Wheatland, MO (July 24th, 2011)- The Ozarks Food Harvest collected approximately 8,000 pounds of food as fans poured out support for the organization on Saturday night. KTTS presented the Rockstar Energy Drink Championship Series and welcomed fans with coupons and give-a-ways. A big thank you to The Ozarks Food Harvest and KTTS for being on hand, and a special thank you to all the fans for coming out to support the food drive. Rylan Long, Eric Turner and Sundance Keepper thought it was a pretty great night too, as each of them ended up in Victory Lane. The surface of Lucas Oil Speedway was in tip top shape and provided intense racing action all night.
The first Main Event of the evening featured the Carson’s Corner Factory Stocks. Chip Shaddox and Sundance Keepper made up the front row and would remain the top two throughout the race, until Ben Solberg would take second from Shaddox. Keepper would go on to win the feature with Shaddox finishing in third. Ben Solberg took his 6th place starting position and turned it in for a second place finish. Keith Webster of Highlandville, MO would finish in fourth with Tony Reasoner Jr. in fifth.
The Pitts Homes A-Modified’s took to the track next with John Fellers of Flemmington, MO on the pole. In the first few laps local fan favorite, Eric Turner picked up the pace and took over the top position. Turner would remain out front with Kyle Covert behind the 99T machine in second. Covert would start and hold onto the second place position for the finish. Lebanon, Missouri’s Jamie Ragland would come from the 18th starting spot to finish with an impressive 3rd. Ragland was on the move the entire race and picked up positions each lap for a strong finish. Mickey Burrell finished in fourth and John Fellers finished the night in fifth.
The TNT Quick Shop Late Models had a familiar face in Victory Lane as Rylan Long picked up another win at Lucas Oil Speedway. Long would start on the pole and remain out front for the feature event. Long continues to rack up win’s here at the Diamond of Dirt Tracks with 7 for the 2011 season. Rex Merritt of Billings, MO had a strong second place finish in an effort to run the race leader down.
