LAWTON, Okla. — Danny Smith became the 11th different AmeriFlex Hose & Accessories OCRS Sprint Car winner of the season Saturday at Lawton Speedway.

Johnny Kent came away with a slim 14-point lead over Danny Wood with his 7th place finish behind sixth running Rees Moran. Wood finished 10th. Sheldon Barksdale earned the D&G Contruction Hard Charger award for his 8th place finish after winning the B-main and starting 15th. Kayden Cole finished ninth.
