The Lucas Oil Speedway Budweiser Weekly Series event features the ALPS Food Stores ULMA Late Models, the Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds, the Carson's Corner Napa Factory Stocks, and the Tri-Lakes RV USRA B-Mods.

The Carson's Corner Napa Factory Stocks will be running a special 25 Lap, $500 to win Main Event.

With just one ALPS Food Store ULMA Late Model event in the books, Henley, Missouri's Justin Russell sits on top of the points standings by virtue of his opening night win on April 25th. Fulton, Missouri's Dustin Hodges and Barnett, Missouri driver Todd McCoin are tied for second, just 10 points out of first. Former Track Champion Tommy Cordray out of Browning, Missouri sits in fourth with El Dorado Springs Veteran Larry Jones rounding out the top-5.

Defending Pitts Homes USRA Modified Champion Jeff Cutshaw has once again shown that he is a force to be reckoned with in 2015 as he sits atop the points standings early in the young season. Sedalia's Terry Schultz, also a former Speedway Track Champion is only nine points out of the top spot. Clark, Missouri's Matt Dotson sits solidly in third, 16 points out of first. Louisburg, Kansas' Lance Town and Appleton City's Johnny Fennewald sit fourth and fifth respectively.

Camdenton, Missouri's Kenny Carroll is hoping to dig a ditch and hide from the competition in the battle for the championship standings in the Carson's Corner Napa Auto Parts Factory Stocks with 2 wins in 3 starts so far in 2015. Joplin's Johnny Coats opened the season with a win in early April and holds down the second spot, 16 points behind Carroll. Wheatland's Chip Shaddox and 2014 Factory Stock Champion David Hendrix are deadlocked for third with 148 points each, just 26 out of first. Eldon's Steve Beach is keeping close tabs on the leaders in fifth.

It's no surprise that 3-time and defending USRA B-Mod Track Champion Kris Jackson leads the field in the B-Mods again so far in 2015 but Richland, Missouri's Tyler Brown aims to unseat the Champ as Tyler sits just 5 points out of first in the second spot. Columbia's Christopher Cain also sits close to the top as he occupies the third position, only 9 points behind Jackson. Wheatland's Mike Streigel has been stout in the early going as the former race official and part-time amateur body main/plumber holds down fourth. Kaeden Cornell out of Willard, Missouri holds down the final spot in the top five.
