Springfield Raceway Full Results-Casey’s General Store Night
Springfield, Mo.-The “Quick-Quarter”of The Springfield Raceway presented Casey’s General Stores Night At The Races with current USRA Modified track point leader Jody Tillman fnding back several challenges from Ryan”The Kid” Gilmore on the lightning quick and racy high-banked Quarter-mile clay oval while Gilmore had to work hard to capture The Out Pace USRA B modified feature over a 24 car field.
The USRA Modified feature found Gilmore and Tillman on the front row with Jim Body and Jerry Lankton in row 2. Gilmore got the hole shot on the start and wasted no time in going to the low side while Tillman rode to the top side as they went door to door with Tillman carrying the speed off turn 2 and grabbed the lead with Gilmore close behind. Tillman refused to move off the top side as Gilmore was searching in different places in the quick paced 20 lap feature while Body, Lankton and Mickey Burrell were wagging war for third place with door to door racing.
Tillman would used lapped traffic to fend back a mid race attempt out of turn 4 at one point. Only 2 cautions slowed the race as Gilmore continued to apply pressure on Tillman in his West Point Marine/Yeoman Engines/Hoffman cars 85 started to search around to make sure he didn’t use the top cushion up. The final 3 laps saw Gilmore in his Danny Martin Trucking/Hoffman cars 3366 going to diamond the track to move around The Branson Ridge runner Tillman but fell short as Tillman gets his 3rd win of the season and 2nd consecutive with Gilmore, Body, Burrell, and Lankton providing great action behind the leaders in the top 5.

In Out Pace USRA B Modified action-Ryan”The Kid” Gilmore found the low groove to his preference as we shot to the inside of leader Aaron Scroggins out of turn 4 and then had to fend back current track point leader Jackie Dalton on a late restart and 24 other B Mods in an action packed Casey’s feature. Scroggins earned the pole spot with Bobby Pearish on the outside as Greg Woodcock and Dillion McCowan in row 2 while the powerhouse duo of Dalton and Gilmore in row 3. Scroggins took the opening lead with Pearish close behind on the top side as 3 wide action followed all over the pack. Gilmore was wasting no time in moving downstairs and finding the opening holes early. An early caution for Pearish who lost a driveshaft bunched things tight and on the restart Gilmore was quick to make his move as Dalton was on the charge on the top side. With Gilmore out in front a late caution set-up a close finish as Dalton took the top side on the restart and pulled right up to the leader but came up short as Gilmore, Dalton, early leader Scroggins, Rex Merritt and Mike Hailmann completed a tough top 5.
Other winners included Kyle Purvis( Pure Stocks), Elijah Keepper( Midwest Modz) and Trenton Simon( Legends) in an action packed night

Great and early 3 wide action as Cater grabs the early lead. Purvis stays patient while holding back Redus and Jones for the spot. Making a smart move to take the lead about halfway as Tillman applies pressure.
