At the conclusion of the night’s events, Shadren Turner collected the B-Mod victory while Dave Meyer took top honors in Super Stocks. Spencer Reiff was the Pure Stock winner while Dakota Girard drove to the Midwest Mods victory.

POWRi B-Mod – 19 Entries
Heat 1 – 8 Laps | 00:03:26.110: 1. 12C-Stephen Clancy[2]; 2. 57-Chad Clancy[5]; 3. 29-Tyler Cochran[4]; 4. 7-Anthony Tanner[3]; 5. 20-Blake Wimmer[1]; 6. 447-Kenny Prince[6]; 7. 12H-Michael Hoover[7]

Heat 2 – 8 Laps | 00:05:18.745: 1. 55-Colson Kirk[2]; 2. J2-Kris Jackson[6]; 3. 05-Jeremy Lile[1]; 4. 7B-Shad Badder[5]; 5. 90-Terry Schultz[3]; 6. (DNF) 61-Sturgis Streeter[4]

Heat 3 – 8 Laps | 00:03:21.626: 1. 56-Shadren Turner[3]; 2. 1K-Tim Karrick[2]; 3. 549-Patrick Royalty[1]; 4. 12-Parker Smith[4]; 5. 15-Colin Pierce[5]; 6. 15J-Jake Fetterman[6]

Shadren Turner and Kris Jackson captured front row starting honors for the 20-lap B-Mod main event. At the start of the race, promoter Earl Walls told the drivers, “It’s a drivers track, if you all run flag-to-flag, I’ll buy you two beers.” Normally, he says he’ll buy them “a beer,” so the drivers were apparently up to the challenge. Turner looked strong from the onset, but Stephen Clancy stayed close to the leader during the race’s opening stages. At lap nine, Turner led Clancy, Colson Kirk, Tim Karrick, and Jeremy Lile. As the leaders continued their blistering pace, lapped cars came into play as Clancy challenged Turner by lap 12. The drivers were in a groove the entire race and all of them raced at the top of their game as the race went green to checkers in 6 minutes and 44 seconds! Turner took the win, his third career win at CMS and first of the year at the track. Clancy turned in a strong run to second, followed by Kirk, Karrick, and Chad Clancy in the top five.

A Feature – 20 Laps | 00:06:44.334
1. 56-Shadren Turner[1]; 2. 12C-Stephen Clancy[3]; 3. 55-Colson Kirk[4]; 4. 1K-Tim Karrick[6]; 5. 57-Chad Clancy[5]; 6. 7B-Shad Badder[10]; 7. 549-Patrick Royalty[9]; 8. 12-Parker Smith[12]; 9. 90-Terry Schultz[14]; 10. 7-Anthony Tanner[11]; 11. 15J-Jake Fetterman[17]; 12. 447-Kenny Prince[16]; 13. 15-Colin Pierce[15]; 14. 05-Jeremy Lile[8]; 15. 20-Blake Wimmer[13]; 16. 29-Tyler Cochran[7]; 17. 12H-Michael Hoover[18]; 18.

POWRi Super Stocks – 17 Entries
Heat 1 – 8 Laps | 00:05:34.814: 1. 10-Marc Carter[2]; 2. 04-Blaine Ewing[4]; 3. 21W-Ted Welschmeyer[5]; 4. 45-Aaron Poe[6]; 5. 00-Cory Flamm[1]; 6. (DNF) 44-James Nighswonger[3]

Heat 2 – 8 Laps | 00:03:34.170: 1. 67-Devin Irvin[1]; 2. 25-Jay Prevete[2]; 3. 164-Michael Muskrat[4]; 4. 116-Zack Smith[3]; 5. 83K-Denny Fitzpatrick[6]; 6. 77-Daniel McKenzie[5]
Heat 3 – 8 Laps | 00:03:39.338: 1. 9-Dave Meyer[4]; 2. 25X-Rodger Detherage[2]; 3. 27-John Brooks[1]; 4. 49-Jay Lamons[5]; 5. 30K-Cameron Kelly[3]

Longtime CMS veterans Dave Meyer and Marc Carter took top starting honors for the 20-lap Super Stock main event. The super slick conditions proved challenging for the super stock drivers as several cautions slowed the field, ultimately leading to a time limit ending to the race. Early on, Meyer showed the way over a close battle for second among Marc Carter and Blaine Ewing. Devin Irvin, Ted Welschmeyer, and Aaron Poe ran strong early to advance forward behind the lead duo by lap eight. At the halfway point, Meyer narrowly led over Welschmeyer and as the pair were battling for the lead with Welschmeyer trying for the pass on the low side entering turn three, Welschmeyer got the worst end of things as his car contacted the utility tire on the low side drawing a caution and had to retire from the race. Unfortunately, Irvin was caught up in the mess and was relegated to the tail of the field for the restart. Meyer held on after a hard charge from Carter and Blaine, until these two drivers were also involved in an incident with Ewing going to the back on the restart. At lap 16, the time limit was met, and the race was cut short with Meyer collecting the win, his 39th career CMS victory. Poe advanced from tenth to second with Carter finishing a strong third, despite left front wheel damage. Michael Muskrat turned in a solid run to fourth while Rodger Detherage claimed his best finish of the year in fifth.

A Feature – 20 Laps | 00:22:13.158: 1. 9-Dave Meyer[1]; 2. 45-Aaron Poe[10]; 3. 10-Marc Carter[2]; 4. 164-Michael Muskrat[8]; 5. 25X-Rodger Detherage[6]; 6. 00-Cory Flamm[14]; 7. 77-Daniel McKenzie[16]; 8. 27-John Brooks[9]; 9. 44-James Nighswonger[17]; 10. 67-Devin Irvin[3]; 11. 04-Blaine Ewing[4]; 12. 30K-Cameron Kelly[15]; 13. 25-Jay Prevete[5]; 14. (DNF) 21W-Ted Welschmeyer[7]; 15. (DNF) 83K-Denny Fitzpatrick[13]; 16. (DNF) 116-Zack Smith[12]; 17. (DNF) 49-Jay Lamons[11]

Pure Stocks – 13 Entries
Heat 1 – 8 Laps | 00:05:05.092: 1. 7-Spencer Reiff[2]; 2. 81-Donnie Devers[5]; 3. 403-Darrin Christy[6]; 4. 4-Braxton Lamons[7]; 5. 08-Scott Pullen[4]; 6. 75-Brady Tanner[3]; 7. (DNS) MRS01-Kristina Wyatt

Heat 2 – 8 Laps | 00:06:09.097: 1. 24-Bobby Russell[4]; 2. 4D-David Doelz[3]; 3. M87-Mallory Stiffler[1]; 4. 98-RIchard Jameson[2]; 5. 26-Zachary McDowell[5]; 6. 21M-Payton McDowell[6]

Bobby Russell and Spencer Reiff, the two drivers that have dominated the Pure Stock competition so far this season began the 20-lap main event from row. Russell took the early lead with Reiff, David Doelz, and Donnie Devers inside the top four. At the lap eight point, Reiff closed in on Russell for the lead, while Doelz and Braxton Lamons battled behind them. Just passed the halfway point, Reiff moved to the high side to make a pass for the lead just as the yellow flag flew to slow the field. Reiff then led Russell, Doelz, Richard Jameson, and Devers. After one more restart at lap 16, Reiff kept his machine out front and found himself in victory lane for the third time this season. Russell finished second ahead of a solid performance by Braxton Lamons in third, Devers was fourth while Doelz finished fifth.

A Feature – 20 Laps | 00:12:44.491: 1. 7-Spencer Reiff[2]; 2. 24-Bobby Russell[1]; 3. 4-Braxton Lamons[6]; 4. 81-Donnie Devers[3]; 5. 4D-David Doelz[4]; 6. 08-Scott Pullen[9]; 7. 98-RIchard Jameson[8]; 8. M87-Mallory Stiffler[7]; 9. 21M-Payton McDowell[12]; 10. 75-Brady Tanner[11]; 11. (DNF) 403-Darrin Christy[5]; 12. (DNF) 26-Zachary McDowell[10]; 13. (DNS) MRS01-Kristina Wyatt

POWRi Midwest Mods – 12 Entries
Heat 1 – 8 Laps | 00:02:37.432: 1. 0-Dakota Girard[1]; 2. 26-Devin Wetzel[2]; 3. 16-Matthew Kay[5]; 4. 17-Logan Roark[4]; 5. 82-David Wood[6]; 6. (DNS) 17R-Earl Roark

Heat 2 – 8 Laps | 00:05:19.678: 1. 5D-Dustin Dennison[3]; 2. 059-Jamie Aleshire[1]; 3. 9-Brian Meyer[6]; 4. 41-Alex Schultz[2]; 5. 32M-Marcus Feuerstein[5]; 6. (DNF) 16P-Caleb Potter[4]

The front row starting positions went to Dustin Dennison and last week’s winner Dakota Girard for the 20-lap Midwest Mods main event. After a pair of early race cautions, drivers settled into a solid rhythm for the remainder of the 20-lap race as Girard, Dennison, and Brian Meyer led the field around the speedway. For the final 15 laps, the Midwest Mods drivers battle for positions behind Girard, who was looking for his second CMS win of the season. Meanwhile, Meyer, Dennison, and Matthew Kay all ran strong inside the top four. Girard once again proved too strong for the rest of the field as he took his second CMS win of the year. Brian Meyer turned in his strongest performance of the season for second with Dennison in third. Kay and Logan Roark rounded out the top five at the conclusion of the race.

A Feature – 20 Laps | 00:12:27.970: 1. 0-Dakota Girard[2]; 2. 9-Brian Meyer[3]; 3. 5D-Dustin Dennison[1]; 4. 16-Matthew Kay[6]; 5. 17-Logan Roark[7]; 6. 059-Jamie Aleshire[5]; 7. 82-David Wood[9]; 8. 26-Devin Wetzel[4]; 9. 41-Alex Schultz[8]; 10.

Missouri Democrats vow to fight increased taxes on sales or services

Missouri Democrats vow to fight increased taxes on sales or services

Jason Hancock and Steph Quinn
| Missouri Independent

Missouri lawmakers returned to work Wednesday, Jan. 7, to kick off the 2026 legislative session, with Republicans determined to eliminate the state income tax and Democrats vowing to oppose any effort to replace it with increased taxes on sales or services.

Missing from the first day were the partisan fireworks that defined the end of last year’s session and a special session in September. Instead, both the House and Senate functioned normally on Wednesday, quickly running through motions of a first-day and adjourning with little fanfare.

But the partisan schism simmered under the surface.

Republican Gov. Mike Kehoe is pushing for elimination of the state’s income tax and is expecting to lay out his plan next week when he speaks to a joint session of the legislature for his annual State of the State address.

Democrats — still smarting from last year’s GOP moves to cut off debate to pass bills repealing expanded paid sick leave, gerrymander the state congressional map, change the initiative petition process and reimpose an abortion ban — said they are withholding judgment until they see the details of Kehoe’s plan.

But they note the income tax represents 65% of last year’s $13.4 billion in state revenue.

Democrats will not support raising taxes that disproportionately impact lower-income Missourians to pay to eliminate the income tax, said Senate Minority Leader Doug Beck, an Affton Democrat.

“People are already having a really hard time making ends meet in this state,” Beck said. “People are living paycheck to paycheck. So if anyone wants to raise taxes on those folks, that is unacceptable to us. As Democrats, we say there should be no new taxes.”

House Minority Leader Ashley Aune, a Kansas City Democrat, said that while the possible elimination of the income tax is “being sold as … getting rid of your taxes,” most Missourians will see little benefit.

“What they’re not telling you is how much more you’ll have to spend every time you swipe your card,” Aune said, adding: “The next time you have an expensive car repair or costly emergency visit from a plumber to fix a broken pipe, you’ll also be paying double digit sales taxes on that bill. Struggling to pay your rent? The struggle will get even harder when Republicans add a sales tax onto that.”

Democrats will lay out their own income tax proposal next week, Aune said, that will offer “targeted tax relief for those who need it most.”

State Rep. Mark Boyko, the Kirkwood Democrat who will sponsor the measure, said that while Missourians earning over $250,000 could end up paying more under the Democrats’ tax plan, it would generate much-needed revenue.

The proposal, Boyko said, “will actually lower your costs.”

Senate President Cindy O’Laughlin, a Shelbina Republican, urged her colleagues in an opening day speech to work together to “find solutions that move Missouri forward.”

While tax cuts weren’t directly mentioned in her speech, O’Laughlin left little doubt where she stood.

“Taxes, regulations, red tape and bureaucracy do not make Missouri better,” she said. “In every case, they take from Missouri families, they also take from Missouri small businesses. And our job is to reduce that impact. We must make sure what we take is as limited as possible.”

Missouri families want results, O’Laughlin said.

“They want better roads, better schools,” she said. “They want more private home ownership. They want safe streets and neighborhoods. They want better jobs and stronger job skills. They want thriving communities, and they want less dependence on the government at all levels.”

Hovering over the income tax debate is a state budget picture looking gloomier than it has in years.

General revenue is projected to be $400 million below estimates made a year ago. Part of the reason is that a capital gains tax cut passed last year that was estimated to reduce revenue by $111 million annually is now believed to cost as much as $500 million the first year and $360 million a year moving forward.

Beck said that while Democrats decided against using procedural maneuvers to gum up the Senate on the first day, the chamber will move much more slowly this year — not only in response to last year’s GOP moves quash Democratic filibusters, but also to avoid mistakes like the cost of the capital gains tax cut.

“When you shut off debate or refuse to engage with the other side to just rush things through, mistakes happen,” he said. “We were screaming from the hilltop that the capital gains cuts were going to cost way more. But we went too fast, and senators weren’t allowed to do their jobs.”

Jaland Lowe, Jayden Quaintance to start for Kentucky vs Missouri, per report

Jaland Lowe, Jayden Quaintance to start for Kentucky vs Missouri, per report

Kentucky basketball fans have seemed to have finally gotten their wish. After receiving a lot of pushback for not making a change to the starting lineup, more specifically not starting Jaland Lowe since returning from injury, Mark Pope is making a change. According to KSR’s Jack Pilgrim, both Lowe and Jayden Quaintance will start in Kentucky’s game against Missouri. Pilgrim reports the two will replace Collin Chandler and Malachi Moreno as starters against Missouri, which will make the lineup Jaland Lowe, Denzel Aberdeen, Otega Oweh, Mo Dioubate and Jayden Quaintance.

It’s a long-time coming for Kentucky fans, as since Jaland Lowe has been back from injury on Dec. 5, he hasn’t started a single game. Even in the games before he wasn’t included in Kentucky’s starting lineup. That’s seven games played with zero starts to show for it, with fans constantly wondering why Lowe has continued to come into the games following the first media timeout after Kentucky has already fallen behind. He’s not the only one being included in the lineup change, with Quaintance starting as well. Quaintance made his debut against St. John’s and has since been working to get acclimated after spending nine months returning from an injury. Now, he’s getting the start, too. We haven’t seen the two on the floor together since Kentucky’s second-half surge to beat St. John’s on Dec. 20.

The chatter around the starting lineup questions has mainly centered around Lowe, as he is clearly the engine of this team. When he’s not in, Kentucky sturggles to have any flow, or identity for that matter. Now, the Wildcats have the opportunity to start the game off fresh instead of it being like the last game where Kentucky fell behind 9-5 before Lowe came in. Mark Pope hinted on his radio show Monday that this development with Lowe was coming, saying “starting is in his future” while also noting that they’re continuing to ‘nurse’ him along. Before that, though, during Kentucky’s 10-day break between the Bellarmine and Alabama games, Pope discussed the reason why Jaland Lowe had not been starting:

“We’re trying to limit his contact and exposure so much in practice that, the thinking behind that is like, let’s protect the integrity of the group that we have getting most of the reps in practice to actually be able to go perform on the court, just to give some continuity.” At the time, Pope wasn’t sure if that was the right way to go about it, but it’s something he said they would continue to be thinking about moving forward. “That might not be the right answer. We’re going to kind of explore that as we go. It also gives you a chance to maybe extend his healthy window, which we’re hoping is going to be the entire season, by not being the headline guy at the beginning of a scout.”

Well, those comments from Pope combined with the pushback from fans has now led to Jaland Lowe finally making his first start as a Kentucky Wildcat. Mark Pope now has real chance for his team to build some momentum with two players on the floor together in Lowe and Quaintance who will hopefully be staying on the floor together and consistently moving forward. This development is going to be what Kentucky fans focus on most against Missouri.
