OSKALOOSA, Iowa (June 1, 2005) -- Racing was held at the Carriker Ford Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa on Wednesday for the first night of action in June sponsored by McDaniel Racing Enterprises of Eldon. Three classes were in action for the USRA Casey's General Stores Championship Series featuring USRA-sanctioned Hobby Stocks, Stock Cars and Modifieds.

The night kicked off with the USRA Stock Car feature with T.J. Criss of Oskaloosa taking the race lead on lap 1 and leading all 18 circuits for the victory. Criss held off several tries from Lynnville driver Brandon Bandstra who worked the bottom side of the racing surface with Criss working the monster cushion and powering off the top side. Criss drove one of the Ferguson-owned cars to victory lane while the other team car took home the third position. Bandstra took a close second-place finish with veteran driver Jim Brown of Fremont taking fourth.

The second feature was the USRA Hobby Stock main event racing 15 laps with Jason McDaniel of Eldon winning and taking his second win at the Carriker Ford Southern Iowa Speedway. McDaniel held off several drivers who tried to take the top spot, but was too strong and led all 15 laps for the win. Bobby Greene of Eddyville tried several times for the lead but took home the third spot after Colt Mather of Webster took the runner-up spot from Greene. Rick Landgrebe of Sigourney took fourth.

The final feature was the USRA Modified nightcap. Mark Burgtorf of Quincy, Ill., paced the field for all 20 laps and first ever win at the Carriker Ford Southern Iowa Speedway. This was Burgtorf's fifth USRA-sanctioned Modified win of the 2005 racing season. Mike Hughes of Rose Hill took the second spot, holding off 10th-starting Zack VanderBeek of New Sharon, who raced to the checkered with the margin at the finish less than two inches. The fourth spot went to New Sharon driver Brad Pinkerton after coming from the 13th starting position.

Next week's racing action will feature Kids Night at the Races sponsored by the Club House in Oskaloosa, with some bicycles and several prizes given away to the young race fans.

Gates will open at 5 p.m., with racing scheduled to take to the track at 7 p.m. Adult general admission is just $9, with juniors and seniors $7. Kids 11 and under are admitted FREE each and every regular race night. Members of the military simply need to show their military i.d. at the ticket window to get in FREE ... just our way of saying "Thank You" for making it possible for all of us to enjoy the greatest spectator sport in the world.

The Carriker Ford Southern Iowa Speedway continues to offer one of the most lucrative weekly payouts in the state of Iowa. In addition, USRA-licensed drivers compete against drivers from other USRA-sanctioned tracks for a share of the USRA Casey's General Stores Championship Series national points fund.
