(Warrensburg, MO) Race fans and drivers enjoyed a respite from the recent hot and muggy weather at Central Missouri Speedway (CMS) on Saturday evening as 89 drivers competed on KDKD and AG 1280 radio Race night. By the end of the night, Jim Moody claimed the USRA Modified feature, Brad Smith from Belton took his second USRA B-Mod win of the year, Jimmy Ngo from Independence picked up the Street Stock win, in Midwest Mod-Lite action Dillon Raffurty from Kansas City took his fourth win, and Byron Glotzbach from Topeka, Kansas, also took his second feature win of the year in the Pure Stocks.

The Pure Stocks started the night of heat racing action night with 16 drivers checked in for competition.  Jimmy Smith charged to the first heat win of the night for his first heat win of the year. Byron Glotzbach grabbed the second heat for his fourth of the season.

Smith started on the poll of the main event and held the lead for the opening lap until Glotzbach moved to the front after a nice move on the low side. David Doelz, Rodger Detherage and Joey Harper battled in the top five throughout the feature swapping spots on several occasions. Detherage finally passed Smith on lap eight and moved into second but by then Glotzbach had a full straight away lead in front of the field. As the checkers flew, Glotzbach celebrated with his second feature win of the year. Detherage, the point’s leader, was second with Glen Wilson making a late-race charge into third with Smith and Harper rounding out the top five.

The feature commenced with Brockway out front after a few attempts to start the feature. Then, Jim Moody took command of the race as Brad Smith stalked him lap-after-lap. After several cautions slowed the pace, Moody seemed to have the feature in his hands but a lapped car spun in front of him leaving him with no place to go and ultimately relegating him to the back of the field. Smith inherited the lead and never looked back as he grabbed his second CMS feature win this season. Jacob Ebert looked strong again and finished in second just in front of a charging Steven Clancy, Jr., in third. Michael Bixby, Chad Staus and Chris Brockway completed the top six.

The lightning fast Midwest Mod-Lites entertained fans during a pair of heat races as Travis Alexander, Michael Raffurty and Dillon Raffurty charged to the checkers for their respective heat wins with 16 drivers on hand for racing during the night.

In the feature event, Dillon Raffurty led early with Travis Alexander close by in second. Michael Raffurty followed his dad David Raffurty and uncle Jeff Raffurty who raced close in the top five. Alexander ended his night with a spin and mechanical problems in turn two on lap seven. Donnie Dannar with three feature wins almost was a victim of the Alexander spin but kept his car moving and moved up into fourth after the restart. In the end, Dillon Raffurty claimed his fourth win of the year and his second of two nights of racing. Michael Raffurty, Dillon’s brother, finished strong in second with Jeff Raffurty, Dannar and David Raffurty finishing inside the top five.
In the Street Stock division, drivers once again set their sights on victory lane as 10 racers zoned into setting up their cars for a heat win. The first heat had Brian Inlow capture his second heat this year while Brett Wood stayed up front in heat two for the checkers with his fourth heat win this season.

The feature was an intense race without a single caution as Brett Wood led early on with Brian Inlow and Jimmy Ngo just behind. Ngo eventually worked his way around Inlow and set his sights on the lead as he slowly inched closer to Wood. Late in the race, Ngo caught up to Wood on the low side and grabbed the top spot leaving Wood in second. Ngo eventually crossed the lined with his first CMS feature win and thanked the many who help him with racing in victory lane. Wood, the current points leader, hung on for second with Jay Prevete, Clayton Campbell and Brian Inlow finishing in the top five.

This week during the USRA Modified heat races the fans had a chance to see some thrilling action as 22 drivers attempted to improve their starting feature positions through the passing points system. Gunner Martin, Kevin Blackburn, and Jim Moody claimed the respective heat wins.

The feature started disjointed with several attempts to complete the early laps as Jim Moody took command from the start. Martin, Kevin Blackburn, and Dalton Kirk moved around the track looking for an advantage just behind the leader. On lap four, a grinding crash occurred after a single-car spin turned into a lane blocking pileup in turn four leaving several drivers out of the event. Finally, after the early race uneasiness, the racers finally settled down as Moody outlasted the field through lapped traffic later in the race. Blackburn returned to form with a solid finish in second as Kerry Davis fought off Dalton Kirk on several occasions to finish in third. Kirk was fourth with tenth-starting Dean Wille advancing to fifth at the finish.
