The Mesa Arizona young gun aims to remain steady to clinch not only the rookie of the year points standings as well as clinch the league title.
Resulting in consistent frontrunning placements, a wealth of top-tier competitors within Keith Kunz Motorsports all remain in prominent positions within the season standings shuffle as Gavin Miller(-270) sits fourth, Taylor Reimer(-340) rounds out the top five, Cooper Williams(-360) is scored sixth, Jade Avedisian(-690) runs seventh, and Mariah Ede(-1900) is placed fourteenth within the POWRi National Midget League 2023 competitional standings as four-day Oklahoma adventure approaches.
Three-time champion and staple of POWRi professionalism sitting eighth in points, Zach Daum comes into the final weekend of competitions ripe to capture yet another championship in his illustrious career as the POWRi/Xtreme Challenge victor. Tied with Brad Kuhn wins in fourth position at twenty-three career feature wins, can perennial powerhouse Daum continue to build upon his racing impressive racing resume?
