Wing/Non-Wing Sprint Double Header at Creek County Speedway Has New Purse Structure


By John Rittenoure

TULSA, Okla. (June 19, 2008) - The second OCRS wing/non-wing double header of the season will take place at Creek County Speedway on Saturday, June 28.
Racing fans will see two complete sprint shows with added money and double points on the line.
The OCRS sanctioned event will start with the sprinters running a complete show of heats and features with their win wings on. The sprint teams then will head to the pits to remove their wings in preparation to run another complete show, this time without wings.
Drivers will re-draw for the second set of heat races and each feature event will be lined up by passing points earned in the heat races. Each show will count toward OCRS points which means the night will count as two complete shows. The winged portion of the show will also count toward Creek County Speedway points.
The points earned from the two A features will be combined to determine an overall finish. The overall winner will earn $1,400. The race will pay $300 to start and $150 to non-qualifiers. The payoff is as follows:
1,400, 900, 700, 600, 550, 500, 450, 400, 300 (9-20). Non-qualifiers earn $150. In case of a tie in the overall finish the passing points earned in the two features will be added together as a tie breaker. If a tie still exists then the prize money for the two spots in question will be added together and split.

For many drivers it will be their first time running without wings. Racing without the down force of the wings puts a premium on driver experience to control the car. Fans will see the sprinters get more sideways in the corners without the force of the wings.

On Friday, June 27, the OCRS will return to Outlaw Motor Speedway located just south of Muskogee for a 8 p.m. show before traveling to Creek County Speedway for the wing/non-wing event. On Saturday, July 5, the OCRS will pay their first visit of the season to Tri-State Speedway in Pocola, Okla. which is near Fort Smith, Ark.
