MOBERLY, MO. (July 22, 2006) - At 24 Raceway, there was another great nite of racing for this comfortable July 22, but to kick it off, the Moberly racetrack did something of a first: Track Chaplain C.B. Riley performed the first ever wedding at the facility by marrying Johnna Goodman and Jeff White. These two, both of Moberly and a relatives of track employees, decided to use the front stretch to say the "I do's" in front of the wedding party of about 50 invitees, along with the attentive crowd in the grandstand. Congratulations are in order to the new couple, making their home in Moberly, Missouri!

And congratulations go to David Holder for putting on a heck of a performance in winning the A-modified event in his dual with Vance Wilson, Scotty Roberts and Curt Potter. Holder led the last 4 laps for his 3rd win this season, after Wilson crossed the line in front on the first 21 laps. Folks, this was only some of the really great action taking place on the July 22 features.

In the Moberly Motors B-Modified race, it was Tony Garner finally getting his first win after over 2 years of getting better with each passing season of seat time. Garner was successful as the 24 Raceway '03 season champ in the Hornert class, and then made the move to modifieds in '04. T.J. Criss came all the way from Oskaloosa, Iowa to take the Sportsman class win for new racecar owner Rand McKinney. Larry Krog got back to the winner's circle in the Hobby Stock class after quite some time, in another "first" at 24
Raceway: a carburator restrictor plate race. This was the first of a 3-week race schedule before the Hobby Stock 25-lap Special to take place on August 12. And, yes this will be a mandatory restrictor plate race to clear up some of the carburator issues in this class. Brook Hassler took his heat win and picked up his 7th win of the '06 season in the Hornet A feature, while 15 year-old Sarah Woodhurst got the B feature win, allowing her to transfer into the A. Refering to her new car built by MarSkin Engineering, she has a new motto: "A 15 year old girl can win in our car, can you?"

Next week, July 29 at 24 Raceway, the regular five classes of A-modifieds, Moberly Motors B-modifieds, Sportsman, Hobby Stock and the Hornets will be followed by a Mechanic's Race in B-modified racecars. No weddings are currently scheduled for this night, so the facility and chaplain are available........
