POWRi series regular Zach Daum arrived in Springfield with the intention of "shaking down" a new car before the 2008 Chili Bowl. Everyone in attendance quickly realized that there were no bugs to be worked out when Zach came from the back of the pack to win his heat race in convincing fashion. Zach then used his front row starting position to lead all twenty laps of the A feature.

Although there was never a contest for the lead the racing for 2ND place definitely raised the temperature for all of the spectators who braved freezing temperatures to see a great show. A yellow flag on lap 2 for the spinning car of Mike Cooper bunched up the field. The restart saw the first red flag in OMMS history when Evan Pardo got upside down in turn 2. When the green flag flew the crowd witnessed a dogfight for the runner up spot between the cycle powered cars of Merril Lamb and Beau Heavelow and the traditional midgets of Kevin Bayer and Jason Dull. After nine laps of hard core racing Lamb slipped from 2ND to to 6Th when he felt that he had a tire going down. Bayer and Heavelow settled into 2ND and 3rd while Merril used the remaining 8 laps to sneak back by Eddie Sauer and Dull to finish in 4Th. After ducking into the pits due to damage sustained on the lap 3 red flag, Barry Lamb put on a passing clinic to charge from the rear to to 6Th with a slightly damaged car.

Heat Race Winners: Evan Pardo, Zach Daum


The OMMS would like to thank the drivers who traveled from 5 states to race in extremely cold weather. The OMMS would also like to thank Springfield Raceway for allowing us to be part of this event and the all fans in attendance for watching us in spite of the weather.
 
I bet that was some cold racing! Hot on the track but cold in the stands. Y'all are a hardy bunch in SW Missouri. Glad to see a full field of Modifieds at Jerry's track too.

Now here's a weather forecast:

Starting Thursday in Houston, Texas:
