Ransomville, NY –
Friday, July 18, 2008 – A total of one hundred and seven
cars signed in pitside last Friday night for the 12th

as temps were in the 90’s at race time.

Lucas Oil Modified Shoot-out thirty-five lap main. Burley
took the lead away from Jeff McGinnis on lap twenty and was

NY became the thirteenth different winner in the Ki-Po

but checked out on the field. Just prior to the first

lead. Close held off persistent challenges in the final laps
by Webb Nashwinter for the win. Nashwinter came home in
second followed by Boots Martin, Stuart Kumm, and Chris
Burek.
