Look down the page on the IOW mobile Twitter link I put on the LBurg thread. POWRI's been updating on Twitter all night. 38 cars. Last I looked they had posted the B Main lineups.

Tyler Thomas won over Brett Anderson, and Danny Stratton (from 15th)
Track was a bit to fast for the heats,so not a lot of passing,but still ok. B-mains were better,and the A-main was a barn burner. This Tyler Thomas was a rockestship,and a fearless one at that last night. He passed Brett Anderson for the lead while threading a needle with a lapped car at the same time. Lots of sliders thru out the feature.

Our friend Pat was out from Maryland,and I asked him after the race what he thought,and he was buzzing along like the rest of us were about the good race. It was his first time there,and he said he'd be back for sure,and that he really needs to come out for more POWRi races. No matter where they go,POWRi always has really good races.




MACON, Ill. (Sept. 29, 2012)—Tyler Thomas drove to his second victory of the season and Brett Anderson kept his championship hopes alive by finishing second Saturday in the POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget Series at Macon Speedway.

Thomas started eighth in the 22-car field and took the lead on the 15th of 30 laps on the one-fifth mile track, passing Anderson with a slide job in turns one and two. The 16-year-old from Collinsville, Okla., wasn’t threatened the rest of the way, winning by eight car lengths.

“I didn’t want to be the guy who changed the outcome of the championship, but I had a fast enough car to get out front of Anderson,” Thomas said. “Once I was there, it was on a rail. My dad (crew chief Brian Thomas) gave me a great car and it was a blast to drive.

“I never thought we’d get a win at Macon because we haven’t been that good there. But ever since Du Quoin (Ill.), we’ve had a good handling car on this type of track.”

Thomas won his first feature of the season at the Southern Illinois Center in Du Quoin on Aug. 31 and finished second to Bryan Clauson at the same track on Sept. 1. Thomas’ triumph at Macon was the third of his 35-event career in POWRi.

Anderson needed to finish ahead of championship leader Andrew Felker to stay in the hunt for the title. They started on the front row—Anderson on pole---and ran one-two until Thomas passed Felker for second on the 13h lap.

Felker finished fifth and leads Anderson, 2,980-2,790. POWRi requires a driver to drop its two lowest finishes, which effectively reduces his lead to 170. Anderson didn’t enter eight events this year and two count as dropped. Felker, a 19-year-old from Carl Junction, Mo., can clinch the title by finishing 17th in the season finale on Oct. 6 at Belle-Clair Speedway in Belleville, Ill.

Anderson, the 2008 POWRi Midget champion from Belleville, Ill., was focused on staying alive in the championship more than winning the race.

“We still have a good chance to win it,” Anderson said. “Tyler Thomas was running over the edge and I’m trying to win the championship. I really didn’t let him by when he passed me, but I couldn’t take the risk to try too hard to hold him off.”

Felker was satisfied to take fifth and take his 170-point lead to Belle-Clair.

“We played it a little conservatively on our setup and it bit us,” he explained. “I can’t complain about that. We had the ball in our court when Anderson and I were running first and second and that was fun. I drove smart.”

Trent Beckinger of Evansville, Ind., won his fourth feature of the season in the POWRi Speedway Motors 600cc Outlaw Micro Series, finishing four car lengths in front of Aaron Andruskevitch of Riverton, Ill.

Beckinger won the 2011 POWRi Micros championship with four wins in 19 features. He’s entered only eight events this year. In addition to the four wins, he’s been second twice and third twice.

“When you’re running part time in the series and not for points, you can try different setups and it seems to be paying off,” Beckinger said. “Last year, I ran on the bottom because that was the setup we had and it was working. I ran the top tonight. We also built a new car (Sawyer) and switched to Engler fuel injection (on his Kawasaki) and that’s made a difference for us.”

Andruskevitch strengthened his hold on second place in the points behind Joe B. Miller, who has clinched the championship. The POWRi Micros also close out the season on Oct. 6 at Belle-Clair.

“It was a good run,” Andruskevitch said. “Second is better than last, we’ll take it. My hat’s off to Trent.”

Jacob Patton of Bethalto, Ill., finished third for the third time in the past four features

As was stated earlier, Poweri put's on a great show wherever they race. Macon seems to be especially tailor made for the midgets and provides a venue that is second to none in regards to compatibility. Wish we coulda' been there.

Something we didn't see a lot of buzz about was the Saturday evening of Labor Day Weekend Poweri show inside the Southern Illinois Center on the Du Quoin State Fairgrounds during the hurricane Isaac. It was absolutely one of the best shows we've seen in several years and it was raining cats & dogs outside that night.

We're lookin' forward to making the 5 hour drive back down to Du Quoin just before Christmas for the light show on the fairgrounds and the Poweri boys doing "Battle in the Center".
