POWRi presented by SPEEDWAY Motors National Midget Series returns to DuQuoin Illinois for the 1st Annual Battle at the Center on the Mini Magic Mile in the Southern Illinois Center. The invitation only event will feature 50 laps of racing paying $5000.00 to win on Saturday December 18th.

POWRi and NeWave Productions are working together to air the Battle at the Center via live streaming along with being taped delayed on SPEED Channel LUCAS Oil on the Edge. Specific air times have yet to be determined and will most likely be aired on SPEED Channel in February. “Lucas Oil on the Edge is an exciting show that will help expose SPEED viewers to Midget Racing,” said Kenny Brown of POWRi. “This is a great opportunity for continued growth of POWRi drivers and teams. Television coverage is a big step for our organization and our competitors; it is the perfect way to showcase this great sport and its people. The combination of NeWave, Lucas Oil, and SPEED have showcased some of the nation's best racing over the past few years”, added Brown.

Due to the limited space at The Southern Illinois Center, the event will be by invitation only with competitors from POWRi, Badger and the USAC National Series getting automatic invites. “This is a great way for POWRi to thank the drivers and teams that have supported us throughout the year in these tough economic times. This will hopefully help both drivers and teams secure sponsors’ for the upcoming racing year,” said Jim Siner of POWRi. Driver invitations for this event will be going out later this week. Tickets for Battle at the Center will be going on sale November 1st. You can log onto www.powri.com for more information on the event.
