Belleville, IL. (10/20/2020) After a valiant effort in 2019 with the POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget League, Jake Neuman came up two spots short in the final championship standings.

While a podium and a ninth-place finish were nothing too exciting for Neuman, it was all part of the plan to build up solid finishes and grab the championship.

“These last two races were the first races I used a provisional for all year, so we have been pretty good this year.”

All-in-all, Neuman never gave up and had a total of 8 top five finishes and 18 top ten in 19 feature events. With a striking 620-point advantage over his long-time friend, and Ex-teammate, Ace McCarthy who finished second in season points.

My dad, Allen, Bobby, My Bother, everybody in the shop, and really just everybody that has come and helped us this year. I just can’ thank everybody enough. My sponsors Brandt, Littleton, Modern Paving and Scrap, in really can’t thank everybody enough.” Stated 2020 POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget League Champion.
