I.M.C.A. Old Timers was formed to promote and preserve I.M.C.A. (International Motor Contest Association) history, including the preservation and excellent restoration of former I.M.C.A. race cars; to maintain records and documents of I.M.C.A. history; recognition of former drivers, owners, mechanics and others involved in I.M.C.A. history; and provide an opportunity for the social and technical interchange of members interested in auto racing history.
Thanks to all our wonderful volunteers that helped make our first Swap Meet, Vintage Sale and Car Show a huge success! We had over 40 different vendors and swappers and 50 show cars, race cars and hot rods for everyone to check out! As with any inaugural event, there are some things we'll need to tweak and adjust to make our next event even BETTER! We thank our partners and volunteers from Dakota City Heritage Village for collaborating with us to make this event happen. We were blessed with perfect weather and it was great to meet so many smiling faces at the front gate. Lots of values were found at the sale and lots of great food and treats were served at the Drug Store. It was a great day.

We need supporting members who are willing to work on various committees to help steer and have hands-on involvement in the club activities. We have a busy summer coming with several fun, exciting events planned. We need help with the spring Swap Meet, the race at Rice County Fairgrounds, racing at Cedar Lake Speedway, reviewing and updating our racing rulebook, working at the Dakota County Fairgrounds during fair time, and we also need IT help. We are looking for a webmaster to revise and grow our website. If you are a supporting member and are willing to work on any of these activity committees, please reach out to any board member. Thanks for considering helping and keeping your club growing!
President Rob Caho and activities director Chuck Doyle will be working on planning these events and making sure we have enough help. Looking forward to a fun summer! 🏁🇺🇲🏁
