Miller Wins at I-30 Speedway
Little Rock, AR – Joe B. Miller of Millersville, Missouri put on a strong showing in the 20 lap POWRi Speedway Motors 600cc Outlaw Micro Series feature event at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Arkansas. Sharing the front row with Arkansas native and pole sitter, Travis Senter, Miller and Senter went neck in neck for the top position into turn one. Coming out of turns one and two for the $2000 to win, $200 to start main, Miller had the clear advantage and started to put space between himself and Senter, while Steven Shebester trailed in third.
Miller’s pace was only slowed one time with the caution occurring early on during lap four. When the field returned to green flag racing, Miller took off as Shebester pressured Senter for the second position. Shebester officially took second from Senter on lap seven. As the laps wound down and the top three diced through traffic, Nathan Benson closed in on third place runner, Senter, after starting twelfth. Snagging the position from Senter on lap 17, Benson took third place and rounded out the podium with Senter in fourth. Josh Rehm finished fifth.
“I knew we were going to have to get the jump,” said Joe B. Miller. “Trav and I were going in almost nose to nose. It was a drag race into one and once I knew I had the preferred line up on the banking, we could get rolling pretty good. Heading into three, we were stuck and I knew we were golden.”
“We had a decent run in the midget, ended up third,” Steven Shebester stated. “Came out in the micro and started sixth, picked off a couple cars in the beginning and just let it roll after that and ended up second.”
“Unfortunately the heat race didn’t go quite so well,” explained Nathan Benson. “Got bottled up on the start and didn’t get enough passing points, so we had to come from twelfth. Really fast car; just wish we could have had a caution there near the end.”
