Story By: TIM BATES / SHORT TRACK SUPER SERIES – VIVIAN, LA – Two-for-three. Koty Adams registered his second Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco Ollie’s ‘Cajun Region’ victory in three 2023 events Saturday night in a dominant performance at Ark-La-Tex Speedway in Vivian, La.
Adams picked up $1,200 for his efforts in Round No. 3 of the Day Motor Sports point series.
“Frank Lofton, my car owner, gives me everything I need to race,” Adams said.
“This is my kind of track,” Adams, the point leader, said of the D-shaped facility known as the “Land of the Three Wide.”
The win was Adams’ fourth in the series. He opened the ’23 campaign in April with a triumph at 105 Speedway in Cleveland, Texas.
Adams led from flag-to-flag on a tacky red clay surface over two-time series champion Caleb Dillard of Robeline, La. Patrik Daniel of Wills Point, Texas emerged from a battle with Anthony Meek of Markee, La., for third. Meek was fourth and Darrell ‘Brother’ Fowlkes of Woodworth, La., placed fifth.
The 25-lap main was slowed by just two cautions: lap 10 for James Griffin’s left-rear flat tire and lap 23 when Keith Badiali’s No. 35 slowed with smoke.
Daniel, Keith White and Adams won the heat races.
Next up for the STSS Ollie’s Cajun Region is the second ’23 visit to 105 Speedway in Cleveland, Texas on Saturday, June 10.
