Even after an afternoon downpour that put the night in jeopardy, Lucas Oil Speedway still salvaged the surface and proved once again why it is called “The Diamond of Dirt Tracks.” Coming from the fourth position, Rico Abreu became the third different leader in Friday’s 30-lapper en route to winning for the first time at the Wheatland, Missouri facility.
Earning the biggest win of his life on Thursday night, Sheboygan, WI native Travis Arenz stunned Kubota High Limit Racing and sent a raucous 141 Speedway crowd into pandemonium. For good measure, he even enjoyed a post-race swim after cashing $26,000 in the Rayce Rudeen Foundation Race – easily the richest payday of his career.
