Brian Carber, Christian Bruno, and James Morrin would each emerge victorious in heat racing action with Jake Andreotti, Braden Jones, and Alex Bright all earning wins in qualifier competitions.

“We felt pretty good all night and just made some minor adjustments, good to roll the car back into the trailer the way it rolled out,” said the victorious Alex Bright in the Clyde-Martin Memorial Speedway victory lane for Preliminary Night Two of the PA KKM Challenge. Adding, “Kind of a last-minute deal to run this weekend and just got the car ready last night. I could hear them running closely behind me but if anyone was getting past they would have to go to the top”.

Maneuvering towards the front, Braden Jones would place fourth as Chelby Hinton rounded out the top-five finishers in the POWRi Outlaw Micro League feature in Preliminary Night Two of the Keith Kunz Motorsports Challenge presented by Start2Finish TV at Clyde-Martin Memorial Speedway.
