Ian Madsen and TKS find bad luck in 34 Raceway’s IRA opener; High Limit and Knoxville on deck

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

MITCHELLVILLE, Iowa (April 10, 2023) - Although their first weekend of competition was ultimately cut short, forced to retire a day early due to extensive frame damage as the result of incidental contact, Ian Madsen and TKS Motorsports were well on their way to a top-tier finish against the IRA Outlaw Sprint Series at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa, but as hinted, bad luck stepped in and intervened.

Madsen, who kicked-off his Friday evening at the eastern Iowa oval with a runner-up finish during his respective heat race, followed by a third-place finish in the first of two dashes, was in the hunt for a top-five outcome when the aforementioned incident occurred, getting together with another competitor through the middle of turns three and four. The Australia native did race on, but was unable to recover, as he was scored 22nd. Further review would unveil frame damage forcing the team to cap their weekend ahead of schedule.

“We’ll shake this off and move forward. We were showing a lot of speed up until that point,” Troy Renfro, owner of the Albaugh - Your Alternative, Iowa Barnstormers, Des Moines Industrial Products, deWit Construction, Jersey Freeze Ice Cream, Freedom Concrete Pumping, Speck USA, Finer Cuts Lawn Care, No. 2KS sprint car, said. “Hats off to this entire team. We were able to make the necessary repairs and we’re ready to go for tomorrow night’s High Limit event at Lakeside Speedway. We know our potential and I think we’re all excited to battle for $50,000.”

ON DECK:
TKS Motorsports and Ian Madsen will continue their 2023 campaign with a High Limit Sprint Car Series visit to Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, on Tuesday, April 11, followed by Knoxville Raceway’s season opener on Saturday, April 15. The High Limit Sprint Car Series stop will award a $50,000 top prize.
