Waynesfield, Ohio (June 9, 2024)………Bryce Massingill led only one lap of Sunday night’s USAC Midwest Thunder SpeeD2 Midget feature at Ohio’s Waynesfield Raceway Park, but he made it count.

Massingill (Troy, Ohio) trailed racelong leader Ian Creager (Covington, Ohio) on the final lap. Using lapped traffic to his advantage, Massingill made the winning move on the 20th and final lap to earn his third victory of the season.

In doing so, Massingill overtook ninth place finisher Cale Coons (Greencastle, Ind.) as the new series point leader.

Creager took second, just 0.657 seconds behind at the finish line. Tate Martz (Rushville, Ind.) collected a third-place result while Kayla Roell (Dillsboro, Ind.) took fourth and Jakeb Boxell (Zanesville, Ind.) rounded out the top-five.
