By Chris Boyd – Hello race fans! This is your July 22nd Race Recap for St. Francois County Raceway sponsored by Soaring Eagle Distributing. This race was above the rest on the temperature scale. However, the show did not disappoint. As usual, there was something special going on. The special event for the night was the Topless A-Modified show with the winner taking home an extra $50, a big trophy and a cowboy hat. On top of that, The B-Modifieds had the opportunity to run a dash and they put on a good show with it as well. The other special event for the night would be the B-Modified Mechanics Race. This race was set up just like the Sprint Car Mechanics Race. The crew members that turn those wrenches on the cars had their chance to jump behind the wheel and make a few laps. Now time to get to the regular show.
