Big day Sunday at Lemoore Raceway as Central Valley Mini Stocks welcome guests

Takeuchi, a veteran racing announcer, plans to be at Super Modified venues throughout California. He was known as one of the best announcers in the sport. He took great pride in doing his research on the racers so that he could let the fans know some interesting facts and statistics about each driver. He even writes articles for various publications.

These days, Takeuchi still announces the occasional race for the Legends of Kearney Bowl Super Modifieds. Several of those Vintage Super Modified cars will be on display for the fans to see on Sunday afternoon. Many of these cars have been restored and were raced years ago. The owners take great pride in keeping these cars in pristine condition.

When it comes racing action, the Baronian brothers currently sit atop the championship standings. Greg Baronian holds a 34-point advantage over Rod Baronian. Rod held off Greg to win the season opener. The margin is much closer between second and third as Dan Myrick trails Rod by just eight points. Myrick has been slowly getting his car dialed in and hopes to get his first feature win of the season on Sunday. He may need that with Ryan Doglione just five points behind him in fourth. Dan's father, reigning champion Danny Myrick, is only 10 points out of third.

The Mini Stocks will run a program that calls for qualifying on the clock, followed by a Trophy Dash, heat races, Semi-Main (if needed) and Main Event. Other drivers anticipated for Sunday include Jeff Durant, Chris Goldsmith, Ben Davis, Randy Brown Jr. and Scott Glenn. Word is there will be some visitors coming from out of town as well.

If that's not enough, there will be 50/50 drawings for various raffle prizes throughout the afternoon. For further information, go to www.centralvalleyministocks.com, or check out the group's Facebook page.
