PARK CITY, Kan. (July 14, 2018) Three nights and just as many wins. Safe to say Kansas Sprint Week was a wild success for Jonathan Cornell with his latest triumph against the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Red River Region presented by Smiley’s Racing Products coming at 81-Speedway.
Joined again with NCRA, Cornell gave chase until a restart with four laps to go.
Going after Alex Sewell for the lead, the race into turns one and two saw the Kiowa Line Builders No. 28 shoot past Sewell for the top spot. One more caution before the race’s conclusion, Sewell was not able to make work of Cornell who sped away for the win.
Sewell’s third podium run in as many nights, the Oklahoma driver was joined on the podium by Jay Russell. Fourth went to Zach Chappell with Mathew Howard running from14th to fifth. Lance Norick from 12th crossed sixth with Danny Jennings slipping from the pole to seventh. Picking up eight spots, Ray Seemann grabbed eighth with J.D. Johnson and Jake Greider to make the top-ten.
The American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Red River Region presented by Smiley’s Racing Products will see action again on Friday, July 27 at Creek County Speedway in Sapulpa, Okla., followed by I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Ark. on Saturday, July 28 with the ASCS Mid-South Region.
