The best dirt track racers in the universe are elbows up and hammer down for the Mason City Motor Speedway in Mason City, Iowa, this Tuesday through Thursday, July 28-30, for Mod Mania featuring the Summit USMTS National Championship fueled by Casey’s.

The inaugural tripleheader at Iowa's newest Action Track will also see American Racer USRA Stock Cars, USRA B-Mods and Mensink Racing Products USRA Hobby Stocks competing all three nights for huge payouts and Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national points.

The list of drivers headed to Mod Mania have a combined 406 career USMTS main event victories.

Confirmed USMTS competitors coming to Mason City include Blake Arndt, Jason Asbe, Jacob Bleess, Cory Crapser, two-time USRA national champion and current Mason City Motor Speedway USRA Modified points leader Jason Cummins, current Grant Junghans USMTS Rookie of the Year points leader Tyler Davis, Mark Dotson, “Big Daddy” Joe Duvall, Brandon Givens, current USRA Modified national points leader Devon Havlik, “The A-Train” Al Hejna, Adam Hensel, four-time USMTS national champion Jason Hughes, Calvin Iverson, Darwyn Karau, Adam Kates, Brian Mahlstedt, 2019 Grant Junghans USMTS Rookie of the Year Hunter Marriott, Tanner Mullens, Jake O'Neil, Terry Phillips, Dereck Ramirez, Chase Rudolf, three-time and defending USMTS national champion and current Wrisco points leader Rodney Sanders, 2016 USRA national champion Lucas Schott, former NASCAR Cup Series superstar Ken Schrader, Casey Skyberg, Dustin Sorensen, Brooks Strength, Jake Timm, “The Z-Man” Zack VanderBeek, Alex Williamson, Tyler Wolff and Ronnie Yanacsek.

The USMTS has staged ten feature races at the Mason City Motor Speedway, nine of which occurred prior to the new 1/3-mile configuration. Dereck Ramirez won the first event held on the new Mason City “Action Track” on June 18.

The series made its debut here on June 24, 2009, when the venue was named I-35 Speedway. Three more shows took place under that moniker with Mike Steensma, Kelly Shryock and Jason Hughes winning those events.

USMTS and dirt modified legend Al Hejna took the reins in 2016 and the facility was renamed Mason City Motor Speedway. While still a big half-mile dirt oval, Rodney Sanders, Cade Dillard and Terry Phillips each picked up a win.

‘The Reaper’ Ryan Gustin remains the only two-time winner at the North Iowa Fairgrounds. He won twice on Aug. 13, 2017, when the feature was rained out two months earlier and postponed to that day’s show.
