David Gravel reclaimed the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series points lead at Kennedale and now leads by six points as he pursues a third consecutive series championship. He has finished on the podium in five of the last six races, while Carson Macedo sits six points back and carries a 3.57 average finish through seven events.

The tour heads to Oklahoma for a March 20-21 doubleheader, opening Friday at Lawton Speedway and continuing Saturday at Creek County Speedway in Sapulpa. Lawton will mark the tour’s 12th visit, while Creek County will be the series’ first visit to that track and will become the ninth Oklahoma host overall.

Fields at both venues are expected to approach 40 cars, mixing American Sprint Car Series regulars and Oklahoma standouts with Midwestern entries. Big Game Motorsports notched its first win of the year at Kennedale, and notable storylines include Michael “Buddy” Kofoid, last year’s Lawton winner, who dropped to sixth in the standings after a crash at Kennedale. Bill Balog scored his first podium of the year with a runner-up finish at Kennedale and is scheduled to make his Creek County debut, and Macedo is entered alongside Oklahoma drivers Matt Covington, Blake Hahn and Seth Bergman and Midwestern challengers Brady Bacon and Ryder Laplante.
