RAMS title still on the line

FREDERICKTOWN, Mo. -- (July 25, 2003) Fifteen-year-old Mike Meyer once again made it a four-person chase towards the RAMS Points Series championship on Friday night as he pulled off a triple crown (winning the feature, the trophy dash and his heat race) at the Fredericktown Raceway.

The win was his first-ever feature win with the RAMS (Racing Association of Mini Stocks).

Despite his outstanding effort, Point Series leader Dave "The Wolf" Wofford of Farmington also turned in a good effort as did Rick Ruch of Perryville who was just a few points shy of the lead himself going into the night. Marty Boyer of Potosi kept his title hopes alive by finishing fifth in the feature on Friday night.
