GREENWOOD, Neb. (September 3) - For the first time in the 22 year history of the Lucas Oil MLRA, a single driver has 100 wins. Springfield, Missouri's Terry Phillips achieved this milestone Friday September 3rd, 2010 at I-80 Speedway in Greenwood, Nebraska. Phillips passed race leader Brad Looney at lap 17 and never looked back.

The 30 lap feature started with a tough battle on the front row with Henderson, Colorado's Kelly Boen and Republic, Missouri's Brad Looney. Boen spun, sending him to the back of the field after causing the first caution of the night. Boen was able to work his way back into the top ten before having motor issues and leaving the track before the checkers. Omaha, Nebraska's John Anderson made a charge for the lead late in the race after passing Looney for second. Anderson briefly passed Phillips before sliding back in to second position where he finished the race. With rear-end problems Brad Looney was able to hold on for a third place finish. Dave Eckrich and Al Purkey battled neck in neck for the seventh position, Purkey was able to secure the spot, but not the points lead.

Phillip's Don Babb Motorsports GRT Racing Chassis is powered by a Hatfield Racing Engine with sponsorship support from Andy's Frozen Custard, New Vision Graphics, Integra Racing Shocks, and Port City Racing.

The Lucas Oil MLRA points championship standings continue to tighten with only six points separating the top three drivers. Dave Eckrich holds a two point lead over six time MLRA points champion, Al Purkey. Sitting only four points back in third position is Brad Looney.

Complete and updated Lucas Oil MLRA Points standings will be available at www.mlraracing.com.

Saturday night September 4, the MLRA will travel south from I-80 Speedway to Heartland Park Topeka in Topeka, Kansas.
