For Immediate Release

(Warrensburg, Missouri) Blazing hot summer temps returned on Saturday along with drivers and fans to take in another week of championship season racing at Central Missouri Speedway (CMS). On hand were 21 B-Mods, 12 Super Stocks, 9 Lightning Sprints, 11 Midwest Mods, and 9 Pure Stocks, for a total of 63 teams.

Drivers competed in preliminary heat races to sort out their main event lineups for the main events. All weekly divisions competed for both POWRi national points and track points while guest class Lightning Sprints competed for POWRi points only. All total, there were 11 heat races and five main events.

POWRi B-Mods - 21 Entries
Heat 1 - 8 Laps - 3:19.910: 1. 61-Sturgis Streeter[1]; 2. 94-Jacob Ebert[4]; 3. 30-Rex Harris[3]; 4. 99S-Brad Smith[6]; 5. 6T-Michael Taylor III[5]; 6. 1K-Tim Karrick[2]; 7. (DNF) 15-Colin Pierce[7]

Heat 2 - 8 Laps - 4:34.212: 1. 90-Terry Schultz[2]; 2. 12C-Stephen Clancy[4]; 3. 6-Lucas Isaacs[1]; 4. 22C-Cole Campbell[6]; 5. 19B-Kaleb Bray[3]; 6. 2-Brayden Bohn[7]; 7. (DNF) 99-Jess Fitzpatrick[5]

Aaron Marrant is a former modified champion and past late model winner at CMS, but for this night he was in a B-Mod and earned front-row starting honors alongside Terry Schultz for the 20-lap main event. Schultz led the opening laps, but not without constant and heavy pressure from Marrant, who searched for a way to the front. Just as it appeared that Marrant would challenge for the win, he surprisingly exited the race, ending his bid for the win on lap five. Behind Schultz, previous winners Sturgis Streeter and Stephen Clancy worked hard to close in for the win during a battle that lasted several laps. Another solid field of cars produced some of the top talent in the region with Jacob Ebert, Jake Fetterman, Brad Smith, and Cole Campbell all in search of a top-five finish. Schultz held strong at the helm, until lap 15, when Clancy began closing in on the leader. By lap 16 and 17, the top two literally ran side-by-side at the line in one of the standout races of the year. The bid for the win went right to the checkers, as Schultz was able to keep his machine ahead of a hard-charging Clancy to claim his sixth win of the season. Cancy was second with Streeter third. Campbell was fourth with Smith rounding out the top five.

Landon Nakoneczny of Warrensburg earned his first-ever CMS front-row starting position alongside many times feature winner Marc Carter to pace the 20-lap Super Stock main event. Carter grabbed the early lead over Blaine Ewing and Nakoneczny through lap three. Ewing began to track Carter for the lead by lap four as Jimmy Ngo and Aaron Poe had a close and clean race for the fourth spot. At lap five, Ewing moved to the high side with Carter low, and as the pair came around to complete lap six, Ewing moved to the front of the field, relegating Carter to second. Ngo and Poe’s battle stayed close for several laps until lap 13, when Poe worked his way to the third spot behind Ewing and Carter. At the lap 15 marker, Carter found a line to his liking and began to close in on Ewing for the lead, pressuring him for several laps in the late stages of the race. Ultimately, Ewing took the win, this third of the season and fourth at CMS overall. Carter finished second with Poe third. Jimmy Ngo was fourth with Nakoneczny fifth, for his best-ever CMS finish.

Prince moved in to challenge Meyer on lap five as the two drivers pulled away from the rest of the field. Meyer drifted too high in turn two just past the mid-point of the race as Prince moved to the front of the field with Meyer hanging on to second.

By lap six, McDowell moved to the front of the field over Nolker and Reiff as Nolker’s night came to an early end with a flat left rear tire.
