Joe B. Miller capitalized and won the caution free 20 lap main event. Trevin Littleton earned his career best finish coming home in the second position, and Jordan Howell rounds out your top three. Harley Hollan, your POWRi Engler Machine & Tool Micro 600c points leader finished in the fourth position, and Wyatt Siegel finished in the fifth five to complete night #1 of Thunder in the Valley.
“Jordan got a really good start, and I thought I might be in trouble there, it was kind of one lane around the bottom. I just kind of moved around so I could get a little more extra speed to carry into the next corner and it worked well. I can’t thank everybody enough back in the pits, Derrick, Al, Jamie, Dad, Louie, all of my sponsors, and all of my friends and family. I couldn’t do it without them.” Commented Joe B Miller.
“We’ve been trying POWRi for the last few years, and it’s finally good to get a good finish, it’s about time,” said Trevin Littleton
“Man, just a few mistakes I made entering the corner, it kind of messed me up and my momentum. I was fighting the gear bad all night. I had a good race, and my goal was a podium, I haven’t been on the podium in a while,” states third place finisher, Jordan Howell.
