Sewell becomes first repeat AmeriFlex / OCRS Challenge winner
By John Rittenoure - SALINA, Okla. (September 26, 2020) - In the past four years no one has managed to win the AmeriFlex / OCRS Challenge more then once. That changed on Saturday when Alex Sewell took the checkered flag first to win the AmeriFlex Challenge V at Salina Highbanks Speedway.
Sewell defended his Challenge IV victory in 2019 earning $3,000 from a purse that exceeded $28,000.
Sewell has been on a win streak of late with three victories coming in July. Saturday's victory was his fourth of the season in seven starts.
Sewell started outside of pole sitter Jase Randolph and the two battle for the early lead. However, the race was red flagged after just a couple of laps when Cameron Hagin tangled with another car entering turn 3 and flipped end-over-end. Fortunately Hagin was not hurt.
Another red flag waved at the half-way point when two-time champion Robert Sellers got some air time between turns 1-2. Sellers walked away unhurt.
Once Sewell took command Randolph settled for a second place finish. Series points leader Zach Chappell held on to third for the 25-lap distance, Joe Bob Lee advanced from 8th to fourth and Blake Edwards finished fifth coming from a 10th place starting position.
James Shoun earned DFR Hard Charger advancing 10 spots to finish 12th.
