TULSA, Okla. — After winning a Golden Driller last January, Logan Seavey added a victory in the O’Reilly Auto Parts Invitational Race of Champions to his list of accomplishments inside the SageNet Center on Monday night.
Seavey became the 10th driver to top the 25-lap affair.
Quick time, then gridding fourth after the inversion draw was a four, the race to the lead took 13 laps as Chase Briscoe led the opening dozen laps.
Gaining momentum for the slide, Seavey quickly took the Victory Fuel No. 39 to a commanding lead before a caution flag on lap 18.
Seavey went to the cushion on the restart and pulled away to win by 2.448 seconds.
In a battle for the runner-up spot, Tyler Courtney held off the repeated slide jobs from Cannon McIntosh, who finished third.
Kater Sarff was fourth, with Chase Briscoe completing the top five.
The O’Reilly Auto Parts Invitational Race of Champions is held during Monday’s Cummins Qualifying Night and brings Chili Bowl and series champions together for a showdown and bragging rights.
