Mother Nature brought out the sun on Memorial Day, Monday May 30 and Quincy Raceways was able to get the Ideal Ready Mix Sprint Invaders special event in. Six classes, including the Sprint Invaders took to the track and put on quite a night of racing.

The Sprint Invaders twenty five lap main event took to the track with twenty three cars lined up to do battle in their first event to not be washed out this season. Been Waggoner jumped into the lead at the drop of the green flag and looked good to lead the first eleven circuits but a lap ten caution flag brought Mark Shinshekan onto his bumper. Shinshekan got past to take the lead on lap twelve his time at the lead spot was for only two laps as Jimmy Moughan blasted into the lead after a caution on lap thirteen. Moughan then survived at the front of the field fighting off the challenges of Kaley Gharst over the final laps to take his first Sprint Invader feature win of the season. Gharst settled for second followed by Justin Parrish in third, Shinshekan in fourth and Donnie Steward in fifth. The heat race wins went to Ryan Beechler, Brett Triplett and Shinshekan with grabbing the win in the dash.

Lonnie Bailey took the lead from his pole starting spot in the Budweiser IMCA Late Model main event and pulled to a comfortable margin until a caution flag brought the field together for a lap three restart. Denny Woodworth had pulled into third for that restart and set his sights on Bailey after clearing Robby Warner on the next lap. Woodworth and Bailey battled heavily for the lead for the next eight laps with Woodworth finally taking over the top spot on lap twelve. Woodworth pulled to a one second lead over the next several laps but Bailey started to cut back into his lead during the final five laps to close the gap to a half second at the checkered flag on lap thirty. Bailey settled for second followed by Joey Gower in third, Jake Griffin in fourth and Robbie Warner in fifth. Gower and Bailey were the heat race winners.

Shawn Deering and Steven DeLonjay put on quite a show in the twenty five lap Miller Lite UMP Modified main event as Deering held the lead for the first fifteen circuits with DeLonjay fighting his way side by side with Deering for several laps until getting past for the lead on the sixteenth lap. DeLonjay held off Deering through several caution periods over the remaining laps to claim his first win of the 2011 season. Deering settled for second followed by Dave Wietholder in third, Ryan Meyer in fourth and Jared Schlipman in fifth. Delonjay, Michael Long and Vance Wilson were the heat race winners.

Kevin Tomlinson scored the feature event win in the Triple R Performance Engines IMCA Stock Cars after a terrific race. Abe Huls settled for second followed by Jerry Jansen in third, Beau Taylor in fourth and Terry Houston in fifth. Aaron Brocksieck and Houston were the heat race winners.

Bobby Anders continued his dominance of the KRNQ Pepsi Inside Track Hobby Stock division as he picked up his fourth consecutive main event win. Brandon Symmonds scored the second spot with Steve Carlin in third, Jake Powers in fourth and Tanner Klingele in fifth. Symmonds and Anders claimed the heat race wins.

William Michel took the win in the Summy Tire and Auto Center Wild Thing main event followed by Craig Bangert in second, Seith Woodruff in third, Brandon Bangert in fourth and Austin Uppinghouse in fifth. Michel and Chuck Fullenkamp took the heat race wins.
