Belleville, IL. (1/27/22) Never settling on the laurels of the past, three-time POWRi WAR Sprint League champion Riley Kreisel, of Warsaw Missouri, continually strives for more. With new possibilities for on-track achievements a common question remains, can Kreisel become the first Dual-Sprint Champion within POWRi sanctioning as the 2022 season approaches?
Entering rarified air by becoming the first-ever three-time champion by capturing titles in 2018, 2019, & 2020 within the POWRi Lucas Oil Wingless Auto Racing Sprint League, Riley Kreisel would take over the reins as team owner-operator to capture a league-leading four feature victories in 2020 while continually setting the bar for other competitors.
Tied for third on the POWRi WAR All-Time Feature Win List at ten career main-event victories, Kreisel would notch a solid third-place in the season standings for 2021 grabbing one Hot-Lap Top-Time accolade, six Heat Race Wins, two High Point Qualifier Awards, and a Semi-Feature Win on the year. Will Riley rebound within WAR racing to remain atop the championship chase once again?
Never a person to brag about his achievements, when asked about potential championship campaigns Riley stated, “As of right now we aren’t planning on running for any championships. That being said our dedication and work ethic in the shop will not change, we will continue to build championship-caliber cars and let the racing speak for itself, if our team is in contention then a decision would be made based on our team's best interest’s at that time.”
Racing the beautifully wrapped DKR Motorsports, Midwest Pools, Truman Lake Marine and Powersports, Advantech Dyno Service, LisaSellsTheLake.com, Royal Powersports, XXX Chassis, Speedway 410 Racing Engine, #91, Kreisel maintains a focused mind behind the wheel as he plans to also compete in the newly launched POWRi 410 Wing Outlaw Sprint League.
As the yearly quests loom, multiple storylines have started to develop such as will the proven non-wing talents of Kreisel convey to wing sprint racing, and will Riley chase championships in a pair of POWRi Sprint Leagues in 2022? The POWRi 410 Wing Outlaw Sprints season starts at Lake Ozark Speedway on April 2nd with the POWRi Wingless Auto Racing Sprint League beginning at US-36 Raceway on April 8th.
