Ken Schrader takes UMP Modified victory at I-55 Raceway.

Pevely, MO (July 7, 2007) Kenny Schrader returned to I-55 Raceway for the third time with his U.M.P. Modified and picked up his second feature win. Schrader won his qualifying heat race but the slipped back during the dash and ended up starting the feature event from the fifth position. He immediately began his charge toward the front once the green flag fell and moved past early race leader Bobby Martintoni on lap nine. Schrader would lead the rest of the way to pick up the victory. Martintoni would have his hands full with Paul Bauman as the two battled for the second position the final five laps, but Martintoni would hold on. Mark Miner would cross the line in fourth behind Bauman and Scott Weber completed the top five.

The main event got off to a rough start as eight cars got together down the front stretch sending them crashing into the inside retaining wall going into turn one. Five cars were too damaged to continue including the point leader at I-55 Raceway in the UMP Modified division Bobby Bittle.
