Sounds like a fantastic race. Natalie Sather led for 23 laps before 14th starting Gary Wright passed Natalie for the lead. Foster Landon was 3rd with Chuck Swenson, who had been racing 2nd for most of the race ended up in the last transfer position in 4th.
Darren Stewart rounded out the top five in Bobby Sparks' Ostrich-powered RESM Transport No. 91 Eagle, while past ASCS National champion Travis Rilat rallied from 17th to sixth. Danny Jennings, Garry Lee Maier, 21st-starter Jason Johnson and Kenneth Walker completed the top ten.
Anyone from the DFW area want to drive up Sat. for the races?

The race was not all that great -- not a LOT of passing all night. Natalie ran a great race and the crowd was cheering for her to win one - it was just a matter of time before Mr. Wright found her. He had her a couple of laps earlier but it was called back for a caution. She seems to be doing better this year

Actually it was a very entertaining race, with quite a lot of passing. Rilat and J.Johnson both transfered from the B and cracked the top 10. The top 4-5 were bunched for several laps, and the crowd was into it. Wright did have the faster car and it was only a matter of time before he went around Natalie.
Natalie has always been pretty fast but seemed to spin or crash or something. This year she looks much more consistant and determined than I have ever seen. Hopefully she keeps doing well, she is a very charming girl.

aw don't tease the guy. We met him last night south of the racetrack and he's a really cool chap. And dedicated. That man drove all the way from Western Michigan down here to OKC. Man.........I bet he was feeling like Rocky Balboa when he pulled into OKC.lol. Talk about going the distance.
Best of luck to the fella and I'm sure about half of the OKC crowd will see you up in Knoxville.
