(Warrensburg) The weather was perfect for the KOKO Radio race season opener at Central Missouri Speedway. 87 drivers, including many first time B- modified drivers, checked into the pits in 4 classes with race fans ready for the action packed dirt track racing on opening night at the CMS high banks. Fans were treated to some great side by side action throughout the event with first time winners in most of the classes. After 18 races 4 new drivers were crowned feature winners on the smooth dirt surface after some heavy rains in the Warrensburg area this past week.
28 Mighty Modifieds started the A-main feature when Harrisonville’s Smokin Joe Walker drove his number 11W Modified to victory lane with his first win at CMS followed close behind by Warrernsburg's Dean Wille. Wille attempted to pass him several times on the high side, but Walker prevailed after several race cautions. Aaron Marrant also showed some good moves down low moving up front along with Richard Layne and Terry Schultz. Terry continued his early season success with another top five finish tonight. He tried working the high side of the track during the feature and moved up several spots for a fourth place finish.
Heat race winners included Joe Walker, Richard Layne, Aaron Marrant and Dean Wille.

Late Model fans were not disappointed when Jason Estes from Cameron battled with the 2006 Track Champion Brett Rollert for his first victory at CMS in the ULMA Late Model class. Fans were on their feet during the caution free feature event. David Angell had to pull out of the race early with some mechanical problems and Jon Binning from Warrensburg showed off his new car with a strong run into fifth place. Steven Clancy also made some nice moves under Binning and Allen Perryman to take a strong third place finish. Many fans believe this class of cars will grow at CMS as the season progresses.
Heat race winners were Brett Rollert and Jason Estes.
