The Harris Clash is an annual stock car race held in late July at the Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa. It is widely regarded as being one of the best IMCA modified races in the country, drawing hundreds of cars and thousands of fans every year. This year it was held on July 20th, with the winner of the Modified division being Jermey Hedrick, and Jacob Murray taking the checkers in the SportMod division.

The Harris Clash was started in 1992 by the Harris Auto Racing Company as a challenge to other racing chassis manufacturers. Not only is the winning driver of the race given lots of recognition, but unlike other major events, the car maker is also featured. Harris chasses have won 8 out of the 14 races held to date. The race features two classes, IMCA Modifieds, and IMCA SportMods (which is an entry-level modified division).
