For Immediate Release
(Warrensburg, Missouri) Central Missouri Speedway (CMS) owners and promoters Earl and Susan Walls mark their 28th season at the helm of the track as another year of racing awaits fans and drivers on Saturday.
The new season features a unique kickoff with an afternoon practice session as the first event to take to the track beginning at 2:30 p.m. Last week’s planned practice was cancelled due to wet and cold conditions, but this practice session allows for some last-minute tuning prior to the first official green flag of the new season.
On Saturday, Pit Gates open at 2 p.m. with a planned hour-long practice session to follow. After which, the CMS track maintenance crew will entirely re-work the track to ensure things are ready for the official start of the 2022 season later in the evening.
The pits will clear and open at normal weekly times after the practice session, which includes pits reopening at 4:30, grandstands at 5, pill draw cutoff for drivers 6:15, pit meeting 6:30, hot laps at 7, and racing at 7:30.
