MEEKER, Okla. (October 21, 2024) The rematch between the ASCS Elite Non-Wing Series presented by Abilene Powder Coating and the USAC Amsoil Sprint Car National Championship, the two wingless tours will converge on Red Dirt Raceway on Friday, October 25, and Saturday, October 26.
Championship weekend for both tours, the title fight in USAC competition extended to 84 points between Logan Seavey and Brady Bacon following Seavey's 14th victory of the season during Lawrenceburg Speedway's Fall Nationals on October 12.
In a 41-point game for the ASCS Elite Non-Wing Series, R.J. Miller holds the top step over Paul White and 59 over third-place Jason Howell. A race within a race, the highest finishing driver in ASCS Elite Non-Wing competition will receive first-place points each night, with second place to the next Elite driver, and so on.
Last on track together during the Wingless Short Track Nationals at Texarkana 67 Speedway, Brady Bacon captured the $10,000 payday.
The first time in 20 years that Sprint Cars have graced Sooner State clay under the USAC National banner; the tour has been in action in Oklahoma on seven occasions since the tour's first visit in 1966 to the old Tulsa Speedway, where Larry Dickson made his way to Victory Lane. Rolling through to 2004, the tour's last run through Tulsa went to Jay Drake.
A long-awaited return to Oklahoma for the USAC National Sprint Car competition, this weekend marks the first time the ASCS Elite Non-Wing Series will be in action at the Oklahoma quarter-mile.
