Shane Stewart Shines in Lake Ozark Speedway Victory Lane with POWRi 410 BOSS
Belleville, IL. (7/1/23) Shane Stewart would lead all feature laps on his way emerging victorious in the seventh event for the 2023 season in the POWRi 410 Bandit Outlaw Sprint Series’ return to their home facility of Lake Ozark Speedway to notch his first career series feature victory in the ‘Independence Weekend Celebration’ after a superb chase to the checkers.
Cruising onto the smoothed and maintained track would witness Kerry Madsen set a quick time with a 12.057-second lap time. Kerry Madsen, Gunner Ramey, and Xaveir Doney would each earn an early heat racing victory with Madsen gaining the event high point qualifier award and pole starting position for the twenty-five-lap feature event.
Going into the initial green flag start would find outside front-row starter Shane Stewart speed to the early racing advantage as Kerry Madsen, Gunner Ramey, Garet Williamson, and Joe B Miller battled within the top five.
Maintaining the front of the field for the full feature event, Shane Stewart would throttle his way through lap traffic while holding all challengers at racing bay to earn his first career POWRi 410 BOSS feature victory.
“I was fortunate the track was easy on me tonight after two years off, I guess the old saying is true to never sever ties wherever you go,” said Shane Stewart in the Lake Ozark Speedway victory lane ceremony celebrations. Adding, “I’m so proud of my guys for giving me a great car tonight for Bernie and Besty always having the best equipment, this is truly a blessing.”
Battling intently behind the leader would find Garet Williamson throwing many attempts to overtake for the lead finish runner-up from starting sixth with Gunner Ramey flying into placing in the final podium placement from starting fourth.
Staying in the hunt for the front all feature, Ayrton Gennetten would finish fourth as point-leader Roger Crockett rounded out the top-five finishers for the POWRi 410 Bandit Outlaw Sprint Series at Lake Ozark Speedway’s Independence Weekend Celebrations.
