KELLYVILLE, Okla. (May 3, 2008) - Former sprint car champion Roy Larkin found his way into the winners circle for the first time in 2008 and it was enough to give him the points lead Saturday night at Creek County Speedway.

Leroy Cook, Jr. won a hard fought modified main event while Carl Lewis repeated in mini stocks, Mark Duensing won for the second time in pure stocks, and Matt French led all but one lap on the way to winning the super stock feature.

Larkin seemed to get faster as the laps wound down in the 20-lap sprint feature. Larkin chased down second place Waylon Weaver on lap 13 but needed two more laps to finally get by. Larkin then reeled in race leader Nicholas Lucito and the two ran side-by-side as they roared into turn one of lap 18. Larkin came out of two turn with the lead and led the final two laps for the victory. Lucito dropped to third on the final lap giving way to Evan Sewell who finished second. After the checkered Lucito turned his sprinter over in turn three. He was not hurt.
The race got underway with Nigel Calvert jumping into an early lead over Lucito and Larkin. On lap six the yellow waved for two incidents. Sewell had spun off turn one while Calvert and Larkin were involved in a collision in turn three. The restart put Lucito into the lead ahead of Weaver and Larkin. Lucito appeared headed for his first win but a lap 16 yellow closed up the field and set up Larkin for his move into the lead two laps later.

Cook had to battle with Jason Redman and Justin White to capture the modified main event. Cook lead early but Redman challenged on lap six and pulled into a slim lead. Cook did not give up and stormed back into the lead on lap nine. Cook held on to his lead as Nick Henson and Redman battled for the runner-up spot. Redman was later involved in a mishap and Henson held on to second ahead of third place Kevin Risley.

French wasted little time taking command of the super stock feature. French was out front after just two laps and he remained their for the next 18 laps. James Esmond held down second until the final lap when points leader Tommy Romine managed to take away second on the final lap. Robert  Scott and Jimmy Owen rounded out the top five.
The race was red flagged four laps in when Robert Kirk got sideways in turn one and barrel rolled. Kirk was not hurt.

Carl Lewis got a little help when leader Michael Stucks left the race at the halfway mark. Lewis inherited the lead and held it to the finish to win his second straight and third mini stock feature in five weeks. Stucks led early on and was chased by pole sitter Donnie Gramblin.  Lewis passed Gramblin for second on lap five. But Gramblin ended up finishing second.

Mark Duensing won for the second time in pure stocks. Duensing led from the start and opened up a two turn lead after eight laps before a yellow flag closed up the field. But Duensing remained in the lead on the restart. Robert Baxter worked his way into second until he had a flat tire with one lap remaining. Nick Gauntt then moved up to finish second.

Saturday the OCRS sprints return for a wing, non-wing double header. The sprints will race a full program with wings then will remove the wins and race another complete show consisting of heats and main event. The overall winner from both features will earn $1,700. The feature pays $400 to start.

Super stocks, mini stocks and front wheel drive classes will also be racing. Modifieds and pure stocks will be off. Race time is 7 p.m.
