Kale Drake Drives to POWRi Non-Wing Outlaw Micro KKM Giveback Classic Championship Night Victory

Tulsa, OK. (10/19/24) Kale Drake would continue his dream run of on-track excellence in the ‘Ride-or-Cash’ Eibach Racing Championship Night of the yearly installment of the Keith Kunz Motorsports Giveback Classic to claim his second seasonal victory with the POWRi Non-Wing Outlaw Micro League at the outstanding hosting of Port City Raceway by leading sixteen of the sixty-seven main event feature laps.

“Literally none of this would be possible without the people that believed in me since day one and this big check really helps out,” said Kale Drake taking the “Cash” in victory lane ceremonies.

Progressing through a strong full field of ninety-three entries set by preliminary night points to form lineups on Championship Night of the POWRi Non-Wing Outlaw Micro division in the KKM Giveback Classic would find Gavin Miller set the quick non-lock-in hot lap time with 9.830 seconds. Going through an alphabet soup of semi-features, Jake Andreotti and Brecken Reese would gain the b-feature wins with Brian Carber and Justin Simpson taking the c-feature checkers, as well as Matt Moore and Cody Jessop victorious in d-features and Ashley Afdahl earning the top spot in the e-feature.

Automatically locking into the main event through top three placements in preliminary night competitions as well as KKM Challenge event wins, setting the first four starting rows through a King of Port Pole-Shuffle with Jake Nail victorious over Steven Snyder Jr, Kale Drake, Kole Kirkman, Cruz Dickerson, Kris Carroll, Johnny Boland, and KJ Snow.

Increasing adrenaline onto the smooth Port City Raceway surface for Eibach Racing Championship Night feature racing for the opening night of the Keith Kunz Motorsports Giveback Classic would see high-event qualifier Jake Nail battle outside front-row contender and point-leader Steven Snyder Jr as the green flew as Jake Nail holding the front of the field with Steven Snyder Jr, Kale Drake, Cruz Dickerson, and Johnny Boland all staying close inside the early contending top as the first caution would wave on lap seven to regroup the field.

Refiring smoothly in the Honest Abe Choose Cone to restart early in the feature, Jake Nail would set sail at the front of the field with Kale Drake maneuvering into the runner-up spot as Kole Kirkman followed behind in third as the quarter-way point on the feature approached rapidly as lap traffic began to come into play.

Increasing the drama with a lap twenty-eight caution to bunch the field back together, Jake Nail would continue to set a blistering pace at the point with Kale Drake and Kole Kirkman keeping pace as the top three began to separate from the field with Steven Snyder Jr, Colby Sokol, Cannon McIntosh, Cruz Dickerson, Jake Andreotti, Jett Barnes, and Brecken Reese within the top ten around the middle of the prestigious event.

Covering the coveted top spot, Jake Nail would continue to set the pace until heavy lap traffic occurred when Kale Drake would shoot to the top of the field with Colby Sokol following in the tire tracks into position two just as the leader of fifty-one laps Jake Nail would clip an infield tractor tire sending him flipping, driver would be okay yet unfortunately taking the speedster from competitions.

Resuming racing with Kale Drake leading would witness Gavin Miller running from a C-Feature advancement to battling into the runner-up spot with less than ten laps remaining as Cannon McIntosh rounded out the late podium of front-running contenders ahead of Colby Sokol and Kole Kirkman inside the opposing top five.

Adding to the spectacular feature, a late race caution would regroup the field with only a trio of laps remaining with Kale Drake holding steady up front for his fifth career POWRi Non-Wing Outlaw Micro victory as Gavin Miller would finish in the closely contended second spot from starting eighteenth with nineteenth-starting Cannon McIntosh finalizing the podium placements.

“This is unbelievable, this place means so much to me with the support of everyone that makes this possible,” said Kale Drake in the Port City Raceway victory lane for Championship Night of the Sooner State KKM Giveback Classic. Adding, “It was a super dominate bottom track and I happened to see them move the tires down before the feature and knew I had to keep my nose down and not make as many mistakes as I could and it paid off”.

Driving from starting fourteenth, Colby Sokol would place fourth as Brecken Reese rounded out the top-five finishers in the POWRi Non-Wing Outlaw Micro League feature in Eibach Racing Championship Night of the Keith Kunz Motorsports Giveback Classic at Port City Raceway.
