Aaron Reutzel Reigns Victorious in POWRi 410 BOSS at Lee County Speedway

Belleville, IL. (5/19/23) Aaron Reutzel would lead twenty-eight of the thirty laps of the second event for the 2023 season in the POWRi 410 Bandit Outlaw Sprint Series to notch his first career series feature victory at Lee County Speedway on Friday.

Cruising onto the track with thirty entries, Aaron Reutzel would clock a quick qualifying track record time with a 13.927-second lap time as heat racing action would witness Aaron Reutzel, Blake Hahn, Paul Neinhiser, and Brian Brown each earn an early victory with Tyler Lee earning the lone semi-feature event.

Going into the initial green flag start would find high-point qualifier and pole-sitter Aaron Reutzel battling outside front-row companion Michael “Buddy” Kofoid into the first pair of corners as Reutzel would gain the early racing advantage.

Appearing to be the fastest driver on the circuit, Aaron Reutzel would lead the first few laps until a speedy Buddy Kofoid would overtake for the lead only to see a mid-race caution bunch the field back together.

Using the restart to his advantage on the choose-cone possibilities, Aaron Reutzel would shoot to the point of the field to overtake for the lead on Kofoid. Reutzel would hold on to lead the remainder of racing laps and secure the front of the field to claim the feature win as Michael Kofoid placed runner-up with Aryton Gennetten earning the final podium placement.

“I knew Buddy was fast on the bottom and I didn’t have a choice as to where to drive, the restart came a perfect time and I just had to hang on after the squirrels caused the late caution,” said a winning Aaron Reutzel in the Lee County Speedway award ceremony.

Running smooth and gaining ground late would find see Ian Madsen finish fourth from starting seventh as Joe B Miller rounded out the top-five finishers for the POWRi 410 Bandit Outlaw Sprint Series at Lee County Speedway in Donnellson Iowa on Friday.
