featuring four consecutive nights of competition with the top two Winged Sprint Car racing touring series in the nation starting Wednesday, June 4 and running through Saturday, June 7. The grueling week of competition against the nation's best drivers and teams kicked off with a Kubota High Limit Racing event on Wednesday, June 4 at Red Cedar Speedway in Menomonie, Wis. In his first appearance at the three-eighths-mile semi-banked clay oval, Hartmann opened the night by qualifying 20th in the 27-car field with a lap of 13.362 seconds. After finishing eighth in the second heat race, advanced to the 30-lap A main with a fourth-place showing in the 12-lap B main. Hartmann started 22nd and was running 21st when he retired from the race on lap 14 and wound up with a 22nd-place finish. From there, Hartmann headed back to more familiar surroundings for the $26,000-to-win Kubota High Limit Racing Rayce Rudeen Foundation event at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis. on Thursday, June 5. The Plymouth, Wis. competitor qualified 16th in the 29-car field with a lap of 11.713 seconds before placing seventh in the first High Limit heat race to miss A-main transfer spot by one position. Hartmann lined up on the pole for the 12-lap B main with multi-discipline racing superstar Kyle Larson lining up on the outside of the front row. Hartmann exchanged slide jobs with Larson in the opening laps before falling back to end his night with a ninth-place finish.

On Friday, June 6, Pokorski racked up his second consecutive podium showing behind the wheel of his Akright Auto-backed No. 4 machine in Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car action at The Plymouth Dirt Track.

After placing fourth in the third PDTR 360 Sprint Car heat race, the fifth-year Sprint Car racer earned the 10th starting spot in the 25-lap main event. The first 22 laps of the event included fourth caution flags, which left Pokorski fifth in the running order for the final restart of the race. The West Bend native used a strong restart to vault past Brandon Berth and Tristan Furseth along the high groove of the well-manicured racing surface. Pokorski maintained the third spot in the final circuits to secure his second straight third-place run in PDTR 360 Sprint Car competition.

- Abreu Survives Chaotic Clash with Kofoid for Plymouth Victory
The stands were packed. The pits were packed. The atmosphere was off the charts for Friday’s World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series return to Plymouth Dirt Track after 20 years away. And ...
- Pokorski nets podium showing in PDTR 360 Sprint Car appearance
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) June 3, 2025 - After competing in seven consecutive Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series events to start the 2025 season, the Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team returned to its roots to compete with the Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track and MMW Industrial Supply Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Cars for the first time this season at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, May 31. The Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team opened the program by qualifying ninth in the 28-car field with a lap of 12.957 around the venerable third-mile clay oval. The fifth-year Sprint Car competitor then placed second from the third starting spot in the eight-lap PDTR-MSA heat race two to advance to A-main competition. "It was a little bit of an odd feeling to drive into the corner for the first time during hot laps," Pokorski said. "The 360 drives different than the 410, but it quickly became comfortable again." Following the passing points dice roll invert, the West Bend, Wis. native rolled off on the outside of the third row in the 25-lap PDTR-MSA main event. Pokorski exhibited patience in the early going as he searched for a comfortable groove to run. Eventually, he hit his stride to work past Chris Larson, Brady Portschy and Clayton Rossmann to claim third in the running order on lap 14. As the leaders negotiated thick lapped traffic in the closing stages of the race, Pokorski began to reel in Karnitz, who was running second after starting third. While outside front-row starter Ben Schmidt cruised away from the field to build up a half-way cushion as the last wound down, Pokorski went on to claim a season-best third-place finish in his 2025 PDTR-MSA 360 Sprint Car debut. "We were fast in the feature," he said. "I wish we would have had a caution to get a chance to race against the top two." Pokorski is set to compete with the Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing-MMW Industrial Supply Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Cars again this Friday, June 6 at The Plymouth Dirt Track in support of the NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series, which will make its first appearance at The Plymouth Dirt Track since 2005. Pit gates open at 2 p.m. Spectator gates open at 4 p.m. with hot laps/qualifying at 6:30 p.m. and racing at 7:30 p.m. For those unable to attend, the event will be broadcast live on dirtvision.com.

- Arenz stays course to secure IRA top 10s
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 28, 2025 -Travis Arenz battled through a handful of challenges to pile up two more top-10 A-main showings during a doubleheader weekend of Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series action at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Saturday, May 24 and 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis. on Sunday, May 25. The 2021 and 2022 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car champ kicked off the Memorial Day Weekend twin bill by qualifying fifth in the 36-car field at Wilmot Raceway on May 24 with a lap of 12.409 seconds. After starting on the pole of the second IRA heat race, Arenz cruised to his second heat race victory of the 2025 season to earn a dash position. However, mechanical gremlins prompted Arenz to withdraw from the first dash. "Unfortunately, the engine's coolant temp spiked," Arenz said. "Without wanting to possibly cause more damage to the motor, we pulled the backup car down. I did well in qualifying and won my heat race. I was supposed to be in the dash, but decided it was smart to pull off and get the backup car ready before the feature." Despite encountering less-than-ideal track conditions for passing, Arenz remained undeterred as he blasted the cushion from the 23rd starting position to secure a solid eighth-place showing. One night later, Arenz qualified 12th in the 30-car field at 141 Speedway. After starting on the pole, the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver earned his second heat race victory of the weekend to set himself up for his fifth dash appearance of the 2025 season. After placing fourth in the first four-lap dash, Arenz rolled off from the seventh starting position for the 30-lap main event. Arenz held his own throughout the first half of the race before coming home seventh on a rubber-down one-lane racing surface. "We got up early Sunday morning and swapped motors into my main car and did maintenance before heading to 141," Arenz said. "The track conditions at 141 weren't the most favorable. I started seventh in the feature and finished in the same spot. There wasn't much passing during any race throughout the night due to track conditions, but we gave it our all." The IRA is off over the next two weeks. In the meantime, Arenz plans to enter the High Limit Racing Series event at 141 Speedway on Tuesday, June 5. Check the Travis Arenz Motorsports Facebook and X (Twitter) pages for schedule announcements regarding the team's potential entry in additional events during the World of Outlaws Series swing through Wisconsin June 5-7.

Hartmann kicked off the Memorial Day Weekend doubleheader by timing in eighth in the 36-car field with a time of 12.558 seconds at Wilmot Raceway.

The 2020 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association Rookie of the Year Award winner ran inside the top 10 throughout the main event en route to a solid 10th-place showing. One night later, the 87A Hartmann Racing Team moved on to the 141 Speedway on Sunday, May 25 where Hartmann earned his second-career IRA fast qualifier award by topping the 30-car field with a quick lap of 12.231 seconds. Following a fourth-place showing in the first IRA heat race, Hartmann finished third in the first four-lap IRA dash to secure the fifth starting spot in the 30-lap main event. Despite challenging track conditions including a single-file, rubber-down surface in the closing stages of the race, Hartmann held strong inside the top 10 throughout the 30-lap headliner on the way to a season-best ninth-place finish for the 87A Hartmann Racing Team's second top-10 showing of the 2025 campaign. "Man, it felt good to put together a solid weekend of racing," Hartmann said. "This car belongs to be running up front, and we proved that during the weekend. My team is relentless.

- Pokorski caps month with IRA, eyes PDTR 360 debut
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 27, 2025 - The Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team wrapped up the opening month of the 2025 Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series season with a doubleheader weekend of competition at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. and 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis. on Saturday, May 24 and Sunday, May 25. The fifth-year Sprint Car competition kicked off the Memorial Day Weekend twin bill by qualifying ninth in the 36-car field with a lap of 12.569 seconds on Founders Night at Wilmot Raceway on Saturday, May 24. A sixth-place finish in the third IRA heat race gave Pokorski the second starting spot in the 12-lap B main. The West Bend, Wis. native then turned in a second-place B-main showing to earn a spot in the 30-lap main event. After launching from the 22nd starting position, Pokorski drove a smooth and steady race on a challenging track surface to come home with a 20th place A-main finish. One night later, the team traveled north where Alex made his first career appearance at the high-banked egg-shaped third-mile 141 Speedway clay oval. After going out 29th in the 30-car qualifying field on a rapidly drying track surface, Pokorski turned in the 28th fastest qualifying lap with a time of 14.022 seconds.

- Arenz storms to Plymouth IRA triumph No. 2
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 21, 2025 - Twenty-two months after recording his first career Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series victory at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis., Travis Arenz found his way back to victory lane at his home track on Saturday, May 17. The 18th-year racer opened the IRA's first appearance of the 2025 season at The Plymouth Track by qualifying third in the 32-car field with a lap of 11.367 seconds. The 2021 and 2022 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car champ then advanced from fourth to second in the third IRA heat race to earn a berth in the first IRA dash. After drawing the pole for dash 1, Arenz outdueled 2010 Knoxville Nationals champion Tim Shaffer to claim his second dash victory of the season and earn the pole for the 30-lap Scott Semmelmann Memorial A main. Arenz used a strong start to seize the lead on the opening lap and was never seriously challenged throughout the main event, building up a sizable 2½ second lead over Scotty Thiel before a caution flag on lap 23. He again bolted away from Thiel on the restart en route to his second career IRA main event victory and first since July 1, 2023. It was also Arenz's 72nd overall career main event triumph and 38th career A-main victory at The Plymouth Dirt Track spanning four different divisions - Outlaw Compact 4-Cylinder, B Mod (Sport Mod), 360 Sprint Car and 410 Sprint Car. "In a perfect world, I would love for every night to go as it did at Plymouth," Arenz said. "The car felt really good each time I was on the track. I knew I still needed to be smooth and consistent through the feature, and I knew that with starting on the pole, the only option I wanted was a win. Before the last caution, we had a 2.5-second lead over the car in second, which told me I was doing my job well. It felt so good to get a win for my team, sponsors and myself." One night later, Arenz ventured to the Angell Park Speedway for the second half of an IRA weekend doubleheader. However, the results for the 25T Travis Arenz Motorsports Team car were decidedly different from the night before. After qualifying 13th in the 31-car field, Arenz finished sixth from the fifth starting spot in the first heat race to advance to the 30-lap headliner. After firing off from the 16th starting spot, Arenz's A main was over before it started as a multi-car melee along the backstretch on the opening lap left his car flipped on its side. Arenz retreated to the work area to try to repair the car. However, he was unable to return to the track before the race resumed and was credited with a 22nd-place finish. "Unfortunately, I didn't have quite enough help as I would have liked at Angell Park for the night to go as smoothly as it did at Plymouth," Arenz said. "It goes to show how quickly someone can go from winning a feature one night to wrecking the next. Luckily, it looks like I only damaged bolt-on components. We will go through the car and get it ready for this weekend at Wilmot and 141." The Travis Arenz Motorsports team will take part in a Memorial Day weekend of doubleheader IRA action starting with Founders Night at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Saturday, May 24 and concluding at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek. Wis. on Sunday, May 25. Spectator gates open at 4 p.m., hot laps/qualifying begin at 5:45 p.m., and racing starts at 6:45 p.m. Saturday, May 24, at Wilmot Raceway.

- Hartmann stays the course through motor woes
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 21, 2025 - For the second consecutive week, the Austin Hartmann-87A Hartmann Racing team had to stare down engine problems, which cut short a planned doubleheader weekend of Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series competition. Hartmann and the 87A Hartmann Racing Team returned to its home track - The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. - aiming to shake off the engine issues from the week before at Sycamore Speedway and jump-start an uneven beginning to the 2025 IRA campaign. However, the mechanical gremlins were evident right from the start of the night as Hartmann was unable to register a qualifying lap due to lingering motor issues. Following an engine swap, the Plymouth driver came home seventh after starting eighth in the 8-lap IRA heat race. Hartmann moved up three positions from the ninth starting spot in the B main. However, he finished two spots out of an A-main transfer position with a sixth-place showing. The persistent engine problems led the team to forgo the following night's IRA event at Angell Park Speedway to regroup and plan its next steps in securing a new powerplant. "It's going to be a busy week, but we will have a fresh Kistler racing engine in for this upcoming weekend and from here on out," Hartmann said. "Hopefully, the common valve train issues we have been having will stop now." The team is planning to be back in action with the IRA during a Memorial Day weekend of doubleheader IRA action starting with Founders Night at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Saturday, May 24 and concluding at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek. Wis. on Sunday, May 25. Spectator gates open at 4 p.m., hot laps/qualifying begin at 5:45 p.m., and racing starts at 6:45 p.m. on Saturday, May 24, at Wilmot Raceway.

- Pokorski pogos through eventful IRA double dip
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 20, 2025 - For drivers and teams up for tackling one of the toughest disciplines of dirt track racing, the first season of 410 Sprint Car competition is typically filled with a wide array of challenges, frustrations and roadblocks sprinkled with breakthroughs, discoveries and successes. Alex Pokorski and the Akright Auto Racing Team experienced all of that and more during a doubleheader weekend of Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association action at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, May 17 and Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wis. on Sunday, May 18. In his first appearance of the 2025 season at the team's home track - The Plymouth Dirt Track - Pokorski opened the night by qualifying 21st in the 32-car field with a lap of 11.875 around the venerable third-mile clay oval. He went on to place seventh after starting sixth in the first IRA heat race, which put him in the B main lineup. Needing to finish in the top four to earn a transfer to the 30-lap Scott Semmelmann Memorial A main, the 2024 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car division runner-up launched from the seventh starting spot in the B main. However, he fell one position short of transferring to the A-main by registering a fifth-place showing. "I think we could've transferred directly to the A main at Plymouth, if I hadn't let up on the first lap of the heat race for some radio interference that I thought was calling for a caution," Pokorski said. One night later, the team moved on to Angell Park Speedway, where Pokorski made his 410 Sprint Car debut with the IRA in May 2024. The West Bend, Wis. native timed 19th in the 31-car field with a lap of 12.252 seconds. He then placed seventh in the first IRA heat to move to the B main. After starting on the outside of the front row and outpowering polesitter Bill Rose at the start, Pokorski led all 12 laps of the B main on the way to his first race win in IRA competition. On the opening lap of the 30-lap A main, Pokorski was involved in a multi-car incident along the back stretch, which left his No. 4 Akright Auto machine with front wing damage and concluded the team's night with a 20th place showing. "Angell Park was fun until the A-main crash," Pokorski said. "I'm not sure what happened in front of me there, but we broke off the rear mounting point for the nose wing. That ended our night. I enjoyed winning the B main. It was neat to share the front row with a driver like Bill Rose, who I watched race with the World of Outlaws growing up." The team is set to return to competition with a Memorial Day weekend of doubleheader IRA action starting with Founders Night at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Saturday, May 24 and concluding at 141 Speedway in Francis Creek. Wis. on Sunday, May 25. Spectator gates open at 4 p.m., hot laps/qualifying begin at 5:45 p.m., and racing starts at 6:45 p.m. Saturday, May 24, at Wilmot Raceway.

- 87A Hartmann Racing preps for IRA trifecta
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 14, 2025 - With the first three events of the 2025 Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series planted in the rearview mirror, the 87A Hartmann Racing team is ready to pick up the pace with Austin Hartmann at the controls for a Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series tripleheader Friday, May 16 through Sunday, May 18. On Saturday, May 10, the team checked into Sycamore Speedway in Maple Park, Ill., for the third round of the 2025 IRA campaign. Hartmann began the night by qualifying 25th in the 32-car field with a lap of 15.131 seconds. From there, the fifth-year Sprint Car pilot started and finished seventh in the first 8-lap IRA heat race to miss out on an A-main transfer spot. Finding himself on the outside looking into the 24-car A-main field, the 2020 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association Rookie of the Year Award winner mounted a spirited attempt to qualify for the main event in the B main. The Plymouth, Wis. driver rolled off ninth in the 10-lap B main and advanced to within sight of a transfer spot as the laps wound down. Despite a highly determined effort, Hartmann ended up fifth when the checkered flag flew to place one spot short of securing an A-main berth. "There isn't much we can take away from Sycamore," Hartmann said. "We made a solid effort in the B main racing against darts with no fletchings. It's best to have a short-term memory in this sport. We'll see what we can do starting at Dodge County and heading through a busy three-race weekend." The team will compete in an IRA tripleheader weekend starting Friday, May 16, for the Harry Neitzel Tribute race at the Dodge County Fairgrounds in Beaver Dam, Wis. Pit gates open at 3 p.m., and spectator gates open at 5 p.m. On-track action begins at 6 p.m., and opening ceremonies are scheduled for 7:15 p.m. On Saturday, May 17, the team will head to its hometown track - The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. - with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Cars. Grandstand gates open at 4:30 p.m. with on-track action anticipated at 5:30 p.m. The tripleheader weekend concludes with IRA competition at Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wis., on Sunday, May 18. Pit gates open at 1:30 p.m. with spectator gates opening at 4 p.m. Hot laps begin at 5 p.m. with racing to follow. 87A Hartmann Racing 2025 sponsorship partners include Kristine Hartmann Pleasantview Realty, Shufflebotham Tree Service, The Dispensary, Metalcraft, Ludwig & Sons Trucking, Quasius Construction, Holler n' Hills, Rich's Truck & Auto Repair, Gibbsville Cheese, Hepfner Racing Products and Berryman Racing Shocks.

- Misfortune finds Arenz at Sycamore, IRA tripleheader awaits
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 14, 2025 - During his first two seasons of full-time Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series competition, Sycamore Speedway proved to be a natural fit for Travis Arenz with two runner-up showings behind the wheel of his Travis Arenz Motorsports Team 25T car. The third time wasn't quite the charm for Arenz at the Maple Park, Ill. three-eighths-mile semi-banked clay oval on Saturday, May 10, as an early mishap in the 30-lap A-main relegated the 18th year driver to a 16th place showing. Arenz qualified 11th in the 32-car field with a lap of 13.965 seconds. The 2021 and 2022 Akright Auto Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion started and finished third to earn a berth in the 30-lap main event. The Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver started the 30-lap main event from the 12th starting spot and was settling into the race when he misjudged a turn and was forced to retreat to the work area on lap 5. After restarting the race at the rear of the field, Arenz weaved through the pack to come home with a respectable 16th-place finish. "The first half of the night actually went decently with what we had to work with for a track," Arenz said. "I was bummed we couldn't make the dash to work on the car for the feature. I got a little too anxious and clipped the infield tire in turns one and two in the feature, and bent the drag link and tie rod. We were able to pass a decent amount of cars back after restarting in the tail. The results don't show that we actually had a very good, balanced car overall."

- Pokorski pushes through Sycamore bad luck, eyes IRA tripleheader
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 13, 2025 - In their first Sprint Car racing venture outside of the state of Wisconsin, Alex Pokorski and the members of the Akright Auto Racing Team overcame a mechanical issue to pull out a respectable showing in Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association competition at Sycamore Speedway in Maple Park, Ill. on Saturday, May 10. In the team's first-ever appearance at the three-eighths-mile semi-banked clay oval, Pokorski opened the night with an impressive ninth-place qualifying effort with the 32-car field with a lap of 13.776 seconds. Before the start of the first 8-lap IRA heat race, Pokorski suffered a part malfunction on his No. 4 Akright Auto machine, which put him behind the 8-ball for the rest of the evening. After stopping on the track and receiving repairs in the work area, the West Bend, Wis. native started the race at the rear of the field and finished eighth to miss out on an automatic berth into the A-main field. Pokorski lined up second in the 10-lap IRA B main and held on to place fourth to grab the final A-main transfer spot. He then started 24th in the 30-lap A main, moving up to 17th in the first 10 laps of the event. Pokorski fell back to 20th on lap 15 and held on over the final 15 laps of the race to record an 18th-place showing. "We had a bolt break that held the left side radius rod to the chassis as we were on the track, ready to line up for the heat race," Pokorski said. "That was disappointing because the track wasn't very receptive to good racing in the heats. It derailed our night a bit. But, I did have fun racing in the first half of the feature." The team is now focused on an IRA tripleheader starting Friday, May 16, for the Harry Neitzel Tribute race at the Dodge County Fairgrounds in Beaver Dam, Wis. Pit gates open at 3 p.m. , and spectator gates openat 5 p.m. On-track action begins at 6 p.m. , and opening ceremonies are scheduled for7:15 p.m. On Saturday, May 17, the team will head to The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis., with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Cars.

- Arenz tallies IRA top five at Wilmot Raceway
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 7, 2025 - Travis Arenz and the Travis Arenz Motorsports Team continued their hot start to the 2025 Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series campaign with a strong fifth-place showing in the Dick Colburn Classic on Saturday, May 3 at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. The 2021 and 2022 Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion bolted out the gate by qualifying second overall in IRA qualifying with a lap of 12.899 seconds. Arenz started fourth in the second IRA heat race before moving up a spot to record a third-place finish and punch a ticket into the 30-lap main event. His qualifying and heat race efforts brought Arenz his second consecutive IRA dash appearance, during which he started second and raced to victory in the second four-lap dash to earn the outside front row starting spot in the 30-lap Dick Colburn Classic main event. The A main proved to be a bit challenging for Arenz as he dropped to fourth after Paul Nienhiser snuck past on lap 11. Following the second of two caution flags, Arenz settled into fifth place, which is where he finished the race to record his second consecutive top-five A-main showing. "The night went decently," Arenz said. "We had speed, but not enough at the end to get the job done. I'm happy with the night. But I'm not satisfied." This Saturday, May 10, the Travis Arenz Motorsports Team will head back to Sycamore Speedway in Maple Park, Ill. with the IRA 410 Sprint Car Series. The Badger Midgets and IRA Lightning Sprints are also on the card. Arenz heads into an IRA event at Sycamore Speedway facility this Saturday, May 10 as the runner-up in the last two IRA events at the three-eighths mile semi-banked clay oval track facility in 2023 and 2024. "I enjoy Sycamore," Arenz said. "We've had two second-place finishes there in the last two years." It would be nice to leave that place on top instead of runner-up this year."

- 87A Hartmann Racing Team displays grit in Wilmot IRA action
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 7, 2025 - Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team persevered through a challenge-filled evening of Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car season competition to pull out a respectable showing in the Dick Colburn Classic at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Saturday, May 3. Hartmann opened the night on a good note by qualifying 12th overall in the large 37-car field with a lap of 13.185 seconds. However, mechanical issues struck the team just as Hartmann was set to push off for the first 8-lap IRA heat race. After changing an MSD box in the work area and pushing off for the race, Hartmann pulled back into the pits without turning a single lap of heat race action. After diagnosing a motor issue, the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team went about changing an engine for the B main. Stellar crew work allowed Hartmann to return to the track and start from the pole in the 12-lap B Main where he wound up second to advance to the Dick Colbun Classic main event. With a fresh motor under the hood, Hartmann rolled to a 19th-place finish in the 30-lap main event. "It was another night where we struggled," Hartmann said. "On a good note, we have the balance of the car right, so we are going in the right direction. On the downside, we hurt an engine before the heat race. But the team was able to get it changed in time to get us back out for the B main. It's been a rough start to the season. One of these races has to go our way soon." This Saturday, May 10, Austin Hartmann and the members of the 87A Hartmann Racing Team are scheduled to return to Sycamore Speedway in Maple Park, Ill. with the IRA 410 Sprint Car Series.

- Pokorski posts IRA best at Wilmot, Illinois trip awaits
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 6, 2025 - Alex Pokorski's knack for compiling smooth, consistent results was on full display in the second round of the 2025 Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series season as he steered his No. 4 Akright Auto Racing Team machine to an IRA career-best 13th place showing in the Dick Colburn Classic Saturday, May 3 at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. In his sixth career start in the seat of a 410 Sprint Car, the West Bend native qualified 15th overall in the stout 37-car field with a lap of 13.370 seconds around the three-eighths-mile semi-banked clay oval. The sixth-year Sprint Car campaigner was scheduled to start third in the third 8-lap IRA heat race. However, when the pole car was penalized for jumping the initial start, Pokorski moved up a row to lead the field to the green flag from the pole. He fell back to third on the opening lap and held the spot for the duration to earn a transfer spot into the 30-lap Dick Colburn Classic A main. After firing off from the 14th starting spot in the 24-car field, Pokorski used a strong start to move up to 11th when the first of two yellow flags was displayed on lap 4. On the restart, the 2023 Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing Most Improved 360 Sprint Car Driver Award winner surrendered a pair of positions to move into 13th place. Pokorski endured another caution flag on lap 20 to secure an IRA career-best 13th place A-main finish. "It was fun racing with the guys around 11th to 14th in the A main," Pokorski said. "The car felt stable and was better than when we were there last year with the 410." This Saturday, May 10, Alex Pokorski and the members of the Akright Auto Racing Team will venture south of the state border into Illinois for their debut appearance at Sycamore Speedway in Maple Park, Ill. with the IRA 410 Sprint Car Series. The Badger Midgets and IRA Lightning Sprints are also on the card. "This will be the first time I've raced out of the state of Wisconsin in a Sprint Car," Pokorski said.

- Arenz rockets to IRA runner-up at Beaver Dam Raceway
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) April 30, 2025 - Travis Arenz opened his 18th overall season of competition and third full-time campaign with the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series in stellar fashion by guiding his 25T Travis Arenz Motorsports team entry to an impressive second place showing in the Glenn Hepfner Memorial at Beaver Dam Raceway in Beaver Dam, Wis. on Saturday, April 26. The Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver turned in a strong seventh-place qualifying run in the 29-car field with a lap of 11.812 seconds on the high-banked third-mile clay oval. The 2021 and 2022 Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion turned an outside front row starting position in the first 8-lap IRA heat race into his first heat race victory of the 2025 campaign. Arenz then started on the pole in the second 4-lap IRA dash before coming home second to gain the fourth starting spot in the 30-lap headliner. A wide, slick, multi-groove racing surface proved to be right in Arenz's wheelhouse as he battled among the lead group of Jake Neuman, Blake Nimee and Scotty Thiel throughout the race. After dueling back and forth with Nimee and Thiel inside the top 10, Arenz finally seized control of the runner-up spot in the closing laps and held on to nail down a second place showing behind race winner Jake Neuman. "Overall, I'm pleased with how the night went," Arenz said. "I qualified decent, won my heat race and drew the pole for the dash. That's pretty much my ideal night. I was happy with how the track progressed throughout the night. It made for good multi-lane racing for the feature. I felt like the car was really good. I can definitely see the 25T being in victory lane this season. To do that, I think I need to be a little more aggressive in traffic than I was on Saturday night." Next up for the Travis Arenz Motorsports team is the IRA Dick Colburn Classic Open Wheel Spectacular at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis. on Saturday, May 3. Non-Wing Crate Sprint Cars, Winged Crate Sprint Cars and Lightning Sprints are also on the card. Pit gates open at 2 p.m., and spectator gates open at 4 p.m. Hot laps will begin at 5:45 p.m., and racing will begin at 6:45 p.m. In the event of rain, Sunday, May 4 is the listed rain date.

- Pokorski surges to solid showing in 2025 IRA opener
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) April 29, 2025 - In his first full season of 410 Sprint Car competition, Alex Pokorski crafted a smooth start to the 2025 season behind the wheel of the No. 4 Akright Auto machine at the Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series Glenn Hepfner Memorial at Beaver Dam Raceway in Beaver Dam, Wis. on Saturday, April 26. The West Bend native, who recorded a runner-up showing in the 2024 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car point standings, opened the night by timing in 21st in the 29-car field with a lap of 12.110 seconds around the high banked third-mile clay oval. After rolling off seventh in the third 8-lap IRA heat race, Pokorski advanced two spots to place fifth and claim a direct transfer spot into the 30-lap A main. The sixth-year Sprint Car competitor started 17th in the IRA headliner before dropping back to 20th in the early going. He then rallied in the second half of the race to advance six positions and nail down an IRA career-best 14th place A-main showing in just his fifth career 410 Sprint Car start. "It was fun to have the team back together and to be racing again," Pokorski said. "We put down a solid benchmark to try to improve upon. The team did well with getting the car set up and adjusting as the track changed throughout the night. "I'm still getting used to the 410 car, so I learned a few things," he said. "I could have done better in qualifying. When you qualify well, that makes the rest of the night easier. Hopefully, we can do that this week at Wilmot."
