5.17.14 USMTS Modifieds Results
ARDMORE, Okla.—Stormy Scott made it three in a row Saturday night as the USMTS Casey’s Cup powered by Swan Energy invaded the Southern Oklahoma Speedway for the third and final night of a tripleheader in the Sooner State.
Louisiana’s Cade Dillard drew the pole position and set the pace for three laps before Scott, who started seventh, blasted into the top spot on the 3/8-mile high-banked clay oval.
With the previous two nights as a history lesson, some may have headed for the parking lot to beat the traffic at this point but Johnny Scott, who started next to Stormy Scott in the fourth row, tracked down his older twin brother and seized control of the race with 15 laps in the books.
Never losing sight of the leader, however, Stormy Scott found his preferred line around the track and regained the lead eight laps later.
From there, the 2012 USMTS Rookie of the Year sailed comfortably to his third $2,000 payday in as many nights and his 25th win overall in a little more than two years of competition in the United States Modified Touring Series.
Johnny Scott remained second at the end of the 40-lapper, defending USMTS national champion Rodney Sanders finished third for the second straight night, Dillard held on for fourth to match his effort on Thursday night and Cody Smith rounded out the top five.
Chris Dawson was sixth, Kelly Shryock finished seventh, David Winslett earned an eighth-place finish, Bobby Malchus nabbed ninth and Tom Tillison Jr. completed the top 10.
Shryock, who started 19th on the 26-car grid, netted the Mesilla Valley Transportation Hard Charger Award for his efforts.
With the win, Stormy Scott unseated Sanders as the points leader and kept his hopes alive for a $100,000 payoff at season’s end if he can win all four regions and the Hunt for the USMTS Casey’s Cup powered by Swan Energy.
The regional champion will be determined June 20-29 when the rugged USMTS road warriors compete in eight events over the course of ten nights.
Up next is a Major League Bowhunter Central Region tilt on Wednesday, May 21, at the Cedar County Raceway in Tipton, Iowa—a do-over from a rained-out event last month. From there, the series rattles off four straight shows during the Memorial Day Weekend to kick off the Farm Boy BBQ Sauce Northern Region presented by Day Motor Sports.
