WARRENSBURG, Mo. -- After a week of steady rain in Warrensburg the sun returned along with the drivers and fans to watch racing action at Central Missouri Speedway (CMS) on 610 Sports Radio Race Night featuring the USRA Modifieds, Street Stocks, B-Modifieds, Pure Stocks and guest class Grand Nationals.

USRA Modified drivers were anxious to tune in their race programs with the Fourth of July Tom Wilson BBQ Bowl specials just a few weeks away. All total, 62 drivers drove into the pits for another week of exciting CMS action.

USRA Modifieds completed the night’s action in preparation for the $5,000-to-win special event over the Fourth of July weekend. A tight championship points race is developing with less than 10 points separating Shad Badder, Jim Moody, Terry Schultz and Tim Karrick at the top of the list.

The heat races were amazing to watch once again with Warrensburg driver, Dean Wille in front of Jim Moody and Terry Schultz in heat one and Aaron Marrant out of Orrick grabbing the checkers in heat two, followed by Tim Karrick and Nick Pence .

The 25-lap feature was another chance for a new driver to claim the weekly $1,000 to win prize. This week, Moody looked strong all night as he jumped into then early lead with Karrick, Marrant, Wille and Schultz hot on his tail. Karrick closed on Moody on lap 5 but Moody ultimately started to pull away. Halfway through, Moody was in command with Karrick, Marrant and Schultz battling for second through fourth. Then, Wille slowed in turn four bringing out the second yellow of the night, he was unable to continue the race.

On the following restart, Karrick attempted to move down low and bumped the turn four uke tire, which caused left front suspension problems and wheel damage. Track officials determined he was able to continue the feature and he stayed on the track. In the meantime, Shad Badder the current point’s leader going into the race had to stop in the infield and was unable to continue due to left-front damage to his car.

After another caution, involving Gunner Martin and Karrick in turn two, the final five laps saw Moody hanging on to claim his third feature win of the year. Marrant moved into second just ahead of Schultz in third followed by Dalton Kirk, who was later disqualified. As a result, Jimmy Eaton moved into fourth with Scotty Martin taking fifth. Moody later commented, “We got to keep winning each week to stay out in front of this tough field of USRA drivers.”
