Wolff earns USRA Modified headliner at Lucas Oil Speedway


Tyler Wolff took the lead on lap 10 and went on to capture Saturday night's 25-lap USRA Modified feature at Lucas Oil Speedway, the headliner of NMI Night presented by Wild Animal Safari.

Wolff, of Fayetteville, Ark., prevailed on a chilly night in which all mothers were admitted free courtesy of NMI/VMG Marketing.

Wolf earned $1,000 for his first victory of the season in Wheatland, Mo. He started on the second row and was lurking behind polesitter Ryan Middaugh in the early going of Saturday's feature, along with Tanner Mullens.

On lap 9, Mullens' car suddenly came to a halt as the leaders were working their way through lapped traffic. That brought out a caution flag and proved to be a key moment.

Wolff used the restart to vault from third to first with a turn-two pass. He sprinted to a 3.5-second lead by lap 17, then held on the rest of the way to earn the win as Paden Phillips finished second and Chase Domer was third.

The top three cars were separated by just 1.1 seconds at the finish.

Wolff said the track surface was challenging after receiving a lot of moisture during the week, but he found it to his liking.

"It was a lot of fun," Wolff said. "With the track having so much bite, you could pretty much maneuver wherever you needed to go. Overall, it was an awesome race track. Thanks to the fans for sticking it out."

A heavy mist set in prior to the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod feature and that race was postponed. The B-Mods will run double features next Saturday, with the postponed line-up leading off the program.

Kris Jackson and Andy Bryant will be starting on the front row of that race when the Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series resumes next Saturday, May 18, with OnMedia/DISH/DirecTV presenting the program. Gates will open at 4 p.m. with hot laps at 6:30 and racing at 7:05.

On the horizon is Lucas Oil Speedway's biggest event of the season: the 27th annual Show-Me 100 presented by Protecttheharvest.com, May 23-25. The crown jewel event for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series and Lucas Oil MLRA Series will have full programs all three nights for both the Late Models and USRA Modifieds.
