Track owners and promoters Earl and Susan Walls have decided to cancel all weekend activities at Warrensburg’s Central Missouri Speedway due to already saturated grounds and continued cool and wet temperatures.  The track’s second practice session, which was scheduled for this Saturday, April 12th is unfortunately not the only cancellation for this weekend.  For the second year in a row the track’s pre-season car show has also been cancelled.  CMS would like to thank all the drivers who had notified us they were going to bring their cars to put on display.  Stay tuned for further information regarding the “best in show awards.” 

 There is still one more opportunity for drivers to shake down their race machines prior to the season officially getting underway.  An evening practice will be held next Saturday, April 19th.  Pit gates will open at 5PM with the practice session hitting the track at 7PM.  Pit passes will cost $15; however, spectators will get in free to the grandstand area on the backstretch.  There will be a limited item snack bar available for both pit and grandstand attendees. 

The CMS/Kenny’s Tile and Floor Covering official season kicks off Saturday, April 26th with the ‘Mighty’ Modifieds, ULMA Late Models, Street Stocks, and B-Modifieds taking to the track for their 20-week championship season.  For up-to-the-minute information concerning track operations call the track report line at (660) 747-2166 or visit the track’s Website at www.centralmissourispeedway.net.  We’ll see you all next Saturday night!
