Schultz, Striegel score Casey's Night wins at Lucas Oil Speedway


WHEATLAND, Mo.—Despite more than ten inches of rain the previous two days and threatening skies throughout the day, a huge crowd turned out for Casey's General Stores Thursday Night Thunder presented by KY3 as Terry Schultz and Mike Striegel scored main event wins. AM Pyrotechnics provided a great fireworks display to wrap up the evening to kick off the Independence Day weekend.

Sedalia's Terry Schultz and West Plains's Logan Martin led the field to the green flag from the front row in the Pitts Homes USRA Modifieds but it was all Schultz on this night as he methodically navigated the demanding track conditions to capture the 20-lap main event win. Hermitage's Eric Turner started third and finished in the second spot with Martin sliding back to third in the final rundown. Jason Russell started fourth and finished in fourth with Bolivar's Jeff Cutshaw finishing in fifth.

The USRA B-Mods were the last event out and it provided the best race of the night as Wheatland's Mike Striegel battled Lebanon's Kris Jackson throughout the race as the pair sliced and diced at the front of the field. Striegel finally charged ahead and took the win as the "Wheatland Outlaw" also celebrated his birthday with the win. Jackson settled for second at the finish after starting in sixth. Marshfield's Sam Petty powered his way to third after starting all the way back in 17th. Liberty's Gregg Truelove finished in fourth with Willard's Kaeden Cornell rounding out the top five.

There will be no racing at Lucas Oil Speedway this Saturday, July 4, as we celebrate the holiday weekend with family and friends.

Lucas Oil Speedway will be back in action next Saturday and Sunday, July 11th-12th as the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series and the Lucas Oil MLRA storm back to town for the 9th Annual CMH Diamond Nationals on Saturday and the make-up finale of the 23rd Annual Lucas Oil Show-Me 100 Presented by ProtectTheHarvest.com on Sunday.
