Kuhn & Dillion take POWRi Opener at “The Mini Magic Mile”
DUQUOIN, IL (March 28) – Brad Kuhn of Avon, IN wasted no time in
making his mark on the 2009 POWRi National Midget season winning the 40 lap
Dean King Memorial at “The Mini Magic Mile” driving the A.J. Felker Stealth
midget. A total of 39 midgets filled the pits competing for the 20 feature
positions available. Tim Siner of Dupo, IL started on the pole and set the
pace early leading the first 27 laps of the event. As the track started to
dry out, Kuhn dove under Siner for the lead. Kuhn would pace the field while
Brad Loyet of Sunset Hills, MO worked his way up to second followed by Nick
Knepper of Belleville, IL and Siner.
Loyet would make a run on Kuhn on the final lap and made contact with Kuhn
coming off of turn four and would take the checkered in front of Kuhn. After
a brief deliberation the POWRi officials determined that Loyet would be
relegated to the last car on the lead lap because of the contact in turn
four and awarded the win to Kuhn. The official top five would be Kuhn, Nick
Knepper, Siner, Tracy Hines coming from 15th starting position and Matt
Westfall.
Greg Dillion of Terre Haute, IN led the final 20 laps of the 30 lap O’Reilly
POWRi 600cc Outlaw Micro Sprint event winning the Dean King Memorial at “The
Mini Magic Mile”. There were a total of 79 micro sprints entered for the
event. Jeremy Camp would lead the first 10 laps of the race followed closely
by Dillion and Austin Laskey. On lap 10 Dillion dove under Camp for the lead
with Laskey in tow. Laskey would give chase to Dillion as they started to
weave through lapped traffic but Dillion proved to be too strong. Following
Dillion at the finish would be Laskey, Derek King, Andrew Felker and Joey
Paynter.
