Commanding the front of the field in a near dominate fashion, Kole Kirkman would extent over a two-second advantage ahead of Cannon McIntosh maneuvering into the runner up running spot with Cruz Dickerson, Jake Nail, and Jett Barnes staying within the top five entering lap traffic as caution would bunch the pack back together on lap thirteen.
Restarting in an Honest Abe Choose Cone field refire, Kole Kirkman would defend the preferred position hitting the half way point leading a quickly gaining Jake Nail as Cannon McIntosh and Kris Carroll kept Cruz Dickerson to round out the top five with Connor Lee, Jett Yantis, Jett Barnes, Russ Disinger, and Jake Andreotti ran inside the top ten.

Setting the stage for late-race dramatics, Jake Nail would prevail and hold steady up front for his first career POWRi Non-Wing Outlaw Micro victory as Cruz Dickerson would finish in the closely contended second spot from starting third with Kris Carroll finalizing the podium placements and last auto-lock-in spot for Saturday at the line.
“The bottom was so good early and I knew I just had to bide my time, I adjusted the shocks under red and that was the change that won the race,” said Jake Nail in the Port City Raceway victory lane for Preliminary Night Two of the Oklahoman KKM Giveback Classic. Adding, “Track was tricky but this car was on a rail tonight and I couldn’t do any of this without everyone on this team”.
