The Southern Iowa Speedway welcomes back the USMTS Modifieds on Wednesday for the 7th Annual Musco Lighting Southern Iowa Challenge. It will be the 32nd time the series has visited the historic Mahaska County Monster.
Gustin won the last time when the series invaded the semi-banked 1/2-mile oval on May 26, but Shryock owns the most wins here with 11 triumphs to his credit – the last of which came in August 2006.
Although the 2010 season has been a lackluster one for Brad Pinkerton, the local favorite has won three of the last six events at Osky and four overall. Two-time winners at the Southern Iowa Speedway include Krohn, Myer, John Van Den Berg and Chris Spieker. Drivers with one win include Al Hejna, Hughes, Zack VanderBeek, Mark Noble, Bruce Hanford, Dan Bohr and Tony Fraise.
Also on tap at Oskaloosa will be the Dart Iron Man Challenge for USRA Karl Chevrolet Stock Cars competing in their next-to-last event of the 2010 season. USRA B-Mods and USRA Hobby Stocks will also be on the racing card.
Gates open at 5:30, hot laps begin at 7:15 and racing starts at 7:30.
