Central Missouri Speedway
June 12, 2019
For Immediate Release
(Warrensburg, MO) Exciting dirt-track action continues this Saturday at Central Missouri Speedway (CMS) as once again the best drivers in the Midwest are set to thrill fans in the five weekly racing series divisions, including A-Mods, Street Stocks, B-Mods, Mod-Lites, and Pure Stocks.
After weekly racing resumed last Saturday, there are signs of champions emerging as drivers show their muscle to hold on to the lead or to gain ground on the current standing’s leaders. Here is a look at the current top five in each of the weekly divisions as Mid-season looms just a few weeks away.
Logan Headley confirmed his stance atop the standings with a victory in last week’s Pure Stock main event, he currently leads Joey Harper in the battle for the Pure Stock championship. His four top-five finishes and last week’s win has him atop the standings heading into this week.
| Car | PURE STOCK STANDINGS | Total | |
| Pos. | No. | DRIVER’S NAME & HOMETOWN | Points |
| 1 | 23- | Logan Headley, Lone Jack | 369 |
| 2 | 21- | Joey Harper, Buckner | 333 |
| 3 | 7- | Spencer Reiff, Kansas City | 316 |
| 4 | 28jr- | Gale Harper, Warrensburg | 311 |
| 5 | 24- | Jimmie Workman, Concordia | 296 |
To say that Dillon Raffurty is dominant is an understatement. In five points events this season for Mod-Lites, Dillon has four wins, his only non-win, a second, to Ed Griggs, who ironically is the guy giving chase to him in the standings heading into this week’s action.
| Car | MOD-LITE STANDINGS | Total | |
| Pos. | No. | DRIVER’S NAME & HOMETOWN | Points |
| 1 | 46- | Dillon Raffurty, Kansas City | 495 |
| 2 | 47- | Ed Griggs, Pleasant Hill | 472 |
| 3 | 41- | Mike Raffurty, Kansas City | 433 |
| 4 | 75- | Justin Raffurty, Kansas City | 414 |
| 5 | 98- | Jeff Raffurty, Holt | 385 |
Kameron Grindstaff continues to lead in the B-Mod rundown, but former and multiple-time champion Jacob Ebert is keeping the pressure on as this battle looks to be one of the fiercest of the year in the early season. Ironically, neither driver has recorded a victory to this point in the season.
| Car | B-MOD STANDINGS | Total | |
| Pos. | No. | DRIVER’S NAME & HOMETOWN | Points |
| 1 | 14- | Kameron Grindstaff, Independence | 423 |
| 2 | 94- | Jacob Ebert, Oak Grove | 405 |
| 3 | 05- | Jeremy Lile. Higginsville | 375 |
| 4 | 7j- | Jake Richards, Lansing KS | 335 |
| 5 | 9- | Don Marrs, Shawnee KS | 313 |
Clayton Campbell has amassed a 50-point advantage over fellow former champion Brett Wood. Campbell’s season has been nothing short of spectacular with five top-5 runs in five outings, having recorded a win, a second, and three third-place finishes.
| Car | STREET STOCK STANDINGS | Total | |
| Pos. | No. | DRIVER’S NAME & HOMETOWN | Points |
| 1 | 30c- | Clayton Campbell, Otterville | 468 |
| 2 | 7- | Brett Wood, Warrensburg | 418 |
| 3 | 14- | Larry Ferris, Kansas City KS | 402 |
| 4 | 5H- | Eric Hammons, Smithton | 398 |
| 5 | 28k- | Chris Kircher, Drexel | 388 |
Basehor, Kansas driver Tim Karrick has one victory, two runner-up finishes, and a fourth-place run to sit securely atop the A-Mod standings. Karrick, a long-time competitor at CMS has never won a CMS championship. Much like last year when fellow long-time competitor Chad Lyle won his first-ever championship, could it be the year for Karrick to take the crown?
| Car | A-MOD STANDINGS | Total | |
| Pos. | No. | DRIVER’S NAME & HOMETOWN | Points |
| 1 | 1k- | Tim Karrick, Basehor KS | 377 |
| 2 | 90- | Terry Schultz, Sedalia | 341 |
| 3 | 75- | Gunner Martin, Sugar Creek | 291 |
| 4 | 74- | Rodney Schweizer, Kansas City KS | 276 |
| 5 | 16s- | Chad Lyle, Oak Grove | 263 |

US Hwy 13 north of Warrensburg is now under construction.
