From POWRi
Tulsa, OK. (10/9/25) Michael Faccinto would find speed on the low line and use a late restart to perfection to earn his first career feature win while battling at Port City Raceway, with the POWRi National and West Midget Leagues, in the JST Motorsports Donnie Ray Crawford Sooner State 55 presented by Hasty Bake; after leading the final six laps of the fifty-five lap feature event honoring an Oklahoman icon.
Speedy on-track excitement with forty-two talented entries in the POWRi National and West Midgets would find Daison Pursley start the action off with quick-time in hot laps of 10.190-second lap as Cooper Miller, Ethan Mitchell, Cannon McIntosh, Kale Drake, and Jacob Denney would notch the heat racing wins with Andrew Felker and Jeff Stasa taking the semi-feature checkers.
Launching the feature field would find the high-point qualifier Cannon McIntosh and Kale Drake led the field as the green flag flew, with Kale Drake gaining the initial advantage on the opening nine laps.
Launching into the lead using a mid-line to high-side slider, point-leader Jacob Denney would hold the front of the field in the early to middle stages of the long feature with Denney and Drake swapping the lead spot a pair of times with Alex Sewell also racing into the lead for a single lap as the field would put on outstanding action behind for nearly every position.
Leading thirty-nine laps, Kale Drake would bobble over a late-race restart while battling with Daison Pursley atop the tricky high-line around Port City Raceway as a low-line running Michael Faccinto kept pace with the top running pair.
Flashing into the lead by using a late-race restart, Michael Faccinto would not waver from a smooth and speedy low line hustle to capture his first career league feature victory by leading the final six laps of the high-paying event as Daison Pursley held on to finish runner-up, as Gavin Miller recovered nicely to round out the podium placements.
“This played out exactly as I wanted it to over the last restart, with Daison and Jacob banging on that treacherous curb up top, I was able to lock my car to the ground on the low line and hold on,” said Michael Faccinto in the Port City Raceway winner’s circle. Adding, “Tough race, tough place, feels great to get this win for Steve and the whole team. This is awesome, now two more nights to try and repeat, I’m ready to go right now.”
Remaining in the hunt all event, Ethan Mitchell would finish fourth with Alex Sewell rounding out the POWRi National and West Midget League top five finishers in the JST Motorsports Donnie Ray Crawford Sooner State 55 presented by Hasty Bake at Port City Raceway.
