The USRA American Racer Modified Series presented by Day Motor Sports invaded the Creek County Speedway in Kellyville, Okla., on Saturday with a talent-rich field of 34 racers battling for a $2,500 top prize despite triple-digit temperatures.

A melee in the first turn on the opening lap saw three cars come to a stop with sixth-starting Jason Sartain leaving the race on the hook of a tow truck.

Polesitter Jack Sartain brought the field back to the green flag and led the first lap before giving the spot to Michael Walker the second time around when the yellow flag waved for a second time.

Cautions hampered the next two laps as well. The fourth before the fourth lap could be completed wiped out a slider for the lead by Joe Duvall and gave Jack Sartain the lead back for the next restart.

Jack Sartain led two more circuits before Vince Lucas moved in the challenge. Lucas used the upper crust to scoot by Sartain as they completed the fifth lap.

Lucas continued to lead throughout the race while Duvall, former series champ Triston Dycus and ARMS points leader Chris Henigan put on a great show for the fans at the quarter-mile dirt oval.

A fifth and final caution happened with four laps to go and wiped out a five-car-length lead Lucas was enjoying and put four fast hombres on his rear bumper. Nonetheless, Lucas was unphased and the driver from Elk City, Okla., polished off the 30-lapper with the second USRA American Racer Modified Series win of his career.

Behind Lucas, Henigan was able to get around both Dycus and Jack Sartain to challenge for the lead but settled for runner-up honors at the finish line while Dycus, Jack Sartain and Chris Dawson followed in third, fourth and fifth.

Duvall held on for sixth, Manuel Williams II seized the seventh spot, the eighth-place paycheck went to Chad Davis, James McCreery nabbed ninth and Brandon Dean came from 15th on the grid to complete the top ten.

American Racer awarded $100 cash to Jack Sartain, Manuel Williams, Mason Williams in a random draw during the driver’s meeting for competitors who pre-entered for Saturday’s show, and Dizzy Dean Electric gave $150 to Sartain as the highest finisher who arrived with an open trailer.

Drivers, don’t forget that those who pre-enter for this and any ARMS race in 2022 save on the cost of the entry fee and pre-entries are eligible for one of three $100 cash drawings at the pit meeting those nights. Get entered now at https://www.myracepass.com/series/1965/registrations.
