by: Ronnie Williams

Lebanon, Mo. (March 20, 2006) - Officials from the Lebanon Midway Speedway and the Show-Me Racin Series have come together and will sanction the Late Model portion of the 2nd annual Coca-Cola Fall Brawl on Sept.22-23.

This 2 day event will pay 1500 to win the Late Model feature with a strong payoff down the line.

"We looked at several things for the Late Model portion of this event and with the growing number of cars along with our weekly Fastrak Late Models, this will be a good show for the fans. quoted owner Harold Armstrong.

"Ken Essary has really done a nice job with this series and if you look at our schedule this season, we have 2 MidWest Regional Fastrak Late Model events,1 challenge event, and 1 Show-Me Series event, so we are making it even for all. The Show-Me Series has some strong drivers such as Ken Essary, Leslie Essary, Kevin Henson. Rick LeBow, Conner Ward, and Mike Hailman who runs this track very well and many others. With them mixing it up with our local Fastrak Drivers will make for some interesting racing."

Last season the Midway hosted the Fall brawl and paid well over $45,000 in prize money with record number of cars in all classes and a strong grandstand.

"We tried this deal and it worked out good for all involved as the Super Stock winner received $1,000 to win, the Modifieds received $2,000,FactoryStocks were paid $1500,Winged Sprints was 1250 and the Bombers 800 to win. We expect even more cars this season.

Series Founder Ken Essary and crew were happy about being part of the Fall Brawl and this will be a Show-Me Series points race for those drivers.

"The Midway is a fun place to run at, "Quoted Ken Essary. "Other than the Spooker at Fort Smith, this will be one of our highest paying events. It is really close to home base for several of our drivers, and with the Fastrak Cars joining us not only for this race, but a couple of others, we will have a good feel for each other."
