(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 20, 2026 – Travis Arenz and his Travis Arenz Motorsports Team maintained their early-season consistency with a third-straight top-10 A-main run in Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series competition at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis., on Saturday, May 16.

Arenz came out of the gate on blast by registering the second-fastest qualifying lap in the 32-car field in 11.471 seconds. The 19th-year competitor posted a third-place showing in the second heat race to earn his third straight IRA dash appearance of the 2026 campaign.

After placing fourth in the second IRA dash, the Sheboygan Falls, Wis. driver rolled off eighth for the 30-lap main event. Arenz advanced from ninth in the early stages of the race into seventh near the halfway point.

The two-time Midwest Sprint Car Association and Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car champion secured sixth on lap 25 before coming home seventh to register his third straight top-10 showing in 2026 IRA action.

“We were second quick in qualifying but didn’t have a good enough car to compete for a podium finish in the feature,” Arenz said. “We made the dash again, which is extremely helpful with getting extra laps with this new car, but I didn’t go far enough on setup to get it where it needed to be. Overall, I’m glad to make it through the night with no issues.”

Arenz is looking forward to entering a pair of IRA events during the upcoming Memorial Day weekend. On Saturday, May 23, the Travis Arenz Motorsports Team will head to Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis., for the annual Founders Night event. The action then moves to 141 Speedway in Francis Creek, Wis., on Sunday, May 24.

Spectator gates open at 4 p.m. with hot laps at 5:30 p.m. and racing at 6:45 p.m. at Wilmot Raceway. At 141 Speedway, spectator gates open at 3 p.m. with racing scheduled at 6 p.m.

All IRA events are streamed live on floracing.com.
