MEEKER, Okla. — With a different design and a new sponsor at a never-before-seen track, Corey Day still did what Corey Day does on Tuesday night at Red Dirt Raceway - he even made a lucky fan $3,500 richer in the process.
Kicking off the Midweek Money Series in spectacular fashion, the 18-year-old Clovis, CA native drove from 7th-to-1st at the Meeker, Oklahoma bullring - passing Tyler Courtney on Lap 20 and then riding the cushion to perfection as he drove off for the win.
It was a special one as Day will compete in all Midweek Money Series events aboard a unique Driven2SaveLives #14BC - a combination effort from Jason Meyers Racing and Clauson-Marshall Racing.
With the added DURST Dice Roll money, Day's payday on Tuesday rose to $23,500, that following his $12,000 score on Sunday night at RPM Speedway. Wichita's Andrew Howard left with an extra $3,500 himself after being selected to roll the dice, and then winning with Corey.
Tyler Courtney ended up P2 aboard the Clauson-Marshall Racing, NOS Energy Drink #7BC, claiming his series-best fifth podium in seven races as he extends an early-season championship advantage. Sunshine led laps 7-20, but fell to the wayside in lap traffic when Day drove under and took off.
Brent Marks survived an all-out way for the final podium position, overcoming the likes of Brad Sweet, Kyle Larson, Rico Abreu, Parker Price-Miller, and Justin Peck to put the Murray-Marks Motorsports #19 in third-place.
Parker Price-Miller and Justin Peck rounded out the top-five with Kyle Larson, Rico Abreu, Brad Sweet, Kasey Kahne, and James McFadden closing out the top-10.
