This Saturday night is 98.5 FM “The Bar” Radio Race Night at the high-banked dirt track featuring all four CMS racing divisions, Modifieds, ULMA Late Models, Street Stocks, and B-Modifieds. In a repeat performance last week Mother Nature tried to douse the Warrensburg area, but on Saturday the sun and strong winds returned to help dry out the Central Missouri Speedway - Kenny’s Tile track. The track surface was once again in first-class shape during the features for all the drivers in attendance. Track owner Earl Walls announced an increase in the payout for the lower end of the ULMA Late Model, Street Stock and B-modified divisions to help defray some of the increased cost of racing this year.
The drivers didn’t disappoint the crowd on hand with thrilling races throughout the evening. Current point’s leader Jon Binning of Warrensburg drove his machine into victory lane last weekend for another victory at CMS by holding off a hard-charging Jason Bodenhamer of Centerview. After technical inspections concluded, Tammy Korff of Fulton was awarded the top spot for her first feature win in the street stock division. Bryan Montgomery of Oak Grove was another first time feature winner last week in the b-modified class. Aaron Marrant of Orrick powered his car to the checkered flag past Tim Karrick from Basehor, KS to stay on top in the in the modified division.
This weekend will be the final Saturday night ULMA late model drivers can prepare for the June 21 CMS late model $800 to win and $120 to start special feature event. If the driver has raced at least twice in the late model division at CMS this season, you will not have to pay the $75 entry fee for this race. ULMA rules apply and you will not have to pay the CMS registration fee for this special. This race will count as a ULMA point’s race towards the season championship.
98.5 FM “The Bar” night gets underway this Saturday night, June 14th with pit gates opening at 4:30, grandstand admission gates at 5, hot laps on the track 7 and racing underway at 7:30. A reminder to drivers and fans for the upcoming Tom Wilson Memorial BBQ Bowl on Friday, July 4th and Saturday, July 5th; they can obtain entry forms and 2-day admission tickets at the track admission and pit entrance areas.
