MILLER SCORES WITH USAC EC AT DELAWARE INTERNATIONAL

By: Nick Fillman – USAC ECSC

Delmar, Delaware (May 25, 2024)………Kenny Miller lll of Morgantown, Pa. scored his first USAC Rapid Tire Services East Coast Sprint Car Presented by Capitol Renegade series win of the season on Saturday night at Delaware International Speedway.

In just his second start of the season at the season, Miller scored a heat race victory earlier in the evening and redrew the pole for the feature event.* Miller went on to lead all 25 laps of the feature on his way to the win. *Miller and his team fought engine and mechanical issues during their first outing at Port Royal (Pa.) Speedway one month ago. *Moving into the Delaware round, the team fought the same issues all night long and seemed less than optimistic about the feature.

Perhaps the issues that lingered through the feature event allowed the driver, who is already among the best with the series in slick track conditions, and his car to work even better for the feature event.

As mentioned over and over, Miller simply cannot be a full-time driver with the series due to his work commitments. *If not for his job, Miller would be a serious threat for more wins, and potentially, a series championship. *Hopefully, we will see Miller and his team back in action soon.

Steven Drevicki was the runner-up finisher on Saturday night in both his heat race and the feature event. *By virtue of his second-place result and Alex Bright’s fifth, Drevicki has retaken the points lead from Bright by just six markers.

The biggest mover of Saturday night’s feature was Jason Cherry who went from 10th to seventh place. *Cherry is another driver who can really showcase what he’s got when the track surface slicks off.
