Officials with the Lucas Oil Speedway, the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, and the Lucas Oil MLRA have announced that the 13th annual CMH Diamond Nationals presented by Super Clean will expand to two nights (July 13-14), with $15,000-to-win Late Model features both nights.
 
The added program and increased purse (an increase of over $7,500 from the original July 13 feature that was to pay $12,000-to-win) is to help fill the void of the canceled 27th Annual Lucas Oil Show-Me 100 presented by ProtectTheHarvest.com. Additionally, each non-transfer will receive $200 both nights.

"We looked at all our options for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, the Lucas Oil MLRA, for Lucas Oil Speedway, and for our television partners and feel this is the best option for everyone," said Danny Lorton, Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager.
 
Severe weather damaged the Lucas Oil Speedway complex on May 20 and forced cancellation of the Show-Me 100, which has been a traditional Memorial Day Weekend event that's been held at the track since 2010.

The expanded Diamond Nationals sets up a blockbuster stretch of events for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series. The nation's elite drivers will compete in eight action-packed events in just 10 days, with over $500,000 up for grabs.

Those who purchased tickets or camping spots to the Show-Me 100 will receive refunds.
