ADA, Okla. — After a couple of nights of costly engine failures, Terry Easum turned things around at Oklahoma Sports Park.
Easum drove his Premier Self Storage sprinter into the early lead and went the 25-lap distance to win the AmeriFlex / OCRS IMCA Sprint Car main event.
Easum became the sixth different winner in six nights of racing.
“It has been awhile,” said Easum who had not won since 2021. “We had some bad luck the past few weeks. I think we got it turned around now.”
The tough luck started last month at Lawton.
“We broke a motor,” Easum said. “The block started leaking. Just a freak deal. But Greg Meyers got it fixed up for us.
“At Thunderbird it would not run and we had an issue there. It has been one thing after another.”
“Hopefully this is the turning point for the year.”
The finish:
