Lebanon,Mo.-They say green is unlucky in the world of racing.Better tell Colt Cheevers that because the young driver from Macks Creek doesn't believe in that statement as he took his Green Allen AutoSports B-Mod to victory lane Friday night as the LebanonMidwaySpeedway held its first B-Mod special paying event of the season.

31 B-Mods fought through qualifying heats and a last chance race to make the 20 car field as Lebanon's Jeff Albright Jr earned the pole spot with Cheevers along side.On the start,Albright grabbed the opening lead but by turn 3 Cheevers pulled a strong move to the top side and took over as the pack crossed the opening lap with JC Morton following in third.The first yellow waved as defending track champion Jason Otto and Tyler Brown made contact on lap 3 sending both to the rear.On the restart Albright closed-up to the leader Cheevers,but during the long run Cheevers would open the lead back-up with great action for third place invloving Morton,Mickey Burrell and many others.With Cheevers still setting a quick pace and Albright staying close the battle for third was tight as Sean Williams,Darian Hendrix,Jimmy VanZandt and B feature winner Josh Woody were swapping the spots.When the checkered flew it was Cheevers grabbing his second Midway Victory of the season followed closely by Albright,Williams,Hendrix,Woddy Jason Otto,Tyler Brown,JC Morton,Brian Webster and Jamie Barker completing the top 10.

The FactoryStock feature was a nail bitter at the end as Burl Woods grabbed the opening with James Flood close behind followed by Ben Solberg and Sundance Keeper.On lap 3 Flood pulled a power move in turn 3 taking the lead as Solberg followed.Point leader bob Gustin,Sundance Keeper,Ken hicks and defending champion Tim Petty were battling for third.With Flood closing in on lapped traffic on lap 12,Solberg began to close up the gap and on lap 13 had caught the leader and was challanging as Gustin had his hands full with Hicks.Using the traffic to his advantage on the final lap,Flood grabbed his first ever Midway victory followed closely by Solberg,Gustin,Hicks and Petty in the top 5 as the Factory feature again proved a great feature.

The Bomber feature had Jack Hamer grab the opening lead,but point leader Joe Francis made a strong move to overtake Hamer for the lead.During the long Green run,Shawn Strong began his climb to the top from his 7th starting spot and battled with Tim Jones,Rodney Yost and Hamer for position while Francis opened up a big lead.

On lap 13 the caution flew giving Strong a last chance to grab the lead,but on the restart Francis pulled away taking his second win of the win of the with Strong a solid second followed by Hamer,Jones and Yost.

The Hillbilly Farm Truck made their debut with Steve Steinmark taking the victory over Willie Payne and Matt Schreiner.

The Car Enduro featured lots of action as Steve Stuart setting a quick and lapping up to the second place car of Derek Micheal.On lap 45 Stuart lost a rear wheel.This gave Micheal the lead and moving Kris Jackson into second place and Brian Schutt into third.On lap 64 Jackson lost a wheeltaking in out of the race and moving Schutt into the runner-up spot as Corey Barker,Kolt Barker into the paying spots.Micheal took the win with Schutt finishing 1 lap down as Corey Barker,Kolt Barker and Tim Petty completed the top 5.
