Central Missouri Speedway
May 28, 2019
For Immediate Release
(Warrensburg, MO) This Saturday’s race program at Central Missouri Speedway (CMS) features the return of weekly championship racing in all divisions! Drivers will compete in preliminary heat races, b-mains, and feature events throughout the night in A-Mods, Street Stocks, B-Mods, Mod-Lites, and Pure Stocks.
After last weekend’s fast and furious two nights of racing, which served as the postponed Memorial Day weekend special events, the staff, drivers, and fans are ready for the return of weekly racers gunning for championship points.
Leading the way in the A-Mod standings is Kansas driver Tim Karrick, who recently collected a feature win to help pad his point’s lead. Karrick has amassed three top-five finishes out of three weekly events thus far. Terry Schultz, Dalton Kirk, Kameron Grindstaff, and Dean Wille round out the A-Mod top five.
Clayton Campbell sits atop the Street Stock standings on the strength of four top-three finishes in four starts, which includes one victory. Brett Wood, Eric Hammons, Chris Kircher, and Larry Ferris complete the top five. In B-Mod action, Independence driver Kameron Grindstaff leads the way on the strength of three top-five finishes. Jacob Ebert is second, followed by Jeremy Lile, Patrick Royalty, who swept last week’s action, and Jim Moody.
In Mod-Lite action, Dillon Raffurty continues his stranglehold atop the standings. However, he now has some close competition as last weekend’s winner, Ed Griggs, has closed to within ten points of the leader. Mike and Justin Raffurty sit third and fourth with Travis Alexander rounding out the top five. Lone Jack driver Logan Headley shows the way in Pure Stock competition with three top-five finishes. Joey Harper, Spencer Reiff, Gale Harper, and Jimmie Workman complete the top five.
Promoter Earl Walls and All-Pro Electrical personnel finished up the new and improved speedway MUSCO lighting project on Tuesday evening. The lights around the speedway were raised approximately 25 feet on the eight poles lighting the speedway. So far, feedback has been nothing but positive on the new and improved lighting situation at the track from everyone from drivers to photographers, fans, and staff members.
Grandstand admissions are: $12 adults, $10 for Active-Duty Military and Seniors 65 to 74 years, $6 kids ages 6 to 12 years. Children five and under Free. Senior Citizens 75 and over and those permanently confined to a wheelchair are free in the grandstands.

US Hwy 13 north of Warrensburg is now under construction.
