Billy Moyer (21), Jeff Taylor (5) and Wendell Wallace (88) take it
three-wide in the early running of the 12th annual Show-Me 100 at
West Plains, MO.
Runner-up Billy Moyer (21) had to deal with strong contender Jeff
Taylor (5) who timed in third and won a heat before having a flat tire
saddling him with a 12th place finish.
Typical Show-Me 100 action pits Darrell Lanigan (29) versus Skip Arp
(31) and Bill Frye (25th) in a three-way tussle.
Dan Schlieper (9) was able to withstand the onslaught of past event
winner Wendell Wallace (88) to take third in this year's Show-Me 100.
Shannon Babb (18) moves ahead of Steve Francis (15) to grab the final
top-five spot in the Show-Me 100 as Francis found his way home 7th.
This kind of action keeps the fans coming back to West Plains year
after year as here Peyton Taylor (6t), Don O'Neal (71), Ray Cook (53)
and Skip Arp (31) provide the turn-four entertainment.
Scott Bloomquist (0) did manage to lead the 12th Show-Me 100
flag-to-flag, but not without withstanding the constant challenges of
Billy Moyer (21). With the triumph, Bloomquist joins Moyer as the
only three-time champions of the premier event.
Rick Eckert (24) pulls alongside fellow Rocket Chassis campaigner
Steve Francis (15) to eventually take the sixth spot away in the 2004
version of the nation's first mega DLM show, the Show-Me 100.
Scott Bloomquist streaks his way toward the checkers in the 2004
version of the Show-Me 100 to take home his third career triumph in
the event and pocket a whopping $38,000!
Scott Bloomquist, family, crew and friends share in the celebration atop
the victory stand at West Plains Motor Speedway following his third
career win in the famed Show-Me 100.
Scott Bloomquist beat the rain and 86 other competitors to take his
third career Show-Me 100 triumph tying him atop the list of career
wins in the event with Billy Moyer at three each.
