2nd Annual Wehrs Machine & Racing Products Bullring Bash
Dallas County Speedway, Urbana, MO
The Allen family has operated the track for more than 20 years and continue to make it a place for great weekly racing. The 1/4-mile (and that's generous) dirt oval never disappoints, and the concession prices are almost too fair. Guests are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or blanket for seating in the grass.
Last year's inaugural event was the first visit by full-blown Modified in more than a decade, and the first ever by a national series. On an historic night, Ryan Gustin scored his 100th career USMTS victory by a whisker over Dereck Ramirez. It was so good, in fact, that it earned the USMTS Race of the Year Award.
The USMTS Modifieds will be joined by American Racer USRA Stock Cars and USRA B-Mods. Fans will also witness the first-ever Promoters Challenge—a race to benefit the Ozarks Area Racers Foundation.
