5.16.14 USMTS Modifieds Results
LONGDALE, Okla.—The USMTS Casey’s Cup powered by Swan Energy traveled to a new racetrack for the second straight night, and Stormy Scott came away with his second straight win Friday night at the new Longdale Speedway.
Unlike Thursday night when he had to track down Rodney Sanders and then make the winning pass with eight laps to go, it was just eight laps into the Friday’s 35-lap main event when he blasted past his brother, Johnny Scott, before easily rolling to another $2,000 winner’s paycheck.
It was Stormy Scott’s 24th career United States Modified Touring Series triumph, tying him with his younger twin for seventh on the all-time win list.
Dereck Ramirez chased Stormy Scott for most of the race, but had to deal with Sanders breathing down his neck the whole way and wound up in the runner-up position.
Bryan Rowland was nearby in fourth at the checkered flag with Johnny Scott hanging on for a fifth-place finish.
Chris Dawson clawed his way from 15th on the 26-car starting grid to take sixth and earned the Mesilla Valley Transportation Hard Charger Award while former 2009 USMTS Rookie of the Year Grant Junghans garnered the seventh spot in just his second night behind the wheel since returning to the track.
Eighth was Kip Hughes, Cade Dillard finished in the ninth spot and current USMTS Rookie of the Year points leader Jake Gallardo rounded out the top 10 at the finish line.
The weekend of action wraps up with an explosive finale on Saturday in Ardmore, Okla., at the Southern Oklahoma Speedway. John and Nicky Webb’s semi-banked 3/8-mile clay oval has been the site of some intense thrillers in past years, including the last three races which were won by Johnny Scott, Stormy Scott and Sanders.
Gates open at 5:00, hot laps begin at 6:30 and racing starts at 7:30. Ticket prices are $20 for adults, $15 for kids ages 6-12, $15 for seniors and children ages 5 and under are free. Pit passes are $35. Support classes include Limited Mods and Stock Cars.
The Southern Oklahoma Speedway is located 0.7 mile east of I-35 (exit 29) on US 70, then 1.8 miles south on US 77. For more information call 405-627-1766 or click www.southernoklahomaspeedway.com to visit the track’s official website.
