Current Springfield Raceway USRA Modified point leader Jody Tillman took the lead from outside pole setter Brian Green on the opening lap and kicked it in high gear in a dominating performance Saturday Night at The "Quick Quarter" of The Springfield Raceway on Indigo Sky Casino Raining Money Night at the races. For the West Branson veteran it was his 2nd feature win of the season. Brian Green looked early to be able to match Tillman but issues forced him to the pits very early. Jim Body stayed in striking distance but could not match Tillman. The real excitement was the battle for 3rd place as Jerry Lankton and James Thompson went door to door for the final 8 laps before Lankton was able to nip the spot at the finish line.

Another 3 wide early action with Carlberg the early leader. Keepper was quietly moving forward and came out of nowhere to take the top spot and holding back Mullins to get his 1st win of the season. Early contender Lankton got caught-up in a late race contact pack racing and pulled to the infield ending a possible top 5 finish. Kyle Bates was consistent and in a tight pack racing all night. Picking his spots and moves resulted in a top 3 run and Jack Moad returns. The former B Mod front runner who has been away for several season came from deep in the field.
