Ameri-Flex / OCRS Tour Goes To Lawton For Final Time Saturday

 

John Lemon
OCRS Public Relations

Tulsa OK (July 26, 2016) - The third and final trek down Interstate 44 into the deep southwestern part of Oklahoma will take place this Saturday as the Ameri-Flex / OCRS sprint car tour makes its final appearance of 2016 at the Lawton Speedway. Waiting for the invaders will be the Lawton Speedway stalwarts looking to defend their home track.

While series regulars Sheldon Barksdale and Robert Sellers have taken the first two events on the 1/4-mile track in 2016, it was the third event of 2015 when local driver Cody Wampler of Walters Oklahoma took it to the travelers when he pulled off the upset to win one for the home team.

Homies such as Kyle Ezell (5-time Lawton winner in 2016), Joe Bob Lee, Shawn Bloomquist, TJ Herrell, Koby Barksdale, Morgan Fletcher and Jerry Bruner look to make trouble for the Ameri-Flex / OCRS gang. Gary Owens, who splits time between Lawton and the Ameri-Flex / OCRS series is a strong force to be reckoned with as well.

In addition to Barksdale and R. Sellers, the series will send the likes of Shane Sellers, Johnny Kent, Shayla Waddell, Cameron Hagin and Perry Pickard along with series points leader Zach Chappell and last weekends winner Whit Gastineau for the call to action among others.

Gates will open at 5:30pm. Racing action will start at 8:30pm

 

Nutz n' Boltz

43 - 8 - 3 - 1:
After last weekends action at Oklahoma Sports Park, only 43 points separate 3 drivers for the lone Harold Leep Championship Trophy with just 8 races remaining. Zach Chappell, Whit Gastineau and Robert Sellers are all embattled. With 2 missed events, Sheldon Barksdale is 146 points from being the leader. He will need to keep his hot streak alive and get some help from the trio he's chasing to steal a title. Will 8 races be enough to fight his way through?

Saw Checkers Again:
Perry Pickard of Edmond Oklahoma won his third career heat race when he went wire to wire in the Drive Shaft Inc. Heat at Oklahoma Sports Park this past Saturday. Pickard won his first heat race in 2014 and won his second earlier this season at the Salina Highbanks Speedway. Heat racing figured out, Pickard is now hunting for that elusive A-Feature score. It will be a wild victory lane the day he breaks through. Count on that.

Part Time Racer - Full Time Winner:
Gary Owens has yet to run a full schedule with the Ameri-Flex / OCRS series as he averages about 6 events a year. In 2015, Owens found 10 dates to come out and play with the series. Should Owens win an A-Feature with the remaining events left, he will extend his streak to four years in a row with victory lane hardware. The ratio of races entered to wins collected make Owens one of the serious threats to win each time out.

Wanna Get Paid? - Look This Way:
Last week, the officials of the Ameri-Flex / OCRS series and the Salina Highbanks Speedway increased the purse for the August 20th date at the fastest track on the schedule. The winner of that event will now bank $1500. Add all the remaining events on the schedule (including this weeks event at the Lawton Speedway) and there is $16,500 on the table for just the winners! This excludes any lap money to be earned at the Harold Leep Classic where over $1200 can be pocketed. All this makes for an average of just under $2,000 per victory to close out the season. Anyone have a spare deposit slip?

Thank You Fans:
In a world where auto racing at all levels are working feverishly to succeed, multiple promoters along the Ameri-Flex / OCRS trail have informed series officials that their crowds have been some of the best of the season when the series came calling. We wish to say "Thank You" to all the fans that support our series and the venues of which we travel. Your participation will have a lot to say about the future of our sport.
