Carney sweeps Red River Roundup Sprint features
WICHITA FALLS, Texas (March 4-5) – John Carney was late getting to the track Friday night, and that was the only time he was late getting anywhere during the March 4-5 Red River Roundup. Carney won both IMCA EMI RaceSaver Sprint Car features during the opening weekend for the new Sprint Series of Oklahoma at Red River Speedway, earning $700 on Friday and $1,000 on Saturday. The sweep gave him 14 straight RaceSaver feature wins, including last September’s Sprint Car Nationals. “I had a great car both nights. I could go anywhere on the track with it and that was thanks to my crew,” noted Carney, driver of the Coyote Candle Company ride. After missing the draw and racing from ninth to second in his heat, Carney’s Friday checkers came from 14th starting in the main event. He was on time Saturday and won his heat, then started outside the front row and led all 25 laps. Tim Crawley, Justin Melton, Zane Lawrence and Joe Wood Jr. completed the opening night top five.
