After a pair of false starts, Wise jumped into the lead, only to have the action interrupted after one round for a turn three tangle in which Gary Wright got upside down.

WICHITA, Kan. (May 9, 2004) - Oklahoma City's Andy Shouse struck a blow for the American Sprint Car Series while at the same time solidly entrenching himself as a leading contender for the 2004 American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Sooner Region championship by topping Sunday night's 25-lap ASCS Sooner Region vs. O'Reilly NCRA 360 Sprint Car series feature at 81 Speedway.
Shouse inherited the lead on the 19th round when race-long leader Garry Lee Maier tagged an infield tire exiting turn two and spun to a stop along the backstretch with race-ending front-end damage. Ironically, Maier had picked up his first victory of the year just 24 hours earlier under similar circumstances at Enid Motor Speedway.
Shouse then held off the fast-closing duo of Derek Drown and Kevin Ramey over the final rounds to post the landmark victory aboard the Allen Competition Engines No. 27 Smiley's Race Products/Eskridge Auto Group Maxim.

Lonnie Wheatley
ENID, Okla. (May 8, 2004) - Sometimes simply being in the right place at the right time can mean everything. Such was the case in Saturday night's 25-lap American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Sooner Region feature when Garry Lee Maier took advantage of race-long leader Danny Wood's late miscue to snare victory honors at Enid Motor Speedway.
Starting the main event from the front row outside, Wood outdueled polesitter Maier on the opening round and paced the opening 22 circuits of the non-stop affair with Maier and current series point leader Jason Martin in tow.
As the leaders worked through lapped traffic in the closing laps, Wood clipped an infield tire exiting turn two and nearly lost control. Wood was able to gather the Harvill Industries No. 44 back in, but not before Maier and Martin charged by.
