Karl Chevrolet returns as title sponsor
of IMCA’s Northern SportMod division


ANKENY, Iowa (Feb. 24) – Karl Chevrolet returns this season as title sponsor of IMCA’s fastest growing division.

The Ankeny, Iowa, auto dealership will provide a portion of the point fund to be paid to top 10 drivers in final national standings for the Northern SportMod class.

"Karl Chevrolet remains one of the premier Chevy dealers in America and your best choice for new and used cars and trucks,” noted IMCA Marketing Director Kevin Yoder. “However, their service department combined with their GM Performance Parts line and the crate engine program make them a big reason why so many IMCA racers are choosing to do business with Karl, both on and off the track."

The number of licensed drivers in the Northern SportMods surpassed the 250 mark in just the division’s fourth season. Twenty-one tracks in six states – Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wisconsin – have returned contracts thus far to sanction the class in 2009.

Karl Chevrolet will also give a crate motor to a Northern SportMod driver competing at the 2009 IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals.

Drivers are required to display two Karl Chev rolet decals on their race cars during the regular point season and at Su per Nationals; they must compete in at least half the weekly races at an IMCA sanctioned track to be eligi ble for the crate motor drawing at Boone.
