Jim Body jumped into the initial lead with Hansen quickly taking over the runner-up position. However, Body was setting a strong pace and Hansen had to chase him down. On lap 7 Hansen drove to the high side of Body and was first across the start-finish line for the lead.

Joseph Gorby passed Body for second on lap 11 but could not catch Hansen and finished 0.789 seconds behind the leader. Body held on to third while Mark Daye advanced to fourth from 11th starting earning him the Mark’s Machine Shop Hard Charger award. Eddie Tidwell was credited with fifth in a race that ended one lap short due to a grinding crash on the front straightaway. Richard Shepler drive into the rear of Tidwell heavily damaging both cars. Fortunately Shepler and Tidwell exited their cars unhurt.

Due to a schedule change the next Sooner Late Model Series event is Friday, May 5, at Thunderbird Speedway. This event was originally scheduled for May 12. On Saturday, May 6, Enid Speedway will host their first Sooner Series event of the season.

Sooner Late Model Series

The Sooner Late Model Series was formed in 2016 by Enid Speedway co-promoter Mark Brill. Brill felt there was not many opportunities for late model competitors to race in Oklahoma and the Sooner Late Model Series was formed. Now the series has grown beyond the borders of Oklahoma with events held in the neighboring states of Kansas, Texas and Arkansas as well.
