O’Neil obliterates USMTS field in Oklahoma POCOLA, Okla. (May 14)—Not even a delay of nearly two hours for a crackling powerline could stop Jake O’Neil from electrifying the crowd at the Tri-State Speedway in Pocola, Okla., as he took the lead on the second lap and never looked back in winning his second USMTS main event of the weekend. Nor did a pair of late-race cautions which erased two huge leads get in O’Neil’s way en route to winning his third main event of the season with the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt. His $10,000 triumph in Saturday night’s 8th Annual Drive4JRT.com Juggernaut gave the 30-year-old from Tucson, Ariz., his 23rd career USMTS victory, tying him with Al Hejna for the 12th spot on the all-time list. O’Neil made quick work of polesitter Kale Westover and took control as the lead duo completed the second trip around the always-racy 3/8-mile of red dirt, and then proceeded to build a lead of more than seven seconds over his chasers. Caution-free through 28 laps, late yellow flags on laps 29 and 31 gave little hope to his pursuers as O’Neil sped away from the action behind him, eventually crossing the finish line at the end of the 40-lapper with a 3.822-second advantage over Cayden Carter. Carter—a top contender for the Grant Junghans USMTS Rookie of the Year Award—got around his VanderBuilt Race Cars car builder, Zack VanderBeek, on the final caution and secured his second runner-up finish this season. VanderBeek settled for third while 13th-starting Dustin Sorensen came on late to steal fourth place away from four-time USMTS national champ Rodney Sanders and solidify his place atop the points standings. Tyler Wolff was the race’s FK Rod Ends Hard Charger Award winner, racing from 18th to sixth at the checkered flag while 15th-starting Terry Phillips, 20th-starting Tanner Mullens, Jake Timm and Jason Hughes—the best-finishing Oklahoman among the 50 entrants. Including his win on Friday at the Red Dirt Raceway in Meeker, Okla., O’Neil increased his bank account by $17,000. Now that’s staying ahead of inflation! Memorial Day Weekend Four-Pack Next: The Best of the Best in dirt modified racing are headed north for another historic weekend of racing over Memorial Day Weekend featuring the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt.
