Notable Stats From The Lucas Oil Tulsa Shootout Dec 29, 2020 FloRacing Staff
Before the 36th annual Lucas Oil Tulsa Shootout fires off this week, let’s review some of the most noteworthy statistical finds from the “Mecca of Micros.”
ENTRY EXPLOSION: Since becoming a micro-based event in 2011, car counts at the Tulsa Shootout have skyrocketed. That year in ’11, they welcomed 715 entries; last year in 2020, they nearly doubled that total with a staggering record of 1,384 entries. In fact, five of the last six events have boasted four-figure numbers.
Amazingly enough, the ’20 Tulsa Shootout (35th annual) broke almost every record imaginable with numbers including 333 cars in Stock Non-Wing, 309 cars in A-Class, 306 cars in Outlaw Non-Wing, 224 cars in Winged Outlaw, 112 cars in Restricted, and 69 cars in Jr. Sprints.
