Close the Books: Supernationals are Over

Originally posted on September 9, 2007.


Last night the final races were run, closing the books on the 25th Anniversary IMCA SuperNationals.  770 cars in six different classes signed in and raced over the past week.  Approximately 383 races were run, including heats, last chance races and features.  Twenty-five different states were represented by teams and fans.


One interesting sid note was that Randy LaJoie was there to work with the competitors on their safety equipment.  LaJoie owns/runs a company that sells seats, but he also is concerned about the local racer who has a low budget and is racing every week.  He was on hand during the week to look at safety equipment that the IMCA officials had questions about, and to help racers be safe.


The SuperNational winners and their class are:  Boone McLaughlin, Late Models; Curt Lund, Sprint Cars; Andy Boeckman  Hobby Stock; Kevin Opheim, Stock Cars; Tracy Wassenberg, Northern Sports Mods; Todd Shute, Modifieds.


Mark your calendars now for the first week in September and the 26th Annual IMCA SuperNationals.
