Xavier Doney Earns Career First POWRi WAR Victory at Valley Speedway

Xavier Doney Earns Career First POWRi WAR Victory at Valley Speedway

Belleville, IL. (7/15/22) Teenage sensation Xavier Doney can add feature winner to his young driving resume with the Lucas Oil POWR Wingless Auto Racing Sprint League at Valley Speedway for the Thunder in the Valley & Lawson Memorial Weekend Event.

Early on track accomplishments would witness Kory Schudy clock top-time with a 13.426-lap as heat racing action would find Joe B Miller, Xavier Doney, and Kory Schudy each earn a heat competition victory.

Soaring into the initial start would see Wesley Smith outrun high-point qualifier and pole-sitter Kory Schudy in the first pair of corners to claim the front of the field for the opening few laps with all competitors running closely behind.

Leading through early cautions would find Smith battling Schudy for several laps as tire conservation and attrition would come into play with Schudy earning the front of the field around the mid-way point.

Guarding the lead, Schudy would try to hold the front to no avail as Xavier Doney was strategic in his late-race persistence to overtake using a high-side hustle in turns three and four and hold on to notch the first career POWRi WAR feature win.

“This means a lot to win the memorial event for my car owner making it even more special to earn my first win within WAR in the process. Everyone drove a clean race, I knew I had to get up on the wheel and had a lot of fun in this race” said an exhilarated Xavier Doney in the Grain Valley Missouri Victory Lane.

Maintaining a solid showing all night would find Kory Schudy finish runner-up as Wyatt Burks placed third. Early leader Wesley Smith would finish fourth with a late-race surging Anthony Nicholson rounding out the top-five finishers for the Lucas Oil POWRi WAR Sprint League feature event for Night One of the Thunder in the Valley & Lawson Memorial at Valley Speedway.
