Shryock notches another USMTS Southern Series win at Enid Speedway Park



ENID, Okla. — Kelly Shryock was back in usual form Saturday night as he led wire-to-wire in capturing the main event to wrap up the Inaugural Oklahoma Fall Nationals for the USMTS Southern Series at the Enid (Okla.) Speedway Park. The eight-time O'Reilly USMTS National Champion and current USMTS Southern Series points leader from Fertile, Iowa, led all 40 laps from the pole en route to a $3,000 payday.

Shryock also swept both nights of the doubleheader when the USMTS Southern Series last visited Enid Speedway Park on March 31 and April 1.

Jason Hughes of Colcord, Okla., raced from 10th on the starting grid to the second spot early in the race, but was unable to challenge Shryock for the win and had to settle for the runner-up finish. Randy Timms of Wheatland, Okla., grabbed third, while Tim Donlinger of Rochester, Minn., was fourth and Watertown, S.D.'s Jon Tesch rounded out the top-5 finishers.

Scott Green, Friday night's winner Tommy Weder Jr., Eddie Martin, Willy Kraft and Steve Holzkamper completed the top-10.

With the win, Shryock extended his USMTS Southern Series points lead over Timms (1259 to 1174) with nine events remaining on the schedule. Hughes is third in the rankings with 1124 points, followed by Weder (1080), Greg Skaggs (1076), Holzkamper (1051), Rodney Sanders (897), Zack VanderBeek (889), Green (871) and Brandon Morton (775).

Next up for the USMTS Southern Series will be a tripleheader shootout on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Oct. 18-20, at the Motorama Speedway in Beaumont, Texas. Thursday's main event winner will garner $1,000, while $2,000 is on the line for Friday's winner and $3,000 for Saturday's winner.

All USMTS rules will apply. American Racer is the Official Tire of the USMTS, and any driver seeking to receive USMTS Southern Series points and/or contingency awards must use the American Racer KK-704 racing tire. The Hoosier G60 tire will also be allowed for this race, but drivers will not be eligible for points or contingency awards.
