Rookie of the year contender Cooper Williams remains steady in the championship by rounding out the current podium placement.

Elwin, IL driver Alan Crowder, a longtime veteran at the track, leads the point standings in the Red’s Place DIRTcar Modified division, taking four top fives in five starts. Jeremy Nichols is second in points, while Tim Luttrell, Austin Lynn, and Jeff Graham complete the top five. The division has been newly renamed Red’s
Place is the gaming room located at the newly constructed Billingsley 66 Travel Center in Harristown, IL.

Rounding out Saturday’s action will be the DIRTcar Street Stock class. At Macon Speedway, Bobby Beiler has been the man to beat, winning three out of four features this season. Terry Reed is right behind him in the standings, however, despite a stretch of bad racing luck. Jaret Duff, Brad Peters, and Brian Dasenbrock complete the top five in the current standings.
