Picking up his sixth ASCS sanctioned victory on the season this past Saturday with the Red River Region, Sam Hafertepe, Jr. carries a 141 point advantage into the mile-high double header over Johnny Herrera. Having made some of his earliest laps at Colorado ovals, Herrera is trailed by Wayne Johnson with Matt Covington and 2015 series champion, Aaron Reutzel making up the top-five in series standings. Reutzel is the only other winner on the National Tour thus far, having broken Hafertepe's win streak at five during the series visit to Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City.

ASCS Warrior Region:
A weekend that fans have been looking forward too for some time, the return to Lake Ozark Speedway in Eldon, Mo. on Saturday, May 27 and the Tribute to Jesse and Daniel at Double X Speedway on Sunday, May 28.
Resurrected by Marshall, Missouri's Tim Trimble, the one-third clay oval has seen two nights of weekly Sprint Car action so far this season with Austin Alumbaugh and Randy Martin picking up wins. In the Speedway Motors ASCS Warrior Region presented by Impact Signs, Awnings, and Wraps last visit on September 4, 2011, Nebraska's Jack Dover grabbed the win. Saturday at Lake Ozark Speedway gets underway at 7:00 P.M. (CDT).
The annual Tribute to Jesse and Daniel at Double X Speedway features a trick that the late Jesse Hockett was quite known for. Build up a nice pot of extra cash and elect to drop to the tail with the rule being, he had to win to get the extra cash. A feat which he was quite successful at. That tradition is carried on in his honor, and already the pot is growing to see who will elect to give up their spot on the front row for a shot at extra cash. Sunday at the California, Mo. oval gets underway at 7:00 P.M. (CDT).
