Kicking off the 5th annual Spring Nationals at Red Dirt Raceway, the Lucas Oil National Open Wheel 600 presented by Hi-Plains Building Division brought A-Class, Non-Wing, and Restricted to the Oklahoma quarter-mile with 68 entries drawing in.
Originally, its own event, Mother Nature, caused officials to delay the show by a week, making events at the Red Dirt Raceway non-point paying shows. Nevertheless, the racing was memorable as Chris Cochran added a fifth career victory to his credit in Non-Wing action. A former winner with wings off, Topeka’s Dylan Kadous added his name to the list of winners in A-Class competition, while Jett Nunley made it two wins on the season in Restricted.
Leaders start to finish in A-Class and Restricted; the Non-Wing A-Feature was led early by Austin Saunders before mechanical issues sidelined the No. 82s. Having fallen to second before retiring, Cochran was credited with leading eight laps.
The second round of the Red Dirt Raceway Spring Nationals is Saturday, March 5, 2022. Pits open at Noon with racing at 4:00 P.M. (CT). Red Dirt Raceway is located at 990871 S. Hwy. 18 in Meeker, Okla. For more information, log onto http://www.reddirtraceway.com.
