Lucas Oil SpeedwayWheatland, MO (April 30th, 2011)- Brad Loyet out of Sunset Hills, Missouri captured the Inaugural POWRi Lucas Oil Mid-State Missouri Nationals at Lucas Oil Speedway Saturday night, after overtaking Zach Daum midway through the race with a tough pass on the outside. Greenfield, Missouri’s Rylan Long took top honors in the TNT Quick Shop Late Models while Sundance Keeper rebounded from recent engine issues to take the win in the Carson’s Corner Napa Factory Stocks.

Loyet, the 2007 and 2010 POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget Champion won for the 53rd time in his career. Chett Gehrke of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma and Zach Daum of Pocahontas, Illinois waged a thrilling battle for second as Loyet raced to the win with Gehrke taking the second spot and Daum settling for third. Belleville, Illinois’ Nick Knepper finished in fourth while Dereck King of Vienna, Illinois crossed the AAA Start/Finish line in the fifth spot.

Former TNT Quick Shop Late Model Track Champion Rylan Long of Greenfield, Missouri shot to the lead from his second starting position as he dominated the field to claim his first TNT Quick Shop Late Model win on the young season in the Midwest Low-E A-Feature. El Dorado Springs’ Larry Jones backed up his win the last time out with a strong second place on Saturday night with Springfield, Missouri’s Chris Morelock coming home in third. Monett’s Jordan Holloway captured the fourth spot after starting eighth. Defending and 2-time Track Champion Tommy Cordray out of Browning, Missouri started fifth and finished in fifth.

Sundance Keepper earned the pole position for the Carson’s Corner Napa Factory Stock Nemo Quarry A-Feature after earning the most passing points in his heat race. Keepper appeared on his way to a rather easy win the last time out, only to see late race engine troubles end his night but he would not be denied on this night as he held off a hard charging Mark Carter out of Warrensburg, Missouri to take the win. Carter held on for second in his white #10 with Billings, Missouri’s James Flood finishing in third. Marshfield, Missouri’s Tim Jones finished in fourth while Republic, Missouri’s Burl Woods crossed the stripe in fifth at the finish.
