Drivers, fans anxious to resume racing at Central Missouri Speedway


WARRENSBURG, Mo.--After a pair of back-to-back weather cancellations drivers and fans are eager for CMS to return to action for another round of championship racing this Saturday night. Last week was a go until just after noon when a persistent shower settled in over the track and spoiled the evening’s program.

Competitors in the USRA Modifieds, Street Stocks, Lightning Sprints, B-Mods, and Pure Stocks will all run a full program of preliminary heat races and main events during Cliff Harris Warrensburg Ford, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram night at the speedway.
