Registering a stout field of thirty competitors in the POWRi Jr Sprint League at Lil’ Texas Motor Speedway would find Mattix McBride set the quickest qualifying time at a 14.114-second lap. Mattix McBride, Kinser Bloomquist, Cash Lacombe, and Oakley Wren each would claim heat racing wins with Sawyer McBride achieving the single semi-feature victory.
Cruising onto the recently reopened racetrack, the high-point qualifier Mattix McBride would use an inside front-row start to lead outside front-row companion Kinser Bloomquist on the initial laps as Cash Lacombe, Oakley Wren, Kaiden Lane, and Owen Larson all ran inside the top six.
Leading every circuit of the twenty-lap feature, Mattix McBride would not be denied in his quest for perfection while fending off the late-race restart from the field with Kinser Bloomquist crossing the finish line in a very close runner-up placement.
“The screen really helped me there, I seen them right on me the whole time and I knew what I had to do to get this big win,” said a very happy and victorious Mattix McBride as the feature winner at Lil’ Texas Motor Speedway in C. Bell’s Micro Mania with the Jr. Sprints.
Amongst the front-runners throughout the event, Oakley Wren would notch a solid third with Caleb Johannesen hard-charging to placing fourth as Kaiden Lane rounded out the top-five finishers in C. Bell’s Micro Mania at Lil’ Texas Motor Speedway with the POWRi Jr Sprint League feature for preliminary night two.
