John Rittenoure - TULSA, Okla. (May 3, 2021) - Four weeks ago the Complete Well Testing Sooner Late Model Series invaded 81 Speedway and Nebraska driver Josh Leonard dropped in and topped a field of 24 late models in the 25-lap A-Feature.
Saturday the Sooner Series returns to 81 Speedway for another round of door-to-door battle on the fast 3/8’s mile oval.
Three-time defending champion Kip Hughes became the seasons first repeat winner with his victory last week at Enid Speedway. However, he is still chasing points leader Hayden Ross who continues to hold the down the top spot, despite not having a win after six events.
At Enid Hughes and Ross battled for second position early on while chasing leader John Herring. But Hughes won the battle for the lead and Ross followed and finished in second place.
Ross has five top five finishes coming into Saturday’s program. HIs only non-top five finish came April 10 at 81 Speedway where he finished 11th. Hughes was third in that event.
Racing at 81 Speedway begins at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
