The Old Paths quartet concert to kick off Rempfer Memorial Championship Night on Saturday at Lucas Oil Speedway

WHEATLAND, MO. (Aug. 23, 2022) - Some special guests will be on hand at Lucas Oil Speedway for Saturday night’s Rempfer Memorial Season Championship Night, both on the track and with pre-race entertainment.

The Old Paths Racing Team, featuring Late Model driver Thomas Langley of Parish, Alabama, is scheduled to compete in the Hermitage Lumber Late Model Division. In addition, The Old Paths quartet from Atlanta, one of the premier gospel groups in the country, will hold a pre-race concert at 5:30 p.m.

The quartet of Tim Rackley, Douglas Roark, Daniel Ashmore and Steve Ladd has multiple No. 1 songs produced and record on the Sonlite/Crossroads label. They will perform at the speedway as part of a tour that includes a concert at Silver Dollar City in Branson on Tuesday, Aug. 30.

Meanwhile, two of the four Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series track championship battles are coming down to the wire on the final points night of the season. The closest race is in the O’Reilly Auto Parts USRA Stock Car division with three drivers in contention. Bryan White of Lebanon clings to a two-point lead over Mason Beck of Urbana with Lebanon’s Rob White just 12 points behind.

The Cedar Creek Beef Jerky USRA Modifieds also is hotly contested with Dillon McCowan of Urbana leading Centralia’s Dustin Hodges by 17 points as McCowan attempts to win back-to-back championships.

Kris Jackson of Lebanon can clinch his seventh Lucas Oil Speedway championship in the Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mods with a solid finish. Jackson is 30 points in front of Springfield’s Ryan Gillmore after the duo ran 1-2 last week.

The Hermitage Lumber Late Model division sees the largest gap as Larry Ferris of Nevada is 93 points in front of Jefferson City’s Tucker Cox after Ferris’ fourth feature win on Saturday.

The program is named to honor Harold "Rowdy" Rempfer and his wife, Julia, who were killed in an automobile accident four years ago. Rowdy was the mayor of Wheatland and he and Julia both worked at Lucas Oil Speedway.

Final Kids' Power Wheel races: The final round of Kids' Power Wheel racing is set for Saturday during intermission with a season champion crowned in each class.
