Dillon Box Grabs Freedom 50, McGowen gets First B-Mod win

*As the season draws to a close the Wilson Automotive Mini Stock\Tuner class got their night in the spotlight with The Freedom 50 and 500.00 up for grabs. With several new drivers looking to grab the cash and big check against a host of tough weekly drivers. The field was split into 2 heats with Plattsburg, Mo Brad Mick and Devin Schmidt from Nortonville, grabbing the wins. Before the feature the top 2 in passing points were brought out to flip to see who would get the option to take the back row challenge, Brad Mick won the toss and challenged accepted. Trent Wilson and Dillon Box would bring them to the green. Box would grab the lead right from the start and as the race progressed all eyes were on Mick as he had quietly worked his way into the top 5. Just after the 25 lap mark would see Mick retire due to mechanical issues as Box Cruised on. At the checkered flag flew Dillon Box would grab his 2nd win in 2 weeks and 3rd in the 2024 season. He was followed by Clint Haigler, Trent Wilson, Larry Trestor and Brett Barber. We would like to thank Wilson Automotive and Fabrication for helping make this happen.

• The Ray's Metal Depot USRA B-Mods put on another great show with Don McIntosh and Jackson McIntosh picking up the heat races. The feature would see McIntosh and Tret Bailey bring the field to the Rowe Motor Company green flag. From the start of the race, you could tell Jackson McGowen was on a mission. He would waste no time working his familiar 89 to the front and left the field to sort it out behind him. Point leader Tyler Kidwell and Bryce Weldon would wage a battler for second and thrid with Weldon grabbing the spot towards the end with Kidwell 3rd. The top 5 would be completed by Patrick Lewis and McIntosh. McGowen making his first trip to the Pete's Victory Lane this year was joined by family and friends as he thanked his sponsors.

*The Home Savings Bank Factory stocks were full of action as heat race wins went to Dylan Allen and Rusty Eitherton. The Feature would see those two bring the field to the green. Allen would grab the early lead with Eitherton in tow, but the drama as further back in the field as Dallas Joyce was experiencing mechanical difficulties and headed to the infield. That added to the drama as Joyce could clinch the points championship if he was running at the race's end. As the laps wound down Joyce was able to refire and join the field sealing the track Championship. Dylan Allen would run a smooth race and picked up his 3rd feature of the year followed by Eitherton, Brayden Bowman, Craig Gibson and Ashley Mueller.

• The Extrusions Inc Midwest Modifieds would bring out another solid field with 3 heat races won by Dylan Daniels, Jimmy Davis and Clint Drake. The feature would Davis work his familiar 01 to the front with a group of cars battling it out behind him. Blake Sutton would mover of the night as he would move up 4 spots to 2nd behind Davis. Davis would go on the grab the win followed by Sutton, Brett Holman, Clint Drake and Dylan Daniels. This will tighten the points lead between Daniels and Trevor Holman with next week being the last race of the year.

*Next week we close out the 2024 season with a visit from the REV Series Super Late Models along with our weekly classes.
