Pre Entries are now over 40. I know of 6 more that have not pre entered and have said they are definitely coming.

NOTE: If you have a midget, lightning sprint or micro tail tank then it has to have a bladder. If you have a metal tank it also has to have a bladder. The Jaz type fuel cells are allowed with a tail cover over them.

We had a total of 43 cars that signed in on Fri evening at Lake Ozark Speedway for the POWRi Lightning Sprint Nationals. 11 different states and Canada made up the field of cars.

Sat night Finals top ten

1st Brad Strunk OH
2nd Grant Sexton CA
3rd Eric Sunborg Quebec Canada
4th Chris Crowder CO
5th Tomy Moreau Quebec Canada
6th Pressley Truedson MN
7th Josiah King CO
8th Dean Parker IN
9th Alan Truscinski MN
10th Joel Mellon CO

For complete results go to the Lake Ozark Speedway web site.

The 2 day purse was in excess of $ 14,000.

The POWRi Officials did a tremendous job. They were assisted by the Midwest Lightning Sprint officials. Dave Boos from the RMLSA did the tech. From all indications from the track owner, Tim Trimble, we will do this again in 2020. The race will be moved up in the calendar some because of the threat of bad weather in Oct. Thank you to everyone for making this 1st POWRi Lighting Sprint Nationals a success.
