Alex Pokorski wraps 2024 campaign as PDTR 360 Sprint Car runner-up

(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) October 1, 2024 – Alex Pokorski and the members of the Akright Auto Racing Team closed the curtain on the 2024 Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing – Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car season with a strong top five run during the seventh annual Wisconsin Sprint Car Championships to solidify a second place showing in the final PDTR 360 Sprint Car point standings at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, Sept. 28.

The fifth-year Sprint Car driver opened the final event of the 2024 season by qualifying second overall in the 25-car field with a lap of 12.663 seconds around the venerable third-mile clay oval.

The West Bend, Wis. competitor started and finished third in the second PDTR-Midwest Sprint Car Association eight-lap heat race to earn the seventh starting spot in the 25-lap main event.

Pokorski, who earned the 2023 PDTR and MSA Most Improved Driver Award, moved up to fourth on lap 9 and later fell to sixth following a pair of caution flags on lap 12 and 13.

Over the final 10 laps, Pokorski worked primarily the high groove of the smooth, slick and multi-groove racing surface to move back into fourth place on lap 18. He held strong in the final seven laps to register a fourth place finish in a race won by 2024 PDTR and MSA champion Ben Schmidt.

After collecting his sixth top five A-main showing of the 2024 season, Pokorski nailed down the runner-up spot in the final PDTR 360 Sprint Car point standings, 50 points behind Ben Schmidt.

Pokorski also wound up third in the final 2024 MSA 360 Sprint Car point standings behind champion Ben Schmidt and runner-up Brandon Berth.

In 16 PDTR-MSA 360 Sprint Car events during the 2024 season, Pokorski notched six top-five, 12 top-10 and 13 top-15 A-main showings. In addition, Pokorski tallied four heat race victories and two fast qualifier awards during the 2024 campaign.

“It was a fun night at Plymouth to close out our season,” Pokorski said. “We did well this year and secured our highest finish in the point standings to date. At this point, we plan to be racing a mix of 410 and 360 Sprint Car races in 2025.”

In four 410 Sprint Car starts in 2024, Pokorski compiled one top 10 A-main finish, one heat race victory and one dash appearance.

Paul Pokorski also entered seven Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Car events in Spyder Akright’s 53A car, during which he claimed two top 10 and three top 15 A-main showings, two heat race victories and one fast qualifier award.

Pokorski and Akright teamed up to place the 53A car 16th in the final 2024 Akright Auto Midwest Sprint Car Association point standings.
