Media Contact Dan Robinson

WHEATLAND, MO (July 31, 2010) - A huge crowd turned out this past Saturday on a seasonably warm July evening for "KTTS Night at the Races" at Lucas Oil Speedway as over 7,000 pounds of food was harvested for the Ozarks Food Harvest Food Drive in a joint effort between Lucas Oil Speedway, KTTS, and the Ozarks Food Harvest. Johnny Fennewald and Vance Wilson captured feature wins to start off the night as the first two events to hit the racetrack were make up features from July 24th after rain postponed the racing action for one week. Sundance Keepper, Shawn Nations, and Jeremy Kelley captured the normally scheduled feature wins in the Carson's Corner Napa Factory Stocks, Pitt's Homes A-Modifieds, and TNT Quick Shop Late Models respectively.

A jubilant Johnny Fennewald from Appleton City, Missouri started on the front row and powered his way to the win in the Pitt's Homes A-Modified feature postponed from July 24th. The Black 00 was second as Chance Bishop charged to the second place finish with Lebanon, Missouri's Jamie Ragland finishing in third after starting on the pole. Sedalia, Missouri's Justin Moon was fourth while Cross Timbers, Missouri's Jeff Cutshaw brought home a Top-5 finish driving the 27T. Point leader and 9-time feature winner Jesse Stovall suffered mechanical trouble resulting in a 14th place finish and putting his regular 00 on the trailer for the evening as there was still a full night of racing action ahead.

Frankford, Missouri's Vance Wilson made it four straight in the TNT Quick Shop Late Models as he rolled to the win in the TNT Quick Shop Late Model make-up feature from July 24th from his outside front row starting position. Point Leader Tommy Cordray put up a valiant effort but came up short by a nose as the pair crossed the AAA Start/Finish Line side by side with Wilson, following a spirited battle for the lead as the pair traded sheet metal for the win. Marionville, Missouri's Phil Edmundson had a solid run as he started third and finished third with Springfield, Missouri's Chris Morelock powering his Show-Me/IMCA Spec engined machine to a fourth place finish after starting in the sixth spot. Veteran Eldorado Springs, Missouri Driver Larry Jones, also driving a Show-Me/IMCA spec engined machine rounded out the top-5 in the black #99.

Everton, Missouri's Sundance Keepper continued his recent hot streak in the Carson's Corner Napa Factory Stocks to take the win over Neosho's Chris Hawkins. Wheatland's Randy Gilmore rallied to take the third spot with Wheatland's Chip Shaddox and Clever, Missouri's Steve Morton in fourth and fifth respectively at the finish.

The Pitt's Homes A-Modifieds put on one of the best races of the season as Shawn Nations battled Jesse Stovall and Jamie Ragland in a spirited 3-way battle for the lead. Stovall campaigned the black 00 driven to a second place finish earlier in the night by teammate Chance Bishop. Nations went on to take his second win of 2010 as a dejected Stovall lost electrical power coming out of turn 4 on the last lap as the entire field passed by as he sat helplessly in the top of Turn 4. Stovall would end up 19th in the final rundown as he sat just 100 feet from the finish line. Jamie Ragland held on to second place at the finish as Fair Grove's Mickey Burrell motored to a third place finish. Terry Kirk and Robbie Test finished fourth and fifth respectively.

As good as the battle was in the Pitt's Homes A-Modifieds, the race for the win in the TNT Quick Shop Late Models was the race of the night as Walnut Grove, Missouri's Jeremy Kelley and El Dorado Springs, Missouri's  Larry Jones put on a driving clinic with with Kelley on the cushion and Jones on the bottom of the race track. The pair traded the lead and slide jobs multiple times but it was Kelley scoring the feature win with Jones holding on to the second spot. An early spin by Phil Edmundson stacked up the field on lap #1 shaking up the lineup and putting a couple of favorites in Vance Wilson and Tommy Cordray deep in the pack for the restart. Wilson rebounded to finish third with Wheatland's Andy Kennedy scoring another Top-5 finish in fourth. Chris Morelock also scored his second Top-5 finish of the night as he crossed the finish line in fifth. Points leader Cordray was able to work his way back to sixth at the finish
