The Lucas Oil Speedway Budweiser Weekly Racing Series features the ALPS Food Stores ULMA Late Models, the Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds, the Carson’s Corner Napa Factory Stocks, and the Tri-Lakes RV USRA B-Mods.

Jake Williams has returned to the top spot in the ALPS Food Store ULMA Late Model points standings as he leads fellow Lockwood, Missouri driver Dwight Niehoff now by 16 points. The battle for 3rd place has heated up with the summer temps as J.D. Hubert is only 34 points out of the lead with 2013 Factory Stock Champion Brian Schutt just 2 points behind Hubert in fourth. Ethan Young holds down the fifth spot in the season long battle for the championship.

Jeff Cutshaw has closed in on leader Tim Setzer in the Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds as the veteran driver is now only 23 points out of first place as Setzer struggled in the late stages of last Saturday’s main event. A pair of Jasons sit third and fourth respectively as Henley, Missouri’s Jason Russell occupies the third position with Hermitage, Missouri’s Jason Pursley in fourth. Lincoln, Missouri’s Nathan Vaughn rounds out the top-5.

As he has done all season long, David Hendrix holds down the number one spot in the Carson’s Corner Napa Factory Stocks as he scored yet another win this past Saturday night while Kenny Carroll took the second spot and maintained his second place points position. Warrensburg’s Marc Carter is a distant third in points with a pair of Wheatland drivers Chip Shaddox and Randy Gilmore sitting in the fourth and fifth spots.

Finally, in the Tri-Lakes RV USRA B-Mods, Kris Jackson continues to hunt the trifecta, three track championships in a row as several new challengers have emerged in 2014 including Wheatland’s Mike Striegel. Striegel has put up a valiant fight throughout the season but remains 58 points out of the lead. Last Saturday’s USRA Modified feature winner, Steve Muilenburg pulls double duty each night as he sits in the third spot in the USRA B-Mods. Dustin Campbell and Andy Bryant round out the top-5.
