Tanner Mullens won the USRA Modified main event.

Tanner Mullens, a second place runner for the majority of Saturday's main event at Caney Valley Speedway, out dueled Trevor Hughes in lapped traffic to score his first Heartland Modified Tour Presented by Real Racing Wheels win of the season.

In the late stages action tightened up with lapped cars all over in front of the leaders. Mullens and Hughes were joined by Schiffelbein. A few laps later Trevor Hughes went around in turn four and exited the speedway.

“He was a lot better than I was in open air,” said Mullens of Hughes. “I was hoping we would quit having some yellows. So he had to kind of slow down a little bit and I had something to work with to try and get by him. We were pretty good. We're still trying some stuff. We need to be a little bit better.”

The win was worth $2,000 and is the first for Mullens with the HMT. He was very appreciative for the crowd in attendance and ability to race in his home state.

“I can't thank all the fans enough for coming out It's pretty close to home for me. I love coming down here.”

When Hughes bowed out late, the stage was set for Schiffelbein to put the finishing touches on a memorable evening. Tyler Wolff threw everything he had at it, but Schiffelbein held him off by the slimmest of margins at the line, notching his best series finish of the year.

Wolff settled for third, another solid points night while Brandon Givens and Tyler Davis comprised the balance of the top five at the end of the 30-lap feature.

Early heat race wins went to Rick Beebe, Randal Schiffelbein, Tanner Mullens and Dakota Dale.

Tyler Wolff continues to lead the points over Chad Wheeler. Brandon Givens holds down third, with Tad Davis moving to fourth. Nic Bidinger resides in the fifth spot.

Next Up for the series is a trio of events in Missouri. On Friday, August 16, the Electric City Speedway will host and on Saturday, August 17, the show moves right down the road to the Nevada Speedway. Sunday, August 18. The Larry Phillips Memorial will commence from the Monett Motor Speedway on Sunday, August 19.
