Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMods new at Eagle this season 

EAGLE, Neb. (Jan. 6) – What promoter Roger Hadan described as an ”up and coming class” will join Saturday night programs at Eagle Raceway this season. 

Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMods become the fourth IMCA sanctioned division to run at the 1/3-mile clay oval, joining the Modifieds, Hobby Stocks and Sport Compacts. 

“I think our car count will be very good the first season,” Hadan said. “I’ve been getting a lot of calls from drivers and I think Eagle will be a Saturday stop for drivers racing Friday at Beatrice Speedway or Butler County Motorplex.” 

The tentative 2010 schedule at Eagle totes 20 national, state and local track point races for Northern SportMods. 

“This is a very economical class. Drivers can take a used chassis and a Hobby Stock motor and be competitive without spending Modified-type money,” said Hadan. “It’s a good class for them to learn in before they take the next step up.” 

Eagle is the longest tenured IMCA Modified track in Nebraska, having sanctioned the class since 1985. IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stocks joined weekly programs in 2006 and the Mach-1 Sport Compacts were added in 2007. 

Those three classes are on the card for the Ice Breaker special on April 10. The regular season starts the following week. 

Final IMCA point races will be Aug. 28.
