Robbie Reed won the USRA Modified main event.


Saturday night saw wo veterans who are leading their championship chases emerge as Lucas Oil Speedway feature winners.

Earning feature wins as KOLR 10, KOZL 27 and Ozarks Fox presented Ozarks Food Harvest Night were Robbie Reed (Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds) and Kris Jackson (Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mods).

Reed earns third USRA Mod win: Season points leader Robbie Reed of Mexico, Missouri, took command midway through the race and went on to grab his third Pitts Homes USRA Modified victory of the season.

Reed finished .928 seconds in front of runner-up Chase Domer to cement his points lead. Reed also has three second-place finishes on the season.

"It was a nice track," Reed said of the slick condition. "It's always fun coming down here and running."

Reed and Kirk started on the front row and it was Reed getting the jump and leading the first four laps before Kirk made an outside pass to claim the lead to complete lap five.

Taking advantage of a restart following the race's third caution, Reed regained the lead with an inside pass of Kirk in turn two on lap nine. One lap later, Domer worked past Kirk to move into the runner-up position.

Reed had opened a 1.5-second lead by lap 14 when another caution bunched the field with Domer in second, Tracy Wolf third and Paden Phillips in fourth.

Reed had a flawless restart and cruised from there with Domer about six car lengths behind at the finish. Tracy Wolf started eighth and finished third, with Phillips fourth and Rusty Skaggs, who started 10th, wound up fifth.

Kris Jackson rolls in B-Mod feature: Reigning USRA B-Mod national champion Kris Jackson of Lebanon strengthened his hold on the track points lead with a flag-to-flag victory in the Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mod main event. It was his second win in 2020 at Lucas Oil Speedway.

"We've got our new car rolling pretty good now," Jackson said after putting his month-old Rage-chassis car in victory lane. "We were fighting some gremlins. A lot of people do when they put something new together. It likes these smooth, slick surfaces.

"This is the best race track, in my personal opinion, that I've been on all year. This is awesome. May hat's off to these guys who put in a lot of hard work."

Jackson was laying a whipping on the field, opening a 4.3-second lead over JC Morton with just three laps remaining. But a caution wiped that margin away and forced Jackson to work for the win, via a three-lap shootout in front of Morton, Eric Turner and Andy Bryant.

It proved no problem for Jackson as he handled the restart by protecting the bottom groove. Jackson wound up 2.3-seconds in front of Morton, with Turner, Bryant and pole-starting Bryce Gotschall rounding out the top five.


Kris Jackson won the USRA B-Mod main event.

On the dirt track next Saturday night it will be Fan Appreciation Night Presented by KY3 Digital/O-Zone. Food and drink specials will include $1 nachos and cheese, $2 hot dogs and $2 soft drinks or water. The Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds will be featured with a 25-lap, $1,000-to-win main event.
