J.D. Hubert is on a rail at Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, MO as he took his third sanctioned victory of the year last Saturday night, Hubert's three victories leads all other drivers on the ULMA winners' list this season. J.D. and his brother Evan dominated the two heat races contested among the 17 late model drivers present, 13 ULMA members competed. In the feature event, J.D. held back fellow ULMA competitors Bryon Allison, his Brother Evan, and Kevin Kaiser inside the top five. Jake Williams, John Fellers, Matt Menzie, and Toby Ott all scored top ten finishes by the end of the race with John Fellers earning the Rod End Supply contingency certificate for his finish.

Last Saturday at CMS, 12 member drivers competed in two heat races, in which 13 late models were competing. The first heat race featured Bob Test in a dominating win over Randy Ainsworth of Excelsior Springs, MO. For heat race number two, Danny Lorton of Moberly grabbed the lead from the beginning and never looked back; Robbie Test finished second at the line. Heat race winners Test and Lorton led the 13-car field to the stripe for the initial green flag and for several laps the pair ran side-by-side for the lead. A caution flag flew on lap six as the drivers regrouped for the restart, upon which Lorton's impressive run at the front ended as he clipped one of the infield tires, which caused damage to his left front wheel. Once the track was cleared and racing resumed, Test again paced the field. The fiercest action on the track was for second as Randy Ainsworth, Robbie Test, Steve Clancy of Odessa, MO and Kevin Coyne of Kingsville, all ran strong. As the race drew to a close, Ainsworth continued his best-ever run near the front of the field in second place. In the end, Bob Test drove to victory lane for his first-ever win at the speedway over Ainsworth in second; Test’s son, Robbie, finished third with David Barker of Kingsville, MO fourth, Clancy fifth and Coyne sixth. CMS holds another week of competition this Saturday, check out all the latest track news at www.centralmissourispeedway.net.
