Seth Bergman Rules Fall Fling

SAPULPA, Okla. — Getting the lead just past the halfway point Friday night and never looking back, Washington’s Seth Bergman collected the opening night of the Creek County Speedway Fall Fling with the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Sooner Region presented by Smiley’s Racing Products.

Collecting $2,000 for his efforts, the win is Seth’s 12th all-time with the ASCS Sooner Region and ninth at Creek County Speedway.

Taking the green from the sixth starting spot, the Evergreen Coffee, Co. No. 23 tracked down Chance Morton for the lead on lap 14.

Trading lines several laps leading up the advance, Bergman worked through traffic with Blake Hahn in pursuit the final five laps.

Held up by traffic for just a moment, it was enough to let Hahn close to under a second, but the doors opened for Bergman to run away by 2.291 seconds.

The final podium step went to Chance Morton, with Alex Sewell completing the top five.

The finish:
