From POWRi
Tulsa, OK. (3/13/26) – Jacob Denney picked up his first win of the 2026 season on Friday night at Port City Raceway, charging to victory in Night Two of the 13th Annual POWRi Turnpike Challenge presented by Milestone Home Services. Denney took over the lead on lap thirteen and held off a strong field the rest of the way to earn his tenth career feature win with the POWRi National and West Midget Leagues.
A strong field of forty-eight entries filled the pit area for the POWRi National and West Midgets, with Kevin Thomas Jr. setting quick time in qualifying with a lap of 10.031 seconds. Heat race wins went to Mack Leopard, Hayden Reinbold, Zach Daum, Alex Sewell, Drake Edwards, and Jacob Denney, while Andrew Felker and Jakeb Boxell picked up semi-feature victories.
Denney and Jonathan Beason led the field to green in the feature, with Beason taking the early lead at the drop of the flag. Beason paced the opening twelve laps as Denney stayed close, while Ethan Mitchell, Zach Daum, and Mack Leopard all remained in contention near the front.
Denney made his move on lap thirteen and took over the top spot, then stayed in control through the remainder of the feature despite a race that was interrupted several times through the middle stages. Ethan Mitchell kept the pressure on late, while Beason stayed in the fight to the finish.
“Tonight we started from the pole, but that may have been the toughest feature win of my career while battling with Beason and Ethan all race,” said Jacob Denney in the Tulsa winner’s circle. Adding, “The track was super technical tonight and very fun to drive, being able to drive this car anywhere and holding the speed.”
Kale Drake stayed near the front throughout the feature and finished fourth, while Zach Daum rounded out the top five in Night Two of the 13th Annual POWRi Turnpike Challenge presented by Milestone Home Services at Port City Raceway.
