WHEATLAND, Mo.—A lively crowd and a superior field of cars invaded Lucas Oil Speedway for TA/Petro Fan Appreciation Night presented by Ozarks Sports Zone on Saturday, Aug. 22. Logan Martin out of West Plains took top honors in the USRA Modifieds while Lebanon's Kris Jackson took the top spot in the USRA B-Mods.

First class to take the track were the USRA Modifieds led by racing veterans Terry Schultz and Jeff Cutshaw which set high standards for the rest of the field. Martin, however, wasted no time in charging past Schultz for the number one spot. Martin stayed up front with a comfortable lead and held off Schultz for the remainder of the race to take home the victory.

Schultz and Cutshaw didn't go very far back as they finished respectively in second and third. Jason Russell remained unchanged as he started fourth and finished there. Tyler Wolff of Fayetteville, Ark., rounded out the top-5 from tenth.

Kris Jackson is a household name around the Lucas Oil Speedway and once again he showed his dominance in the USRA B-Mod main event. He and Logan Martin showcased a hard fought battle for first before Martin spun and was sent to the tail.

Jackson remained in command for the rest of the race and secured the top spot. The top-5 was full of hard charges and amazing runs by some extremely experienced drivers. Shawn Strong was on a mission as he raced his way through the field from 18th to finish second. Mike Striegel, "The Wheatland Outlaw", was right with Strong the entire race as he started 17th and finished third. Eddie Schwope Jr. started fifth and ended in third while sixteen-year-old Andy Bryant flew through the field out of 19th to round out the top-5.


Eventual winner Kris Jackson (65) battles for the lead with Logan Martin (36) during the USRA B-Mod feature on Saturday, Aug. 22, at the Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Mo.
