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.
