Belleville, IL. (1/3/2024) Striving seasonally to provide outstanding stand-alone on-track racing action while adding to the appeal of National Midget events, the POWRi West Midget League prepares for 2024 with a seventeen-date schedule planned from March until late October spanning seven venues throughout Oklahoma and Missouri.
Sticking to the guidelines of previous seasons, stand-alone POWRi West events will continue under the same point format, whereas events run in conjunction with the POWRi National Midget League will give bonus points for West members. (Ex. The highest placing West member will receive first place points, with the second-highest West finisher getting second place points, continuing with all West finishers throughout the results within the POWRi West League Championship.)
Continually serving as the POWRi West Midget League season opener while joining the POWRi National Midget the early yearly action of the Eleventh Annual Turnpike Challenge will begin at Creek County Speedway on March 28th then finalize at Port City Raceway for two nights of action on March 29-30.
Ongoing as a fan-favorite mainstay of yearly doubleheader weekend racing with the POWRi National Midget League, the Prelude to the Showdown will kick off at Callaway Raceway on Friday, May 3rd followed by a trip to the ‘Diamond of Dirt Tracks,’ on Saturday, May 4th for the Thirteenth Annual Open Wheel Showdown at Lucas Oil Speedway.
Stand-alone events will populate the seasonal agenda including a trio of visits to I-44 Riverside Speedway on April 27th, July 20th, and September 7th; a pair of visits to Nevada Speedway on April 13th and June 8th; as well as single stops at Port City Raceway on June 22nd and Creek County Speedway on August 24th.
Steeped in tradition the POWRi National & West Midget Leagues will continue the season finale with key honorary events including the Fourth Annual Donnie Ray Crawford Sooner State 55 at Port City Raceway on October 24th as well as the two-day celebration of an industry pioneer with the Twentieth Annual Charlene Meents Memorial at I-44 Riverside Speedway on October 25-26.
