For Immediate Release
(Warrensburg, Missouri) The 21st Annual Tom Wilson Memorial takes center stage at Central Missouri Speedway (CMS) during two nights of racing throughout the Independence Day weekend. The action is highlighted by the return of the $5,000-to-win, $1,000-to-start, 50-lap A-main for A-Mods.
POWRi Super Stocks, B-Mods, and Pure Stocks also compete both nights. Saturday’s events include the Soul Fuel band during a post-race party in the Pub 13 building. Sunday is highlighted by the annual CMS Fireworks Extravaganza, held after the races conclude. This display is hands down one of the best in the region.
