WHEATLAND, MO. (June 25, 2006) - A crowd of over 2500 fans watched as 110 competitors raced for starting spots in the A Features during the first night of weekly racing at the Lucas Oil Speedway.

With the heat races complete, a short intermission was planned before B Features and the A’s but Mother Nature had other plans. A light rain started. Track officials quickly took a look at radar; the unexpected shower would pass through the area in 20 to 30 minutes. So, the decision to keep vehicles on the track through the rain and then rework the track and finish the night’s events. Fans found cover at the Diamond Bar, the Diamond Café, Track Treasures gift shop and the Speedway Dining area.

The rains came to a stop, Gary Hubert and his track crew went to work on the track and the racers prepared there cars for the Feature events.

The Limited Late Model feature was won by Kevin Kaiser, Cole Camp. Kevin was thrilled and commented, “I have never won anything in my life” celebrating his first ever Feature win in Victory lane. Then there was a series repeat winners and Eric Turner, Hermitage, won his second Factory Stock Feature. Scott Drake, Webb City, won his second Modified feature and Sheldon Stoufer, Camdenton, also took his second feature of the season in the Pure Stock division. Jeff Miller of Heritage won the B- Mod Feature. The real crow pleaser was the new Outlaw Figure 8 class. Chris Tonoli of Hermitage put on a clinic for the new class and drivers but in the end it was Wilbur Segar from Warsaw, who was awarded the win.
