Bryan Hulbert – SAPULPA, Okla. (November 4, 2023) Handing out over $50,000 during the NOW600 Nationals at Creek County Speedway over two nights of racing, Saturday’s championship event for the Dirt2Media National Open Wheel 600 Series presented by Hi-Plains Building Division saw wins go to Frank Flud in A-Class, Jett Nunley in Restricted, Brant Woods in Non-Wing, and Dylan Budnik in Dwarf Cars.
A $3,000 check for Frank Flud, the Hyper Racing No. 81 was the third driver to lead the A-Class feature event. Finding the line coming in on Lap 10, Flud rolled to second by Lap 13 and began his pursuit of Brant Woods. Rolling top-shelf as Flud hustled the bottom, the pass for the lead came on Lap 17, where Flud would steadily pull away to a 3.513-second advantage at the finish for career win No. 73 in NOW600 A-Class competition.
Braxton Weger, who led the opening lap, slipped to third, but fought back to finish second. Cole Roberts crossed third, and Colton Robinson rolled 13th to fourth. Brant Woods would end up fifth.
Adding his name to the list of winners, Brant Woods collected $3,000 with his first NOW600 Stock Non-Wing victory. Winner in A-Class on Friday, Woods chased the opening 11 laps as Colton Robinson took off with the lead at the start of the 30-lap event. Rolling to second on Lap 6 as Frank Flud raced by, the No. 81 was stalked by Woods, who had moved to second the following revolution.
Overtaking on Lap 12, Woods was ultimately chased to the finish by Johnny Boland, who rolled seventh to second. Frank Flud slipped to third, with Matt Carr fourth. California’s Ryan Winter completed the top five.
Sweeping the weekend for the $2,000 score in Restricted, Jett Nunley ran down Cale Lagroon and took over the point on Lap 15. Rolling away by 1.465-seconds, Nunley’s win was No. 26 in Restricted competition. Carson Bolden took second with four laps to go, moving Lagroon to third. Braxton Weger and Mason Nester made up the top five.
Racing to the lead on Lap 2, Dylan Budnik secured his first win of the season in Oklahoma, and sixth overall. Fending off several restart challenges for the win, Budnik finally pulled away by 0.955-seconds over Marek Pipe. Up to third, back to fifth, and finally back to third, Dillon Coyne claimed the bronze. Chris Ochoa and Chandler Foltz completed the top five.
Saturday’s finale of the NOW600 Nationals had 116 entries on hand.
