Browning, Missouri's Tommy Cordray has opened an 82 point lead over second
place in the TNT Quick Shop Late Model season long points battle, as his top
challenger, Jeremy Kelley suffered damage to his GRT Race Car on June 26th
forcing him to miss the racing action last Thursday. This has allowed
Wheatland's Andy Kennedy driving his familiar #55 machine to move up to the
second spot although his margin over third is only four points over Ben
Solberg. Walnut Grove, Missouri's Kelley has slipped back to fourth just one
point behind Solberg and only 87 out of the top spot. Harlen Kennedy rounds
out the Top-5 only 97 behind the leader Cordray.

A-Modifieds after running second to Shawn Nations on Thursday night as
Nations won the race and captured $75 bonus money put up by CB Race Photos
for putting a stop to Stovall's winning streak in 2010 at Lucas Oil
Speedway. Stovall's Hoffman Racecar has been nearly flawless all season as
he leads by 130 points over Archie, Missouri's Tim Setzer. Nations sits in
the third spot with local favorite Jason Pursley in fourth and the youngster
from Nevada, Jon Sheets in fifth.
