USMTS Tackles
Two Sooner State Ovals May 13-14
The ferocious outlaw-style
open-wheel dirt modifieds of the Summit USMTS National
Championship presented by RacinDirt prepare for a double
dip in the Sooner State this weekend.
It starts
with a trek to the Red Dirt Raceway in Meeker, Okla.,
for the $7,000-to-win 6th Annual Fallen Hero 50
presented by RacinDirt this Friday, May 13, followed by
the 8th Annual
Drive4JRT.com Juggernaut on Saturday, May 14, at the
Tri-State Speedway in Pocola, Okla., with $10,000 up for
grabs to the winner there.
While this is the
first time the series invades Cody Brewer’s popular
bullring, USRA Modifieds have competed on several
occasions here. Tyle Wolff won at Red Dirt Raceway in
the 2020 “Cowboy Proof 100” and Joe Duvall did the same
last season during a contest with the USRA American
Racer Modified Series presented by Day Motor sports.
Joining the Summit USMTS Modifieds will be Sport
Mods/B-Mods, Factory Stocks and Non-Wing Micros
Races begin at 7:30. Pit gates open at 3 p.m. with
grandstands and tailgate parking open at 6. The reserved
"Tailgate Section" spot is good for one vehicle with a
limit of eight people per vehicle. Camping is also
available.
Tickets may be purchased here prior to 12 noon on
Thursday but will be available on race day at the ticket
window.
The track is located at 990871 S Hwy 18,
Meeker, OK 74855. Call (405)
318-0198 or (405)
823-8095 for more information or visit
reddirtraceway.com.
On Saturday, it will be
the ninth visit to the Tri-State Speedway since Eddie
Martin won the inaugural event on June 9, 2009.
Since then, four-time USMTS National Champion Jason
Hughes has won a series-best three features while Zack
VanderBeek, Hunter Marriott, Rodney Sanders and Dereck
Ramirez each have one.
Ramirez is the most recent
winner of the Drive4JRT.com Juggernaut and defending
Summit USMTS National Champion. A record prize of
$100,000 awaits this year’s titlist.
Along with
the Summit USMTS Modifieds, the racing card will see
USRA B-Mods and Sunoco USRA Factory Stocks each racing
for $1,000 to win and Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series
national points.
The pits open at 4 p.m.,
grandstands open at 5:30, hot laps and qualifying begin
at 7:30 with racing slated to get underway at 8.
The track is located at 1705 W Racetrack Rd, Pocola, OK
74902. For more information, call or text
(918) 575-1369 or visit

These will be the
eighth and ninth races on the 2022 schedule with 14
