POWRi Midgets part of Ironman 55 weekend

By POWRi (Belleville, IL) -- The historic POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget League and the POWRi West Midget League prepare to take on a two-day showing at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55. Alongside both POWRi Midget Series, the World of Outlaws Sprint cars will also be in attendance on Friday and Saturday, August 7-8.

POWRi Midgets have been on the schedule alongside the World of Outlaws for five years in a row now at the Ironman 55. Previous to running five consecutive years with the World of Outlaws, the POWRi National Midgets visited I-55 from 2006-2008.

Before the Ironman 55 in 2019, Brad Loyet of Sunset Hills, Mo. had been the only competitor to visit victory lane two times. Until last year, Rico Abreu of St. Helena, CA. led Keith Kunz-Curb Agajanian Motorsports to, two back-to-back wins in the most recent visit to I-55.

The first trip back to the very anticipated event, in 2015 Tanner Thorson of Minden, NV. Took his Keith Kunz-Curb Agajanian Motorsports Midget to victory lane in POWRi's first Ironman alongside the World of Outlaws. Thomas Meseraull found victory on the following night with his thrilling win.
