Cody Morris, Tulsa, Oklahoma (4-16-2012) - The 2012 Oil Medics
ASCS Lone Star Region campaign gets back underway this Saturday,
April 21st at the famous Devil’s Bowl Speedway.
Saturday’s outing at the famed half-mile oval will feature the
1st of seven Oil Medics ASCS Lone Star Region visits to the
legendary Mesquite, Texas venue, comprising approximate half of
the 2012 Lone Star Region campaign.
This event will feature the 1st of two stand alone Lone Star
Region outings at Devil’s Bowl, as a pair of dates against the
ASCS Sooner and ASCS National Tour prelude the 2nd stand alone
series’ outing, before the series’ finale in August against the
Gulf South Region.
In the fourth season of Oil Medics ASCS Lone Star Region action,
this Saturday will mark the 1st stand alone Lone Star event at
Devil's Bowl in series’ history and the tenth overall following
nine regional duels with ASCS Sooner and Gulf South rivals.
Saturday’s Devil’s Bowl Speedway event features the 2nd of
fourteen events on the 2012 Lone Star slate. Knoxville, Iowa’s
Wayne Johnson took season opening honors on April 7th in
Kilgore, Texas following a rare mistake by defending Oil Medics
ASCS Lone Star Champion and Glenpool, Oklahoma native Matt
Covington.
Following an ASCS career best runner up finish in the Kilgore’s
season opener, Mesquite’s Martin Edwards effectively enters the
Devil’s Bowl fray in the early 2012 series' point lead, as
despite tremendous Lone Star State success early in the season,
Iowa resident Wayne Johnson will likely run a nomadic schedule
throughout the 2012 season
.
Edwards‘ advantage is two-fold as he leads the series‘ into not
just his hometown, but home track; with grandfather and Sprint
Car Hall of Fame promoter Lanny Edwards at the helm of the
famous ½ mile for the 39th consecutive season.
