Cannon McIntosh Claims Checkers at I-55 Raceway with POWRi National Midget League and Xtreme Midget Series

Cannon McIntosh Claims Checkers at I-55 Raceway with POWRi National Midget League and Xtreme Midget Series

Belleville, IL. (4/14/23) Cannon McIntosh would lead the final eleven laps at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 in Pevely Missouri on Friday Night to capture his nineteenth career victory with the POWRi National Midget League, running in conjunction with the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota, in a technical thirty-lap feature event.

Early Pevely Missouri competition with thirty-one entrants would see Ethan Mitchell start things off in a quick time of 12.708 as Rico Abreu, Cannon McIntosh, Chase McDermand, and Zach Daum each earned heat racing wins with Ryan Timms picking up the semi-feature victory.

Setting the field of top-notch competition would find high-point qualifier Rico Abreu to redraw and shuffle the first pair of rows for the feature event. Battling into the first corners would find pole-sitter Chase McDermand and front-row counterpart Kyle Jones each jockeying for positions with Chase McDermand gaining the advantage on the opening lap as Zach Daum, Cannon McIntosh, Rico Abreu, and Kyle Jones were all found racing inside the top five.

Overtaking for the lead on the second lap would find Zach Daum navigate by Chase McDermand as Rico Abreu entered into the podium running order in the early stages of the thirty-lap feature event.

Holding steady on an early restart, Daum would defend the lead from a fast-moving Abreu as most drivers ran a tight inside line around the speedy surface of Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 with McDermand, McIntosh, and Jones keeping pace as Chance Crum, Gavin Miller, Ethan Mitchell, Ryan Timms, and Jade Avedisian raced inside the running top-ten.

Cruising comfortably on a very low line, the three-time POWRi National Midget Champion Zach Daum would see his lead size shrink as Rico Abreu and Cannon McIntosh each found speed after the halfway point as caution would fly around lap seventeen.

Maintaining the front with Daum, Cannon McIntosh would overtake the runner-up spot on the restart while using momentum to overtake Daum for the lead on lap twenty by using a great turn-one inside-line maneuver.

Clutching firm with the lead on the final revolutions would find Cannon McIntosh clinch his first POWRi National Midget League feature victory of 2023 to notch his nineteenth career league win.

“I don’t think I could have had a better car, this was great short-track racing just waiting for guys to make mistake and attack when given the chance” stated a celebratory Cannon McIntosh in the I-55 Pevely victory lane ceremony. Adding “I feel like I haven’t had the best luck here at Pevely but I think we put ourselves in position, kept our heads in it tonight, and was able to get it done tonight.”

One-time leader Zach Daum would place a solid runner-up as Ryan Timms would advance from starting seventeenth to finishing third. Kyle Jones would finish fourth as Rico Abreu rounded out the POWRi National Midget League, running in conjunction with the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota, top-five finishers at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 in Pevely Missouri on Friday Night.
