| 2021 All Iowa Points Four Cylinder Champion Cyle Hawkins |
As we head into the specials season Hawkins holds a twelve point advantage over Tyler Fiebelkorn as he looks for a repeat championship. Fiebelkorn is known to travel from his southwest Iowa base as he is also in the hunt for the IMCA title so perhaps we will see the top two face off at some events this Fall. Oliver Monson is in the third spot and still in contention, especially if he can run against car counts of ten or more as this is the only All Iowa Points division that changes the scale if car counts are less than ten.

No All Iowa Points race is tighter than what we have in the Late Models as the top six drivers are separated by just six points. Three-time champion Matt Ryan (2017, 2019, 2020) is on top of the list heading into the Labor Day weekend with Keokuk's Tommy Elston jumping up to the second spot just one point back. Elston, who ranks 12th on the Cumulative All Iowa Points list since 2000, is looking for his first AIP title as are Jacob Waterman and Andy Nezworski who rank third and fourth right now. This would be Justin Kay's fifth championship if he makes his way back to the top and Zach Zeitner would be only the second Late Model driver based west of I-35 to win an All Iowa Points championship if he can come from sixth to join the 1992 champion Joe Kosiski.

The top two drivers in the Modifieds went head-to-head three times last week as current points leader Austen Becerra ventured up to Davenport on Thursday night where Travis Denning is a regular, then Denning made the trip south to race at two of Becerra's regular haunts in Donnellson and at 34 Raceway west of Burlington. Fourteen points is the advantage right now as Becerra looks to add an All Iowa Points Modified title to the Four Cylinder state championship that he won in 2014, while Denning is looking for his first AIP honors.

The top eleven drivers on the Limited Modified list have all accumulated over 100 points already in 2022 and at the top is defending champion Logan Anderson who holds a ten point cushion over Colby Fett and an eleven point advantage over Jake Sachau. For Fett or Sachau it would be their first AIP title, but they will need to venture east in October and November to not only beat Anderson, but also the 2020 champion Brayton Carter and two-time champ Tony Olson (2015-16). Shane Paris is also in the hunt in fifth.

The Stock Car battle will be fun to watch play out as well with three-time All Iowa Points Modified champion Kelly Shryock (1989, 2017-18) currently leading the way. Last year's AIP Hobby Stock champion Kaden Reynolds is just two points back in second with Derek Green and Mitch Hovden also in the hunt. Dustin Vis who got out to a big early lead in the Stock Car standings has faded to fifth and even loaned out his #20V recently to Brayton Carter to drive at Donnellson.

The Hobby Stock title will likely go to one of the current top three ranked drivers with Mike Smith enjoying a three-point advantage over Randy Lamar as of right now. If Smith wins he would join his uncles Devin, Dustin and Donavon as an All Iowa Points Hobby Stock champion and for Lamar the title would be a nice prize after a long career of racing in support divisions around the Quad Cities. Don't count out the 2020 champion Dustin Gulbrandson who comes into September just 21 points off the lead.

In the three Sprint Car divisions if the driver that currently sits on top holds on to win, it would be the first AIP title for each of them and keep in mind that points paying Sprint Car races become few and far between over the next four weeks. In the 410's Austin McCarl holds a five point advantage over two-time champion Brian Brown (2018-19) and if Austin holds on to win he will join his father Terry who is listed an amazing twelve times on the All Iowa Points Wall of Fame. And that count might grow to thirteen championships if the elder McCarl can overcome the one point deficit that he sees to young Chase Randall in the 360's. The four remaining Sprint Invader events, with the first one coming this Saturday at 34 Raceway west of Burlington, will decide the AIP title for the 360's. And, in the 305 division, Lee Goos Jr. holds a one point lead over the 2020 champion Dusty Ballenger while the defending AIP champion Stu Snyder is seven markers back and tied for third with the 2018 champion Mike Houseman Jr.

You can always follow the All Iowa Points at our Positively Racing website and if you would like to learn more about how they are tabulated and why, click here. I have listed the top ten in each division here today not only to preserve the current standings, but also because the Webmistress is a couple of weeks behind with her updates. Yes, it will be warm over the next few weeks, but that can only last so long so visit our Special Events Calendar and make your plans to close out your 2022 season in style.
Thank you for visiting the Back Stretch!
