A new points leader heads up the pack and racing action Friday night as the Lebanon Midway Speedway will roll off action while the battle for positions are tight.

With his win last Friday, Sam Petty of Niangua took over the top spot in the Out-PAce USRA B-Mods presented by S&S U-Pull-It Auto Parts over Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national points leader Kris Jackson by 49 points, while consistent rider Tyler Knudtson is only 16 behind Jackson and Brian Myers is trying to hold back rookie Rich Reynolds, Ricky Watkins and Donnie Jackson for the fourth spot.

Jackson and Petty both will be coming through the field towards the rear of the pack by being winners there last time out.This weekend will be a good tune-up with the S&S U-Pull It Parts Challenge for The USRA B Mods paying 777 to win next Friday night.

Gates open at 5 p.m., hot laps are slated for 7 and racing starts at 8 p.m. for some family fun and great racing. For more information visit the track's Facebook page and website at www.midwayspeedway,net.
